New ads running in legal journals are warning lawyers: “Don’t lose your law license because of Trump.” After the 2020 election, legal watchdogs, outraged at some of their colleagues, filed scores of ethics complaints against lawyers who used their skills in questionable ways to help former President Donald J. Trump stay in power. And in the past few years, the groups have had some notable successes, securing judgments that have led to pro-Trump lawyers like John Eastman and Rudolph W. Giuliani having their law licenses deactivated. Now, one of these groups — the 65 Project — is taking a more...

I was watching and re-watching hilarious videos of Hezbollah members having their scrotums blown off by 1990s technology as beepers in their front pockets detonated, when my phone blew up with news of a bomb allegedly found in a car near the Nassau Coliseum. That's where Trump is giving a speech tonight on Long Island.FACT-O-RAMA! At least 12 members of Hezbollah were sent to their 72 virgins sans testicles. This is to be Trump's first big rally since a Democrat tried to shoot him on his own golf course, marking the second attempt to kill him. Or the third attempt,...

As we approach the 2024 election, states across the country are removing thousands of noncitizens from their voter rolls.Yet amid a surge of millions of immigrants across our borders, Democrats seem intent not only on undermining these state-led efforts, and leaving the election system vulnerable to potentially unprecedented noncitizen participation, but on threatening those acting to protect our republic from foreign election interference.The Biden-Harris administration has also led opposition to the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, requiring that voters provide documentary proof of citizenship, and enacted Executive Order 14019, under which federal authorities are allegedly working to register and...

Proving once again that she is not only a left-wing hack, but a truly dreadful and lazy reporter, we now know CNN’s Dana Bash spread foreign disinformation as it relates to the more than two dozen bomb threats that hit Springfield, Ohio. Springfield, which was a town of only 58,000 a few years ago, is now a town closer to 80,000 since the Harris-Biden administration sent some 20,000 Haitian migrants there. The results, as you might expect, have been catastrophic. What else could the results be when you import 20,000 unvetted people from the third world who have had no...

The Trump Rapid Response team emailed out numerous times the Democrats and media used “incendiary rhetoric” against former President Donald Trump.“Thankfully, the would-be assassin was stopped by the heroic action of law enforcement — but make no mistake, this psycho was egged on by the rhetoric and lies that have flowed from Kamala Harris, Democrats, and their Fake News allies for years,” wrote the team.The email has over 50 examples.I’m going to screenshot the email, but link a few more below the pictures.

We've been spending a good bit of time covering the incredibly violent and dangerous rhetoric the Left has been spreading for years now since there has now been a second attempt on Trump's life. You'd have thought the first attempt on his life when he was actually shot in the head might influence them to maybe tone down the dangerous rhetoric but ... no. Suppose if all you really care about is staying in power and not violence in your country it doesn't matter who is getting hurt, especially if it's not your candidate in danger, right? This clip though...

In a campaign event at a fire station in Shanksville, Pennsylvania President Biden was photographed wearing a Trump 2024 MAGA hat. White House senior deputy press secretary Andrew Bates credited the President for "his skillful avoidance of a potential hostage situation. He was surrounded by MAGA extremists. He could've easily been killed at any moment. Using the wits that many Republicans insist he doesn't have, he grabbed a MAGA hat and put it on his head. The MAGA folks were mollified and allowed him to leave unharmed." Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) demanded "an FBI investigation to see if...

The Trump campaign is not playing around as the corporate media desperately attempts to absolve Democrats and their enablers (including themselves) of blame for the latest assassination attempt on the 45th President. As The Gateway Pundit reported, a second attempt was made on President Trump’s life, just two months after he came within a centimeter of being killed in Butler, Pennsylvania by a Democrat donor named Thomas Crooks. Shots were fired at the 45th president’s golf club in West Palm Beach on Sunday afternoon at roughly 1:30 pm as he was playing golf with real estate investor Steve Witkoff. The...

Waters was joined by Duval County Public Schools Superintendent Dr. Christopher Bernier to announce five recent arrests of students for threats made to schools, reminding parents and students that making such threats can have life-changing consequences. All three were arrested Tuesday.

Mar 12, 2002 (AP Online via COMTEX) -- U.S. officials received a warning as early as 1995 that Islamic militants were plotting to attack an American nuclear site, but did not pass along the information to the agency that oversees nuclear facilities or to the plants themselves, The Associated Press has learned. The warning came in police interrogations of convicted terrorist Abdul Hakim Murad and from a computer seized in the Philippines from Ramzi Yousef, mastermind of the 1993 attack on the World Trade Center. Both men were linked to Osama bin Laden and his al-Qaida terrorist network, and...

A teenager accused of killing four people at Apalachee High School in Barrow County was previously investigated for threats about a shooting, the FBI Atlanta office said late Wednesday. Colt Gray, 14, was charged with murder after Wednesday’s shooting, according to investigators. He was not charged after an investigation last year. In May 2023, the FBI’s National Threat Operations Center received several anonymous tips about online threats to commit a school shooting, the FBI said in a statement. The threats didn’t identify a school or when it would happen, but they contained pictures of guns. Investigators tracked the post to...

A federal judge on Tuesday sentenced a man to 13 months in prison on charges connected to a threat to kill a congressional staff member and more than 12,000 phone calls to dozens of congressional offices, both in Washington and home districts across the country. The defendant, Ade Salim Lilly, pleaded guilty in May to two federal counts — interstate communications with a threat to kidnap or injure, and repeated telephone calls — and plea documents said Lilly at times used vulgar and harassing language. In one incident, Lilly reportedly told a congressional staffer: “I will kill you, I am...

Biden’s Gestapo DOJ has threatened legal action against the small towns of Thornapple and Lawrence in northern Wisconsin for their decision to abandon electronic voting machines in favor of hand-counted ballots. The DOJ’s threats come after Thornapple and Lawrence officials opted out of using electronic voting systems, citing concerns over their reliability and potential for manipulation. Many believe that hand-counted ballots provide a more transparent and trustworthy alternative, ensuring that every vote is accounted for without the risk of technological errors or tampering. The towns’ alleged failure to provide accessible voting equipment for individuals with disabilities during the April election...

Cheryl Fritze, director of News Operations for Michigan News Source, said Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is “in cahoots” with Governor Gretchen Whitmer and Attorney General Dana Nessel when it comes to conducting the state’s elections and intimidating county election coordinators. In a recent video, Benson said she would go after local election officials who do not certify election results despite the possibility of legitimate legal concerns about the results. “[I]f someone were to violate the law and not certify the election at the local level, we will come for you,” Benson said in a video published by...

‘I think our prosecutions have made clear what we think about people who try to interfere with the peaceful transfer of power,’ Garland said.Attorney General Merrick Garland boasted on Friday how his office has prosecuted nearly 1,500 Americans for protesting the 2020 election, warning others they may face similar lawfare should they raise any concerns about the administration of the upcoming November election. Speaking at a press briefing, Garland essentially said the Jan. 6 prosecutions should serve to remind Americans what happens if they raise questions about an election. “I think our prosecutions have made clear what we think about...
