Very nice. However, Trump didn't start vicious rhetoric. They started before he ever took office in 2017. They threatened him physically, called him a dictator, and said they would start the impeachment. They are criminals on top of it. He's no politician and sometimes I'm amazed at his self control after all this. Phony Russia bullshit, phony impeachments, phony indictments and then they try to kill him. I'm shocked he has this much self control. But good for you.
i actually don't think his "rhetoric" is all that vicious. there are "very bad" people in this country, there is an "enemy within."
everything they say about him- that he's building concentration camps for his enemies (that would be kathy hochul), that he's going to prosecute his political opponents (that would be fani willis, jack smith, juan merchan and arthur engoran), that he's going to turn the military on citizens (that would be the biden administration), that he's an "existential threat to democracy" (that would be the DNC)- is what they're really doing.
HAS gotten people killed. The summer of 'mostly peaceful protests' got 25 people killed. And countless people assaulted and beaten. And arson. And Mom and Pop stores destroyed.
Nothing promotes racial harmony like looting electronics stores. At least that's what Pelosi would have us believe.
The persistent refrain from Kamala and other leading Democrats and their media allies that Trump is a fascistic would-be autocrat who, if re-elected, will "put an end to democracy in America" is a dog-whistle to Democratic-Party election officials, voting-machine programmers, hackers, ballot harvesters, et al. to do whatever they can to minimize the likelihood of such an outcome by any means they think they can get away with. These Chicken Littles are playing with fire.
C'mon, I've heard Trump on Howard Stern, the man is an insult comic at heart. But his opponents are humourless hacks. That being SAID - for everything Trump has said, pales to what Biden, Pelosi, OBAMA, Hillary have DONE ...
Well, we are talking apples and oranges. Yes, he is that, but he STILL never starts insulting people until they insult him. I've watched that carefully.
Trump supporters have been called: deplorables. garbage. white supremacists, fascists, MAGA extremists, anti American, anti women, and anti democracy. In every speech he's given while President Biden has demonized Trump supporters. He has threatened violence. The MSM gleefully piles on. Just the other day, Whoopi said that Hillary was right when she called Trump supporters deplorables. It's no wonder supporters who wear MAGA gear get attacked.
he spewed absurd racist rhetoric about immigrant rapists and murderers on the first day he descended that escalator and he's only doubled, tripled and quadrupled down since then.
I just heard a liberal say that American citizens commit more crimes than illegal immigrants. I don't know how he came to that conclusion when we have not vetted immigrants and they have been released into the country. Like you said we only know a fraction of the crimes committed against citizens by illegal criminals.
And who cares, anyways? What is the optimum ratio of criminal illegal immigrants to criminal citizens that should be tolerated? To me, zero imported criminals.
American citizens outnumber illegal immigrants 10 to 1. Of course we commit "more crimes". But the illegals represent a far more violent and dangerous criminal cohort.
The fact that the relatively small number of serious crimes committed by illegal immigrants is your and Trump's focus is exactly what I'm talking about. It's pure racism. Through and through. The US is literally sending $billions of our taxpayer dollars, without our consent, to fund the killing of tens of thousands of Palestinians as we speak, and I'm guessing you're fine with that. The US military killed directly and indirectly, over a million Iraqis during and in the years after the illegal 2003 invasion of Iraq. And I'm guessing you're ok with that. Coal power resulted in half a million US deaths over twenty years and I'm guessing that's probably not an issue you've followed too closely. https://news.utexas.edu/2023/11/27/coal-power-killed-half-a-million-people-in-u-s-over-two-decades/. So why does immigration get so much political attention? Well, clearly b/c it appeals to the still-racist parts of the country that were former slave states and former Jim Crow states. It's pure demagoguery.
Is there a number of rapes and murders of American citizens by people who entered the country illegally that is unacceptable to you? If it was your child that was raped or murdered, would that be okay, because, you know, you don’t want to be called RAAACIST!! BTW, these people are coming from countries all over the world, and are of different races, ethnicities and skin colors…even white. So, just how is it racist to want to protect our innocent citizens?
As of July 21, 2024, according to a report from ICE Deputy Director Patrick Lechleitner, 435,719 uninvited alien migrants with criminal records and 226,847 others with criminal charges pending against them were on "non-detained" status -- i.e., they'd been let loose in this country pending resolution of asylum claims. If you trust that they'll all dutifully show up for the hearings so they can be readily expelled if their claims are rejected there's a bridge over the East River I'd like to sell ya for a fantastic bargain price!
Absolutely, I can handle assassination attempts, weaponization of our government, open borders, government support of child abuse, experimental drug mandates, attempts to overthrow a newly elected president, lawfare, weaponization of our mainstream media, and imprisoning political opponents but I draw the line when we get to rhetoric.
he was talking about illegal aliens and he was 100% correct about that. he's had to double and triple and quadruple down because the problem has doubled, tripled and quadrupled.
when we went up to NYC for the closing night of phantom of the opera (we both worked on the show when we lived there), we could not stay in our first choice of hotels because it was totally given over to illegal migrants. parks have been closed to citizens so that non-citizens can camp out. the city is spending billions, not on the people who live and work there, but on the invaders.
the democratic mayor of NYC publicly complained that the influx was killing NYC, after which he was "punished" by the party of lawfare.
i have two musician friends, a married couple from russia. they were educated at Yale and now have PhDs. they play in multiple orchestras, teach music at colleges, and commission new works written for them.
it took them years and cost them around $20 grand to finally get their green cards. they had to produce 9000 pages of evidence documenting their suitability for acceptance here. they had to have medical examinations and would have had to "catch up" on all the required vaccines if the doctor hadn't accepted their russian doctor's exemptions. in 5 years, if they commit no crimes and pass a civics test, they will qualify for citizenship and be able at last to vote in our elections (although if the US keeps up it's demented provocation of russia, they'll be taking us there).
contrast this talented hardworking couple with Venezuela taking advantage of our "largess" and emptying out their prisons into our country. let's set impossibly high standards for useful people and have no standards at all for the refuse of other countries.
let me ask you some questions: do you lock your doors and close your windows at night? or do you leave your house wide open for any mugger/rapist to come in and threaten all you hold dear? when you have a dinner party, do you invite people you know and trust or do you let hundreds of unvetted strangers in to eat from your table? do you have house keys and only give copies of those keys to trusted family members or do you hand out sets of keys to every stranger who passes by?
oh come on. these people have no arguments. they just come on to express their feelings. men can be women! let everyone into the country! choose your pronouns! orange man bad! woman of color good! you weren't expecting answers, were you?
