    Trump Calls CNN’s Kaitlan Collins a “Nasty Person” and the Crowd Goes Wild! (VIDEO)

    Trump appeared for a CNN town hall event on Wednesday evening and he’s knocking it out of the park.
    CNN’s Kaitlan Collins moderated the town hall.
    CNN is likely regretting their decision to put Trump in the ring with Kaitlan Collins.
    Trump held his own, answered her ‘gotcha’ questions brilliantly and captivated the audience.
    President Trump won tonight.
    At one point Kaitlan Collins asked Trump about the classified documents stored at Mar-a-Lago.
    Trump had every right to store presidential records at Mar-a-Lago.
    Kaitlan Collins repeatedly asked Trump about his classified documents: “I would like for you to answer the question. That’s what I asked it.”
    Trump body slammed her: “You’re a nasty person! I’ll tell ya!”
    The crowd went wild!

    President Trump Wednesday evening appeared on CNN for a live town hall event.
    CNN’s Kaitlan Collins moderated the town hall.
    Trump was asked why Americans should put him back in the White House.
    “You still have not publicly acknowledged the 2020 election results…” Collins said.
    “When you look at what happened during that election, unless you’re a very stupid person you see what happened… It was a rigged election,” Trump said.
    Trump also said we need to have voter ID, paper ballots and Election Day, not election month.
    “We should have voter ID, we should have one-day votes, we should paper ballots instead of these mail-in votes,” Trump said.

  • During Fox Earnings Call, CEO Shares How Tucker Ouster Will Change Prime-Time Strategy

    During Fox Earnings Call, CEO Shares How Tucker Ouster Will Change Prime-Time Strategy

    Fox Corporation CEO Lachlan Murdoch said his company’s decision to oust ratings juggernaut Tucker Carlson will not affect how Fox News approaches its prime-time lineup in the future.
    Murdoch signaled the company will instead seek a replacement for him and said its strategy in previous years has worked.
    The comments were made during Tuesday’s quarterly earnings call when Fox divulged that it had posted a loss of $50 million during the fiscal third quarter of 2023.
    The loss was blamed on the company’s decision to settle a defamation lawsuit with Dominion Voting Systems for $787 million.
    Murdoch was also forced to address Fox’s decision to part ways with Carlson, who was the network’s most-watched anchor until his abrupt firing. The heir to the Murdoch empire did not reveal the company’s reason for axing Carlson.
    During a question-and-answer portion of the call with investors, Robert Fishman of MoffettNathanson asked about plans for programming at a post-Carlson Fox News.
    “Can you discuss whether the departure of Tucker Carlson will lead to changes in the prime-time programming strategy and then potential opportunities for more national advertising?” Fishman asked, according to a transcript of the call.
    “As regards to our programming strategy in prime time, there’s no change to our programming strategy at Fox News,” Murdoch said.
    “It’s obviously a successful strategy. And as always, we are adjusting our programming and our lineup, and that’s what we continue to do.”
    Murdoch concluded, “We are pleased with the strength of the advertising demand throughout our schedule, but particularly prime time.”
    Carlson was not mentioned again during the conference call.
    The former host’s 8 p.m. Eastern time slot has struggled to compete with MSNBC and CNN in the 25 to 54 demographic sought after by advertisers in the two weeks since he was terminated without explanation.
    Fill-in hosts Brian Kilmeade, Lawrence Jones and Kayleigh McEnany have been unable to bring in the sizable audience that tuned in regularly for Carlson.
    Carlson announced on Tuesday that he would relaunch his show on Twitter in a video in which he said the media’s coverage is often laden with “the stealthiest and most insidious” lies.

    The video was seen by over 22 million people in less than 24 hours. The tweet containing the video garnered 105 million views.
    Carlson averaged just over 3 million viewers on any given night at Fox News.

