Tim Walz’s Coaching History Called Out After Ex-Football Players Hit Dnc Stage: ‘It’s Strange’

/13 Comments/in , , /by

Former members of the Mankato West High School football team took center stage at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Wednesday night in support of their former coach, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, as he formally accepted the Democratic nomination for vice president.

However, social media stirred over the reference to Walz as a football coach who turned a losing team into state champions.

“In Minnesota, we trust a coach who turned a team that was 0-27 into state champions,” Sen. Amy Klobuchar (D-Minn.) said in her speech on the third night of the DNC.

Ben Ingman, one of Walz’s former students, who said the governor also coached him in seventh-grade basketball and track at Mankato, echoed that sentiment.

“Coach Walz got us excited about what we might achieve together. He believed in us, and he helped us believe in each other. And his leadership stuck. That track team went on to win a state title, just like the football team.” . . .

“Amy Klobuchar introduces Timothy Walz as a coach who ‘turned’ a team ‘into state champions,’” one person said in a post on X. “He was NEVER a head coach. He didn’t ‘turn’ anyone into state champions.” (Read more from “Tim Walz’s Coaching History Called Out After Ex-Football Players Hit DNC Stage: ‘It’s Strange'” HERE)

Suspect Accused of Threatening the Life of President Trump Arrested by Deputies

/5 Comments/in , /by

Authorities in Cochise County, Arizona, have taken into custody a man suspected of threatening to assassinate President Donald Trump, a circumstance that on Thursday triggered a widespread hunt for Ronald Lee Syrvud, 66.

A report from Daily Wire said the suspect was nabbed by authorities while Trump was visiting the state, which has been impacted by the colossal failure in the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration to secure the international border. . .

But the report said Syrvud had an outstanding warrant for felony failure to register as a sex offender and was charged with a sex offender violation on his arrest.

The Daily Mail reported Syrvud has in the past registered as a Democrat and has a long rap sheet, including pleading no contest to second-degree sexual assault of a child in 2000.

Pollsters Say RFK Jr. Endorsement ‘Could Have a Really Big Impact’ and ‘Help Trump’

/5 Comments/in , /by

Republican pollster Lee Carter and Democratic pollster Carly Cooperman on Friday said that independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump could significantly boost his campaign.

Kennedy announced during a Friday speech that he would suspend his campaign and endorse Trump in states where he is not on the ballot, only withdrawing his name from consideration in key battleground states as not to spoil the vote. Carter and Cooperman, on “Your World With Neil Cavuto,” said that in such a close election, the votes that Trump could gain from Kennedy’s decision might boost his chances of defeating Vice President Kamala Harris.

“When you’re looking at these battleground states, we’re looking at averages where Donald Trump might be ahead by 0.2%, and just getting some of those votes could have a really big impact. And I think RFK Jr. knows this,” Carter said. “He was very, very keen to say, ‘I am withdrawing my name from these 10 states because I know it can have an impact.’ And so I think there is a very, very clear directive here.”

“It’s absolutely the case that the polls in these swing states show that with RFK removed, there is a small advantage that goes to Donald Trump. And in these states, every single vote really does matter. This makes a lot of sense,” Cooperman said. “Democrats are far more enthusiastic about Kamala Harris as their presidential candidate than they were about Joe Biden. And so you’re seeing much more coalescing among Democrats for Kamala, and therefore the support that RFK was getting in the most recent polls was certainly going to help Trump more so with him removed from it.”

Cooperman also noted “there is uncertainty” about what Kennedy’s supporters will do in November. (Read more from “Pollsters Say RFK Jr. Endorsement ‘Could Have a Really Big Impact’ and ‘Help Trump'” HERE)

Jack Smith Surrenders: Special Counsel Will Not Seek Expedited Hearings in Donald Trump Case

/3 Comments/in , /by

Special Counsel Jack Smith reversed course in his quest to seek expedited hearings in his Washington, DC, case against former President Donald Trump.

Smith sought the hearings to determine which actions that Trump allegedly took he could charge in his election interference case against the president.

The Supreme Court’s July 1 decision that presidents enjoy partial immunity for actions taken in office in an official capacity spurred Smith to alter his approach.

Before Smith relented in his latest push to expedite the increasingly shaky case, Judge Tanya Chutkan had planned to hold hearings in the fall to determine which of Trump’s acts were official acts subject to prosecution.

