New Footage Reveals Disturbing Timeline Before Assassination of Charlie Kirk [WATCH]

/

Previously unreleased surveillance footage was presented in court on Tuesday during the preliminary hearing for Tyler Robinson, the 23-year-old man accused of killing Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk in 2025, as reported by The New York Post.

The videos, introduced by prosecutors in a Utah courtroom, were accompanied by testimony from former Utah state investigator David Hull, who described Robinson’s alleged movements on the campus of Utah Valley University on Sept. 10, 2025, the day Kirk was fatally shot.

According to Hull, the surveillance recordings show Robinson arriving on campus, leaving, returning later in different clothing, and eventually climbing to the roof of a campus building before the shooting.

Prosecutors also introduced an FBI report stating that DNA samples likely matching Robinson and Lance Twiggs were recovered from evidence collected near the scene.

According to the report, the DNA was found on a towel wrapped around a firearm discovered near the campus and on a screwdriver recovered from the rooftop where investigators allege the shots were fired.

Hull testified that Robinson, who lived approximately three hours from the university, spent time walking around campus, made contact with Turning Point USA representatives, and stopped for lunch at Chick-fil-A before returning later in the day.

During his testimony, Hull described one of the surveillance recordings shown in court.

“This is Mr. Robinson returning to the campus on foot. … You can see he is wearing the same clothing as in the previous video. … It’s a maroon colored t-shirt … and then Converse shoes.”

Another surveillance video showed an individual wearing different clothing. When prosecutors asked Hull why he believed the person shown was still Robinson, he pointed to several similarities visible in the footage.

“The shoes are the same. And the images that we have are, from my viewing and seeing Mr. Robinson on the video, it’s the same person. … He is wearing different clothing, and he also is walking with a gait or a limp in this video.”

Law enforcement sources previously told ABC News that investigators believe the limp may have resulted from Robinson allegedly concealing a rifle beneath his clothing.

District Judge Tony Graf overruled defense objections and permitted the surveillance videos to be shown during the hearing.

The evidence was presented on the second day of the preliminary hearing, where prosecutors are seeking to establish probable cause for Robinson to stand trial. Robinson has not yet entered a plea.

Prosecutors told the court they intend to introduce numerous additional pieces of evidence, including a recorded interview involving Lance Twiggs, whom investigators allege received text messages in which Robinson confessed to the shooting.

Defense attorneys sought to prevent both the surveillance footage and videos of Kirk’s death from being shown in court, arguing that the material could prejudice future jurors and violate the rights of the victim’s family.

The defense also asked the court to limit media camera access during the proceedings.

Judge Graf allowed cameras to remain in the courtroom but prohibited the broadcast of certain graphic evidence.

Charlie Kirk’s widow, Erika Kirk, attended the hearing on Tuesday after entering the courthouse through a private entrance, according to reports.

Monday marked her first time in the courtroom with the man accused of killing her husband. According to reports, she left the courtroom before video evidence of the shooting was shown.

Robinson was observed taking notes during portions of the hearing while consulting with his attorneys.

Several members of Kirk’s family also attended the proceedings, including his parents, Robert and Kathryn Kirk.

Turning Point USA CEO Erika Kirk sat beside her mother-in-law during the hearing. Donald Trump Jr., Bettina Anderson, and Jack Posobiec were also present in the courtroom.

Before the hearing began, Kirk’s family released a public statement addressing the ongoing legal proceedings.

“We remain deeply grateful for the support, prayers, and kindness we have received. This outpouring has sustained us during the darkest days of our lives,” the statement read.

“Out of respect for the judicial process, we will not be commenting further at this time. We ask for continued privacy as we navigate this process and immense grief,” the family concluded.

The preliminary hearing is continuing as prosecutors seek to convince the court there is sufficient evidence to move the case toward trial. Robinson faces the possibility of the death penalty if he is tried and convicted.

Dana Perino Blows the Lid Off Why Democrats Really Ditched Graham Platner [WATCH]

Dana Perino Blows the Lid Off Why Democrats Really Ditched Graham Platner [WATCH]

/

Dana Perino has never been afraid to tell the truth that the mainstream media tiptoes around, and on Tuesday’s episode of The Five she once again dropped a truth bomb that scorched Democrat spin masters from coast to coast.

The veteran White House press secretary for George W. Bush called out exactly why Democrats suddenly turned on senatorial candidate Graham Platner after months of defending him, and surprise, it was not about moral outrage, it was about raw panic in their poll numbers.

Platner’s campaign was already circling the drain after Politico reported a sexual assault allegation early in the week.

