Report: Here’s Who Melania Wants Trump to Pick for VP

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Melania Trump is pushing for her husband to pick Tucker Carlson as his 2024 running mate if he secures the Republican nomination for president, according to a report.

The former first lady believes the ex-Fox News host would be a “powerful onstage extension” of her husband, former President Donald Trump, according to Axios.

But there is stiff competition, as Trump, 77, is also considering more politically experienced candidates for the No. 2 post — such as Sen. J.D. Vance (R-Ohio), Arkansas Gov. Sarah Huckabee Sanders, South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem and Reps. Byron Donalds (R-Fla.) and Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), according to the outlet.

Kari Lake, who lost her 2022 bid to be Arizona’s Republican governor and is now running for US Senate in the state, is also among the “loyalist”-types that Trump is reportedly considering for vice president.

Despite being Melania’s preferred choice, the former president’s staff and people close to him reportedly fear that Carlson would “outshine” Donald Trump and that the talk show host “can’t be controlled,” according to Axios.

Ramaswamy Absolutely Obliterates DeSantis, Nikki Haley, and Chris Christie in GOP Debate (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In the fourth GOP presidential debate, Vivek Ramaswamy delivered a performance that not only captivated the audience but also visibly stunned fellow candidate Nikki Haley. Known for his assertive and articulate style, Ramaswamy dominated the stage with a blend of incisive arguments and bold statements on the subjects of climate change, the Ukraine war, and more.

The debate kicked off with a discussion on U.S. involvement in Ukraine. During this segment, Ramaswamy questioned Nikki Haley’s basic geographical knowledge, which nullified her into a blank stare. “Look at that … She has no idea what the hell the names of those [Ukraine] provinces are, but she wants to send our sons and daughters and our troops and our military equipment to go fight it.”

Ramaswamy then shifted his focus to the dynamics of American politics. He exposed what he called the “dirty little secret” of the system, stating, “The people who we elect to run the government are not the ones who are even actually running the government.”

Ramaswamy made an array of statements that go against the GOP establishment rhetoric. “Why am I the only person on this stage at least who can say that January 6 now does look like it was an inside job?” he asked. Ramaswamy added that the Russia collusion narrative surrounding Trump’s presidency was a hoax and that the 2020 election was stolen from him by Big Tech.

Ramaswamy’s debate performance escalated when he directly accused Nikki Haley of corruption. While holding a sign that read, “Nikki = Corrupt,” he charged, “Nikki, I don’t have a woman problem. You have a corruption problem. And I think that that’s what people need to know. Nikki is corrupt. This is a woman who will send your kids to die so she can buy a bigger house.”

Florida Surgeon General Notes ‘DNA Fragments Detected in mRNA COVID Shots’

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Florida Surgeon General Joseph Ladapo, who notes that DNA fragments have been detected in mRNA COVID-19 vaccines, has issued a letter asking questions related to the issue.

“On today’s episode of: What the FDA… I asked @DrCaliff_FDA to address the DNA fragments detected in mRNA COVID shots & how they are hitchhiking into human cells. DNA integration into the human genome & oncogenesis are known risks, even acknowledged by @US_FDA in ’07,” Ladapo tweeted when sharing his letter to FDA Commisoner Robert Califf. CDC Director Mandy Cohen is also included on the letter.

In a letter earlier this year, Ladapo accused Califf and then-CDC Director Rochelle Walensky of ignoring many of the risks related to mRNA COVID-19 vaccines. In his new letter dated December 6, 2023, he noted that “no response has been received.” (Read more from “Florida Surgeon General Notes ‘Dna Fragments Detected in mRNA COVID Shots'” HERE)

Why Nikki Haley Would Be a Disastrous Choice for the GOP

/1 Comment/in , , /by

It seems that former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley is bounding ahead in a hypothetical matchup with Joe Biden. Although Haley has not been able to make significant headway against Republican front-runner Donald Trump, who is now polling over 60% as his party’s preferred presidential candidate in the primaries, Haley would beat Biden by the largest margin among active Republican candidates — possibly by as much as 10 points. . .

Haley has been doing her publicity with massive assistance from the Republican-neoconservative establishment. The Wall Street Journal has all but endorsed her already. The New York Post and the rest of the Murdoch media empire can’t say enough nice things about her. In fact, they can’t mention her without lapsing into spasms of rapture while railing against Trump.

I recently listened to a conversation on Fox News between former U.S. Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-S.C.) and Republican consultant Karl Rove. It was hard to tell which mood was more dominant in this animated conversation: profound loathing for Trump or blissful adoration of Haley. The two dispositions usually coexist in Haley’s fans, who view her as the top-drawer candidate for anti-Trump Republicans. . .

