Most people use their allotted sick time for an unexpected illness, sick child, or medical procedure and don't see the utilization of that time as having the potential to be an act of civil disobedience or protest against the government or their employer. However, one group rising in membership plans to use their sick time for precisely that — taking a page out of organized labor's handbook and using their collective action to expose and potentially even directly impact what they view as systemic injustices against the working class of the United States. Known as "The People's Sick Day," the online
White House flips script on Hunter Biden's
profanity-laced rant against Trump's immigration policies replies
profanity-laced rant against Trump's immigration policies replies
The White House called out Hunter Biden after he slammed the Trump administration’s immigration policies in a recent web series interview. The younger Biden echoed a popular Democratic talking point during a heated rant while appearing on Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan.
"Am I not supposed to feel for someone? Am I going to be like all these Democrats say, ‘You have to talk about and realize that people are really upset about illegal immigration?' F--- you. How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned?" Biden later added.
Hunter Biden really walked smack into it when he “crashed out” during a YouTube interview with Andrew Callaghan that was released today. Now, when you look at the data, Hunter is of course completely wrong: statistically, whites commit the fewest crimes…by far. And, if you were to remove all the blacks and Hispanics included in those “white” crime statistics, that number no doubt falls drastically.
However, in one sense, Hunter is right on the money: White men are significantly more likely to commit a crime…if you’re a white man like a Biden.
If you’re a “white man” with the last name Biden,
The Trump administration and Harvard University are appearing Monday in federal court for a major hearing in the legal battle over whether the administration can strip billions in funding from the school without going through regular processes.
Both parties are seeking to avoid a trial by asking Obama-appointed Massachusetts Judge Allison Burroughs for a summary judgment in their favor.
It is unclear whether Burroughs will grant summary judgment in a landmark legal battle over the extent to which the federal government can influence colleges and universities.
Trump Derangement Syndrome found a resurgence with “UNEARTHED” video of the future president judging models, drowning out coverage of a predecessor’s alleged “treason.”
Likely surprising no one, corporate media had yet to have its fill of demonizing President Donald Trump. Despite the chief executive calling for the release of grand jury transcripts to advance transparency regarding the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, MeidasTouch dredged up decades-old footage of the then-businessman at a modeling competition with “participants as young as 14-years-old.”
A clip from the Elite Modeling 1991 Look of the Year contest,
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries is facing an ethics complaint for “improperly inserting himself” in a proceeding.
The New York Democrat was accused of “clear corruption” after he called on federal district judges to remove acting U.S. Attorney Alina Habba from her position. Habba, a former legal spokesperson for the Trump campaign, has been serving as the acting U.S. attorney for the District of New Jersey and is still awaiting Senate confirmation.
Habba charged Rep. LaMonica McIver, D-N.J., with obstructing Homeland Security agents after the lawmaker allegedly assaulted law enforcement officers outside of an immigration detention facility in Newark back in May. McIver has pleaded not guilty
A twice-deported illegal alien, convicted of killing 19-year-olds Anna Varfolomeeva and Nicholay Osokin in the sanctuary state of California, has been taken into federal custody after serving just three and a half years in prison for vehicular manslaughter.
Varfolomeeva and Osokin, who were dating, were killed in November 2021 in Orange County, California, by Oscar Eduardo Ortega-Anguiano who was drunk, high, and driving 100 mph on the 205 freeway at the time. The teens were burned alive in the crash.
The following year, Ortega-Anguiano was convicted on two counts of vehicular manslaughter while drunk and sentenced to just 10 years in prison for killing Varfolomeeva and Osokin.
California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) issued a demand Monday for the “immediate withdrawal” of all soldiers from Los Angeles, after the Pentagon announced that the U.S. Marines would be pulling out of the city.
In a statement, Newsom said:
The women and men of the California National Guard deserve more than to continue serving as puppets in Trump and Stephen Miller’s performative political theater. There was never a need for the military to deploy against civilians in Los Angeles. The damage is done, however. We, again, call upon them to do the right thing and end the militarization once and for all.
In the famous words of Ed O’Neill from Wayne’s World 2, “people need to be entertained.” Unfortunately, today’s late night comics didn’t embrace this motto and broke hard left in favor of partisan politics, with one of the worst offenders being Stephen Colbert.
If Colbert had simply stuck to the formula followed by the late great Johnny Carson of “Tonight Show” fame, it might have saved him. The simple trick was as follows: Don’t get political.
