When you republican mofos talk about “the biased media”. This should tell you who controls the media. Not to mention how much Trump’s gaffes are underreported or glossed over.
There would have been no problem if he interviewed both Paxton and Talarico.
Equal airtine is the issue here
Ted Cruz can be interviewed on live TV,he is not a candidate.
Media licences granted to broadcasters should not be partisan,else they will screw up the minds of voters.
I wonder if you get that logic.

Democrats are now suddenly talking about inflation.
They have been running on making life more affordable for the common man.
$5000 will make their lives more affordable.
Democrats now have to oppose the offer.

Hunter Biden officially launched a cryptocurrency meme coin named $LAPTOP on 9 September 2026.

The Spike: Within its first hour, the price of $LAPTOP skyrocketed from around $37 to a high of $222 per token, briefly reaching a multi-billion dollar valuation.

Minutes later, the coin suffered an absolute "bloodbath," crashing by 98% to less than $2. [1]

The Aftermath: Over 15,000 crypto accounts lost money in the crash. While critics accused the project of being a "rug pull" (a type of crypto scam), Hunter Biden denied the claims, blaming thin liquidity and predatory automated trading bots for the rapid collaps



Bayelsaowei,anyone is free to launch their own coins.

Trump is about the most self centered sociopath you could ever think of.. you mean the Trump that abandoned his cabinet members on Air Force due to an attack scare from Iran?.
You've displayed total ignorance and lack of knowledge here. Secret service and every other Presidential Security details are in charge of the vehicle a president uses and the route. The president has no say whatsoever about the logistics.. If they tell him get in this car , no questions. He can only tell them I want to be there at this particular minute ,the logistics are 100% the domain of secret service. Total ignorance on your part

You mean Trump the grifter? A man who is making deals and compensating his cronies at the expense of average Americans? A man who has gutted Medicare/Medicaid to the detriment of struggling Americans.
As for that,he is a businessman and should his businesses be shut down ?
You can talk about crypto that he's promoting and lots of people are making profits . Has he forced anyone to buy hus meme coins.
His friends are also business people. Peter Thiel for example owns Palantir which has a superior product used by the Intelligence Community and won a huge contract under Biden.
Medicare and other aid programs are full of fraud ,maybe you can be specific what was gutted.

Trump can’t donate his kidney to anybody, not even to his current wife.
Lest I forget I gave you 100% proof that democrats supported Epstein and his pseudo friends.

If you want further proof that liberals are evil here it is.

James Talarico has called St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Austin home since he was two years old, he says. It has been led for 35 years by Rev. Jim Rigby, whom Talarico calls a “mentor.Rev. Babs Miller is “Minister to the Parish,” according to the progressive church’s website.

On Trump's shooting
“We still have people in this church who wish that the young man had not just nicked his ear, but had been more successful,” Miller said, according to a video obtained by Townhall Media.

“If you polled our members, and asked them if they were Christian, agnostic, or atheist, the vast majority would say agnostic or atheist because they don’t buy the religion that we got from the Puritans,” Miller said, according to another video reviewed by Townhall.

AWESOME! Trump-endorsed Florida governor candidate Byron Donalds just walked out at the RNC and went RED STATE DOMINANCE mode

"Florida and Texas have something absolutely essential in common."

"OUR 2 STATES PROVE THAT REPUBLICAN POLICIES BUILT ON COMMON SENSE WORK."

☀️👏🏻

"We keep our governments small and let people live their lives. We cut taxes, slash regulations, and we get government out of your way."

"We back the blue and stand unapologetically with our first responders."

"And when the Democrats show up saying, let's put boys and girls locker rooms, we say — HELL NO!" 🇺🇸

@ByronDonalds
will be the next governor of Florida and is a RUBY RED state!

Hopefully Texas stays red too and elects KEN PAXTON to the US Senate!




Democrat Party Senator John Fetterman gave a surprise speech .Can you imagine a democrat Senator showing up at the Republican convention. Democrats have lost their marbles .
“Yes, I’m Senator John Fetterman, Pennsylvania. Yes, I’m a Democrat. Why am I here talking to you today? Because, well, I’m a common-sense Democrat. I’m always going to stand with America,” Fetterman said in a pre-recorded video.

“I’m always going to reject the extremes and Socialism and that anti-American way of life,” he added.

“Dave McCormick is the kind of senator that gets the job done, and he’s going to fight for Pennsylvania. I’m proud to count him as my friend,” he said.

