MUST WATCH: Listen to Crowd Gasp as Trump Blasts ‘Fake News’ Reporter: ‘Very Rude’

/8 Comments/in , , /by

By ABC 3340. Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday engaged in a fiery exchange with a reporter while taking questions at an event hosted by the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).

The group announced Tuesday Trump would participate in a Q&A session with several of its journalists. In its announcement, the NABJ acknowledged Vice President Kamala Harris “was also invited to participate in this year’s convention; her confirmation is pending.”

This acknowledgement, however, did little to quell apparent outrage among members and anti-Trump onlookers. Acknowledging Trump’s invite, Washington Post columnist Karen Attiah announced via X she would step down as co-chair for the group’s 2024 convention in Chicago.

At the event, ABC News reporter Rachel Scott opened by “addressing the elephant in the room” and asked why Black voters should support Trump. She bolstered the question by accusing him of frequently using racist rhetoric while addressing politicians and journalists of color.

“First of all, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question in such a horrible manner,” Trump said to laughter and murmurs from the crowd. “You don’t even say ‘hello, how are you?’ Are you with ABC because I think they’re a fake news network, a terrible network.”

‘Disgraceful’: Listen to Crowd Gasp as Trump Scolds Reporter for ‘Hostile’ Attack

By WND. A crowd at the conference for the National Association of Black Journalists on Wednesday gasped, and there even were cheers, when President Donald Trump scolded a rude reporter who attacked him with list of loaded statements. . .

Why should, ABC’s Rachel Scott demanded, blacks trust Trump after he allegedly made “false” claims about rivals, used negative descriptors for liberal prosecutors and said black journalists were asking stupid and racist questions.

Trump, who sat listening quietly during the attack, responded: “Well, first of all, I don’t think I’ve ever been asked a question so … in such a horrible manner.”

There was a collective gasp, interspersed with guffaws and laughter, from the crowd.

He continued, “You don’t even say, ‘Hello. How are you?’ Are you with ABC? Because I think they are a fake news network. A terrible network.” (Read more from “‘Disgraceful’: Listen to Crowd Gasp as Trump Scolds Reporter for ‘Hostile’ Attack” HERE)

Texas Scores ‘Major Victory’ Over Biden Administration

/2 Comments/in , /by

The 5th Circuit Court of Appeals has ruled in Texas’s favor, lifting an injunction that ordered the state to remove buoys it placed in the Rio Grande River to deter illegal border crossings.

The Biden Department of Justice brought a legal challenge against the Lone Star State last year for installing the buoys without federal authorization.

Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta claimed the floating barrier was a threat to navigation and presented a public safety concern. It also risked “damaging U.S. foreign policy” with Mexico over the country’s objection to the barrier.

In 2023, Texas deployed the buoys to address the historic levels of aliens attempting illegal, dangerous—and in some cases, deadly—river crossings. The Biden Administration then sued and demanded Texas remove the buoys and reopen the border. A federal district court granted the Biden Administration a preliminary injunction and ordered the buoys to be removed and a Fifth Circuit panel issued a split decision upholding the order. However, in January 2024, Attorney General Paxton secured an en banc rehearing before the Fifth Circuit.

The full court has now ruled that the district court’s flawed preliminary injunction misapplied the law and was an abuse of the lower court’s authority. The buoy barrier can remain in the river while proceedings continue at the district court level. (Texas Attorney General’s Office)

Top JFK Assassination Researcher: ‘Something is Fishy,’ Secret Service Covering Up Info on Trump Attack

/2 Comments/in , /by

Investigative journalist Gerald Posner — whose deeply researched studies of the murders of John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King, Jr. made him a preeminent authority on political assassinations — says he can understand why so many people think there’s “something fishy” about the official story of the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump.

Noting the belated admission by the Secret Service that Trump’s security team was denied requested resources before the July 13 assassination attempt, Posner asks, “Did they refuse to give Trump extra security for a two-year period?” They were almost creating a situation in which somebody could take a shot. Now I’m not saying that’s the case, but I understand why that speculation would be there.”