Carson was the master. Beloved by all. Republicans, Democrats, and independents alike tuned in with gratitude. Because he had only one goal in mind: To make us laugh.
In the annals of stupid and poorly run schemes, the California High-Speed Rail project ranks among the worst. Its future, even a dramatically scaled down one, has become ever more precarious since the Trump administration’s Department of Transportation rescinded $4 billion in funds already granted the project. Governor Newsom has already filed a suit to reverse the action, but he can’t legislate away the reality that this project is an abject embarrassment. When voters approved $9 billion in 2008, Rail estimated it would cost $33billion and start running by 2020 – just for the San Joaquin Valley portion. The cost has since ballooned to $130 billion; no stretch is operational.
WASHINGTON — Former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg failed to replace outdated air traffic control systems while in office — with his agency instead shelling out tens of billions of dollars on a DEI agenda, according to federal spending records and airline industry insiders.
In one meeting, Buttigieg — who is said to be eyeing a 2028 presidential run — told industry executives that air traffic control upgrades would just allow them to fly more planes, “and so why would that be in his interest?” sources said.
Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey (D) is planning to file an appeal after he lost the Minneapolis Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party’s (DFL) endorsement to a democratic socialist challenger in a process that he argues was significantly flawed. (Snip) But the outlet reported that the process was the subject of significant confusion and scrutiny as counting the first round of voting took almost two hours to complete. Fateh led that round with about 44 percent of the vote to Frey’s roughly 31.5 percent, leaving them as the only two candidates in contention for the endorsement. Technology issues led to the slowdown, party officials told
El Salvador President Nayibe Bukele responded to Hunter Biden’s insane rant against Trump’s immigration policies.
Hunter Biden went off on a profanity-laced tirade during an interview with Channel 5 with Andrew Callaghan and at one point asserted if he were president, he would invade El Salvador and kidnap prisoners.
The Trump Administration is deporting some of the most dangerous illegal alien killers and rapists and Hunter Biden is angry about it and lashing out.
President Trump deported illegal alien criminals – FROM El Salvador – to El Salvador’s notorious CECOT prison.
The leading official who presided over the U.S. Naval Academy’s use of racist affirmative action admissions policies is being replaced, the Pentagon announced on Friday.
According to a Defense Department press release, Marine Corps Lt. Gen. Michael J. Borgschulte has been nominated to replace Navy Vice Adm. Yvette Davids as the superintendent of the renowned military school. Davids — who was nominated to her now-former position by President Joe Biden — has since been reassigned to be the deputy chief of Naval Operations for Operations, Plans, Strategy, and Warfighting Development.
"What I can assure the American people is that this investigation [into Hillary Clinton's homebrew server] was done competently, honestly, and independently. No outside influence of any kind was brought to bear." — FBI Director James Comey, July 2016. We now have proof that what Comey told the American people in the lead-up to the 2016 election was categorically false. The Senate Judiciary Committee released a bombshell report today, revealing that Comey's FBI "failed to fully investigate Hillary Clinton’s use of a private email server and mishandling of highly classified information during her time as Secretary of State."
If anyone's shocked at that revelation,
As we reported, Hunter Biden did a curse-filled interview with YouTube personality Andrew Callaghan. The interview was released on Monday and had some wild moments. He did that typical Democrat thing where he tried to argue how important it was to have "immigrants" to do our work for us. He also had an anger-filled rant about deportations.
But he wasn't done yet. That was just a warm-up to how he ripped into the Democrats and how he thought they had mistreated his father. First, he went after George Clooney, whose remarks about Joe Biden after the debate helped to undo him. "F**k him and everyone around him,"
Over the weekend two illegal aliens with lengthy and violent arrest records shot a Border Patrol agent in the face. The attack happened in New York. One of the illegal aliens was previously arrested for attempted kidnapping in Massachusetts and stabbing, yet was released under dangerous sanctuary policies. [Tweets, video]
On Monday, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and Border Czar Tom Homan held a press conference in New York City, vowing to “flood the zone” against sanctuary jurisdictions and those harboring illegal aliens.
Here is what a treasury secretary is supposed to do: work to demystify what is being done with Americans' money, answer why Wall Street and the Fed do what they do, and why it should matter to us. If anything remains a financial mystery, it's what happens at the Federal Reserve. Does Fed Chairman Jerome Powell and his over 2,300 staffers use spreadsheets, market trends, an abacus, or tea leaves to set rates? Because from the financial novice or illiterate (raising my hand), their decisions come off as arbitrary, political, or both. As opposed to the former Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen,
Another major children's hospital has thrown in the towel on the transgender madness that's been poisoning our healthcare system for years. Children's National Hospital in Washington, D.C., just announced that it's pulling the plug on "gender transition" medical interventions for kids, effective August 30. And the reason? Reality finally came knocking.
