Shouldn't two assassination attempts in the space of a couple of months be a big deal?

A poll in the wake of the latest would-be leftist murder spree - let's not forget the baseball diamond Democrat shooter and the spate of trans freaks slaughtering innocents for insufficiently catering to their sick gender delusions - found some stunning numbers.

About 28% of Democrats surveyed said that yes, America would be better off if Trump was assassinated.

As astonishing as it seems, over a quarter of Democrats were willing to confess to a stranger that they were hoping for the murder of a political opponent.

What we have is a Democrat Party where the majority of its members do not unequivocally think that killing Donald Trump is a bad thing.

You cannot have a society where people compete for votes and where the people govern themselves if one faction decides - as the Democrats have - to change the rules so that their opponents never get to win.

We're supposed to be able to speak freely, but the Democrats label anything they don't like as "Misinformation" and attempt to censor or prosecute it.

Now, the Democrats dog whistle for nutty killers to murder their main opponent and a substantial number of their constituents feel comfortable either not caring or cheerleading it.

FDA & U.S. Postal Service Linked to Black Market Abortion Pill Cartels.

Mexico-based drug cartels facilitating an increase in unauthorized, self-conducted abortions in the United States continue unimpeded partly due to insufficient regulation by the Food and Drug Administration and the United States Postal Service, according to a report by the American Life League.

Katie Brown, ALL's national director, criticizes the FDA and USPS for failing to adequately regulate the distribution and screening of abortion-inducing drugs like Mifepristone and Misoprostol.

Subscribe here The report, titled Beneath the Surface: Exposing the Abortion Pill Drug Cartel, highlights the operations of Las Libres, a Mexico-based organization that advocates for universal abortion access.

It promotes the distribution of abortion pills through online networks, reaching women and girls across the U.S., often sending the drugs via USPS. RISKS. ALL emphasizes that these pills frequently come from unregulated sources, heightening the risks of additional harmful substances being present.

The report warns that the current situation enables traffickers to exploit women by providing these pills without proper oversight.

The Las Libres website prominently features a direct link to access abortion pills, advising visitors to use encrypted email services to request the drugs.

Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris recently claimed a "Trump Abortion Ban" caused the death of Amber Thurman, a Georgia woman who wanted to abort her unborn twin babies.

The Growing FOIA Backlog Undermines Government Transparency

GAO notes that FOIA is a critical tool for the public to access federal government information, but that the “growing government-wide request backlog undermines transparency and accountability.” The federal auditor recommended that the DOJ’s Office of Information Policy require that agencies include elements of effective action plans in their backlog reduction plans, including specific goals, performance measures and time frames for implementing actions.

GAO found that by fiscal 2022, the federal FOIA backlog had grown to more than 200,000, continuing a long-term upward trend.

“This growing backlog can hinder government transparency and accountability, and slow individuals’ access to information,” the report stated.

In its own efforts in obtaining public information for the public, the Taxpayers Protection Alliance Foundation (TPAF) has experienced significant delays, waiting more than a year on at least one FOIA request.

The U.S. Government Accountability Office found that while federal agencies are generally required to process open records requests within 20 working days, the backlog of Freedom of Information Act requests has risen considerably in recent years.

One federal employee told GAO that 90% of the agency’s FOIA resources are dedicated to processing cases in FOIA litigation.

The Port Strike Is Happening Tuesday: What Does It Mean for American Consumers and Small Businesses?

Longshoremen negotiators informed the press on Sunday that talks have stalled and that the October 1 strike is going to happen Tuesday. Retailers brace for what is expected to be massive shortages affecting multiple industries.

A prolonged strike would force companies to pay shippers for the delays, and goods could arrive too late for the high point of the holiday shopping season.

Miami Port Now, after seemingly rushing to address every crisis, top Biden administration officials met with port operators on Friday and told them they should negotiate with the union ahead of Tuesday, according to a White House official who insisted on anonymity to discuss an ongoing meeting.

The National Grain and Feed Association also urged Biden to take action to avert a strike, which would come just as harvest season gets underway.

Their push has put Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, in a sensitive position: Both have courted union support and don't want to be seen as pressuring the longshoremen to reach a settlement.

Under the Taft-Hartley Act, Biden could seek a court order to suspend the strike for an 80-day cooling-off period.