There have been roughly 10 million illegal aliens from about 100 countries enter the US during the Biden/Harris administration. Even if 99% are people seeking a better life, that still leaves 100,000 bad people, which includes murderers, rapists, terrorists, etc. Allowing for a small percentage of valid asylum seekers, I question whether most of the rest are good people when they entered our country illegally.
Because the number of rapists and murderers entering our country illegally has only quadrupled and quintupled since Biden said "Surge the border" during the Dem primaries and in the first weeks of his 2020 "win" Biden cancelled the wall, cancelled Remain in Place, reenacted Catch and Release, gave do-nothing Harris the Border Czar position, Etc. Etc. Etc., and had KJ Pierre et al repeatedly deny the border was open to all until about 6 months ago, after giving illegals cell phones, hotels, and flights and bus rides all over the country made it too hard to ignore, coupled with pushback from Democrats such as "Sanctuary City" NYC Mayor Adams who pleaded for it to stop, so the Dems and media flipped on a dime and mimicked the talking point "It's Trump's fault". Yet you'd rather ignore the thousands of minorities who've become crime victims of the many thousands of convicted criminals who are a sizable part of this orchestrated massive influx of illegals, pretending to be hung up on the "racist language" used to describe illegals... Who says they're all minorities? They're people from all over the world, of all different persuasions. In the 80's, was I being racist when I said I don't like the Boston Celtics or Detroit Pistons cuz I loved the Lakers? And all three teams were in the US LEGALLY, playing by the rules.
And guess what? That’s largely what is coming in! MS13, Tren de Aragua, and all sorts of rapists and murderers. And of course, “good people, too” who are still breaking our immigration laws.
When Trump came down the escalator on June 16, 2015 - he talked of other nations sending us their "worst" - rapists, murderers and others. This election day nearly a decade later, he has once again been proven prophetic.
I never thought anything Trump said was bad. His "mean tweets" were honest and accurate. He talks like normal people talk when they say what they are thinking without worrying about offending the perpetually offended. We have to get him enough legal votes to overwhelm the illegal cheating the demoRats always do. They got away with it in 2020 and we all suffered since then because of it. If the demoRats and the deep state they support succeed again, our country is doomed. Every vote for President Trump matters if you care about our country and our citizens.
But he called for Liz Cheney to be executed by firing squad - if you believe the media. 😊 Here in Arizona the Attorney General is investigating him for threatening her life.🤡
It is completely crazy- he clearly was making a basic point many have made before that Cheney might think differently if she had to fight the war herself. People have been making this argument my entire life going back to Vietnam at least. My favorite phrase for it is "the bravery of being out of range" which is a Roger Waters song (and no I am not an antisemite because I have heard a Roger Waters song such is the twisted level of discourse that I need to mention that).
i've actually had women ask me how i could condone someone saying "grab 'em by the pussy" or whatever. these women obviously have no understanding of how men talk when there are no church ladies around.
Well, let's not lose sight about what Trump said about grabbing women has some truth to it. I have seen many women change there whole demeanor when in the process of a rich powerful guy. They will let him do whatever he wants. Not all women, but enough are like this. They get a particular look on their face, it's odd but true . I know that sounds horrible to say, but it is what it is.
it's completely true!!!! women use men for resources and protection. men are built to run around and knock up as many women as possible. women need to "trick" one man into repressing his natural instincts to keep her safe while she raises her young. they make an uneasy deal for the sake of the future.
the richer a man is, the younger and prettier a woman he can get.
my father was charming, personable and handsome with a full head a thick silver hair. he was still driving into his 90's and could make any woman swoon.
still, there were no anna nicole smiths beating down his door. he wasn't rich enough to compensate for his age.
Trump said what every man is thinking but doesn't dare say, lest some nagging school marm rap him on the knuckles.
don't ever apologize for saying what is true, not on my behalf anyway.
Also, why should locker room talk ever be used against any man?
Women would be shocked at what we said about them and their physical attributes. Or maybe not?
In fact, it is Democrats who have pushed the boundaries of what is acceptable to be said and shown in movies, and they have the chutzpah to object when a man they detest actually says such crude things? The left is so full of lies and hypocrisy.
what a great point! yes, there are all those videos of the oprah and the ladies on the view swooning over him, begging him to run for president. oprah suggested that they be running mates! these clips should be played in an endless loop 24/7 a la a clockwork orange. strap them down and force them to watch themselves.
throw rachel madcow into the mix. she should have to watch herself swearing that "the virus STOPS with every vaccinated person" every minute of every day for 10 years
Because Maher is a committed liberal who hates Donald Trump, but he's rational enough to recognize that the media grossly misreprented what Trump said by leaving out the context. And Maher explained this in detail, while taking to task the people who did it.
The AG who "won" by less than 500 votes -- can't stand her.
The media will stop at nothing to twist anything Trump says to mean something it doesn't, and will do everything it can to insist that Biden meant to say something different than we heard and Harris really believes the opposite of everything she said in 2020.
That is so NOT what he said!!! He was talking about her standing the front lines in a combat zone and facing enemy fire. Emphasizing the fact that the Cheney and other Neocons will send our young people into combat to risk death, but have never faced that themselves.
If you listen to his whole conversation and not the carefully cut news clips, it is completely clear. Trump is not terribly articulate, but he never said what you and the Dem atty gen manufactured
I keep thinking of the original Star Trek where Kirk was to be executed by a gladiator on live TV. Is that what we’ll get? Considering I gave $50 to Harriet in the primary to oust Liz, I’m not totally opposed.
