Trump Now Has One Less Primary Rival

Miami Mayor Francis Suarez has dropped out of the Republican presidential primary. The mayor suspended his campaign a week after he failed to qualify for the first Republican presidential debate.

“Running for President of the United States has been one of the greatest honors of my life. This country has given so much to my family and me. The prospect of giving back at the highest levels of public service is a motivator if not a calling,” Suarez said in a statement. “Throughout this process, I have met so many freedom-loving Americans who care deeply about our nation, her people, and its future. It was a privilege to come so close to appearing on stage with the other candidates at last week’s first debate.”

Suarez was the only Hispanic candidate on either side in the race for the White House.

Suarez launched his campaign a little over two months ago, attempting to mimic Ronald Reagan’s big tent policy.

Per CNBC:

Suarez, a Cuban American, touted his Hispanic heritage and billed himself as a unifier in a politically polarized country. He also ran on his record courting the tech industry to invest in Miami, and leaned into his pro-cryptocurrency views by accepting campaign donations in bitcoin.

“I will continue to amplify the voices of the Hispanic community – the fastest-growing voting group in our country,” Suarez said in Tuesday’s post.

“I look forward to keeping in touch with the other Republican presidential candidates and doing what I can to make sure our party puts forward a strong nominee who can inspire and unify the country, renew Americans’ trust in our institutions and in each other, and win,” he wrote.

Suarez was the third Republican from Florida to run for the 2024 presidential nomination, sharing that trait with Trump and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis. But while Trump has loosed a relentless barrage of attacks against the governor, the former president rarely, if ever, mentioned the mayor.

Most Americans Think Chris Christie Wrong on Transgender Kids

ANALYSIS – One of the most transcendent political issues today is the Left’s war on reality. Specifically, the radical efforts to push a totally made-up, anti-science, transgender ideology on society, and especially our children. 

And most Republicans agree. Actually, most Americans agree.

Being on the wrong side of this issue should automatically disqualify a GOP candidate for president. And former New Jersey governor Chris Christie is wrong on this issue – big time.

During a segment on CNN’s “State of the Union” Sunday, Christie argued against state bans on sex change treatments for children, reported Fox News. 

When asked about Republican governors banning life-altering, genital mutilating gender reassignment surgeries and experimental ‘puberty blockers’ drugs and hormones for minors in their states, he replied:

I don’t think that the government should ever be stepping in to the place of the parents in helping to move their children through a process where those children are confused or concerned about their gender.

To be fair, Christie also said: “What I would like to make sure each state does is require that parents are involved in these decisions.” And that is critical. But it isn’t enough.

Sadly, it’s Christie who is confused.

If this was 1980, and a Republican candidate said the government shouldn’t get between parents and their children, I would wholeheartedly agree. 

But in 1980 no one would have imagined a society, medical establishment, public school system and government pushing radical transgenderism on our kids, and their parents.

The world is now officially upside down. And even parents are being pressured to permanently damage their kids. The only chance we have to preserve basic human values is by Republican red states defending them wholeheartedly. 

And when possible, defending them at the federal level.

Former President Donald Trump has been vocal about his stance: “These people are sick, they’re deraigned,” Trump recently said in North Carolina, speaking of those who support men competing in women’s sports. 

The former president also said he would “sign a law prohibiting child sexual mutilation in all 50 states” if elected in 2024.

Unfortunately for Christie, and fortunately for the rest of us, Fox News reports that a strong majority of Americans disagree with him. 

A Washington Post-KFF poll “found that 68% of Americans oppose access to puberty-blocking medication for kids ages 10 to 14 and 58% oppose access to hormonal treatments for kids ages 15 to 17.”

But Christie isn’t just wrong on this extreme issue. He has been wrong on transgender issues for many years.

As Fox News reported:

While serving as governor of New Jersey in 2017, Christie passed laws allowing children to use school bathrooms and locker rooms based on their gender identity rather than sex assigned at birth.

Christie’s signature also removed restrictions on biological men competing in women’s sports, an issue that the WaPo poll found over 60% of Americans think should be banned.