Biden and Congress did step in two years ago to block a looming freight rail strike and force those workers to accept a deal because of widespread fears that a rail strike would have damaged the economy.

Alex Hertel-Fernandez, an associate professor of international and public affairs at Columbia University who served as a Labor Department official under Biden, suggested that the administration will follow the playbook it used in talks last year between West Coast ports and the union there: Mediating negotiations without directly intervening.

Lawmakers investigate Soros ‘shortcut’ to buying radio stations before election

The U.S. House Oversight Committee is investigating why the Federal Communications Commission fast-tracked a deal that allowed a billionaire Democratic donor to buy a wide swath of American radio stations just weeks before the presidential election.

The major radio company Audacy Inc. fell into financial straits, but through a complex business deal Democratic mega donor and billionaire George Soros has gained control of the stations.

“Conservative talk radio is huge, and there is no left wing talk radio because it's just not interesting,” said Gonzalez, who is now at the Heritage Foundation.

However, Soros’ influence over so many radio stations may have even more influence over the country than one of the major papers, which Americans usually see as having a certain political leaning.

Deals of this size require FCC approval, but in this case the FCC expedited the approval process.

“By all appearances, the FCC majority isn’t just expediting, but is bypassing an established process to do a favor for George Soros and facilitate his influence over hundreds of radio stations before the November election.” Critics of the deal say it gives too much power to a heavily political, and liberal, billionaire just before the election.

“Conservative talk radio is one of the few communications that conservatives have not a monopoly on but have a strong handle on, and he has bought stations that have Mark Levin and Sean Hannity and Dana Loesch and Glenn Beck.” Critics also point out that Soros’ business partners in the deal include significant funding from sources overseas.

DOJ Dusts Off Civil War-Era Statute to Replace 1512(c)(2)

Obsessed with targeting Trump supporters, the DOJ is now charging multiple defendants with a Civil War-era statute-18 U.S.C. 372-which punishes those who intimidate "Officers of the United States" from their posts.

Title 18 U.S.C. 372 punishes conspiracies "To prevent, by force, intimidation, or threat, any person from accepting or holding any office, trust, or place of confidence under the United States, or from discharging any duties thereof, or to induce by like means any officer of the United States to leave the place, where his duties as an officer are required to be performed[.]" The DOJ's position is that Members of Congress hold the "Offices" and are the "Officers of the United States" that are covered by Section 372 and, accordingly, that J6ers can be prosecuted for allegedly causing their evacuation from Capitol Hill.

A Member of Congress does not receive a "Commission" because he or she, unlike federal judges, executive branch appointees, and military officers, is not an "Officer of the United States" and does not hold an "Office, trust, or place confidence."

In court filings, the DOJ has not disputed that, under the Constitution, Members of Congress are not "Officers of the United States." Instead, the DOJ argues that the 1861 Congress that enacted Section 372 used the term "Officer of the United States" in a sense broader than the technical, constitutional definition.

Binding Supreme Court precedent from the 19th century holds that, when used in federal criminal statutes, the terms "Office," "Officer," and "Officer of the United States," absent unambiguous language to the contrary, refer to individuals who received positions via the Appointments Clause of the Constitution.

In one of those cases decided in 1878, United States v. Germaine, a surgeon hired by the Commissioner of Pensions was indicted for extortion while serving as, in the words of the statute, an "Officer of the United States." Arguing for the indictment's dismissal, the surgeon argued that because he was not appointed to his position pursuant to the Appointments Clause, he could not be convicted of violating a statute, which applied only to "Officers of the United States." The Supreme Court agreed, ruling that absent unambiguous language to the contrary, the term "Officer of the United States," when used in criminal statutes, is limited to individuals appointed pursuant to the Appointments Clause.

This statute punishes conspiracies aimed at preventing individuals "From accepting or holding any office, trust, or place of confidence under the United States[.]" Members of Congress, obviously, do not "Accept" their positions-instead, they assume or take office.

Leaked Conversation Between Arizona’s Democrat Gov, Attorney General, and Secretary of State Reveals Attempt to Cover Up 98,000 Voter Registration Glitch – Officials Worried About Calls for New 2020 and 2022 Elections

A newly leaked phone call between Arizona’s Democratic statewide officeholders reveals how they scrambled to find a narrative before announcing a statewide error that validated the citizenship of nearly 100,000 voters.

