JD Vance Said That “Psychos” are a “Fact of Life” — Not “School Shootings”
Hordes of Democrats and media outlets are claiming that JD Vance said “school shootings are a ‘fact of life’.”
IN FACT, Vance said that “psychos” who “want to make headlines” are a “fact of life” — not “school shootings.”
He then immediately said, “We have got to bolster security at our schools.”
Democrats and the media are distorting Vance’s words, just like they routinely do to Trump.

Does the Media Lie About Donald Trump?
CNN’s Dana Bash claims that the media doesn’t lie about Donald Trump and just lets “him speak for himself.” Here’s nine prime examples of the media mutilating Trump’s words.

In reality, Trump used the word “animals” to describe murderous illegal aliens like MS-13 gang members — not immigrants in general: https://rumble.com/v4luur5-nine-times-the-media-demonized-trump-by-quoting-him-out-of-context.html?start=69

In reality, Trump used the term “bloodbath” to describe what four more years of Biden’s policies would do to the United States, particularly to the auto industry: https://rumble.com/v578tze-the-bloodbath-hoax.html

4) The media widely reported that Trump said he would use the FBI and the DOJ to go after his political opponents: https://www.google.com/search?q=Trump+FBI++DOJ+political+opponents&newwindow=1&sca_esv=77d6260ac296d3e1&sca_upv=1&biw=1260&bih=1011&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F21%2F2017%2Ccd_max%3A9%2F2%2F2024&tbm=nws&ei=o_rWZt23MtGgkPIP5I7vaQ&ved=0ahUKEwidldmP3aaIAxVREEQIHWTHOw0Q4dUDCA4&uact=5&oq=Trump+FBI++DOJ+political+opponents&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LW5ld3MiIlRydW1wIEZCSSAgRE9KIHBvbGl0aWNhbCBvcHBvbmVudHNIjJEDUPjLAlifjANwAXgAkAEAmAFqoAHoA6oBAzcuMbgBA8gBAPgBAvgBAZgCAKACAJgDAIgGAZIHAKAH0AQ&sclient=gws-wiz-news