Christie also signed another law that year prohibiting insurance companies from denying services to anyone based on their ‘gender identity.’

In the increasingly crowded field of GOP presidential hopefuls, former President Trump, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, and former Ambassador Nikki Haley, are all on the right side. They all support restricting children under 18 years of age from receiving gender reassignment (or genital mutilation) procedures.

All three also support banning biological men from competing in women’s sports. And they are all correct.

But, as far as I’m concerned Christie just disqualified himself from being a GOP candidate for president.

Verdict Reached In Hunter Biden Gun Trial

    Minutes ago, Hunter Biden arrived at the Wilmington, Delaware, courthouse following confirmation that a verdict has been reached in his gun trial.

    Biden has been found guilty on all three felony charges following three hours of jury deliberation.

    “A federal jury has convicted Hunter Biden on all three federal felony gun charges he faced, concluding that he violated laws meant to prevent drug addicts from owning firearms,” CNN reported.

    The charges against Biden were as follows:

    • Count One: False Statement Material to Firearms Sale (max prison sentence: 10 years)
    • Count Two: False Statement in Firearms Transaction Record (max prison sentence: 5 years)
    • Count Three: Possession of a Firearm by a Drug User or Drug Addict (max prison sentence 10 years)

    Besides 25 years behind bars, the president’s son also faces up to $750,000 in fines.

    Legal experts like Oleg Nekritin believe it’s unlikely that Biden will face prison time: “Conviction for this type of crime generally does not result in a prison sentence. Mr. Biden’s calculated risk to try this case is a good one, the court’s venue is in Delaware, where his family is still popular, and the alleged crime does not involve a victim.”

    President Joe Biden has previously vowed not to pardon his son.

    Trump Targets Former Chief Of Staff After Report Undermines 2020 Election Claims

      1

      The walls are closing in on Donald Trump…

      The former President who is facing a litany of federal charges stemming from his alleged interference in the 2020 election pushed back on Tuesday’s ABC News report that former Trump Chief of Staff Mark Meadows took an immunity deal to testify to a grand jury.

      Jonathan Karl reported that Meadows spoke with special counsel Jack Smith’s team at least three times this year:

      The sources said Meadows informed Smith’s team that he repeatedly told Trump in the weeks after the 2020 presidential election that the allegations of significant voting fraud coming to them were baseless, a striking break from Trump’s prolific rhetoric regarding the election.

      According to the sources, Meadows also told the federal investigators Trump was being “dishonest” with the public when he first claimed to have won the election only hours after polls closed on Nov. 3, 2020, before final results were in.

      “Obviously, we didn’t win,” a source quoted Meadows as telling Smith’s team in hindsight per Karl’s report, which strikes at the heart of both the federal and Fulton County case against Trump for criminally conspiring to defraud the American people that a free and fair election was “rigged.”

      Trump took to Truth Social and suggested that while he didn’t think Meadows was the sort to lie to prosecutors to get “IMMUNITY.”  He then passively aggressively suggested Meadows was among  “weaklings and cowards” that make a deal and are “so bad for the future our Failing Nation.”

      “I don’t think that Mark Meadows is one of them, but who really knows? ” Trump wrote:

      I don’t think Mark Meadows would lie about the Rigged and Stollen 2020 Presidential Election merely for getting IMMUNITY against Prosecution (PERSECUTION!) by Deranged Prosecutor, Jack Smith. BUT, when you really think about it, after being hounded like a dog for three years, told you’ll be going to jail for the rest of your life, your money and your family will be forever gone, and we’re not at all interested in exposing those that did the RIGGING — If you say BAD THINGS about that terrible “MONSTER,” DONALD J. TRUMP, we won’t put you in prison, you can keep your family and your wealth, and, perhaps, if you can make up some really horrible “STUFF” a out him, we may very well erect a statue of you in the middle of our decaying and now very violent Capital, Washington, D.C. Some people would make that deal, but they are weaklings and cowards, and so bad for the future our Failing Nation. I don’t think that Mark Meadows is one of them, but who really knows? MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

      Trump then added:

      Mark Meadows NEVER told me that allegations of significant fraud (about the RIGGED Election!) were baseless. He certainly didn’t say that in his book!

