Trump Calls Ukraine’s Zelenskyy A ‘Dictator Without Elections’

    President Donald Trump blasted Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy as a “dictator without elections” on Wednesday.

    The blistering comments come after the U.S. left Ukraine out of initial peace talks with Russia this week.ย 

    “A Dictator without Elections, Zelenskyy better move fast or he is not going to have a Country left,” Trump wrote on TRUTH Social. “In the meantime, we are successfully negotiating an end to the War with Russia, something all admit only โ€˜TRUMP,โ€™ and the Trump Administration, can do. Biden never tried, Europe has failed to bring Peace, and Zelenskyy probably wants to keep the โ€˜gravy trainโ€™ going.”  

    Trump added, “I love Ukraine, but Zelenskyy has done a terrible job, his Country is shattered, and MILLIONS have unnecessarily died โ€“ And so it continuesโ€ฆ..”

    Describing Zelenskyy as a “modestly successful comedian,” Trump said the Ukrainian leader “managed to talk the United States of America into spending $350 Billion Dollars, to go into a War that couldnโ€™t be won, that never had to start, but a War that he, without the U.S. and โ€˜TRUMP,โ€™ will never be able to settle.” Trump decried that the United States “has spent $200 Billion Dollars more than Europe, and Europeโ€™s money is guaranteed, while the United States will get nothing back.” 

    “Why didnโ€™t Sleepy Joe Biden demand Equalization, in that this War is far more important to Europe than it is to us โ€” We have a big, beautiful Ocean as separation,” Trump posed of former President Joe Biden. “On top of this, Zelenskyy admits that half of the money we sent him is โ€˜MISSING.โ€™ He refuses to have Elections, is very low in Ukrainian Polls, and the only thing he was good at was playing Biden โ€˜like a fiddle.โ€™” 

    Zelenskyy criticized Trump earlier Wednesday in comments to reporters in Kyiv after canceling a trip to Saudi Arabia, where Secretary of State Marco Rubio, National Security Adviser Mike Waltz and Special Envoy Ambassador Steve Witkoff held talks with Russian counterparts earlier this week centered on negotiating an end to the three-year conflict with Ukraine. 

    “Unfortunately, President Trump โ€“ I have great respect for him as a leader of a nation that we have great respect for, the American people who always support us โ€“ unfortunately lives in this disinformation space,” Zelensky said.

    Nearly one year past the expiration of Zelenskyy’s first five-year term, the U.S. and Russia are in agreement that Ukrainians must go to the polls and decide whether to keep their head of state. 

    Russia has insisted it will not sign a peace agreement until Ukraine agrees to hold elections, and the U.S. is now “floating” the idea of a three-stage plan: ceasefire, then Ukrainian elections, then inking of a peace deal.

    Zelenskyyโ€™s term in office was supposed to end last May, with elections originally slated for April 2024. But the president’s aides have said elections will not be held until six months after the end of martial law. The Ukrainian constitution prohibits holding elections under martial law. 

    Joe Rogan Makes Hilarious Offer Amid MSNBC Turmoil

    3

    A much-needed ratings boost…

    The worldโ€™s most popular podcast host Joe Rogan hinted at joining forces with the world’s richest man to reinvent flailing MSNBC if it’s sold off by its parent company.

    X owner Elon Musk joked this week he may buy the liberal news network and “The Joe Rogan Experience” host Joe Rogan offered to replace MSNBC anchor Rachel Maddow. He even offered to adopt her signature style.

    “If you buy MSNBC I would like Rachel Maddowโ€™s job. I will wear the same outfit and glasses, and I will tell the same lies,” Rogan wrote on Friday in response to a post by Musk.

    On Wednesday, parent company Comcast officially announced it would spin off several NBCUniversal cable networks, including MSNBC, in a move that will dramatically shake up the landscape of legacy media as the liberal cable outlet will no longer be affiliated with NBC News.

    The billionaire captioned the post with his own statement, writing, “The most entertaining outcome, especially if ironic, is most likely,” having fun with the idea of buying the liberal outlet and converting it to a conservative news outlet.

    Rogan commented on Muskโ€™s new post with his offer to replace Maddow on the new MSNBC. The X owner replied, “Deal.”

    The MSNBC host, whose show “The Rachel Maddow Show” airs on the network on Mondays, recently signed a new contract to stay with the company for the foreseeable future. This comes as the network’s ratings have plummeted โ€“ including ratings for her show โ€“ especially since President-elect Donald Trump won earlier this month. (RELATED:

    Musk teased the idea even more on Sunday morning, posting a meme depicting him trying to fight the temptation of buying MSNBC. 