You’ve fought for truth for your fellow Americans since 2020. Whatever your choice, you’ve won my respect through your actions. Berenson v Biden. Go Alex!
Since he’s suing the current administration, I would hope he’d vote for Trump! I’m happy that he came to this conclusion. I do understand because I’m not enthralled with Trump’s rhetoric. I’m mainly voting for him because of the horrible way the Biden/Harris administration handled the COVID debacle, in addition to the coalition of people he’s assembled. I’m very much looking forward to seeing what this group can accomplish. First time in my life I have voted an entirely Republican ticket and I’m a registered Democrat.
Congrats on having the courage to take a stand! This election is not about electing the “ most popular “. It’s about saving our country from the incredible hate and evil that’s overtaken the democrats.
"Elite School Will Provide Counselors for Students Distressed by Election"
That headline from the NYT yesterday summarizes partly why I am. That and I love RFK Jr and the Means siblings. Calley has a stream of consciousness articulateness that I've never heard before in my life. If he's anywhere in a Trump administration, along with RFK Jr, we all win. The bigger reason is I will never, ever, ever to the nth power, forget what the Biden-Harris administration did during Covid.
I remember our grandson telling his Kindergarten teacher, when Pres Trump won in 2016, “The bad guy won,” to which she totally commiserated. He’s now an 8th grader & I’m wondering what he’ll say if, please dear God, we have another Trump presidency!
There are aspects of the next four years that will fade, like mean tweets. But the destruction of separation of powers and free spedch will last. The choice is actually not difficult.
Better late than never to come around. Glad to see Dr. Naomi Wolf also is voting for Trump after much reflection like you. His unwillingness to promise to abide by the results of Tuesday’s election is not dangerous it’s necessary after what happened in 2020. His friendly attitude towards dictators like Vladimir Putin is called diplomacy and may prevent wars and cross border invasions. Congratulations on being on the right side of history!
Thank you for the comment on diplomacy. The US has been war mongering so long and "successfully" that no one seems to understand the meaning of diplomatic solutions.
“that opened America’s southern border until public outcry forced it closed”…Alex, it is anything but closed! And it is now revealed that the Biden/Harris administration has been working with a global organization to FACILITATE the invasion, something we all knew in our guts but we now have the receipts. Thank you from one American to another for standing against it.
The Daily Wire reported today that they are paying DHS staff overtime to approve more "temporary asylum seekers" for the next 120 days ... and that most of the staff approving the applications work from home, rely on the applications submitted with no verification.
It’s not just Trump. It’s who he brings in train: Vance, obvs. But also RFK Jr, Nicole Shanahan, Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk and now even Ron Paul.
Would be ironic - and kind of epic - if Trump the trash-talker becomes the great uniter of all the dissidents and subversives of left and right, who are in fact the large majority of Americans.
He’ll need a lot of discipline in office to accomplish it, though. So I won’t hold my breath. I will vote for him though, to get Ross Ulbricht free.
Has Ron Paul actually endorsed Trump? I checked Google and no mention of an endorsement. I believe Rand, his son, has indicated he is supportive, but has not endorsed him. I think Elon either introduced, or embraced, the idea of Ron working with him on cost-cutting. Should Trump win, I would hope that he would welcome Paul. No more loyalty tests.
Dr Paul has said he would be willing to help Elon Musk with the D.O.G.E. And he expressed approval of the $2 trillion figure that Elon floated as the amount he would like to take out of the federal budget.
As far as abiding by the election, he has said “as long as there is no cheating” which I think makes sense! We know they’re trying their darndest to cheat!
Since Trump is Hilter and is an "existential threat" to democracy, according to the Dems, then they have a moral obligation to cheat in order to "save" democracy. They have no choice, right?
Alex, I thought I'd never vote for Trump again (only 2016) after he referred to himself as the Father of the Vaccine. Then Mr. Operation Warp Speed added RFK JR and Tulsi that made me give pause on my upset. NOW Elon and RON friggin PAUL...I believe there's opportunity to make a difference in the same ole political game. There are no lobbyists on the transition team. No new wars. I'm in CA like you, it most likely will not matter how we vote but I will VOTE TRUMP for change. THANK YOU for writing this.
For all of you who do not live in battleground or red states, your vote for Trump would help him to win the popular vote. That would be a great message to send to the Democrats.
I have been told that Cali is in reality a red state but it is being controlled by an entrenched blue machine. At the very least it seems that blue wins tend to obscure just how many red votes are cast.
Sounds reasonable to me. We’ll see what the numbers show this year in CA. Yes every vote counts! I’ve been saying this to my friends who would vote Trump/Vance in this election but say their vote won’t matter. Hopefully I have convinced them to cast it.
I'm 63 years old and voted for the Democrats since I was in college - almost 40 years. I voted for Clinton in 2016 and was upset she didn't win and the country didn't have its first woman president. I was good Democrat (except for 1 thing below) and thought I was "better" than the Republicans as I believed all the liberal media presented to me about these people. After Trump was in office for about a year, I started feeling like it was beating a dead horse (how many times do you need to tell me he's this or that - the joke not funny after the 500,000th time) and Trump was a constant, obsessive topic with my liberal friends and my friends became as annoying with this as the media was. Then COVID hit and I was not into it from the start. Not one minute. That was the beginning of the end for me and the Dems. I saw my friends give up their values as soon as they were afraid of something. I lived in a state (NJ) that set up a hotline so residents could call in and rat out their neighbors for not abiding by the insane rules. I lived in a town along the Delaware River and used to run on the path along the river almost daily and they shut it down and plastered it with signs telling you to wear mask. I ripped down every sign I could everywhere I went and threw them out. I was a naughty girl. When I went to the grocery store I didn't put a mask on until I got in and left my nose out and made a dramatic ripping of it of when I left the store. What really bothered me was the men wearing the mask. I thought right from the start "What happened to men?" Why are they all going along with this - don't they stand up for anything anymore?
