Trump Likens US to ‘Person Dying of Cancer’ in Fiery Tirade Against FBI

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump likened the current outlook of the United States to a “person dying of cancer” in a scathing Truth Social post about the FBI.

Talking about Friday’s fresh revelations from the Twitter Files that the social media giant had “constant and pervasive” communications with the bureau, Trump declared that such “thugs and Tyrants must be dealt with,” or else, the country could meet its demise.

“Our Country is SICK inside, very much like a person dying of Cancer. The Crooked FBI, the so-called Department of ‘Justice,’ and ‘Intelligence,’ all parts of the Democrat Party and System, is the Cancer. These Weaponized Thugs and Tyrants must be dealt with, or our once great and beautiful Country will die!!!” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post.

On Friday, journalist Matt Taibbi revealed that the FBI often flagged content for Twitter to review for content moderation purposes and underscored that there had been over 150 emails between the bureau and former Twitter trust and safety chief Yoel Roth between January 2020 to November 2022. At one point, Twitter executives had near weekly meetings with law enforcement officials, the journalist noted.

Trump Backs McCarthy for House Speaker

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump told the conservatives currently withholding support from House GOP leader Kevin McCarthy in McCarthy’s speakership bid to stand down in an exclusive interview with Breitbart News here on Friday.

“I like him,” Trump said of McCarthy, before teeing off on those working against him such as Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Andy Biggs (R-AZ), Matt Rosendale (R-MT), Bob Good (R-VA), and Ralph Norman (R-SC). While Trump did not name those trying to stop McCarthy from taking the Speaker’s gavel on January 3, he in no uncertain terms said he disagrees with their efforts—and warned that there could be serious consequences if McCarthy does not get the gavel and they could make Washington worse for conservatives.

Trump’s interview came Friday morning here at his Doral golf resort in Miami and covered a broad range of topics including the Speakership race and much more.

Trump warned that when conservatives took out now-former House Speaker John Boehner in 2015, they ended with now-former Speaker Paul Ryan—who he said was much worse—in the process. (Read more from “Trump Backs McCarthy for House Speaker” HERE)

House Democrats Move to Bar Trump From Office

/0 Comments/in , /by

Dozens of House Democrats lined up behind legislation that would bar former President Donald Trump from holding office again.

The bill, introduced Thursday by Rep. David Cicilline (D-RI), aims to use Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment to get the job done, accusing Trump of orchestrating an insurrection with the Capitol riot on January 6, 2021, which briefly disrupted the certification of President Joe Biden’s 2020 election victory.

“Donald Trump very clearly engaged in an insurrection on January 6, 2021 with the intention of overturning the lawful and fair results of the 2020 election. You don’t get to lead a government you tried to destroy,” Cicilline said in a statement touting how the legislation is packed with testimony and evidence to make the case against the 45th president.

Forty Democrats have signed on as co-sponsors. The legislation was introduced weeks after Trump announced his 2024 presidential election campaign, setting up would could be a rematch against Biden, who has said he intends to seek reelection.

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump is seeing a double-digit lead in a hypothetical Republican primary race, an NPR/PBS NewsHour/Marist Poll released this week found.

When asked who they believe the presidential nominee should be, provided with Trump, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, former Vice President Mike Pence, or “someone else,” 45 percent of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents chose Trump.

DeSantis, whom many speculate will toss his hat in the ring in 2024, followed 12 points behind, garnering 33 percent support.

Pence did not even come close, as only eight percent chose him. Another 11 percent chose “someone else,” and three percent remain unsure.

Donald Trump Unveils Free Speech Policy Plan to ‘Shatter Left-wing Censorship Regime’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald J. Trump unveiled a free-speech policy platform on Thursday to “shatter the left-wing censorship regime and reclaim the right to free speech for all Americans.”

The 45th president shared a video to his Truth Social account where he details a number of policy steps he would enact, if elected president, to prohibit censorship by government agencies and big tech companies.

These plans include revising Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, establishing a cooling-off period requiring former employees of the FBI, CIA, and other government agencies to wait seven years before joining tech companies that have “vast quantities of U.S. user data,” and establishing a “digital bill of rights,” among several other actions.