"In light of escalating legal and regulatory risks to Children’s National, our providers, and the families we serve, we will be discontinuing the prescription of gender-affirming [sic] medications," the web page for the hospital's "Gender Development Program" reads. "Mental health and other support services for LGBT patients remain available.
President Donald Trump weighed in on Senator Adam Schiff's alleged mortgage fraud troubles late Sunday evening, claiming the Democrat is in "big trouble" and demanding he face prison time for his actions. Schiff is under scrutiny following a criminal referral sent by the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA) to the Department of Justice (DOJ) in May.
The referral alleges that Schiff misrepresented his primary residence on mortgage documents for a Potomac, Maryland property between 2003 and 2019 to secure more favorable loan terms. A Fannie Mae memo concluded that Schiff engaged in a sustained pattern of possible occupancy misrepresentation in "multiple instances."
The World Economic Forum’s Klaus Schwab has been accused of rigging research to make Brexit look like a failure, intervening in the WEF’s annual Global Competitiveness Report to push the UK down the rankings. The Telegraph has more.
Klaus Schwab, the face of the Davos conference in Switzerland for years, allegedly intervened in the WEF’s annual Global Competitiveness Report, which ranks countries on productivity and long-term prosperity.
In the 2017/2018 report, the UK’s ranking improved from seventh to fourth after a change in methodology.
But Mr Schwab, 87, wrote to staff that the UK “must not see any improvement”, as otherwise it would be “exploited by the Brexit camp”.
Here we go again. Politico declares that Democratic Texas State Representative James Talarico “might turn Texas blue,” in large part because he recently was a guest on Joe Rogan's podcast.
Talarico is thinking of running for Texas’s U.S. Senate seat in 2026.
This is a couple months after Politico wrote about the “eye-catching showing of support” Democrats had for Senate candidate Colin Allred, who lost to Ted Cruz by about 960,000 votes in the 2024 Senate race. And about seven years after Politico wrote “Beto-Mania Sweeps Texas.” And the August 2013 “Game On” cover of Texas Monthly. And . . . well,
The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) did not review thumb drives containing potentially significant evidence while investigating Hillary Clinton’s private email server, according to a newly declassified report.
An FBI draft memo from May 2016 stated reviewing the thumb drives would be necessary to conduct a “thorough and complete investigation,” including assessing national security risks associated with the private server. Yet the agency “never finalized the memorandum or submitted this request to the department,” according to the document released Monday by Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley.
There was a moment this week—brief, unassuming, and barely covered in the blaring swirl of press microphones and boom cameras—when one of the most dominant athletes in the world offered a sermon disguised as a shrug.
Scottie Scheffler, the current World No. 1 in golf, sat before a packed room of reporters ahead of the 153rd Open Championship in Northern Ireland. As expected, the questions were incessant: what does it mean to be No. 1, what drives him to win, how does he stay so mentally sharp? Sports journalists, trained to extract sound bites, wanted a narrative. Scheffler gave them something far more meaningful.
“There’s a theme,” he said early on.
James Comey broke his silence on Sunday evening and went off on President Trump after the Justice Department fired Maurene Comey.
Maurene Comey, daughter of James Comey, was fired as a federal prosecutor in the Manhattan US Attorney’s office last Wednesday.
“There was no specific reason given for her firing from the U.S. attorney’s office in the Southern District of New York, according to one of the people who spoke to the AP on the condition of anonymity to discuss personnel matters,” the AP reported.
Maurene Comey didn’t call out Trump by name, but she attacked the president and his administration in a message after being fired.

Former Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice weighed in earlier this week on President Trump’s ultimatum on Russia, suggesting it is a “turning point” in peace efforts in the more than three-year-long war in Ukraine.
“This last week was a turning point,” she said Thursday during a panel moderated by NBC’s Andrea Mitchell at the Aspen Security Forum in Colorado. “I think the best news that we could possibly give to the Ukrainian people is that the U.S. and Europe have finally aligned around the idea that Vladimir Putin will not be stopped with words,” Rice continued later, referring to the Russian president.
Much has been written about America’s largest city edging closer to electing a socialist mayor.
