Twelve percent of respondents stated they remain undecided on who to vote for in the Senate election.

Father Mourning Loss of Son Killed in CHOP Zone Gets Call of Support From President Trump

/0 Comments/in , /by

On the day he buried his 19-year-old son, who was gunned down in Seattle’s lawless ‘CHOP’ zone, Horace Lorenzo Anderson Sr. got a phone call from President Trump, who had been moved by his heart-wrenching appearance the night before on Fox News Channel’s “Hannity.”

Anderson’s son, Horace Lorenzo Anderson Jr., was killed in the early hours of June 20, when shots rang out near the border of the six-block zone the city had given up for three chaotic weeks. In the emotional interview with Sean Hannity, a tearful Anderson said he hadn’t been able to get answers from the city about his son’s death, and disclosed that he had not even been contacted by Mayor Jenny Durkan.

But, the mayor, a Democrat, did reach out to Anderson later Wednesday, and a call from Trump followed later.

“We just talked to the president of the United States,” Anderson’s friend and family spokesman Andre Taylor, who took part in Wednesday’s interview, told Fox News. “How are you going to top that?”

Taylor said Trump told Anderson he saw his interview with Hannity Wednesday night and was moved by the grieving father’s grace in the face of tragedy. In what Taylor said was a seven-minute call, Trump offered his condolences and support.

Sioux President Calls for Mount Rushmore to Be ‘Removed’

/0 Comments/in , /by

As President Trump prepares to visit Mount Rushmore next week, a South Dakota tribal president is preparing a memo of disapproval.

Oglala Sioux President Julian Bear Runner says the president failed to consult with tribal leaders about the visit to the Black Hills, which the Sioux consider part of their Great Sioux Reservation, land that was never ceded to the United States. Bear Runner said Trump’s visit requited government-to-government consultation between the tribes and the federal government.

And one other thing: Bear Runner thinks Mount Rushmore should come down.

“I don’t believe it should be blown up, because it would cause more damage to the land,” he said, noting that Indian artifacts could be damaged. But there are other methods to take down the monument that would have less environmental impact.

“I agree,” he said. “Removed but not blown up.” (Read more from “Sioux President Calls for Mount Rushmore to Be ‘Removed'” HERE)

WATCH: Biden Literally Forgets Trump’s Name When Answering a Question About Cognitive Ability

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Sometimes the truth is more entertaining than fiction—especially when it involves Joe Biden claiming with bravado that he is looking forward to facing off against Trump.

At one of his little campaign events in Wilmington, Delaware, Joe Biden was asked about concerns over his cognitive decline and it did not go well.

“Have you been tested for some degree of cognitive decline,” asked Fox News’ Doug McKelway.

“I’ve been tested, I’m constantly tested,” Biden replied. “Look, all you’ve got to do is watch me,” he added.

Biden Woos Asian American Voters After Trump ‘Kung Flu’ Quips

/0 Comments/in , /by

As President Trump stoked outrage by calling COVID-19 the “kung flu,” presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden was quietly courting Asian American voters.

And Biden’s efforts could pad his electoral edge in crucial, culturally diverse battleground states, such as Nevada, Texas, and Georgia.

“Asian Americans are being targeted with violence and subjected to xenophobic rhetoric from the mouth of the president himself,” Biden told Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote’s presidential forum last weekend. . .

Asian Americans represent the fast-growing demographic of eligible voters compared to other major races and ethnicities, the Pew Research Center found last month. The group’s comprised of about 11 million eligible voters, or 5% of the country’s eligible population, up 139% over the past two decades. And the advantage for Biden is that they lean Democratic.

In 2018, Asian and Pacific Islander American Vote estimated that more than 40% of Asian Americans identify as Democrats, as opposed to almost 30% who consider themselves Republicans and roughly the same percentage who think of themselves as independents. To put that in context, of the 5 million Asian Americans who voted in 2016, 4% of the total electorate, three-quarters supported Hillary Clinton to the quarter who cast a ballot for Trump.