CNN’s Anderson Cooper took it another step further by saying that Trump “seems to think that dominating black people, dominating peaceful protesters is law and order”: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tMrImA2DPy8
In reality, Trump stated he is an “ally of all peaceful protesters” and that governors have a duty to protect “innocent people” from “professional anarchists, violent mobs, arsonists, looters”: https://www.justfactsdaily.com/media-outlets-stir-racial-strife-slander-trump
6) The media widely reported that Trump encouraged the Capitol Hill riot by urging his supporters to “fight like hell”: https://www.google.com/search?q=Trump+%E2%80%9Cfight+like+hell%E2%80%9D&newwindow=1&sca_esv=77d6260ac296d3e1&sca_upv=1&biw=1260&bih=1011&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F21%2F2017%2Ccd_max%3A9%2F2%2F2024&tbm=nws&ei=tvvWZo_zO_qwur8P6OyqyAE&ved=0ahUKEwiPpvOS3qaIAxV6mO4BHWi2ChkQ4dUDCA4&oq=Trump+%E2%80%9Cfight+like+hell%E2%80%9D&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LW5ld3MiG1RydW1wIOKAnGZpZ2h0IGxpa2UgaGVsbOKAnUiWalD5DVj5HHAAeACQAQCYAT6gAdECqgEBN7gBDMgBAPgBAfgBApgCAqACbsICCxAAGIAEGJECGIoFwgIUEAAYgAQYkQIYsQMYgwEYxwMYigXCAggQABiABBixA8ICBRAAGIAEwgIREAAYgAQYsQMYgwEYxwMYigXCAgsQABiABBixAxiDAcICDhAAGIAEGLEDGIMBGMcDmAMAiAYBkgcBMqAHzg0&sclient=gws-wiz-news
In reality, Trump told his supporters to march “over to the Capitol building to peacefully and patriotically make your voices heard”: https://www.justfactsdaily.com/the-new-york-times-brazenly-false-fact-check-about-trumps-impeachment-trial
7) The media widely reported that Trump vowed to “be a dictator on day one”: https://www.google.com/search?q=Trump+dictator+on+day+one&newwindow=1&sca_esv=77d6260ac296d3e1&sca_upv=1&biw=1260&bih=1011&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F21%2F2017%2Ccd_max%3A9%2F2%2F2024&tbm=nws&ei=8vvWZuuTO4zgkPIPvI7J6A4&ved=0ahUKEwjr1MCv3qaIAxUMMEQIHTxHEu0Q4dUDCA4&uact=5&oq=Trump+dictator+on+day+one&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LW5ld3MiGVRydW1wIGRpY3RhdG9yIG9uIGRheSBvbmVIoDJQ2RtY2RtwAngAkAEAmAFPoAGzAaoBATO4AQPIAQD4AQL4AQGYAgCgAgCYAwCIBgGSBwCgB94B&sclient=gws-wiz-news
IN FACT, Trump said he is “NOT going to be a dictator” “except for day one” to “close the border” and “drill, drill, drill.” The interviewer replied, “That sounds to me that you’re going back to the policies when you were president,” and Trump said, “That’s exactly right”: https://rumble.com/v3zwrgs-trump-promises-not-to-be-a-dictator-except-for-day-one-.html
8) The media widely reported that Trump called for Russia to hack Hillary Clinton’s emails: https://www.google.com/search?q=Trump+Russia+to+hack+Hillary+Clinton%E2%80%99s+emails&newwindow=1&sca_esv=77d6260ac296d3e1&sca_upv=1&biw=1260&bih=1011&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F21%2F2017%2Ccd_max%3A9%2F2%2F2024&tbm=nws&ei=SPzWZoOOHe3ZkPIPgPKOmAU&ved=0ahUKEwiD0qPY3qaIAxXtLEQIHQC5A1MQ4dUDCA4&uact=5&oq=Trump+Russia+to+hack+Hillary+Clinton%E2%80%99s+emails&gs_lp=Egxnd3Mtd2l6LW5ld3MiL1RydW1wIFJ1c3NpYSB0byBoYWNrIEhpbGxhcnkgQ2xpbnRvbuKAmXMgZW1haWxzSJciUNEUWNEUcAB4AJABAJgBQ6ABpwGqAQEzuAEDyAEA-AEC-AEBmAIAoAIAmAMAiAYBkgcAoAfeAQ&sclient=gws-wiz-news
In reality, Trump repeatedly stated that China, Russia, or an independent hacker has probably ALREADY hacked Clinton’s illegal email server, and if they did, they should release the 33,000 emails that Clinton destroyed after she received a subpoena for them: https://rumble.com/v2uoksw-full-context-of-trumps-remarks-about-hillary-clintons-emails-and-russia.html
9) The media widely reported that Trump told Republicans to vote against a border security bill because he didn’t want the crisis fixed while Biden was president:

In reality, the bill was loaded with loopholes that permit & reward illegal immigration: https://x.com/ChrisMurphyCT/status/1754292302690812129
Trump wrote that he opposes the bill because it “only gives Shutdown Authority after 5000 Encounters a day, when we already have the right to CLOSE THE BORDER NOW, which must be done”: https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111879340091575646

Biden Denounces People “Trying to Push Me Out of the Race”
Two weeks before he was undemocratically forced out of the race, Biden angrily stated, “You voted for me to be your nominee! No one else.” “Despite that, some folks don’t seem to care who you voted for” and are “trying to push me out of the race.”

Biden Cognitive Decline, 2020-2024
Biden & company misled the public for years about his cognitive decline. His campaign only ended after his mental decay was undeniable, powerbrokers began pushing him out of the race, and his polls became bleak in battleground states.

The “Bloodbath” Hoax
Trump didn’t use the term “bloodbath” as a call to arms but to describe the effects of Biden’s policies, especially on the auto industry.

