Following a phony document purporting to be President Trump announcing General Flynn as his running mate a series of articles followed. In these articles the General was ready to spill the goods on house Democrats who were pedophiles and a host of other filthy crimes. Approximately six articles were posted. Who and to what purpose?

RACINE, Wis. — Former President Donald Trump heaped praise on ex-presidential rival Vivek Ramaswamy at his Tuesday afternoon rally in Wisconsin — pleasing supporters who want the fiery entrepreneur on the 2024 ticket. “If I gave it to Vivek to do, he’d pull it off,” declared the presumptive Republican nominee, referring to his administration’s tariff negotiations with French President Emmanuel Macron. “He’s gonna be with us in some form,” said Trump of Ramaswamy as he repeatedly referenced and spoke to the former presidential candidate during his speech. He’s a “smart guy.”

Former President Donald Trump said he has had pilots — who are not “conspiratorial” or “crazy” — tell him they have seen the inexplicable, making the remark during a Q&A about aliens during an appearance on Logan Paul’s Impaulsive podcast. “I want to talk to you about aliens. So UFOs, UAPs, the disclosure we’ve seen in Congress recently — it’s confusing and upsetting a lot of Americans because something’s going on. There’s something happening. There are unidentified aerial phenomena in the sky. We don’t know what they are. Do you?” Paul asked Trump, who carefully answered the question.

In the past couple of years I have noticed there is a complete lake of regard for other posters on this site. Not only that but swearing seems to be tolerated. In the past day I have been called gay, a lair, that I am talking out of my *** and I am full of ****. Do we even have to go into the fighting on any thread about Ukraine or Russia. Even hard facts from multiple sources no longer seem to matter. Instead it is whoever can come up with the snarkiest reply.

Elon Musk’s social media platform X will stage a town hall with former President Donald Trump — three years after he was suspended from the site in the wake of the Jan. 6 Capitol riots. The presumptive Republican nominee for president, who was convicted Thursday in connection with a hush-money payment to porn star Stormy Daniels, will answer submitted questions during the livestream event, which will also be broadcast in a partnership deal with cable channel NewsNation. The social media company is also planning a similar town hall with Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, who is running for president as an...

The past several years, I have heard and/or read of how bad a businessman President Donald Trump is and has been during his life. I went online to look for examples and it seems the stories that he is a bad businessman are from leftist outlets - CNN, NPR, MSNBC, the New Yorker, NYT, and so on. (Side note - does Forbes swing to the left?) So I need assistance from my fellow Freepers and from Freeperland. Is there an unbiased source of information concerning President Trump's wealth, how he obtained it, how he has grown his wealth, etc? Thank...

A federal appeals panel ruled Tuesday that Donald Trump can face trial on charges that he plotted to overturn the results of the 2020 election, rejecting the former president’s claims that he is immune from prosecution. The decision marks the second time in as many months that judges have spurned Trump’s immunity arguments and held that he can be prosecuted for actions undertaken while in the White House and in the run-up to Jan. 6, 2021, when a mob of his supporters stormed the U.S. Capitol. But it also sets the stage for additional appeals from the Republican ex-president that...

As Gateway Pundit readers know, TGP”s Cristina Laila obtained another batch of documents from a defamation lawsuit related to Jeffrey Epstein on Monday. The explosive new documents, which were reviewed by Laila, reveal there are alleged sex tapes of Bill Clinton, Prince Andrew, and Richard Branson. Moreover, Crooked Hillary sent her henchman to intimidate one Epstein victim. But this information is being whitewashed by the corporate press. Instead, they are pushing a disgusting Epstein smear, which is totally false. The smear involves “revelations” in the Epstein documents that President Trump allegedly sexually assaulted several of the infamous pedophile’s sex slaves...

[cut] Ransome later recanted the allegation in an email to journalist Maureen Callahan, according to the records. “I have spoken to my family at some length this morning and I would like to retract everything I have said to you and walk away from this,” the October 2016 email states.

Five Republican presidential candidates will debate in Miami tonight.

Sununu, who's repeatedly said he'll make an endorsement in the Republican race later this year, has been teaming up with a number of the White House hopefuls on the campaign trail in New Hampshire, which holds the first primary and second overall contest in the GOP presidential nominating calendar. Asked in an interview with Fox News Digital if his full day with DeSantis was any kind of signal, Sununu emphasized that "it's a signal that Ron's making a commitment to New Hampshire." Later, joining DeSantis in a Fox News interview in Concord, Sununu reiterated that "the race is wide open....

Republican presidential candidate Ron DeSantis says Donald Trump’s recent statements on the abortion issue show the former president’s “values” are out of step with Iowa GOP voters. Trump said during an interview with NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the six week abortion ban DeSantis signed into law this spring was a terrible mistake. “Donald Trump may think it’s terrible. I think protecting babies with heartbeats is noble and just and I’m proud to have signed the heartbeat bill in Florida and I know Iowa has similar legislation,” DeSantis says. “I don’t know how you can even make the claim that...

'You're going to end up stone cold dead at the border.' Florida’s Governor says the United States has every right to execute people crossing the Mexican border if they seem to be members of “drug cartels.” During a recent “tele-town hall” with supporters, Gov. Ron DeSantis said the American government is “entitled” to take such action. “Some of the things that we’ve already highlighted as part of our agenda, our border policy, I’m the only one that’s willing to send the military to the border and to use deadly force against the Mexican drug cartels,” DeSantis said. “We’re entitled to...

'A selection of documents and answers remain unclear.' Gov. Ron DeSantis visited New York City for the annual commemoration of the 9/11 terror attacks 22 years ago. And the Florida Governor and 2024 presidential candidate is calling on the current President to make public information that is currently classified about how those attacks came to happen. “And now, decades later, we as a nation still owe full transparency and accountability to these grieving families. Yet too many politicians have broken past promises to them, and that is wholly unacceptable,” DeSantis said. DeSantis called on President Joe Biden “to publicly commit...