I didn't vote in the 2020 election for the first time in decades. Couldn't do it. I wasn't going to vote in this - just didn't want to vote for either side but recently have been watching a lot of interviews with people who were hurt by the this nonsense on the left and I watched Trump on Joe Rogan and thought - I 'm gonna do it and vote for Trump.
I didn't think I could do it either Alex but I'm going to. So as someone who has a 28 -year old son with autism and has been involved in the vaccines and autism fight since he was 3 years old - I'm waiting for hell to freeze over again with you and you come around to something even more difficult than voting for Trump. To be able to bear the idea of the unbearable. That there's a connection between vaccines and autism and we all played Russian Roulette with our children.
Like you, I was extremely disappointed in the men who wore masks and scolded me when I refused. I, too, am THRILLED that RFK jr will have the opportunity to address valid concerns with the godawful childhood vaccinations forced on our young ones. God bless you and your precious son.
Lori, I don’t know if you read or subscribe to Dr McCullough’s Courageous Discourses but he recently posted about a huge study covering the skyrocketing autism increase between 2011and 2022. I clipped the findings from it and posted them as a reply to Alex on X — with the challenge: ok, you explain it. Maybe with RFK in the WH Admin he can get ahold of suppressed data on infant seizures and suchlike.
I was a school nurse in NYC for 16 years. One of my schools had a 32-seat autism program.
My observation is that at least half those kids were NOT autistic or "on the spectrum" as the "experts" like to say. Some of them were what we used to call mildly to moderately "retarded." Some were exhibiting severe behavior problems. Others had significant neurological deficits probably due to genetic syndromes. So part of the problem is over-diagnosis. That being said, it was obvious that as the immunization schedule increased over the years so did the incidence of chronic illness in school-age children. Everything from Type 1 diabetes to food allergies/intolerances has a suspicious etiology. Truly a disaster.
As a mother and pediatric nurse practitioner I've come to believe that there's a definite connection between vaccines and many conditions - not just autism. I worked in the NYC public school system for 16 years and witnessed ever-expanding incidences of food allergies, asthma, and autoimmune diseases (especially the gastrointestinal variety).
On a personal note: My son was a healthy 13-year-old who had embarked on what was probably his final growth spurt. We were homeschooling & there was a possibility he might choose to go to a traditional high school, so I took him to get the HepB vaccine (mandated for NYC schools in 1999). About a month after the last dose his health basically collapsed. He not only stopped growing, he fell off his growth curve completely (height & weight) & developed irritable bowel syndrome & reflux. He has never fully recovered, but has managed to make a life for himself.
Perhaps the vaccine was not the cause, but I cannot shake the feeling that it was - & I was the one who signed the consent. Ironically, he chose to continue to homeschool thru the high school years, so he never needed that vaccine (colleges only cared about the MMR at that time).
He managed to get through college & law school very successfully, but there were countless medical visits during that time. Also ironically, his practice area specialty is medical malpractice.
One important thing you left out. The Democrats favor the drugging and mutilation of gender-confused teens, which is as evil as it gets. I have no doubt Kamala will support this terrible policy, which Tim Walz actively advanced in Minnesota.
That was his "click there heels three times" part, which doesn't even begin to describe the criminality involved in the trans psychotherapy & sex change butchery of minors going on in the medical community, but it at least got a mention in this...applause anyways
She supported paying for transition surgeries for illegals and prisoners during her brief run for President in 2019. And she says her values haven't changed.
Listen to KH's interviews before 2020 primaries and then listen to her now. You can hear a difference in her tone of voice. Now she can't speak without coaching and the teleprompter. Her words and actions of pre 2020 are her true values. That is exactly what she will push if elected president. And note that her high school years were spent in Canada not the US.
Very nice. However, Trump didn't start vicious rhetoric. They started before he ever took office in 2017. They threatened him physically, called him a dictator, and said they would start the impeachment. They are criminals on top of it. He's no politician and sometimes I'm amazed at his self control after all this. Phony Russia bullshit, phony impeachments, phony indictments and then they try to kill him. I'm shocked he has this much self control. But good for you.
i actually don't think his "rhetoric" is all that vicious. there are "very bad" people in this country, there is an "enemy within."
everything they say about him- that he's building concentration camps for his enemies (that would be kathy hochul), that he's going to prosecute his political opponents (that would be fani willis, jack smith, juan merchan and arthur engoran), that he's going to turn the military on citizens (that would be the biden administration), that he's an "existential threat to democracy" (that would be the DNC)- is what they're really doing.
every accusation is an admission.
I agree. It's mostly stuff in fun. What they do is dangerous and will get someone killed.
HAS gotten people killed. The summer of 'mostly peaceful protests' got 25 people killed. And countless people assaulted and beaten. And arson. And Mom and Pop stores destroyed.
Nothing promotes racial harmony like looting electronics stores. At least that's what Pelosi would have us believe.
And never forget Fireman Comperatore
Yeah, that's true. I just wonder if we can really get rid of these people. Boy.
The persistent refrain from Kamala and other leading Democrats and their media allies that Trump is a fascistic would-be autocrat who, if re-elected, will "put an end to democracy in America" is a dog-whistle to Democratic-Party election officials, voting-machine programmers, hackers, ballot harvesters, et al. to do whatever they can to minimize the likelihood of such an outcome by any means they think they can get away with. These Chicken Littles are playing with fire.
so true. they blame him for "inciting" the jan 6 protests and then blame him for "inciting" his own assassination attempts
🎯
Quite so. And rather obviously.
C'mon, I've heard Trump on Howard Stern, the man is an insult comic at heart. But his opponents are humourless hacks. That being SAID - for everything Trump has said, pales to what Biden, Pelosi, OBAMA, Hillary have DONE ...
Well, we are talking apples and oranges. Yes, he is that, but he STILL never starts insulting people until they insult him. I've watched that carefully.
Also, Trump goes after individuals in power -- the Democrats insult the masses who disagree with them.
Yes, big difference!
This is a great point never took that into consideration
Trump supporters have been called: deplorables. garbage. white supremacists, fascists, MAGA extremists, anti American, anti women, and anti democracy. In every speech he's given while President Biden has demonized Trump supporters. He has threatened violence. The MSM gleefully piles on. Just the other day, Whoopi said that Hillary was right when she called Trump supporters deplorables. It's no wonder supporters who wear MAGA gear get attacked.
