“So I’ve talked on this show many times, and I thought that Trump was viewed by his supporters as a theological figure, not a secular figure. And of course, him being within an inch of having his head blown off is, to them, further proof that they were right, that God is protecting him,”

Saturday, shortly after former President Donald Trump evaded an apparent assassination attempt, NBC News national security correspondent Frank Figliuzzi expressed concerns that Trump supporters may seek revenge for the attempt to take the former president’s life. Figliuzzi, who regularly labels the right as a threat to public safety, said it could come in the form of Trump supporters taking on anti-Trump protesters at the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee next week.

Critics on social media dragged President Biden over video footage showing what appeared to be a small showing of supporters greeting the president’s motorcade in the deep blue city of Atlanta, where he held a fundraising event and delivered Morehouse College’s commencement speech. “Crooked Joe Biden – dazed and confused, as usual – shuffles down the short stairs in Atlanta ahead of his day of pandering. He ignores questions,” RNC research posted Saturday as Biden landed in the city. “If a presidential motorcade passes through town but absolutely nobody cares – did it really pass through town?” RNC Research asked...

Supporters of former President Donald Trump gathered together in the Bronx on Saturday to show their support for the former president ahead of his upcoming visit to the city. Trump’s campaign announced on Friday that the former president would be holding an event at Crotona Park in the South Bronx on May 23. In one video posted to X, Trump supporters could be seen walking through the streets holding a banner with the words, “The South Bronx for Donald Trump” as the people chanted, “Trump, Trump, Trump.

Actor Robert De Niro said Tuesday on ABC’s “The View” that former President Donald Trump and his supporters were filled with anger and hate. Co-host Sunny Hostin said, “Some people have criticized you, because you’ve been pretty open about your dislike for Mr. Trump and the dangers he poses to democracy. You once famously said you’d like to punch him in the face. But right now he’s leading in the polls in five battleground states. Any advice to the Biden campaign or the voters? What are you thinking?” Heavily censored, De Niro said, “Well, I think I don’t understand why...

MSNBC contributor Claire McCaskill said Monday on “Deadline” that there were so many weird things about the supporters and rallygoers of former President Donald Trump. McCaskill said, “Yeah, and there are so many things that are weird about the people who have this undying loyalty to Donald Trump. There is two categories. There’s the category of the cowardly Republicans who are afraid not to be for Donald Trump publicly, even though behind his back, they think he’s a horrible person, a horrible leader, and a horrible, horrible president. Then there’s the bucket of people who really believe in this guy.”...

On Wednesday, the latest edition of The Economist/YouGov poll came out, and the takeaways include some rather bad news for pro-Hamas agitators on college campuses, or, as the poll puts it, "pro-Palestinian." There are also quite the telling findings about how those who plan to vote for President Joe Biden and his fellow Democrats feel about the conflict and our ally in the Middle East. Close to a majority of voters, at 49 percent, have heard "a lot" about the arrest of pro-Hamas agitators on college campuses, so they're at least staying informed on the issue. A majority of overall...

Adult film star Stormy Daniels said she’s receiving a new wave of harassment from supporters of former President Trump who “believe that they are being patriotic” after a new documentary was released about the hush money she took for an alleged affair with the former president. “I believe that they’re more like suicide bombers this time around, where they honestly truly believe that they are being patriotic and that I am the devil,” Daniels told the hosts of “The View” on Thursday. Daniels said Trump’s supporters have become “more vicious” because they have “been encouraged and commended” by the former...

If your print copy of The New York Post was slightly delayed yesterday morning you can blame the “peace” brigade. The same people who have spent the last few months blocking bridges and stopping New Yorkers getting to work yesterday morning targeted one of this paper’s printing works in Queens. The plant also prints The Wall Street Journal, Newsday, USA Today and the New York Times. The protestors seemed especially angry about the last of these. Though I’m tempted to say that they deserve each other. In the early hours of the morning these protestors lay across the road and...

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon slammed Democratic messaging about MAGA, or “Make America Great Again,” Republicans on Wednesday, telling Democrats to “grow up” and “listen” to supporters of former President Trump. “When people say MAGA, they’re actually looking at people voting for Trump and … they’re basically scapegoating them,” Dimon told CNBC’s “Squawk Box.” “I don’t like how [Trump] said things about Mexico … but he wasn’t wrong about some of these critical issues, and that’s why they’re voting for him,” Dimon continued. “And I think people should be a little more respectful of our fellow citizens.”

