Trump Discusses Inevitability of Death, Says He Wants Religious Revival in U.S. (VIDEO)

Former President Donald Trump spoke about his own mortality and the need for a religious revival in the U.S. during a recent interview with Russian-American podcaster Lex Fridman.

During the hour-long interview posted on Tuesday that touched on topics ranging from the 2024 presidential election to the Kennedy assassination and UFOs, the conversation honed in at the end on mortality and the role religion plays in coming to terms with it and the potential of an afterlife.

“One of the tragic things about life is that it ends,” Fridman said. “How often do you think about your death? Are you afraid of it?”

Trump, who narrowly escaped an assassin’s bullet on July 13 in Butler, Pennsylvania, recounted that he has a “very successful” friend in his mid-80s who thinks about death constantly and often reminds him that time is slipping away.

“He said, ‘I think about it every minute of every day,'” Trump noted of what his friend said of death. “Then, a week later, he called me to tell me something, and he starts off the conversation by going, ‘Tick-tock, tick-tock.’ This is a dark person, in a sense, but it is what it is.” (Read more from “Trump Discusses Inevitability of Death, Says He Wants Religious Revival in U.S. (VIDEO)” HERE)

Trump: ‘I’d Be Inclined’ to Release Epstein Client List if Reelected

Former President Donald Trump told computer scientist and podcaster Lex Fridman that he would “be inclined” to release the client list of disgraced financier and convicted sex criminal Jeffrey Epstein if reelected president.

“Why do you think so many smart, powerful people allowed him to get so close?” Fridman asked President Trump during Tuesday’s episode of the Lex Fridman Podcast.

“He was a good salesman,” Trump replied. “He had some nice assets that he’d throw around like islands, but a lot of big people went to that island. But fortunately, I was not one of them.”

Fridman noted, “It’s just very strange for a lot of people that the list of clients that went to the island has not been made public,” to which Trump replied, “Yeah, it’s very interesting isn’t it? Probably will be, by the way.”

“So if you are able to, you’ll be–” Fridman said, to which President Trump replied, “I’d certainly take a look at it.” (Read more from “Trump: ‘I’d Be Inclined’ to Release Epstein Client List if Reelected” HERE)

Liberal TV Host Says He Thinks Trump Shouldn’t Face Prosecution ‘In The Middle Of An Election’

NewsNation host Chris Cuomo said during a Tuesday podcast that he does not believe former President Donald Trump should be prosecuted during the presidential election.

Trump currently faces four criminal cases, with two relating to the 2020 presidential election, one concerning the 2016 presidential election and another involving classified documents. Cuomo said on “The Chris Cuomo Project” that he thinks some of the cases have merit but that it is still not worthwhile to prosecute Trump due to the timing.

“Remember, Donald Trump has proven to you time and again he doesn’t give a shit about the law if it doesn’t suit his ends. And that’s the truth. I don’t like the cases that were brought against him — two of ’em in New York. The other ones, the classified documents, he did it, okay? Trying to rig this election — he did it,” Cuomo said. “He messed with them in Georgia, and he shouldn’t have, and he knew it. Is it worth prosecuting the guy in the middle of an election? I don’t know. I would say no, and I know that’s crazy.”

“I believe in prosecutorial discretion. Theoretically, no one is above the law, but in practice, prosecutors make decisions of whom to prosecute and whom not to on a basis of policy or also prosecutability,” he added. “And I think that going after Trump for business records, for the other thing they went after him for in New York, the catch-and-kill stuff, I just — I don’t think those are cases you make that often. And I don’t think you make them if it’s not Trump. And to me, just ’cause I don’t like how he is doesn’t mean I don’t think we should be better than that. We should.” (Read more from “Liberal TV Host Says He Thinks Trump Shouldn’t Face Prosecution ‘In The Middle Of An Election’” HERE)

Watch: Theo Von and Donald Trump Swap Stories Over Family Trauma

Something you may not know about the 45th president of the United States (and God willing, the 46th) is that he doesn’t drink. In fact, he never has.

On a recent episode of Theo’s Von’s “This Past Weekend” podcast, the Republican presidential candidate was surprisingly vulnerable regarding his lifelong sobriety.

Dave Rubin plays the clip of the duo’s touching conversation.

“I had a great brother who taught me a lesson: don’t drink,” said Trump, adding that he’s “never had a glass of alcohol — never ever.”

