I am old enough to think of Republicans as case hardened Russia haters. The readiness with which many Republicans side with Russia in the Ukraine war baffles me.

 

Yes but Putin has some nasty dirt on Trump. Obtained when Trump went to Russia for the miss universe competition.

“Do you think Putin will be going to The Miss Universe Pageant in November in Moscow—if so, will he become my new best friend?” - Donald Trump

 

It just hit me today. Trump selling Bibles allows Churches to make legal donations to his campaign. This avoids the separation of Church and State and Election laws! Brillian move because it's not against the law for him to do that.

 

Racist fake outrage doesn't sell if you can't even get the basic facts straight.


Trump slammed for getting basic fact wrong about woman recently killed in Michigan

Former President Donald Trump was slammed Tuesday for getting a basic fact wrong about a young woman violently killed in Michigan last month.

During his rally in Grand Rapids, Trump brought up the tragic case of Ruby Garcia, whose fatal shooting spurred the arrest of Brandon Ortiz-Vite on felony murder charges in March.

Ortiz-Vite has not yet been convicted in the crime, which has raised national attention due to the suspect's immigration status, but that did not stop Trump from declaring, "He shot 17-year-old Ruby."

Trump went on to describe Garcia as a "beautiful, beautiful young woman."

The presumptive Republican candidate argued Michigan voters should chose him in the upcoming presidential election, saying only he could prevent unauthorized immigrants from "crawling through your windows and ransacking your drawers."

But the former president got a basic fact of the Ruby Garcia case wrong, and commenters on social media did not hesitate to correct him: Garcia's reported age was 25.

"She was 25." wrote X user capitaltigers. "He's not well."

"She was an adult," wrote "Lady O'Gaga." "He only wishes she was 17."

"So disgraceful," replied "Connie." "At least get the facts right when you're using a crime victim to pander to your cult."

The former president has been leaning aggressively into stories about immigrant crime — despite having played a pivotal role in scuppering a bipartisan border security agreement brokered in the Senate this year — as he takes to the presidential campaign trail, trying to whip his supporters into a nationalist frenzy.

He is joined by a number of other Republicans, such as Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC), who have pushed the narrative as well. In reality, immigrants of all types and statuses are less likely to commit crimes than native-born American citizens.

This is a new little wrinkle that seems to be gaining some traction. And remember President Biden had his physical evaluation at Walter Reed Hospital. So where is Trump getting his?

Trump's health questioned by expert after his latest doctor refuses to reveal details

The most recent report on Donald Trump's health is being questioned by an expert on aging who would like to provide the public with answers about the "projected life span and health" of President Joe Biden and the former president who is making a third run for the Oval Office.

In a deep dive into the background of Trump's new doctor, Dr. Bruce A. Aronwald, a 64-year-old osteopathic physician, the Washington Post is reporting the New Jersey physician is a longtime member of the former president's Bedminster golf club who specializes in wealthy clients serving as a "concierge" doctor.

As the report from the Post's Michael Kranish notes, a central focus of the 2024 presidential election is the health of the 81-year-old Biden and the 77-year-old Trump, and details about Trump's health are severely lacking.

A November letter about Trump's health, written by Aronwald and released by the former president's campaign, stood in stark contrast to a White House report on Biden's health, with the Post reporting it lacked "specifics like blood pressure and medications, the letter had just three paragraphs without specific numbers proclaiming that Trump was in 'excellent health' and had 'exceptional' cognitive ability. It did not disclose Trump’s weight."

An attempt by the Post to ask for more specifics was rebuffed after a visit to the doctor's office, with the doctor explaining, "There is no need for President Trump to release another medical report in addition to the one he recently made public. The President is strong physically and sharp cognitively, and he’s in excellent health overall.”

According to S. Jay Olshansky, "the lead author of a 2020 report in the journal Active Aging" on the relative health of Biden and Trump, there is not enough information to adequately address the former president's health status four years later.