“It’s going to validate all of their theories about illegal voting in our elections,” said Arizona Governor Katie Hobbs on the call obtained by the Washington Post.

Democrat Attorney General Kris Mayes admitted that “all of these elections are challengeable” as a result of the state not verifying voters’ citizenship.

Notably, Katie Hobbs, as Secretary of State, was responsible for overseeing the elections in 2020 and 2022.

“They’re going to be calling for new 2020 and ’22 elections as well,” Hobbs worried, referencing her own election that she rigged and stole from Kari Lake last midterm cycle.

It makes sense, as the Democrat leaders were worried about politicizing the issue that affected more Republican voters, they would use Richer, a Republican (in name only), to file a lawsuit.

Attorney General Kris Mayes and Secretary of State Adrian Fontes also worried they would be accused of election fraud in 2024 and "beat up no matter what the hell we do."

Texas Moving to Force Tren de Aragua Gang Out of State, Says Gov. Abbott

Texas Governor Greg Abbott told Breitbart News he is making all available tools available to law enforcement to take action against the violent Venezuelan Tren de Aragua (TdA) gang.

The governor said the gang members will find their operations in Texas will become unprofitable, forcing them to leave the Lone Star State.

It’s a losing money proposition in the state of Texas, and they’re going to realize they got to take their business elsewhere.” Governor Abbott recently designated the Venezuelan prison gang as a Foreign Terrorist Organization, unleashing additional law enforcement tools to be employed against TdA gang members.

And what they’re going to find is, if they’re coming in the state of Texas, they’re losing money.

“If you look at the historical analysis written about them (TdA), they’re in a business operation,” Governor Abbott told Breitbart Texas in an exclusive interview on Friday.

Abbott told Breitbart the designation allows the State to seize properties acquired by the TdA gang for use as human smuggling stash houses and other operational venues.

From FY21-FY24 year-to-date, Border Patrol agents apprehended nearly 499,000 Venezuelan migrants who illegally entered the United States in the five Texas-based Border Patrol Sectors, Texas DPS officials reported.

Sheriff Gives Kamala Harris a Rough Welcome as She Arrives in Embattled Border State Arizona

The sheriff of the Arizona border county Vice President Kamala Harris visited on Friday had a good reason for talking up a message of conciliation before Harris arrived.

After all, Cochise County Sheriff Mark Dannels knows Harris could well be the next president of the United States.

“Number one, she is still our sitting vice president,” Dannels told the Daily Mail.

Reminding Harris of that might make for a rough welcome, no matter how gently it’s put in public.

If Harris doesn’t know about the problems illegal immigration is causing, it’s because she doesn’t want to know about them.

But for the Harris presidential campaign, and any American who follows the news, the “welcome” Dannels extended had to come across as pretty rough — because nothing really hurts like the truth.

Dannels told the U.K.’s Daily Mail that he was glad to see Harris visiting as at least a step in the right direction.

NIH Caught Funneling Millions of Dollars in Public Money to Fund Chinese Dog Torture

“The NIH is currently paying a Chinese lab over $2 million U.S. tax dollars to force-feed and inject puppies and other animals with experimental drugs in completely unnecessary and wasteful tests Among the taxpayer-funded canine cruelty we uncovered is an active $124,200 NIH contract for completely unnecessary experimental drug testing on dogs at a Chinese lab called Pharmaron.

Another bombshell investigation by the crack team of sleuths at White Coat Waste Project has uncovered many millions more dollars in previously unknown funding of Chinese labs by the NIH for the purpose of torturing puppies and other animals with no justifiable public health rationale whatsoever.

In one published experiment, white coats at a Chinese government lab write that, “the dogs were executed.”… Many of the over two dozen Chinese animal labs approved for U.S. taxpayer funding are controlled by or tied to the Chinese Communist Party and military and several conduct dangerous virus experiments that can cause outbreaks.” Warning: Don’t watch the video below if you have a weak stomach for animal abuse.

Stop the madness!” Apparently elected Republicans and independent media are the only ones in government who oppose pointless puppy torture using public American money funded to illicit and under-regulated Chinese labs just like the one in Wuhan that almost certainly leaked COVID-19 to the world and basically destroyed the global economy and the remnants of civil liberties in the West.