Illegal Immigrants Commit Serious, Imprisonable Crimes at Much Higher Rates Than Americans
The claim that illegal immigrants commit crimes at a lower rate than Americans is based on fatally flawed studies laced with these five defects:
1) They use blatantly dishonest measures to calculate crime rates, like dividing the number of NON-CITIZENS in prison by the TOTAL number of ALL immigrants.
2) They fail to account for the fact that most criminals are repeat offenders, and the U.S. deports 150,000 non-citizen criminal convicts per year, thus reducing the number who remain in the U.S.
3) They mix together illegal and legal immigrants, the latter of which must pass a criminal background check to immigrate and are therefore much more law-abiding than the general public.
4) They fail to account for the fact that racial minorities who commit violent crimes in the U.S. are significantly less likely to be caught than white violent criminals.
5) They fail to account for the fact that the vast bulk of illegal immigrants commit identity fraud and/or tax evasion but are rarely prosecuted for these crimes, even though they are federal felonies punishable by up to five years in prison.

Blame for the Border Crisis
Using a propaganda technique called “projection,” ABC News and many other media outlets are blaming Trump & the Republicans for the massive flood of illegal immigration caused by Biden & the Democrats.
SOURCES:
In a recent episode of ABC’s World News Tonight, anchor David Muir reported, “For the first time in years, Republicans and Democrats have come up with a bipartisan plan to finally address the border. The other major headline on this late today, the conservative-leaning border patrol union, the officers who patrol the border, endorsing this bipartisan plan. But tonight, the House Speaker saying Republicans in the House are not interested, amid pressure from Donald Trump not to agree to any solution in a presidential election year.
Correspondent Rachel Scott then reported: “Tonight, Senate leaders unveiling the most sweeping border security package in decades. Republican leader Mitch McConnell reminding his party, this is something they wanted for years. [McConnell]: ‘Senate Republicans have insisted, not just for months, but for years, that this urgent crisis demanded action.’ ” https://twitter.com/ABCWorldNews/status/1754701454772945179
99% of Republicans voted for and 100% of Democrats voted the House border security bill passed by Republicans. https://clerk.house.gov/Votes/2023209
The Republican bill would:
• “require DHS to construct at least 900 miles of wall and physical barriers along that border.”
• “limit both the rules of eligibility for aliens to apply for asylum in the United States and the circumstances under which asylum could be granted.”
• “significantly restrict DHS’s ability to grant parole, which permits aliens to temporarily enter the United States.”
• “create new criminal and civil penalties” for people who overstay their visas.
• “require all U.S. employers to use E-Verify, the federal web-based system for confirming eligibility to work.”
https://www.cbo.gov/system/files/2023-05/hr2.pdf
The Democrat-controlled Senate hasn’t taken any action on the bill passed by House Republicans. https://www.congress.gov/bill/118th-congress/house-bill/2/actions
House Republicans offered to negotiate a deal with Senate Democrats by combining their border security bill with aid for Ukraine. https://www.reuters.com/world/us/us-house-vote-republicans-standalone-143-bln-israel-bill-2023-11-02/
A group of 3 Senators spent 4 months behind closed doors crafting the Senate bill.

