Trump Says New Conservative Host Should be Fired from ‘The View’

    Trump has a heavy opinion about “The View’s” latest additions.

    The former President slammed his former communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin and called for her to be fired from ABC’s daytime political talk show.

    “Alyssa Farah totally misrepresented her true feelings about me and the Trump Administration in order to get her job at ratings disaster CNN, and a seat with the low IQ people at The View,” Trump said in a Truth Social post.

    “Look at what she said about me, and that doesn’t include the beautiful letter she sent and other statements she made. They should fire her for misrepresentation or fraud. Release the letter, Alyssa!”

    Trump also referenced a number of tweets from Griffin where she said it was the “honor of a lifetime” working for his administration. However, since her departure from the White House Griffin has publicly turned on her former boss and was named a new panelist for “The View” over the summer, filling Meghan McCain’s seat.

    Griffin has faced accusations from both sides of the political aisle that she’s shifted her own political views to gain notoriety.

    European Parliament Member Nominates Elon Musk for Nobel Prize

      A European Parliament member from Slovenia says he nominated tech giant Elon Musk for a Nobel Peace Prize for his free speech advocacy.

      “The proposal that Mr. Elon Musk, for his consistent support for the fundamental human right of freedom of speech and thus for peace, receives the Nobel Peace Prize 2025, was successfully submitted today,” Branko Grims wrote in a Thursday post on X.

      “Sincere thanks to all the co-proposers and everyone who helped with this challenging project!” added Grims.

      Grims is a longtime figure in Slovenian politics who has suggested “remigration” to remove immigrants from Europe.

      Alongside his statement Thursday, Grims shared an email from the Norwegian Nobel Institute showing the nomination was successfully submitted.

      Grims in December argued Musk deserved a Nobel Peace Prize for advancing “free speech.”

      “I propose that Elon Musk receives the Nobel Peace Prize for the next year because he did much more for the freedom of speech, which is a basic human right, much more than anybody else in the third millennium,” the European Parliament member told Brussels Signal News

      He added that Musk’s takeover of Twitter, which he rebranded as X, was “the best of what [could have] happened for Western civilization in the last few years.”

      The Tesla CEO was nominated for the prize last year by Norwegian libertarian MP Marius Nilsen.

      President Trump has also been nominated for the prize.

      Republican lawmaker Claudia Tenney (R-N.Y.) nominated Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize last year, citing the brokerage of the Abraham Accords. 

      And Trump said in February 2019 that the late Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe also nominated him for the prize.

      Cuban Regime Finally Loses a Longtime Fugitive: Joanne “Assata” Shakur Dies in Havana

      3

      Havana, Cuba — On September 25, 2025, Cuba’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs confirmed that Joanne Deborah Byron — better known by her aliases Joanne Chesimard and Assata Shakur — died in Havana at the age of 78 due to health complications and the rigors of old age.

      This news brings to a close a decades-long saga in which a convicted murderer escaped justice, was shielded by a hostile foreign regime, and became a symbol for radical causes.


      A Fugitive’s Origin: From Violent Crime to Escape to Cuba

      In 1977, Chesimard was convicted on multiple serious charges including first-degree murder, armed robbery, and other felonies after a 1973 shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike that left State Trooper Werner Foerster dead.

      She escaped prison in 1979, spent years underground, and resurfaced in 1984 under asylum in Cuba — a regime that refused U.S. extradition requests.

      For decades, the United States and New Jersey authorities pushed Cuba to hand her over. She carried the dubious distinction of being the first woman ever placed on the FBI’s Most Wanted Terrorists list, with a $1 million reward for her capture.


      A Death Without Accountability

      Her passing in Havana presents a bitter irony: after decades of immunity facilitated by a foreign government, she dies free — far from the prison cell where she was supposed to serve life in the U.S.

      New Jersey officials immediately expressed outrage. They reiterated that justice was never fully served for Trooper Foerster’s family.

      Cuba’s complicity in harboring Chesimard has long been roundly condemned by American leaders. Senator Marco Rubio recently denounced Havana for providing “a safe haven for terrorists and criminals, including fugitives from the United States.”

      What She Represented — and What the U.S. Must Learn

      For defenders of law and order, her story is a cautionary tale of diplomatic failure and ideological double standards.