Zohran Mamdani recently won the Democratic primary, which is likely enough to secure the mayoralty of New York City. He still has to get through a general election that includes incumbent Eric Adams, now running as an independent. But Mamdani is in a strong position. How did Mamdani rise to the top of the ticket over Andrew Cuomo, a well-known but scandal-plagued former governor? He ran a calculated campaign focused on New York City’s affordability crisis. He’s promised free bus rides, city-run grocery stores, a $30 minimum wage, and rent freezes —
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said Sunday that the public is “going to love the deals that President Trump and I are doing” as the administration promises forthcoming breakthroughs on tariffs.
“Well, you heard in our polling some of the perceptions of the economy,” CBS News’s “Face the Nation” host Margaret Brennan told Lutnick. “Sixty-one percent of Americans believe the administration is putting too much focus on tariffs, 70 percent say the administration is not doing enough to lower prices and 60 percent oppose new tariffs on imported goods.”
Read Our Lips - No Amnesty Ever
replies
There is cringe, and then there is the DIGNITY Act. It’s one of those stupid bills whose authors turn its title into a stupid acronym, but this latest amnesty proposal doesn’t make an acronym out of “DIGNITY”; fittingly, it makes it out of the Spanish word “DIGNIDAD” (Dignity) and stands for “Dignity for Immigrants while Guarding our Nation to Ignite and Deliver the American Dream.” We should ignite it all right, and deliver it to be used as a suppository, not just because of that idiocy, but because there’s so much more to hate. Basically, it’s a free ride for illegal aliens in exchange for enforcement that will never happen
Attorney General Pam Bondi is stepping up his purge of corrupt officials working at the Department of Justice (DOJ).
According to a report from The Hill, Bondi and President Trump are “culling the ranks of career officials” who have links or loyalties to the Democratic establishment that led the persecution of conservatives during the Biden administration.
The report states:
Maurene Comey, a New York-based federal prosecutor and the daughter of the former FBI director, was fired Wednesday without explanation.

Russia unleashed one of its largest aerial assaults on Ukraine in recent months hours before the U.K. and Germany chaired a meeting on Monday to discuss U.S. President Donald Trump’s plans for NATO allies to provide Ukraine with weapons.
The attack killed two people and wounded 15, including a 12-year-old, Ukraine’s President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
A drone struck the entrance to a subway station in Kyiv’s Shevchenkivskyi district where people had taken cover. Videos posted on social media showed the station platform engulfed by smoke, with dozens of people inside. Kyiv Mayor Vitalii Klitschko said the station had to be ventilated in what he called an “enhanced mode.”
Since the beginning of the Israel-Hamas war, Al-Jazeera has been openly serving as the unofficial mouthpiece of Hamas and its military wing, Izaddin al-Qassam.
Even before the war, Hamas's political and military leaders often chose Al-Jazeera to spread their propaganda and call for jihad (holy war) against Israel.
Hamas knows it can trust Al-Jazeera: the two share the same radical Islamist ideology that calls for the elimination of Israel and replacing it with an Islamist terror state.
Hamas does not need its own television station. It has Al-Jazeera, one of the most influential and wealthiest TV networks in the Arab world. This is what happens when most of the funding comes from Qatar,
Hunter Biden lashed out at the Trump administration’s crackdown on illegal immigration, arguing there would be no one to cook, clean and do landscaping if they are all deported.
In a wide-ranging, profanity-laced interview with Andrew Callaghan, the former first son took issue with Democrats who believe American concerns about illegal immigration need to be addressed.
“F*** you,” he said. “How do you think your hotel room gets cleaned? How do you think you have food on your f****** table? Who do you think washes your dishes? Who do you think does your f****** garden.
A former NPR CEO made a shocking admission about Congress voting to cut federal funding for the news outlet and other public media organizations.
During an interview on MSNBC, Vivian Schiller suggested that NPR will survive without federal funding and that leaders should work together to adapt to the new development.
“The fact is, this is done, the money is gone, the rescission has happened so my perspective now is let's move on,” she said. “Look in many cases, I have long believed that mixing journalism and federal funding is just a recipe for disaster, so in many ways I think this is an opportunity for a reset.”
The Trump-Russia collusion story was always a targeted false smear intended to generate a special counsel and hamstring the surprising winner from the 2016 election, Donald Trump. The Russia-Collusion narrative was always an Intelligence Community op against Donald TRump.