And YES, it pales to what they have DONE. I judge people by their actions, not their words.
Mostly all true but you missed one crucial point: Trump doesn't punch down.
Thank you for this comment.
Very well written.
he spewed absurd racist rhetoric about immigrant rapists and murderers on the first day he descended that escalator and he's only doubled, tripled and quadrupled down since then.
He is talking about people breaking our laws and how many are murderers and criminals. He was right.
He did. He has also been proven correct. You must not be aware of the facts
If you only follow MSM you never get the FACTS

Thank you for remembering the names of the victims of illegal immigrant crime. Our President? (Biden) and VP Harris have ignored them.
And these names represent only a fraction of US citizens harmed / killed by illegal criminals.
I just heard a liberal say that American citizens commit more crimes than illegal immigrants. I don't know how he came to that conclusion when we have not vetted immigrants and they have been released into the country. Like you said we only know a fraction of the crimes committed against citizens by illegal criminals.
And who cares, anyways? What is the optimum ratio of criminal illegal immigrants to criminal citizens that should be tolerated? To me, zero imported criminals.
American citizens outnumber illegal immigrants 10 to 1. Of course we commit "more crimes". But the illegals represent a far more violent and dangerous criminal cohort.
The fact that the relatively small number of serious crimes committed by illegal immigrants is your and Trump's focus is exactly what I'm talking about. It's pure racism. Through and through.

So why does immigration get so much political attention? Well, clearly b/c it appeals to the still-racist parts of the country that were former slave states and former Jim Crow states. It's pure demagoguery.
We can't support infinity illegal immigrants. That's common sense, not racism.
Is there a number of rapes and murders of American citizens by people who entered the country illegally that is unacceptable to you? If it was your child that was raped or murdered, would that be okay, because, you know, you don’t want to be called RAAACIST!! BTW, these people are coming from countries all over the world, and are of different races, ethnicities and skin colors…even white. So, just how is it racist to want to protect our innocent citizens?
As of July 21, 2024, according to a report from ICE Deputy Director Patrick Lechleitner, 435,719 uninvited alien migrants with criminal records and 226,847 others with criminal charges pending against them were on "non-detained" status -- i.e., they'd been let loose in this country pending resolution of asylum claims.

He is very clear he is talking about illegal immigration.
Absolutely, I can handle assassination attempts, weaponization of our government, open borders, government support of child abuse, experimental drug mandates, attempts to overthrow a newly elected president, lawfare, weaponization of our mainstream media, and imprisoning political opponents but I draw the line when we get to rhetoric.
Now THAT is meaningful sarcasm! (Which is mostly so overused)
Yes! Watch your language! (face plant)
he was talking about illegal aliens and he was 100% correct about that. he's had to double and triple and quadruple down because the problem has doubled, tripled and quadrupled.
when we went up to NYC for the closing night of phantom of the opera (we both worked on the show when we lived there), we could not stay in our first choice of hotels because it was totally given over to illegal migrants. parks have been closed to citizens so that non-citizens can camp out. the city is spending billions, not on the people who live and work there, but on the invaders.
the democratic mayor of NYC publicly complained that the influx was killing NYC, after which he was "punished" by the party of lawfare.
i have two musician friends, a married couple from russia. they were educated at Yale and now have PhDs. they play in multiple orchestras, teach music at colleges, and commission new works written for them.
it took them years and cost them around $20 grand to finally get their green cards. they had to produce 9000 pages of evidence documenting their suitability for acceptance here. they had to have medical examinations and would have had to "catch up" on all the required vaccines if the doctor hadn't accepted their russian doctor's exemptions. in 5 years, if they commit no crimes and pass a civics test, they will qualify for citizenship and be able at last to vote in our elections (although if the US keeps up it's demented provocation of russia, they'll be taking us there).
contrast this talented hardworking couple with Venezuela taking advantage of our "largess" and emptying out their prisons into our country. let's set impossibly high standards for useful people and have no standards at all for the refuse of other countries.
let me ask you some questions: do you lock your doors and close your windows at night? or do you leave your house wide open for any mugger/rapist to come in and threaten all you hold dear? when you have a dinner party, do you invite people you know and trust or do you let hundreds of unvetted strangers in to eat from your table? do you have house keys and only give copies of those keys to trusted family members or do you hand out sets of keys to every stranger who passes by?
Yo, Tam Hunt: three days have gone by since Carolyn K put those questions to you and you have yet to answer them. Cat got your tongue?
oh come on. these people have no arguments. they just come on to express their feelings. men can be women! let everyone into the country! choose your pronouns! orange man bad! woman of color good! you weren't expecting answers, were you?
let's make a pact- ask everyone on the open border side those questions. see if you every get an answer
I would suggest you speak with the Mothers of these brutally raped and killed daughters by ILLEGALs. Yea right...he is spewing WTF!
And the Afghanistan horror!
There have been roughly 10 million illegal aliens from about 100 countries enter the US during the Biden/Harris administration. Even if 99% are people seeking a better life, that still leaves 100,000 bad people, which includes murderers, rapists, terrorists, etc. Allowing for a small percentage of valid asylum seekers, I question whether most of the rest are good people when they entered our country illegally.
I am Hispanic, and with my God-given Hispanic wisdom I officially declare on behalf of my people that some Hispanics are indeed rapists and murderers!
Furthermore, the smarter Hispanic countries are basically emptying their prisons and sending their worst here.
Have you seen Scarface? It's like that in real life, but much less cool.
And if you are a liberal, you must acquiesce to my primitive wisdom unless you are gay and black and mentally disabled.
I do not make the rules.
Racist how? Absurd, why? Absurd and racist to who?
Special snowflake alert!
Because they are still walking the streets and stalking the good people.
And most of us loved him for it. Finally, someone pointing out the obvious.