      • Rule of Law Must Be Absolute: A convicted cop killer escaping and living with impunity is a stain on the integrity of the justice system.
      • Foreign Regimes Should Not Shield Criminals: Cuba’s refusal to extradite Chesimard fashioned her into a political symbol, rather than merely a criminal. That sets a dangerous precedent.
      • Consistency in Foreign Policy Matters: If the U.S. does not forcefully demand accountability from regimes that shelter fugitives, it weakens its moral and strategic footing.

      Now that she has died abroad, the question of bringing her remains home may arise. But more importantly, the memory of Trooper Foerster — his sacrifice and service — must remain central. And the mission remains: to hold foreign governments accountable when they interfere with American justice.

      Ted Cruz Tees Up 2028 White House Campaign

        1

        Senator Ted Cruz (R-TX) is quietly but unmistakably preparing for a 2028 presidential run — a move that could put him on a direct collision course with Vice President JD Vance in the next Republican primary. According to reporting from Axios’s Alex Isenstadt, Cruz has been meeting with donors, stepping up his presence on the national speaking circuit, and engaging deeply in Republican efforts ahead of next year’s midterm elections, all part of a broader effort to position himself for another bid for the White House.

        A key part of Cruz’s early strategy, Isenstadt notes, involves leaning into his ongoing feud with Tucker Carlson, a prominent conservative voice and close ally of Vance. From the Axios story: “Texas Sen. Ted Cruz is laying the groundwork for a 2028 presidential bid by leaning into his feud with Tucker Carlson — and staking out turf as a traditional, pro-interventionist Republican.” The report states that by challenging Carlson’s isolationist foreign-policy views and calling out what he sees as dangerous rhetoric, Cruz is deliberately drawing a contrast with Vance, who many observers — including President Trump — view as one of the early frontrunners for the 2028 GOP nomination. In recent comments, Trump has suggested that both Vance and Senator Marco Rubio are likely to be central contenders in the next Republican race, underscoring how competitive the field may quickly become.

        Axios quotes Cruz as saying: “We have a responsibility to speak out even when it’s uncomfortable. When voices in our own movement push dangerous and misguided ideas, we can’t look the other way. I won’t hesitate to call out those who peddle destructive, vile rhetoric and threaten our principles and our future. Silence in the face of recklessness is not an option.”

        The Texas senator has been explicit about his concern over what he calls a “growing cancer” of anti-Semitism on the Right — an issue he argues is being fueled in part by isolationist arguments gaining traction among younger conservatives. In a speech last month, Cruz warned: “This poison of anti-Semitism on the right, it is spreading with young people. It is gaining traction. But I will tell you, there is a movement among Christians, particularly young Christians. The public polling numbers of support for Israel among young Christians is plummeting. And they’re being spread lies. They’re being spread lies, isolationist lies that we should withdraw from the world because nobody wants to hurt us. But they’re also being spread theological lies.”

        Vance, for his part, has criticized extremist figures like Nick Fuentes but has said nothing publicly about Carlson, who reportedly advocated for Vance during the 2024 vice-presidential selection process. And at a Turning Point USA event last month, Vance appeared to entertain the underlying assumptions of a student’s comments suggesting that Jews support the “prosecution” of Christianity while asking a question about America’s relationship with Israel.

        As both Cruz and Vance work to define themselves in a post-Trump Republican Party — one where debates over foreign policy, Israel, and America’s engagement with the world are increasingly central — the early contours of the 2028 primary are already taking shape.

        Trump Scores Ohio Republican Party Endorsement

          Ohio’s Republican Party endorsed former President Trump in his reelection bid for the White House on Friday.

          “President Trump has proven time and again that despite the unhinged and relentless attacks from the radical left, he will never give up on fighting for Ohio’s workers, business and families,”  Ohio Republican Party chair Alex M. Triantafilou said in a Trump campaign press release. “His unapologetic leadership and commitment to putting America First is exactly what we need to reverse course from the failed policies of Joe Biden and Sherrod Brown.”

          According to multiple sources, the Ohio Republican Party was the first state Republican party to endorse the former president in the election. 

          “While we appreciate all of the Republican candidates who are passionately making their case to the American people, it is clear that President Trump is the right choice in this moment,” Triantafilou continued in his statement.

