    South African politician Julius Malema, the leader of the radical Economic Freedom Fighters (EFF) party, responded to President Donald Trump’s claims about “genocide” Wednesday by reiterating calls to kill white farmers. Earlier that day, Trump had shown visiting South African President Cyril Ramaphosa video of Malema leading rally chants of “Kill the Boer!”, “Kill the farmer!”, “Shoot to kill!”, and other incendiary slogans. Ramaphosa tried to argue that Malema’s rhetoric did not represent the government’s policies, but Trump countered that South Africa had passed a law allowing expropriation of land without compensation, that it had racially discriminatory laws, and that...

    Representative Ilhan Omar (D-MN) claimed Monday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” that “xenophobic and racist” Republican voters respond with campaign donations to GOP members and petition signatures when Republican lawmakers call her out. Co-host Pamela Brown said, “I want to follow up with something else, because we recently had one of your Republican colleagues, Brandon Gill, on the show. He said that America would be better off if you were arrested and deported. He also said that there was audio of you advising what he said are illegal immigrants here from Somalia on how to evade ICE detection. I want...
  • Democrat Amy Klobuchar Melts Down as Kash Patel Responds to ‘False Accusations,’ ‘Grotesque Mischaracterizations’

    Democrat Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) melted down during her line of questioning at the confirmation hearing for Kash Patel, President Donald Trump’s nominee for Director of the FBI, as Patel blasted “false accusations and grotesque mischaracterizations.” An icy Klobuchar began her line of questioning by offering numerous incomplete quotes, asking Patel time and time again if he made those statements. Patel repeatedly told her he did not have the information in front of him and sometimes pointed out that she was offering what seemed to be partial or incomplete statements. At one point during the line of questioning, Klobuchar expressed...

    Tom Homan, President Trump’s “border czar,” defended the immigration raids this weekend and pledged to continue working toward carrying out the administration’s enforcement goals in a Monday interview. In an interview on Fox News’s “America Reports,” Homan pushed back on criticism that “these are everyday people, these are families that are being attacked and dragged out of their homes.” “I don’t think we arrested any families,” Homan said when asked to respond to that criticism. “We’ve arrested public safety threats and national security threats. Bottom line.” “Look, President Trump won the election on this one issue: securing our border and...

    Virginia Democrat Terry McAuliffe briefly addressed the photo showing him violating the federal mask mandate while aboard Amtrak in July, claiming he is “very good” about wearing his mask but adding that everyone can “always do better.” Over the summer, a passenger caught McAuliffe, who is vying to be governor of the Old Dominion for the second time, aboard a train at New York City’s Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station on July 29 without a mask on. A sign in the background can be seen reading, “Face masks must fully cover the mouth and nose and secure under the...

    Representative John Ratcliffe tweets a statement after President Trump announces his nomination for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI): There has been some speculation that ODNI Dan Coats needed to step aside because he was refusing to comply with the declassification process.  It’s worth waiting to see if that assumption is accurate, or if the speculation is unfounded.  However, there is validity to the speculation based on the structure of how executive declassification is done.Declassification of intelligence is a process, and each person -within the executive branch- inside the intelligence agency must agree to the process.  Technically...

    NEW YORK, NY – Today, the Democratic National Committee filed a wide-ranging, partisan civil lawsuit in federal court against the Trump Campaign, WikiLeaks, and the Russian Government. In response, Donald J. Trump for President, Inc. notes that this frivolous lawsuit is a last-ditch effort to substantiate the baseless Russian collusion allegations by a nearly-bankrupt Democratic Party still trying to counter the will of the people in the 2016 presidential election. This civil lawsuit is completely without merit and will be dismissed in due time.“This is a sham lawsuit about a bogus Russian collusion claim filed by a desperate, dysfunctional, and...