That determination will now occur after the election — if it occurs at all. (Read more from “Jack Smith Surrenders: Special Counsel Will Not Seek Expedited Hearings in Donald Trump Case” HERE)

Trump: Why Didn’t ‘Marxist’ Kamala Do Anything for What She Was Complaining About?; Trump Found a Way to Finish His Response to Kamala’s DNC Speech After Being Cut Off on Fox (VIDEO)

/7 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Thursday, following Vice President Kamala Harris’ address to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, her opponent former President Donald Trump appeared on Fox News to respond to the speech.

Trump maintained Harris had her entire vice-presidential term to solve what he called she was “complaining about” during her speech.

“The biggest reaction is why didn’t she do the things she is complaining about?” Trump said. “All of these things that she’s talked about — we’re going to do this, we’re going to do that. We’re going to do everything. But she didn’t do any of it. She could have done it three-and-a-half years ago. She could do it tonight by leaving the auditorium and going to Washington D.C., and closing the border. She doesn’t need a bill. I didn’t have a bill, I closed the border and created the safest border we’ve ever had in the history of our country.” (Read more from “Trump: Why Didn’t ‘Marxist’ Kamala Do Anything for What She Was Complaining About?” HERE)

Trump Found a Way to Finish His Response to Kamala’s DNC Speech After Being Cut Off on Fox

By Townhall. Former President Donald Trump would not sit quietly while Vice President Kamala Harris delivered her acceptance speech to the Democratic National Convention. The coup is complete. Ms. Harris, who never received a single primary vote, is now the 2024 nominee after it was wrested from Joe Biden. For Democrats, Harris’ speech was groundbreaking and an excellent foray into her supposed experience and skills for the presidency. It read like ChatGPT spewed the lines because it was loaded with incoherency and lies for everyone else.

One whopper was this abortion Stasi that Trump would establish if elected after he enacted a nationwide abortion ban. Trump was reacting live on Truth Social but later called into Fox News to push back on Harris’ address. There was one problem: Fox cut off the president. There was no sinister intent, but the programming pushed against Greg Gutfeld’s show. It’s not a major controversy—Trump later called Gutfeld to finish his reaction to the Democrats’ convention:

Dems Are Panicking Over a Potential RFK Jr. Endorsement of Trump (VIDEO)

/2 Comments/in , /by

The news that third party presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may endorse former President Donald Trump Friday — when he plans to drop out of the 2024 race for the White House — is not going over well in Democratic circles.

According to Kennedy’s vice presidential running mate Nicole Shanahan, Democrats are panicking over the potential move.

“My old Dem buddies have been flooding me with frantic calls, texts, and emails. Unlike Ro, I wouldn’t dream of airing those private conversations publicly, but the message is clear: they’re terrified of the idea of our movement joining forces with Donald Trump. When I point out what the Democratic Party and their super PACs have done to sabotage our campaign, their response is always, “but Trump is worse.” Here’s an idea: stop suing us. Let us debate. Quit rigging the media and the polls. It’s a simple formula, people—get with it,” Shanahan posted on X Thursday.

During an interview with Fox News, Shanahan explained the reason the campaign is considering an endorsement of Trump. Both have been targets of Democratic lawfare, an ironically undemocratic tactic to keep political rivals off of ballots and out of races.

Trump told Fox and Friends Thursday morning he would be “honored” to have the endorsement.

Biden Suggests Trump Supporters Are Stupid at DNC: ‘Can’t Think, Can’t Read Very Well’

/1 Comment/in , , /by

President Joe Biden’s speech at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Monday night has sparked controversy for its inflammatory rhetoric directed at supporters of former President Donald Trump. Biden took aim at Trump supporters with a disparaging comment about their intelligence and reading abilities.

In his speech, Biden questioned the nation’s educational system and blamed Trump and his allies for purported failures. “How can we be the greatest nation in the world without the best education system in the world?” Biden asked. “Donald Trump and his Republican friends, they not only can’t think, they can’t read very well.” The comment was met with laughter from the audience, but it has since drawn significant criticism from various quarters.

Biden’s remarks echo Clinton’s 2016 comments when she described Trump supporters as a “basket of deplorables.” At the time, Clinton faced intense backlash for labeling half of Trump’s supporters as part of a “basket” filled with individuals she deemed “racist, sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, Islamaphobic.” The Trump campaign had condemned Clinton’s remarks as a display of “true contempt” for everyday Americans, criticizing her for failing to maintain a positive campaign.

The Trump campaign was quick to respond, drawing parallels between Biden’s speech and Clinton’s earlier comments. “Just when Joe Biden was supposed to be uniting the country, he instead resorted to the same divisive tactics that Hillary Clinton used in 2016,” a Trump campaign spokesperson said. “These remarks reveal a deep-seated contempt for millions of Americans who support Trump and are disillusioned with the current administration’s policies.”

