Former 2024 Independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced Sunday that he will “actively” campaign with 2024 Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Kennedy suspended his campaign and endorsed Trump Friday afternoon, later joining forces with the former president that evening at a campaign rally in Phoenix, Arizona. Kennedy told “Fox News Sunday” host Shannon Bream that Trump will join forces with other Democrats as the election cycle progresses. “I’ll be campaigning actively,” Kennedy told Bream. “President Trump is going to make a series of announcements of other Democrats who are joining his campaign. And, you know, I wanna make America healthy again, and so does President Trump.”

My grandfather was a yellow dog democrat. He hated FDR but voted for him 4 times because he was a democrat. He loved JFK and so did my aunts and uncles. Their democratic party was the party of the working man, it was anti-communist and valued free speech. I know if they were alive today they would be appalled at the current crop of democrats and would be supporting President Trump. They were devout Catholics (not CINOs) and pro-life. The whole trans movement would have shocked them to their core, and the sight of an abortion van would have been inconceivable to them. The JFK democratic party is dead. And I pray that the Harris-Walz ticket loses resoundingly.

And the democrats foolishly thought they could tie President Trump up in court and with fake convictions...it has made him stronger...even the attempt on his life didn't work for them...and the FBI hiding the shooter's history and phones won't help...the truth is surfacing each day...and BTW...why suddenly is the shooter cremated. what are you hiding Wray?

The long-time strategy of the Democratic Socialists of America was for its members to run in Democrat primaries and, once enough DSA members had been elected to office as Democrats, take over the Democrat Party and eventually the US government. With that control, they would throw off the masks and "fundametally transform America" into a socialist country governed in accordance with hard-left marxist theory. DSA succeeded in taking over the Democrat Party, and elected one if its own as President in 2008. But instead of socialism, they gave us full blown Corporatist Fascism. No doubt there are many Democrats who are heartsick at what has happened to their party and would feel more comfortable in a worker-oriented Republican Party. But be careful of them. Vet them. I expect many of them are just soft socialists who were left behind by the rabid DSA marxists. We don't need those.

There was a time when many, possibly most, democrat party supporters were pro-American even if they disagreed on some details with republican party supporters. While I disagreed with much of JFK's policies, I think he did want to make the country better, not destroy it. If the remnant of "real" democrats want to save their party, they would be well advised to vote for President Trump this November. This vote will not be for a political party - it will be for or against the Republic itself. If President Trump and RFK Jr. campaign together - for the United States of America - I take it as a mark of character in both men. MAGA. !!

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. officially lost his U.S. Secret Service (USSS) protection on Monday, just days after his withdrawal from the 2024 presidential race. Kennedy's press secretary confirmed the change in a statement to CBS News. Kennedy had gone through a long process to receive USSS protection in the first place, with his initial requests being denied earlier in the cycle. It was not until the assassination attempt against former President Donald Trump in July that President Biden ordered that Kennedy receive Secret Service protection as well.

Europe is experiencing a crisis evidenced by a “wave of populism” that threatens European universality, Pope Francis warned Saturday. In a message to participants in the European Alpbach Forum, an Austrian nonprofit foundation advocating a strong and democratic Europe, the pontiff said that Europe is “experiencing a time of crisis,” a time “in which various populist movements are enjoying great popularity.” In Europe, “as a result of this ‘wave’ of populism, some ideals have vanished and some principles, with regard to behavior towards the weaker members of society, have been sidelined,” he added.

What's good for the goose is good for the gander. Because the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals upheld California outlawing talk therapy for minors with unwanted same-sex attraction, it must likewise uphold Idaho's ban on invasive and potentially irreversible medical treatments to make gender-confused minors resemble the opposite sex, the Gem State's outside lawyer told a three-judge panel Thursday. Alliance Defending Freedom senior counsel John Bursch invoked the 2013 Pickup precedent, celebrated at the time by LGBTQ activists for finding that California's SB 1172 does not violate the "fundamental parental right to make important medical decisions for their children"

The Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Illinois, offered a "gender-neutral prayer room" with Islamic prayer mats and also appears to have repurposed several women's rooms at the venue as "all-gender." According to a DNC map of the convention at Chicago's United Center, one "all-gender restroom" is on each of the four levels of the arena that serves as home to the Chicago Bulls. However, a different map of the venue suggests they are typically women's restrooms. Other bathroom facilities that circle the arena are grouped in the typical fashion of men's and women's restrooms.

They aren't selling themselves well. If you think this is good, I've got sour news for you. This is the kind of thing that spurs Democrats into action.

That comes after her campaign spent weeks insisting that any deviation from the Biden-negotiated event would represent cowardice on the part of Donald Trump. According to Politico, Harris wants to do away with the muted mics seen in the CNN debate so that the candidates can have "uncensored" exchanges. The holdup? Whether or not the candidates’ microphones will be muted when it isn’t their turn to speak. Back when President JOE BIDEN was still running for reelection, his campaign came to an agreement

Zuckerberg made the admission in a letter to House Judiciary Committee Chairman Jim Jordan (R-OH) this week in which he said that his goal moving forward was to “be neutral and not play a role one way or another” for either any political party or ideology. He said he doesn’t even want the appearance of playing a role and will not be making political contributions.

From curbside abortions to gender-neutral prayer rooms, so much insane stuff unfolded at the 2024 Democratic National Convention. One of these abhorrent moments apparently snuck under the radar — until now. It turns out that a top Kamala Harris surrogate bashed the Bill of Rights as "that little piece of paper" and urged Democrats to "reimagine democracy" on Day 1 of the DNC. Kelley Robinson, president of the far-left Human Rights Campaign (HRC) and a prominent supporter of Kamala Harris, made the appalling comments during a daytime session addressing "how defeating Donald Trump and the Project 2025 agenda rests on the engagement of the LGBTQ+ community." "We can't just worry about protecting democracy.

People are funny about racoons. These flea-bitten, sometimes rabid, garbage-eating vermin with no visible means of support, elicit, in some people, feelings of love. A woman in Canada was feeding dozens every day. When she died – of cancer, not rabies – her dying request to her husband was that he continue to feed the racoons. He has done so. And they’ve been fruitful, or at least they’ve multiplied. A woman in Indiana feeds 25 or more a day. She buys 50-pound bags of dog food for them. A woman in Colorado found what she called “a baby racoon.” She took it home and adopted it.