In all, this Chinese animal lab is currently receiving over $2 million in tax money for wasteful tests on dogs, primates, and other animals… This is alarming for many reasons, including that the US Food and Drug Administration has clearly stated in direct response to WCW campaigns that, “The FDA does not mandate that human drugs be studied in dogs.” Documents uncovered through WCW’s investigation detail how NIH-funded labs in China are killing beagles as young as one day old and severing beagle puppies’ spinal cords.

Anthony Fauci funded a $3.7 million project to poison puppies with experimental drugs, FOIA documents obtained by White Coat Waste Project (WCW)… and the project is still active.

We applaud Rep. Gosar and his colleagues for their outstanding work to investigate and eliminate tens of millions in taxpayer-funded pet abuse that Fauci signed off on and set into motion.

DOJ Sues Alabama for Voter Roll Purge Program Targeting Noncitizens

The Department of Justice has filed a lawsuit against the State of Alabama, accusing the state of breaking the law with its voter roll purge program that targets individuals who are-or once were-noncitizens.

The DOJ announced the legal action in a Sept. 27 press release, in which the agency contends that Alabama's program, which targets individuals with noncitizen identification numbers, violates the National Voter Registration Act of 1993 by removing potentially eligible voters within the federally mandated 90-day "Quiet Period" before an election.

The NVRA's Quiet Period provision prohibits states from conducting systematic voter roll purges within 90 days of a federal election to prevent errors and ensure eligible voters are not wrongfully removed.

The legal dispute centers around a program initiated by Alabama Secretary of State Wes Allen that aimed to remove noncitizens registered to vote in Alabama from the state's voter rolls.

Allen said that due to a lack of cooperation from the federal government in providing up-to-date lists of noncitizens for the purposes of the voter roll purge, Alabama had to rely on older data that does not reflect whether the individuals flagged for removal have since gained citizenship.

The DOJ is seeking an injunction to halt the voter roll purge and reinstate the rights of eligible voters.

Earlier this month, a coalition of civil rights organizations, including the Alabama Coalition for Immigrant Justice and the League of Women Voters of Alabama, filed a separate lawsuit accusing the state of targeting naturalized citizens with the purge.

House chairman says Democrats see DC election laws as roadmap to get foreigners to vote nationwide

House Administration Committee Chairman Bryan Steil, R-Wis., is warning that Democrats want to use the voting laws in Washington, D.C., as a roadmap to get foreigners to vote in all 50 states.

The District of Columbia has a law that allows individuals 18 and up — foreign or American — who have lawfully resided in the city for over 30 days to vote in local elections, according to Democracy Docket.

"Other municipalities around the country not only allow non-citizens to vote in municipal elections.....[they] are actually using taxpayer dollars to encourage non-citizens to participate in our elections," Steil said on a Just the News, No Noise television special sponsored by the Association of Mature American Citizens (AMAC).

"So they want to use Washington, D.C., as a petri dish and roll this out nationally."

The House passed the SAVE Act in July with five Democrats voting in support of it.

"So someone working at the Russian embassy who's a Russian citizen....if they've resided in Washington, D.C. for 30 days, they can walk down to the polling station this November and vote in the municipal elections," Steil said.

But about 60 to 65% will actually vote early.

Feds are going crazy in New York... the whole Trump-hating state is getting busted for corruption...

Have you seen what's going down in New York City? The feds are on a rampage, rounding up the entire corrupt left-wing political machine.

The biggest catch the feds reeled in was Eric Adams, the left-wing mayor of New York City.

Mayor Eric Adams has been indicted by a grand jury on charges connected to a federal probe, sources told The Post - as the defiant chief executive claimed he was being persecuted by the federal government for speaking out about the city's migrant crisis.

The historic indictment - the first for a sitting New York City mayor - is expected to be unsealed Thursday by US Attorney Damian Williams, according to the sources.

BBC:. New York City Mayor Eric Adams is due to be arraigned in a federal courthouse on Friday to face five counts of criminal offences, including bribery, wire fraud and soliciting illegal foreign campaign donations.

"I ask New Yorkers to wait to hear our defence before making any judgments," Adams said at a press conference on Thursday.

The news conference was regularly interrupted by New York residents who called Adams a "Disgrace" to the city and asked for "Justice".

Maybe Adams really is corrupt, and because he dared to speak up, the feds decided to stop turning a blind eye.