Even though Platner called the accusation “categorically untrue,” it appears Democrat leadership finally found a reason to toss him under the bus.

Their timing, however, raises some hard questions that Perino did not hesitate to ask.

She pointed straight to The New York Times and its handling of the allegation. According to Perino, the accuser had provided five sources who could corroborate her claims.

The paper contacted only two, who backed up her character, and then decided to walk away from the story before it exploded elsewhere.

“They didn’t call the other three, the other three who had the contemporaneous notes from when she had detailed it,” Perino said.

Perino likened the Times’ lack of follow through to a classic “catch and kill” move, the tactic used when powerful interests want a damaging story buried under a rug instead of front page headlines.

Coming from someone who has been inside that media machine and seen it operate, it sounded less like speculation and more like a warning shot aimed at the political establishment.

Then she dropped the question Democrats would rather avoid altogether.

“So when did the Democrats actually start to care?” Perino asked with a raised brow.

Her answer was refreshingly blunt.

“It’s because the recent polling shows that Graham Platner was going to lose to Susan Collins,” she explained.

Only when the data turned against him did the moral grandstanding kick in.

The timing could not be worse for Democrats. Platner has refused to leave the race unless his terms are met.

Reports suggest he is demanding the right to pick his replacement, which Perino quickly dismissed with the firmness of someone who knows how power actually works.

“Sir, you are not in a position to have conditions,” she said, cutting straight through his delusional sense of leverage.

Perino then raised another political nightmare scenario for Democrats.

What if party leaders try to repeat their 2024 stunt and switch candidates at the last minute?

“If they pull a Biden switcheroo, the Democratic brand is just so damaged in the state,” she warned.

And when voters are given the choice between Republican steadiness and Democrat chaos, the contrast becomes almost irresistible.

“What is the knock against Susan Collins? She’s so steady. There’s no drama. Maybe the state will be looking for that,” Perino added.

That sentiment likely resonates with voters exhausted by constant left wing melodrama.

For months Democrats have squabbled among themselves about whether Platner represented a fresh progressive outsider or an unpredictable liability.

Perino pointed out that even Sen. Elizabeth Warren could not resist calling Platner her “kind of man,” while Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez smartly avoided endorsing him altogether.

The irony would be delicious if it were not so indicative of the party’s dysfunction.

The bigger disaster is the brewing civil war between the Democrat base and their establishment consultants.

The grassroots crowd wanted Platner or someone with similar progressive credentials.

Party elites, spooked by electability concerns, preferred a safe technocrat like Gov. Janet Mills.

According to Perino, that civil war never ended.

“The problem for the base is that they have consultants who are idiots and they are reckless and they are careless and they don’t care about women,” she said.

“They don’t care about anything. But what they want is the power. And the only reason this is all coming at this moment is because they knew they were going to lose.”

WATCH:

That quote alone might echo for weeks.

It is a brutal assessment of a political party that pretends to champion women’s rights while weaponizing accusations only when polling dictates it.

It is political opportunism in its purest form.

Platner’s implosion now joins the long list of Democrat scandals that have nothing to do with principle and everything to do with optics.

If the polls had shown him cruising to victory against Collins, there is no doubt he would still be the golden boy of the party while the same liberal journalists who now claim moral outrage would be defending him on cable panels.

But once the polls flipped, so did the sanctimonious talking points.

Perino’s breakdown exposed not just a single candidate’s collapse but a pattern that defines modern Democrat behavior.

When the votes look secure, they moralize. When the numbers drop, they purge.

And after a year of confusion, backroom deals, and leadership chaos, voters are beginning to crave something simple, accountable, and calm.

That is why, as Perino stressed, Collins’ steadiness might just turn into the Democrats’ latest nightmare.

For the Democrat establishment, it is yet another painful reminder that their biggest problem is not the opposition party. It is their own reflection.

CENTCOM Unleashes Massive Retaliation on Iran After Shipping Assaults as Regime Threatens ‘Crushing Response’ [WATCH]

/

The U.S. military carried out strikes against more than 80 targets in Iran on Tuesday after Iranian forces allegedly targeted three commercial vessels transiting the Strait of Hormuz, according to U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM).

As Red State reported, U.S. officials said the operation was conducted in response to attacks on commercial shipping that they said violated a memorandum of understanding between the United States and Iran.

According to the administration, the military response was significantly larger than previous U.S. strikes conducted on June 27, following an earlier incident involving commercial vessels.

CENTCOM said the latest operation focused on degrading Iran’s ability to threaten international maritime traffic through one of the world’s busiest shipping corridors.

