Twitch, a streaming platform owned by Amazon mogul Jeff Bezos, has temporarily banned President Trump’s account for “hateful conduct” stemming from footage of the president’s speeches. “Hateful conduct is not allowed on Twitch. In line with our policies, President Trump’s channel has been issued a temporary suspension from Twitch for comments made on stream, and the offending content has been removed,” a Twitch spokesperson told Fox News. A rebroadcast of Trump’s 2015 campaign launch -- when he famously criticized people crossing the Mexican border to illegally enter the United States -- and comments Trump made at his recent Tulsa rally...

An article published several days ago written by an anonymous attendee made the claim that the management for the BOK Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma sabotaged attendance for the campaign rally by President Trump held there last Saturday resulting in thousands of empty seats in the BOK Center and the cancellation of plans for Trump and Vice President Pence to speak to an expected overflow crowd of thousands on a stage set up just outside the arena before speaking at the rally inside.The fire marshal and arena management put attendance at just over 6,000 while the Trump campaign claimed 12,000...

While I rarely use the term “fake news” in my writing, it really does exist. And once it circulates online, it becomes canonized, fixed in the popular mind of the day as if irrefutable truth. Yet it’s becoming more and more difficult to separate truth from fiction when following the news.You’ll read a juicy headline, promising some bombshell information, only to read the article and say, “That’s it?”You’ll see the sensational title of a video only to watch the video and ask, “Where was the shock and awe?”You’ll see a chyron running across the screen, but it doesn’t match the...

South Lawn9:23 A.M. EDTTHE PRESIDENT: Hello, everybody. So we’re going to Arizona. We’re celebrating. We have over 200 miles of wall built. It’s been incredible. Our numbers on the border, as you know, are at just about a record-breaking low. People are not being able to cross the border. The wall is up, because we have more than 200 — we have about 212 miles up of wall. So that’s good.And we’re going to be doing a number of other things. We’re going to be making a speech to young people in Arizona, and we’ll be meeting with some...

Broadcasters continue to find new ways to compromise meaningful coverage of President Trump and his reelection campaign. “Will CNN and MSNBC cover Donald Trump’s 2020 rallies in a way that allows the president to simply state his message to the American people? Or will they attempt to hide and censor him?” asked Scott Whitlock, associate editor of Newsbusters.org, a conservative press watchdog. "If Saturday’s Trump rally in Tulsa, Oklahoma is any indicator, it seems likely the liberal outlets will choose the latter,” Mr. Whitlock wrote. “While Fox News played all 101 minutes — or 100% — of Trump’s campaign kickoff,...

First, a note of caution: This story isn't just a CNN report. Jim Acosta, who is a resistance showboat, shares the byline. So beware. That said, specific details aside, multiple sources and several reports across various news outlets are all pointing in the same direction -- that the president and his team are angry about what happened in Tulsa (I outlined my explanatory factors behind the debacle yesterday), and finger-pointing is well underway. Based on this, Jared and Ivanka have their claws out for Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale: Ivanka Trump and Jared Kushner are "pissed" at campaign manager Brad Parscale...

My colleague Brad Slagger reported on the millions of people who tuned in on Fox News earlier, but now new numbers have come out that blow even those away. Many leftists were giddy over the fact that President Donald Trump’s Tulsa rally didn’t have the attendance that it once did before the coronavirus swept across the globe, but what they didn’t anticipate was how many people were watching from home. Looking at pictures during the rally, you can see that nearly the entirety of the top row was vacant. As it turns out this was partially due to the fact...

President Trump’s rally on Saturday attracted a record-setting audience on TV despite the smaller-than-expected crowd in attendance at the Tulsa, Okla., event. A whopping 7.7 million total viewers tuned into Fox News from 8 p.m. to 10 p.m. EDT during Trump’s remarks, making it the most watched Saturday in the network’s history during that time period, according to early Nielsen data. Trump’s rally also gave Fox News its largest Saturday night primetime audience ever from 8 p.m. to 11 p.m. Trump’s State of the Union address is the only telecast on Fox News in 2020 to outdraw the 9 p.m....

A Joe Biden victory in November would be a "tragic setback" for the country, "The Next Revolution" host Steve Hilton argued Sunday night. Pointing to President Trump's campaign rally Saturday in Tulsa, Hilton asserted during his opening monologue that only Trump is capable of facilitating "long-term change to right the wrongs of the establishment's 50 years of failure." "Here's why a second Trump term is so important. 2016 was a populace revolution and ever since, the establishment have been desperate to get their power back," Hilton said. "Russia, Mueller, impeachment, the bureaucracy, the establishment media…John Bolton with his book, they’re...