"In his Nov. 23 letter about Trump’s health, Aronwald said he had conducted the most recent examination of Trump on Sept. 13, 2023. While not providing any specific numbers or names of prescription medication, Aronwald wrote that Trump’s 'overall health is excellent,' that his physical exams were 'well within the normal range and his cognitive exams were exceptional.' The letter also said that Trump’s cardiovascular studies were normal and cancer tests were negative," the report states.

According to aging expert Olshansky, "the full medical records are extraordinarily valuable. They tell a story about health prospects for survival going forward. You can’t really do a thorough assessment of life span and health span without the medical records.”

As for Aronwald, Ira Monka, the president of the American Osteopathic Association, stated he is well regarded in his field, telling the Post, his colleague is a "top concierge doctor," adding, "You get to that point, you could not get there if you were not a solid fundamentally strong primary care doctor.”

Trump says Jewish Americans who vote for Biden don’t love Israel and ‘should be spoken to’

Former President leaving the page." data-wf-tooltip-position="bottom" data-wf-reset-every="90">Donald Trump on Monday again criticized Jewish Americans who don’t support him and said any Jewish person who votes for President Joe Biden doesn’t love Israel and “should be spoken to.”

It’s the latest example of the presumptive GOP nominee playing into an antisemitic trope that Jewish Americans have dual loyalties to the US and to Israel.

“Any Jewish person that votes for Biden does not love Israel and frankly, should be spoken to,” Trump said in an interview aired Monday night on Real America’s Voice.


Trump argued Biden was “totally on the side of the Palestinians” amid Israel’s war with Hamas in Gaza. Biden has largely remained steadfast in his support of Israel’s right to defend itself, only last week seriously threatening Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu with consequences if Israel did not change the way it was waging its war. And Trump just last week said Israel needed to “finish what they started” and “get it over with fast,” as he said Israel was “losing the PR war” because of the visuals coming out of Gaza.

Trump also argued on Monday that Jewish and Black Americans vote for Democrats “by habit.”

“A lot of it’s habit. Jewish people by habit, they just, they vote for the Democrats and Black people, by habit, vote for the Democrats,” Trump said.

His latest comments echo remarks he made last month that earned swift condemnation from Biden’s administration and reelection campaign. Speaking on a podcast hosted by his former White House aide Sebastian Gorka, Trump said any Jewish person who votes for Democrats “hates their religion” and hates “everything about Israel.”

Trump has long played into antisemitic tropes, lashing out at Jewish Americans he says don’t support him enough. During his first campaign for president, he delivered a speech to the Republican Jewish Coalition that was rife with antisemitic stereotypes, and shortly after he left office in 2021, he told reporters that Jewish Americans have turned their back on Israel.

A year later, he said American Jews weren’t praising his administration’s policies toward Israel enough: “Evangelicals are far more appreciative of this than the people of the Jewish faith, especially those living in the U.S.” And last year, during celebrations of the Jewish New Year, Trump shared a social media post that said liberal Jews who did not support him “voted to destroy America & Israel.”

At least 63% of American Jews said their place in American society is less secure than a year ago, according to a report released last month by the American Jewish Committee. The Anti-Defamation League tracked a total of 3,283 antisemitic incidents in the three months following Hamas’ October 7 attacks on Israel, CNN previously reported, a 361% increase compared to the same period the prior year.

Jewish Americans have for decades been a largely Democratic and politically liberal constituency, identifying with Democrats over Republicans by a wide margin, according to the Pew Research Center’s 2020 survey. While Orthodox Jews lean heavily Republican, American Jews of other denominations, including the Reform and Conservative branches, have identified with or leaned toward the Democratic party.

'Confused' Trump just ordered Republicans to kill the wrong statute: Fox News analyst

A "confused" former President Donald Trump directed House Republicans to "kill" a legislative effort Wednesday he mistook for another statute, according to Fox News' White House correspondent.

Jacqui Heinrich made this disturbing point about Trump's messaging to Republicans roughly two hours after NBC reported a "conservative revolt" blocked reauthorization of a Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.