ABC 7 NY:. A former prosecutor and retired judge in Orange County, New York, killed himself Tuesday as the FBI arrived at his home to arrest him.

That's not all; the list of high-ranking officials going down in New York continues: two former chiefs of the New York City Fire Department were just charged with bribery, corruption, and false statements offenses.

One thing is for certain: the residents of New York have had it with their lying, corrupt officials, and they're finally fighting back.

Adam Schiff introduces bill to prevent presidents from dismissing charges against them

Congressman Adam Schiff, D-Calif., introduced a bill on Friday that would serve as a counterpunch to a Supreme Court ruling stipulating that Donald Trump was immune from prosecution for official acts during his presidency.

Schiff dubbed his bill the Investigative Integrity Protection Act, and it requires a three-judge panel to determine whether a president, or anyone acting on his or her behalf, would be able to dismiss criminal charges against him- or herself.

If passed, the legislation would also require a court to determine whether an attorney general was appointed for the purpose of dismissing charges against a president, and the U.S. Department of Justice would be asked to investigate such allegations and report its findings to Congress.

“Several years ago, we witnessed alarming attempts by a sitting president to obstruct justice and evade accountability,” Schiff said in a statement announcing the introduction of the bill, which was co-sponsored by seven Democrats.

The bill appears to be a reaction to protests at the U.S. Capitol on January 6, 2021, and accusations that Trump sought to undermine the results of the 2020 election, which resulted in a legal case against him.

That case that was delayed with a Supreme Court ruling nearly three months ago stipulating that presidents are afforded criminal immunity for their official acts while in office, a decision that was widely derided by Democrats.

Finding The Feds' Missing Children | CHILD TRAFFICKING IN AMERICA

Over the course of our investigation, we discovered the dangerous places where children have been delivered, confronted a CIA contractor who moves these children, heard shocking stories from children who the federal government has lost track of, and exposed a child trafficking network in Florida.

On August 19th, 2024, the Department of Homeland Security announced that they had lost track of over 300,000 children.

Since 2021, an average of 400 unaccompanied children have been smuggled into the United States every day.

They claimed to have a debt over their head that Baltazar and Juana have been using to extort them for years and explained a labor trafficking system that targets unaccompanied alien children.

These children, who cross into the United States without parents, are subsequently detained, processed by the federal government’s unaccompanied children program and eventually released into the country.

Children and minors who enter the United States illegally and without parents are subsequently detained and placed in holding camps while the Office of Refugee Resettlement (ORR for short) works to find the child a permanent home through their Unaccompanied Children or UC program.

Over the past few years, MVM has secured contracts worth hundreds of millions of dollars to escort detained alien children to their sponsors across America.

Georgia Posts Signs at Precincts Warning Non-citizens They May Be Prosecuted if They Vote

The “Secure the Vote” signs in plain black and white have a clear message: “Only United States citizens may vote in Georgia,” the signs state in bold letters, citing the specific statutes.

Election officials are grappling with recent revelations that thousands of non-citizens have tried to get on voter rolls and a few foreigners have even managed to cast ballots.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger has placed new signs — in English and Spanish — at all 2,400 voting precincts across his state warning non-citizens they will be committing a crime if they try to cast a ballot this fall.

Their faith-driven values allow them to help Americans protect their life’s savings without the gimmicks used by most precious metals companies.

Raffensperger was one of the first election officials nationwide to sound the alarm on growing evidence of non-citizens trying to vote, especially as millions of illegal aliens have been allowed to cross the border under the Biden-Harris administration since 2021.

“If you are not a United States citizen, it is a violation of state and federal law to vote,” they added.

"The Biggest Wild Card In The Presidential Election": Just Days Left Until A Crippling Port Strike Paralyzes The East Coast

The looming port strike that could shut down all East and Gulf Coast ports just 36 days before the election.” With just over a week to go until D-Day, authorities are gearing up as a threatened strike by dockworkers at ports along the East Coast and Gulf Coast draws closer.

Late last week, the CEO of Flexport - one of largest US supply-chain logistics operators - warned that "the biggest wild card in the presidential election that nobody’s talking about?

The Port Authority of New York and New Jersey is "coordinating with partners across the supply chain to prepare for any impacts" from a possible work stoppage by workers represented by the International Longshoremen's Association as they negotiate with the United States Maritime Alliance (USMX), a Port Authority spokesperson told CBS MoneyWatch on Friday.