      Politico’s Kyle Cheney also noted that in Trump’s attack, the former President may have also violated the gag order imposed in the case.

      Rosie O’Donnell Blames Trump For Missing Daughter’s Graduation

        Liberal expatriate Rosie O’Donnell is putting the blame on Trump once again…

        The Hollywood liberal says she didn’t attend her daughter’s college graduation because of security concerns related to her long-standing feud with President Trump.

        “My daughter graduated college, and I didn’t go back because the security people said to me they didn’t think it was wise,” the comedian said in an interview on the “No Filter” podcast released this week.

        “Because I think Trump will use me to rile his base,” O’Donnell, 63, continued.

        “I’m his nemesis in his mind and to them … to like a third of the country,” the former “The View” co-host and longtime critic of Trump said.

        The public battle between O’Donnell and Trump began nearly two decades ago after the comic referred to the then-New York real estate developer as a “snake oil salesman.” Trump over the years has ripped O’Donnell, calling her “unattractive,” “mentally sick” and a “loser,” while she’s dubbed him a “criminal con man” and “cheater.”

        O’Donnell moved from the U.S. to Ireland just days ahead of Trump’s inauguration in January. 

        “It was not a political statement as much as it was self-preservation,” she said of her exit from the country.

        In recent weeks, Trump has repeatedly threatened to strip O’Donnell of her American citizenship, calling her a “threat to humanity.”

        O’Donnell, speaking with podcast host Kate Langbroek, described her move to Ireland as “quite a success.”

        “People say to me, ‘Why do you still talk about [Trump] and the country if you left?’ Well, I never gave up my citizenship, nor would I, although I’m getting my dual citizenship to become an Irish citizen as well, because my grandparents are from Ireland,” the “A League of Their Own” actor said.

        “I care about my country. I love my country. I am very patriotic, and I knew that I would not be able to deal with what was about to happen, and it certainly has,” O’Donnell said.

        Liberal Congresswoman’s Bodyguard Offers Bizarre Excuse Amidst Claims of Anti-Semitism

          Liberal Congresswoman Cori Bush (D-MO) isn’t used to being in the spotlight but right now all eyes are on a member of her security team.

          Bush’s bodyguard, Nathaniel Davis has invited backlash over his claims to be a master of psychic self-defense born 109 trillion years ago along with his anti-semitic comments. The Washington Free Beacon confirmed that Davis is in fact a St. Louis, Missouri, spiritual guru known as Aha Sen Piankhy who teaches classes on how to read minds, summon mythical beings, and maintain urban gardens “to avoid having to buy food from the Jews.”

          Davis initially gained notoriety over his claim to host a number of supernatural abilities, including the ability to summon hurricanes, levitate, and retrieve winning lottery numbers “from the spirit realm.”

          Nathaniel Davis demanded The Free Beacon retract a previous article in which the outlet detailed Davis’s connections with Bush and history of advancing anti-Semitic conspiracy theories.

          Per the original report from The Free Beacon:

          When Davis, who did not return requests for comment, is not protecting the congresswoman, he spends his time teaching St. Louis’s black community to grow their own food—so they can liberate themselves from a genocidal Jewish cabal that runs the world.

          “I’m going come teach the people how to survive. It’s what I came to this planet for in this lifetime,” Davis said in a July 17, 2020, Facebook live stream. “I’m 109 trillion years old in this galaxy, the Milky Way galaxy.”

          Davis has advanced a number of anti-Semitic conspiracy theories, including the belief that the Rothschild family “runs the Western Hemisphere” and unleashed the COVID-19 pandemic to murder 99 percent of the human population. Davis is also a proponent of QAnon, according to a Facebook post he shared in December 2018.

          “You got the global elite looking to kill every last one of us. They want to wipe out half the population of the planet,” Davis said in a July 17, 2020, Facebook live stream.

