WATCH: President Trump Establishes the Space Command

/0 Comments/in , /by

By The Blaze. President Donald Trump announced the establishment of the U.S. Space Command from the Rose Garden of the White House Thursday.

The president congratulated General Jay Raymond as the first commander of the US Space Command. Raymond had been in command of the Air Force Space Command since October 2016.

The Space Command is not the much promised “Space Force,” which the president said would follow soon.

“SpaceCom will soon be followed, very importantly, by the establishment of the United States Space Force as the sixth branch of the United States Armed Forces, and that’s really something when you think about it,” he said. . .

“SpaceCom will ensure that America’s dominance in space is never questioned, and never threatened,” Trump added, “because we know the best way to prevent conflict is to prepare for victory.” (Read more from “President Trump Establishes the Space Command” HERE)

Trump Declares New Space Command Key to American Defense

By WBNS. . .Space Force, which has become a reliable applause line for Trump at his campaign rallies, has yet to win final approval by Congress.

The renewed focus on space as a military domain reflects concern about the vulnerability of U.S. satellites, both military and commercial, that are critical to U.S. interests and are potentially susceptible to disruption by Chinese and Russian anti-satellite weapons.

The role of the new Space Command is to conduct operations such as enabling satellite-based navigation and communications for troops and commanders in the field and providing warning of missile launches abroad. That is different from a Space Force, which would be a distinct military service like the Army, Navy, Air Force, Marine Corps and Coast Guard.

Biased Media Upset That Trump Allies Are Pushing Back Against the Lies

/0 Comments/in , /by

In case you missed it, CNN’s media roundtable show “Reliable Sources” pulled off something previously thought impossible: it found yet another media bias shark to jump. This time, it was through the bias of omission:

While the horrible liberal bias of the mainstream media has long been known to conservative political and social media junkies, it hasn’t been clear if it is becoming known to more casual observers. It appears as if it is:

Sunday’s New York Times has an article about Trump supporters who are archiving examples of the bias and — SURPRISE! — they’re not at all happy about it:

A loose network of conservative operatives allied with the White House is pursuing what they say will be an aggressive operation to discredit news organizations deemed hostile to President Trump by publicizing damaging information about journalists.

It is the latest step in a long-running effort by Mr. Trump and his allies to undercut the influence of legitimate news reporting. Four people familiar with the operation described how it works, asserting that it has compiled dossiers of potentially embarrassing social media posts and other public statements by hundreds of people who work at some of the country’s most prominent news organizations.

Sad Hillary Attempts to Mock Trump Over ‘Fake News’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Hillary Clinton took to Twitter Monday to react to reports President Trump suggested nuking hurricanes in order to drive them away from the U.S. coast – a report the president has called “ridiculous” and “FAKE NEWS.” . . .

Axios claimed in a piece published Sunday that Trump floated nuking hurricanes to Homeland Security and national security officials as a potential solution to drive hurricanes away from the U.S. coast[:]

During one hurricane briefing at the White House, Trump said, “I got it. I got it. Why don’t we nuke them?” according to one source who was there. “They start forming off the coast of Africa, as they’re moving across the Atlantic, we drop a bomb inside the eye of the hurricane and it disrupts it. Why can’t we do that?” the source added, paraphrasing the president’s remarks.

. . .

However, Trump forcefully pushed back against the Axios report in a tweet Monday, calling it, “ridiculous” and “FAKE NEWS”:

President Trump Hints at ‘Major Middle Income Tax Cut’ With One Condition

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump hinted Saturday that additional tax cuts are in the future for tens of millions of Americans.

However, the president said the “major middle income tax cut” would only become reality if Republicans retain control of the Senate and retake control of the House in 2020.

“If Republicans take back the House, and keep the Senate and Presidency, one of our first acts will be to approve a major middle income Tax Cut!” Trump said. “Democrats only want to raise your taxes!”

. . .