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Newsweek. Former President Donald Trump’s mysterious “major announcement” is sparking speculation over what he may be preparing to publicize later this week.

On Wednesday, Trump posted a video on his Truth Social account with the caption, “AMERICA NEEDS A SUPERHERO! I will be making a MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT tomorrow. Thank you!”

The video features a comic book cartoon of Trump in front of the Trump Tower while ripping off a suit to reveal a superhero costume with a letter “T” as laser beams shoot out of his eyes.

Trump did not elaborate on when or where the announcement would take place. Although he revealed little about the December 15 announcement, social media users were quick to guess what the former president had planned for Thursday.

By USA Today. A federal judge dismissed Donald Trump’s lawsuit Monday that sought a special master review of documents seized at Mar-a-Lago, after an appeals court ruled the review was unnecessary. . .

The special master, U.S. District Judge Raymond Dearie, had expected to complete his review by Friday.

The appeals court panel said defendants can challenge the results of search warrants after charges are filed, but generally not before. Trump hasn’t been charged. (Read more from “Judge Tosses Trump’s Lawsuit, Ending Special Master Review of Mar-a-Lago Documents” HERE)

More Twitter Files Revealed, New Drop Details Trump’s ‘Lifetime Ban’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Bari Weiss released part five of the “Twitter Files” on Monday afternoon, specifically detailing the social media company’s removal of former President Donald Trump, a lifetime ban that was reversed last month after Elon Musk took over.

Weiss’ thread picked up the story on January 8, 2021, when Trump had “one remaining strike before being at risk of permanent suspension from Twitter” and he fired off two tweets in the early morning hours. One, a message to those who voted for Trump in the 2020 election, and the second announcing his decision not to attend the inauguration of Joe Biden.

As Weiss explained, “Twitter had resisted calls both internal and external to ban Trump on the grounds that blocking a world leader from the platform or removing their controversial tweets would hide important information that people should be able to see and debate.” That was a stated position of the company, Weiss pointed out. In 2019, Twitter wrote that its “mission is to provide a forum that enables people to be informed and to engage their leaders directly” in order to “protect the public’s right to hear from their leaders and to hold them to account.” . . .

One conversation Weiss tweeted is from an employee who is “from China” and said “I deeply understand how censorship can destroy the public conversation.” Still, Weiss noted, “voices like that one appear to have been a distinct minority within the company” and “many Twitter employees were upset that Trump hadn’t been banned earlier.”

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .Pollsters with the CNBC All-America Economic Survey asked if President Joe Biden or former President Donald Trump should run again. The resounding answer for both: No.

For Trump, 37% of Republicans don’t want him to run again; 61% of independents and 88% of Democrats agree.

Again, worse for Biden: 57% of Democrats said No Joe in ’24, along with 66% of independents and 86% of Republicans.

The poll found that 47% of those who don’t think Biden should run cited age as a major reason, including 61% of Democrats and 66% of seniors, CNBC reported. The younger set was different: just 43% of the 18-49 demographic group cite age as a major reason for Biden, 80, not to run. (Read more from “Trump or Biden in 2024? Americans — Neither!” HERE)

Trump Says He Rejected Russian Offer to Swap Former Marine for ‘Merchant of Death’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump said Sunday that he had previously rejected an attempt by Russia to trade “Merchant of Death” arms dealer Viktor Bout for former US Marine Paul Whelan — insisting he would never free someone who has “killed untold numbers.”

“I turned down a deal with Russia for a one on one swap of the so-called Merchant of Death for Paul Whelan,” Trump, 76, said in a Truth Social post.

“I wouldn’t have made the deal for a hundred people in exchange for someone that has killed untold numbers of people with his arms deals.”

Bout, who was convicted in 2011 of conspiracy to kill Americans by supplying a Colombian terrorist group with weapons, was freed last week in exchange for the return of WNBA star Brittney Griner.

Griner had been sentenced to nine years in a Russian forced labor camp after authorities found vape canisters with cannabis oil in her suitcase when she touched down in Moscow back in February.