Because the number of rapists and murderers entering our country illegally has only quadrupled and quintupled since Biden said "Surge the border" during the Dem primaries and in the first weeks of his 2020 "win" Biden cancelled the wall, cancelled Remain in Place, reenacted Catch and Release, gave do-nothing Harris the Border Czar position, Etc. Etc. Etc., and had KJ Pierre et al repeatedly deny the border was open to all until about 6 months ago, after giving illegals cell phones, hotels, and flights and bus rides all over the country made it too hard to ignore, coupled with pushback from Democrats such as "Sanctuary City" NYC Mayor Adams who pleaded for it to stop, so the Dems and media flipped on a dime and mimicked the talking point "It's Trump's fault". Yet you'd rather ignore the thousands of minorities who've become crime victims of the many thousands of convicted criminals who are a sizable part of this orchestrated massive influx of illegals, pretending to be hung up on the "racist language" used to describe illegals... Who says they're all minorities? They're people from all over the world, of all different persuasions. In the 80's, was I being racist when I said I don't like the Boston Celtics or Detroit Pistons cuz I loved the Lakers? And all three teams were in the US LEGALLY, playing by the rules.
And guess what? That’s largely what is coming in! MS13, Tren de Aragua, and all sorts of rapists and murderers. And of course, “good people, too” who are still breaking our immigration laws.
absurd??? how about true?
When Trump came down the escalator on June 16, 2015 - he talked of other nations sending us their "worst" - rapists, murderers and others. This election day nearly a decade later, he has once again been proven prophetic.
I never thought anything Trump said was bad. His "mean tweets" were honest and accurate. He talks like normal people talk when they say what they are thinking without worrying about offending the perpetually offended. We have to get him enough legal votes to overwhelm the illegal cheating the demoRats always do. They got away with it in 2020 and we all suffered since then because of it. If the demoRats and the deep state they support succeed again, our country is doomed. Every vote for President Trump matters if you care about our country and our citizens.
But he called for Liz Cheney to be executed by firing squad - if you believe the media. 😊 Here in Arizona the Attorney General is investigating him for threatening her life.🤡
Are you joking? Listen to his actual speech, he never said that! That's the Democrat spin taking it out of context.
Look at my emojis. The media constantly lies about Trump and the Arizona AG is a joke.
Right.. I missed it. Sorry 😞
I saw that, Bob. But, I still thought your post would be misinterpreted. Even with emoji's sacrasm is hard to pull of in a post.
Like I wrote above - sarcasm is mostly overused these days. The tonal expression is often the key.
but the dems are happy to waste your tax dollars staging a show trial that will be tossed out of court
Yeah, he never threatened anybody, he just said Liz is too cowardly to face an opposing army but has no problem forcing your children to do so.
It is completely crazy- he clearly was making a basic point many have made before that Cheney might think differently if she had to fight the war herself. People have been making this argument my entire life going back to Vietnam at least. My favorite phrase for it is "the bravery of being out of range" which is a Roger Waters song (and no I am not an antisemite because I have heard a Roger Waters song such is the twisted level of discourse that I need to mention that).
i've actually had women ask me how i could condone someone saying "grab 'em by the pussy" or whatever. these women obviously have no understanding of how men talk when there are no church ladies around.
Well, let's not lose sight about what Trump said about grabbing women has some truth to it. I have seen many women change there whole demeanor when in the process of a rich powerful guy. They will let him do whatever he wants. Not all women, but enough are like this. They get a particular look on their face, it's odd but true . I know that sounds horrible to say, but it is what it is.
it's completely true!!!! women use men for resources and protection. men are built to run around and knock up as many women as possible. women need to "trick" one man into repressing his natural instincts to keep her safe while she raises her young. they make an uneasy deal for the sake of the future.
the richer a man is, the younger and prettier a woman he can get.
my father was charming, personable and handsome with a full head a thick silver hair. he was still driving into his 90's and could make any woman swoon.
still, there were no anna nicole smiths beating down his door. he wasn't rich enough to compensate for his age.
Trump said what every man is thinking but doesn't dare say, lest some nagging school marm rap him on the knuckles.
don't ever apologize for saying what is true, not on my behalf anyway.
As a woman, I agree completely with you. Isn’t that what Kamala Harris did?
Also, why should locker room talk ever be used against any man?
Women would be shocked at what we said about them and their physical attributes. Or maybe not?
In fact, it is Democrats who have pushed the boundaries of what is acceptable to be said and shown in movies, and they have the chutzpah to object when a man they detest actually says such crude things? The left is so full of lies and hypocrisy.
Kissinger made the same but more diplomatically, “Power is the strongest aphrodisiac.”
He was a Democrat when he said that, it was public comment, and the Democrats loved him then and had no issue with that comment
what a great point! yes, there are all those videos of the oprah and the ladies on the view swooning over him, begging him to run for president. oprah suggested that they be running mates! these clips should be played in an endless loop 24/7 a la a clockwork orange. strap them down and force them to watch themselves.
throw rachel madcow into the mix. she should have to watch herself swearing that "the virus STOPS with every vaccinated person" every minute of every day for 10 years
Clearly, you haven't read the details OR listened to what Bill Maher had to say about that incident.
Look at my emojis. The media constantly lies about Trump and the Arizona AG is a joke.
Why would I care about what Bill Maher had to say about anything,.
Because Maher is a committed liberal who hates Donald Trump, but he's rational enough to recognize that the media grossly misreprented what Trump said by leaving out the context. And Maher explained this in detail, while taking to task the people who did it.
Actually, Maher has been on the right side of the argument a lot lately. His guests can't stand it.
it would be amazing if maher was able to shake off his TDS and vote for DJT
The AG who "won" by less than 500 votes -- can't stand her.
The media will stop at nothing to twist anything Trump says to mean something it doesn't, and will do everything it can to insist that Biden meant to say something different than we heard and Harris really believes the opposite of everything she said in 2020.
She won as much as the gov did. Ahem.
If the Donald is such a villain, why do they have to lie?
The media always twists what Trump says.
That is so NOT what he said!!! He was talking about her standing the front lines in a combat zone and facing enemy fire. Emphasizing the fact that the Cheney and other Neocons will send our young people into combat to risk death, but have never faced that themselves.