Larry Kudlow, the top White House economic adviser, said this week that Trump could propose new tax cuts before the 2020 presidential election that would additional economic relief for individuals and small businesses.

“The personal tax rates could easily be lowered, and probably the brackets could be shrunk. That’s a thought,” Kudlow said. “We might even kind of work through a way to help our friends in some of the states who are concerned about the shrinkage of the tax deductions there … the SALT taxes.” (Read more from “President Trump Hints at ‘Major Middle Income Tax Cut’ With One Condition” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

United States President Donald J. Trump alongside Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe announced on Sunday the framework for a massive trade deal between the two countries. While nothing has been signed yet, the potential agreement could bolster both economies by billions.

“We’ve been working on a deal with Japan for a long time. And we’ve agreed in principle,” President Trump told the press at the G7 Summit.

“We successfully reached consensus with regard to the core elements related to agricultural and industrial trade,” Abe told the media via a translator. “We still have some remaining work that has to be done at the working level.” . . .

“With regard to the potential purchase of American corn, in Japan, we are now experiencing insect pests on some agricultural products,” Abe added. “And there is a need for us to buy some of the agricultural products.”

Trump Tariffs Tank Asian Equities, Chinese Yuan. China Ready to Negotiate.

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Wire. President Donald Trump’s latest trade war escalation against China appears to have had an immediate effect on Asian markets and the Chinese Yuan, sending both tumbling early on Monday morning.

“China’s yuan currency fell to 7.1487 to the dollar, its weakest level since early 2008 at the height of the global financial crisis,” AFP reported. “On equity markets, Hong Kong led losses, slumping more than three percent, with investors also spooked by fresh violent protests in the city that saw police use water cannon for the first time. Shanghai lost 1.3 percent and Tokyo ended the morning more than two percent off.”

Chinese Vice Premier Liu He indicated early on Monday that the communist nation was willing to negotiate with the U.S. to prevent the trade war from escalating. (Read more from “Trump Tariffs Tank Asian Equities, Chinese Yuan. China Ready to Negotiate.” HERE)

WATCH: CNN Host Allows Guest to Claim Trump Worst Than Hitler, Mao, Stalin

/0 Comments/in , /by

CNN’s Brian Stelter allowed psychiatrist Allen Frances to make wildly false claims about President Donald Trump on his Sunday show and offered zero pushback to any of Frances’ remarks which sparked intense backlash against the far-left network.

Frances’ false claims about the president came during a segment in which Stelter, who ironically hosts a show called “Reliable Sources,” brought on a second psychiatrist to bash the president.

“Well, I think ‘medicalizing’ politics has three very dire consequences,” Frances began. “The first is that it stigmatizes the mentally ill. I’ve known thousands of patients, almost all of them have been well-behaved, well-mannered, good people. Trump is none of these. Lumping the mentally ill with Trump is a terrible insult to the mentally ill and they have enough problems and stigma as it is.”

“The second issue is, calling Trump crazy hides the fact that we’re crazy for having elected him and even crazier for allowing his crazy policies to persist,” Frances continued. “Trump is as destructive of person in this century as Hitler, Stalin, Mao were in the last century. He may be responsible for many more million deaths than they were.”

Adolf Hitler, Joseph Stalin, and Mao Zedong are the three most notorious mass murderers in world history with all three men directly being responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of innocent people.

Nancy Pelosi Just Delivered a Kill Shot to House Democrats’ Impeachment Hopes

/0 Comments/in , /by

. . .So, a majority of House Democrats backs impeaching Trump. What say, you Speaker Nancy Pelosi? She isn’t budging. She knows this move will animate the GOP base. This is the declaration of nuclear political war, and she knows her side could very well lose. In fact, she knows it will; the Republicans control the Senate and they’re not going to go along with this nonsense. The Trump-Russia collusion myth has been thoroughly dissected as trash. There is no appetite to impeach with voters. As our friends at Twitchy noted, even pollsters are signaling that support for impeaching Trump has dropped.

