Outlaw, folk hero, renegade - That mugshot
makes Trump an American martyr. Why is
it that deranged liberals who loathe the
ex-president help him at every turn?

Inside that Fulton County jail, Donald J. Trump, weighing in at 6-foot-3-inches tall and 215 pounds, became a newly minted anti-establishment figure. His mugshot is the stuff of Warhol: Instantly iconic Americana that will be reproduced and repurposed for decades to come. In the immediate, his enemies have handed him the greatest gift imaginable.This image has turned a multi-billionaire former president into a folk hero, a renegade, an outlaw. And America loves nothing more than an outlaw, as Trump well knows. Within hours, he was selling official merch stamped with the image: mugshot coffee mugs ($25), beer cozies ($15 for a set of 2), t-shirts ($34) and bumper stickers ($12

Friday on FNC’s “Hannity,” Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz argued President Joe Biden should be for a special counsel investigation into the alleged wrongdoing that has overshadowed his presidency.
Dershowitz argued if he were innocent, a special counsel investigation would clear it up.
“You know, Professor, I’m very curious,” host Sean Hannity said. “I don’t remember or recall — we probably have talked about, I just don’t remember off the top of my head, but this whole issue of Burisma. Let me give you the timeline. October 2015, we know from the reporting of John Solomon that it became the official policy after interagency collaboration for the U.S. to give
The White House counsel’s office held a meeting with a top aide to Special Counsel Jack Smith and an FBI agent around two months before Smith charged former President Donald Trump for allegedly mishandling classified documents.
Smith’s top aide, Jay Bratt, met with Caroline Seba, deputy chief of staff for the White House counsel’s office, on March 31, according to White House visitor logs, the New York Post reported. Danielle Ray, an FBI agent in the Washington, D.C., field office, also joined Bratt and Seba at the meeting.
Hours after former President Trump was arrested in Fulton County on charges that he allegedly tried to overturn the 2020 election, Sen. John Kennedy (R-LA) brutally scorched President Joe Biden in a "savage" takedown. During an interview on Fox News, Kennedy did not hold back in his rant about the weaponization of the government and the sleaze of what he penned as "Hunter Gate."
Kennedy began by comparing Biden's constant lecturing of the "injustice of privilege" to being lectured about gun safety by Alec Baldwin.
He then questioned the shady business dealings conducted by Hunter Biden, addressing the significant amount of money the president's son from foreign countries.
Former President Donald Trump has raised several million dollars in the 48 hours since he was booked and released from a Fulton County jail on Thursday evening.
POLITICO reported that the campaign’s fundraising was powered largely by merchandise sales that featured the former president’s mugshot. His campaign had threatened to “come after” anyone who used the image to raise money — even though the photo is public domain. The report said that in the first 24 hours after the mugshot’s release, the campaign had raised $4.18 million — a sum similar to what he raised after his first indictment — and has since hit $7.1 million.
A Canadian lawmaker has revealed a 'game-plan' is being devised on how to respond if the US becomes a far-right, authoritarian regime, following the presidential election.
Foreign Affairs Minister Mélanie Joly says Canada is keeping a close eye on who is going to be America's next leader, the National Post reports.
'We are certainly working on scenarios,' Joly told a Montreal radio station in French during an interview this week. 'In general, there is our game plan, precisely to be able to manage what could be a rather difficult situation.
House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) ordered the U.S. Capitol flags to be flown at half-staff to honor the 13 troops killed two years ago in President Joe Biden’s disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.
“Two years ago today, we tragically lost 13 brave servicemen and women in Afghanistan,” McCarthy said in a statement online. “I have directed the flags at the U.S. Capitol to be lowered to half-staff in honor of these American heroes.” (X photos) McCarthy also posted the following list of the names of the 13 servicemembers killed:
Sgt. Johanny Rosario Pichardo, 25

DailyMail.com revealed this week how the Biden administration was considering slashing alcohol guidelines to just two drinks per week.
Dr George Koob, America's alcohol czar, said that evidence had increasingly indicated no amount of alcohol was good for human health.
Yet every year, studies hint that when consumed in moderation, there may be mild benefits to drinking alcohol. The theories range from booze acting as a way to de-stress to health benefits gained from consuming the antioxidants in wine, but none of these have ever been proven definitively.
We put the question of whether any amount of alcohol can be beneficial to six experts —
Joe Biden told reporters on Friday that Special Counsel Robert Hur has not interviewed him yet and has no interest in speaking with him.
“Are you planning to sit for an interview with the special counsel looking into the [classified] documents matter?” a reporter in Lake Tahoe asked Joe Biden.
Biden implied the special counsel has no interest in interviewing him.
“There’s no such request and no such interest,” Biden said. WATCH: (Video) Special Prosecutor Robert Hur is having to negotiate with Biden’s lawyers and the DOJ for a *possible interview* with Joe Biden
In yet another sign of the Biden Administration’s determination to control, censor, and spy on American social media users, the draft of a proposed deal between Chinese-owned TikTok and the Biden administration shows the latter requesting extraordinary authority over the platform.
The proposed deal, outlined in a 100-page draft obtained by Forbes, would give the U.S. government the power to examine TikTok’s servers with no notice — something that could potentially allow the government to spy on American users.In a sign of the administration’s preoccupation with censoring social media users, the agreement also reportedly gives the government the power to veto any changes to TikTok’s content moderation policies.