  • Media Outlets in Melt Down Mode After Tucker Carlson’s Big Announcement

    Media Outlets in Melt Down Mode After Tucker Carlson’s Big Announcement

    To be completely and utterly fair (ironically unlike the establishment media) it’s hard to blame the media for throwing this visceral of a temper tantrum for all to see.
    After all, with one swift announcement on Tuesday, former Fox News host Tucker Carlson re-shaped the media landscape by announcing that he would be launching his own show on… Twitter.
    That’s right, despite all of the rumors swirling about what could be Carlson’s next move, it appears that he will not be going to a competitor or moderating a GOP debate (this one is still on the table.)
    Instead, Carlson will continue to do what he’s clearly the best at — bring hard-hitting conservative news to the masses, but this time, on his own.
    Twitter head honcho Elon Musk has already made it abundantly clear Carlson would be subjected to the same rules and regulations of any other content creator on the platform.
    Below, you can see Musk’s tweet and the original announcement from Carlson:

    On this platform, unlike the one-way street of broadcast, people are able to interact, critique and refute whatever is said.
    And, of course, anything misleading will get @CommunityNotes.
    I also want to be clear that we have not signed a deal of any kind whatsoever. Tucker is… https://t.co/0TMjuYnKUp
    — Elon Musk (@elonmusk) May 9, 2023

    In other words: No preferential treatment, no lucrative deal, no special exceptions.
    Any fair-minded individual should be able to see that and accept it for what it is: Tucker Carlson felt that Fox News needed him more than he needed Fox News, and bet on himself as an independent content creator.
    Carlson is betting on himself, a richly American ethos dating back to the Mayflower.
    Of course, the establishment media landscape is not full of fair-minded individuals. Quite the opposite in fact.
    Take a look at this list of headlines covering Carlson’s seismic announcement and try not to imagine the list being written by an angry 12-year-old:

    “Tucker Carlson’s new Twitter show could spell doom for Elon Musk” wrote Business Insider.
    Semafor basically called Carlson’s new show a death knell for Twitter due to fleeing advertisers, not unlike Business Insider.
    Despite not a single second of an episode airing yet, leftist rag The New Republic is already calling Carlson’s show “racist.”
    Bloomberg accused Twitter of tilting to the right.

    Even the less sensational articles can’t help themselves when it comes to, well, sensationalism. The New York Times came out guns blazing, no puns intended, and asked, “Is Tucker Carlson Too Hot for Twitter to Handle?”
    The answer to that, based on the over 100 million views Carlson’s announcement tweet has already garnered, is clearly “no.”
    So why exactly the media freak-out if Carlson’s new Twitter venture is just doomed to crash and burn both his new show and the social media platform?
    In short: The alternative scenario to all that doom and gloom is downright petrifying for the establishment media.
    Because what is the alternative? Carlson’s show could be a massive success and helps transform Twitter as the place for open debate on the cultural and societal issues afflicting the world.
    That’s one key advantage that Carlson has that his former digs didn’t — interaction.
    Whether it’s CNN or Fox News, cable news has always been about telling its audience what the networks think the audience wants to hear.
    And therein lies some of the power cable news has always wielded.
    People are wising up to that one-way street of information and realizing how dangerous (and wrong) it can be.
    If Carlson can succeed in this new venture, and that’s an admittedly big “if” given the lack of precedence, it would prove the old adage of the television network making the stars, and not the other way around, simply doesn’t hold true anymore.
    Many, many viewers already feel that establishment media news isn’t for them anymore, and have tuned out in droves regardless of the political leanings of said establishment media network.
    If network stars, hosts and pundits also feel that the establishment news isn’t for them anymore, a la Carlson since his ouster?
    All those doom and gloom predictions may dredge back up — and not for Carlson’s new Twitter show.

