Ex-Obama Strategist Warns of ‘Terrible Mistake’ That Could Cost Biden the White House

David Axelrod, a Democratic strategist who worked in former President Barack Obama’s administration, slammed President Joe Biden on his economic messaging in a CNN interview Wednesday.

Axelrod explained that Biden should be appealing to Americans who are concerned about the cost of living, rather than touting how strong the economy is. He says Biden “should lead with empathy,” or his “pride” could cost him the White House.

Axelrod was responding to a CNN interview with Biden in which he touted the economy and questioned the efficacy of polls that showed that Americans trusted former President Donald Trump on the economy than him.

“The polling data has been wrong all along,” Biden said. “You guys do a poll at CNN, how many folks do you have to call to get one response? The idea that we’re in a situation where things are so bad … when I started this administration, people were saying there’s going to be a collapse in the economy. We have the strongest economy in the world. Let me say that again: in the world.” (Read more from “Ex-Obama Strategist Warns of ‘Terrible Mistake’ That Could Cost Biden the White House” HERE)

RFK Jr. Says He’s Against Government Limits on Abortion

Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he’s against government limits on abortion at the federal or state level, backing legal abortions through the entire gestational period while arguing the state should not play a role in determining abortion access.

In a podcast interview with Sage Steele that was released Wednesday, Kennedy said he doesn’t “trust government to have jurisdiction over people’s bodies” and believes “we need to leave it to the woman … to make those decisions.” Kennedy stressed he believes “every abortion is a tragedy” and pledged as president to make child care more affordable to reduce pressures on women who are considering abortion due to high costs.

When pressed by Steele if he supports allowing individual states to determine abortion access for women, Kennedy said, “We shouldn’t have government involved.” . . .

“Even if it’s full term?” Steele asked, referring to the possibility of an abortion near the expected delivery date of a child.

“Even if it’s full term,” Kennedy replied. (Read more from “RFK Jr. Says He’s Against Government Limits on Abortion” HERE)

2019 Attack on Trump Comes Back to Bite Biden: He ‘Endorses His Own Impeachment’

Critics mocked President Joe Biden over a resurfaced tweet from 2019, saying that what he had meant to be an attack on then-President Donald Trump turned out to be a prescient endorsement of his own impeachment.

Biden’s tweet, sent amid the furor over Trump’s phone call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, claimed that Democrats were right to impeach him for suggesting he’d withhold promised aid money and munitions if certain conditions were not met.

“President Trump withheld Congressionally appropriated aid to Ukraine unless they granted him a political favor,” Biden tweeted on October 18, 2019. “It’s the definition of quid pro quo. This is no joke — Trump continues to put his own personal, political interests ahead of the national interest. He must be impeached.”

But as a number of critics had pointed out, what Biden said on CNN on Wednesday — that he would withhold ammunition that had already been promised and approved by Congress if Israel mounted a ground offensive in Rafah — amounted to the same thing.

DEEP STATE: Johnson Vows to Protect Jack Smith Hours After Democrats Save His Speakership

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) wasted little time after 163 Democrats voted to save his speakership to announce he would not use Congress’s constitutional power of the purse to stop special counsel Jack Smith’s “lawfare” against Donald Trump.

The Speaker, in some of his earliest public comments after Democrats saved his gavel, refused to make any attempt to defund Smith’s office as it continues its prosecutions of Trump.

“That’s not something you wave a wand and just eliminate the special counsel as a provision,” Johnson told Politico. “There is a necessity for a function like that, because sometimes the Department of Justice — which is an executive branch agency — can’t necessarily, without a conflict of interest, investigate or prosecute the president who’s their boss, or the president’s family.”

When asked straightforwardly if he would write language eliminating Smith’s job into appropriations bills, Johnson replied “no.”

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) disdainfully pointed out Johnson’s statement on X, writing, “Mike Johnson when asked if he will stop the witch hunt that aims to throw President Trump in jail FOR LIFE!” (Read more from “Johnson Vows to Protect Jack Smith Hours After Democrats Save His Speakership” HERE)

This Pro-Hamas Student at Princeton Shows How Weak and Soft the Left Is

It’s not enough that pro-Hamas mayhem has overtaken college campuses nationwide. We now have these students, though many are probably professional agitators, going on hunger strikes to protest the war in Gaza. We should put “hunger strike” in quotes since this is intermittent fasting. These kids are taking snack breaks—it’s the weakest sauce hunger strike ever. Yet, at Princeton, one student who claims to be immunocompromised complained that she was dying from her self-imposed hunger strike and blamed the school for weakening her.

“This is absolutely unfair. My peers and I, we are starving. We are physically exhausted. I am quite literally shaking right now, as you can see,” said the pro-Hamas supporter.

And? This decision was yours to make. Israel isn’t going to withdraw because some idiots decided to starve themselves for terrorists. Biden may be messing with arms shipments to Israel, which is reckless, but even this administration isn’t going to abandon Israel, though it might seem that way right now.

WIN: Appeals Court to Revisit Decision Regarding DA Fani Willis’ Involvement in Trump Case

In a significant development, a Georgia appellate court has agreed to review a decision allowing Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis to continue overseeing a high-profile 2020 election interference case involving former President Donald Trump and his associates, despite concerns regarding her relationship with a subordinate.

The Court of Appeals of the State of Georgia issued a brief order on Wednesday, granting a request from the defense to review a lower-court ruling made in March. The order stipulates that the appellant has ten days to file a notice of appeal.