According to a CENTCOM statement, U.S. forces targeted multiple categories of military infrastructure.

“U.S. forces struck Iranian air defense systems, command and control networks, coastal radar sites, anti-ship missile capabilities, and more than 60 Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps small boats in and near the strait to degrade Iran’s ability to continue attacking international commerce flowing through the international trade corridor,” CENTCOM said in a statement.

The military action came after U.S. officials accused Iran of attacking three commercial ships traveling through the Strait of Hormuz.

Administration officials described those actions as a violation of the existing memorandum of understanding between the two countries.

In addition to the military operation, the Treasury Department announced that sanctions on Iranian oil sales had been reimposed. Administration officials said the sanctions were intended to increase economic pressure on Tehran.

The developments occurred as Iran continued public mourning ceremonies following the death of former Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.

The latest exchange has raised new questions about the durability of the ceasefire arrangement between the United States and Iran.

Iran responded by condemning the strikes.

According to reports, Iran’s Khatam al-Anbiya Central Headquarters described the U.S. military action as a “blatant act of aggression” and warned that Tehran would respond.

The military command also vowed to deliver a “crushing response” and said Iran would not allow the United States to interfere with its handling of the Strait of Hormuz.

The Strait of Hormuz remains one of the world’s most strategically important waterways because a significant share of global energy shipments passes through the narrow channel connecting the Persian Gulf with international shipping lanes.

Military analysts continue to closely monitor developments in the region as both countries exchange warnings and military actions.

Retired U.S. Air Force Lt. Col. Buzz Patterson also commented after CENTCOM released video of the strikes.

“CENTCOM has released video of our strikes tonight. It’s over for now. We targeted over 80 locations and more than 60 IRGC small boats.”

“We hit them HARD tonight, but all targets were military installations or equipment.”

“Bridge and Power Day is standing by, Iran. I think I’d quit shooting at oil tankers. We’re chomping at the bit over here.”

Neither the United States nor Iran has announced additional military operations following Tuesday’s exchange, although officials in both countries have continued to issue public statements regarding the confrontation.

The latest military action follows weeks of heightened tensions involving commercial shipping, sanctions, and military operations in the Persian Gulf region.

Whether the conflict escalates further or returns to diplomatic negotiations remains uncertain as both governments continue to respond to developments in the Strait of Hormuz.

Illegal Alien Fatally Shot After Trying to Run Over ICE Agent in Houston Showdown [WATCH]

/

A man identified by federal officials as a Mexican national who was in the United States illegally died Tuesday after an encounter with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in Houston, Texas, according to the Department of Homeland Security, as reported by Townhall.

Federal authorities said the incident occurred Tuesday morning during an attempted enforcement operation.

ICE officers were attempting to stop the man when, according to officials, he failed to comply with verbal commands and attempted to flee.

Authorities said the situation escalated when the suspect allegedly drove his vehicle into an ICE vehicle before attempting to strike an ICE officer with the vehicle.

According to DHS, the officer discharged a firearm in response to the threat. The suspect was struck during the confrontation.

Emergency medical personnel responded to the scene, and the man was transported to a local hospital, where he was later pronounced dead.

Federal officials have not publicly released the man’s identity.

The Department of Homeland Security said the incident remains under investigation.

According to ICE officials, the Federal Bureau of Investigation has assumed responsibility for the investigation, and agents responded to the scene following the shooting.

Authorities have not released additional information regarding the sequence of events beyond their initial account of the confrontation, and investigators have not yet announced whether any additional evidence, including body-camera footage or surveillance video, will be released.

The Houston incident marks the second officer-involved shooting connected to an ICE enforcement operation reported within approximately one week.

In the earlier incident in Pennsylvania, ICE officials said an officer fired in self-defense after a vehicle-related confrontation during an enforcement action.

According to authorities, the suspect fled the scene following the shooting, prompting a search by law enforcement.

No additional details about that Pennsylvania investigation were included in the initial statement regarding the Houston case.

Federal immigration enforcement operations have increasingly drawn attention as ICE continues carrying out deportation efforts in multiple states.

During such operations, officers may encounter individuals who attempt to evade arrest, and investigations into uses of force are routinely conducted by appropriate federal authorities.

The FBI’s involvement in the Houston investigation follows standard procedures used in many federal officer-involved shootings.

Investigators are expected to examine physical evidence, interview witnesses, and review any available recordings before determining whether further action is warranted.

Officials have not announced when additional information about the Houston investigation will be released.

The Department of Homeland Security and ICE have not indicated whether any officers involved in the incident were injured.

Authorities also have not released further details about the attempted traffic stop or the enforcement operation that preceded the confrontation.