Bayelsaowei. Let's go on.
By 2004 Epstein had been donating to democrats to the tune of $140,000. These were to Bill Clinton, Chuck Schumer, John Kerry and the DNC .
After 2008 being a registered sex offender he couldn't publicly donate .It would look bad .
However he continued to donate thousands of $$$ to Stacey Plankett ( I'll come to her) and Gary King of New Mexico.

About Stacey Plankett.. During Michael Cohen 2019 House Oversight committee hearing Epstein was texting Stacey Plankett guiding her on what gotcha question to ask Michael Cohen
Epstein (2:24 PM): "Cohen brought up RONA - keeper of the secrets" (referring to Rhona Graff, Donald Trump's longtime executive assistant)
.Plaskett: "RONA?? Quick I'm up next is that an acronym"
.Epstein: "Thats his assistant".


Following Epstein's guidance, exactly 7 minutes later, she specifically questioned Cohen on the house floor about Trump's assistant, asking if "Miss Rona" could corroborate and verify his claims.
Cohen affirmed that she could.

Note that this hearing in 2019 (Pelosi as speaker) was questioning Cohen looking for any dirt on Trump. Democrat had retaken the House in 2018, Epstein was helping democrats tar and feather Trunp .


Defend your paedophile supporters Bayelsaowei. Defend them I await.

I'll also add that Epstein plea deal where he served jail time 12 hours a day free to to go his office ,his known crimes were simply soliciting for sex with a minor .

Trunp is the one who started calling him out and pointing out that Bill Clinton would one day get in trouble. Trunp is the only one who responded to the victim's lawyer . The rest of the scum refused.

Bayelsaowei. Epstein case

Mr Acosta negotiated a plea deal for Epstein in 2008. Victims were not informed.

Two victims Jane Doe 1 and 2 sued the government, arguing that federal prosecutors had violated the Crime Victims’ Rights Act (CVRA) by keeping them completely in the dark about the 2008 deal.

Obama DOJ in 2011 filed to dismiss the lawsuits by the victims.

Stop there. Obama wanted the victims to shut up for good ,Epstein had served time,he was free to mix with democrat donors the rest of his life..

Judge Marra ,a Republican appointed judge flatly refused to dismiss the suit in 2011.

The case draggedon..In 2018 he issued a final ruling.
Prosecutors violated law in dealings with Jeffrey Epstein victims.


Judge Marra’s refusal to dismiss the case in 2011 is exactly what allowed the victims to keep fighting, gather evidence, and eventually sue in other courts.

Conclusion .
Obama DOJ wanted to protect Epstein by silencing the victims.

Defend Obama. Defend him .

EVEN THEIR OWN PEOPLE KNEW IT WAS WRONG.
A top Biden DOJ official — Patty Stemler, picked by Garland himself — sent an email TWO DAYS after the Mar-a-Lago raid admitting she was “worrying” about it. She asked the obvious question they never wanted answered: Doesn’t the President have the authority to declassify documents as Commander-in-Chief? Are presidents bound by the same bureaucratic rules as everyone else? They never checked.
Meanwhile the FBI agents on the ground kept telling DOJ they did NOT have probable cause. The information was thin, uncorroborated, and old. DOJ didn’t care. They wanted the raid, they wanted it bigger, and they didn’t give a damn about the optics of storming a former President’s home.
This was never about “national security.” It was a political raid — the first of its kind in American history — designed to kneecap the one man they feared most. Trump cooperated, returned boxes, and they still sent in the FBI.
The documents they seized were already declassified by the President who had the constitutional power to do it. The raid was the real crime.
They lost. America won. And now the receipts are public.
This can never happen again.

Canada liberal globalist PM thinks he will make Americans suffer and Republicans lose eke midterms.
Taking stock so far

50% Tariffs: Imposed on $20 billion to $27 billion worth of Canadian imports, hitting steel, aluminum, furniture, clothing, wine, beer, appliances, video game consoles, hockey equipment, and toilet paper.

_Complete Import Bans: The U.S. has banned the import of Canadian motorcycles (including mopeds), most alcoholic beverages (wine, rum, vodka, malt beer), and specific dairy products (like whey).

_Government Contract Blacklist: Trump ordered the U.S. government to completely remove Canadian products from long-term federal procurement contracts

Bombardier Threat: Trump has threatened a complete ban on aircraft sales from Canadian manufacturer Bombardier to the U.S..

Future Auto Threats: The White House has threatened a massive 50% tariff on Canadian cars, trucks, and automotive parts.

➡️ Canadian RetaliationLed by Prime Minister Mark Carney,Canada responded with a "dollar-for-dollar" economic strike.