If you listen to his whole conversation and not the carefully cut news clips, it is completely clear. Trump is not terribly articulate, but he never said what you and the Dem atty gen manufactured
Total B.S.
Yes. Trump uses hyperbole to make his point but the fundamental point is always sound.
The gov and AG of AZ are cheap fakes. At best.
No he did not. As previously stated listen to his exact words.
I keep thinking of the original Star Trek where Kirk was to be executed by a gladiator on live TV. Is that what we’ll get? Considering I gave $50 to Harriet in the primary to oust Liz, I’m not totally opposed.
Will this be before or after bombing The View?
And the things he says about his “Former Democrat Friends” is full-on truth. They used to trust him to play along…he just happens to have a soul.
You’ve fought for truth for your fellow Americans since 2020. Whatever your choice, you’ve won my respect through your actions. Berenson v Biden. Go Alex!
Since he’s suing the current administration, I would hope he’d vote for Trump! I’m happy that he came to this conclusion. I do understand because I’m not enthralled with Trump’s rhetoric. I’m mainly voting for him because of the horrible way the Biden/Harris administration handled the COVID debacle, in addition to the coalition of people he’s assembled. I’m very much looking forward to seeing what this group can accomplish. First time in my life I have voted an entirely Republican ticket and I’m a registered Democrat.
He has fought a lot for the Cheney coalition that supports war in the Ukraine, but all good things must come to an end!
💯!!!
Congrats on having the courage to take a stand! This election is not about electing the “ most popular “. It’s about saving our country from the incredible hate and evil that’s overtaken the democrats.
"Elite School Will Provide Counselors for Students Distressed by Election"
That headline from the NYT yesterday summarizes partly why I am. That and I love RFK Jr and the Means siblings. Calley has a stream of consciousness articulateness that I've never heard before in my life. If he's anywhere in a Trump administration, along with RFK Jr, we all win. The bigger reason is I will never, ever, ever to the nth power, forget what the Biden-Harris administration did during Covid.
I remember our grandson telling his Kindergarten teacher, when Pres Trump won in 2016, “The bad guy won,” to which she totally commiserated. He’s now an 8th grader & I’m wondering what he’ll say if, please dear God, we have another Trump presidency!
The Mean siblings are ok and bring out some interesting topics but if the female quit during her chief residency year, something is very off. Very.
Totally agree!!!
There are aspects of the next four years that will fade, like mean tweets. But the destruction of separation of powers and free spedch will last. The choice is actually not difficult.
Better late than never to come around. Glad to see Dr. Naomi Wolf also is voting for Trump after much reflection like you. His unwillingness to promise to abide by the results of Tuesday’s election is not dangerous it’s necessary after what happened in 2020. His friendly attitude towards dictators like Vladimir Putin is called diplomacy and may prevent wars and cross border invasions. Congratulations on being on the right side of history!
Thank you for the comment on diplomacy. The US has been war mongering so long and "successfully" that no one seems to understand the meaning of diplomatic solutions.
Damnit. I was not prepared for "hell freezing over" today. You are a good dude, Alex. Got your back with the lawsuit buddy.
I know! I was prepared for "my wife won't divorce me if I stay out of this election, too!"
Something amazing is about to happen!
“that opened America’s southern border until public outcry forced it closed”…Alex, it is anything but closed! And it is now revealed that the Biden/Harris administration has been working with a global organization to FACILITATE the invasion, something we all knew in our guts but we now have the receipts. Thank you from one American to another for standing against it.
Biden-Harris never stopped flying illegal immigrants into the country while they supposedly "closed" the border.
The Daily Wire reported today that they are paying DHS staff overtime to approve more "temporary asylum seekers" for the next 120 days ... and that most of the staff approving the applications work from home, rely on the applications submitted with no verification.
It's true they have no idea who most of these illegal immigrants are. Now they are using our tax dollars to make us less safe.
It’s not just Trump. It’s who he brings in train: Vance, obvs. But also RFK Jr, Nicole Shanahan, Tulsi Gabbard, Elon Musk and now even Ron Paul.
Would be ironic - and kind of epic - if Trump the trash-talker becomes the great uniter of all the dissidents and subversives of left and right, who are in fact the large majority of Americans.
He’ll need a lot of discipline in office to accomplish it, though. So I won’t hold my breath. I will vote for him though, to get Ross Ulbricht free.
Has Ron Paul actually endorsed Trump? I checked Google and no mention of an endorsement. I believe Rand, his son, has indicated he is supportive, but has not endorsed him. I think Elon either introduced, or embraced, the idea of Ron working with him on cost-cutting. Should Trump win, I would hope that he would welcome Paul. No more loyalty tests.
Dr Paul has said he would be willing to help Elon Musk with the D.O.G.E. And he expressed approval of the $2 trillion figure that Elon floated as the amount he would like to take out of the federal budget.
Thanks for answering my question. Dr. Paul working to reduce our bloated government spending is "devoutly to be wished".
As far as abiding by the election, he has said “as long as there is no cheating” which I think makes sense! We know they’re trying their darndest to cheat!
Democrats are less committed to honoring a disliked result than he is. And they all know it.
Since Trump is Hilter and is an "existential threat" to democracy, according to the Dems, then they have a moral obligation to cheat in order to "save" democracy. They have no choice, right?
I’m afraid PA is very awake and catching them. But that there are other swing states / areas like Maricopa county where we aren’t finding them. Yet …
Bravo, Alex! Well reasoned and as you put it: the only choice.
Alex, I thought I'd never vote for Trump again (only 2016) after he referred to himself as the Father of the Vaccine. Then Mr. Operation Warp Speed added RFK JR and Tulsi that made me give pause on my upset. NOW Elon and RON friggin PAUL...I believe there's opportunity to make a difference in the same ole political game. There are no lobbyists on the transition team. No new wars. I'm in CA like you, it most likely will not matter how we vote but I will VOTE TRUMP for change. THANK YOU for writing this.