    Now, Hidalgo Police Chief Romeo Rodriguez claimed the gunfire heard near Pharr Bridge came from the drill.
    He said that U.S. Customs and Border Protection and local law police were conducting drills near the Pharr-Reynosa International Bridge with dummy rounds and inert grenades, according to Valley Central.
    Customs and Border Protection responded to Valley Central’s inquiry and confirmed the exercise took place on Wednesday.
    Rodriguez stated that there was a police investigation taking place on the Mexican side of the border, where individuals who were suspected to be affiliated with the cartel were being pursued.
    Three of the suspects were killed and three to five vehicles were seized, Rodriguez said, after Mexican authorities opened fire on them multiple times.
    According to Mirror.co.uk, “Local reports suggest the clashes broke out after authorities allegedly arrested ‘La Pawa’, the regional leader of the criminal group Los Zetas.”

  • Not One ‘Journalist’ Asks Joe Biden About Comer’s Evidence of Bribery Scheme at Airport Gaggle – But Santos Gets a Mention! (VIDEO)

    Not One ‘Journalist’ Asks Joe Biden About Comer’s Evidence of Bribery Scheme at Airport Gaggle – But Santos Gets a Mention! (VIDEO)

    Not one so-called ‘journalist’ asked Joe Biden about Comer’s evidence of a bribery scheme involving a foreign national during Wednesday’s airport gaggle.
    Biden stopped to chat with reporters at Westchester County Airport in White Plains, New York after he delivered remarks at SUNY Westchester Community College.
    Reporters asked Biden about the debt ceiling, Title 42 expiring, his calls with Xi Jinping and…George Santos!
    Not one reporter asked Joe Biden about the bombshell evidence provided by House Oversight Chairman James Comer.
    A hack reporter asked Joe Biden if Rep. Santos should be expelled from Congress after his Justice Department charged the lawmaker with 13 criminal counts.
    According to the indictment reviewed by The Gateway Pundit, Santos was overcharged by zealous government prosecutors.
    Meanwhile Joe Biden received more than $10 million from foreign nationals.
    “Joe Biden’s son. Joe Biden’s brother. Joe Biden’s brother’s wife. Hunter Biden’s girlfriend/Beau Biden’s widow, Hunter Biden’s ex-wife. Hunter Biden’s current wife. And 3 children of the president’s son and the president’s brother. So we’re talking about grandchildren – a grandchild. That’s odd. Most people that work hard every day a grandchild doesn’t get a wire from a foreign national,” Comer said.
    James Comer said the Biden family received over $10 million from foreign nationals while Joe Biden was Vice President.
    The countries involved directly correlated with Joe Biden’s work as Vice President.
    This is textbook money laundering and influence peddling.
    This is why the Justice Department indicted Santos this week.
    To distract from Joe Biden’s life of crimes!
    Biden said it’s for Congress to decide whether Santos is expelled.

    The House Oversight Committee said the FBI is failing to comply with a subpoena deadline.
    Chairman Comer and Senator Grassley said the FBI is withholding an unclassified FD-1023 form that describes the criminal scheme involving Joe Biden and a foreign national.
    “Based on whistleblower disclosures, the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigation possess an unclassified FD-1023 form that describes an alleged criminal scheme involving then-Vice President Biden and a foreign national relating to the exchange of money for policy decisions. It has been alleged that the document includes a precise description of how the alleged criminal scheme was employed as well as its purpose.” the Oversight Committee said.
    “It’s clear from the FBI’s response that the unclassified record the Oversight Committee subpoenaed exists, but they are refusing to provide it to the Committee. We’ve asked the FBI to not only provide this record, but to also inform us what it did to investigate these allegations. The FBI has failed to do both. The FBI’s position is ‘trust, but you aren’t allowed to verify.’ That is unacceptable. We plan to follow up with the FBI and expect compliance with the subpoena,” said Chairman Comer.

    The FBI failed to produce the subpoenaed FBI generated FD-1023 record that allegedly details a bribery scheme involving then-VP Biden and a foreign national.

  • Do Federal Election Commission Policies & Website Facilitate Money Laundering?

    Do Federal Election Commission Policies & Website Facilitate Money Laundering?