          However, despite Davis’s history of anti-Semitic comments, the bodyguard said it’s impossible for him to be anti-Semitic because he himself is a member of the Tribe of Issachar, one of the lost tribes of Israel.

          “That makes me Hebrew. How can I be anti-Semitic?” Davis asked the Free Beacon, adding “You’re literally dealing with the priesthood, literally.”

          “If you could retract the whole anti-Semite, because I’m not, man. I’m not,” Davis said. “I got bar mitzvah’ed in this city. There’s no way I can be anti-Semite. No way. You didn’t complete your homework.”

          The bodyguard also asserted he never made any claims about the Rothschild family or promoted any anti-semitic conspiracies.

          “I didn’t make any type of statement dogging anybody of any nationality or background,” Davis told the Free Beacon. “Didn’t do that. That’s not how I move.”

          It’s not exactly clear how David came to work for the Congresswoman. However, a deep dive by The Free Beacon revealed the congresswoman’s personal Facebook page show that she is friends with “Aha Davis Zadok El,” one of Davis’s Facebook accounts. There, he claims to be a member of the “Priesthood of the Sun Moon Sect.” Davis’s various FacebookTwitter, and Instagram accounts are riddled with references to the “Priesthood of the Sun Moon Sect.”

          Davis has earned over $137,000 providing “security services” for Bush since 2020, according to FEC filings, the latest of which showed disbursements of $5,000 in Dec. 2022. 

          Citing a “non-disclosure agreement,” Davis refused to comment on the “security services” he has provided to Bush.

          “I can’t talk to you about that,” Davis said when pressed for details about his non-disclosure agreement.

          The Free Beacon reported that Davis changed his story minutes later and denied ever mentioning a non-disclosure agreement, claiming it would be false to report that he did.

          Hillary Clinton Peddles Claim MAGA Supporters Have a Plan to ‘Literally Steal the Next Presidential Election’

            Hillary Clinton is already spreading fake news.

            The former Democrat 2016 presidential nominee and Trump rival is wasting no time before starting to spread more insidious misinformation weeks before the midterms conclude and Americans officially begin looking toward the next presidential election. Clinton claims “right wing extremists” already have a plan in place to “literally steal” an election for which there are no official candidates.

            In a message made for anti-Trump group, Indivisible, Clinton called out the “right wing” threats.

            According to their website, the organization is a “grassroots movement of thousands of local Indivisible groups with a mission to elect progressive leaders, rebuild our democracy, and defeat the Trump agenda.”

            “I know we’re all focused on the 2022 midterm elections, and they are incredibly important, but we also have to look ahead because, you know what, our opponents certainly are. Right-wing extremists already have a plan to literally steal the next presidential election, and they’re not making a secret of it,” Clinton said in the video according to Mediaite.

            At issue for the former presidential candidate is the “right-wing controlled Supreme Court,” which she argued could before 2024 give more power to state legislatures to “overturn presidential elections.” Others have sounded the alarm over state legislatures gaining more control in how to conduct elections in 2024. Clinton herself is no stranger to being openly frustrated at election results themselves, referring to her opponent Trump, who defeated her in 2016, in the past as an “illegitimate president.”

            The “very real threat to democracy” presented by Republicans, Clinton said at one point, is keeping her “up at night.”

            “We’re all focused on winning the midterms and defending our congressional majorities. That’s critical. But we also must take the fight to MAGA Republicans at the state level,” the group claims.

            Some political analysts have predicted Clinton is slowly but surely re-entering the spotlight before ultimately announcing a 2024 presidential run.

            In September, Clinton was asked during a CBS interview if she plans to run for president again which she answered “no” but noted she was committed to helping defeat Trump, who has strongly hinted at a 2024 campaign.

            “No, no, but I’m going to do everything I can to make sure that we have a president who respects our democracy and the rule of law and upholds our institutions,” Clinton said at the time.

            “He should be soundly defeated,” Clinton continued “It should start in the Republican Party. Grow a backbone. Stand up to this guy.”

            Fox News Weatherman Attacked on NYC Subway

              Fox News meteorologist Adam Klotz was attacked by a group of teens in the early hours of Sunday while riding the New York subway.

