The Biden regime is determined to sabotage President Trump at any cost, even if it means dangerous illegal aliens will continue to invade America. Daily Wire reporter James Lalino broke an explosive story Thursday revealing the Regime is using its final weeks in power to move massive amounts of border wall pieces away from the southern border to be sold off in a government auction. The outlet also captured damning video footage from a U.S. Customs and Border Patrol agent showing unused sections of the wall being carried away on the back of flatbed trucks. This occurred from a section...

The president of Palestine’s National Olympic Committee says he will not shake hands with his Israeli counterpart, or any of their delegation, at Paris 2024 unless they recognise his state’s right to independence. Jibril Rajoub, who has led calls for Israel’s athletes to be banned from international competition amid the war in Gaza, told the Guardian he would not engage with Yael Arad or her colleagues out of principle if they crossed paths during the Olympics. He also claimed the Palestine team have not been given any instructions about how to conduct themselves in the event that they come up...

Im not enjoying the free republic lime I used to. Too many newbies that are trolls, looking for someone to drag into their abyss of self hatred. Theres been a lot of posts linked to posters with no bios, I think admin needs to limit the number of posts or remove those without any bio info.

Vladimir Putin has ordered his security services to track down Russian citizens fighting in Ukraine's military. Speaking at a meeting of the Federal Security Service's (FSB) board today, the Russian leader said those who fought for Ukraine were "traitors" and there would be "no mercy" for them. "I request, as has always been the case in our history, that we do not forget who they are, identify them by name. We will punish them without any statute of limitations, wherever they may be located," he said, according to Politico. He also compared Russians fighting for Ukraine to the Russian Liberation...

We’d like to have the DeSantis of yesteryear; the one fresh from his first Governor’s race who defied partisan worries by championing the environment and other bygone middle-of-the-road-type policymaking. But what it seems we’re getting is the vengeful, angry DeSantis who will be the public official equivalent of a drunk dad returning from a all-night bender itching to kick the family pooch. Sources have told me that DeSantis has implemented a new edict that departures from his administration are on hold until at least Summer, if not next year. Anyone who leaves would be blacklisted, according to sources. After DeSantis...

former collegiate swimmer Riley Gaines has emerged as a powerful advocate for the integrity of women's sports. Poised beyond her years — she's 23 — Gaines has handled everything that the frothing, hate-filled advocate Left has thrown at her because she speaks the truth. She recently spoke before the House Oversight Committee and brilliantly smacked down an idiot Democrat who called her "transphobic." Another female NCAA athlete has been getting some attention for speaking truth to insanity. .. volleyball player Macy Petty spoke about her two biggest concerns regarding trans athletes, the first being a growing number of stolen opportunities...

Haley — the former South Carolina governor and the only woman in the 2024 race — was asked Wednesday night by “The Daily Show” guest host Charlamagne tha God if she was going to wear heels so she can tower over DeSantis at the third GOP debate next week in Miami. “I don’t know. We’ll have to figure that out,” Haley replied...I’ve never hid that from anybody. I’ve always said, ‘Don’t wear ’em if you can’t run in ’em,’ so we’ll see if he can run in ’em.” Trump’s super PAC, Make America Great Again Inc., also trolled DeSantis Wednesday...

DeSantis is below 20%, a drop-off from summer polling in the state. In yet another early state in the Republican presidential race, Ron DeSantis is in a deep hole. A new poll of 650 likely Nevada Republican caucusgoers from CNN shows the Florida Governor with 13% support, which is just 1/5 of Donald Trump’s 65%. This number is well outside the margin of error of +/- 5.3 percentage points, and represents a drop-off from polls this summer that showed DeSantis over 20% in the state. DeSantis is stronger with some voters than others. He boasts support from 36% of “non-Trump...

Former President Donald Trump anticipates Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) campaign will soon run out of funds and the Florida governor will exit the presidential race. Trump took to Truth Social on Tuesday to share his prediction, likening his foe to “a wounded bird falling from the sky.” “He has proven to be a terrible and inept candidate who even fought Social Security and MediCare,” Trump wrote before calling DeSantis’s struggles a “beautiful thing to watch.” “He will SOON be out of money and dropping out of the race for President,” Trump said. “After having single handidly gotten him elected Governor,...

Presidential candidate Ron DeSantis hasn't been doing all that well in the polls compared to his rival, Donald Trump, and according to jokes that have followed to the Florida governor for roughly a year, he may be seeking a "boost" in the form of high-heeled shoes. This recently caught the attention of former President Trump, who reposted a popular meme of DeSantis supposedly wearing high-heeled boots on a recent clip with Bill Maher, meaning there's a good chance Trump's next lowbrow line of attack will involve mocking DeSantis' footwear. Here's how DeSantis' shoes entered the national Republican presidential conversation. Why...

Russia’s parliamentary leaders plan to consider exiting an international treaty banning nuclear tests as a means of retaliation against Western support for Ukraine. “We are talking about the withdrawal of ratification of the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban Treaty,” State Duma Speaker Vyacheslav Volodin wrote Friday on social media. “The situation in the world has changed. Washington and Brussels have launched a war against our country. Today's challenges require new solutions.” Volodin embraced the idea after Russian President Vladimir Putin signaled his interest in the exit during his address to the Valdai Discussion Club. The Kremlin chief also positioned the withdrawal...

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis responded to Donald Trump's recent attack on former White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany, saying that it was "really, really bad." "Donald Trump, even his greatest supporters have acknowledged, had a tough time picking good people. He had a lot of terrible personnel decisions, people like Jerome Adams, his Surgeon General...so we know there was a tough record, but Kayleigh was one of the greatest selections. She did a fantastic job," DeSantis, who is also a 2024 Republican presidential candidate, said while appearing on the NH Journal podcast on Friday. DeSantis added: "She's a Harvard-trained lawyer,...

The The Egyptian Ministry of Tourism and Antiquities said that a recent excavation of burial shafts resulted in the finding of the tombs, along with more than 20 sarcophagi, toys, wooden boats, masks, and more.

Rudy Giuliani’s law license has been suspended. In a ruling handed down by the New York State Supreme Court Thursday, the state’s Attorney Grievance Committee successfully moved to have the former New York mayor’s license suspended.

Trump and the Trump campaign in connection with Trump’s failed effort at...

President Donald Trump appeared to narrowly avoid falling over as he walked up to the podium at a campaign rally in New Hampshire on Friday evening. Video shows Trump flailing his arms while steadying himself a few feet from the lectern after disembarking from Air Force One. "Looks like he almost tripped," Liz Willis, a Right Side Broadcasting network announcer, remarked during a livestream of the event. "I'm sure he will make a joke out of that one in just a moment." Trump's rally in New Hampshire is his first campaign event since accepting the Republican Party nomination for a...