The investigation remains ongoing.

Iran Strikes Ships in the Strait as Trump Administration Tightens the Economic Squeeze [WATCH]

Iran Strikes Ships in the Strait as Trump Administration Tightens the Economic Squeeze [WATCH]

/

Iran is up to its old tricks in the Strait of Hormuz, once again proving that when the Islamic Republic talks about peace, it usually means “peace through missile fire.”

The regime that has been bullying the region for nearly five decades carried out yet another round of attacks on commercial shipping early this week, hitting tankers and threatening the vital artery of international oil trade.

Reports indicate that at least two ships were struck by Iranian missiles in the narrow waterway that connects the Persian Gulf to the Gulf of Oman.

Though details are still developing, the timing could not be more revealing.

Even as Iranian officials continue claiming to negotiate with the United States in good faith, their behavior says otherwise.

It is the same pattern of duplicity that has defined their rule since 1979.

President Donald Trump wasted no time delivering what Tehran truly fears: American economic firepower.

The administration officially revoked the license that allowed Iran to sell its oil under the existing Memorandum of Understanding.

For a regime whose entire economy runs on crude exports, this is a devastating move.

According to the Treasury Department, the revocation came in direct response to Iran’s aggression in the Strait.

A U.S. official told CNBC that the MOU had always been performance-based, meaning Iran would keep its privileges only if it behaved responsibly.

Since that clearly did not happen, the White House pulled the plug. The message was unmistakable: act up, and you pay the price.

“Iran will only reap benefits if they exhibit good behavior,” said the official.

“Their actions in the Strait were wholly unacceptable to the United States and will be met with consequences.”

That statement marks a return to strength not seen since Trump’s first term, when Iran briefly remembered that America means business.

Iran has even admitted to one of the attacks. State-run media claimed that its strike on the Qatari ship Al Rekayyat was justified because the vessel supposedly ignored repeated warnings and continued its route with U.S. assistance.

The attack comes dangerously close to the border of piracy, but for Tehran, international law has never been more than a suggestion.

A second ship, the Saudi-flagged Wedyan, also sustained damage under suspicious circumstances.

United States authorities confirmed the incident and are investigating whether Iran is again trying to provoke a wider conflict.

For now, officials say, the signs are clear that Tehran is testing the limits to see how far it can push before facing military retaliation.

The attacks come during an extraordinary week for Iran, as the regime prepares an elaborate funeral procession for its late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei.

The images of wailing crowds and endless parades were supposed to project unity and strength.

Instead, these new provocations broadcast desperation, a signal from the mullahs that even in mourning they cannot resist stirring chaos.

Trump’s reaction has shattered any illusions of a reset with Iran.

After years of failed peace talks and unenforced red lines under previous administrations, the president’s “America First” approach has made clear that the United States will not tolerate state-sponsored terrorism disguised as diplomacy.

The oil license suspension is not just a punishment; it is a warning shot across the entire regime’s economic foundation.

WATCH:

Tehran’s apologists in global media have tried to spin the strikes as defensive, suggesting Iran is merely reacting to perceived threats in its waters.

But it is worth remembering that the Strait of Hormuz is an international passage vital to world trade.

Targeting foreign ships there is akin to mining a public highway and then claiming self-defense.

It does not hold up in reality.

Every administration before has seen Iran’s pattern and yet still fallen for the same empty promises.

Billions of dollars have flowed to Tehran in exchange for supposed moderation, while its Revolutionary Guard continues exporting violence from Yemen to Syria and beyond.

The lesson, one Trump clearly absorbed, is that appeasement only funds more aggression.

What happens next depends on whether other nations finally follow America’s lead.

Europe still clings to fantasies of reviving nuclear deals and trust-based partnerships with Iran.

Meanwhile, Iranian missiles are flying and tankers are burning.

The region waits to see whether this new confrontation will spiral further or whether Washington’s sharp use of economic power will sober the ayatollahs into silence.

For now, one thing is certain.

The Islamic Republic’s regime has once again shown its true colors.

And the Trump administration, unlike its predecessors, chose to hit them where it hurts most: their wallet.

Iran wanted to flex its military muscle, and instead found its economic lifeline suddenly cut off.

The balance of power in the Gulf just shifted again, and this time not in Tehran’s favor.

Toyota Moves Truck Production to Texas with $3.6 Billion Expansion in Major Win for American Workers [WATCH]

Toyota Moves Truck Production to Texas with $3.6 Billion Expansion in Major Win for American Workers [WATCH]

/

Toyota is making a big bet on American manufacturing, announcing a sweeping $3.6 billion expansion of its San Antonio, Texas, plant.

