Over Bogus Epstein Smear

This week, the legacy media’s obsession with dragging President Donald Trump into the orbit of Jeffrey Epstein stooped to a shameful new low. The Wall Street Journal embarrassed itself with a hyped-up Trump-Epstein “bombshell” that amounted to nothing more than a birthday card that Trump supposedly sent to Epstein in 2003. Curiously, the evidence in this bombshell is under wraps, but Trump denies writing and threatened to sue over the bogus report. Attorneys have now filed that lawsuit. This latest smear attempt is just another chapter in the media’s ongoing effort to tie Trump to Epstein, despite the lack of evidence and Trump’s documented decision to ban Epstein from Mar-a-Lago.

Excellent news!! Go git 'em, President Trump!!!

The WSJ has surrendered any reputation it had left. Emma Tucker should be fired, and so should the journalist that sourced this smear.

When I told a sibling the WSJ was a leftist rag just a couple of years ago incredulity ensued. Hopefully they see this and realize they've been duped, and for quite a few years. Nothing would please me more than to see these bastions of leftist bilge go down in flames (literally, of course).

On Bo Snerdley's radio show this morning he really made me laugh. If President Trump keeps winning these media lawsuits, his Presidential Center/Library in Florida "is going to be bigger than Disney World, but without the Rat"!

Gee, seems if you think you had the story on Trump, you'd check it out eight ways to Sunday and then reverify it again. And then make the big reveal a birthday card? Big whoop. And remember, suing people to Trump is like a hobby. Some folks collect stamps, Trump sues people.

WSJ messed with the wrong guy this time. Here’s hoping they lose EVERYTHING and are forced to close up shop. Then, I’ll never have to see Peggy Noonan’s picture again. Over the last few years, they’ve turned into a left-wing rag.

FTA: One of the co-authors of the WSJ report, Joe Palazzolo, previously wrote for a publication called Main Justice, which was founded by Mary Jacoby, who happens to be the wife of Glenn Simpson, the Fusion GPS founder behind the debunked Steele Dossier and the Russia hoax. Both Simpson and Jacoby previously worked at the Wall Street Journal themselves, which tells you everything you need to know about the political rot festering in that newsroom.i Sic 'em.

We call them libtards because a) they're unabashedly liberal (lib) and b) they're incapable of learning (tard). Despite copious evidence of what happens when you FAFO with Trump, they continue to insist on trying to smear him with long-debunked fabrications, and pay the price for doing so. Well, old Rupert has deep pockets. I'm sure he'll pony up a hefty sum to make Trump's suit go away.

Surveillance video showed an illegal alien from Honduras kidnapping an elderly woman in Harris County, Texas, before locking her in a closet and repeatedly sexually assaulting her. Jose Armando Carcamo-Perdomo, 22, an illegal from Honduras, was arrested this week after he grabbed a woman and locked her in a closet in a trailer home on Elderberry Lane off Highway 90 in Houston. The unidentified victim was a female masseuse who traveled from New York to Houston for work. She was driven across the country to Texas and when she arrived in Houston, her Chinese passport was taken away from her. Carcamo-Perdomo locked the victim in a boarded up closet

Jason Chaffetz has delivered a devastating exposé that should terrify every American who values his or her constitutional rights. Writing in the New York Post, the former House Oversight Committee chairman pulls back the curtain on what may be the most comprehensive assault on American democracy we've witnessed in our lifetime—and it's happening with our own tax dollars. Chaffetz revealed that the Biden administration didn't just weaponize federal agencies against political opponents; it orchestrated an elaborate data-theft operation that would make authoritarian regimes jealous. As Chaffetz explains, "Federal entities outsourced unlawful data collection to politically sympathetic partners. Rather than directly amassing data,

California is a beautiful place. But it has had horrible leadership in the Democratic Party for years, from folks like LA Mayor Karen Bass to Gov. Gavin Newsom. Instead of being concerned about things he should be focused on in the Golden State, he's already spending a lot of his time gearing up for a run for president in 2028, doing things like attacking his likely competition in Vice President JD Vance. Having such leadership has made it hard for the people who have had to live there and deal with things like the Pacific Palisades fires or the crime in Los Angeles.