Yesterday, Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard released a tranche of background information, [114 pages of information], showing how the Obama administration intentionally and with great purpose fabricated the entire story.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard Press Release Here – Files Containing Evidence Here
If Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's weekend data drop showing President Barack Obama's direct involvement in conjuring the Russiagate scandal out of thin air didn't already have heads exploding all across the nation, this AI video President Donald Trump just shared on Truth Social ought to do the trick.
It shows Obama getting arrested in the Oval Office, right under Trump's eye — and then pacing a lonely jail cell.
A pundit can dream, can't he?
If you missed the weekend news dump, PJ's own Matt Margolis has all the juicy details for you. RealClear's Paul Sperry followed up Gabbard's reveals later on Sunday, posting on X:
Sens. John Fetterman, D-Pa., and Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., have introduced a bill that would generally require those conducting in-person business to accept cash as payment from customers. "Any person engaged in the business of selling or offering goods or services at retail to the public who accepts in-person payments at a physical location … shall accept cash as a form of payment for sales made at such physical location in amounts up to and including $500 per transaction," the measure stipulates, in part.
DNI Tulsi Gabbard outlines how the documents released show how the Obama administration actively engaged the Intelligence Community to fabricate a false and malicious conspiracy against the incoming Trump administration.
(snip) Director Gabbard emphasizes within her role she is able to reach into each of the eighteen intelligence agencies and extract documents that pertain to singular issues, in this case the role of Russia in the 2016 election. This cross-silo investigative ability is why the DNI office is so important
Two impeachments didn’t do it. A phony Russian hoax didn’t do it. A dubious election loss didn’t do it. Relentlessly negative coverage didn’t do it. Civil and criminal judgments and massive fines didn’t do it. Two assassination attempts didn’t do it.
Maybe Jeffrey Epstein’s ghost will finally bring Donald Trump down. That seems to be the hope, anyway.
Epstein, who hobnobbed with the rich and famous, had been under investigation since 2005 for sex trafficking and pedophilia, and died in prison six years ago, has been responsible for conspiracy theories for years.
As NPR wrote in 2022:
On this week’s broadcast of “Fox News Sunday,” Harvard law professor emeritus Alan Dershowitz said convicted sex offender Ghislaine Maxwell should be given immunity and be compelled to testify before a congressional committee about the Jeffrey Epstein files. Host Shannon Bream said, “You mentioned Ghislaine Maxwell. She’s still got an appeal. I’m tracking at the Supreme Court, but in the meantime, you suggest she should be potentially offered congressional immunity to go and testify. Do you think that would happen? And what kind of information would she have that we haven’t seen?”
In a post on X, Fateh, who is described as the Minneapolis version of socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, revealed that the DFL had endorsed him. Fateh expressed that he was “honored” and added that the endorsement was “a message that Minneapolis residents are done with broken promises, vetoes, and politics as usual.”
“I am incredibly honored to be the DFL endorsed candidate for Minneapolis Mayor,” Fateh said in his post. “This endorsement is a message that Minneapolis residents are done with broken promises, vetoes, and politics as usual. It’s a mandate to build a city that works for all of us.”
President Donald Trump is calling on Senate Majority Leader John Thune to confirm his executive nominees awaiting confirmation by the upper chamber.
“Hopefully the very talented John Thune, fresh off our many victories over the past two weeks and, indeed, 6 months, will cancel August recess (and long weekends!), in order to get my incredible nominees confirmed,” the president wrote in a Saturday Truth Social post. “We need them badly!!!” Trump’s push for Thune to quickly get his appointees confirmed came days after The Federalist reported that there more than 120 of the president’s nominees awaiting action by the Senate.
Five years ago, a group of internet sleuths uncovered what remains the single biggest breakthrough in the Russiagate hoax: the identification of Igor Danchenko. Danchenko was the so-called “primary sub-source” behind the infamous Steele dossier, a Clinton campaign subcontractor whose fabrications formed the backbone of the fraudulent Trump-Russia collusion narrative. The FBI had buried his identity deep inside its classified files, hoping it would never come to light. But when it did, the entire hoax collapsed. From start to finish, it had all been made up.
The 2025 inflow was announced Friday by an agency within the Department of Homeland Security (DHS): “U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services [USCIS] has received enough petitions to reach the congressionally mandated 65,000 H-1B visa regular cap and the 20,000 H-1B visa U.S. advanced degree exemption, known as the master’s cap, for fiscal year 2026.” But the same agency also announced on Thursday it is drafting a regulation to change how companies import the H-1B workers.