The investment will bring roughly 2,000 jobs to the Lone Star State and shift production of its popular Tacoma pickup from Mexico back to U.S. soil.

It is yet another massive boost for Texas workers, proving that business is booming in states that champion free enterprise and reject the heavy hand of governmental bureaucracy.

The company revealed that it will add a second assembly line to its existing San Antonio facility, which currently produces the Tundra and Sequoia.

This new line will allow Toyota to assemble the Tacoma domestically, taking advantage of Texas’s robust manufacturing infrastructure and a workforce known for technical excellence and resilience.

Toyota’s move marks a major shift from its previous strategy. In 2020, the automaker relocated Tacoma production to its Guanajuato plant in Mexico.

Now, just a few years later, it is reversing course, choosing Texas for its next phase of growth and doubling the San Antonio plant’s footprint to roughly 2.5 million square feet by 2030.

This latest expansion will bring Toyota’s total investment in its San Antonio operations to $8.3 billion since construction first began in 2003.

The company says the decision shows its confidence in North America’s long-term growth potential and the ability of American workers to deliver world-class results.

For Texas, the announcement is a home run.

Governor Greg Abbott celebrated the news, noting the expansion’s support from the Texas Enterprise Fund and the JETI program, which will add a $20 million state grant to help drive the project forward.

Abbott highlighted that Toyota’s growth cements Texas as a top destination for advanced manufacturing and innovation.

“Toyota’s continued investment in Texas demonstrates that our state is the best place in America to do business,” Abbott said.

He praised the company for creating new opportunities for Texas families and reaffirming the success of his state’s business-friendly policies that prioritize jobs and prosperity over regulation and red tape.

Once the expansion is complete, Toyota’s San Antonio workforce is expected to grow to around 6,000 employees, supported by 23 onsite suppliers.

The plant already rolled out more than 197,000 vehicles last year and remains the exclusive assembly hub for the popular Tundra and Sequoia models.

A new axle production facility is also scheduled to begin operations soon, further strengthening Toyota’s footprint.

WATCH:

The company also made clear that while it remains committed to both U.S. and North American production, it supports quick resolution of trade issues between the U.S., Mexico, and Canada.

Toyota urged clarity on trade rules under the existing agreement to maintain global competitiveness across the region.

Of course, the political element was impossible to ignore.

President Donald Trump wasted no time reminding Americans that his trade policies have played a major role in bringing manufacturing back home.

Trump posted to Truth Social, “Toyota is moving from Mexico to the United States (Texas!). A really big deal. Tariffs at work!”

His message highlighted the effectiveness of his push for fair trade and domestic job creation.

For years, automakers warned that Trump’s tariffs on imports could raise costs, but time is proving his argument right.

Companies are waking up to the reality that America can and should be the global leader in manufacturing, especially when Washington stops undercutting its own economy with globalist pandering.

Toyota’s expansion is a real-world example of the benefits America reaps when corporations are encouraged, not punished, for making things here.

The Ford Motor Company recently hinted at similar shifts after realizing the downside of overreliance on overseas operations and what happens when big tech experiments in automation fall short of real-world demand.

Toyota’s Texas investment may signal the beginning of a larger trend among manufacturers looking to anchor more production inside the United States.

Economically, the timing makes sense. As inflationary pressures ease and energy prices remain relatively steady, companies are seizing the moment to expand in states that welcome enterprise.

Texas, with its low taxes, affordable land, and unapologetic opposition to burdensome regulation, offers exactly the type of environment that allows businesses to thrive.

Meanwhile, the San Antonio community stands to gain immensely.

Thousands of new, high-paying jobs are on the horizon, along with supplier contracts and construction work that will stimulate additional economic activity.

The ripple effect will likely touch everything from local restaurants to construction firms and logistics providers.

For Toyota, the benefits are equally compelling. Producing trucks closer to core U.S. markets reduces shipping costs, simplifies logistics, and reinforces the company’s American identity in a market that values toughness, reliability, and patriotism.

The message to consumers is clear: Toyota trucks are built in America, by American hands, and for American roads.

Real growth comes from empowering private industry, not smothering it with regulation.

Toyota’s massive expansion proves once again that free markets work and that conservative states like Texas remain the backbone of America’s industrial revival.

Elizabeth Warren and Ro Khanna Get Nuked by Bongino as Graham Platner Scandals Explode [WATCH]

/

Dan Bongino criticized Sen. Elizabeth Warren and Rep. Ro Khanna during a recent broadcast, accusing both Democrats of hypocrisy over their public comments regarding political candidate Graham Platner and arguing that allegations against Platner had become a political issue rather than one centered on evidence.