"Trump confused FISA Section 702 with FISA Title 1 when he directed House Republicans to tank reauthorization today," Heinrich wrote. "Confusion and misinformation about this national security tool is rampant."

Heinrich then shared two screenshots of Trump messages, the first a Truth Social message dated April 10, 2024, and second dated Jan. 18, 2018.


"KILL FISA, IT WAS ILLEGALLY USED AGAINST ME, AND MANY OTHERS," Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday. "THEY SPIED ON MY CAMPAIGN!!"

The message "Kill FISA" then echoed through social media via conservatives such as Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene and Lauren Boebert, despite calls from the families of 9/11 victims pleading with House Republican to pass the security measure they believe could prevent another terrorist attack on U.S. soil.

But the legislation — which even Speaker Mike Johnson has called "critically important" — was blocked just 19 days before it is set to expire, according to NBC's report.

According to Heinrich's reporting, Trump might have agreed with Johnson's assessment, as he boasted about signing its reauthorization as president in 2018.

"Just signed 702 Bill to reauthorize foreign intelligence collection," Trump's older social media message reads. "This is NOT the same FISA law that was so wrongly abused during the election."

Section 702 permits the government to conduct targeted surveillance of foreign persons located outside the U.S., government documents show. Title 1 governs how the U.S. can target foreign powers and their agents, including those who are U.S. citizens.

Heinrich then explained, "Trump knew the difference."

'A new level': Trump mocked for pushing law to ban something 'already against the law'

Donald Trump and House Speaker Mike Johnson are holding a big press conference at Mar-a-Lago on Friday where they will reportedly propose a bill that was already passed 28 years ago in 1996.

According to USA Today, the men will demand passage of a bill that would prevent immigrants from voting in an election. The problem is that this is already a law on the books.

"All non-U.S. citizens, including unauthorized immigrants, are ineligible to vote in federal elections. The Illegal Immigration Reform and Immigrant Responsibility Act of 1996... introduced criminal penalties for noncitizens who vote in federal elections," quoted reporter Jennifer Shutt from the Congressional Research Service cited in its report "Unauthorized Immigrants: Frequently Asked Questions," published Aug. 10, 2022.

ALSO READ: Who will Robert F. Kennedy Jr. hurt more in Election 2024? History has an answer.

USA Today's promotion of the Trump event neglects to mention that there is already a law for this.

Democrats have criticized the Republican-led Congress as the body unproductive. Thus far, the "Do Nothing Congress," as critics have referred to it, has passed 47 bills. The last previously known "Do Nothing Congress," was named after President Harry Truman for passing only 906 bills.

"As with most things the GOP is looking for solutions to a non-existent problems," complained one person.

"Please these peeps don’t vote they trying to survive!" said another.

"It’s pure BS. Unauthorized immigrants cannot vote in federal elections," complained Mike Walker, a former FEMA senior official.

New York Assemblyman Charles D. Lavine was just as annoyed. He complained on X, "Non citizens are not allowed to vote in our elections. Leave it to the ilk of Trump and Johnson to try to scare Americans. BS to their lies."

Another frustrated citizen cursed at the Republicans: "A NEW level of f--ked up. Let's promote a bill to prevent something that is already against the law."

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) complained at the end of last year that the opposing party had done nothing but focus on the impeachment they were plotting against President Joe Biden.

“As Speaker Johnson’s Do-Nothing Republican Congress spent the entirety of 2023 pushing lies and catering to Donald Trump, launching a nonsensical impeachment inquiry into President Biden, expelling its own Members, overthrowing the Speaker, and shirking its duty to fund the government, Committee Democrats poured our time and energy into working for the American people and defending the rule of law," he said in a release.

It wasn't long after that Raskin pointed to House Republicans, on “orders from” Trump, for killing the first agreement between Democrats and Republicans on the border in decades.

“Rather than joining Democrats and Biden in good faith, bipartisan negotiations to make progress on immigration, they are taking orders from Donald Trump and actively obstructing a bipartisan border deal,” Raskin said in January.

Republicans have suffered backlash for the move, with Democrats saying that they can't run on concerns about the border while blocking laws to fix it.