The Likely Reason Trump Wasn’t Briefed on Russia’s Taliban Plot

/0 Comments/in , /by

The New York Times correctly reported on Friday that U.S. intelligence officials believe Russia’s GRU intelligence service paid the Taliban to attack coalition forces in Afghanistan. But even as he hasn’t refuted the reporting, the director of national intelligence has confirmed the White House’s statement that President Trump did not receive intelligence briefings on the matter. . .

That said, the New York Times’s reporting is broadly accurate. I have moderate-high confidence that illuminating the GRU operation has been best enabled by very closely guarded CIA reporting. However, the other keystone Russia-collection agency, the NSA, appears to have been unable to corroborate the CIA’s reporting with their own signal collection efforts. This means that the United States currently lacks a direct operational link from the plot to the Kremlin (which would figure because communicating with Moscow would trigger attention from various U.S. intelligence capabilities) having been established. Whether the Taliban have actually carried out any attacks at the GRU’s specific behest is also unclear.

This context would explain why the Office of the Director of National Intelligence didn’t add the GRU cash-for-killing plot into its briefings for Trump. To make it into the presidential daily brief, the daily intelligence product produced by the DNI for the president and other top officials, intelligence reporting must address an imminent concern or be assessed as very reliable (“high confidence”). The DNI doesn’t want to report things to Trump that it’s not very confident about already.

Moreover, Trump’s presidential daily briefs will have previously included reporting on GRU operations targeting American interests in Afghanistan. This Russian effort, directed by Vladimir Putin, centers on GRU and the SVR efforts to see the Taliban and other groups escalate their hostile activities.

The Kremlin’s strategic objective is to bleed the U.S. of life, prestige, and treasure, and ultimately pressure us out of Afghanistan. Putin also wishes to detach the Afghan government from Western interests. In turn, it’s important to note that the GRU cash-for-killings concern is just one slice of a big Russian intelligence cake in Afghanistan. Alongside its apparent engaging of the Taliban to kill American and coalition soldiers, the GRU has supported the group with arms, money, and intelligence material to enable its attacks and improve its operational security.

President Trump Highlights Mail-In Ballot Fraud Using Recent New Jersey Example

/0 Comments/in , /by

Earlier this evening President Trump noted the ease of mail-in voting fraud by highlighting the recent New Jersey election where election fraud charges have been brought against against four people including: Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson (D), Councilman-elect Alex Mendez (D), Shelim Khalique, and Abu Razyen. [Background Here]

New Jersey – Attorney General Gurbir S. Grewal today announced voting fraud charges against Paterson City Councilman Michael Jackson, Councilman-Elect Alex Mendez, and two other men in connection with the May 12, 2020 special election in the City of Paterson. All four men are charged with criminal conduct involving mail-in ballots during the election, Grewal said.

The investigation by the Attorney General’s Office of Public Integrity & Accountability (OPIA) began when the U.S. Postal Inspection Service alerted the Attorney General’s Office that hundreds of mail-in ballots were found in a mailbox in Paterson. Numerous additional ballots were found in a mailbox in nearby Haledon.

Dueto the COVID-19 pandemic, all voting in May 12 elections in New Jersey was done by mail-in ballots. (read more)

Nationally, Nancy Pelosi and top DNC Democrats have openly stated their intention is to force mail-in ballots in all states for the 2020 presidential election contest. The open intent is to use mail-in ballots as a purposeful way to win the election. To accomplish this goal panic around the COVID-19 virus is needed.

Mail-in ballots are notorious for voter fraud:

(1) Duplicate ballots can be sent to specific zip codes for specific parties allowing voters to cast several ballots.

(2) Fraudulent or counterfeit ballots can be created allowing unlimited fraudulent voting.

(3) The mail system can be used to control ballot delivery and/or return.

(4) Intercepted and selected ballot destruction is commonplace amid election precincts where wide-scale voter ballots have been used before.

(5) Political operatives working directly or bribing USPS employees for ballot control.

(6) Ballots sent to former addresses allowing multiple votes.

(7) Ballots sent to inactive or deceased voters allowing votes cast by ineligible persons.

(8) Millions of ballots sent to non-citizens as part of the motor-voter fraud; a common democrat initiative as used in California.

The list is long…. The entire process of mail-in ballots is built upon systemic and purposeful fraud intended to disfranchise eligible U.S. voters; and there is very little criminal accountability for the process.

