Reporter Uses ABC News’ Airwaves to Pop Democrats’ Bubble About Biden’s Re-Election Chances

/0 Comments/in , /by

An NPR reporter delivered news from the campaign trail on Sunday that doesn’t look good for President Joe Biden.

During a roundtable discussion on ABC News’ “This Week,” NPR correspondent Asma Khalid confirmed that voters who typically compose the “core” of the Democratic Party lack enthusiasm for Biden’s re-election.

Khalid was pushing back on Texas Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett’s claim that voters are falsely “glamorizing” Donald Trump’s presidency.

“What I’ve already heard in so many of my interviews with people is a lackluster sense of enthusiasm,” she said of voters’ attitudes toward Biden, “whether it’s black voters, whether it’s — you’d call them, sort of like, disaffected Republicans.” . . .

“There’s a whole bunch of things that went right for Biden, I would argue, in 2020: It was unity and opposition to Donald Trump,” she explained. “To make this a referendum is what the Biden campaign wants, but it’s really challenging because many voters are looking at this election as a referendum on [Biden].”

Video Shows Homeless Woman Brutally Attacking Bus Driver After Allegedly Demanding a Free Ride

/1 Comment/in , /by

A vicious fight between a Los Angeles bus driver and the homeless woman who attacked her was captured on cellphone video.

The Los Angeles Police Department said officers responded to the incident at about 12:40 p.m. on Sunday near Central Avenue and Jefferson Boulevard.

Witnesses said that the woman tried to get on the L.A. Dash bus without paying her fare and the bus driver refused, telling her she could not. The woman then attacked the female bus driver and dragged her off the bus from behind her plexiglass safety barrier.

Video shows the woman shoving and punching the driver, who struggles with her and yells, “Get off me!” several times.

The homeless woman was able to punch the driver at least once in the face before the driver got back on the bus and pushed the attacker off while she closed the door.

Alvin Bragg’s Team Finally Produced Docs at Center of Case Against Trump — There Was Just One Catch

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Prosecutors finally displayed the documents at the heart of Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg’s case against former President Donald Trump on Monday, but have yet to establish a direct link to demonstrate Trump’s culpability.

Until Monday, prosecutors had been focused on setting up other pieces of their case: the context for the $130,000 payment made to porn star Stormy Daniels to keep her quiet about claims of a sexual encounter and the broader “conspiracy” to influence the 2016 election they allege Trump was involved in. Monday’s witnesses — former Trump Organization controller Jeffrey McConney and Trump Organization accounts payable supervisor Deborah Tarasoff — offered starkly different testimony than earlier witnesses like David Pecker and Keith Davidson, providing no salacious celebrity stories and an almost exclusive focus on accounting.

Through their testimony, prosecutors introduced the invoices, ledger entries and checks the 34-felony count indictment against Trump claims he falsified, allegedly to reimburse his former attorney Michael Cohen for the Daniels payment.

Bragg was only able to bring the core charges for falsifying business records, which had passed the statute of limitations, by charging them as felonies and alleging they were done to conceal or commit another crime, which is why much of the prosecution’s case has focused on highlighting Trump’s involvement in the alleged “conspiracy.”

During cross examination with McConney and Tarasoff, Trump’s defense sought to cast doubt on the president’s personal responsibility by raising questions about his direct involvement in repaying Cohen.

Biden’s Plan to Admit Gaza Refugees Sparks National Security Concerns

/0 Comments/in , /by

A reported plan by the Biden administration to potentially admit Palestinians from Gaza as refugees into the United States has sparked concerns among immigration experts and lawmakers, who argue that such a move could pose significant national security risks.

Internal documents from the federal government, leaked to the media on Tuesday, suggest that the Biden White House is exploring options to offer permanent safe haven to Palestinians living in war-torn Gaza. While no official plan has been announced, critics have raised alarms over the potential consequences of admitting individuals from this region.