"Because Republicans do not want to fix the border. The secret's out. For Republicans, the border is a moneymaking grievance machine. And if we passed our border bill and fixed the problem, Republicans literally wouldn't know what for do with their days," said Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) in a February floor speech.

+american hater+wrong story= lies, half truths and propaganda.
Here's another episode of the rest of the story.

Read the above copy N paste from american hater carefully.
Take note that the article is arrogantly claiming that "the law" prohibits non citizens from voting in FEDERAL elections.
This is true.

The rest of the story is that Johnson's and Trumps issue is that FEDERAL LAW does not prohibit a non citizen from voting in state or local elections. it is this they are bringing the spotlight to bear on.
In fact, three states and the District of Columbia do allow non citizens to vote.
​

Laws permitting noncitizens to vote in the United States - Ballotpedia

"The District of Columbia and municipalities in three states allowed noncitizens to vote in local elections as of March 2024: California, Maryland, and Vermont.​

According to the Pew Research Center, there were over 25 million noncitizens living in the U.S. as of 2020. That included approximately 12 million permanent residents and 2 million temporary residents who were in the country with legal permission, as well as approximately 11 million immigrants who resided in the country without legal permission.[3]​

Whether noncitizens should be allowed to vote is a subject of debate. Click here for support and opposition arguments and here for more on the debate over the prevalence of non-citizen voting."​

So it would seem that bidens plan of open borders to, you know, get a fresh infusion of government reliant despicable voting bodies is moving to the next stage.

And Johnson and Trump aim to stop it.

Which explains the wrong story article.
And american hater copy N pasting it here.

Whatever it takes, eh american hater?

'Pathological liar': Trump gets roasted for saying he's 'the most honest guy' in the world

Donald Trump on Saturday claimed at a rally that he is "the most honest guy, almost, in the world." The internet responded by ridiculing him and pointing out the former president's prior lies.

Trump delivered his remarks at a rally in Schnecksville, Pennsylvania, where he suggested that he was put to the test more than anyone else when he was still in office as president of the U.S. The former president noted that he was accused of wrongdoing in connection with Russia, Ukraine, and more.

"Millions of pages of study, they found nothing," the ex-president said at the weekend campaign event. He then added, "which makes me perhaps the most honest guy, almost, in the world, I think."

It did not take long for Biden-Harris HQ, the official rapid response page for the Biden-Harris campaign, to call Trump a liar for making the honesty claim.

"Trump, lying, claims he's the 'most honest guy, almost, in the world,'" the account wrote.

Conservative attorney and anti-Trump activism George Conway also chimed in, echoing what Biden's campaign suggested.

"This should go without saying to anyone with an IQ higher than a kumquat's: Only a pathological liar would say such a thing," Conway said.

Combat veteran Matthew Spira said, "Narrator: Trump is the most documented liar in American political history. Number two is not even close."

The pro-democracy conservative group Republicans Against Trump used a clown emoji to describe Trump saying he was the "most honest guy."

Journalist Aaron Rupar noted that, while Trump described himself as "perhaps the most honest guy," he "goes on trial for fraud Monday."

Republican strategist Cryptid Politics said, "No, Donald Trump, you are not even close to being the most honest guy in the world."

Trump Goes On Wild Rally Tangent About the Battle of Gettysburg: ‘So Vicious, and Horrible and So Beautiful in So Many Different Ways’
Joe DePaoloApr 14th, 2024, 9:44 am



Former President Donald Trump went on a wild tangent about the Battle of Gettysburg during a Saturday night rally in a key 2024 swing state.

Speaking to supporters in Schnecksville, PA — roughly two hours away from the site of the historic Civil War battle — the former president spoke extemporaneously about Gettysburg and its significance.


“Gettysburg, what an unbelievable battle that was,” Trump “The Battle of Gettysburg. What an unbelievable — it was so much, and so interesting, and so vicious and horrible, and so beautiful in so many different ways. It represented such a big portion of the success of this country. Gettysburg, wow.”

