Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said Friday he is continuing his 2024 campaign despite rumors he was considering suspending his bid and endorsing GOP rival Donald Trump. “I’m in it to win it. I lead in popularity and independents are now the largest voting bloc. Momentum is shifting in my favor as I close in on ballot access in all 50 states,” Kennedy wrote on X. “I look forward to challenging President Trump and the DNC nominee at the next debate,” he added. RFK Jr. was responding to chair of Students for Trump Ryan Fournier who wrote, “BREAKING: RFK Jr canceled multiple campaign events, and is to drop out

I expect Kennedy to drop out. He does not want to be the bad guy who is blamed for a President Trump election victory.

Charles Payne just talked to him. I admit I could never vote for a Kennedy. But he doesn’t make my skin crawl and stomach churn like the communists do.

I hope you do run as an independent. Every vote you get comes out of Kamala's pocket.

Former President Donald Trump condemned a rocket attack by Hezbollah on Saturday that killed 12 Israeli Arab children in the Golan Heights, blaming President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris for their weakness. Trump commented just hours after a Hezbollah rocket killed at least 12 children in an Israeli Arab Druze village, Madjal Shams, in the northern Golan Heights. Trump told supporters at a rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota: Before we begin, I want to condemn the evil attack on Israel that took place earlier today. A missile launched by Hezbollah killed at least a dozen children — young children. And they were playing, as you heard, on a soccer field

The University of Alabama is the latest school to close its Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) offices, joining public colleges in Texas and Florida in doing away with the programs that encourage discrimination based on race and sex. The publicly funded university closed its DEI offices at its Tuscaloosa, Birmingham, and Huntsville campuses on Tuesday in order to comply with a recently passed Alabama law prohibits public institutions from promoting “divisive concepts,” according to a report by the New York Post. In March, Alabama Gov. Kay Ivey (R) signed Senate Bill 129 (SB129) into the law. It is set to take effect on October 1. The new law forbids certain governmen

Former President Donald Trump praised a female Secret Service agent at a rally in St. Cloud, Minnesota, on Saturday who shielded him with her body during the assassination attempt that nearly killed him at a rally earlier this month. The Secret Service has faced intense criticism since the event for leaving Trump exposed to gunfire from a nearby rooftop, and also for using female agents who were smaller than Trump and who, critics said, struggled to respond. The use of female agents has been ascribed to “diversity, equity, inclusion” (DEI) policies, which are a major target

Republican vice presidential nominee Sen. JD Vance’s (OH) Secret Service code name has reportedly been revealed after a “friend” leaked it to the Daily Mail. While Secret Service aliases were historically used with a “real cloak-and-dagger purpose,” they are largely ceremonial in the age of encrypted technology, according to Fox News. Appearing to reference the mascots of Ohio University and Breathitt County High School in Jackson, Kentucky — the town Vance wrote about in his bestselling memoir, Hillbilly Elegy — the Daily Mail reported that his unique code name is “Bobcat.”

President Wilson’s incapacity for office in 1920 was concealed. In contrast, President Biden’s incapacity for office is being celebrated by the mainstream press and his party, while they simultaneously prop him up to remain in office as the titular commander in chief. It is his vice president and potential successor who is sent forth to read a speech rebuking a close American ally (Israel) and setting the foreign-policy terms for the future. An anonymous coterie in the White House will be making the key decisions for the next five months. There is no precedent for this.

A rocket attack Saturday on a soccer field in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights killed at least 11 people and wounded several others, including children, Israel said, hours after an Israeli airstrike on south Lebanon killed three members of the militant Hezbollah group. The strike, the deadliest attack on an Israeli target since the fighting between the two foes erupted in October, raised fears of a broader conflagration in the region. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu was returning home as quickly as possible after a trip to the United States, his office said. Hezbollah said it struck a military base in the Golan Heights in retaliation

Donald Trump promised on Friday that despite warnings from the Secret Service, he would hold more outdoor rallies soon. "I WILL CONTINUE TO DO OUTDOOR RALLIES, AND SECRET SERVICE HAS AGREED TO SUBSTANTIALLY STEP UP THEIR OPERATION," the former president wrote on his Truth Social site. "THEY ARE VERY CAPABLE OF DOING SO. NO ONE CAN EVER BE ALLOWED TO STOP OR IMPEDE FREE SPEECH OR GATHERING!!!" Sarah Matthews, a former Trump spokeswoman, said that Trump loved the big crowds that outdoor rallies afforded. “We’ve seen from the early days of his presidency even, and before that

Don't believe your own eyes. That was the message from the far-left following the assassination attempt on Donald Trump as they spread conspiracy theories that he wasn't actually shot. Claims ranged from "it was glass" to the entire shooting being staged. That's expected from the BlueAnon lunatics. It's less expected from the head of the Federal Bureau of Investigation. As RedState reported, FBI Director Christopher Wray decided it'd be a good idea to spread the left-wing conspiracy theory that Trump wasn't hit by a bullet.

