It appears former President Donald Trump and Gov. Doug Burgum’s (R-ND) relationship is strengthening, as the former president said he hopes to have the governor as a “very important” part of his administration. Some in Trump’s orbit are even talking about him as a potential running mate or cabinet secretary, Breitbart News has learned. During his victory speech after the Iowa Caucuses on Monday, Trump had high praise for Burgum, calling him “one of the best governors in the country” and a “solid guy.” Trump emphasized that Burgum had supported him in 2016 and 2020 before declaring he hopes to

I saw bits of him over the summer. Mostly poli ads. I was really impressed. I am pleased PDJT is consulting him. He could be a real asset.

Don't know him. Sounds like a good guy But he doesn't bring much to the electoral table. Hope he's looking at him for cabinet.

It's a mixed bag on Burgum, if you talk to people in ND. He doesn't live in the governor's mansion. Guess with his money, he doesn't have to. We'll see what develops. I hope Trump picks his team more wisely this go around.

An overwhelming majority of New Hampshire Republicans back former President Donald Trump in his assertion of absolute immunity from prosecution of presidents for their actions while in office. The result, in a new Marist poll, comes as Trump has assembled a 14-point polling lead in New Hampshire, according to the RealClearPolitics average, and indicates voters are embracing at least some of his courtroom claims while fending off four criminal cases. Voters were asked 'Do you think Donald Trump should have immunity from criminal prosecution for actions he took while he was president?.

But it turns out that was just a teaser for far more weirdness and incoherence in the afternoon. I don't know how they can trot this guy out before a bipartisan group of mayors.

Dailymail.com was asked to leave Nikki Haley's meet-and-greet with voters in New Hampshire on Friday morning and was told it is banned from covering her future campaign events. The ban came after DailyMail.com published a story Friday morning exclusively reporting that Haley falsely denied cheating on her husband when she was accused of engaging in two extramarital affairs during her 2010 South Carolina gubernatorial campaign. The Haley campaign didn't respond to requests for comment on the story even though DailyMail.com gave them 24 hours to do so.

As you may recall, during the 2020 election, left wing groups used millions in ‘Zuckbucks’ to take control of local polling offices. Everyone concedes that this made a difference in the election, including people on the left. They admitted it in a Time Magazine article about how they ‘fortified’ the 2020 election. Even though many states have taken steps to address this issue in order to keep these folks away from the 2024 election, they are now trying to do it again by going at it on the federal level by working with FEMA. These people have access to tons of data and demographics. If they are allowed to do so,

Scott wrote his letter to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen and Financial Crimes Enforcement Network (FinCEN) Director Andrea Gacki about reports that the Treasury Department provided materials to financial institutions instructing them to search and filter Americans’ banking information using “politically charged terms” such as “Trump,” “MAGA,” and other words. This includes terms that would indicate the legal purchase of a firearm, the purchase of religious books, and subscriptions to media containing “extremist views.”

US Attorney General Merrick Garland made a stunning admission about Special Counsel Jack Smith’s cases against Trump during an interview with CNN. Recall that Garland appointed Jack Smith as special counsel as a hired gun to jail Trump shortly after the former president announced his 2024 White House run in November 2022. Garland admitted to election interference when he told CNN that he agrees there should be a ‘speedy trial’ as Trump seeks to delay the two trials set to begin on March 4 and May 24. “Garland said he agrees with special counsel Jack Smith’s assertion that the “public interest requires a speedy trial”

Jimmy Kimmel spent most of his opening monologue on Thursday’s show attacking Trump.

Any evaluation of the Biden administration's policy towards the Iranian regime (and towards the Palestinians) reveals a failure: the deadly Western miscalculation that "being nice" will be reciprocated. In the culture of the Middle East, that simply does not work. Instead, one is looked on as a gullible sucker or juicy "mark," like a jolly drunk at a strip club. As Osama bin Laden pointed out, especially for his region, "When people see a strong horse and a weak horse, by nature they will like the strong horse."

The intrigue over who Donald Trump will pick to be his vice president on the 2024 Republican ticket he's presumed to be leading is growing. A recent report placed Rep. Elise Stefanik, a moderate House member from New York, near the top of the list. Then there's Nikki Haley, who has reportedly been under consideration for a while, even as she remains in the primary race. On that front, when the Trump campaign had a chance to put the Nikki Haley issue to bed once and for all, they chose not to, instead only ruling out Vivek Ramaswamy. What that says is that the former president's closest advisors

A hospital system in Denver warned local lawmakers this week that it is on the brink of collapse due to financial pressures created by the migrant crisis. Denver Health recorded some 20,000 visits from 8,000 Central American migrants in 2023 for everything from dental emergencies to mental health counseling, according to the Denver Post. Denver estimates more than 36,000 illegal immigrants, most of whom are Venezuelan, have arrived in the city since December 2022. Roughly half of those migrants have decided to put down roots in the city. The influx created a $2 million loss for the hospital system last year, following a $35 million loss

The World Economic Forum “aims to guide and strengthen political will and mutual cooperation,” the pontiff told them, and “provides an important opportunity for multi-stakeholder engagement to explore innovative and effective ways to build a better world.” The process of globalization has by now “clearly demonstrated the interdependence of the world’s nations and peoples,” the pope said, and thus has “a fundamentally moral dimension.”