The coup is being engineered with noticeable support from socially liberal business tycoons and Democratic donors who support a neocon foreign policy coupled with corporate tax cuts. (What else is new?) Haley’s campaign is starting to look like a takeover by wealthy members of the center left.

It’s also hard not to notice that Haley has spent years giving herself a biographical and ideological makeover. Although she started out politically as a white Southern Evangelical of Indian ancestry, in recent years, she has dwelled on her traumatic youth as “a little brown girl” whose Sikh father wore a turban and tried to preserve his Indian identity. Haley also went from honoring her South Carolina background to more recently criticizing her one-time white neighbors as bigots. (Ironically, those white neighbors belonged to the group that gave her a majority of their votes.) (Read more from “Why Nikki Haley Would Be a Disastrous Choice for the GOP” HERE)

WATCH: Sparks Fly Between Riley Gaines and Dem Rep During Hearing on Biden Proposal to Rewrite Title IX

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Representatives and witnesses highlighted concerns for girls and women during a contentious hearing on Tuesday challenging the Biden administration’s proposed changes to Title IX, which would effectively broaden the definition of sex to include “gender identity.”

The proposed changes would rewrite Title IX in such a way that policies banning biological males who identify as trans from competing with or against females would now be in violation of law. Issuing such sex distinctions to protect girls sports, therefore, could strip a school of its funding. The rule would be applied to public K-12 schools, colleges, universities, and other institutions that receive federal funding.

The hearing opened with a rather fiery interaction between former NCAA swimmer-turned-advocate Riley Gaines and Democratic Rep. Summer Lee (PA), who preemptively suggested Gaines and other witnesses’ testimonies would be “transphobic” and filled with “hateful misinformation.”

“And Ranking Member Lee, if my testimony makes me transphobic, then I believe you’re opening monologue makes you a misogynist,” Gaines said in closing her opening statement.

Lee interrupted the next witness to ask to have Gaines’ words taken down. Gaines chimed in, “Can I just ask, how it’s fair to be called transphobic —” before Lee interjected, “I never called you anything.”

Surprise, Surprise: Poll Finds Children Who Have Liberal Parents More Likely to Have Poor Mental Health

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a groundbreaking study conducted by the Institute for Family Studies (IFS) and Gallup, the influence of parental political ideology on adolescent mental health has taken center stage. Published in a recent research brief, the findings suggest that children of conservative parents tend to exhibit better mental health outcomes compared to their counterparts raised in liberal households.

Over the course of the summer, Jonathan Rothwell, the Principal Economist at Gallup, and his colleagues explored the nuances of parent-adolescent relationships and their potential impact on youth mental health. The study involved a comprehensive survey of 6,643 parents, including 2,956 who cohabitate with an adolescent, and interviews with 1,580 of those adolescents.

One of the standout conclusions from the research is the significant role political ideology plays in shaping a child’s mental health. Rothwell notes that being raised by liberal parents appears to be a more substantial risk factor for mental health problems during adolescence than factors such as low-income households or parental education.

The study identifies conservative parents as more likely to adopt parenting practices associated with positive adolescent mental health. This includes effective discipline, displays of affection, and responsiveness to their children’s needs. Conversely, liberal parents scored lower, particularly in successfully disciplining their children.

The quality of parent-child relationships also showed a stark contrast, with conservative parents reporting fewer arguments, more warmth, and stronger bonds with their children. Very conservative parents stood out as the highest performers in relationship quality, closely followed by very liberal parents, but still with a notable gap in favor of conservatives.

The numerical insights reveal a substantial difference in mental health outcomes. Adolescents with very conservative parents are reported to be 16-17 percentage points more likely to report good or excellent mental health compared to their very liberal counterparts. The study found that only 55% of adolescents with liberal parents reported good or excellent mental health, whereas 77% of those with conservative or very conservative parents did.

The research also touched upon the influence of marriage attitudes on parenting practices. Those with more pro-marriage attitudes were found to be more likely to engage in best-practice parenting.

Senate Showdown: Sen. Blackburn’s Bid to Subpoena Epstein’s Flight Logs Denied by Dem Senator (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

In a recent development on Capitol Hill, Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) revealed that her request to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs had been denied by Senator Dick Durbin (D-IL). The contentious decision has fueled accusations of partisan maneuvering, with Blackburn asserting that Democrats may be hiding crucial information related to Epstein’s alleged human trafficking activities.

Taking to Twitter, Blackburn expressed her frustration, stating, “@SenatorDurbin BLOCKED my request to subpoena Jeffrey Epstein’s flight logs. What are Democrats trying to hide? I want to know the names of every single person who may have taken Jeffrey Epstein’s private plane and participated in his human trafficking ring. RT if you do too.”