Globalists do not want former President Donald Trump to win because he is the “biggest threat to their power,” Donald Trump Jr. told Breitbart News Saturday, adding that “people are waking up to what’s going on.”
“He’s the biggest threat to their power, right?” Don Jr. said when asked why these elites are so against his father.
“These guys want someone they can control. They want someone that when they call and say jump, the president says how high. They know they don’t have that with Trump and it allows him to actually fight for the real Americans that he got into this thing [for] to begin with,” he said.
I have a reason for hope, for all of America. Our founders defined a profound national identity for us to be and become, in our Declaration of Independence.
They said:
1. We are created beings, living in a miraculous world.
2. Each of our unique lives is equally significant in the eyes of our Creator.
3. No government can claim authority over us as long as we adhere to the laws we consent to be governed by.
They also provided a toolkit for maintaining this national identity.
Right now we need to be looking in that toolkit for every peaceable remedy to defeat

A family is desperately seeking answers after FBI agents busted down the door and killed their relative in a pre-dawn raid last week.
The FBI is refusing to tell a grieving mother why they showed up in armored vehicles at 6 am last Wednesday and fatally shot her son.
According to WBBJ, FBI agents showed up at a residence in Henderson, Tennessee to serve a man named Theodore Deschler an arrest warrant when things turned deadly.
A neighbor told WBBJ he woke up at 6 am after he heard a loud bang.
New Hampshire Secretary of State David Scanlan (R) is consulting with the state attorney general to determine if the U.S. Constitution’s Fourteenth Amendment empowers him to keep former President Donald Trump off the 2024 presidential ballot.
As secretary of state, Scanlan oversees New Hampshire’s first-in-the-nation presidential primary that will take place at the beginning of 2024. However, Scanlan has caught wind of scholars’ recent arguments that the Fourteenth Amendment’s Disqualification Clause prohibits Trump from being on the presidential ballot.

In a recent revelation, GOP presidential candidate Hirsh Singh has brought to light controversial details concerning Vivek Ramaswamy’s political affiliations and voting history. Documentation obtained from the Franklin County, Ohio Board of Elections suggests that Ramaswamy is not a registered Republican but, rather, a registered “Unaffiliated” voter.
In an X post (formerly Twitter), Singh wrote, “Per documentation received by Vivek Ramswamy’s Franklin County, Ohio Board of Elections Vivek is not a registered Republican, but Registered Unaffiliated and never voted in a Republican Primary in his entire life.”
In a now widely noted Tablet article, David Garrow pointed out Obama’s fantasies of sexual perversion with men. To that, AT’s Jack Cashill added the dishonesty in Obama’s autobiography regarding the question of his birth and his claim to being the author of his first book. What’s also missing from Obama biographies is his identification with Islam. Obama is, after all, the bearer of two Arabic names, with the second that of the Prophet Muhammed’s grandson.
Carlos Santana is a rock music legend and an absolutely fantastic guitar player, one of the greatest of all time. Since he’s Latino, you’d think he would have a few extra layers of immunity from the rabid online cancel culture mob, but alas, all of that is forgotten when you dare to make a scientifically accurate statement that bursts the LGBTQ community’s bubble of delusion. The “T” in “LGBTQ” stands for transgender, by the way.
According to Breitbart News, the media is now slamming Santana as “anti-transgender” because he stated the clear biological truth that “a woman is a woman and a man is a man” during one of his recent

President Joe Biden was serenaded with boos and jeers when he stepped out in public on Friday while on vacation in Lake Tahoe, and the look on his face was absolutely priceless.
The deeply unpopular leader has spent most of the month of August away from the White House, padding the number of vacation days that he has taken since his inauguration, which recently topped an entire year, this time staying at the opulent $18 million home of billionaire Democrat donor and climate alarmist Tom Steyer.
A video that has gone viral on social media captures the moment that the elderly Biden realizes that he isn’t nearly as beloved

Trump: The Leader of a Faction or a Party?
14 replies
Throughout my time campaigning for public office, over the course of several Republican Party primaries I ran against an incumbent, as an incumbent, and for an open seat. The last GOP primary I contested was for our party’s nomination for Michigan’s 11th Congressional District in 2002. Fortunately, I was successful in every one of these primaries and, later, in the ensuing general elections. What helped make these latter general election victories possible was the grace and magnanimity of my defeated GOP primary rivals, each of whom supported my campaigns against Democrat opponents.

Portland's Predictable Doom Loop

The people elected and selected to run Portland, Oregon, are like kids who get their first car and never think to change the oil. The city is led by a cadre of ardent leftists who thought they could just rev the engine, ignore maintenance, and see the city magically run itself. Instead, they’ve driven the City of Roses into a Doom Loop.
At one time not so long ago, Portland leaders turned the sleepy town into a progressive hub for the creative class, spending billions on 19th-century light rail Choo Choo trains to convey bus riders to their planned utopia. The more the plans failed, the more the planners planned,

bill, sparking override showdown with

Raleigh, NC— North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper vetoed a sweeping Republican elections bill Thursday that would end a grace period for voting by mail and make new allowances for partisan poll observers.
In a video message, the Democratic governor accused legislative Republicans of using their slim veto-proof majorities to execute “an all-out assault on the right to vote,” which he said has nothing to do with election security and everything to do with their party keeping and gaining power. The bill would make voting more difficult for young and nonwhite voters who are are more likely to vote absentee and less likely to elect Republicans, he said.
Former television host Bob Barker has died at the age of 99.