Elon Musk's SpaceX turned a smallbore squabble about an alleged unfair labor practice into a massive assault on the administrative state that could result in the entire enforcement structure of the National Labor Relations Board being declared unconstitutional. In an opinion released Thursday, US District Judge Alan Albright of the Western District of Texas, a Trump appointee, ruled that SpaceX "has demonstrated a substantial likelihood of success on its claims that Congress has impermissibly protected both the NLRB Members and the NLRB ALJs from the President’s Article II power of removal." The case started with SpaceX firing eight engineers for circulating a letter criticizing Musk for alleged "sexist conduct"

Many people are wondering how and why the protests against Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu got so out of control on Wednesday. In addition to the vandalism, tearing down of the American flag, and general violence, the police trying to control the crowd were violently attacked. Well, there is a simple answer: there were only 29 Park Police who could defend the sites against the rampaging mob, and the Department of the Interior was unwilling to help those guys out. Dealing with a violent mob consisting of thousands of Antifa and pro-Hamas proto-terrorists, they were outmanned beyond belief.

President Joe Biden is reportedly planning to unveil a dramatic Supreme Court reform next week in an attempt to overhaul the high court. Two people familiar with the matter told Politico that the president is likely to endorse establishing term limits for justices, and bring in a code of ethics. The 81-year-old is expected to push for an amendment that would limit immunity for presidents and other officeholders. His amendment would come directly after the court ruled that presidents are shielded from prosecution for officials acts, in a case brought by Donald Trump. According to the outlet, the specifics remain unclear and could still change sources said.

Sen. Mitt Romney (R-UT) praised the opening ceremony of the Olympics in Paris, France, as being “imaginative, inventive and memorable.” The opening ceremony featured an opening dance number that showed women being “flung around on poles,” while another dance number showed three dancers, two men and a woman, who had been dancing through the streets, going up the stairs of a building as they began kissing. The dancers then went into a room and began to kiss some more. Lady Gaga also sang French songs in a prerecorded opening, while Celine Dion sang from the Eiffel Tower.

A crew of drag queens and dancers performed an apparent “parody of the Last Supper” at the 2024 Paris Olympics opening ceremony Friday, drawing intense criticism across social media. “This is crazy. Opening your event by replacing Jesus and the disciples at the Last Supper with men in drag,” Clint Russel, the host of the Liberty Lockdown podcast, fumed on X. “There are 2.4 billion Christians on earth and apparently the Olympics wanted to declare loudly to all of them, right out of the gate NOT WELCOME,” said Russel.

It's been a week since Joe Biden left the presidential race, and he's barely been seen in public. After a fumbling Oval Office address on Thursday in which he failed to offer any explanation for his sudden departure, the president headed off to Camp David. That would be the same Camp David he hid out at before the debate performance that exposed his worsening mental and physical condition. In other words, his heading back to hunker down there is a pretty big sign of how bad off he is. Biden just suffered the most embarrassing moment of his career, clearly due to worsening health.

First, a lot of people want to talk about it, I do not.

Physical evil manifesting and parading in front of the world as if Baal was the organizer of the events. *snip) What I will say is that a faceless demon riding a pale horse down the river Siene, to hand the Olympic flag to a team of demons who hoisted it “upside down” sounds exactly like the culture French President Emmanuel Macron has created for his nation.

A military family who lost custody of their autistic son after they refused to transition his gender are suing a major DC hospital. The family said their boy had never shown any desire to become a girl until, at 16, he was hospitalized for self-harming after a bitter breakup with his girlfriend in 2021. Staff at Children's National Hospital informed the family that he wanted to be female and should be referred to using she/her pronouns going forward, the suit claims.

A Kamala Harris presidency would be historic - but not for the reason you think. The VP's late entry into the 2024 presidential race has raised the prospect of America having its shortest ever leader. At 5ft 2, Harris would be the shortest president since the 6ft 1.5in George Washington took up the role in 1789 (although Harris strongly insists she's around 5ft 4).Statistics suggest that candidates' stature plays a crucial role in whether they're picked for the next president. Two-thirds of US presidential candidates who have won the popular vote were taller than their rival and the average height of US presidents is around 6ft.

From the moment that the 2024 Paris Olympics launched its opening ceremony with an elaborate street dance scene, it became clear that pushing the LGBTQ agenda was at the top of the program with a sequence that made the opening the “gayest opening ceremony ever.” The opening dance number featured women flung around on poles as rain fell on the ceremonies. Others danced in the streets, including men lovingly embracing each other as they cavorted onto one of the many bridges across the Seine River in Paris. However, one of the prerecorded dance segments was even more explicitly LGBT, as three dancers in gender-ambiguous costumes ran through the streets of Paris