Trump Tightens the Noose on China; U.S. Firms Clash With President Over ‘Order’ to Abandon China

/0 Comments/in , /by

By Daily Wire. President Donald Trump announced retaliatory measures against China on Friday after the Chinese government imposed tariffs on the United States, stating that he is increasing tariffs on hundreds of billions of dollars of Chinese goods by an additional 5%.

“For many years China (and many other countries) has been taking advantage of the United States on Trade, Intellectual Property Theft, and much more. Our Country has been losing HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS OF DOLLARS a year to China, with no end in sight,” Trump tweeted. “Sadly, past Administrations have allowed China to get so far ahead of Fair and Balanced Trade that it has become a great burden to the American Taxpayer. As President, I can no longer allow this to happen! In the spirit of achieving Fair Trade, we must Balance this very….” . . .

“Trump’s tweets about China earlier Friday helped to send major U.S. stock indexes spiraling more than 2% for the day,” CNBC reported. “The trade war intensified in the morning when China announced new tariffs on $75 billion in U.S. goods in retaliation to the U.S. duties on $300 billion in Chinese products.” (Read more from “Trump Tightens the Noose on China” HERE)

Trade War Explodes as Trump Clashes With Us Firms Over ‘Order’ to Abandon China, Block Fentanyl Shipments

By Fox News. President Trump’s trade war with China boiled over Friday as Beijing slapped retaliatory tariffs on America and the president declared he’s ordering U.S. companies to prepare to leave the country and relocate back home — prompting pushback from corporate America. . .

But as Trump rejects such warnings while keeping his foot on the gas in the clash with China, American businesses responded to his latest guidance by urging continued trade talks.

The U.S. Chamber of Commerce issued a statement saying it wants to see continued “constructive engagement” with China.

“The U.S. business community has for many years called out the lack of progress in addressing China’s unfair trade practices. … Despite our concerns, the 40-year-old trade relationship between our two countries has been for the most part productive, constructive, and mutually beneficial,” said Myron Brilliant, executive vice president of the U.S. Chamber of Commerce.

“While we share the President’s frustration, we believe that continued, constructive engagement is the right way forward. Time is of the essence. We do not want to see a further deterioration of US-China relations. We urge the administration and the government of China to return to the negotiating table.” (Read more from “Trade War Explodes as Trump Clashes With Us Firms Over ‘Order’ to Abandon China, Block Fentanyl Shipments” HERE)

WATCH: Did This Pageant Queen Get Her Crown Stripped for Supporting Trump?

/0 Comments/in , /by

Earlier this week, Ms. America Pageant contestant Katie Williams, a combat veteran and member of the Army National Guard, claimed that her Ms. Nevada State title was stripped from her because of her conservative views, which included public support for President Donald Trump.

Williams posted an eight-minute video to Facebook on Monday, which quickly went viral, claiming she separated her personal and pageant-related social media content as directed, and said other contestants posted about left-leaning activism without repercussion.

However, pageant CEO Susan Jeske, who is apparently a supporter of the president, too, said Williams was stripped of her title for not following the “no politics” rule, to which she agreed. . .

In a facebook post addressing the apparent misinformation, Jeske bluntly claimed, “Katie Williams is distorting the facts.”

“ALL the pageant asked of Ms. Williams, in writing, is to keep separate social media accounts. (ie: Facebook) One is for politics where she can voice her own opinion as Katie Williams and the other is a new Facebook page for the pageant representing Ms. Nevada State 2019. None of this had to do with her personal political views,” she wrote.

“The Ms. America Pageant is a No Politics pageant. It is in our Rules & Regulations as posted on the pageant website and therefore available to read before applying to the pageant,” she continued, noting, “It is also included in our contracts and requires handwritten initials and signatures acknowledging that you have read and understood the pageants rules.”