At the heart of the matter is Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee’s determination that the defendants failed to substantiate a conflict of interest arising from a romantic relationship between Willis and her special prosecutor, Nathan Wade. Although Judge McAfee acknowledged concerns about the “appearance of impropriety,” he permitted Willis to continue leading the case only after Wade resigned, presenting her with the alternative option of stepping down.

Trump and his co-defendants have vehemently argued for Willis’s disqualification, contending that her romantic involvement with Wade tainted the proceedings. Willis, on the other hand, has insisted that there is no basis for a review of the lower-court ruling.

According to reports, Trump and his co-defendants are expected to request a stay of proceedings while the appeal unfolds, following McAfee’s refusal to halt the process. While a trial date is yet to be determined, Willis reportedly aims to conclude proceedings before the 2024 election.

Trump and 18 co-defendants have entered not guilty pleas to multiple charges in the Georgia election case, with four individuals reaching plea deals. As Trump pursues a potential return to the White House, he continues to deny any wrongdoing across various legal battles.

Stormy Daniels’ Former Attorney Releases Scathing Statement in Response to Her Testimony Against Trump

Porn actress Stormy Daniels was called to the stand on Tuesday by the prosecution in the New York criminal case against former President Donald Trump.

Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg (D) charged Trump with 34 felony counts for allegedly falsifying business records in an attempt to conceal a $130,000 so-called “hush money” payment to Daniels, who claimed the two had an affair. Trump has pleaded not guilty to all charges and denied Daniels’ allegations. . .

Trump’s legal team requested a mistrial Tuesday, claiming that during her direct examination, Daniels told a story that differed from her previous public statements, Blaze News previously reported.

Following Daniels’ testimony, her former attorney Michael Avenatti posted a scathing statement on X. Avenatti, who had been disbarred and is currently serving time in a federal penitentiary, claimed Daniels had committed the same crime Trump was being accused of in the case.

He explained that he was contacted last year by a producer working on a documentary about Daniels. He had considered participating in the documentary until he learned that Daniels was getting paid for it, calling it “a clear indication to me that the project lacked integrity, would be one-sided, and controlled by Daniels.”

Additionally, Avenatti claimed that the producer told him that Daniels was going to be “secretly paid” to hide the money because “she owed Trump hundreds of thousands of dollars” following a defamation suit.

‘Liberal F***s’ Dana White Destroys Woke Netflix, Makes a Transgender Joke

The Netflix Roast of Tom Brady is the gift that keeps on giving to those tired of “woke” Hollywood, and Dana White is one of them.

White used his small amount of time in the roast to throw shade at Netflix itself, saying, “It pisses me off. I flew all the way out here and you guys give me 60 seconds? My name is Dana. Is that not trans enough for you liberal f***s?”

Despite his complaint, 60 seconds was more than enough time for White to get a roast of Brady in as well.

“Tom, you played for the Patriots for so long that I was actually starting to feel like you were from Boston. Then I saw you running, I was like, ‘No he’s definitely from San Francisco.’ You led the league for 20 years in passing as a straight guy,” White said to roaring laughter.

Liberal Media Shocked to Learn Joe Biden Isn’t Doing Too Hot in the Polls

Liberal media is slowly but surely coming to terms that President Joe Biden’s 2024 re-election chances look like nothing but a dream.

An MSNBC panel was astounded to find that more Americans believe Biden is the biggest threat to democracy than former President Donald Trump.

“I find it shocking, honestly,” MSNBC political analyst Susan Del Percio said. “I can’t make sense of that number. I wish I could. I wish I could have some really great insight into it, but I don’t know if it’s an outlier or not, because the other numbers of independents are going in the right direction. So, that may be it.”

The panel was referring to a recent PBS Newshour/NPR/Marist poll that found 53 percent of independents believe Biden’s second term will “weaken America.” Meanwhile, only 42 percent of voters think Trump would be a threat to democracy.

At the same time, CNN hurled hard-hitting truth bombs at Biden during a live interview with the president.

Leaked Pitch Reveals Plot by Former Vivek Staffer to Use MAGA Influencers Against Trump, for RFK

A former communications staffer for Vivek Ramaswamy’s 2024 presidential campaign has been trying to leverage pro-Trump and conservative figures to boost content in favor of Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is running against former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden for the White House, according to a leaked pitch deck obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller.

Zach Henry, who worked as the Deputy Communications Director for Ramaswamy’s campaign, has since started his own firm, Total Virality, and is taking money from the Kennedy campaign. According to FEC reports, RFK Jr.’s campaign paid Total Virality nearly $8,000 in March for “influencer engagement.”

The pitch deck obtained by the Daily Caller shows that Henry was touting his work with RFK alongside screenshots of prominent conservative twitter users.

“RFK’s team contracted Total Virality to help boost his SOTU video. The original agreed upon goal was 4M views (this would have made it the third-highest viewed video ever posted by RFK on the platform),” slide three of the deck says. “We delivered 6M views in the first 24 hours leveraging a custom list of influencers – many of whom were already in our network as well as others we added specifically to this project. It is now RFK’s most-viewed video ever on X.”

The same slide includes screenshots of various prominent Twitter users sharing Kennedy’s State of the Union response video, including avowed Trump supporters and other conservative figures like Scott Adams, Alex Jones, Oli London, Ian Miles Cheong and Joey Mannarino, among others.
