Trump saluted America in A #MAGA July 4 event, despite critics, What Do you Think About His Speech?Trump salutes America in elaborate July 4 event, despite critics -- and a downpour of rainDespite concerns that he would use the Fourth of July event as a glorified campaign rally, President Trump used his “Salute to America” speech Thursday evening to praise the men and women of the armed forces and American exceptionalism. With the Lincoln Memorial as a backdrop and flanked by camouflaged Bradley fighting vehicles, Trump stuck mainly to the script during his speech – praising the spirit that “runs through the veins of every American patriot” and attempting to strike a more unifying and conciliatory tone than he is generally known to take.While Trump's speech set a unifying tone, the lead-up to the event was far from harmonious – with Trump’s opponents,especially 2020 Democratic presidential candidates, slamming him on everything from the cost of the event to the perceived exploitation of the holiday for a poli

.@AOC ain't nothing but s Hounddog just crying/lying all the time.. do you think the news covers her way too much?Ocasio-Cortez continues to compare border conditions to 'concentration camps,' critics accuse her of misinformation campaignU.S. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., has sparked controversy in recent weeks with arguably increasingly inflammatory rhetoric in her conversations about the conditions at the U.S.-Mexico border. Despite coming under fire last month for saying the U.S.government is "running concentration camps on our southern border," Ocasio-Cortez once again made the same comparison on Twitter on Tuesday. On Monday, after traveling to a border detention center in El Paso, Texas, with almost a dozen members of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus, she blasted border officials as “violent” and “inhumane” while claiming agents forced detained migrant women and children to drink toilet water.Current and former immigration officials rejected the congresswoman's allegations and accused her of p

To be honest, many great words have been spoken about our Independence Day. It would be a sin to not reuse such words. Today I will borrow these words of the past by great patriots, including one local man our previous Sherriff BJ Barnes.Fourth of July speeches, as John Adams predicted in 1776, tent to be "with pomp and parade, with shows, games, sports, guns, bells, bonfires and illuminations from one end of this continent to the other."On the 4th of July President Donald Trump will deliver such a presidential address during the “Salute to America” celebration at the Lincoln Memorial on the National Mall, I hope the world listens.Just 2 days later a number of brave men and women will face the hate of domestic terror groups such as Antifa in order to Demand Free Speech, I will be one of those individuals.We do this because we believe in the Liberty granted to us by brave men who came before us.Liberty does not consist, my fellow-citizens, in mere general declarations of the rights of man. It consists in the t

How Many Times Do We Have To Warn Iran? Trump Says If He Is Forced To Do Something It's Going To Be A Large Response. After showing military restraint, Trump warns Iran in 'Tucker Carlson Tonight' interviewPresident Trump, after calling off a military strike on Iran following the downing of an American drone last month, delivered a stern warning to the regime during an interview with Fox News. Speaking exclusively with Tucker Carlson, Trump said he "built up a lot of great capital" after his decision -- but said that means "if something should happen, we're in a positionto do far worse by not doing it." He quickly added, "But, hopefully, we don't have to do anything." The president's comments on "Tucker Carlson Tonight" were made before it was reported on Monday that Iran has exceeded the threshold for the Islamic Republic's low-enriched uranium stockpile agreed upon in the 2015 nuclear deal. But at a White House event on Monday, he said Iran was "playing with fire.”During the "Tucker" interview, President Tr

With Peace In North Korea And China Trade Deals, Don't You Think It's Time Trump Got A Nobel Peace Prize?Fox News Exclusive: Trump tells Tucker Carlson he's optimistic about trade deal with China, slams Big Tech biasPresident Trump expressed optimism about a possible trade deal between his administration and Chinese President Xi Jinping,during an interview with Tucker Carlson set to air Monday night on Fox News. Trump had met with Xi during the G20 summit in Osaka and described the meeting as "excellent" before saying the two countries were "back on track." "We had a very good meeting," thepresident said. "He wants to make a deal. I want to make a deal. Very big deal, probably, I guess you'd say the largest deal ever made of any kind, not only trade."Trump sat down with Carlson during the president's trip, which included stops in Osaka, Japan, for the G20 summit, and a first-of-its kind visit by a U.S. president to North Korea, meeting with dictator Kim Jong Un at the Demilitarized Zone (DMZ), which Carlson w

Is Joe Biden a Racist?Harris puts Biden's race record on trial in Round 2 of Dem primary debateDemocratic presidential primary front-runner Joe Biden ran into a formidable challenge at Thursday night’s debate from U.S. Sen. Kamala Harris, who tapped into her prosecutor toolbox to put his race record on trial following the controversy over his comments on segregationist senators. In perhaps the most heated momentof the night, Harris told Biden she doesn’t believe he is a “racist” but considers his recent comments about being able to work with segregationist senators early in his career “hurtful.”Biden has said he disagreed with the senators on segregation, but was still able to work with them in the Senate. But that explanation did not deter Harris during Thursday's debate. “You worked with them to oppose busing,” Harris said, referring to efforts to limit orders for school desegregation by busing. In an emotional moment, she told her own story of being bussed as a little girl in California. Biden fired back t

