Court Employee Arrested After Trying to Approach Trump at NYC Civil Fraud Trial

/0 Comments/in , /by

A New York state court employee was arrested Wednesday after she tried to approach former President Donald Trump — claiming she wanted to help him — during his ongoing civil fraud trial in lower Manhattan, officials said.

The woman, who cops identified as Jenny Hannigan, was charged with contempt of court for disrupting the proceedings in Manhattan Supreme Court just before noon “by standing up and walking towards the front of the courtroom yelling out to Mr. Trump,” Office of Court Administration spokesman Lucian Chalfen said.

A Post reporter inside the courtroom at the time did not hear Hannigan yell, but she was caught talking loudly in the hallway after being escorted out.

Hannigan, 37 — of Baldwin, NY — is a secretary for a judge in Queens, according to a courthouse source. No one answered a phone number at an address listed for her there.

Hannigan, wearing a black dress and matching blazer, was stopped by court officers before she could get near Trump, 77, and his attorneys — who were seated at the defense table, Chalfen said in a statement.

Trump Calls Federal Gag Order in DC Trial ‘So Unconstitutional’ and Says He Will Appeal

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump blasted a limited gag order a federal judge issued against him Monday in the Washington, D.C., criminal election interference case.

Trump claimed the gag order was “so unconstitutional” and that his team would appeal the order during a campaign event in Adel, Iowa, Monday afternoon and just mere hours after his campaign spokesperson called the order “an absolute abomination.”

“Today a judge put on a gag order. I’ll be the only politician in history that runs with a gag order where I’m not allowed to criticize people. Can you imagine this?” Trump said. “Do you believe this? I’m not allowed to criticize people, so we’ll see. We’ll appeal it and we’ll see but it’s so unconstitutional.”

Trump again compared himself to the infamous American gangster Al Capone before bragging about his increasing support in the wake of four criminal cases and the 91 indictments he faces.

“He was only indicted one time. I’ve been indicted four times,” Trump said, comparing himself to Capone. “And in addition, I have the civil trials that are all coming out of the Justice Department. They’ve weaponized the Justice Department and the FBI … This is like a banana republic but we’re going to be okay. … The good news is, I’m the only one that’s ever been indicted with the numbers went through the roof.” (Read more from “Trump Calls Federal Gag Order in DC Trial ‘So Unconstitutional’ and Says He Will Appeal” HERE)

Trump Says He Would Cut Off Funding to ‘Palestinian Terrorists,’ Pledges to Stand With Israel ‘100%’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump during a campaign rally in Iowa on Monday touted his Middle East foreign policy record and contrasted it with the instability under President Joe Biden just two years later.

“Making America Great Again must begin with making America strong again and making America safe again,” Trump said at a rally in Clive, Iowa, less than 100 days from the Iowa Caucus.

“Under my leadership, the world’s thugs, villains, killers, and savages were in retreat and running scared—all because you had a president who stood up for America, who stood up for Israel, and who stood up for Judeo-Christian civilization,” he said.

He went over his four years in office, which he said created “peace in the Middle East”:

In four short years, I obliterated the ISIS territorial caliphate. I terminated its founder and leader, Al Baghdadi. I annihilated the senior ranks of Al Qaeda. I eliminated Iran’s terrorist mastermind Kassem Solemani, who was killing our soldiers by the thousands and killing everyone else. I withdrew from the Iran nuclear deal, crushed the murderous Iranian regime with sanctions, and starved Hamas, Hezbollah, and other Iranian proxies of funding and support.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Famous rapper Waka Flocka Flame endorsed former President Donald Trump to retake the White House in 2024, according to a social media post on Monday.

Waka Flocka Flame took to Twitter to share his political perspective with his nearly two million fans and followers, and told them, in no uncertain terms, that Trump has his vote. His message was concise and left no room for interpretation.

Waka Flocka Flame posted his public support of Trump in the wake of a predicted slide in black voters in favor of President Joe Biden.

The Biden administration has been criticized for alienating black voters, especially those in poor, heavily populated urban areas. Biden’s popularity has dwindled over his handling of the border crisis which has seen illegal migrants flooding the country. (Read more from “Famous Rapper Endorses Trump for 2024” HERE)

Trump Brings Home Americans From Israel, While Families Beg Biden to Help

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Thanks to former President Trump, an American family has returned home safely after being caught in the onslaught hell the terrorist group Hamas has started against Israel.

This week, Yitz Friedman of the American Accountability Foundation thanked Trump for helping him escape the war in Israel by boarding one of the few flights out of the country to the United Arab Emirates— which established diplomatic ties under the Trump Administration.

Randy DeSoto, a reporter for the Western Journal, applauded Trump’s efforts to excavate Americans as terrorist groups ravage Israel, saying that “the world was safer, the economy was stronger, and America was much more respected when Trump was president.” . . .

Meanwhile, families of American hostages in Gaza are begging the Biden Administration to act against the inhumane actions against Jewish people.