Posner lays out his analysis of the events in Butler, Pennsylvania, that left one man dead, seriously injured two others and wounded former President Trump in the most recent episode of the Drill Down podcast with Peter Schweizer and Eric Eggers.

Posner has been following the hearings into the Secret Service’s failure, and he has many questions. “We knew there have been screw-ups before, but they can’t keep it silent anymore because people who attend the rally take out their cell phones and start recording what happened. Everybody could see — ‘Hey, there he is! There’s that guy! Look at that guy on the roof! Hey, officers!’ — So, we know more than they are telling us. No wonder we think something is fishy here.”

Before the event, the shooter “was walking around with a range finder and apparently a large backpack and they were tracking him. And then the Secret Service was made aware, they’re saying they now knew 30 minutes in advance,” Posner says. “Why did they allow Trump to take that stage?” (Read more from “Top JFK Assassination Researcher: ‘Something is Fishy,’ Secret Service Covering Up Info on Trump Attack” HERE)

‘Bat**** Crazy’: Watch Kamala Boast of Rigging System So Taxpayers Pay for Transgender ‘Treatment’

/4 Comments/in , /by

Now that Kamala Harris has been installed as the top of the Democratic Party’s ballot this fall by leftist elites who pushed Joe Biden under the bus, so to speak, because of his declining mental abilities, some of her views are making the headlines.

Including that she has worked hard to force taxpayers to pay for transgender “health care,” apparently to include body-altering chemicals and surgical mutilations.

It is in a video that she explains how she “worked behind the scenes” to make sure taxpayers were billed for such treatments for prison inmates in California, where she served as attorney general for a time.

In the video interview, Harris states, “I learned that the California Department of Corrections, a client of mine, a client of the attorney general … they were standing in the way of surgeries for prisoners. There was a specific case. When I learned I worked behind the scenes to make sure not only that woman got the services … they changed the policy in the state of California so that every transgender inmate in the state would have access to the medical care they desired and need.” . . .

There was a theme among social media commenters:

“This VP is bat**** crazy.” (Read more from “‘Bat**** Crazy’: Watch Kamala Boast of Rigging System So Taxpayers Pay for Transgender ‘Treatment'” HERE)

Poll Shows 80% Continue to Support Israel

/3 Comments/in , /by

A new Harvard/Harris Poll has found that support for Israel among registered voters in the U.S. is still strong — and growing stronger.

The poll, conducted July 26-28 among 2,196 registered voters with a 2.1% margin of error, found that 80% of voters continue to support Israel in its war against Hamas — the same proportion as in June.

Nearly two-thirds — 66% — believe that Israel is trying to minimize civilian casualties, which is up from 62% in June. And 70% believe that a ceasefire should only happen when Hamas is removed from power in Gaza, up from 67% in June.

Similarly, 66% believe Israel should retaliate if Hezbollah continues to fire rockets into Israel, roughly unchanged from 67% in June. (Israel had not yet launched its June 30 airstrike on Hezbollah’s second-in-command, Fu’ad Shukr.

The poll found that Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump leads presumptive Democratic nominee Vice President Kamala Harris by 3 points, or by 4 points when “unsure” is not an option. (Read more from “Poll Shows 80% Continue to Support Israel” HERE)

White House Melts Down Over Trump Calling Kamala Harris a ‘DEI Hire’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Critics of Vice President Kamala Harris claim she was only picked to be President Joe Biden’s running mate because of her race and the left’s goal of checking its DEI boxes.

Former President Donald Trump pointed just that out to a crowd during the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ).

“I’ve known her for a long time, indirectly, not directly… and she was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” Trump said. “I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn Black. And now she wants to be known as Black. So, I don’t know, is she Indian or is she Black?”

The White House has a total liberal meltdown over Trump’s “hostile” comments and claiming the former president “failed” Black families across the U.S.

Harris’ campaign communications director, Michael Tyler, also accused Trump of trying to take back the White House with “Project 2025,” which the Republican has repeatedly confirmed he has no part of. (Read more from “White House Melts Down Over Trump Calling Kamala Harris a ‘DEI Hire'” HERE)

Dad Wins Full Custody of Son, 4, After Child’s Mother Allegedly Tried to Raise Him Non-Binary

/2 Comments/in , /by

A California father said he’s been granted full custody of his 4-year-old son following a protracted legal battle with the boy’s mother — who allegedly forced the child to wear dresses and glitter because she wanted to raise him as non-binary.