          Arizona Attorney General To Pursue New Indictment In 2020 Election Case

          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.

          Prominent National Conservative Group Distances Itself From Trump

            The Club for Growth has invited six possible Republican presidential candidates to its annual donor retreat. Former President Donald Trump isn’t one of them.

            The anti-tax super PAC spent $150 million in the past two election cycles boosting GOP candidates across the country. Its leader, David McIntosh, believes the Republican Party’s chances of reclaiming the White House in two years’ time will be significantly diminished if Trump becomes the party’s nominee.

            Now, McIntosh wants to do all he can to introduce major donors to other possibilities.

            The New York Times reports:

            “The party should be open to another candidate,” Mr. McIntosh said, suggesting that Republicans had already lost too many elections with Mr. Trump as the face of the party.

            The group and the former president clashed during last year’s Ohio GOP Senate primary. Trump sent McIntosh a vulgar message less than one month after graciously introducing him at a rally.

            In OHSEN, Trump had expected McIntosh from the Club for Growth to stop supporting Mandel after Trump backed Vance. The Club aired a new spot today featuring Vance quotes criticizing Trump in the past. Trump had his assistant send McIntosh a text saying, “Go f*^% yourself.” April 21, 2022

            The Times continues:

            Mr. McIntosh insisted that there was no personal animosity guiding the group’s interest in seeking another option for the 2024 nomination. Instead, he said that Mr. Trump had proved to be toxic among general election voters, adding that Republicans had lost elections in 2018, 2020 and 2022 on the former president’s watch.

            Mr. Trump’s standing among Republicans dipped in public opinion polls in November and December. In addition to being largely blamed for the Republicans’ disappointing midterm season, he was also roundly criticized after hosting a private dinner — a week after his campaign announcement — with Kanye West, who has been denounced for making antisemitic statements, and Nick Fuentes, an outspoken antisemite and prominent young white supremacist.

            Billionaire Harris Supporter Admits Recent Trump Comments Were A ‘Mistake’

              1

              Billionaire investor Mark Cuban is attempting to walk back his recent comments about Donald Trump.

              Last week, Cuban embarrassed himself on “The View” sparking immediate backlash from conservatives. Now, he’s admitting his comments were “a mistake.”

              Cuban came under fire Thursday after he claimed former President Trump wouldn’t campaign with women like former Republican presidential candidate Nikki Haley because he doesn’t associate with “strong, intelligent women.”

              “Donald Trump, you never see him around strong, intelligent women. Ever,” Cuban said. “It’s just that simple. They’re intimidating to him. He doesn’t like to be challenged by them, and, you know, Nikki Haley will call him on his nonsense with reproductive rights and how he sees and treats and talks about women. I mean, he just can’t have her around. It wouldn’t work.”

              Cuban has been attempting to spin his comments since they went viral on Thursday and drew the ire of several prominent conservative women.

              “It’s part of politics, it was my mistake, and I apologized for it. I certainly wasn’t saying anything negative about anyone supporting Trump,” Cuban said.

              “This is what I said during a conversation about why Nikki Haley was not active in his campaign,” Cuban wrote on X Thursday. “I know many strong, intelligent women voting for Trump, including in my extended family. I’m certainly not saying female voters are not smart, strong and intelligent.”

              “I know he has worked with strong, intelligent women, like Elaine Chao, Kelly Anne, Ivanka and many others,” Cuban added. “I stand by my opinion that he does not like being challenged publicly.”

              Ex-NATO Commander Warns Trump Is ‘Greater Threat’ to Alliance Than Putin

              A former senior NATO commander is drawing headlines after claiming President Donald Trump poses a greater threat to the Western alliance than Russian President Vladimir Putin—a charge the White House has forcefully rejected and that many U.S. conservatives say ignores key facts about NATO’s recent history.

              In an interview with The Independent, General Sir Richard Shirreff, NATO’s former deputy supreme allied commander for Europe, criticized Trump’s blunt rhetoric toward U.S. allies, particularly comments about Greenland and European defense commitments.

              “We have to take him literally,” Shirreff told the newspaper. “We have to assume with Trump, as with Putin, that the worst case will happen. Trump is the greater threat [to NATO] if you want to make the comparison. It’s Trump who gets the prize.”