For all of you who do not live in battleground or red states, your vote for Trump would help him to win the popular vote. That would be a great message to send to the Democrats.
I voted today in CA- straight R ticket for the first time in my life
Yes please those of you in CA or NY etc. and think your votes don’t matter, PLEASE vote anyway! Especially non-D voters. :)
I have been told that Cali is in reality a red state but it is being controlled by an entrenched blue machine. At the very least it seems that blue wins tend to obscure just how many red votes are cast.
Sounds reasonable to me. We’ll see what the numbers show this year in CA. Yes every vote counts! I’ve been saying this to my friends who would vote Trump/Vance in this election but say their vote won’t matter. Hopefully I have convinced them to cast it.
2024 marks the year of awakening from the Jones Plantation.
Omg… he’s added Ron Paul?!!! 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
Appreciate your honesty .
I'm 63 years old and voted for the Democrats since I was in college - almost 40 years. I voted for Clinton in 2016 and was upset she didn't win and the country didn't have its first woman president. I was good Democrat (except for 1 thing below) and thought I was "better" than the Republicans as I believed all the liberal media presented to me about these people. After Trump was in office for about a year, I started feeling like it was beating a dead horse (how many times do you need to tell me he's this or that - the joke not funny after the 500,000th time) and Trump was a constant, obsessive topic with my liberal friends and my friends became as annoying with this as the media was. Then COVID hit and I was not into it from the start. Not one minute. That was the beginning of the end for me and the Dems. I saw my friends give up their values as soon as they were afraid of something. I lived in a state (NJ) that set up a hotline so residents could call in and rat out their neighbors for not abiding by the insane rules. I lived in a town along the Delaware River and used to run on the path along the river almost daily and they shut it down and plastered it with signs telling you to wear mask. I ripped down every sign I could everywhere I went and threw them out. I was a naughty girl. When I went to the grocery store I didn't put a mask on until I got in and left my nose out and made a dramatic ripping of it of when I left the store. What really bothered me was the men wearing the mask. I thought right from the start "What happened to men?" Why are they all going along with this - don't they stand up for anything anymore?
I didn't vote in the 2020 election for the first time in decades. Couldn't do it. I wasn't going to vote in this - just didn't want to vote for either side but recently have been watching a lot of interviews with people who were hurt by the this nonsense on the left and I watched Trump on Joe Rogan and thought - I 'm gonna do it and vote for Trump.
I didn't think I could do it either Alex but I'm going to. So as someone who has a 28 -year old son with autism and has been involved in the vaccines and autism fight since he was 3 years old - I'm waiting for hell to freeze over again with you and you come around to something even more difficult than voting for Trump. To be able to bear the idea of the unbearable. That there's a connection between vaccines and autism and we all played Russian Roulette with our children.
Like you, I was extremely disappointed in the men who wore masks and scolded me when I refused. I, too, am THRILLED that RFK jr will have the opportunity to address valid concerns with the godawful childhood vaccinations forced on our young ones. God bless you and your precious son.
I thought this laid out the connection very plainly: "International scientists have found autism's cause. What will Americans do?" -- https://jbhandley.substack.com/p/international-scientists-have-found
I hope Trump lets Kennedy actually do something about this!
RFK Jr is going to do right by your son, and so many others like him! Welcome to the right side!
Lori, I don’t know if you read or subscribe to Dr McCullough’s Courageous Discourses but he recently posted about a huge study covering the skyrocketing autism increase between 2011and 2022. I clipped the findings from it and posted them as a reply to Alex on X — with the challenge: ok, you explain it. Maybe with RFK in the WH Admin he can get ahold of suppressed data on infant seizures and suchlike.
I was a school nurse in NYC for 16 years. One of my schools had a 32-seat autism program.
My observation is that at least half those kids were NOT autistic or "on the spectrum" as the "experts" like to say. Some of them were what we used to call mildly to moderately "retarded." Some were exhibiting severe behavior problems. Others had significant neurological deficits probably due to genetic syndromes. So part of the problem is over-diagnosis. That being said, it was obvious that as the immunization schedule increased over the years so did the incidence of chronic illness in school-age children. Everything from Type 1 diabetes to food allergies/intolerances has a suspicious etiology. Truly a disaster.

As a mother and pediatric nurse practitioner I've come to believe that there's a definite connection between vaccines and many conditions - not just autism. I worked in the NYC public school system for 16 years and witnessed ever-expanding incidences of food allergies, asthma, and autoimmune diseases (especially the gastrointestinal variety).
On a personal note: My son was a healthy 13-year-old who had embarked on what was probably his final growth spurt. We were homeschooling & there was a possibility he might choose to go to a traditional high school, so I took him to get the HepB vaccine (mandated for NYC schools in 1999). About a month after the last dose his health basically collapsed. He not only stopped growing, he fell off his growth curve completely (height & weight) & developed irritable bowel syndrome & reflux. He has never fully recovered, but has managed to make a life for himself.
Perhaps the vaccine was not the cause, but I cannot shake the feeling that it was - & I was the one who signed the consent. Ironically, he chose to continue to homeschool thru the high school years, so he never needed that vaccine (colleges only cared about the MMR at that time).
He managed to get through college & law school very successfully, but there were countless medical visits during that time. Also ironically, his practice area specialty is medical malpractice.

One important thing you left out. The Democrats favor the drugging and mutilation of gender-confused teens, which is as evil as it gets. I have no doubt Kamala will support this terrible policy, which Tim Walz actively advanced in Minnesota.
That was his "click there heels three times" part, which doesn't even begin to describe the criminality involved in the trans psychotherapy & sex change butchery of minors going on in the medical community, but it at least got a mention in this...applause anyways
...their heels
She supported paying for transition surgeries for illegals and prisoners during her brief run for President in 2019. And she says her values haven't changed.
Listen to KH's interviews before 2020 primaries and then listen to her now. You can hear a difference in her tone of voice. Now she can't speak without coaching and the teleprompter. Her words and actions of pre 2020 are her true values. That is exactly what she will push if elected president. And note that her high school years were spent in Canada not the US.