The cryptic announcement merely said: “Weighted Selection Process for Registrants and Petitioners Seeking To File Cap-Subject H-1B Petitions.” The announcement did not provide a schedule or a description of the draft regulation,
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard just lit a fuse under the deep state—and it’s about time.
Appearing Sunday on “Sunday Morning Futures” with Maria Bartiromo, Gabbard dropped a stunning accusation: that Barack Obama personally directed a “treasonous conspiracy” to undermine Donald Trump’s presidency before it even began. And now, according to Gabbard, the floodgates are opening—whistleblowers who were sickened by what they witnessed are starting to come forward.
Accountability? DNI Gabbard Says Whistleblowers

Are Now 'Coming Out of the Woodwork' on Russiagate replies
To me, the strangest part of the recent release of documents confirming the involvement of former President Barack Obama and his national security team in essentially cooking up an Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that served as the foundation for years of investigations and false accusations against President Donald Trump is how numb so many are to the significance of it. As our Bob Hoge rightly notes: It does rather feel like that. And yet, perhaps the time has come, and we are about to see some accountability after all. Perhaps. According to Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, this isn't just about newly disclosed documents.

When you read as much news as I do, it’s often very tempting to rely solely on other people’s summaries and analyses of the information that’s out there. If I trust the source, why shouldn’t I let that source do the heavy lifting? Occasionally, though, you need to go to the original material to get the full impact.
I decided that, when it came to the material that Tulsi Gabbard released about the origins of the Russia collusion hoax that dragged down Trump’s first term, I needed to see things for myself.
Albany and City Hall are now staring at some wicked fiscal headwinds, a key watchdog reports — but it’s not like they weren’t warned.
The Citizens Budget Commission is flagging both the city and state’s massive budgets, slamming them as “unaffordable and unprepared” in light of federal funding cuts and a possible economic slowdown down the road.
With passage of President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which aims to (slightly) curb the growth of federal outlays, including aid to New York, Gov. Kathy Hochul is directing state agencies to cut $750 million from their budgets.
The sanctions Secretary of State Marco Rubio slapped on leading UN antisemite Francesca Albanese this month already may be paying handsome dividends.
Just a week later, all three members of a UN Commission of Inquiry set up specifically to clobber Israel — Chairwoman Navi Pillay, Miloon Kothari and Chris Sidoti — quit.
That makes the horrific stink at Turtle Bay a bit less awful. Albanese certainly deserves Rubio’s sanctions. As the UN’s Human Rights Council special rapporteur, her job is specifically to slap Israel for its supposed wrongdoing in the Palestinian territories — and she’s done that with zest. (Even when the wrongdoing is fake, which is essentially all the time.)
If you listened to the rest of the media — both mainstream and social media — you would think Donald Trump was on the skids, that MAGA was at last turning on the president over the so-called Epstein Files.
But nothing could be further from the truth, according to polling the president crowed about over the weekend and, also, according to history. Every single time his enemies count him out, Trump roars back with a vengeance.
The latest effort last week to try to smear him as a sexual deviant and damage his marriage by tying him to child sex predator Jeffrey Epstein is a case in point.
Now that President Trump's National Intelligence Director, Tulsi Gabbard, is exposing the depths of the Democrat deep state's disinformation operation against President Trump as a Russian agent as he entered office in 2021, it's worth noting that the operation had a lot of casualties on the way -- people who were smeared, often in the press at the explicit direction of the Obama White House -- one of whom was Gabbard herself.
Anyone recall how Hillary Clinton attempted to smear Gabbard herself as a "favorite of the Russians" and a "Russian asset"?
The small right-wing populist party Sanseito, which campaigned under the slogan of “Japanese First,” won big in Sunday’s Upper House election, taking a projected 14 seats — the third-most among opposition forces in the poll, after the Constitutional Democratic Party of Japan (CDP) and the Democratic Party for the People (DPP).
The stunning results made the upstart party the fourth-largest opposition force in the Upper House, behind the CDP, DPP and Nippon Ishin no Kai. The ruling Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) and Komeito coalition was dealt a drubbing in the poll, losing its majority
A recent Rasmussen poll revealed that 60 percent of Democrats still believe the debunked claim that President Trump’s campaign colluded with the Russians to win the 2016 election. Can such people be disabused of this delusion by DNI Tulsi Gabbard’s Friday revelation that former President Obama helped launch that hoax in an attempt to undermine the first Trump administration? Not if they still listen to the legacy media. Gabbard has the receipts and plans a criminal referral to the Department of Justice, yet the news outlets that peddled the Russia collusion hoax dismiss her charges.