Health insurance premiums for Americans buying coverage through Affordable Care Act marketplaces will spike by a median of 15 percent in 2026, which is the largest increase in more than five years. For millions of families, this means premium payment increases of over 75 percent as enhanced tax credits expire. What we're about to witness is the impact of government interference in sectors where it has no constitutional authority to operate. This crisis was baked into the ACA from day one. When Barack Obama promised Americans they could keep their doctors and that his plan would make healthcare affordable, he was selling a fantasy

One year after the shocking assassination attempt on President Donald Trump's life in Butler, Pennsylvania, CNN continues to dodge the truth by refusing to acknowledge that the president was shot in the ear. Despite clear statements from Trump himself and medical confirmation from his longtime physician, CNN’s refusal to report the facts exposes their ongoing bias and political agenda. During a broadcast on CNN, far-left journalist Touré claimed that Trump "supposedly" got shot in the ear, saying that there was never any confirmation from his doctors. One week after the assassination attempt, President Trump’s team released a statement

Does Janet Yellen speak with Scott Bessent? You’d think there’s some collegiality among secretaries of the treasury, past and present. Not here. Ms. Yellen is still sour over Mr. Bessent overhauling her agenda at the Treasury Department. She also hit Bessent for torching her China policy, and that’s when Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent came in with a bulldozer: "She left us with the largest deficit to GDP in American peacetime history… I couldn't even tell you what Secretary Yellen’s China policy was, aside from consuming beer and mushrooms."

Today, they proved that under this administration, those aren't just empty words. Every single person from the United States whom Venezuela was unjustly holding hostage is coming home. They're no longer Nicolás Maduro's political pawns. But it wasn't Rubio or Trump who made the initial announcement. It was El Presidente himself, El Salvador's Nayib Bukele, arguably one of the United States' greatest allies. As it turns out, he's been helping our country negotiate this deal for months.

During a heated exchange on CNN, Democratic strategist Julie Roginsky and anchor Abby Phillip went berserk after Scott Jennings pointed out a simple, inconvenient truth: Under President Donald Trump, the price of eggs has dropped — just as he promised. It all started when Jennings highlighted the economic success of Trump’s policies. “The core CPI forecast was 3%. It came in at 2.9. For the five months of Trump’s administration, inflation has matched or beat expectations,” he said. He added that the economy is “booming with new investments” and that the administration has reason to be “bullish on America.” Jennings pointed to Trump’s push to make the 2017 tax cuts permanent

The U.S. Department of Homeland Security deported several illegal immigrants, including those convicted of serious crimes like murder and child rape, to a tiny land-locked nation in southern Africa. DHS spokeswoman Tricia McLaughlin announced the move in an X post late Tuesday. "A safe third country deportation flight to Eswatini in Southern Africa has landed— This flight took individuals so uniquely barbaric that their home countries refused to take them back," she wrote. "These depraved monsters have been terrorizing American communities, but thanks to [President Trump] (and) [DHS Secretary Kristi Noem], they are off of American soil."

The Republican Party doesn’t make it easy. With these razor-thin majorities, nothing will be easy. And one way to blow it is not over the Epstein files. Please, we’re not losing the midterms over that, but granting amnesty to illegal aliens could do it. What the hell even is this? With the Senate trying to pass President Trump’s rescissions package, which codifies $9 billion in cuts—a test of sorts for another run with deeper reductions—the House Republicans felt it was incumbent upon them to hash out an immigration compromise with some of the worst people. Rep. Maria Elvira Salazar (R-FL) might as well be a Democrat,

A few donors told ABC News they knew they couldn't match Cuomo's donors, but believed a small jolt might give Zohran Mamdani a final push in the Democratic primary.

Former President Joe Biden was “sharp as a tack,” “as sharp as ever,” and the “best” version of himself “ever” while in office — until he wasn’t. After months of claiming Biden was perfectly competent to not only remain in office but run for reelection, Democrats ousted Biden(snip). But just because Biden may have stepped out of the spotlight doesn’t mean the American people have forgotten that there was a mentally incapacitated president ‘running’ the show.That’s why Republicans have called in several Biden White House aides to get to the bottom of what really went down.

A new poll suggested that democratic socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s sheen may already be wearing off among voters. Mamdani’s support appears to have dropped 14 percentage points from less than a week ago, based on a previous poll, while Republican candidate Curtis Sliwa’s surged 12 percent. Mamdani shocked the political world by winning the Democratic primary, defeating former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo. He now faces Sliwa and Cuomo, as well as current New York City Mayor Eric Adams, in the general election. Cuomo and Adams are both running as independents, assuming they each decide to stay in the race.

A federal court on Tuesday stopped the Bureau of Land Management from capturing thousands of wild horses, saying the agency failed to explain whether the roundup would maintain a “thriving natural ecological balance” on public land in southwest Wyoming. The federal 10th Circuit Court of Appeals in Denver returned the case to the U.S. District Court in Wyoming, where Judge Kelly Rankin had sided with the BLM. “Since BLM admitted that it did not consider ecological balance, [its] plan failed to consider an important aspect of the [Wild Free-Roaming Horses and Burros Act],” Circuit Judge Timothy Tymkovich wrote for a three-judge appeals panel.