Trump Shooter Had Multiple Encrypted Accounts Overseas

/1 Comment/in , /by

The gunman who nearly killed former President Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, last month used encrypted messaging accounts on multiple platforms based in Belgium, New Zealand and Germany, according to a House representative appointed to a congressional task force investigating the assassination attempt.

Rep. Mike Waltz, R-Fla., a retired Green Beret appointed to the 13-member House bipartisan task force investigating the attempted assassination of Trump, told reporters about the accounts while at the Trump Hotel Chicago Wednesday.

One reporter asked Waltz what he and other members of the task force had learned during the investigation and about the encrypted messages on the shooter’s cellphone.

“We still haven’t learned a lot. We haven’t learned that much about those overseas accounts,” he said, referring to accounts held by would-be assassin Thomas Matthew Crooks. “We do know that they were in, if I get this correctly, Belgium, New Zealand and Germany.

“Why does a 19-year-old kid who is a health care aide need encrypted platforms not even based in the United States, but based abroad, where most terrorist organizations know it is harder for our law enforcement to get into? That’s a question I’ve had since day one.” (Read more from “Trump Shooter Had Multiple Encrypted Accounts Overseas” HERE)

RFK Jr to Weigh Dropping U.S. Presidential Bid to Join Forces With Trump

/2 Comments/in , /by

By Reuters. Independent U.S. presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is considering ending his campaign to join forces with Republican rival Donald Trump, Kennedy’s running mate said in an interview posted online on Tuesday.

The vice presidential candidate, Nicole Shanahan, said that as independents she and Kennedy ran the risk of drawing support from would-be Trump voters and clearing the way for Democrats Kamala Harris and Tim Walz to win the November election. . .

Trump told CNN on Tuesday he would “certainly be open” to Kennedy playing a role in his administration if the independent candidate drops out of the race and endorses him.

“I like him, and I respect him,” Trump told the network in an interview after a campaign stop in Michigan.

“He’s a brilliant guy. He’s a very smart guy. I’ve known him for a very long time,” Trump was quoted as saying by CNN. “I didn’t know he was thinking about getting out, but if he is thinking about getting out, certainly I’d be open to it.” (Read more from “RFK Jr to Weigh Dropping U.S. Presidential Bid to Join Forces With Trump” HERE)

RFK Jr.’s Running Mate Admits Campaign is Considering Joining Forces With Donald Trump

By Breitbart. Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s running mate, Nicole Shanahan, says their campaign is considering joining forces with Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump.

In an interview with Tom Bilyeu on his show, Impact Theory, Shanahan revealed that she trusts “the future” of the United States under the leadership of people such as Trump and his vice presidential pick, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH).

When questioned about rumors that Kennedy was in talks with either Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign about a “potential endorsement” in exchange for a position in their cabinets, Shanahan said they were “definitely not in talks with Harris” and “definitely never have brought up this idea of an endorsement” with Harris’s campaign.

“There’s two options that we’re looking at, and one is staying in, forming that new party, but we run the risk of a Kamala Harris and Walz presidency because we draw votes from Trump — or we draw, somehow, more votes from Trump,” Shanahan revealed. “Or we walk away right now and join forces with Donald Trump, and we walk away from that, and we explain to our base why we’re making this decision.”

“If we’re splitting hairs, I would say that I trust the future of this country more under the leadership of the Trump and the Theos and the JD Vances than I do of the Harrises and Reid Hoffman,” Shanahan added during the interview.

Michelle Obama Plays Race Card In Speech At DNC

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Former First Lady Michelle Obama took a controversial turn in her speech at the Democratic National Convention on Tuesday night, accusing former President Donald Trump of racism in his opposition to her and her husband, former President Barack Obama.

In her address, Obama suggested that Trump’s antagonism towards the Obama administration was rooted in racial prejudice, asserting that Trump’s worldview was threatened by the success of a highly-educated, black couple. This speech marks a significant departure from her 2016 message of maintaining dignity and rising above negativity, famously captured in her mantra, “When they go low, we go high.”

During her speech, Obama alleged, “For years, Donald Trump did everything in his power to try to make people fear us. His limited, narrow view of the world made him feel threatened by the existence of two hard-working, highly-educated, successful people who happen to be black.”

The speech was met with applause from the Democratic audience, but it has stirred controversy, particularly regarding its implications about Trump’s motives and statements.

One point of contention is Obama’s critique of Trump’s use of the term “black jobs.” In her remarks, she questioned if Trump might see the job he seeks as one of those “black jobs,” which some interpreted as a veiled accusation of racism. Trump’s use of the term, however, was related to job market dynamics and competition rather than a racially motivated slur.