2020 Dems take shots at Trump And They Are All Blank! Ready For A Reload?2020 Dems take shots at Trump, clash over policy proposals during Round 1 The first primary debate of the 2020 presidential election season saw cracks of daylight emerge in a Democratic field that has largely played to the progressive base,with the candidates clashing sharply over controversial policies like "Medicare-for-all" and calls to decriminalize illegal border crossings -- while taking ample shots at President Trump in the process. Staking out the left flank of the party Wednesday night in Miami were Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass. -- the highest-polling candidate in the first debate batch -- and long-shot Bill de Blasio, the New York City mayor. They were the only candidates to raise their hands when asked who's willing to give up their private health insurance for a government option. Warren went on to staunchly defend 2020 rival Sen. Bernie Sanders’ "Medicare-for-all" plan.Beto O'Rourke, the one-time media darling in the crowde

Mueller has agreed to testify before the House judiciary and intelligence committee, do really think he had anything important to say?Mueller agrees to testify under subpoena before House lawmakers It looks like critics who thought they had heard the last from former Special Counsel Robert Mueller in the ongoing President Trump-Russia collusion saga have been proven wrong. Mueller has agreed to testify before the House judiciary and intelligence committees on July 17 after they subpoenaed Mueller on Tuesday, according to the committees' chairmen, Reps. Jerry Nadler, D-N.Y., and Adam Schiff, D-Calif. House Democrats have fought toget access to Mueller and his unredacted report on Russian interference in the 2016 presidential election and whether President Trump obstructed justice. Weeks of negotiations between the Democrats and the Justice Department ultimately resulted in the subpoena.Fox News has learned Mueller would agree to appear only under a subpoena - and that the subpoena was "friendly." Perhaps a big

IRAN Says The Channel For Diplomacy Is Closed 'Forever' Should We Or Trump Worry?Iran blasts new US sanctions, says channel for diplomacy is closed 'forever'A spokesman for Iran’s Foreign Ministry said in a tweet Tuesday that the new U.S. sanctions that target Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and other officials close any channel for diplomacybetween the two countries "forever." President Trump signed an executive order Monday issuing “hard-hitting” financial sanctions against Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei and his associates. The U.S. and Iran have seen tensions increase exponentially in the past few weeks after an initial U.S. sanctions squeeze that Washington said led to the attacks on two oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. The situation became increasingly dire last week after Tehran admitted to downing a $100 million U.S. Navy drone. Trump said the sanctions “will deny the supreme leader and the supreme leader's office and those closely affiliated with him and the office access to key finan

A Theory On Just Why IRAN Decided To Foolishly Attack Us... What Do You Think?Director of Defense Intelligence Agency gives theory behind Iran's recent attacksIran's recent attacks on tankers and the downing of a U.S. surveillance drone appear to be part of an effort to change "the status quo," the director of the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) told Fox News exclusively. "I'd say that they're probably at an inflection point right now," the director, Lt. Gen. Robert Ashley Jr., explained in his first national TV interview as the leader of the nearly 17-thousand strong agency. Director Ashley said, based on their activity over the last several years, the Iranians would probably say they were in a "favorable" position with their influence over the Iraqi government and the likelihood their longtime regional ally -- Syrian President Bashar al-Assad -- will remain in power. But, Director Ashley said the United States' withdrawal from the Iran deal and subsequent sanctions made a major impact on the regime.His co

What is #Trump going to do about IRAN? The world is watching..The world awaits a 'measured' US response to IranAfter weeks of mounting tension and a war of words, both the United States and Iran have refrained so far from further escalating their conflict after aU.S. drone was shot down by an Iranian surface-to-air missileWednesday evening. According to multiple reports, the U.S. military made preparations for limited strikes on Iran but approval was withdrawn before the attacks were launched. The New York Timesreported that President Trump had approved the strikes, but then called them off.Earlier Thursday, Trump told reporters that Iran made a "very big mistake" but also said he had the feeling that it might have been the result of someone being "loose and stupid," rather than a deliberate provocation by Iran. Top administration officials and lawmakers had a classified briefing at the White House and suggested a "measured" U.S. response is likely coming soon. Fred Fleitz, who also served as chief of staff t