https://www.newsweek.com/border-bill-was-purposely-hidden-conservative-commentators-rand-paul-1867995
Senators unveiled the bill on Sunday, February 4, 2024.
https://www.cnn.com/2024/02/04/politics/senate-border-foreign-aid-bill/index.html
The Senate bill is 360+ pages long. https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/emergency_national_security_supplemental_bill_text.pdf
Three days after they unveiled the text of the Senate bill, Democrats brought it a vote on February 7. https://ny1.com/nyc/all-boroughs/news/2024/02/07/senate-schumer-ukraine-israel-republicans-democrats-border
ABC claims the Senate bill includes “$20 billion to strengthen the border—hiring new officers and border patrol agents. It includes a trigger mechanism. When migrant apprehensions reach 5,000 a day, the border will automatically shut down. And it makes it harder for migrants to claim asylum, expediting the process to address the backlog.” https://twitter.com/ABCWorldNews/status/1754701454772945179
The Senate bill is rife with legalese, and when Fox News host Bret Baier said to Senator Kyrsten Sinema of AZ (the Independent architect of the act) that it was “painful” to read, she replied, “It was.”
https://www.appropriations.senate.gov/imo/media/doc/emergency_national_security_supplemental_bill_text.pdf#page=214
https://www.realclearpolitics.com/video/2024/02/05/sen_sinema_border_bill_solves_the_crisis_there_is_real_misunderstanding_about_the_border_emergency_authority.html
Senator Chris Murphy of CT (the Democrat architect of the act) spelled out the following loopholes in series of posts on X:
• “The border never closes”
• There is only a “slightly higher asylum screening standard”
• Asylum “claims processed in a non-detained, non-adversarial way”
• “Most asylum seekers can work immediately”
• “brand new right to legal representation for all immigrants”
• “A new pathway to citizenship for Afghan parolees (the Afghan Adjustment Act) and the children of H1B holders”
• “It can only be used for a limited number of days per year. It sunsets in 3 years.”
• “The ports must process a minimum of 1400 claims a day.”
• “Emergency cases that show up in between the ports still need to be accepted”
https://twitter.com/ChrisMurphyCT/status/1754292302690812129
Without reporting any of Murphy’s statements about the loopholes, ABC aired on Good Morning America the following claim from Murphy: “Many Senate Republicans are going to oppose this bill because it’s too effective because Donald Trump is telling them, “No, keep chaos at the border. Don’t solve the problem because that’s good politics for us.” Well, that’s really bad for the country.” https://twitter.com/GMA/status/1754844542635851968
On World News Tonight, Rachel Scott reported, “Trump wants to run on immigration in November, and today called the deal a “great gift to Democrats, and a death wish for the Republican Party.” Now, many top Republicans who wanted a deal are doing an about-face.” https://twitter.com/ABCWorldNews/status/1754701454772945179
In the same post from Trump’ that ABC quoted, Trump wrote that he opposes the bill because it:
• “only gives Shutdown Authority after 5000 Encounters a day, when we already have the right to CLOSE THE BORDER NOW, which must be done”
• “takes the HORRIBLE JOB the Democrats have done on Immigration and the Border, absolves them, and puts it all squarely on the shoulders of Republicans.”
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/posts/111879340091575646
Like ABC News, a wide range of other media outlets reported without evidence that Republicans oppose the bill because it would fix the border crisis:

A longstanding propaganda technique is to falsely accuse others of one’s own misdeeds. This is called projection, and two telltale signs of are quoting people out of context and making baseless assertions about people’s intentions. In the words of scholarly works that detail this strategy:
• Start “by injecting the public with misleading information as if it came from these adversaries.”
• State some “facts” to establish credibility but mix them with “falsehoods” about “intentions and interpretations.”
• Then “slip from the facts, which would demand factual judgment, to moral terrain and to ethical judgment.”

For decades, Democrats have refused to deport the vast bulk of illegal immigrants, allowed them into the nation based on meritless claims of asylum, offered them more welfare, established sanctuary cities and entire states, and promised to make them citizens with full voting rights. https://www.justfacts.com/immigration#illegal_1990
The Biden administration took those policies to another level. https://www.justfacts.com/immigration#illegal_biden
The Biden administration repeatedly insisted the “border is secure” from 2021 through 2023:
https://www.google.com/search?q=%E2%80%9Cborder+is+secure%E2%80%9D&newwindow=1&sca_esv=fea8e79187cfd119&source=lnt&tbs=cdr%3A1%2Ccd_min%3A1%2F1%2F2021%2Ccd_max%3A12%2F31%2F2023&tbm=
Under Biden, illegal immigrant gotaways have risen by 5.7 times, border crossing deaths have grown by 2.5 times, and migrant encounters have skyrocketed to heights that make prior surges look small by comparison. https://www.justfacts.com/immigration#illegal_border
An NBC News poll conducted Jan. 26–30, 2024 found that “Trump has the edge on securing the border and controlling immigration (35 points over Biden).” https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/2024-election/poll-biden-trump-economy-presidential-race-rcna136834
An CBS News poll conducted Jan. 3–5, 2024 found that 68% of U.S. adults “disapprove of the way Joe Biden is handling matters concerning the U.S.-Mexico border.” https://www.scribd.com/document/697109678/cbsnews-20240107-PDF2#1fullscreen=1