Bongino’s remarks followed the airing of a video clip featuring Warren endorsing Platner.

In the clip, Warren praised Platner’s candidacy and argued he would bring accountability to Washington.

“Graham Platner is the fighter we need. You bet, I said to myself, that’s my kind of man, because that is a man who not only has the values but a man who believes in accountability, and we need a little accountability coming out of Washington right now. We need Graham Platner to come in and get rid of the corruption in Washington. Time for new laws,” Warren said.

After the clip concluded, Bongino challenged Warren’s endorsement and criticized what he described as a contradiction between her remarks and later developments surrounding Platner.

“So, Pow Wow Chow, Pow Wow Chow’s like we need a fight. He’s fighting with his wiener in the Porta John, that they like these guys, like that’s a bridge too far. No, it’s not. This is your guy, we need accountability, accountability,” Bongino said.

He continued his criticism of Warren while referencing allegations that had been reported about Plattner.

“Oh, he’s accounted for something in the portage on just like something about Mary, she accounted for a Tuesday. What is that hair gel? That’s the only thing they were accounting for. Elizabeth Warren, powwow gel lady, did he account for his bodily fluids?” Bongino said.

Bongino then addressed the allegations themselves, saying he believed claims against any individual should be evaluated based on evidence rather than accepted automatically.

“And I mean, what? What did this is the red line now? The people there are allegations out there that maybe major media outlets, Politico reported the story about the latest allegation, and just to be clear, like, listen, I don’t, I accept evidence, I don’t believe everyone, women, men, I believe evidence. Okay, that’s not the point,” Bongino said.

He argued that the allegations had already been known publicly before receiving renewed attention.

“The point is they already knew about this,” he said.

Bongino then shifted his criticism to Khanna, whom he described as one of the most influential Democratic politicians on Capitol Hill.

“Who did I tell you was one of the most, if not the most dangerous politician up on Capitol Hill in America right now?” Bongino asked his audience.

After interacting with viewers during the broadcast, Bongino identified Khanna as the person he was referring to.

“Yes, Ro Khanna. He is the biggest fraud I have ever seen in my life. This guy is the worst chameleon up on Capitol Hill. He’s even worse than Elizabeth Warren, pow wow chow, because Warren, you can see through her bullshit,” Bongino said.

He continued criticizing Khanna’s public image and political messaging.

“Ro Khanna, Ro Khanna is you listen to this guy talk on TV, he goes on Fox, and you’re like, wow, this guy’s for reals like a sensible Democrat, he’s a clown and a fraud,” Bongino said.

Bongino then referenced a social media post by Khanna concerning Platner.

According to Bongino, Khanna wrote: “It’s been very clear that sexual assault or violence against women is a red line. They knew about this. These allegations are very seriously credible… Graham Platner should drop out of the race. I’m withdrawing my endorsement.”

Bongino argued that Khanna’s statement was politically motivated.

“This guy’s such a clown. How are you falling for this guy’s bullshit?” Bongino said.

Toward the end of his remarks, Bongino addressed viewers directly, saying he appreciated the knowledge of his audience while also criticizing progressive viewers who watch his program.

“Guys, man, listen, ladies, gents, I understand this is a conservative political show. I get that there is a preaching to the choir effect, but you’re a very good choir. This, I love you. You guys are very knowledgeable. I read your comments, I get your emails. You guys are the best,” Bongino said.

He concluded by questioning why some viewers continue to support politicians he criticized during the segment.

“But I say to liberals who do tune in, I get the media matters a holes, they tune in every day, they always have some dumb ass comment about the show. I’m asking you, you liberal progressive socialist commies, you’re all the same again. Notice, I didn’t throw in all Democrats, there’s some, you know, coal miners in West Virginia, who may be legacy Democrats from their parents, they love America too. That’s not these people. Okay, that’s not these people. Why are you so freaking stupid? How do you keep falling for this shit?” Bongino said.

Texas Rescuers Save Woman Trapped for Days in Sewage Ravine Amid Brutal Heat [WATCH]

/

A young woman is recovering after emergency crews rescued her from a sewage-filled ravine in Dallas, Texas, where authorities said she had been trapped for several days in extreme heat before being discovered by a passerby, as reported by The New York Post.

The rescue unfolded on June 28 after a young man heard faint cries for help coming from a wooded area behind a nearby high school.

According to authorities, he investigated the sounds and located a woman who was stuck in deep mud and sewage at the bottom of a steep ravine.