    Trump, Putin Call Expected ‘Soon’

      President-elect Trump is planning a phone call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin in the near future according to incoming national security adviser, Rep.ย Mike Waltzย (R-Fla.)

      In an interview on ABC Newsโ€™s โ€œThis Week,โ€ Waltz said โ€œthe preparations are underwayโ€ for a meeting between Trump and Putin.

      โ€œI do expect a call โ€ฆ at least in the coming days and weeks,โ€ Waltz said. โ€œSo, that would be a step, and weโ€™ll take it from there.โ€

      Trump said Thursday heโ€™s working to set up a meeting with Putin, telling reporters at his Mar-a-Lago estate in Palm Beach, Fla., that Putin โ€œwants to meet. And weโ€™re setting that up.โ€

      Trump noted at the time heโ€™s had โ€œa lot of communicationโ€ with Chinese President Xi Jinping and has spoken with numerous other world leaders. But he has yet to speak with Putin.

      โ€œBut President Putin wants to meet. Heโ€™s said that even publicly, and we have to get that war over with. Thatโ€™s a bloody mess,โ€ Trump said of the war in Ukraine.

      Waltz said it was not yet clear whether the first call between the world leaders would include Zelensky.

      โ€œWell, we havenโ€™t set the exact framework for it yet. Weโ€™re working on that,โ€ Waltz said, when asked about Zelensky.

      โ€œFrom President Trumpโ€™s perspective, you canโ€™t enter a deal if you donโ€™t have some type of relationship and dialog with the other side. And we will absolutely establish that in the coming months,โ€ Waltz said.

      Waltz also said he would โ€œlike to see a ceasefire any minute, any dayโ€ in the Russian-Ukraine war, which he said would be an โ€œincredibly positive first step โ€ฆ that would then allow us to enter into the framework of some type of negotiated solution here.โ€

      โ€œEverybody knows that this has to end somehow diplomatically,โ€ Waltz said. โ€œI just donโ€™t think itโ€™s realistic to say weโ€™re going to expel every Russian from every inch of Ukrainian soil, even Crimea. President Trump has acknowledged that reality, and I think itโ€™s been a huge step forward that the entire world is acknowledging that reality.โ€

      Trump Doubles Down On Call for Liz Cheney to Be Jailed

        Is he right?

        Former President Donald Trump wants ex-Wyoming Congresswoman Liz Cheney to be thrown behind bars.

        On Sunday morning, Trump wrote that Cheneyย โ€œshould go to Jail along with the rest of the Unselect Committee!โ€

        Trump also shared an article about the committee and accused them of having โ€œwithheld crucial evidenceโ€ by not making testimony public from a Secret Service driver. The driver, who has not been named, disputed the account of former White House stafferย Cassidy Hutchinsonย โ€” who claimed that on his way back to the White House on Jan. 6, Trump tried to grab the steering wheel of the limo in an effort to redirect it to the Capitol.

        The Jan. 6 committee has faced intense scrutiny over its decision to withhold some testimony from the public. According to Mediaite, Committee members noted that they had a deal with the Secret Service in which they agreed to avoid disclosing โ€œprivacy information, for-official-use-only information, intelligence and law enforcement sensitive records and raw intelligence informationโ€ from 12 interviews they conducted.

        Cheney didn’t waste much time before responding to Trump’s comments.

        โ€œHi Donald: you know these are lies,โ€ Trumpย said. โ€œYou have had all the grand jury & J6 transcripts for many months. Youโ€™re trying to halt your 1/6 trial because your VP, WH counsel, WH aides, campaign & DOJ officials etc will testify against you. Youโ€™re afraid of the truth and you should be.โ€

        After that, Trump reiterated his call.

        โ€œSHE SHOULD BE PROSECUTED FOR WHAT SHE HAS DONE TO OUR COUNTRY!โ€ Trump wrote. โ€œSHE ILLEGALLY DESTROYED THE EVIDENCE. UNREAL!!!โ€

        Supreme Court Justices Targets of Assassination by Left-wing Abortion Extremists: Alito

          3

          ANALYSIS โ€“ย Following the first-ever leak of a pendingย Supreme Courtย decision, left-wingย abortionย extremists have threatened the lives of the conservative justices.

