In a blitz of media appearances on Tuesday, Vice President JD Vance took friendly fire from the hosts at Fox & Friends and Gutfeld!, and some not-so-friendly fire from the hosts of The View. On the surface, Vance was trying to drum up interest in his new book, Communion: Finding My Way Back to Faith, […]
During a Tuesday night appearance on Fox’s late-night show “Gutfeld!” Trump's presumptive 2028 successor, Vice President JD Vance, dropped a "Trump 2028" punchline. While discussing Trump's memorandum of understanding with Iran, Panelist Lisa Kennedy Montgomery said she's "optimistic" about it because Trump "sides with capitalism and economic growth." She added, "I think if there's one legacy he wants, it's stability in the Middle East, and to be able to turn the entire place into a massive Trump World Resort, which I also celebrate, because I'm hoping by being on the same show with Vice President Vance that I get a discount code when it opens." Vance immediately quipped, "If you want the discount code, it's Trump 2028." WATCH: Donald Trump Jr.

Lawmakers cite rushed timeline and public input despite pressure to redraw districts after supreme court opinionGeorgia Republicans declined to redraw the state’s congressional map during a special session, citing a rushed timeline and incomplete understanding of the ramifications of a recent US supreme court decision that effectively gutted a major section of the Voting Rights Act.“We believe that it’s important to do things the Georgia way, responsibly, transparently, and with ample opportunity for public input,” said Jon Burns, the Georgia house speaker.

The memorandum of understanding President Donald Trump brokered to negotiate an end to the Iran war is already being harshly panned by many on the right — and some are beginning to set up Vice President JD Vance to take the fall.This pivot was demonstrated clearly on Fox News Wednesday, as GOP personality Ben Shapiro unloaded on the vice president."This MOU appears to be a disaster that does not achieve any of the actual goals set by the administration at the beginning," he said. "The Vice President, the chief negotiator on this project, has not well served the president."Shapiro's reaction got noticed by many observers on social media — many of whom noted that Vance wasn't even responsible for negotiating the deal, and he opposed the war with Iran from the beginning, but that none of that seems to matter in MAGA world."There it is," said Missouri Democratic congressional candidate Fred Wellman. "Vance didn't negotiate this, but he is the designated bus target because it was actually Jared Kushner and Steve Witkoff who Trump will never turn on. This is the setup they always wanted. I love this for Vance because he thought he would be the one who survives.""Stab-in-the-back 2026: The process begins on the right of blaming @VP, not Trump nor the original Trump/Netanyahu conviction that war could break Iran to their demands, for the failure of the war to achieve what Trump allies promised it would (actually had promised for years)," said Bloomberg Opinion writer Ronald Brownstein.Former Rep. Joe Walsh (R-IL) had a blunt message: "Shame on you @benshapiro. This isn’t on Vance. This humiliating foreign policy debacle/disaster is on Trump. This is Trump’s [expletive] up, and only Trump’s [expletive] up. Have the guts to say that."
A Democrat-aligned lawfare outfit filed a lawsuit on behalf of a pair of anti-Trump protesters earlier this month in the hope of shutting down the UFC Freedom 250 event on the White House South Lawn last Sunday.Evidently, the Public Integrity Project and activist plaintiffs were not the only ones keen to rain on President Donald Trump's parade.'The landscape has changed.'The FBI announced on Tuesday that an alleged assassination plot targeting the UFC event was uncovered on June 10 and ultimately thwarted thanks to a timely phone call from a concerned mother and the rapid action of local and federal law enforcement agencies.Five men have been charged in the alleged plot to assassinate "high value targets" at the UFC event: Tycen C. Proper, 19, of Danville, Ohio; Bryan Omar Roa, 24, of Calimesa, California; Michael Alan Thomas 32, of Pinon Hills, California; Daniel K. Eskridge, 32, of Kidder, Missouri; and Abraham Hermosillo Alvarez, 31, of Omaha, Nebraska.According to the Justice Department, the suspects' plan consisted of two parts: First, they would use explosive drones in and around the event to prompt an evacuation; and second, they would deploy snipers to assassinate specific individuals within the fleeing crowd. In addition to the estimated 4,300 people present for the invite-only event on the South Lawn, there were roughly 85,000 additional people gathered nearby during the back-to-back fights.One of the suspects, Michael Thomas, allegedly discussed the four "tiers" of this anti-government plot: the first being the gunmen on the ground; the second being the drivers and drone operators; the third being logistical suppliers; and the fourth being social media suppliers.In addition to allegedly advocating for jail breaks for surviving tier 1 members in the aftermath of the planned attack, Thomas allegedly underscored the need for suspects to train for "gorilla [sic] style warfare."Another suspect, Daniel Eskridge, allegedly proposed that they form "5 teams of 3 each team consisting of 1 sniper, 1 tier one operator as support/ look out, [and] one drone operator."RELATED: James Comey-style 'threat' against Trump apparently etched into National Mall grass Screenshots of messages and maps on a suspect's phone and a photo of another suspect's equipment. Justice Department.Another suspect, Alvarez, allegedly suggested that snipers could escape to the Potomac River after taking their shots and identified an old church in Nebraska as a potential safe house.Multiple federal complaints filed in relation to the case across the country allege that Tycen C. Proper told investigators that the ball got rolling on the plan around March. While there were apparently more individuals involved in the discussions at the outset — roughly 19 — Proper allegedly claimed that the more serious plotters migrated their conversations to an encrypted chat app.The FBI alleged beyond amassing firearms, ammunition, and tactical gear at his Ohio home, Proper identified multiple targets, including multiple members of Congress and business executives.According to an affidavit submitted with Proper's complaint, the Ohio suspect proposed the following lawmakers as targets: Republican Senators Marsha Blackburn (Tenn.), Jim Justice (W.Va.), and Shelley Moore Capito (W.Va.), and Republican Representatives for West Virginia Carol Miller and Riley Moore.The targets were allegedly chosen in part because of their perceived coziness with the Israeli lobby.Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and Elon Musk's names were also allegedly floated as targets in the suspects' conversations.The affidavit indicates that the alleged plot — the purpose of which was to "jumpstart" a revolution in the United States — was foiled thanks to the vigilance of Proper's mother, who called law enforcement on the evening of June 10, expressing concerns about her son's recent conduct, including his firearm purchases and communications online.The Knox County Sheriff's Office and Danville Police Department arrived 20 minutes later and soon learned from Proper's father that the teen, who lived at home, was allegedly planning "recons" with individuals he met online; planning to leave to meet up with those individuals on the weekend of June 13; had spent roughly $3,000 of his graduation money to purchase camping gear, firearms, ammunition, plate carriers, and food; and had quit his job recently in preparation for his big excursion.The following day, the Knox County Sheriff's Office got the FBI involved.If convicted of conspiracy to commit murder, each of the defendants faces a maximum of life in prison and a $250,000 fine. They each face an additional five years in prison apiece if convicted of conspiracy to commit violence on the White House grounds."The FBI, our law enforcement partners and our U.S.