Kids in Cages & Migrant Deaths
While accusing Donald Trump of being just like Hitler and Mussolini because he put “children in cages,” Joe Biden’s surrogates are putting children in those same “cages” and hiding the soaring numbers of migrant deaths under Biden.
SOURCES:
Prompted by MSNBC’s Alex Wagner, Biden campaign official Quentin Fulks claimed Donald Trump is “on the level of Hitler and Mussolini.”
https://www.msnbc.com/alex-wagner-tonight/watch/-on-the-level-of-hitler-and-mussolini-biden-camp-slams-trump-on-anti-immigrant-plan-198093381980
The “cages” used by the Trump administration to temporarily hold unauthorized immigrant children were built and used by the Obama administration.

This 2014 picture shows Obama’s Secretary of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson, walking past ones of these “cages”:
https://azcapitoltimes.com/news/2014/06/27/guatemalan-data-show-number-of-children-returned-from-u-s-is-falling/
When Trump became president in 2017, elected Democrats and celebrities began raging about these facilities while posting photos from the Associated Press of children “in cages.”
https://apnews.com/article/a98f26f7c9424b44b7fa927ea1acd4d4
https://americasvoice.org/blog/celebrities-separation-border/
The Associated Press itself reported that its photos “were from 2014, during the Obama administration, but were presented by liberal activists as if they showed the effects of Trump’s immigration policy now.”
Nevertheless, Democrats have continued to spread the claim that these facilities were an inhumane policy of Trump.

Border crossing deaths were lower under Trump than any president for as far back as data extends, and they have been much higher under Joe Biden than ever recorded.
https://www.justfactsdaily.com/the-border-is-less-secure-than-ever-and-the-implications-are-deadly
The Biden administration has refused to release data on border crossing deaths to the public, but federal employees have leaked it to the press.
https://www.cnn.com/2021/10/29/politics/border-patrol-record-border-deaths-fiscal-year-2021/index.html
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/record-856-migrants-die-southern-border-fiscal-year-2022-cbp
The Biden administration has adopted a policy of not recording border crossing deaths in cases where the federal government isn’t the first entity to discover the dead bodies.
https://www.gao.gov/products/gao-23-106007
Email from Customs and Border Protection (CPB) to Just Facts, December 6, 2022: “Ultimately, CBP and the Appropriations Committee reached an agreement to use the existing statutory definition of an in-custody death when categorizing incidents to meet these new reporting requirements.”
Federal law states, “The Commissioner of U.S. Customs and Border Protection shall submit a report to the appropriate committees of Congress regarding all unidentified remains discovered, during the reporting period, on or near the border between the United States and Mexico.”
https://www.congress.gov/116/plaws/publ277/PLAW-116publ277.pdf#page=2
On December 10, 2022, Just Facts wrote to the Biden administration’s CPB, “How does CPB justify excluding “not-in-custody” deaths from the total count of migrant deaths given the following requirements of the Missing Persons and Unidentified Remains Act (Public Law 116-277)?”