“I admired so much about him. He had so much going — he had the look; he had an unbelievable personality,” Trump said of his brother. “He lived for so long in bad conditions. I was amazed that his body could hold out.” (Read more from “Watch: Theo Von and Donald Trump Swap Stories Over Family Trauma” HERE)

Latest Swing State Polls Suggest Trump Could Score Decisive Victory Against Kamala Harris

Fresh surveys from seven battleground states show a scenario where Donald Trump could win in November with a decisive 296 electoral votes.

Trafalgar, which polled between Aug. 28-30, sees Trump sweeping 44 electoral votes from the pivotal Blue Wall states in November, eking out narrow wins in Michigan, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin inside the polls’ margins of error.

Insider Advantage handled polling in four other battlegrounds between Aug. 29-31, with Arizona, Nevada and North Carolina going to Trump.

To be sure, each of these states remains a statistical dead heat — meaning they could ultimately go either way come election day.

However, the polling is a departure from recent polling that shows Vice President Kamala Harris making gains in the states that will decide the election. (Read more from “Latest Swing State Polls Suggest Trump Could Score Decisive Victory Against Kamala Harris” HERE)

Kamala Closes an Already Disastrous Week by Trashing Gold Star Families; Trump Releases Statement From Families: Harris ‘Disgracefully Twisted’ Trump Cemetery Visit Into ‘Political Ploy’

By Breitbart. Incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris closed out what was already a terrible week with a desperate flail trashing 13 Gold Star families that then blew up spectacularly in her stupid and incompetent face.

First, let’s review the last seven days. . .

Kamala’s insanely stupid and cruel Saturday afternoon tweet accusing 13 Gold Star families of agreeing to act as props so Trump could politicize the death of their loved one was unquestionably the act of a desperate campaign panicking over internal poll numbers and hoping to change the narrative on the Sunday shows away from her disastrous CNN interview.

In the history of unforced presidential campaign errors, this one’s a doozy…

Kamala has bragged about being the “last one in the room” when the calamitous decision was made to surrender Afghanistan to terrorists before all of our people and billions of dollars in weaponry had been removed. That’s why these 13 men and women died. (Read more from “Kamala Closes an Already Disastrous Week by Trashing Gold Star Families” HERE)

Trump Releases Statement From Gold Star Families: Harris ‘Disgracefully Twisted’ Trump Cemetery Visit Into ‘Political Ploy’

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump released a statement from the Gold Star families of the 13 fallen United States service members who were killed during the Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.

In a post on X, Trump shared a joint statement from Misty Fuoco, the sister of Marine Corps Sgt. Nicole Gee; Cheryl Juels, the aunt of Gee; Christy Shamblin, the mother-in-law of Gee; Mark Schmitz, the father of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz; Jaclyn Schmitz, the stepmother of Schmitz; Herman Lopez, the father of Marine Corps Cpl. Hunter Lopez; Jim McCollum, the father of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Rylee McCollum; Steve Nikoui, the father of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui; Coral Doolittle, the mother of Marine Corps Cpl. Humberto Sanchez; Darin Hoover, the father of Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Taylor Hoover; and Kelly Barnett, the mother of Hoover.

The families wrote in their joint statement that Vice President Kamala Harris’s statement labeling Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetery to take part in a wreath-laying ceremony to honor the family’s lost loved ones and fallen servicemembers a “political stunt” was “false, hypocritical, and disrespectful.”

In the statement, the families added that Harris had “disgracefully twisted this sacred moment into a political ploy.”

“Today, Gold Star Families who lost their loved ones in the Harris-Biden Administration’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan released the following joint statement and heartfelt video messages in a direct response to Kamala Harris’ false, hypocritical, and disrespectful statement attacking President Trump,” the statement from the families began.

‘Blood on Their Hands!’ Trump Goes Nuclear on Harris and Biden as American Hostage Found Dead

Former President Donald Trump is placing full blame for the murder of six hostages in Israel, including one American citizen, on the administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

“We grieve the senseless death of the Israeli Hostages, horrifically including a wonderful American Citizen, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, murdered by Hamas due to a complete lack of American Strength and Leadership,” Trump said Sunday on X. “Make no mistake – This happened because Comrade Kamala Harris and Crooked Joe Biden are poor Leaders.”

The other hostages whose bodies were recovered overnight Saturday are identified as Eden Yerushalmi, 24, Almog Sarusi, 25, Alexander Lobanov, 32, Carmel Gat, 40, and Master Sgt. Ori Danino, 25.

“Americans are getting slaughtered overseas, while Kamala is disparaging and making up lies about Gold Star families, and Biden is sleeping on the beach on this 16th consecutive day of vacation. They have blood on their hands!” Trump exclaimed.