We Get It No One Wants WAR With IRAN, But Yesterday It Was Mining A Oil Tanker, Today Blowing Up Our Drones, Do You Want To See Tomorrow?Iran shoots down US droneAmid heightened tensions with the United States, a U.S. Navy MQ-4C high-altitude drone was shot down by an Iranian surface-to-air missileWednesday evening over the Strait of Hormuz in international airspace, a U.S. official told Fox News. A commander for Iran's Revolutionary Guard said the shooting sends "a clear message" to the U.S. He said while Iran has no intention of war with anyone, it's "ready for war."The shootdown of the RQ-4 Global Hawk comes after the U.S. military previously alleged Iran fired a missile at another drone last week that responded to the attack on two oil tankers near the Gulf of Oman. The U.S. blames Iran for the attack on the ships; Tehran has denied the allegations. Iran recently has quadrupled its production of low-enriched uranium and threatened to boost its enrichment closer to weapons-grade levels, trying to pressure

Trump Sees The Future Is Keeping America Great Because He Has 2020 Vision! Trump Is Making America Great Again! Will You Vote For Trump?Trump officially launches re-election campaign, makes case for second term: 'Keep America Great'President Trump formally launched his 2020 re-election campaign Tuesday night before a jam-packed crowd in Orlando's Amway Center, and quickly unloaded on the media organizations and government actors he said tried their hardest to bring down both his candidacy and then presidency with the Russian collusion scandal. "Our patriotic movement has been under assault from the very first day," Trump said. He specifically called out the "phony" dossier used by the FBI to secure a secret surveillance warrant to surveil one of his former aides, Carter Page. To supporters' delight, Trump even debuted a new impersonation of Hillary Clinton.For the most part, Tuesday's rally focused on Trump's policy successes, from criminal justice reform to the economy. He also touted the planned Space Force

Is War With Iran In Our Future? As Tensions Rise What Do You Think Trump's Next Move Should Be?Iran-US tension rises as Pentagon OKs sending more troops to Middle East and Rep. Omar blames TrumpRep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn, one of Congress' most vocal critics of President Trump, placed the blame squarely on the White House after Iran announced it could enrich uranium up to 20 percent -- just a step below weapons-grade level. Omar took to Twitter on Monday condemning Trump's decision to pull out of the Iran nuclear deal shortly before the Pentagon approved sending 1,000 more troops to the Middle East in response to the attack."None of this would be happening if Trump didn't back out of the Iran nuclear deal," she tweeted. Omar said the U.S. should get back to negotiations with Tehran and reinstate the Iran nuclear deal. The tension between the U.S. and Iran has been increasing in recent days after a high-profile attack on two oil tankers in the Strait of Hormuz. The U.S. blamed Iran for the attacks, which the count

AOC Warned That Trump Will Win 2020 : Do You Agree? US-China trade war takes center stageThe US. Trade Representative's office is set to hold public hearings Monday that will focus on the new round of 25 percent tariffs the Trump administration plans to slap on $300 billion in imported Chinese items not already hit with levies, including toys, shirts, household goods and sneakers. President Trump has already imposed 25 percent tariffs on $250 billion of goods from China and has said a new round of tariffs are needed to force the nation to end unfair trade practices. Meanwhile, more than 600 companies and trade associations, including Walmart and Target, have signed a letter telling the president that an escalating trade war with China will hurt families, jobs and the U.S. economy.AOC has a warning for Democrats -- and Trump agrees (in a way)Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., warned Sunday there is "very real risk" President Trump will win re-election in 2020, sparking a rare response of its kind from the

Trump Says He WILL NOT Fire Kellyanne Conway. What Do You Think About The Hatch Act?Iranian vessel removed unexploded mine from stricken oil tanker in Gulf of Oman, US officials sayAn Iranian vessel removed an unexploded mine that had been attached to a Japanese-owned oil tanker that suffered serious damage after an explosion in the Gulf of Oman early Thursday, U.S. officials told Fox News, as the U.S. Navy released video purportedly showing the incident. The imagery came from the USS Bainbridge, a guided-missile destroyer that rescued 21 sailors from the stricken tanker.At least one other mine attached to the tanker's hull detonated, causing the blast. It happened near the strategic Strait of Hormuz, a key route for oil shipments in the region. A U.S. official told Fox News an Iranian gunboat approached the Kokuka Courageous later in the day and removed the unexploded triangular-shaped limpet mine, the same type of mine used to damage four other tankers in the Gulf of Oman last month.WH press secretary Sarah

TRUMP tells George Stephanopoulos "there isn't anything wrong with listening" to foreign info about rivals, what do you think?Trump says he 'would want to hear' info on 2020 rivals from foreign governments - and outrage followsDemocrats are outraged after President Trump said in an interview Wednesday that he would be willing to listen to foreign governments if they approached him with information on a political rival. "I think I'd want to hear it. … I think you might want to listen. There isn't anything wrong with listening," he said in an interview with ABC News’ George Stephanopoulos. Trump added he would not necessarily contact the FBI if such an approach was made, fueling Democrats' ire. Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand, D-N.Y., a 2020 candidate for president, tweeted, "It's time for Congress to begin impeachment hearings."Still, Trump supporters point out that Democrats may be hypocrites on this issue, as they failed to condemn fellow Democrats, including representatives of Hillary Clinton's campaign and the Dem