              Klotz was on his way home after watching the Giants-Eagles NFL playoff game at a Manhattan bar shortly before he noticed a group of teens harassing an “older gentleman,” and had set his hair on fire with what was presumably a marijuana joint. 

              In an Instagram video, Klotz said he intervened to protect the older man and that’s when the group turned their focus on him and began the brutal attack before fleeing at the 18th Street station in the Chelsea neighborhood.

              “I was like, ‘Yo, guys, cut that out.’ And they decided, ‘All right, if he’s not going to get it, you’re going to get it.’ And, boy, did they give it to me,” Klotz said.

              During an interview with “Fox & Friends” Klotz noted that he attempted to separate himself from the situation but the group followed him to another train car.

              “I get off that train after taking a punch,” Klotz said. “The whole group, the doors open again at another stop, the whole group just comes and bum rushes me, and suddenly I’m like, on the ground. I’m getting kicked in the side. I’m getting wailed on.

              “They were trying to knock me out, and then once you’re unconscious, and you’re getting punched like there’s no defense, so I was just doing my absolute best to cover my head,” he continued. 

              “So I kind of get knocked out, and now my side is black and blue. My knee, I can hardly bend because I was getting kicked and punched.”

              “What I want is some sort of change,” Klotz said. “I don’t want this to happen to somebody else, and I don’t think necessarily just these kids getting in trouble, like, where’s the structural things? Like, put some cops down there.” 

              Klotz was treated at a local hospital for his injuries and the three members of the group were eventually apprehended by the cops. However, the group was released into parental custody and no charges were pressed due to their ages.

              Despite the shocking attack, Klotz has remained in good spirits and is expected to make a full recovery.

              Trump Attorney Admits Unfortunate Truth Of Trump Hush Money Trial

                4
                Gage Skidmore from Surprise, AZ, United States of America,

                It’s not looking good…

                In an interview with Newsmax on Wednesday night, Alina Habba sounded less than optimistic about her client Donald Trump’s chances of prevailing in his New York criminal case.

                Trump is being charged with 34 counts of falsifying business records to make alleged hush money payments to porn actress Stormy Daniels.

                Appearing on Wednesday’s Greg Kelly Reports, Habba was asked about the proceedings.

                “How are you and what do you think tonight about everything?” Greg Kelly asked his guest.

                Habba struck a tone of resignation:

                …I don’t have hopes really that high at this moment that the New York courts will do the right thing, that the jury will do the right thing. We’re in a blue state, as you know, Greg. And I think everything’s by design. We’re in a case that was eight years old, over the statute of limitations, was denied by [former Manhattan District Attorney] Cy Vance, then brought only after President Trump decided he was going to run for office.

                “It’s very troubling,” she added. “We’re in the fight of our lives at this moment.”

                Nikki Haley Announces Plans To Vote For Trump

                1

                Despite initially stating that Donald Trump must decide if he wants to win her support, along with the primary voters who backed her campaign, Nikki Haley has announced who she’ll be supporting in the 2024 presidential election.

                It’s none other than Donald Trump.

                The former South Carolina governor and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations announced her support for Trump’s 2024 bid on Wednesday afternoon during an appearance at the Hudson Institute in Washington, D.C.

                As The Hill reports:

                “As a voter, I put my priorities on a president who’s going to have the backs of our allies and hold our enemies to account, who would secure the border, no more excuses. A president who would support capitalism and freedom, a president who understands we need less debt not more debt,” Haley said at the Hudson Institute, a conservative think tank. 

                “Trump has not been perfect on these policies. I’ve made that clear, many, many times. But Biden has been a catastrophe. So, I will be voting for Trump,” Haley said.

                Haley joined the Hudson Institute as its Walter P. Stern chair in April. Her remarks at the institute come as she continues to be a significant presence in Republican presidential primary results, despite having suspended her campaign in March.

                “Having said that, I stand by what I said in my suspension speech. Trump would be smart to reach out to the millions of people who voted for me and continue to support me, and not assume that they’re just going to be with him.”