Harrison Tinsley told “The Daily Signal Podcast” that he prevailed in the years-long court battle to win full physical custody of Sawyer, which the dad likened to “watching a miracle.”

“I know he’s a boy. He wants to be a boy. He adamantly expresses that,” Tinsley told host Virginia Allen. “If you say anything to the contrary he gets very upset.”

Tinsley alleged that Sawyer’s mother — who he said identifies as a lesbian and non-binary herself — tried to push her gender ideology onto the child from the time he was a baby.

This included a cruel campaign of gaslighting like referring to Sawyer with they/them pronouns over his protestations, and forcing him to wear girls’ diapers, dresses and makeup, the dad claimed.

9/11 Mastermind KSM and Two Other Terrorists Awaiting Trial on Guantanamo Bay Strike Plea Deals

/3 Comments/in , /by

The alleged mastermind of the Sept. 11 terror attacks and two other terrorists being held on Guantánamo Bay will be spared the death penalty under a deal with prosecutors, it was revealed Wednesday.

The announcement came as a bitter pill to swallow for victims’ families who have anxiously awaited the conclusion of the case for nearly 24 years — many of whom felt death was the only appropriate punishment for the perpetrators of the heinous attacks.

A spokesperson for the Office of Military Commissions (OMC), which is prosecuting the case, confirmed it had entered into pre-trial agreements with Khalid Sheikh Mohammed — the accused principal architect of the al Qaeda attacks — and two alleged co-conspirators, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin Attash and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi, all of whom have been held at the US military prison on the coast of Cuba since 2003.

“In exchange for removal of the death penalty as a possible punishment, these three Accused have agreed to plead guilty to all of the charged offenses, including the murder of the 2,976 people listed in the charge sheet,” said a letter signed by Rear Adm. Aaron C. Rugh, chief prosecutor for the OMC, and sent to victims’ families Wednesday.

News that the death penalty was no longer on the table for the suspects — whose alleged actions killed nearly 3,000 in the worst terror attack on US soil in American history — came as a gut punch to victims’ families.

Trump Says Harris ‘Became a Black Person’ for Political Purposes During Animated Chicago Black Journalists Event

/4 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump told a black journalist conference Wednesday that he “didn’t know” Vice President Kamala Harris was “black” until recently — before trashing her as “fake, fake, fake” later at a rally in Pennsylvania.

The stunning remark about Harris’ racial identity came as Trump, 78, sought to woo minority voters by addressing the Windy City convention of the National Association for Black Journalists.

“I’ve known her a long time indirectly — not directly very much — and she was always of Indian heritage and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was black — until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black,” Trump said.

“And now she wants to be known as black, so I don’t know — is she Indian or is she black? But you know what? I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t.”

Trump added: “She was Indian all of the way, and then all of a sudden she made a turn, and she went, she became a black person and I think somebody should look into that.” (Read more from “Trump Says Harris ‘Became a Black Person’ for Political Purposes During Animated Chicago Black Journalists Event” HERE)

WATCH: Video Shows Attempted-Trump Assassin on Roof Before Shooting

/1 Comment/in , /by

A new video appears to show Thomas Crooks moving across a roof in plain sight minutes before attempting to shoot Donald Trump.

In the video, taken by James Copenhaver, who was injured in the shooting, a figure is seen moving across the roof of the American Glass Research building moments before gunfire rang out in Butler, Pennsylvania.

The video was taken at 6.08pm on July 13, three minutes before Crooks, 20, opened fire, narrowly missing the former president.

One bullet grazed Trump’s ear, while Corey Comperatore, a local fire chief and Trump supporter, was killed and two other rally attendees were injured.

The shooting led to a bipartisan outcry over the security failures and last week Kimberly Cheatle resigned as director of the Secret Service after accepting responsibility for the “significant” problems surrounding the shooting.