The Entire Manufactured Controversy Over Trump’s Arlington Cemetery Visit

Taxpayer-subsidized National Public Radio shouldn’t be a starting place for aggressively biased coverage against either Democrats or Republicans. But you can ask Clarence Thomas how the machine works.

On Aug. 27, NPR veterans affairs reporter Quil Lawrence lit into former President Donald Trump for bringing cameras to a section of Arlington National Cemetery with some families of soldiers killed during President Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The entire manufactured controversy is perverse. It’s obvious NPR is exploiting the cemetery for a political goal, and it then spread to the rest of the national media. Trump is showing support for grieving Gold Star families, while Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris would not appear. They were MIA. But Trump was singled out as the one with grotesque political optics, not the no-shows whose negligence cost American lives.

They weren’t seriously considering the Biden-Harris disaster on “All Things Considered.” They could call it “All Democrats Defended.” Conservatives quickly found snapshots from private photographers of Biden in the same sacred section of the Arlington cemetery. That thing cannot be “considered.”

In a different segment of this evening newscast, Lawrence and NPR Pentagon correspondent Tom Bowman reviewed the third anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing, which led to the death of 13 American service personnel. The segment was headlined: “The chaotic U.S. exit from Afghanistan in 2021 had stems from four administrations.” NPR felt compelled to spread the blame around on everyone.

Trump Reveals He is Voting No on Florida’s Abortion Amendment

Former President Donald Trump revealed that he would be voting no on a proposed abortion amendment in Florida.

When asked by a reporter if he was voting “yes or no” on Amendment 4, Trump explained that while he believes Florida’s six-week abortion ban needs “more time than six weeks,” he will be voting no on Florida’s abortion Amendment, noting that the Democrats were “radical” in their views on abortion.

Under Florida’s Amendment 4, the right to abortion throughout a pregnancy would be enshrined into the state’s constitution.

“I think six weeks, you need more time than six weeks,” Trump said. “I’ve disagreed with that right from the early primaries when I heard about it, I disagreed with it. At the same time, the Democrats are radical because the nine months is just a ridiculous situation, where you can do an abortion in the ninth month.”

“Some of the states like Minnesota and other states have it where you can actually execute the baby after birth, and all of that stuff is unacceptable,” Trump added. “So, I’ll be voting no for that reason.” (Read more from “Trump Reveals He is Voting No on Florida’s Abortion Amendment” HERE)

If Donald Trump’s Sex Life is Fair Game for the Election, So is Kamala Harris’

Pundit and talk radio host Erick Erickson recently went on a rant about how “both parties have nominated terrible candidates whose supporters have decided to behave terribly to bully people into supporting their terrible candidate.” Erickson makes it known he’s still inclined to vote for Trump, but you’d think any prominent right-wing pundit who publicly expresses doubt about Donald Trump two months before the election would be chalked up as a win for Kamala supporters.

But then there’s the Leninist wing of Never Trump. Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, a site largely run by fraudulent conservatives who are funded by left-wing billionaires to help Democrats win elections, really didn’t like Erickson’s tone:

Someone sent me a radio rant by @EWErickson about my disagreement with some at the Dispatch in which he said: ‘Kamala Harris has done nothing but climb the ladder of power since the moment she got up off her knees in front of Willie Brown to put it bluntly to you.’ Swell guy.

Setting aside Erickson’s crude imagery, I’ve covered Kamala Harris’ relationship history more extensively before, but here’s a summary of the facts as we know them: When Harris was a subordinate in the San Francisco DA’s office, she started dating Willie Brown, the most powerful man in California politics, who was 31 years older and married. After the current DA passed over Kamala Harris, a woman who failed the bar exam and is not exactly known for her mastery of the law, Brown was instrumental in alienating the existing DA, and was personally involved in raising money and running Harris’ successful campaign to get elected district attorney. Once in office, Harris let a number of Willie Brown’s friends off the hook when they were facing serious charges — including an egregious case where she let a city contractor and Willie Brown donor skate after endangering people’s lives after defrauding taxpayers by using cheaper, structurally unsound recycled concrete to build bridges and other important structures. This was all reported on in detail by local San Francisco media when it happened, who aren’t exactly in the business of pushing right-wing smears.

And yet, Sarah Longwell thinks Erickson is a bad person because he rather bluntly states the fact that Kamala Harris abased herself personally and engaged in political corruption at the behest of a man who demonstrably advanced her political career. I would have been more circumspect than Erickson, but 26 years after Bill Clinton’s “dalliance with an intern,” I’m supposed to believe Longwell and her colleagues are on their fainting couches because a pundit made a reference to oral sex?