Immigration experts, speaking to the Daily Caller News Foundation, have criticized the proposed plan as contrary to the country’s interests. They warn about the risks associated with admitting foreign nationals from a conflict-ridden area with potential ties to terrorism. Instead, they advocate for relocating refugees to neighboring Middle Eastern countries.

Matt O’Brien, director of investigations for the Immigration Reform Law Institute, described the plan as “absurd” and prioritizing ideology over national security. He highlighted concerns about Hamas, the governing authority in Gaza, and the challenges of vetting individuals from the region due to distrust in official records.

Senator Joni Ernst of Iowa, along with 34 Republican senators, penned a letter to President Biden urging him to halt the reported plan. They raised concerns about the high level of support for Hamas among the Gazan population and the difficulty of properly vetting individuals from such a complex and volatile region.

The senators questioned the rationale behind admitting Gazan refugees, especially when nearby Arab countries, sympathetic to the Palestinian cause, have refused to accept them due to security concerns.

Eric Ruark, director of research and public relations for NumbersUSA, echoed these sentiments, emphasizing the need for caution in admitting individuals from Gaza. He emphasized that every American should be alarmed by the potential implementation of such a program.

Polling data from the Palestinian Center for Policy and Research has revealed widespread support for Hamas among Palestinians, raising further concerns about the potential for individuals with extremist ties to enter the United States under the proposed plan.

Biden Explodes Claim Abortions Are Needed for Women’s ‘Mental Health’

/0 Comments/in , /by

One of the arguments the abortion industry in America has used for years to support its demand for unlimited abortion is that it’s needed for a woman’s “mental health.”

The Biden administration just exploded that claim.

“And when a woman comes in with some grave mental health emergency, if she happens to be pregnant, it would be incredibly unethical to terminate her pregnancy. She might not be in a position to give any informed consent. Instead, the way you treat mental health emergency is to address what’s happening in the brain. If you’re having a psychotic episode, you administer antipsychotics,” explained Joe Biden’s solicitor general Elizabeth Prelogar.

The American Center for Law and Justice noted the comment came before the Supreme Court in arguments over a lawsuit over the Biden administration’s claim that emergency room physicians must do abortion on demand – irrespective of their own beliefs and state law.

The ACLJ explained, “Joe Biden has been called the most pro-abortion president in history, and understandably so. Yet every now and then something slips out from his administration that crosses up the pro-abortion narrative, such as when Biden referred to choosing ‘to abort a child’ instead of using some more obscure term like ‘fetus’ or ‘pregnancy.'” (Read more from “Biden Explodes Claim Abortions Are Needed for Women’s ‘Mental Health’” HERE)

Snack Recall: Products Pulled Due to Potentially Fatal Contamination

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Minnesota-based Hormel Foods Sales LLC has issued a recall for two Planters products produced at one of its facilities and distributed to select states in the southeast U.S. due to concerns over potential listeria contamination. The affected products, Honey Roasted Peanuts and Deluxe Lightly Salted Mixed Nuts, were distributed to Publix and Dollar Tree warehouses across Florida, Georgia, Alabama, North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia.

The discovery of listeria monocytogenes in the packaged contents prompted the voluntary recall. Listeria monocytogenes is a bacterium that can cause severe infections, particularly in vulnerable populations such as young children, the elderly, and individuals with weakened immune systems.

Symptoms of listeria infection may include high fever, severe headache, stiffness, nausea, abdominal pain, and diarrhea. In pregnant women, listeria infections can lead to miscarriages or stillbirths.

The recall specifically targets 4-ounce packages of Planters Honey Roasted Peanuts and 8.75-ounce cans of Planters Deluxe Lightly Salted Mixed Nuts. Consumers are advised to check the “Best if Used By Date” and UPC code on the packaging to identify the affected products. The UPC code for Honey Roasted Peanuts is 2900002097 with a best-by date of April 11, 2025, while Deluxe Lightly Salted Mixed Nuts bear the UPC code 2900001621 and a best-by date of April 5, 2026.