          First by calling for violence and posting their personal details online, then by having daily aggressive protests at their homes.

          The threats even extended to their families and children.

          There was also a specific assassination attempt against Justiceย Brett Kavanaughย in June when an armed man,ย Nicholas John Roske, 26,ย traveled across the country to Justice Kavanaughโ€™s home to kill him.

          In that case, the U.S. Marshalsย discoveredย Roske had a โ€œblack tactical chest rig and tactical knife,โ€ a pistol with two magazines and ammunition, pepper spray, zip ties, a hammer, a screwdriver, a nail punch, a crowbar, a pistol light and duct tape, in addition to other items, according to the affidavit.ย 

          The affidavit noted that his plan was to break into the house, kill the justice and then kill himself.

          And the threats to the court continue.

          These events are unprecedented in the history of the Supreme Court and have been dutifully ignored by the establishment media,ย Joe Bidenย and the Democrats.

          In aย letterย to Bidenโ€™s Attorney Generalย Merrick Garland, attorneys general from 19 states write, โ€œcharities that support pregnant mothers in need have been firebombed and pro-life organizations have been attacked almost daily and terrorized.โ€

          They then urge him to investigate the barrage of threats and attacks made against pro-life judges and pro-life organizations.

          Instead, the left focus endlessly on how conservatives are โ€˜extremistsโ€™ and a danger to democracy.

          They also blather endlessly about MAGA โ€˜election deniersโ€™ while ignoring all those on the left who now deny the legitimacy of the Supreme Court.

          So, as we near the critical midterm election, it is time to remind voters of who the dangerous violent extremists really are.

          As Newsmax reported:

          Supreme Court Justiceย Samuel Alitoย said this week that the leaking of a draft decision to overturnย Roe v. Wadeย put the lives of him and his fellow justices at risk.

          โ€œIt was a grave betrayal of trust by somebody,โ€ Alito said at a public interview with the Heritage Foundation on Tuesday, according toย The New York Times. โ€œIt was a shock, because nothing like that had happened in the past. It certainly changed the atmosphere at the court for the remainder of last term.โ€

          He went on to say, โ€œThe leak also made those of us who were thought to be in the majority in support of overruling Roe and Casey targets for assassination because it gave people a rational reason to think they could prevent that from happening by killing one of us.โ€

          Alito also hit out at those who question the courtโ€™s legitimacy following the decision to overturn Roe v. Wade.

          โ€œEverybody in this country is free to disagree with our decisions,โ€ he said. โ€œEverybody is free to criticize our reasoning, and in strong terms. And that certainly is done in the media, in writings of law professors and on social media.โ€

          โ€œBut to say the court is exhibiting lack of integrity is something quite different,โ€ he added. โ€œThat goes to character.โ€

          Justice Alito authored the draft and final opinion that reversed the poorly reasoned Roe v. Wade decision that created a non-existing constitutional right to abortion.

          He is part of the 6-3 conservative majority on the Supreme Court.

          So, whenever the left screams about โ€˜violentย right-wing extremists,โ€™ or โ€˜election deniersโ€™ being a threat to democracy, remind them of the left-wing violence against pro-life centers and churches, the assassination attempt against a conservative Supreme Court Justice and all thoseย who now deny the legitimacy of our nationโ€™s highest court.ย

          Navy Seal Who Killed Bin Laden Blasts U.S. Navy’s Woke Recruitment Tactic

          President Donald J. Trump is presented with a 10th Combat Aviation Brigade challenge coin following an air assault and gun rain demonstration at Fort Drum, New York, on August 13. The demonstration was part of President Trump's visit to the 10th Mountain Division (LI) to sign the National Defense Authorization Act of 2019, which increases the Army's authorized active-duty end strength by 4,000 enabling us to field critical capabilities in support of the National Defense Strategy. (U.S. Army photo by Sgt. Thomas Scaggs) 180813-A-TZ475-010

          Things have gone too far.

          After the U.S. Navyย confirmed it hired an active-duty drag queen to recruit candidates the Navy Seal who was a part of the team that killed Osama bin Laden couldn’t help but share his reaction to the news.