“Equity” Means Discrimination
Achieving “equity” often involves discrimination, which is forbidden by the Civil Rights Act and the 14th Amendment of the U.S. Constitution.
SOURCES:
On 5/21/23, anchor Linsey Davis reported on ABC’s World News Tonight, “The NAACP is issuing a formal travel advisory for Florida, saying the state has become hostile to black Americans under Republican Governor Ron DeSantis. Other civil rights groups have issued similar warnings in recent weeks. This as DeSantis is on the verge of entering the race for the White House.” https://www.newsbusters.org/blogs/nb/nicholas-fondacaro/2023/05/22/abcnbc-boosts-naacps-ridiculous-travel-advisory-florida
Florida recently enacted a law that reinforces the U.S. Civil Rights Act, which requires that every person to be treated equally under the law:
https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/7/BillText/er/PDF
https://www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/42/2000e-2
Civil rights are “the rights that every person should have regardless of his or her sex, race, or religion.” https://www.britannica.com/dictionary/civil-rights#:~:text=civil%20rights%20(noun)
The NAACP is a proponent of “equity.” https://naacp.org/about/mission-vision#:~:text=Our%20mission%20is%20to%20achieve,and%20all%20persons%20of%20color.
Equity “recognizes each person has different circumstances and needs, meaning different groups of people need different resources and opportunities allocated to them in order to thrive.” https://unitedwaynca.org/blog/equity-vs-equality/
In the words of Kamala Harris, “there’s a big difference between equality and equity,” and “equitable treatment means we all end up at the same place.” https://twitter.com/KamalaHarris/status/1322963321994289154
Unequal treatment under the law is explicitly forbidden by the 14th Amendment, which states, “Nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.” https://www.justfacts.com/constitution#Amendment14
Unequal treatment under the law is embraced by many on the left, including Supreme Court Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson: https://www.justfactsdaily.com/yes-the-u-s-constitution-forbids-government-from-racial-discrimination
One of the NAACP’s stated missions is to “eliminate discrimination” https://naacp.org/about/mission-vision#:~:text=Our%20mission%20is%20to%20achieve,and%20all%20persons%20of%20color.
The NAACP supported placing Hugo Black on the Supreme Court even after he was exposed as a former member of the Ku Klux Klan: https://www.justfacts.com/racialissues#civil_newdeal
In 1943, Hugo Black authored the Supreme Court’s decision in Korematsu v. United States, which allowed the Roosevelt administration to place innocent U.S. citizens of Japanese descent into detention camps during World War II: https://caselaw.findlaw.com/court/us-supreme-court/323/214.html
On 5/22/23, NBC News anchor Tom Llamas reported that the NAACP was “responding to what it calls DeSantis’ ‘aggressive attempts to erase black history and to restrict diversity, equity, and inclusion programs in Florida’s schools.’ Earlier this year, DeSantis blocked an advanced placement course in African American studies from being offered at Florida high schools.”
Florida law requires that schools to teach the history of African Americans, including the “ramifications of prejudice, racism, and stereotyping,” along with “slavery, racial oppression, and “racial discrimination.” https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/7/BillText/er/PDF#page=15
Florida law forbids public schools and colleges from teaching students that they are “superior,” “oppressed,” “privileged,” or guilty “by virtue of his or her race.” https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/7/BillText/er/PDF#page=9
Florida law doesn’t prohibit teaching of the racial tenets of leftism as long as this is done “in an objective manner without endorsement of the concepts.” https://www.flsenate.gov/Session/Bill/2022/7/BillText/er/PDF#page=11

