Trump: Israel Should Destroy Iran’s Nuclear Weapons Program

/2 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump said Friday in Fayetteville, North Carolina, that Israel should destroy Iran’s nuclear weapons program in response to the second massive ballistic missile attack by the Iranian regime earlier this week.

Trump was responding to questions during a town hall, and drew a contrast between his policies and those of President Joe Biden, who said earlier this week that Israel should not hit Iran’s nuclear program or oil facilities.

Trump said:

I listened to Biden yesterday, you know, since I went under the wing, you know, I used to go under the wing of the aircraft. Nobody ever did that before. I did all of a sudden, Biden started — but he only takes like a half a question, usually can’t answer it. [Laughter] But they asked him, what do you think about, what do you think about Iran? Would you hit Iran? And he goes, “A long as they don’t hit the nuclear stuff.” That’s the thing you want to hit, right? I said, I think he’s got that one wrong. Isn’t that what you’re supposed to hit? I mean, it’s the most, it’s the biggest risk. We have nuclear weapons, the power of nuclear weapons, the power of weaponry. You know, I rebuilt the entire military jets, everything I built it, including nuclear and I hated to build the nuclear, but I got to know firsthand the power of that stuff, and I’ll tell you what, we have to be totally prepared. We have to be absolutely prepared. But when they asked him that question, the answer should have been hit the nuclear first and worry about the rest later. And that’s why they should, if they’re going to do it, if they’re going to do it, they’re going to do it, but we’ll find out whatever their plans are.

Trump also talked about his success in promoting peace through the Abraham Accords, and said that the U.S. could avoid war by being feared and respected again by America’s enemies and allies throughout the world. (Read more from “Trump: Israel Should Destroy Iran’s Nuclear Weapons Program” HERE)

White House Reporters Audibly Shocked at Sight of Joe Biden in White House Briefing Room

/1 Comment/in , /by

Reporters in the White House press briefing were audibly shocked when President Joe Biden entered the room Friday to take questions for the first time in his administration.

Biden paid a surprise visit to the James S. Brady Press Briefing Room to give remarks about the latest jobs report and take several questions for about 15 minutes. Reporters gasped when the president entered the room for the first time in his presidency alongside White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre.

When Biden began his fourth year in office, he was averaging the lowest number of press conferences per year, 11, since former President Ronald Reagan, according to data compiled by the University of California at Santa Barbara’s American Presidency Project. As of Feb. 2024, Biden had participated in fewer interviews with media outlets than his predecessors, only doing 86 interviews since his inauguration in 2021, according to NBC News.

The president appeared in the briefing room after an early morning report from Axios that the president has had no public events scheduled on 43 of the 75 days since he ended his 2024 campaign. Of the public events the president did participate in, only two were scheduled before 11 a.m., zero before 10 a.m. and five after 5 p.m., the Axios analysis shows. The president has also taken all calls and meetings with world leaders, except for one instance, between the hours of 11 a.m. and 5 p.m since leaving the race, Axios reported.

IG Report: DHS Admitting Noncitizens Without ID May ‘Increase National Security Risks’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Federal agencies tasked with protecting U.S. borders have allowed illegal border crossers to enter the United States without adequate vetting and board domestic flights, a new Department of Homeland Security inspector general report found.

The 37-page document published on September 30 may be heavily redacted, but it paints a clear picture of the “potential risk” posed to Americans thanks to the willingness of the U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, and the Transportation Security Agency to admit noncitizens without ID into the country.

“Under current processes, CBP and ICE cannot ensure they are keeping high-risk noncitizens without identification from entering the country. Additionally, TSA cannot ensure its vetting and screening procedures prevent high-risk noncitizens who may pose a threat to the flying public from boarding domestic flights,” the report states.

Federal law deems noncitizens without ID “not admissible into the country” and potentially “subject … to removal from the United States without further hearing or review.” According to Inspector General Joseph V. Cuffari, however, CBP and ICE routinely use the law’s asylum and humanitarian exceptions to offer documentation to noncitizens without ID based solely on “self-reported biographical information.”

Neither agency, the report warned, “could determine how many of the millions of noncitizens seeking entry in the United States each year entered without identification and whose self-reported biographic information was accepted.” (Read more from “IG Report: DHS Admitting Noncitizens Without ID May ‘Increase National Security Risks’” HERE)

Joe Rogan Laughs as He Reads Trump’s Savage Letter To Mark Cuban After His Show ‘Benefactor’ Was Axed

/0 Comments/in , , /by

We may now have a clearer idea as to why Mark Cuban’s Stage 5 TDS has kicked into overdrive lately. Cuban is known for being an unhinged loudmouth, but lately, he’s really cranked it up a notch, channeling his inner “Keith Olbermann.” Every chance he gets, he’s ranting and raving about President Trump.

Many folks have been wondering what’s going on with Mark Cuban and why he’s been so agitated with Trump lately. Way more than usual. Sure, it’s an election year, but even so, Mark really seemed extra peeved. Well, we may finally have the answer, thanks to a newly revealed 2024 letter that President Trump sent to Cuban. As you know, Trump is famous for his letter-writing—whether it’s heartwarming or brutally savage, he knows how to make an impact. And after Cuban’s show “The Benefactor” got axed, Trump sent him one of those classic, slicing-and-dicing letters. It’s a doozy.

U.S. To Provide $157 Million in Humanitarian Aid to People Affected by ‘Crisis in Lebanon’

/0 Comments/in , /by

The United States announced that it would be providing $157 million in humanitarian aid to address the “crisis in Lebanon” and those who have been affected by it.

