Trump ordered $200 worth of burgers from Long Island drive-in for flight home after NYPD officer's wake. This is what happened during Phoenix protest after Trump rally. PHOENIX — When President Donald Trump took the stage Tuesday night at the Phoenix Convention Center, the area around the building was surrounded by people protesting peacefully. Less than three hours later, the smell of tear gas and pepper spray hung heavy over some intersections and city crews began cleaning up thousands of leftover water bottles and police barricades. The nation watched Tuesday as what started as peaceful protests in downtown Phoenix devolved into officers using different chemical means to disperse crowds after several people became violent. By the end of the day, four people had been arrested. By the end of the week, U.S. Rep. Ruben Gallego had called for an investigation into the event and Phoenix Police Chief Jeri Williams said her department would conduct a review.

Steve Bannon, the one-time adviser to Donald Trump, suggested on Saturday that the former president was paid off after a shift in stance on TikTok. TikTok, the immensely popular video-sharing app known for its predominantly young audience, has once again come under scrutiny from U.S. lawmakers. The app is currently owned by Chinese tech company, ByteDance, which has spurred significant suspicion that its abundance of user data is being furnished to the Chinese government. While ByteDance and TikTok have dismissed these accusations, lawmakers have continued to consider their options.
Lawmakers on the House Committee on Energy & Commerce advanced the legislation last week in a 50-0 bipartisan vote to the full U.S. House of Representatives. "If you get rid of TikTok, Facebook and Zuckerschmuck [CEO Mark Zuckerberg] will double their business," the former president wrote. "Simple: Yass Coin," he wrote in a post that included a link to an Axios story about Trump's flip on TikTok. READ: Bizarre 'Trump Force One' Death Threat Delivered Alongside White Powder.
A bizarre terror threat, along with an unidentified white powder, was mailed to the home of Donald Trump, Jr. on Monday. Emergency responders and a hazmat team were seen at Trump Jr.’s home after the former President’s son opened the envelope containing the threatening letter and powder. Test results for the powder came back inconclusive, but authorities do not believe the substance to be life-threatening, according to a spokesperson for Donald Trump, Jr. The letter in the envelope, however, contained a detailed threat against former President Trump and his family.

Apparently, this is a thing; over my life, I've known people who collect everything from beer cans to bottle caps to Lego kits, so sneakers aren't really a surprise.
The boy takes his hobby seriously. He goes to sneaker conventions (yes, really) and is always on the lookout for something new, rare, or unusual; he dickers trades with other collectors and keeps his collection proudly displayed on shelves in his room. This brings us to Donald Trump, his appearance at Philadelphia's "Sneaker Con" on Saturday, and his introduction (to a mixed response) of his newest enterprise - Trump sneakers. Go, capitalism! The sneaks are about what you'd expect; typically Trump, lots of shiny gold.

US Ambassador to France says Trump never called war veterans 'losers' CNN Guest Catches Hosts Selectively Editing Trump Clip to Fit Agenda. CNN: Proudly not letting facts get in the way of anything regarding Donald Trump since 2015. On Tuesday, the former president and current 2024 Republican front-runner appeared on Fox News for a town hall with Sean Hannity in which he made a comment that the establishment media jumped on. (If Joe Biden had made it, of course, every headline would start with “Conservative Media Pounce …”) The remark came as Hannity asked Trump about media claims that he would abuse the power of the presidency if he won a second term.
“They want to call you a dictator. … I want to be very, very clear on this,” the Fox News host said. “You mean like they’re using right now,” Trump interjected. “In the history of our country, what’s happened to us, again, has never happened before, over nonsense, over nothing, made-up charges,” the former president said, referring to the multiple criminal charges he is facing. “Except for day one,” Trump said. “Meaning?” “That’s not retribution,” Hannity said.