At approximately 5:25 p.m. local time, the discovery prompted a coordinated response from the Dallas Police Department and Dallas Fire-Rescue.

First responders faced temperatures reaching 104 degrees as they worked their way through approximately a quarter-mile of difficult terrain to reach the woman.

Emergency personnel navigated the wooded area before pulling her from the mud and transporting her to safety.

Authorities said the woman had been trapped in the ravine for several days before she was found.

After the rescue, paramedics transported her to a local hospital for treatment. Officials said she was suffering from severe dehydration, prolonged exposure to the sun, and other injuries.

Investigators have not said how the woman became trapped in the ravine, and the circumstances leading up to the incident remain under investigation.

Photos released from the scene showed emergency personnel surveying the area where the rescue occurred. Images also showed a pair of shoes near the location where the woman was found.

The operation required close coordination between multiple emergency response agencies, with police officers, firefighters, and paramedics working together throughout the rescue.

In a statement released Monday, the Dallas Police Department recognized the joint effort that brought the woman to safety.

“The well-being of the Dallas community is not something that’s handled by a single agency,” the Dallas Police Department wrote in an X post.

“It takes a collaborative effort from multiple teams and organizations working side-by-side to ensure every person’s safety.”

The department also thanked the emergency personnel who participated in the rescue.

The statement extended the department’s sincere appreciation to the officers, firefighters and paramedics whose “swift action and joint effort saved a young woman who was in desperate need of help.”

Authorities have not released the woman’s identity, and no additional details about her condition have been made public since she was hospitalized.

The incident highlights the dangers posed by prolonged exposure to extreme summer temperatures, particularly in difficult-to-access areas.

In this case, officials credited the actions of the young man who heard the woman’s calls for help and alerted authorities, allowing emergency crews to begin a rescue operation before conditions worsened further.

The investigation into how the woman became stranded remains ongoing. Officials have not indicated whether foul play is suspected or whether the incident was accidental.

Emergency responders have not released additional information regarding the rescue beyond the details included in the department’s public statement.

As investigators continue reviewing the circumstances surrounding the incident, authorities said the successful outcome resulted from the combined efforts of multiple public safety agencies responding under challenging conditions.

Trump Announces Walmart Price Cuts to Honor America’s 250th Birthday, Blasts Biden’s Inflation Disaster [WATCH]

President Donald Trump announced Monday that Walmart plans to reduce prices on selected products as part of the nation’s 250th birthday celebration, adding that he hopes other retailers will follow suit.

The announcement comes days after Trump highlighted a Pennsylvania fuel retailer that lowered gasoline prices ahead of the Independence Day holiday, as reported by the Gateway Pundit.

In a statement released Monday, Trump said Walmart informed his administration that it would reduce prices on numerous items, including a nearly 15% reduction on one pound of ground beef.

Trump’s Laugh-Out-Loud Endorsement of Susan Collins Wrecks Leftist Opponent

According to the president, the price reductions are intended to coincide with events celebrating America’s 250th anniversary.

Trump described Walmart as “one of the biggest, best, and smartest Retailers in America” and said the company agreed to lower prices at the administration’s request.

“Great news! I have just been informed that one of the biggest, best, and smartest Retailers in America, Walmart, will be lowering prices by a lot, at my Administration’s request, to celebrate our great Country’s 250th birthday. Walmart will, in particular, be dropping the price for a pound of ground beef by almost 15%, among many other products. This is a huge deal for the many millions of Americans who, smartly, shop at Walmart, which is a truly patriotic Company who loves the U.S.A.”

Trump also contrasted current economic conditions with those under former President Joe Biden.

“My Administration is lowering prices that Joe Biden incompetently raised with the worst inflation crisis in history, a total disaster along with the Southern Border, the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, and many other failures. Just as I promised, Oil Prices are plummeting FAST, and Gas Prices at the pump are dropping too, just like egg and Prescription Drug prices, which I am bringing down by historic levels. Walmart is stepping up in a big and bold way, and other Retailers should follow the lead of these absolute Patriots. Together, we will make America stronger and greater than ever before!”

The announcement followed earlier statements from Trump encouraging retailers to lower prices for consumers. Last week, he warned businesses against price gouging and said retailers should reduce prices.

“The Retailers must quickly react to this statement, and do what they know is right — DROP YOUR PRICE FOR OUR GREAT AMERICAN PEOPLE! There will be no gouging, which is totally illegal,” Trump said.

Trump also called on California officials to reduce the state’s gasoline tax, arguing that consumers were paying unnecessarily high fuel costs.

