President Donald Trump’s border czar is promising increased immigration enforcement action in New York City. During a visit to Fox News’s ‘Fox & Friends,’ Tom Homan revealed […]
US President Donald Trump renewed his claims of momentum toward ending the conflict with Iran, after brokering a halt to hostilities between Israel and the Islamic Republic and easing tensions that had threatened to derail broader peace efforts.
Panelists on MS NOW's "Morning Joe" sounded the alarm over President Donald Trump's latest election fraud lies.The president had proclaimed that GOP candidates in the Los Angeles mayoral race, including former reality TV star Spencer Pratt, have been "cheated" after losing last week's primary election, and "Morning Joe" co-host Mika Brzezinski was aghast that House Speaker Mike Johnson and other high-ranking Republicans are going along with his claims."It's diabolical," Brzezinski said. "Unless you are waiting to become speaker of the House, and then you patiently wait for California to come in, that is hypocrisy at the highest extreme, performative hypocrisy ... Explain for us how California's slow vote-counting process, which Mike Johnson is fine with when it benefits him, is now diabolical, even though it's driven by the state's heavy reliance on mail voting, and it delays the final results for 30 days. I don't get it."California is a large and populous state that relies heavily on mail-in voting that can take longer to count, and The Dispatch's David Drucker said Trump was exploiting that laborious process and the conservative social media bubble for his own political purposes."The city of LA is seven points more democratic than the state of California, so you tell me how a Spencer Pratt is supposed to win this race," Drucker said. "It's just exceedingly unlikely, and even though he mastered the attention economy of this campaign and had people all over the country and particularly in Washington thinking, 'How can this guy lose? Look at his ads.'"Trump's false claims about California's election have also been echoed by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-WI), and the panelists lamented that Republicans are too afraid to challenge the president even when he's clearly lying."It really sucks for democracy," said Axios co-founder Jim VandeHei. "This is the stuff you see happen in a broken country, in a third-world country where they've not been able to govern effectively. Every time you call into question whether or not our elections are valid, you weaken the soul of the country, and that's why this is damaging."If the president or his GOP allies had evidence of fraud, VandeHei said they should present it, but he warned they appeared to be laying the groundwork to challenge potential election losses this fall – just as Trump attempted to overturn his own election loss in 2020."This is the 250th year of this country," said veteran diplomat Richard Haas. "Here we are, we're meant to be honoring celebrating the Declaration [of Independence], and we probably right now are facing, in some ways, the most concerted assault, potentially, hopefully it won't happen. But these rumblings, this is really worrisome stuff. This is preparing the ground, as you say, for serious pushback against, I think, the a free and fair election this November. So people ought to take this seriously." - YouTube youtu.be
Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) is attempting to usher through a party-line immigration enforcement funding bill on Tuesday in what will be a test of party unity despite a slim margin in the House. The $70 billion legislation will give funding to Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, which were left out of a Department […]
Los Angeles mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt missing out on the general election is the latest example of voters in a large, Democrat-run city flirting with change but then opting to maintain the status quo. This isn’t even the first time this has happened in Los Angeles. Mayor Karen Bass was elected four years ago over […]
The juvenile delinquents who have been put in charge of the White House website and social media have officially gone full Nazi by creating an “Enemies List” of “Leftist Influencers” on WhiteHouse.gov The list is fairly short for now, but the fact that it exists at all is proof that the Trump-controlled government is continuing to follow a propaganda playbook that was originally written in German in the 1930s. It was then later translated into Russian before finally reaching our shores and becoming a hybrid of their most horrifically successful tactics, with just enough of The Handmaid’s Tale for good measure added in over the last few years.All of which has been boosted by MAGA-dominated social media for more than a decade. Trump’s attacks on the press began almost exactly 11 years ago, when he first descended the tacky gold escalator in his tacky gold tower to fling his loaded diaper all over our political norms. It was then that he began poisoning the vernacular with the term “fake news media,” which is now so common that it’s used by Republican members of Congress who allowed themselves to be compromised thanks to blackmail (Russian Tactics 101, for those of you who are new to the subject). Those who once spoke out against Trump are now fully owned by him, as is the right-wing media, which helps boost his lies instead of exposing them. CBS News has already fallen to him, but that’s not enough. Hitler had his Lügenpresse; Trump has “Fake News Media.” Which is full-on projection language, considering he’s been abetted by Fox, Newsmax, and OAN, along with “MAGA journalists” like Nick Shirley, who are on the White House payroll to create distractions from the Epstein Files. THIS is what the real Fake News Media looks like.Why yes, that’s my tweet from October 2025, when these kids with cameras in their phones were calling themselves “journalists” because it would continue to delegitimize the work done by actual, real journalists who were exposing the truth about the Trump administration.Like everything else Trump does, that move came with a body count in Minneapolis. I’ve written here before about his specific attacks on women in the media, which happened yet again this week when he attacked CNN’s Kaitlan Collins during a press briefing in the Oval Office--before she had even said a word.Trump’s attacks on the media have escalated drastically over the last few months as both his mental and physical health have been rapidly declining in front of the entire world. Interestingly, the “Leftist Influencers” who are being targeted have all reported on Trump’s health. David Pakman, Ed Krassenstein, and Brian Tyler Cohen are all on the WHITE HOUSE WEBSITE, each of them being made out to be enemies of the State. They’re all essentially being doxxed by Donald Trump, all for daring to always tell the truth about him. A quick word about Ed Krassenstein and his brother, Brian. They’ve had a bad rep for being opportunistic grifters for as long as I can remember. They claim to be Democrats, but have tweeted support for Trump in the past, and have even justified buying a Cybertruck. These aren’t all of the things about them, but this is my way of saying that they are not universally beloved by liberals, and that would include me. Also, not all liberals are Leftists, just to be clear. Anyway, any controversies connected to the Krassensteins are besides the point; neither of them deserves to be targeted by the White House as a distraction from the Epstein Files. Freedom of the Press is guaranteed by the Constitution, as is Freedom of Speech. Any attack on any member of the press is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. Those of us who’ve also been writing the truth about Trump for a long time are wondering when we’ll be added to that list. It’s not as if we don’t have digital footprints like those I’ve mentioned; some of us have larger platforms than others. And a few of us are blocked by Trump on Twitter. I’ve been blocked since August 2015, which is why I’m probably not on the list yet.But it’s not just those “influencers” being targeted for talking about Trump on their podcasts. The White House is now also threatening people for simply posting on social media about Trump, Jeffrey Epstein, and Melania. Writer Anthony Andrews tweeted on Saturday that he had received a “cease and desist” order for his Twitter posts and shared screenshots from the order. I don’t care if you voted for Trump three times; that should make you furious. MAGA tweets far worse things than that about Democrats all day, every day. I’m especially rolling my eyes at the “GOVERN YOURSELF ACCORDINGLY” part, considering that Andrews was doing exactly that. He was exercising his Constitutional right to free speech, which includes being able to openly criticize any member of the United States government. He was sharing knowledge about the Epstein Files.
A federal judge on Monday struck down the Trump administration's $100,000 fee on new H-1B visas. The administration announced the fee as a way of preventing foreign workers from taking American jobs.