Full Context of Trump’s Remarks About Hillary Clinton’s Emails & Russia
Democrats often claim that Trump colluded with Russia because he publicly called for Russia to hack Hillary Clinton’s emails during a July 27, 2016 press conference. In fact, Trump did nothing of the sort, as evidenced by the full context of his remarks.
Instead, Trump repeatedly stated that China, Russia, or an independent hacker has probably ALREADY hacked Clinton’s email server, and if they did, they should release the 33,000 emails that Clinton destroyed after she received a subpoena for them.
The media then took a sarcastic quip out of context to make it seem like Trump asked Russia to hack Clinton’s emails.
Here’s the complete transcript of Trump’s remarks about this matter.
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: … The e-mail situation—I call it the double e-mail situation, both very serious. What was said in the last ones to the DNC was horrible, absolutely horrible. If I would have used language like they used about religion, about race, about everything else that they discuss in those emails, I would have had to run and hide and probably drop out of the race. With her, everything’s just fine. So, just ask yourself, why she doesn’t have news conferences.
…
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: It’s just a total deflection, this whole thing with Russia. In fact, I saw her campaign manager—I don’t know his title, Mook. I saw him on television, and they asked him about Russia and the hacking. By the way, if they hacked, they probably have her 33,000 e-mails. I hope they do. They probably have her 33,000 e-mails that she lost and deleted because you’d see some beauties there. So let’s see.
But I watched this guy Mook, and he talked about “We think it was Russia that hacked.” Now, first of all, it what was said on those that’s so bad, but he said, I watched it, I think he was live. He said, “We think it was Russia that hacked.” And then he said—and this is in-person sitting watching television as I’ve been doing—and then he said, “Ahh, could be Trump, yeah, yeah. Trump, Trump, oh yeah, Trump.” He reminded me of Jon Lovitz—for Saturday Night Live in “The Liar”—where he’d go, “Yeah, yeah, I went to Harvard, Harvard, yeah, yeah.” This is the guy, you have to see it, “Yeah, could be Trump, yeah, yeah.”
So, it is so far-fetched, it’s so ridiculous. Honestly, I wish I had that power, I’d love to have that power, but Russia has no respect for our country, and that’s why—if it is Russia, nobody even knows—it’s probably China, or it could be somebody sitting in his bed—but it shows how weak we are. It shows how disrespected we are. Total aside, assuming it’s Russia or China or one of the major countries and competitors, it’s a total sign of disrespect for our country. Putin and the leaders throughout the world have no respect for our country anymore, and they certainly have no respect for our leader. So, I know nothing about it, it’s one of the most farfetched I’ve ever heard.
…
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: I never met Putin, I don’t know who Putin is. He said one nice thing about me. He said I’m a genius. I said thank you very much to the newspaper, and that was the end of it. I never met Putin.
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: None.
OFF-MIC QUESTION
Because it’s under audit. I’ll release them when the audit is completed. Nobody would release when it’s under audit. I’ve had audits for 15 or 16 years. Every year, I have a routine audit. I’m under audit, when the audit is complete I’ll release them. But zero, I mean I will tell you right now, zero, I have nothing to do with Russia.
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: I’m not going to tell Putin what to do. Why should I tell Putin what to do? He already did something today where he said don’t blame them essentially for your incompetence. Let me tell you, it’s not even about Russia or China or whoever is it is that is doing the hacking.
It was about the things that were said in those emails. They were terrible things. Talking about Jewish, talking about race, talking about atheist, trying to pin labels on people. What was said was a disgrace, and it was Debby Wasserman Shultz. And believe me, as sure as you’re sitting there, Hillary Clinton knew about it. She knew everything. Debbie Wasserman Schultz could not breathe without speaking and getting approval from Hillary Clinton—couldn’t breathe. And you saw that.
It also showed that it was a fixed race, but I’d been saying that long before I saw the emails. It was a rigged race. It was totally rigged, and Debbie Wasserman Schultz rigged it for Hillary Clinton.
…
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: What do I have to get involved with Putin for? I have nothing to do with Putin. I’ve never spoken to him. I don’t know anything about him other than he will respect me. He doesn’t respect our President. And if it is Russia—which it’s probably not, nobody knows who it is—but if it is Russia, it’s really bad for a different reason, because it shows how little respect they have for our country, when they would hack into a major party and get everything.
But it would be interesting to see—I will tell you this—Russia, if you’re listening, I hope you’re able to find the 30,000 emails that are missing. I think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. Let’s see if that happens.
…
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: No, I had nothing to do with Russia. John, John, how many times do I have to say it, are you a smart man? I have nothing to do with Russia. I have nothing to do with Russia, and even for anything. What do I have to do with Russia? You know the closest I came to Russia, I bought a house a number of years ago in Palm Beach Florida. Palm Beach is a very expensive place—it was man who went bankrupt—and I bought the house for 40 million dollars, and I sold it to a Russian for 100 million dollars, including brokerage commissions. So I sold it, so I bought it for 40, I sold it for 100 to a Russian. That was a number of years ago. I guess probably I sell condos to Russians, okay?
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: Of course I can! I told you. Other than normal stuff, I buy a house if I sell it to a Russian. I have nothing to do with Russia. I said that Putin has much better leadership qualities than Obama, but who doesn’t know that?
…
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: I have no idea. It’s probably not Russia. Nobody knows if it’s Russia. You know the sad thing is, that with the technology and the genius we have in this country—not in government unfortunately—but with the genius we have in government, we don’t even know who took the Democratic National Committee emails, right? We don’t even know who it is. I heard this morning one report said they don’t think its Russia. They think it might be China. Another report said it might be just be a hacker, some guy with a 200 IQ that can’t get up in the morning. Okay, nobody knows. Honestly, they have no idea if it’s Russia. Might be Russia. But if it’s any foreign country, it shows how little respect they have for the United States.

OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: That’s up to the president. Let the president talk to them. Look, here’s the problem. Here’s the problem Katie, Katie, here’s the problem, very simple. He has no respect.
OFF-MIC QUESTION
TRUMP: Well they probably have them. I’d like to have them released.
OFF-MIC QUESTION
Nope, gives me no pause—if they have them, they have them, we might as well find out. Hey, you know what gives me more pause, that a person in our government, crooked Hillary Clinton, here’s what gives me more—be quiet, I know you want to, you know, save her—that a person in our government, Katie, would delete or get rid of 33,000 emails. That gives me a big problem. After she gets a subpoena, she gets subpoenaed, and she gets rid of 33,000 emails, that gives me a problem. Now, if Russia or China or any other country has those emails, I need to be honest with you, I’d love to see them.

Who’s to Blame for Grocery Inflation?
Senator Elizabeth Warren blames “price gouging” by “giant grocery chains” for food inflation, but the real cause is trillions of dollars in federal deficit spending and money printing, enacted and supported by Warren & Co.

Ketanji Brown Jackson Claims She Can’t Define “Woman” Because She’s “Not a Biologist”
Transcript of Senate hearing for the nomination of Judge Ketanji Brown Jackson to the U.S. Supreme Court, March 22, 2022:
U.S. Senator Marsha Blackburn (R–TN): Do you interpret Justice Ginsburg’s meaning of “men” and “woman” as “male” and “female”?
Jackson: Again, because I don’t know the case, I don’t know how I interpret it. I’d need to read the whole thing.
Blackburn: Okay, Can you provide a definition for the word “woman”?
Jackson: Can I provide a definition? No.
Blackburn: Yeah.
Jackson: I can’t.
Blackburn: You can’t?
Jackson: Not in this context, I’m not a biologist.
Blackburn: The meaning of the word woman is so unclear and controversial that you can’t give me a definition?
Jackson: Senator, in my work as a judge, what I do is I address disputes. If there’s a dispute about a definition, people make arguments, and I look at the law, and I decide. So I’m not.
Blackburn: The fact that you can’t give me a straight answer about something as fundamental as what a woman is underscores the dangers of the kind of progressive education that we are hearing about.

Transgenderism Impacts on Health
Without reporting opposing views or any evidence, the Associated Press claims that transgender “advocates say expanded gender-affirming care is vital to the safety and mental health of transgender people.”
In fact, a 2023 paper about transgender drugs and surgeries in the scientific journal “Current Sexual Health Reports” documents that:
• “Results of long-term studies of adult transgender populations failed to demonstrate convincing improvements in mental health, and some studies suggest that there are treatment-associated harms.”
• “Systematic reviews” have found that “the risk/benefit ratio of youth gender transition ranges from unknown to unfavorable.”
• “Three recent papers examined the studies that underpin the practice of youth gender transition and found the research to be deeply flawed.”
This is corroborated by nine studies on the physical impacts of puberty blockers and a British Medical Journal analysis of transgender drugs and surgeries.