“Soon the Tax will be higher than the Product itself, and the United States will not stand for it, nor will the People of California, who are being abused by these ridiculous Taxes, and by their own Government,” he said.

Days before Monday’s announcement, Trump highlighted Pennsylvania-based Freedom Fuel Network after the company lowered gasoline prices on July 3.

“This Retailer is taking the lead, and others should follow,” Trump said. “We are proud to celebrate America’s 250th Birthday in the Great Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, the Birthplace of our very special, one-of-a-kind Declaration of Independence, and where I won BIG in the Presidential Election! America has never been stronger than it is now, and Gas Prices will soon be back to the Record Low Prices Americans enjoyed at the pump before our very successful ‘excursion’ in Iran. Happy Birthday, America!”

Earlier Monday, Trump also shared a Bloomberg article discussing Saudi Arabia’s decision to reduce oil prices, writing, “OIL PRICES COMING DOWN.”

The comments came as the United States and Iran continued discussions following a ceasefire agreement reached after U.S. military strikes on Iranian targets and Iranian attacks on commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz.

Speaking to reporters last week, Trump said, “We hit them very hard for three nights, as you know, but we’re getting along very well, so I call it the denuclearization, and it’s all taking place. It’s all going well.”

At another point, Trump said he preferred reaching an agreement with Iran but indicated military options remained available if negotiations failed.

“And it won’t be tough to finish the job. I’d rather make a deal because I don’t want to affect 91 million people,” the president said.

“We can knock down their bridges in one hour. We can knock out their energy supply. All of those big plants that they built, big, beautiful, modern plants. They had a lot of money. They don’t have any money now. We haven’t given them any money. But we can knock out their electricity and power-generating plants in, I would say, a small part of an afternoon. Every plant will be gone, and they know that.”

Scott Jennings Torches Democrats for Dumping Platner Only After Leftist Accuser Emerges [WATCH]

/

CNN commentator Scott Jennings criticized Democratic leaders Monday for withdrawing their support from Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner following the latest allegations against him, arguing that many of the issues surrounding the candidate had already been publicly known before the newest accusation emerged, as reported by the Gateway Pundit.

The discussion took place during a CNN panel after reports that several Democratic figures had begun distancing themselves from Platner.

The latest developments followed new allegations that prompted some elected officials to end their endorsements and raised new questions about the future of Platner’s Senate campaign.

During the segment, Jennings argued that Democratic officials had already been aware of previous controversies involving Platner before deciding to support his candidacy.

He questioned why those earlier issues did not produce the same response now being seen from members of the party.

Jennings responded to another panelist’s comments about whether Platner had been adequately vetted by insisting the candidate’s past had already been publicly examined.

“The only thing I disagree with is when she said that he hadn’t been vetted.”

“No, he had been vetted!”

Jennings continued by arguing that multiple public figures had already weighed the information surrounding Platner before offering their support.

“All of the things that have been stated, it was all out in the public, and people like Ro Khanna, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, Tim Walz, the Bulwark, Pod Save America, all these people came together to overlook it all, to explain it all, to rationalize it all.”

He also said Democratic voters and donors had continued to back Platner after earlier reports became public.

“He was vetted. People knew all these things, and a whole bunch of Democrats in Maine showed up and voted for him anyway. And a bunch of donors from around the country sent him money anyway.”

Jennings then questioned why Democratic officials were now withdrawing their support.

“I agree with Alyssa’s question. What changed? Why are you bailing on Graham Platner now?!”

During the discussion, Jennings referenced several previously reported controversies involving Platner while arguing that they had not prevented Democratic officials from continuing to support his campaign.

“You already signed off on Nazi tattoo, a self-described communist, somebody who’s had fantasies, somebody who has been on a social media platform known as a playground for predators.”

He concluded by arguing that the newest allegation differed from previous accusations because of the political views of the accuser.

“And on and on and on and on and on.”

“And the difference between this accuser and the previous one is simply this: she’s a liberal. It’s okay, I guess, for Democrats that their candidate’s assault conservatives.”

“But he broke into someone’s house. And apparently, according to her, assaulted her. And because her politics are correct, they can now believe it.”

The CNN exchange came as Platner faced growing political pressure following the latest allegations against him.

Reports published Monday indicated that some Democratic elected officials had withdrawn their endorsements, while campaign events were also being canceled.

Platner has denied allegations made against him. The controversy has continued to draw national attention as questions remain about whether he will continue his Senate campaign.

The latest developments have also intensified debate over how political parties respond to allegations involving their own candidates, with supporters and critics offering sharply different views regarding the timing of Democratic leaders’ decisions to end their support for Platner.