Hormel assures consumers that these are the only products affected by the recall and that no illnesses have been reported thus far.

Retailers have been notified, and consumers in possession of the recalled products are urged not to consume them. Instead, they should either discard the items or return them to the store of purchase for a replacement or full refund.

Democrat Rhetoric Gets Violent: Maxine Claims Trump Supporters ‘Training up in the Hills’ for Civil War

/0 Comments/in , /by

Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) said on this week’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “The Sunday Show” that the Department of Justice should investigate “right-wing organizations” who supported former President Donald Trump “training up in the hill” for a civil war.

Waters said, “You cannot trust anything that Donald Trump has to say no matter if he loses he is going to say it was fraud. He still has not accepted what happened in the last presidential election. We have to be very concerned about a former president of the United States talking about attacking his own country, talking about perhaps a bloodbath, talking about perhaps there is going to be trouble. He said it in so many different ways we should take him seriously. This man does not believe in the Constitution. He wants to be a dictator. This is a dangerous human being. We have to know what our country is going to do to protect us from him.” (Read more from “Democrat Rhetoric Gets Violent: Maxine Claims Trump Supporters ‘Training up in the Hills’ for Civil War” HERE)

Hamas Changed Cease-Fire Deal to Count Hostages as ‘Alive’ or ‘Bodies’ in Proposed Prisoner Swap: Report

/2 Comments/in , /by

Hamas changed the language in the cease-fire deal it accepted Monday to count the bodies of dead hostages in a proposed swap for Palestinian prisoners, according to a shocking report.

The deal signed by Hamas also included an end to the war in Gaza — something the Israeli side said it would not accept.

Israeli officials have blasted the proposal as significantly different from what Israel had initially said it would agree to.

One of the biggest changes came in the language around the 33 Israeli hostages who were set to be released in exchange for a cease-fire.

While the original deal called for 33 living hostages, Hamas changed the wording to include 33 hostages “alive or bodies,” officials told public broadcaster KAN TV. (Read more from “Hamas Changed Cease-Fire Deal to Count Hostages as ‘Alive’ or ‘Bodies’ in Proposed Prisoner Swap: Report” HERE)

Nathan Wade Makes Absurd Claim About the Moment He and Fani Willis Ended Their Love Affair

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former Donald Trump prosecutor Nathan Wade made an absurd claim that he and Fani Willis ended their affair the “moment” they realized they were in love with each other — a statement completely at odds with his ex-lover’s version of events.

Speaking to ABC’s “Good Morning America,” Wade claimed he developed feelings for the Fulton County district attorney, who appointed him as special prosecutor to the election fraud case in 2021 “over time.”

“You don’t plan to fall in love,” he told the show, in his first interview since he was made to resign from the case in March.

“You don’t plan to have some relationship in the workplace. You don’t set out to do that. Those things develop organically. They develop over time.

“The minute we had that sobering moment, we discontinued it,” he claimed. (Read more from “Nathan Wade Makes Absurd Claim About the Moment He and Fani Willis Ended Their Love Affair” HERE)

Trump: Arrest Jack Smith After Special Counsel Admits Lying to Court

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump this weekend called for Jack Smith to be arrested after the Special Counsel admitted in a court filing that he lied to the court about the classified documents seized from Mar-a-Lago. . .

Jack Smith admitted he lied to the Court about the classified documents seized from Mar-a-Lago in a motion filed late Friday night.

Special Counsel Jack Smith on Friday evening responded to Trump’s co-defendant Walt Nauta’s motion to extend a deadline for disclosures in the classified documents case.

Recall that Walt Nauta, a former White House employee and Navy veteran who worked valet for Trump and served as a personal staffer at Mar-a-Lago was indicted along with Trump last year.

In a motion filed late Friday, Jack Smith admitted the FBI messed with the boxes containing “classified” documents they seized from Trump and can’t be sure the order or the placement of the documents. (Read more from “Trump: Arrest Jack Smith After Special Counsel Admits Lying to Court” HERE)
