Sa’ad bin Atef al-Awlaki, the newly anointed leader of Al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), has issued a chilling call to arms targeting the President of the United States, Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and other top administration officials, including Elon Musk and Cabinet members. The Islamic terrorist, already wanted by the U.S. government with a $6 million bounty on his head, released a 34-minute video on Sunday, filled with explicit threats and calls for bloodshed inside the United States, the New York Post reported. Al-Awlaki, speaking in Arabic but quickly translated and circulated on social media, issued a...

JD Vance pushed back against an anti-Trump social media personality Saturday after he criticized a post the vice president made on X. The clash between Vance and Brian Krassenstein began when Vance wrote, "Killing cartel members who poison our fellow citizens is the highest and best use of our military." Vance made the remark following a U.S. military strike against an alleged drug-laden Venezuelan boat in the southern Caribbean. Officials said 11 suspected Tren de Aragua narco-terrorists were killed on Tuesday. When Krassenstein responded that "killing the citizens of another nation who are civilians without any due process is called...

You all support off-label, untested, and irreversible hormonal "therapies" for children, mutilating our kids and enriching big pharma. You're full of **** and everyone knows it.

The success of President Trump's crackdown on DC crime is impressing the majority of Americans. Vice President JD Vance observed "this town averaged one murder every other day for the last 20-30 years, which means in two short weeks the president and his team have saved six or seven lives. People who would have been killed on the streets of DC are now living, breathing, and spending time with their families because the president had the willpower to say no more, we're not going to give the streets of DC over to vagrants and robbers and murderers." A recent Harvard...

Like all good flimfam artists, President Trump is a master of misdirection. As Americans grow increasingly skeptical of his inflationary tariffs, deficit-swelling tax cuts and senseless push to gut federal agencies and research, he floods the zone with a firehose of falsehoods to shift media and public attention elsewhere. Take his grandstanding plan to dispatch U.S. troops to Chicago and other cities, as he’s already done to Los Angeles and Washington, D.C. It’s a classic “wag the dog” ploy with a Trumpian twist: Instead of fabricating a foreign military crisis to divert voters from their domestic woes, he’s invading America’s...

Vance called it "shocking" for "so many left-wing politicians" to attack the idea and added that "no one thinks prayer is a substitute for action." "We pray because our hearts are broken and we believe that God is listening," he wrote in a post on X. The vice president also responded to former White House Press Secretary Jen Psaki, who said, "prayer is not freaking enough." "Of all the weird left wing culture wars in the last few years, this is by far the most bizarre. 'How dare you pray for innocent people in the midst of tragedy?!' What are...

Vice President JD Vance said Russian strongman Vladimir Putin has made several concessions in his discussions with President Trump over the war in Ukraine — including vowing to respect the territorial integrity of Ukraine after the fighting ends. “They’ve recognized that they’re not going to be able to install a puppet regime in Kyiv, and importantly, they’ve acknowledged that there is going to be some security guarantee to the territorial integrity of Ukraine,” Vance told NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday. On the possibility of Ukraine having to give land to a country that forcibly seized it, Vance didn’t appear...

Abandoned by his father to a troubled single mother; eventually raised by grandparents. He is then recruited from an Ivy league law school by shadow figures, a specific billionaire and a network of interests. He changes his name, writes a book about his life story, and with the support of the aforementioned – who eventually pays for a strategic campaign, becomes a Senator for 2 years before being quickly elevated into position in the White House.Many people reading that paragraph are familiar with the life story of Barack Hussien Obama. However, that paragraph is not describing Obama, that paragraph describes...

As President Volodymyr Zelensky of Ukraine headed into a high-stakes meeting in the Oval Office this week, Vice President JD Vance warned him to “behave.” “Mr. President, so long as you behave, I won’t say anything,” Mr. Vance recounted to Fox News in an interview broadcast on Wednesday, adding that the Ukrainian leader chuckled in response. It was not the first time that Mr. Vance had addressed Mr. Zelensky during a critical diplomatic summit with words more commonly spoken to toddlers than heads of state. In February, during a highly contentious Oval Office meeting with President Trump, Mr. Vance blasted...

I'd love a serious thoughtful conversation about what you think would make the best ticket in 2028. The 3 people I see being able to lead the ticket are listed. If you have others please tell me and why. Tulsi: Someone willing to do what she believes is right regardless of the fall out. While I don't agree with her on everything, I know she's an honest person willing to do what she believes is right. And a veteran. Vance: Amazing debater and strong conservative values. Can stand up to the media and make them look stupid. Rubio: Before he...

The National Guard troops are expected to stay in the city for 30 days, but the deployment could be extended if Trump and Congress deem it necessary. Trump can only authorize the deployment for 30 days without Congressional approval. Vice President J.D. Vance and other Trump administration officials on Wednesday met with National Guard troops at Washington, D.C.'s Union Station, which Vance claimed was because of the station's high crime rate. President Donald Trump declared a crime emergency in the district last week, and deployed 800 D.C. National Guard troops to the capital to help patrol the city and reduce...

Democrats insanely scream at both VP Vance and Secretary Hegseth as they walk through Union Station in DC. This further proves why the Democrats can never have power again. Look at how they act. It’s ridiculous.

President Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will hold a meeting together on Monday afternoon before they are joined by European officials traveling to Washington for key talks on the future of the Russia-Ukraine war. Two sources told NewsNation’s Libbey Dean and Kevin Bohn that Trump and Zelensky will hold the initial meeting, which will also be attended by Vice President Vance. That will be a rerun of the participants from an Oval Office meeting in February that went badly off the rails as Vance and Trump criticized Zelensky over his handling of the war, and for not being more...

While on a mission to conduct diplomatic discussions in the United Kingdom earlier this month, US Vice-President JD Vance and his children went fishing with British Foreign Secretary David Lammy. Both Vance and his children broke the law because they didn't have a fishing license. Lammy called the lack of a license "an administrative error, which I made up for it by purchasing it later." Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif) called for an investigation, saying "this latest example of lawbreaking by a member of the Trump Administration must not go unpunished. That the Vice-President of the United States of America would...

Vice President JD Vance has added fuel to the GOP's investigation into former President Bill and First Lady Hillary Clinton's ties to former financier and convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. During an appearance on Fox News' Sunday Morning Futures, Vance told host Maria Bartiromo that 'We know Clinton allegedly went to Epstein's infamous 'island 26 times, 28 times.'The vice president also added that it was 'totally appropriate' for House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer (R-Ky.)

Washington is “done with the funding” of Ukraine’s war against Russia, JD Vance, the US vice-president, has said, as Europe scrambles to build a united defence before in-person negotiations between Presidents Trump and Putin.Speaking in an interview after an emergency summit with European and Ukrainian officials, co-hosted by David Lammy at Chevening, the foreign secretary’s mansion in Kent, Vance said Americans were fed up with paying towards the cost of the war.“What we said to the Europeans is simply, first of all, this is in your neck of the woods. This is in your back door,” he told Fox News....