Former FBI agent Peter Strzok said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that he believed supporters of former President Donald Trump were “engaging in threats of violence,” while supporters of President Joe Biden were not prone to violence. Strzok said, “My biggest concern is that we have the presumptive Republican nominee for president who has and continues to engage in calls for violence from his supporters. Look, there’s an interesting data point here. Just shortly after the Michigan Supreme Court indicated they weren’t going to take this up, Donald Trump took to Truth Social and lauded their decision, talked about how they...

Hundreds of police officers searched the properties of Hamas members and followers in Germany on Thursday morning following a formal ban on any activity by or in support of the terrorist group. The German government implemented the ban on Nov. 2 and dissolved Samidoun, a group that was behind a celebration in Berlin of Hamas’ Oct. 7 attack on Israel.

Switzerland announced Wednesday it is readying legislation to ban the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas and its supporters. A proposed law will be rushed to parliament aimed at providing the necessary legal tools for Bern to counter any Hamas activities or support for the organisation in Switzerland, Swissinfo reports. “The Federal Council decided to draft a federal act banning Hamas, considering this to be the most appropriate response to the situation that has prevailed in the Middle East since October 7,” the government said in a statement. “The act will provide the federal authorities with the necessary tools to counter any...

MSNBC contributor and Washington Post columnist Eugene Robinson said Tuesday on “Morning Joe” that “a whole lot of people in Iowa are going to Hell.” The panel discussed a new CBS News/YouGov poll showing that MAGA voters trust former President Donald Trump more than anyone else, including family members and clergy. Partial transcript as follows: JOE SCARBOROUGH: We’ve been hearing, Gene, for so long that Iowa voters are deeply religious, (adopts mocking voice) oh they’re truly Christian Evangelicals. Oh, if you go to Iowa, then you love Jesus so much! MIKA BRZEZINSKI: Come on! SCARBOROUGH: No, we’ve been hearing that...

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) urged former President Trump and his supporters not to interfere with the legal process as it plays out in Georgia following Monday night’s indictment. “As a nation built on the rule of law, we urge Mr. Trump, his supporters, and his critics to allow the legal process to proceed without outside interference,” the top Democrats in Congress wrote in a joint statement issued late Monday. Their request comes after Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis (D) announced the fourth indictment against Trump since April. The 19 co-defendants...

NBC “Meet the Press” host Chuck Todd said Sunday on “Today” that he believed former President Donald Trump has “convinced” his supporters they have not been losing elections. Host Willy Geist said, “Chuck, good morning. It’s good to see you. So, former President Trump had that town hall meeting in New Hampshire this week that was broadcast on CNN, alarmed a lot of people in the country, not least of which, a lot of members of the Republican Party, who say if that’s what we’re putting out there, if that’s what we’re gonna run with, we’re not gonna win independence....

In 1984 on the 40th anniversary of D-Day, Ronald Reagan ascended the windswept stage of Pointe Du Hook, Normandy to commemorate one of the greatest sacrifices in the defense of freedom the world had ever seen. “We in America have learned bitter lessons from two World Wars,” Reagan declared. “It is better to be here ready to protect the peace, than to take blind shelter across the sea, rushing to respond only after freedom is lost. We’ve learned that isolationism never was and never will be an acceptable response to tyrannical governments with an expansionist intent.” Nearly 40 years after...

Maryland Republican Gov. Larry Hogan, unable to run for another term due to term limits, is holding two fundraisers on Wednesday to look for support and fund future political activity amid speculation of a possible 2024 presidential bid.

Rep. Kevin McCarthy, the Republican leader in the House, declared early Wednesday morning that the GOP would flip the chamber – even though final results were not yet tallied – and now faces an angry caucus and the possibility of ​his becoming speaker in jeopardy. “When you wake up tomorrow, we will be in the majority and Nancy Pelosi will be in the minority,” McCarthy said in a speech to supporters shortly after midnight. “We are expanding this party. The American people are ready for a majority that will offer a new direction that will put America back on track,”...