    President Donald Trump hit back Sunday at thousands of liberal women who marched in Washington and other cities around the country the day before to protest him being elected president, taunting them with a simple inquiry: “Why didn’t these people vote?” Taking to his social media platform, the 45th president of the United States slammed far-left celebrities like Ashley Judd and soon-to-be senior citizen Madonna, who were at the forefront of Saturday’s march. Spicer’s first WH press conference made jaws drop globally; media still stinging, say he went too far Trump tweeted: “Watched protests yesterday but was under the impression...

    Mexico "regrets" Ford's decision to scrap the plan to build a plant in the central Mexican state of San Luis Potosi, the Economy Ministry said on Tuesday, adding that it has made sure Ford will reimburse any costs and expenses from the state government to facilitate the now defunct investment. In a surprising statement on Tuesday at 11am ET, in an act of goodwill toward the president-elect, the second largest U.S. automaker said it will scrap the $1.6 billion factory in Mexico and will invest $700 million at a Michigan factory, after President-elect Donald Trump had harshly criticized the Mexico...

    Donald Trump is facing a firestorm of controversy after his comments about Sen. John McCain's war record. "He's not a war hero," the presidential candidate said at the 4th annual Family Leadership Summit in Iowa yesterday. "He's a war hero 'cause he was captured. I like people that weren't captured." Many of Trump's GOP rivals have slammed his comments and called for him to back out of the 2016 race. Trump said on "Fox and Friends Weekend" today that those calls are "total nonsense" and pointed out that he's still leading in the polls. "This was picked up by the...
  • RACIST… And Trump FIRES Back in an EPIC WAY! (Hillary calls Trump a racist - Trump responds)

    07/15/2015 12:48:31 PM PDT · by Enlightened1 · 99 replies
    Donald Trump is a conservative billionaire running for President. Unlike Hillary Clinton, Trump has earned his money the honest way. And he knows what affects American businesses, and the harm caused by illegal immigration. Now, Hillary – who wanted to jump on the media bandwagon this week – has accused Trump of racism for his strong stance against illegal aliens. While most politicians would respond quietly (if at all), Trump FIRED BACK with both barrels via a Facebook post. And it is awesome! Here is what The Donald said: Failing candidate Hillary Clinton, who is desperately trying to hold on...

    On Thursday, the Washington Post published an article by Steven Mufson and Juliet Eilperin titled “The biggest lease holder in Canada’s oil sands isn’t Exxon Mobil or Chevron. It’s the Koch brothers.” The article’s first paragraph included this claim: The biggest lease holder in the northern Alberta oil sands is a subsidiary of Koch Industries, the privately-owned cornerstone of the fortune of conservative Koch brothers Charles and David. The theme of the article was that the Keystone Pipeline is all about the Koch brothers; or, at least, that this is a plausible claim. The Post authors relied on a report...

    We have listened to President Obama's comments about the verdict in the Zimmerman Case. People are focusing on this quote: "Trayvon Martin could've been me 35 years ago." To focus on this one line misses the nuances of the President's message, which includes comments about how African Americans view the Zimmerman Case in the context of the history of racial disparity in America. For more than a year, we have been listening to the conversation about this case – from voices on every side – and we have become very sensitive to the racial context that surrounds this case. We...

    The Obama administration is postponing an award for an Egyptian activist who rallied worldwide attention against forced “virginity tests” on female protesters because of anti-American and anti-Semitic comments discovered on her Twitter account. The State Department announced earlier this week that Samira Ibrahim would be among 10 recipients of the International Women of Courage award presented by Secretary of State John Kerry and first lady Michelle Obama on Friday. But State Department spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said Thursday the U.S. would hold off on awarding Ibrahim while officials investigate the tweets, which include support for attacks against U.S. diplomatic installations and...

Krauthammer asked that the apology — which even included an endorsement for Krauthammer’s favorite Major League Baseball team, the Washington Nationals — be made public, and Pfeiffer obliged: Charles, I take your criticism seriously and you are correct that you are owed an apology.