    This article originally appeared on Bill Bruch Substack and was republished with permission.
    This is a continuation of my April 27 Substack article “More Ways They are Stealing Our Elections,” which gives specific examples showing the Federal Election Commission website (fec.gov) past years’ archived, downloaded, campaign finance donor data, changing and/or being purged on a regular basis.
    This is problematic and the issues remain. If you are entering data into the fec.gov website using the exact same parameter fields to check on past years’ (2017-2022) campaign donor information, you should not see archived data constantly changing.
    A system like this is ripe for manipulation and fraud. It lends itself to foster and allow for potential election interference, election tampering, electioneering, and the concealment of money laundering so that oligarchs can stay in power.
    MORE EVIDENCE: Over the last several weeks, archived past years’ campaign donor contributions (using all identical filters) continues to change. E.g., between May 7 and May 8 total individual contributions dropped by 833,000, May 9 they increased by 1,279,000, May 10 they decreased by 1,936,000 (screenshots below):

    Who or what is changing/purging the FEC database campaign contributions in years 2017-2022? There is no sound reason why campaign donor data for past years should be changing at all, much less changing so frequently, and by such large amounts.
    Who is interfering with campaign finance data and our elections? Are the actual campaign donors giving permission for this to occur to their donations? How many of these transactions are donor identity theft and fraudulent donations?
    IS THIS MORE EVIDENCE THAT SOMEONE IS USING THE FEC.GOV DATABASE FRAUDULENTLY?
    MORE PROOF: On April 18 and May 5, 2023, a citizen researcher, using all identical filters, downloaded (exported) numerous campaign contributions that show unexplained changes in data.
    We are on to them, and now this is being documented and tracked!
    USING THE EXACT SAME FILTERS between 01/08/17 – 12-31-22 a female Evansville, Indiana donor’s contributions dropped from 8,438 to 1,122. From 01/08/17 – 11/13/22 (NOTE: 6 WEEKS OF DATA MISSING) her ActBlue contributions dropped from 5,437 to 0. Hmm…
    See the spreadsheet below (ActBlue Count / % of ActBlue Contributions).

    WE HAVE CAMPAIGN FINANCE DATA RECEIPTS: Why would 5,437 ActBlue donations completely vaporize overnight from past years’ archived data?
    Are these donations fraudulent?
    Are criminals covering their tracks by manipulating data in the FEC database?
    James O’ Keefe (OMG) and others are finding (by going to the addresses of the donors and asking) that these donors and/or donations may not even be the real donors, but victim “Smurf Money-Mules” whose identities are being stolen, i.e., donor’s name being used fraudulently.
    The FEC donor data changes show clear data manipulation, their financial contribution amounts and their frequency of donations are changing multiple times for individual donors on a regular basis for past years…
    It appears that this is intentional.
    These changes should not be happening.
    Why is the physical FEC data changing?
    Is this data manipulation being allowed by the FEC to facilitate money laundering?
    What is going on with a live database system like this? Shouldn’t archived data numbers be locked in? Who are making these changes? Why are these huge discrepancies happening so frequently? Why are they allowed to exist?
    Where is the accountability, quality control standards and oversight?
    We are being told by FEC workers that the fec.gov website database allows for political action committees (PACs), political campaigns, political organizations and candidates to directly upload their donor information automatically to the site and the FEC DOES NOT CHECK OR VERIFY THE ACCURACY OF THE INFORMATION ONCE UPLOADED TO THE SITE.
    This is a huge problem, especially given that a PAC like ActBlue DOES NOT verify up to 55% of their donors’ online credit card transactions, and DOES NOT require credit card CVC numbers to donate.
    When asking FEC officials how examples like the aforementioned are possible, they have no answers or explanations and just say it is the campaign’s data, not our data, and if a problem exists then we need to file a formal complaint with the FEC.
    It very much appears that the FEC policies, database and software program is set up perfectly to facilitate money laundering.
    It would be hard to imagine that criminals have not been taking advantage of these vulnerabilities for decades.
    Are paid bad actors covering their tracks by manipulating data in the FEC database?
    Is this similar in nature as to how the election fraud cartel powers that be are manipulating the voter database elections rolls? Or how the voter rolls are being manipulated to take advantage of mail-in voting?
    The evidence says that these are campaign finance law violations that facilitate money laundering. The crime is that someone or something is changing and manipulating official FEC historical campaign finance data.
    The way campaign donation money is raised and spent plays a large part in who wins and who loses elections.
    So if the FEC policies allow fraudulent donations, then what about the origin of the donation???
    George Soros and other liberal billionaires have given millions to Left-wing groups whose alumni now fill crucial roles at the Federal Trade Commission (FTC).
    Just how corrupt is the Administrative State?
    Are bad actors and foreign agents taking advantage of the FEC vulnerabilities to control and swing elections?
    If indeed criminals are exploiting and using the vulnerabilities of the FEC database to facilitate fraud and money laundering, we need full forensic audits of the entire fec.gov website and database.
    POSSIBLE SOLUTIONS:

    Continue to identify and document archived data changes and potential donor “Smurf” Money-Mule victims via the fec.gov website (make sure all filters and search parameters are consistent).
    Pursue and track ALL avenues for potential resolution in these matters.
    File Formal FEC Complaints – Email: Glen@wethegoverned.com.
    More citizen grassroots activists to take up this cause.
    Congressional Investigations and Subpoenas.
    The proper and necessary investigatory agency / agencies to do thorough and comprehensive forensic audits of the FEC data and filings. This may reveal or prevent RICO crimes.
    New FEC procedures, polices and protocols to STOP fraud and abuse, campaign finance law violations, donor identity theft, money laundering, and election interference.
    Criminals to be severely prosecuted!

    The FEC is a taxpayer funded government agency. Until Congress is ready with subpoenas, perhaps Congress should contact the U.S. Government Accountable Office (GAO), for an investigation? The GAO has jurisdiction and oversight over the FEC. Their job is to examine how taxpayer dollars are spent and provide the public, Congress and federal agencies with objective, fact-based information to work more efficiently.
    Also, the Office of the Inspector General (OIG) has authority to investigate matters that concern FEC personnel, programs, operations, and funds, so as to prevent and detect fraud, waste, abuse, mismanagement, and related misconduct. OIG Fraud Complaints and Hotline
    If you have any idea as to how this is happening, or any plausible explanations, your feedback and comments are much appreciated.

    Dianne Feinstein Returns to Senate in Wheelchair, ‘Experiencing Vision/Balance Impairments’ (VIDEO)

    89-year-old Dianne Feinstein on Wednesday returned to the senate in a wheelchair.
    Feinstein will turn 90 next month.
    Democrat Senator Dianne Feinstein finally returned to the senate after a 3-month absence due to shingles.
    “Even though I’ve made significant progress and was able to return to Washington, I’m still experiencing some side effects from the shingles virus,” Feinstein said. “My doctors have advised me to work a lighter schedule as I return to the Senate. I’m hopeful those issues will subside as I continue to recover.”
    Senator Schumer escorted Feinstein.
    Feinstein’s office said she is experiencing vision and balance impairments.

    NBC News reported:
    Sen. Dianne Feinstein, D-Calif., cast her first two votes on the Senate floor on Wednesday afternoon following a nearly three-month absence due to health issues.
    Upon her arrival on Capitol Hill, she was assisted into a wheelchair and greeted by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y.
    Feinstein told reporters that she feels “much better,” but she did not answer questions about why she decided to return or respond to calls from critics to resign.
    The two votes were the first that Feinstein had cast since Feb. 16. She missed two votes that were held earlier Wednesday before her arrival — adding to the 91 floor votes she missed while she recovered from shingles, according to an NBC News tally.
    In a statement released Wednesday afternoon, Feinstein said that she is back in Washington but will be working a “lighter schedule” as she resumes her duties.