Adam Schiff says Trump 'absolutely' would not leave office voluntarily if reelected | Washington Examiner. Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) said former President Donald Trump would "absolutely" refuse to leave office if reelected. In an appearance on CNN, Schiff told host Jen Psaki he agreed with former Wyoming GOP Rep. Liz Cheney's assessment that Trump would refuse to leave office if reelected. "[Cheney is] absolutely right that Donald Trump will never leave office voluntarily.
Richard Vogel/AP "And if anybody has any doubt about that, they should look at what he tried to do in the last presidential election that he lost. "He’s also made it clear that whatever his plan is, to use the military domestically," he added. Schiff also accused Trump of using the political methods of autocrats throughout history and made a direct comparison between Trump and Russian President Vladimir Putin. "There is a real method to Donald Trump’s madness, and it’s not a playbook that he created," Schiff said.
"It’s one that has been used, I think, by autocrats the world over and for a long time," he continued. Journalist Glenn Greenwald Mocks CNN Reporter For 'Exclusive' Report On Liz Cheney's Book: 'Thinks He's Going To Win A Pulitzer' Life Opinion CNN on Tuesday ran an “exclusive” report involving excerpts from Liz Cheney’s new book that they “obtained” on Tuesday, prompting mockery from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Glenn Greenwald. The network announced several excerpts from the book had been perused by a collaboration of reporters, one of which, Jeremy Herb, posted tidbits on the X social media platform. “Liz Cheney takes on McCarthy, Johnson and the GOP in her new book obtained by CNN, condemning her former colleagues and party leaders as ‘enablers and collaborators’ of Trump,” announced Herb. “Lots of new behind-the-scenes details.” Greenwald suggested that Cheney, a frequent guest of CNN since becoming a media darling through her rabid opposition to former President Donald Trump, likely just gave them the book to read in advance.
“Congrats on this unbelievable, groundbreaking scoop and the dangers and risks you had to face to obtain it,” he quipped. Cheney’s Book Has Some Incredible Claims “Mar-a-Lago? “What? Trump Insiders Assembling Unprecedented 'Army' of Pre-Vetted Candidates for Federal Government Positions. Former President Donald Trump is vetting tens of thousands of people for government jobs and is ready with an agenda to go on day one if he is re-elected to a second term in the White House, according to a report. During Trump’s first term, he took flak from some conservatives for being surrounded by in his inner circle people whose views did not appear to align with his agenda. The high turnover of key personnel in Trump’s cabinet often made headlines. A political newcomer when he won the 2016, Trump ran the country for four years and is now mounting his third bid for the presidency as a tested political veteran.
According to Axios, Trump’s closest advisers have already begun vetting people to put in jobs at all levels of government in order to prevent the people who are currently in those roles from undermining him. Citing sources close to Trump, the outlet reported: Potential candidates for tens of thousands of jobs are being vetted, partially through their social media posts.
Joy Behar Issues Utterly Insane Challenge to Trump: 'Go Ahead! Try It!' Nobody will ever accuse Joy Behar and the other co-hosts on “The View” for presenting rational leftist viewpoints (do those even exist?) On the chatty ABC network talk show. But even given that remarkably low bar, this latest clip from the show is something else, reaching depraved new lows of bombastic fear-mongering and hysteria. Take a watch of this clip from the Friday show for yourself below: “So yesterday, Donald Trump sat down for an interview that aired yesterday on Univision, where laid out his agenda if he’s elected president again,” Behar said to begin the segment. “And it seems like the first item on his list — after he gets out of prison — is revenge.” Mind you, Behar is not using that extravagant language to describe the villain from the latest James Bond movie, she’s talking about the heavy favorite to emerge as the 2024 presidential candidate from the Republican Party.
“You say [your enemies have] weaponized the Justice Department, they’ve weaponized the FBI,” Acevedo said. AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s distortion on Dems and the pledge | PBS News Weekend. WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump is accusing the Democrats of taking God out of the Pledge of Allegiance at their national convention. He’s distorting what happened. TRUMP: “The Democrats took the word GOD out of the Pledge of Allegiance at the Democrat National Convention. At first I thought they made a mistake, but it wasn’t. It was done on purpose. Remember Evangelical Christians, and ALL, this is where they are coming from-it’s done. Vote Nov 3!” THE FACTS: That’s a misleading accusation. The first night of the Democratic National Convention, Joe Biden’s grandchildren said the pledge, followed by the convention’s chorus of “The Star Spangled Banner.”
During two caucuses before the evening conventions started, the Muslim Delegates and Al lies Assembly and the LGBTQ Caucus meeting, both Tuesday, left out “under God,” from the pledge. The pledge was written in 1892 and altered in the 1920s. AP FACT CHECK: Trump’s distortion on Dems and the pledge | PBS News Weekend. 30 Things Donald Trump Did as President You Might Have Missed. Faced with years of declining prices and shrunken foreign markets, farmers have been struggling throughout the Trump administration. Trump officials have tried to mend food producers’ finances by doling out billions in assistance in order to keep the industry afloat.
The move: Trump’s USDA steered billions in subsidies to farmers suffering from tariffs imposed by foreign countries as a consequence of the president’s trade wars, an amount that far outpaced the massive auto bailout in 2008. The impact: The vast majority of the aid went to traditional row crop farmers, many of whom were part of Trump’s political base. Government payments are forecast to be at their highest level ever and account for nearly 40 percent net farm income this year. The upshot: Biden faces a difficult choice in deciding whether to continue the payments: The effects of Trump’s trade war will stick around well into 2021, and producers have come to rely on the assistance to stay in business. — Liz Crampton Banking. Crossfire Hurricane (FBI investigation) 2016–2017 US counterintelligence investigation of Donald Trump's associates The FBI's work was taken over on May 17, 2017, by the Special Counsel investigation of 2017–2019, which eventually resulted in the Mueller Report.
Mueller concluded that Russian interference occurred in a "sweeping and systematic fashion" and that there were substantial links between Russians and the Trump campaign, but the evidence available to investigators did not establish that the Trump campaign had "conspired or coordinated" with the Russian government.