The Battle of Gettysburg was the deadliest of the Civil war. More than 50,000 were killed over three days in early July 1863. The war officially continued for nearly two years, but Gettysburg is widely considered the turning point in the Union’s eventual victory.

Trump went on to say this about Confederate General Robert E. Lee (via Newsweek):


“Robert E. Lee, who’s no longer in favor — did you ever notice it? He’s no longer in favor. ‘Never fight uphill, me boys, never fight uphill.’ They were fighting uphill, he said, ‘Wow, that was a big mistake,’ he lost his big general. ‘Never fight uphill, me boys,’ but it was too late.”

'Hoo boy': Pulitzer Prize-winning historian takes a hatchet to Trump's Gettysburg rant

Brad Reed
April 15, 2024 6:48AM ET








T.J. Stiles, an historian whose biography of Gen. George Custer won the Pulitzer Prize for History in 2016, found himself dumbfounded by the ignorance former President Donald Trump displayed when he talked about the American Civil War over the weekend.

In particular, Stiles said that Trump's rant about the Battle of Gettysburg during his rally in Pennsylvania was so historically illiterate that he began his analysis of it by simply saying, "Hoo boy."

Stiles took a hatchet to Trump's depiction of Gen. Robert E. Lee as a passive observer during the battle, when in reality it was Lee's decisions that led to disaster for the Confederacy.

"Trump's rambling, unhinged depiction of Lee is that of a great general betrayed by his stupid troops," Stiles wrote on Twitter. "You'd never know he gave the orders for the campaign and battle. He said after Pickett's charge that it was all his fault. It was."

ALSO READ: Revealed: What government officials privately shared about Trump not disclosing finances

Stiles also whacked Trump for depicting Lee as a noble man despite the fact that Lee's goal was to destroy the American Union.

"Let's think it through: How can saving the Union be good -- but the guy who tried to destroy it be good too?" Stiles asked rhetorically. "Worse than that, Lee issued orders on the Gettysburg campaign for his troops to enslave all the Black people they could find—not just 'runaways' but those born free. A system was set up for processing them. Of the many things the campaign was, it was also a big slave raid."

Stiles then drew parallels between the history of the American Civil War and current events.

"Many still have a vague notion in their heads of Civil War history written by segregationists a century ago to serve an agenda," Stiles contended. "It serves Trump's agenda too."

Trump goes on panicky early-morning Truth Social spree hours before his trial

Donald Trump will become the first former president to stand trial on criminal charges starting Monday, and he began the morning with a series of panicky social media posts about his legal predicament.

The ex-president again blamed President Joe Biden for his indictment in the Manhattan criminal trial involving his hush money payment to porn actress Stormy Daniels weeks ahead of the 2016 election, and Trump demanded the case be dropped due to the statute of limitations and accused judge Juan Merchan of conflicts of interest.

"As virtually every legal scholar has powerfully stated, the Biden Manhattan Witch Hunt Case is, among other things, BARRED by the Statute of Limitations," Trump posted on Truth Social. "This 'trial' should be ended by the highly conflicted presiding Judge."

Trump was indicted on 34 separate felony counts of falsifying business records to conceal his reimbursements to his then-attorney Michael Cohen for payments made to Daniels to conceal their extramarital affair, and while the statute of limitations for that crime is five years, New York law allows for a pause on that limit if the defendant was living out of state – which he was while serving four years in the White House.

"The Radical Left Democrats are already cheating on the 2024 Presidential Election by bringing, or helping to bring, all of these bogus lawsuits against me, thereby forcing me to sit in courthouses, and spend money that could be used for campaigning, instead of being out in the field knocking Crooked Joe Biden, the WORST President in the History of the United States," Trump posted. "Election Interference!"

Manhattan district attorney Alvin Bragg alleges that Trump, Cohen and National Enquirer publisher David Pecker arranged to pay off Daniels and former Playboy model Karen McDougal to keep them quiet about sexual relationships with Trump shortly before he was elected president, and just after the "Access Hollywood" recording threatened to end his campaign.