Nahar Neta, the son of 66-year-old Adriene Neta, a woman captured by Hamas, called on President Joe Biden and Secretary of State Antony Blinken to help those in danger. They condemned the party, saying the Biden Administration is “responsible for bringing the U.S. citizens back home safe and sound. We expect nothing less from the U.S. administration.” (Read more from “Trump Brings Home Americans From Israel, While Families Beg Biden to Help” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Joe Biden is trailing former President Donald Trump by 9 points in the crucial battleground state of Pennsylvania, which the Democrat won in 2020, according to a poll released on Wednesday.

Trump beat Biden 45% to 36% among Pennsylvania voters, with 11% choosing someone else and 8% remaining undecided, according to the Emerson College survey. Biden won the state in 2020 against the former president 50% to 48.8% in one of the country’s most narrow margins of victory, and Trump beat Hillary Clinton in 2016 by 1.2 points.

The survey also found that Biden had a 31% approval rating among Pennsylvanians, with 51% disapproving.

Another recent survey, conducted by Quinnipiac University, suggested that Trump was leading Biden by 2 points among Pennsylvania voters, as well as among independents at 48% to 39%, respectively.

A series of recent polls indicate Trump has a leg up on Biden in key battleground states like Michigan, Georgia and North Carolina. A mid-September Reuters/Ipsos survey found that across Michigan, Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin, Trump leads Biden 41% to 35%.

Ex-Trump National Security Adviser: Biden’s Ransom to Iran Incentivized Hamas to Take American Hostages

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Trump National Security Adviser Robert C. O’Brien criticized the Biden administration for paying Iran $6 billion in ransom money, saying that it incentivized Hamas to take Americans in Israel hostage on Saturday as it launched a number of terrorist attacks across the country.

“While welcoming our Iran hostages home, I said at the time — paying ransom (eg unfreezing $6 billion) is problematic because it incentivizes new hostage taking & gives terrorists money for new operations. I didn’t think we would see these points illustrated so vividly, so quickly,” O’Brien posted on X.

O’Brien served during the Trump administration as the special presidential envoy for hostage affairs from 2018 through 2019 and helped secure the release of American pastor Andrew Brunson from Turkey in 2018. He also helped secure the release of Danny Burch, an American oil worker in Yemen.

O’Brien said he called on President Joe Biden on Saturday to deploy the FBI Hostage Rescue Team and Joint Special Operations Command’s hostage extraction forces to assist Israel.

“We now know [American citizens] have been taken by Hamas,” O’Brien posted. “Those teams should be airborne to the region now to be in a position to rescue our countrymen.”

Report: Trump ‘Is Endorsing Jim Jordan’ for House Speaker

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump will back GOP Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio in the race for House speaker, Republican Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas said in a post on X.

“Just had a great conversation with President Trump about the Speaker’s race. He is endorsing Jim Jordan, and I believe Congress should listen to the leader of our party. I fully support Jim Jordan for Speaker of the House,” Nehls wrote.

Jordan and House Majority Leader Steve Scalise (R-La.) have both mounted bids to serve as House speaker. Rep. Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.), who had been serving as speaker since early January, was ousted from the role this week and has said that he will not seek to return to the post.

Trump, who is leading the Republican presidential primary, has expressed a willingness to step in as speaker for a period of time if the House GOP fails to agree upon a candidate to fill the slot. (Read more from “Report: Trump ‘Is Endorsing Jim Jordan’ for House Speaker” HERE)

Trump Says He’d Accept the House Speakership Temporarily

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump has said that he would temporarily accept the speakership of the House of Representatives, according to a report by Fox News.

Republican Rep. Kevin McCarthy of California was removed from the speakership on Tuesday in a bipartisan vote of the House of Representatives, following a motion to vacate the chair filed by Republican Rep. Matt Gaetz of Florida. After some members of the House Republican Conference called on Trump to accept the speakership, he said on Thursday that he would be open to doing so for a short period of time, until the party can agree upon a permanent replacement, according to a report by Fox News.

“They have asked me if I would take it for a short period of time for the party, until they come to a conclusion – I’m not doing it because I want to – I will do it if necessary, should they not be able to make their decision,” Trump said. “I would only do it for the party.”

Trump has been publicly lobbied by Republican Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene of Georgia, one of his closest allies in Congress, to seek the office of speaker of the House, primarily through posts on X. Republican Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas also has called on Trump to become the speaker. (Read more from “Trump Says He’d Accept the House Speakership Temporarily” HERE)

Hillary Clinton Calls for ‘Formal Deprogramming’ of MAGA ‘Cult Members’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said Thursday on CNN’s “Primetime” she believed there needed to be a “formal deprogramming of the cult members” who support former President Donald Trump. . .

She continued, “That’s the way it used to be. I mean, we had very strong partisans in both parties in the past and we had very bitter battles over all kinds of things, gun control, and climate change, and the economy, and taxes. But there wasn’t this little tail of extremism wagging the dog of the Republican Party as it is today. And sadly, so many of those extremists, those MAGA extremists, take their marching orders from Donald Trump, who has no credibility left by any measure. He’s only in it for himself. He’s now defending himself in civil actions and criminal actions. When do they break with him? You know, because at some point, you know, maybe there needs to be a formal deprogramming of the cult members. But something needs to happen.” (Read more from “Hillary Clinton Calls for ‘Formal Deprogramming’ of MAGA ‘Cult Members'” HERE)