VIDEO Have you noticed something missing in almost all reports about Covid-19 (coronavirus) cases lately? It is the death rate. And why would that be? Perhaps because in the midst of all the reporting about the number of cases rising (or people reported testing positive) the actual number of daily deaths has been PLUNGING. As you can see in the Worldometers graphs, the daily deaths have dropped dramatically from April 21 to May 21 to June 21 with a drop of over 50% in just the past month. Yes, the same media that emphasized the daily deaths during April...

Donald Trump’s campaign advisers had it all mapped out: A blowout rally in Oklahoma — coupled with a withering ad launched days earlier questioning Joe Biden’s mental acuity — would finally shift the focus to the elusive Democrat amid the worst stretch of Trump’s presidency.... .. .. But his remarks were lost in a meandering and grievance-filled two-hour speech, which included a lengthy rendition of him drinking water during his West Point commencement speech a week earlier.... .. .. The partly-empty arena was the biggest embarrassment and has received the lion’s share of media attention. But the issues surrounding the...

President Donald Trump’s campaign said that media organizations are spreading false narratives about Trump’s rally in Oklahoma on Saturday after a smaller-than-expected crowd of people turned up, saying that the CCP virus and protesters were the reason why fewer attended.“Leftists and online trolls doing a victory lap, thinking they somehow impacted rally attendance, don’t know what they’re talking about or how our rallies work,” campaign manager Brad Parscale told Fox News on Sunday. “Reporters who wrote gleefully about TikTok and K-Pop [Korean pop music] fans—without contacting the campaign for comment—behaved unprofessionally and were willing dupes to the charade.”Parscale continued,...

Democrat Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez tweeted on Saturday night, following a smaller turnout at the Trump rally in Oklahoma: "Actually you just got ROCKED by teens on TikTok who flooded the Trump campaign w/ fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVID Shout out to Zoomers. Y’all make me so proud" Let’s be clear: TikTok is controlled by the Chinese Communist Party, as we detailed in May here on The National Pulse. The app has removed references to the Tiananmen Square massacre, in line with demands...

The liberal mainstream media can’t get their talking points straight. They want to condemn President Trump for holding such a large rally during the coronavirus pandemic. They also want to lie to Americans that it was a failure and no one showed up.

Ten bucks in the kitty to discuss the million ticket requests.

A significant number of teenagers and K-pop fans used China-owned social media platform TikTok to coordinate placing fake ticket reservations for President Donald Trump's campaign rally in Tulsa, drawing support from Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and other members of the blue-check Twitter brigade. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez cheered on the teens who deliberately interfered in a presidential campaign, by tweeting: "Actually you just got ROCKED by teens on TikTok who flooded the Trump campaign w/ fake ticket reservations & tricked you into believing a million people wanted your white supremacist open mic enough to pack an arena during COVID Shout out to Zoomers....

On June 16, 2015, the future president and his wife rode down the escalator at Trump Tower in New York City and the political world will never be the same. The occasion was the presidential announcement speech of Donald Trump. Previously, Trump had considered running for president in 1988, 2000 and 2012. Each time, the allure of his real estate and media businesses kept Trump away from the race. This time, he realized it was his last chance to run and he seized the opportunity. The announcement speech was made before a packed crowd of boisterous supporters. The speech was...

Truth be told, enthusiasm is actually a stronger indicator of election victory than the ridiculous fake polls that the media puts out there. Enthusiasm cannot be precisely measured, but you can feel it in the excitement of the rally crowd in Tulsa and the pre-rally video clips of people waiting in line and merchants selling Trump gear and apparel. The devil is in the details.  The difference between Trump and Biden is especially stark in the promotion and publicity area. It really helps when the candidate being sold—President — Donald J. Trump — is a tremendous performer. But it’s...

President Donald Trump was the voice of reason in Washington Tuesday as D.C. Democrats were sowing division. Before he signed an executive order on police reform in the Rose Garden, Trump had reached out to the families of black men killed by police or vigilantes and met with them privately. Then Trump signed the order in the Rose Garden flanked by law enforcement leaders who support the administration's reforms. When former President Bill Clinton worked with both sides on an issue, they called it "triangulation." Much credit goes to Tim Scott of South Carolina, the only black Republican in...