              Shirreff’s remarks come despite Trump’s repeated insistence that he would not use force to take Greenland, a territory controlled by NATO member Denmark. Trump has framed the issue primarily in terms of U.S. national security and Arctic defense, arguing that America bears disproportionate responsibility for protecting the region.

              During his first term—and again since returning to office—Trump has consistently pressed NATO allies to meet their long-standing commitment to spend at least 2 percent of GDP on defense, a goal many European countries ignored for decades. Supporters argue that Trump’s tough approach helped reverse years of complacency and forced allies to take their own security more seriously.

              Shirreff nevertheless went further, claiming Trump had “destroyed the international order” during the first year of his second term and was undermining NATO itself.

              “The lead nation of the alliance has threatened the territorial integrity of another member,” Shirreff said. “How do you move on and rebuild trust? Nobody will trust Trump again.”

              Many Republicans counter that this view overlooks Trump’s record of strengthening NATO militarily rather than rhetorically. U.S. defense spending rose during Trump’s presidency, and several NATO countries increased their own military budgets after sustained pressure from Washington—something previous administrations had failed to achieve.

              Shirreff acknowledged that Russia remains an “existential threat” to Europe, but argued that Vladimir Putin’s 2022 invasion of Ukraine initially unified NATO, while Trump has allegedly “decoupled America from European security” and left the alliance “below the waterline.”

              “Clearly, Putin threatened it massively but Trump has attacked the one alliance which grants our security,” Shirreff said, adding that the rules-based global system was now “a dead duck.”

              The White House sharply disputed that assessment. In a statement to The Independent, officials dismissed Shirreff’s comments and said Trump “has done more for NATO than anyone,” pointing to U.S. military contributions and increased allied defense spending under his leadership.

              On Greenland, the White House added: “The United States is the only NATO partner who can protect Greenland, and the President is advancing NATO interests in doing so.”

              Democratic-Leaning Pollster Shows Trump Leading Harris Nationally

              A new national poll by Quinnipiac reveals a close and highly competitive race between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. According to the poll, conducted between Sept. 19-22, Trump leads Harris by 1%, securing 48% of likely voters’ support compared to Harris’ 47%. (The previous August poll showed a different story, with Harris leading by 2%.)

              Quinnipiac is a well-known polling institution that gained attention during the 2020 election cycle when it predicted an 11-point victory for President Biden – though the final margin was just 4.5 percentage points.

              Polling Details at a Glance:

              • Sample Size: 1,728 likely voters
              • Dates: Sept. 19-22
              • Previous Poll Results: Harris up by 2% in August
              • Current Poll Results: Trump 48%, Harris 47%

              Voter Demographics: A Deeper Look

              Both Trump and Harris show strong support within their own parties, but Trump edges out Harris slightly among independent voters, with 47% compared to Harris’ 44%. Notably, Trump also holds a 14-point advantage with male voters, while Harris leads by 12 points among women.

              When looking at age demographics, Harris performs best among older voters (65+), where she has an 8-point lead. She also wins the youngest voters (18-34), but only by 3%. Trump, on the other hand, captures the majority of voters in the 35-64 age group.

              Key Findings on Racial and Ethnic Voters

              A crucial factor in this tight race is the support from racial and ethnic groups:

              • Black Americans overwhelmingly support Harris, with 83% expressing their preference for the Democratic candidate.
              • Hispanic voters, however, tilt toward Trump, with 52% supporting him compared to 44% for Harris.

              As The Hill reports:

              Nearly two-thirds of likely voters, 64 percent, said they would like a second debate between the White House contenders. Around 31 percent of respondents thought otherwise. Last week, Harris accepted an invitation for a second showdown from CNN. Trump said during his campaign event in North Carolina that it’s “too late to do another” debate. 

              Another new poll, conducted by CNN and SSRS, found a similar split among likely voters. In the national poll, also released Tuesday, Harris received 48 percent support, while Trump got 47 percent. 

              Harris currently has a near-4 percent lead over Trump in the latest The Hill/Decision Desk HQ aggregate of polls. The vice president stands at 50.4 percent. The ex-president is at 46.5 percent.

              The bottom line? The race is still too close to call with 41 days left until Election Day.