The denial of Blackburn’s request comes at a time when tensions between Republicans and Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee are escalating. The Committee’s Democrats recently made headlines by voting to subpoena private citizens, including Harlan Crow and Leonard Leo, as part of an unprecedented move aimed at Justices Clarence Thomas and Samuel Alito. The move has been framed as a strategy in the Democrats’ broader initiative of “reverse court-packing.”

Blackburn’s push to subpoena Epstein’s flight logs adds another layer to the already contentious atmosphere surrounding the Senate Judiciary Committee. Her demand, made in early November, included an investigation into individuals who flew on Epstein’s private plane, commonly referred to as the “Lolita Express.”

In response to Durbin’s denial, Blackburn issued a statement condemning the decision, stating, “This is a sad day in the history of the prestigious Judiciary Committee and further underscores the Left’s two tiers of justice crusade.” She went on to criticize Senate Democrats for allegedly attempting to undermine the Supreme Court and Justice Clarence Thomas while neglecting other issues, such as Justice Sotomayor’s alleged misuse of taxpayer-funded staff.

Judge Lets 8 Men Who Gang-Raped Girl Walk Free

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A German court delivered its verdict Tuesday concerning those responsible for the barbaric September 2020 gang-rape of a 15-year-old German girl in the northern city of Hamburg.

Of the eleven men initially charged in relation to the gang-rape of the minor — only four of whom were technically German — two were acquitted. Nine were found guilty. Eight got probation, not exceeding two years. Only one is headed to prison.

There has been significant backlash following the release of eight convicted rapists, prompting officials to condemn critiques of the judgment, particularly those of an “anti-migrant” nature.

Spiegel reported that the victim attended a party on the festival lawn in Hamburg’s over 350-acre city park on Sept. 19, 2020. Four of the men dragged the girl, then intoxicated, into a bush and raped her. One of the rapists added insult to grievous injury and stole her phone and wallet. . .

After the initial series of attacks, the victim reportedly began stumbling away, right into the arms of yet another rapist from the pack. The rapist who intercepted her near the festival meadow was then joined by three additional rapists, who are suspected to have all similarly sexually assaulted the victim. Owing to the uncertainty about whether the final three all raped the victim, one rapist was acquitted. (Read more from “Judge Lets 8 Men Who Gang-Raped Girl Walk Free” HERE)

Fart Fiasco: John Kerry’s Unintended Emission Steals Spotlight at Climate Change Conference (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The United States’ Special Presidential Envoy for Climate, John Kerry, found himself at the center of an unexpected incident during the Climate Change Conference in Dubai on Sunday. While passionately discussing US policy on coal power plants, Kerry inadvertently unleashed a burst of wind energy of a different kind — a momentary flatulence that became the unexpected highlight of the international event.

The incident occurred as Kerry was advocating against permitting more coal-fired power plants worldwide. In the midst of his anti-coal diatribe, a distinct sound of passing gas interrupted his speech. The unexpected noise, commonly known as a Bronx cheer, was captured by microphones, providing an amusing twist to the serious discussions on climate policy.

Kerry’s fellow panelists, Becky Anderson, Managing Editor of CNN Abu Dhabi, and Fatih Birol, Executive Director of the International Energy Agency, maintained their composure as the crowd, seemingly unfazed, broke into applause. Anderson, seated within potential striking distance, subtly jerked her head aside and discreetly placed her hand to her mouth, possibly anticipating any lingering effects of the comical interruption.

Despite the unexpected interruption, Kerry continued with his impassioned speech on the interconnected nature of the climate crisis and health issues. The incident, however, did not go unnoticed, with some critics viewing it as an embarrassment to the United States on the international stage.

Larry O’Connor of Townhall Media emphasized the gravity of the situation, stating, “The biggest problem is, during this entire exchange, representing us, The United States of America, he ripped a fart out.”

Don’t Be Surprised if Fox News Fires Greg Gutfeld After This…

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Tucker Carlson recently openly discussed how Fox News is basically controlled opposition and heavily influenced by very specific sectors of corporate America, such as Big Pharma. This is how networks control their talent. They know what they can and cannot say based on who is paying the bills.

However, it’s not limited to Fox News; this is essentially how our entire news media functions. This is why a significant portion of what we hear is left-wing propaganda. After all, the woke progressive left is closely aligned with the “establishment,” and their authoritarian agenda revolves around the same goals: money, power, and control. So, it’s really no surprise that Tucker called this out. However, what is surprising to many is that Greg Gutfeld essentially echoed the same sentiment, albeit in a somewhat more gentle manner. Nevertheless, Greg supported Tucker and stated that he was let go due to “special interests,” making it clear that Fox isn’t exactly “fair and balanced”—more like bought and paid for.

Many are now wondering if Gutfeld will be next on the chopping block.
