Senator-elect Adam Schiff (D-CA) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that President-elect Donald Trump wanted to use the U.S. military against him. Host Jake Tapper said, “President-elect Trump repeatedly called you the enemy from within. You and Speaker Pelosi specifically. And he said this about his enemies from within. Take a listen. On Fox News, Trump said, “I think the bigger problem are the people from within. We have some very bad people. We have some sick people, radical left lunatics, and I think they’re the and it should be very easily handled by, if necessary, by National Guard or if really necessary, by the military

Like we care, Schiff. We all know you and your fellow criminals are screaming whatever against PDT to make US think you're concerned about America and the American people, when it's your own butts you're concerned about. Turn yourself in and admit your crimes. You might get to sleeping at night again once you're in prison. I can't guarantee it though.

What a whiney weasel this creep is. It is highly unlikely Trump would waste any of the Military's time on such a loser. The court's? That's a different story. Shiffty better not have anything illegal in his past. I suspect people will be watching. You also have to ask yourself how long CNN will be entertaining such losers on the air. This is a variation of the hysterical "Trump is Hitler!" and if CNN wants a chance at staying alive as a network, they are going to have to drop this garbage, and their "reporters" that think it is worth polluting the airwaves with.

As usual, the lunatic enemies of America First take a Trump comment totally out of context and blow it up as if it is significant. Schiff and Tapper are two of the worst offenders. Trump was not referring to Schiff but to the violent rioters who are used by the globalist/leftist cabal to attack American society--they are the violent radicals to whom Trump was referring, as anyone using a spark of intelligence would realize. But I wouldn't be upset if Schiff found himself on the receiving end of a criminal prosecution and punishment.

So according to the majority of the California electorate, Schiff is the best Californian to represent that State in the US Senate? Give us a break! If Trump sent the US military to take Schiff out it would not take more than a Mess Kit Repair Platoon to successfully handle that mission. It’s a lot more likely that Trump will simply ignore Schiff and his obvious untruths.

Julie Roginsky made the claim on CNN’s “NewsNight” late Monday — just hours after Trump confirmed he would utilize “military assets” to help boot illegal migrants from the US after he returns to the White House early next year. “I promise you with every fiber of my being, because I’ll probably be one of those people, that if anyone comes for these people and tries to drag them out by force, there will be protests,” said Roginsky,

Leftwing “Morning Joe” hosts and vicious Donald Trump critics Joe Scarborough and Mika Brzezinski revealed Monday they had a “personal” sit-down with the president-elect in Florida to “restart communications” — after conceding that voters overwhelmingly made their choice. The MSNBC co-hosts, who have repeatedly bashed the Republican on-air over the years, said they had a face-to-face with Trump at his Mar-a-Lago estate on Friday — their first meeting in seven years — after reaching out in the wake of his election win. “Five years of political warfare has deeply divided Washington and the country.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that “America deserves better” than President-elect Donald Trump’s cabinet picks. Host Kristen Welker said, “I want to ask you now about that report that the House Ethics committee was set to vote on to release into former Congressman Matt Gaetz, of course, President-elect Trump’s pick to be the next attorney general. Speaker Johnson is now saying that the report should not be released. What’s your reaction to what Speaker Johnson is saying?” Jeffries said, “Of course, it should be released. And that’s not just Democrats saying that. You have repeatedly seen Senate Republicans

It’s high time to shatter the myth of Nancy Pelosi as a master strategist. Nobody deserves more blame than the ridiculously self-titled “speaker emerita” for the Democrats’ $1 billion electoral collapse. Under her ruthless leadership, her party lost the White House, the House, the Senate and the popular vote. You can’t say that enough. Voters rejected the Dems coast to coast, even in Pelosi’s deepest-blue home city of San Francisco, which saw a 7-point swing to Donald Trump. She’s the only speaker in history to have lost control of the House twice. She’s finished.

Leftists have a master plan to ensure that President-elect Donald Trump’s economy tanks: They are not going to buy anything. Leftists across the country are still reeling from Trump’s historic comeback victory, which saw him sweeping all seven swing states, garnering 312 electoral votes and also winning the popular vote after making historic gains in traditionally blue areas. There was a sizable shift in the electorate and a clear mandate for change, but some leftists ardently disagree and have a plan to tank what everyone anticipates to be a strong economy under Trump’s leadership.

Gaetz has repeatedly denied any wrongdoing. Leppard said it was his client’s testimony that she did not believe Gaetz knew at the time that her friend was underage.

It should not come as a surprise to see the same methods deployed against President Trump in 2024 that were used by the FBI in 2016. The difference is now that President Trump understands the full power of his office in the security clearance process and that he doesn’t need the FBI. In 2016 the FBI used their power to conduct security clearances as a tool to stall and block President Trump appointments. (snip)However, in 2024 President-Elect Trump and his transition team have already taken a different approach.

The one person who knew that the Joe Biden presidency was something other than “Obama’s third term” was Barack Obama. If Obama had any illusions about his control over events, he was rudely disabused of them on July 21, 2024. This was the Sunday on which Biden dropped out of the presidential race and endorsed Kamala Harris. The announcements caught Obama flatfooted. Biden had not consulted with his former boss either on his decision to drop out nor on his decision to endorse Harris. At 12:46 p.m. EDT, Biden posted on X his intention to withdraw.