Year-after-year, election after election, Broward County Florida has intentionally and purposefully used mail-in (absentee) ballots as the tool to manipulate their elections.

Trump Calls for Tougher Republican Response to ‘Political War’; Twitter Restricts Trump Comment of ‘Serious Force’ Against Rioters

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Federalist. In a wide-ranging interview in the Oval Office Friday, President Donald J. Trump said that the country is in the midst of “a political war … where the left will use anything to win, including the culture.”

The president said that to restore order and win in 2020, his Republican allies “need to be stronger” in standing up to rioters and those who would tear down statues. “They’ve got to get much tougher,” Trump said, drawing comparisons to moments when Republicans stood together on impeachment and in battles over judicial nominees. “They have to be stronger, have to come together,” or risk losing politically and worse.

While acknowledging the “horrible” scene that played out in Minnesota with the death of George Floyd, Trump argued that the Floyd-related protest movement has since morphed into an “anti-cop, defund the police, anti-American” movement that puts American communities at risk. . .

“Republicans need to be fighting,” Trump said, citing the ideology of the more radical agitators in the streets as “vicious” and “seditious.” As the president recognizes, the goals of those sowing the seeds of unrest are clear. “You see their leaders on TV saying ‘give us what we want, or we’ll burn down this system and replace it.’ That’s almost terrorism.” (Read more from “Trump Calls for Tougher Republican Response to ‘Political War’” HERE)

Twitter Restricts Trump Comment of ‘Serious Force’ Against Protesters

By The Verge. Twitter has continued its policy of labeling — but not removing — rule-breaking tweets from President Donald Trump. The company restricted a Trump post promising “serious force” against a potential Washington, DC equivalent to Seattle’s Capitol Hill Occupied Protest zone.

“We’ve placed a public interest notice on this Tweet for violating our policy against abusive behavior, specifically, the presence of a threat of harm against an identifiable group,” writes Twitter’s safety team. The warning is posted above the tweet and appears if users try to retweet it. Following Twitter’s usual policy for world leaders whose tweets serve a “public interest,” however, it won’t be deleted.

MSM Totally Twists Truth Again: Trump Didn’t Hear ‘White Power’ Shouted in Video He Retweeted, Man Who Said it Wasn’t Serious (VIDEO)

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump did not hear the phrase “white power” being shouted in a clip of his supporters that he retweeted and then deleted over the weekend, according to White House spokesman Judd Deere.

Deere told CBS News on Sunday that Trump retweeted the video because it showed the “enthusiasm” his voters have for him in The Villages in Florida. He said that Trump focused on the passion of the crowd and did not hear one man shout, “White power!”

“President Trump is a big fan of The Villages. He did not hear the one statement made on the video. What he did see was tremendous enthusiasm from his many supporters,” Deere said.

The video in question shows several older Trump supporters shouting the president’s name and other phrases, such as, “Make America great again,” while holding a golf cart parade through the town, which is exclusively for senior living. When the parade passed by an anti-Trump demonstration, one of the men in the video shouted, “White power!” A man who appeared to be an anti-Trump protester repeated the older man’s word’s in disgust, saying, “There you go, white power.”

White Power Exchange Occurred Only After Man was Repeatedly Taunted as a Racist

By Eddie Scarry. “I’m stunned that the president retweeted this video in which one of his apparent supporters shouts ‘white power,'” Tapper said to Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar. “I assume that’s not a message you stand by” . . .

But what Tapper didn’t explain at any point was that the man who yelled “white power” was only taunting a man already yelling at him, over and over again, calling him a racist.

In the video, you see a line of golf carts like a mini-parade, and they have pro-Trump signs on them. On the sidelines are Trump detractors yelling “Racist!” at all of the carts passing by. And so one of them yells back, “Yeah? White power! White power!”

It was obviously intended as a rejoinder to the man calling him a racist simply for supporting the president. It doesn’t appear to be a declaration of his fealty to the Ku Klux Klan, but an annoyed expression of the meaninglessness in 2020 of calling anyone racist, since liberals have defined the word as “anyone I disagree with.” (Read more from the rest of the story about the White Power tweet HERE)