In a press release on Friday, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken revealed that the “nearly $157 million” in humanitarian assistance would go towards addressing “new and existing needs to internally displaced persons and refugee populations” for communities in Lebanon.

“The United States will provide nearly $157 million in new U.S. humanitarian assistance to support populations affected by conflict in Lebanon and the region,” Blinken said in the press release. “This funding will address new and existing needs of internally displaced persons and refugee populations inside Lebanon and the communities that host them. The assistance will also support those fleeing to neighboring Syria.”

The press release from Blinken comes as Israel has been waging war against Hezbollah terrorists located in Lebanon.

Breitbart News Senior Editor-at-Large Joel Pollak reported that over the course of Thursday and Friday, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) had continued advancing on Hezbollah terrorists, carrying out airstrikes. Within “four days of combat,” the IDF was reported to have killed more than 200 Hezbollah terrorists.

WATCH: News Host Goes Scorched Earth on Reporters for Not Asking Biden About Hurricane Victims During Briefing

/0 Comments/in , /by

Fox News host Sandra Smith criticized White House reporters Friday for not asking President Joe Biden questions about the victims of Hurricane Helene during a press briefing.

Over 200 people were killed by the hurricane, with people in North Carolina, South Carolina and Georgia still struggling to recover from wind damage and flooding. Smith noted the conditions in the southeast and questioned why reporters failed to ask what the Biden administration was doing to alleviate the “absolute devastation” when the president appeared for the press briefing.

“It is still dire circumstances there, and Mike, worth pointing out when that White House press briefing was happening, what the opportunity was that those journalists had to ask questions of the president, I didn’t any hear questions about the storm damage or the relief efforts. There are people who are still stranded in their homes right now,” Smith said.

PATHETIC: Kamala Announces $750 for Helene Victims After WH Pledged Another $8B for Ukraine

/29 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Vice President Kamala Harris announced $750 in aid for Hurricane Helene victims, just days after her and President Joe Biden’s administration announced $8 billion in a new installment of aid for Ukraine.

Harris spent the weekend campaigning on the West Coast as the hurricane unleashed deadly destruction across the nation’s southwest, killing hundreds of Americans, with hundreds more still missing.

On Wednesday, Harris visited Georgia — two days after former President Donald Trump visited — and announced what many are criticizing as a measly amount of aid for hurricane victims: $750.

Harris touted during remarks in Augusta, Georgia, “The federal relief and assistance that we have been providing has included FEMA providing $750 for folks who need immediate needs being met, such as food, baby formula, and the like. And you can apply now.”

Sorry, Hurricane Victims: Harris-Biden Already Spent Your Relief Funds on Migrants

By New York Post. The next Americans to get slammed by the Harris-Biden border disaster: hurricane victims!

Homeland Security chief Alejandro Mayorkas, who also oversees the Federal Emergency Management Agency, announced Wednesday that “FEMA does not have the funds to make it” through the rest of hurricane season — because it’s already emptied its emergency kitty on illegal-migrant expenses.

It’s now sending Helene victims $750 checks to finish off of a fund of just $10 million to help hurricane survivors buy groceries. . .

Meanwhile, FEMA’s devoted $641 million this year just to help state and local governments handle the influx.

(Of course, Mayor Adams will point out that this federal help is far short of what localities need to cover their migrant costs. But Biden’s not asking for an appropriation to pay for that, because then he’d have to admit the cost of his open-border policies: Far better to just deplete FEMA’s funds, then tell Adams and other mayors to just suck it up, or else).

To be fair, it’s not just Mayorkas who didn’t prep properly for this year’s hurricanes: Kamala Harris reportedly skipped the annual pre-storm-season briefing, indeed has opted out every year she’s been veep.

Political Prisoner: Judge Sentences Defiant Tina Peters to 9 Years

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Reuters. A former Colorado county clerk convicted of illegally tampering with voting machines was sentenced to nine years in prison on Thursday after repeating Donald Trump’s false claims of voter fraud in the 2020 U.S. presidential election at her court hearing.

Tina Peters was convicted at trial of seven counts of engaging in a security breach for opening Mesa County, Colorado’s election computers to Trump allies searching for evidence of fraud.

Judge Matthew Barrett sharply rebuked Tina Peters for her lack of remorse, calling her a “charlatan” who abused her position and betrayed her oath of office.

“You are no hero,” Barrett said. “You abused your position and you’re a charlatan who used, and is still using, your prior position in office to peddle a snake oil that’s been proven to be junk time and time again.”

The sentencing was held just weeks before the Nov. 5 presidential election between former president Trump, a Republican, and Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris. (Read more from “Political Prisoner: Judge Sentences Defiant Tina Peters to 9 Years” HERE)

Former Colorado county clerk Tina Peters sentenced to 9 years

By AP News. . .Jurors found Peters guilty in August for allowing a man to misuse a security card to access to the Mesa County election system and for being deceptive about that person’s identity. . .

At trial, prosecutors said Peters, a Republican, was seeking fame and became “fixated” on voting problems after becoming involved with those who had questioned the accuracy of the presidential election results.

A one-time hero to election deniers, Peters has been unapologetic about what happened.

Before being sentenced, Peters insisted that everything she did to try to unroot what she believed was fraud was for the greater good.

“I’ve never done anything with malice to break the law. I’ve only wanted to serve the people of Mesa County,” she told the court. (Read more from “Former Colorado county clerk Tina Peters sentenced to 9 years” HERE)
