Leftist Law School Goes Anti-Christian With New Course About ‘Age of Trump’

/0 Comments/in , /by

A top public university’s law school is offering a class this fall that aims to explore the U.S.’ political shift towards “authoritarian Christianist nationalism” in the “age of Trump,” according to an email obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The University of Colorado Boulder’s Law School class, titled “Statutory Interpretation,” is offered to second-year law students and will hinge on topics of relevance in the current election season, including former president Donald Trump’s legal battles and the Supreme Court’s supposed “legitimacy crisis,” professor Paul Campos told students in an email obtained by DCNF. Campos noted in the email that the course could be more aptly named “The Crisis of the American Legal System in the Age of Trump.”

“[It] isn’t surprising that [the school would] offer such a course, but it is disappointing,” a law student who alerted the DCNF of the course said, mentioning multiple instances of similar bias experienced at the school. The student requested anonymity in order to “avoid retaliation” from the school.

“When I learned constitutional law, I learned it from a professor that openly called for the rewriting of the constitution. Students in that same class complained about the fact that “non-college educated” voters in rural America could affect elections at all,” the student told the DCNF. Professors at the university, he said, “tout the likes of Ginsburg and Sotomayor, reading their opinions as though it were gospel. I have yet to hear critiques on the liberal justices, but I often hear critiques on the likes of Justice Gorsuch, who once taught at the school.”

Course topics will include abortion and the “current legitimacy crisis” of the Supreme Court and will discuss how they create a “fundamental threat to social and political national stability,” according to the email.

Former Federal Prosecutor Says Judge Delaying Sentencing May ‘Signal’ He Plans to Jail Trump ‘After the Election’

/4 Comments/in , /by

Former federal prosecutor Andrew Cherkasky said on Friday that Judge Juan Merchan’s decision to postpone former President Donald Trump’s sentencing could indicate his intention to jail the former president following the November election.

Trump’s sentencing was slated for Sept. 18, but Merchan delayed the date on Friday “if necessary” to Nov. 26, according to the order. Cherkasky, on “America Reports,” suggested Merchan might have delayed the sentencing because imprisoning Trump before the election could be catastrophic, whereas doing so afterward would be more practical.

“[George Washington University law professor] Jonathan Turley was just explaining, perhaps this is a path to him finding or reaching a decision that does not have jail time for Donald Trump. I think it could be a signal of the opposite, that trying to jail the president ahead of the election would have been disastrous for the nation at large,” Cherkasky said. “But if he waits until after the election, then that becomes more of a viable option for him. I’m not saying I think that’s necessarily going to happen. I’m kind of playing it from both sides of the deck, thinking about what he might be thinking in terms of a final sentence in this case.” (Read more from “Former Federal Prosecutor Says Judge Delaying Sentencing May ‘Signal’ He Plans to Jail Trump ‘After the Election'” HERE)

Trump Pledges to Create Elon Musk-Led ‘Government Efficiency Commission’ in Major Economic Address

/1 Comment/in , /by

During a major economic speech on Thursday, former President Donald Trump pledged to create a “government efficiency commission” spearheaded by X owner Elon Musk if elected this November.

This commission will be “tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government and making recommendations for drastic reforms,” the 2024 GOP presidential nominee said during his address to The Economic Club of New York.

The announcement came days after The Washington Post reported that Trump was considering forming such a group, comprised of leading business leaders, to identify and slash wasteful government programs.

Throughout his address, the former president voiced support for lowering the corporate tax rate to 15 percent for companies “that make their product in America,” which is lower than the current 21 percent established by Republicans’ 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act. (The previous rate was 35 percent). He also pledged to slash at least 10 federal regulations for every new one created, expanding upon a policy enacted during his first term.

“I took care of our economy like I would take care of my own company in every decision,” Trump said. “I asked, will I create jobs here, or will I be sending jobs overseas? Will it make America richer and stronger, or will it make our country weaker and poorer? … I always put America first every single time.” (Read more from “Trump Pledges to Create Elon Musk-Led ‘Government Efficiency Commission’ in Major Economic Address” HERE)

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

/0 Comments/in , /by

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

/0 Comments/in , /by

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’

/1 Comment/in , /by

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

/0 Comments/in , /by

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

/0 Comments/in , /by

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’

/18 Comments/in , , /by

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

/2 Comments/in , /by

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.