Tit-for-Tat Tariffs: Canada slapped 15%, 25%, and 50% duties on roughly $20 billion (US) / $27.6 billion (CAD) of American goods.

Targeted U.S. Products: The tariffs double duties on American steel and aluminum (accounting for 31% of the hit) and penalize U.S. agricultural equipment, dairy (milk/cheese), pulp and paper, household appliances, electronics, and golf clubs.

Bailout Package: To protect its own economy, Ottawa launched a C$5.4 billion to C$7.5 billion financial support package for affected small businesses and workers.


Canada economy is thirteen tines smaller.

55% of Bombardiers revenues come from Americans. A single jet spends at least 75-100% of it's cost in service and spare parts over it's 20-25 year life cycle. Every few years a jet must be stripied down to bare metal and every component analyzed for microscopic deflects. Trump telling Americans to boycott Bombardier will result in lost revenue.

China's harsh treatment of the Uighur

Few dare say a thing.
Muslims are claiming they are the real victims of 9/11 because of the blowback.

#news Fast Fact: Over 1 million m*slims were sent to internment camps for re-education where they were forced to eat pork and drink Alcohol

Islam is considered an ideological illness” in China, with the CCP treating the religion as a virus or disease to be “cured”
#China
They have no m*slim protests there and the only flag allowed to be raised is the Chinese flag.

Details:

🔺️The U.S. State Department said that since between 2017 & 2-19 over 1 million m*slims were held in the camps or converted facilities -without a trial

🔺️Leaked files and official spending data in 2019, showed that 900,000 to 1.8 million people interned since spring 2017

🔺️In addition, Xinjiang prosecutors reported 540,826 prosecutions from 2017 through 2021.

🔺️China’s conviction rate is above 99.9% - meaning hundreds of thousands more m*slims were pushed into the prison system.

🔺️About 880,000 children were put in boarding facilities - half of those when their parents were detained.

🔺️They received Mandarin-only instruction

🔺️Former detainees say they were forced to drink alcohol, and that pork was used as punishment.

🔺️"Guards put pork on the rice and said, you have to eat pork or you’ll face punishment.”

Outside the camps, the “Pair Up and Become Family” program sent Han “relatives” into m*slim homes.

They brought pork and alcohol and expected the family to eat and drink. If they refused, they were sent to camp.

China denies all claims

What do you think? Why are m*slims marching in the streets and calling Chinese people Islamophobic like they do here in the US?

TRUMP DOJ CHARGES FOUR TIMES MORE NONCITIZENS WITH ELECTION FRAUD THAN BIDEN DID IN FOUR YEARS

In under two years, the Trump Justice Department has charged 50 noncitizens with election fraud crimes —illegal voting, illegal registration —nearly four times the 13 noncitizens Biden's DOJ charged across its entire four-year term, according to a new Daily Signal analysis.

The pace gap is even starker annualized: Trump's Justice Department is averaging roughly 31 charges a year, compared to 3.25 a year under Attorney General Merrick Garland —nearly a 10x jump in enforcement speed.

Seventeen of Trump's 50 defendants have already been convicted, versus nine under Biden.These aren't abstractions. Cuban, Haitian, and Brazilian nationals have been convicted of illegally voting in Florida. A French citizen pleaded guilty to casting a ballot in the 2022 election. Charges have gone forward in Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, and New Jersey ahead of the midterms —states where a handful of illegal votes can decide a race.

A Justice Department spokesperson didn't mince words: “The contrast with the prior administration could not be clearer — this department is enforcing the law against noncitizen voting in ways the last administration simply refused to.”
Election-integrity advocate Cleta Mitchell put the stakes even more plainly: “How many illegal votes are OK with you? We want to make sure there are no illegal votes cast.”

For four years, noncitizen voting was treated as a fringe conspiracy theory by the last DOJ.

The numbers say otherwise —and now someone is finally counting.The votes were never supposed to be theirs to cast.


Under Biden we used to hear that non citizens don't vote.. Meaning since there were no prosecutions, it didn't happen

They were sent to Bangui.
From there they will fly in to Cuba without any problem, they need to be verified by cuban embassy to go back home if they don't have passports. The nearest embassy is thousands of kilometers away.
They will curse Cuba for making their plight worse. Most governments hate annoying their people for no reason especially when it's facing a crisis

If the deportees to Cuba so far gave criminal records ,why you care about them.
If the deportees support DSA, it would be good for them to go and live in the communist nation they so desire.