The ILA has threatened to strike if a new labor agreement with East Coast port terminal and shipping companies represented by the USMX is not reached by the time the current contract expires on October 1.

Port trade is around $2.12trn, and 72% would grind to a halt, a one-day strike reportedly taking six days to recover from, a one-week strike in October creating bottlenecks until mid-November, not factoring in Red Sea disruptions caused by the not-terrorist Houthis."

"At the same time, ocean carriers are beginning to put essentially embargoes on export cargo "so that it doesn't come into East and Gulf coast ports and then wind up sitting there," she said.

"There will be a shutdown, assuming that there's is no intervention, at midnight on Monday the 30th," Bethann Rooney, director of the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, the nation's second-busiest port, told a briefing earlier in the week.

Brace for impact: Something big is coming

 For the last couple of months, I’ve been noting various articles in which very rich people are taking some remarkable steps:

Now, clearly wealthy people are always shifting around their financial portfolios. Still, these activities were unusual enough to warrant media attention. This begs the question, what do they know that we don’t know?

Wealthy people (usually) aren’t fools. They watch the economic climate. It’s (usually) how they became wealthy. And the economic climate they’re watching apparently is worrying them.

Now consider these headlines:

And, of course:

Conclusion from all these headlines: Something big is coming, and it’s the little people who will get hurt the most.

How migrant gang Tren de Aragua is luring women into forced prostitution in 8 states — including along NYC’s ‘Market of Sweethearts’

The vicious Venezuelan migrant gang Tren de Aragua is luring desperate women deep into the heart of the US, forcing them to sell their bodies on the streets of American cities to pay off exorbitant smuggling fees, a newly leaked law enforcement document obtained by The Post reveals.

At least eight states have seen an explosion in migrant prostitution since the gang laid down roots in the US, with authorities in Texas, Nevada, Illinois, California, Florida, Georgia, New Jersey and New York now fighting to curtail the sex trade, the memo shows.

The gang has established “sex trafficking rings” as part of the various “migrant pathways” into the US.” The gangbangers sell the lurid scam to migrant women in South and Central America, offering a path into the US — mostly via El Paso, Texas — before shipping them to other states.

In the Big Apple, Tren de Aragua is trying to recruit foot soldiers to force women into sex trafficking — in the hopes that it will become a main source of income for the gang, according to the leaked memo.

Law enforcement sources in New York said the storefront brothels are suspected of having ties to Tren de Aragua — which recruits members and victims out of city migrant shelters.

It has been subject to at least 100 law enforcement investigations across the US.

“For some women, the debt is almost impossible to pay off due to penalty fees added by TdA members as punishment.” Tren de Aragua, which started as a Venezuelan prison gang, has made its presence in the US known in recent months as multi-state migrant crime syndicate engaging in gun smuggling, thefts, shootings and apartment and hotel takeovers.

Hillary Says She Didn’t Go Far Enough In Describing Trump Supporters As “Deplorables”

Two time failed presidential loser Hillary Clinton has said that she wishes she’d been MORE derogatory toward supporters of Donald Trump in 2016.

Clinton has stated that her “basket of deplorables” comment was “too kind.” Writing in the legacy propaganda outlet The Washington Post, Hillary noted “In 2016, I famously described half of Trump’s supporters as ‘the basket of deplorables.’ I was talking about the people who are drawn to his racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia — you name it.

The people for whom his bigotry is a feature, not a bug.” Hillary admitted that the comment was political suicide, but says she still wishes she’d gone further.

“It was an unfortunate choice of words and bad politics, but it also got at an important truth.

Just look at everything that has happened in the years since, from Charlottesville to Jan. 6,” she writes.

 “The masks have come off, and if anything, ‘deplorable’ is too kind a word for the hate and violent extremism we’ve seen from some Trump supporters,” she further snides.

She continues, “Talking about the ‘deplorables’ in 2016, I said, ‘Some of those folks, they are irredeemable.’ Part of me would still say this is objectively true.” As we highlighted, just a day after Donald Trump was almost murdered by a deranged leftist lunatic for the second time in as many months, Clinton got on TV and described the former president as “dangerous.” She then ordered the media not to tone down the rhetoric where Trump is concerned and “stick with” the narrative that he is a ‘dangerous demagogue.’