          โ€œAlright. The U.S. Navy is now using an enlisted sailor Drag Queen as a recruiter. Iโ€™m done,โ€ Robert Oโ€™Neill, who said that he fired the shot that killed bin Laden in 2011, tweeted. โ€œChina is going to destroy us. YOU GOT THIS NAVY. I canโ€™t believe I fought for this bulls***.โ€

          โ€œYouโ€™re doing it wrong, @USNavy,โ€ he added. โ€œTalk to someone [whoโ€™s] actually done something! Not yeomen with t*** and a D***!โ€

          Yeoman 2nd Class Joshua Kelley, who performs as a drag queen named โ€œHarpy Daniels,โ€ revealed in a November TikTok video that he would serve as the Navyโ€™s first โ€œdigital ambassador.โ€ย 

          โ€œFrom joining to 2016 and being able to share my drag experience on my off time with my fellow sailors has been a blessing,โ€ Kelley wrote on Instagram in November when he announced his Digital Ambassador appointment.

          โ€œThis experience has brought me so much strength, courage and ambition to continue being an advocate and representation of queer sailors!โ€ he told his more than 8,000 followers. โ€œThank you to the Navy for giving me this opportunity! I donโ€™t speak for the Navy but simply sharing my experience in the Navy! Hooyah, and letโ€™s go Slay!โ€

          In his Instagram video, Kelley said he is โ€œbeing the representation of people who were oppressed for years in the service.โ€

          According toย The Military Times, the U.S. Army missed its fiscal 2022 goal by 15,000 soldiers while the other branches of the U.S. military, with the exception of the Space Force, โ€œbarely made quota or had to pull extensively from their pools of delayed-entry applicants.โ€

          Former Congressman Madison Cawthorn Arrested

          0

          Former Congressman Madison Cawthorn was briefly arrested this week in Cape Coral, Florida โ€” yet the setback may not slow what many believe is a mounting effort to reenter national politics.

          Authorities took Cawthorn into custody on a warrant stemming from an August 19 citation for driving without a valid license in Naples. He was released shortly thereafter on a $2,000 bond and is expected to appear in court to resolve the matter. Supporters have dismissed the incident as a minor technicality, unlikely to derail his ambitions.


          From Conservative Trailblazer to Political Lightning Rod

          Cawthorn burst onto the national stage in 2020 as one of the youngest Republicans ever elected to Congress, winning his North Carolina seat at just 25 years old. He quickly became a symbol of youthful conservative energy and unapologetic defiance of the Washington establishment.

          But his meteoric rise ran into turbulence during his lone term. In early 2022, he alleged that some D.C. elites had invited him to a cocaine-fueled โ€œorgy,โ€ a claim that drew sharp criticism from GOP leadership. Weeks later, police body camera footage showed him being pulled over while driving a car he mistakenly believed he owned, and he was also cited for bringing a firearm through airport security โ€” his second such incident in less than a year.

          Republican leadership, once supportive, gradually distanced themselves. The controversies overshadowed his legislative work and contributed to his loss in the 2022 Republican primary.


          Florida Could Offer a Second Act

          Now, Cawthorn may be plotting a political revival โ€” this time from Floridaโ€™s 19th Congressional District, where Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) is expected to step down to run for governor. Axios recently reported that Cawthorn has been exploring a run to fill the soon-to-be-open seat, potentially offering him a clean slate and new political base in one of the countryโ€™s most Republican-leaning regions.

          If he enters the race, Cawthorn could return to Washington older, more seasoned, and still armed with the anti-establishment instincts that made him a grassroots favorite. For many conservatives, his resilience โ€” and willingness to challenge entrenched power โ€” could be the very qualities the GOP needs in its next generation of leadership. for the second time in nine months.

          Trump Reveals Details Of When Barron Learned Of Assassination Attempt

            The details are coming out…

            Formerย President Trumpย said his youngest son, Barron, was playing tennis when he learned in July that his father had been shot at a rally in Pennsylvania.

            Trump recounted the experience in a sit-down interview with Fox Newsโ€™s โ€œThe Ingraham Angleโ€ this weekend, when he returned to the site of the assassination attempt this summer. The interview will air in full Monday evening and a preview was released earlier in the day.

            โ€œBarron was playing tennis with his friends, and somebody walked over and โ€“ ran over โ€“ and said, โ€˜Your fatherโ€™s been shot. Heโ€™s been shot,โ€™โ€ Trump said in the interview preview.

            โ€œBarron, and Barron really likes his father a lot,โ€ Trump continued.

            โ€œAnd he came in: โ€˜Mom, Mom, Mom, what happened?โ€™ So, and then they saw me get up, and then they saw the fist pump,โ€ Trump said, referring to the viral image taken just moments after he was shot of him raising his fist in the air.