Cheney's loss means only 2 made it past their primaries. Here’s where they stand: Wyoming’s At-Large District Rep. Liz Cheney The Cheney dynasty, which played a major role in the Republican Party in Wyoming and Washington for decades, won’t have a spot in elected office next year.
Liz Cheney was defeated Tuesday night by GOP primary challenger Harriet Hageman. The results weren’t surprising, given Cheney trailed in every public poll of the primary against the Trump-endorsed Hageman. But the 55-year-old Cheney may not be done with politics if she loses her seat — she’s already getting questions about a potential 2024 presidential bid. Ohio’s 16th District Rep. Gonzalez announced in September that his congressional career was coming to an end, just two terms after voters first elected the former Ohio State and NFL wide receiver. The added stress and vitriol impeachment added to his personal and political life convinced Gonzalez to bow out of reelection — the first of the four impeachment-backing Republicans to do so. Washington’s 3rd District Rep. John Kelly goes on the record to confirm several disturbing stories about Trump | CNN Politics. John Kelly, the longest-serving White House chief of staff for Donald Trump, offered his harshest criticism yet of the former president in an exclusive statement to CNN.
Kelly set the record straight with on-the-record confirmation of a number of damning stories about statements Trump made behind closed doors attacking US service members and veterans, listing a number of objectionable comments Kelly witnessed Trump make firsthand. “What can I add that has not already been said?” Kelly said, when asked if he wanted to weigh in on his former boss in light of recent comments made by other former Trump officials. “A person that thinks those who defend their country in uniform, or are shot down or seriously wounded in combat, or spend years being tortured as POWs are all ‘suckers’ because ‘there is nothing in it for them.’
A person that did not want to be seen in the presence of military amputees because ‘it doesn’t look good for me.’ “Those are the heroes,” Kelly said. OPINION: Did Trump implement devolution and therefore retain some control? The nuclear age and Cold War against socialism brought about a greater need to protect the continuity of government (COG) from enemies of the Republic, foreign and domestic.
The greatest threat to America for the last hundred years has been the threat of socialism (See "A Trump Return -- Devolution Explained? " LibertyUnderFire). But what if America had to fight socialists on its own soil and they conquered from within by a fraudulent election? In every subdued country, freedom died, as did many of its citizens. The military takes a solemn oath to preserve the Constitution from enemies foreign and domestic.
Freedom from excessive government protected by the Constitution is the first fatality of socialist governments. In this country, the military's first responsibility is to protect the Constitution and the Republic created by it -- not the immediate president or federal government. In the presidential election of 2020, the United States fell to Democratic Socialism. What evidence? In Case You Forgot: The Accomplishments of President Trump.