            Trump returned to Butler, Pa. this weekend for the first time since the assassination attempt nearly three months ago.

            Trump, on Saturday, was joined at his return rally by several high-profile guests, including his running mate, Sen. JD Vance (R-Ohio), Republican National Committee Co-Chair Lara Trump and tech billionaire Elon Musk.

            Hillary Clinton Endorses Democrat Primary Opponent In Rare Rebuke

              A shocking betrayal…

              Former failed Democrat presidential candidate Hillary Clinton made the rare move of endorsing the primary opponent of a sitting House Democrat.

              The former secretary of state who remains a vocal influence over the Party opted to endorse George Latimer instead of Rep. Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) on Wednesday.

              Rep. Jamaal Bowman, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons

              โ€œWith Trump on the ballot, we need strong, principled Democrats in Congress more than ever,โ€ wrote Clinton on X, adding:

              In Congress, @LatimerforNY will protect abortion rights, stand up to the NRA, and fight for President Bidenโ€™s agendaโ€”just like heโ€™s always done.

              Make a plan to vote by June 25th!

              According to Mediaite, last month CNNโ€™s Manu Raju wrote that it is โ€œthe most competitive primary an incumbent House Democrat is facing anywhere in the country.โ€

              Bowman, a progressive Democrat and member of the so-called โ€œSquad,โ€ has faced intense criticism from party colleagues over his strong criticism of Israel during its war against Hamas in Gaza following Oct. 7th.

              โ€œHeโ€™s gone far enough out that even the left-leaning Israel advocacy group J Street withdrew its endorsement of Bowman in January, complaining that he had crossed a line in putting the blame for the conflict too much on Israel and not on Hamas,โ€ reported Raju in May, adding:

              Now even many of Bowmanโ€™s fellow New York Democrats in Congress say privately they doubt he will win โ€“ but more than that, when asked by CNN, several pointedly refused to say that they want Bowman to win, or that they would support him as the race enters its final month ahead of the June 25 primary.

              Bowman was also censured by the House last December after he pulled a fire alarm in an apparent effort to disrupt a vote. Bowman initially claimed he โ€œmistakenlyโ€ pulled the alarm while rushing to vote. However, security footage late made public debunked his story. (RELATED: House Votes To Censure Democrat Rep.

              Arizona Attorney General To Pursue New Indictment In 2020 Election Case

              2
              Photo via Gage Skidmore Flickr

              Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes is taking another shot at prosecuting several allies of President Donald Trump after the Arizona Supreme Court declined to revive her earlier indictment.

              Mayes’ office confirmed Thursday that prosecutors will present the case to a new grand jury, according to Politico.

              The decision comes after a significant setback for Mayes, a Democrat, whose original case was thrown out over questions about how prosecutors presented the law to grand jurors.

              At the center of the dispute was whether prosecutors properly provided the grand jury with the exact language of the statute defendants were accused of attempting to violate. A lower court found they had not. On Tuesday, the Arizona Supreme Court declined to overturn that ruling, effectively ending the original indictment.

              Rather than abandon the case, Mayes is now moving forward with a fresh grand jury presentation.

              The original indictment targeted several high-profile Trump allies, including former White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows, former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani, constitutional attorney John Eastman, and a group of Republican activists who served as alternate electors in Arizona following the 2020 election.

              Trump himself was not charged, although prosecutors identified him as an unindicted co-conspirator.

              Mayes’ office alleged that Trump allies participated in a scheme to challenge Arizona’s 2020 election results through an alternate-elector effort. Prosecutors argued the plan involved fraudulent and forged documents that were ultimately sent to Congress.

              The Arizona case is one of several prosecutions brought by Democratic officials in the aftermath of the 2020 election.

              Many of those cases have encountered major legal obstacles.

              In Georgia, the election-interference case against Trump and several co-defendants was thrown into uncertainty after Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was disqualified from the prosecution.

              At the federal level, former Special Counsel Jack Smith’s election-related case against Trump was dismissed after Trump won the 2024 presidential election and returned to office.

              In Michigan, a judge dismissed criminal charges against a group of alternate electors after determining they were not the primary architects of the alleged effort.

              Cases involving alternate electors remain active in Nevada and Wisconsin.

              With Arizona’s highest court refusing to reinstate the original indictment, Mayes now faces the challenge of persuading a new grand jury that the case should move forward. Whether a second attempt succeeds remains to be seen, but the legal battle over the 2020 election continues to play out in courtrooms across the country.
