- ‘Greatest Economy in the World!’ Eric Trump Hits Fox to Take a Victory Lap f...
Foundation Industries chief strategic adviser Eric Trump, the son of President Donald Trump, and company CEO Sankaet Pathak joined Fox Business host Maria Bartiromo to hail the U.S. as the “greatest economy in the world” after the company scored a $24 million Pentagon contract for its battlefield robotics project. Eric Trump, who is an investor in Foundation and was appointed chief strategic adviser in March, appeared on Mornings with Maria to tout the deal and the company’s Phantom 2 technology, a humanoid robot it envisions could be deployed to the frontlines in war and in heavy industry contexts. The company’s humanoid robot, Phantom, is currently undergoing testing in industrial environments including factories and dockyards in the U.S. and abroad, according to a Time profile from March but is often positioned as designed specifically for defence-related use. Joining Fox Business on Thursday, the pair smiled as Bartiromo congratulated them on the contract. After Pathak explained the technology in more detail, the host asked Eric Trump how he came to invest in the company. He replied: Well, Sankaet’s been a friend of mine. I walked through his factory. I couldn’t believe what I saw, coming from hospitality the uses are unlimited, but Maria, you were just talking about China, you know we are America First. We have to win this race. We have to win alot of races right? I got involved with crypto in a very big way because we had to win that digital revolution. We have to win robotics in the United States of America. You had a great segment two days ago, Maria, about the robot in Beijing that was literally running marathons and beating the fastest marathoners by, what, seven to eight minutes for a full marathon. These are in the very early days. We better be winning this race in the United States of America. We’re the greatest economy in the world. And that’s what Sankaet is doing and he’s doing a phenomenal job. When you go up and you interact with these robots, and they fist pump you, they high five you, follow your commands. You bring in A.I. autonomy, it’s going to change industry, going to change military application, it’s going to change hospitality. The uses are unlimited and its a very beautiful thing. Eric Trump did not get into the details of how the company acquired its contract with the Pentagon,… [TheTopNews] Read More.1 hour ago - Karl Rove Praises the Three 2028 Democratic Presidential Hopefuls With a ‘Winn...
LEFT: (AP Photo/Rich Pedroncelli, File) RIGHT: (AP Photo/Pablo Martinez Monsivais) Legendary GOP operative Karl Rove identified the three Democrats eyeing presidential campaigns who he believes “have elements of a winning formula” in a new Wall Street Journal column. After observing that the Democratic Party remains less popular than both the GOP and President Donald Trump, Rove pinned the blame for its struggles on hysterical messaging and observed that the party was trying to get around its branding issue by running liberal candidates as independents rather than Democrats. “While Mr. Schumer and others try mitigating their party’s toxicity by running independents in name only, smart Democrats understand their party needs a better message to attract voters. They don’t have the complete answer, but three possible Democratic 2028 hopefuls have elements of a winning formula,” submitted Rove. “Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear has the tone. Democrats must focus ‘on things that matter.’ ‘Talk like a normal human being,’ he says. ‘Don’t just talk about your policy points. Talk about your ‘why’ — and ‘the why has to be authentic.’ Of course in telling Democrats to be authentic, he should come across as such. That’s sometimes a problem for Mr. Beshear. He’s too wooden.” Rove praised two other Democrats whom he views as being on the right track: Sen. Cory Booker (D., N.J.) got the language right at last weekend’s Michigan Democratic Convention. He brought the crowd to their feet as he shouted, “Will you stand together, unified, strong—be the hope that people need?” He deliberately didn’t close with a [Tim] Walz– or [Chris] Murphy-like denunciation of Mr. Trump. He ended with a call for positive action. And former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel makes a compelling, common-sense case for a new Democratic Party during every appearance and op-ed. He’s running more to the center, offering answers to real problems and criticizing his party for being out of step with middle America. Capturing the right tone matters, but substance does, too. “These three are outliers within their party,” he concluded. “Democrats still have time to get things right for the midterms and 2028, but less than they think.”The post Karl Rove Praises the Three 2028 Democratic Presidential Hopefuls With a ‘Winning Formula’ first appeared on Mediaite.

That’s why Christians in Nigeria are being slaughtered by Muslims.” “Do you know how many Muslims there are in the world?” questioned Morgan, to which Gomez replied, “No. I don’t need to know.” Morgan pressed, “Well have a guess. How many Muslims do you think there are in the world?” “Way too many, Piers. I prefer one dog over a hundred million Muslims,” Gomez responded. After Morgan shot back, “That’s a disgusting, offensive, and vile thing to say that’s very much on brand for you,” Gomez asked, “Why? They like to rape goats. They like to rape little girls.” “Because you’re disgustingly Islamophobic. You describe all Muslims in the most disgusting manner. You call them a bunch of killers and rapists and so on,” said Morgan. “You have no idea how many people you are branding rapists and killers. You don’t know, do you? You don’t care… There are nearly two billion Muslims in this world and what you’re doing when you talk about them as a community of people is you’re tarring all two billion… you are tarring all two billion people with the same brush.” He continued, “Your reaction to the English-born home secretary of my country, Shabana Mahmood, who’s a diligent, hard-working, intelligent, decent person born in Birmingham, in the Midlands of my country, your reaction to her, calling her a ‘dirty Pakistani Muslim,’ was one of the most disgusting things I’ve seen or heard in a very long time, and it showed you for what you are.” “You are a disgusting, Islamophobic bigot that hates two billion people on this planet simply because of their religion, and shame on you. Shame on you!” snapped Morgan. “You’re only back on this program because you were banned from my country. I say good on you, home secretary. You’re a more decent person than Valentina Gomez could ever dream of being.” Watch above via Piers Morgan Uncensored.The post ‘Shame On You!’ Piers Morgan Snaps at… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
- Hannity Asks Kash Patel If There’s ‘Any Truth’ to Report He ‘Used’ FBI...Fox News’ Sean Hannity directly asked FBI Director Kash Patel if there’s “any truth” to reports he “used” his agency to investigate a journalist behind an unflattering report focused on Patel and his girlfriend. Patel joined Hannity on Wednesday evening, and a “hesitant” Hannity asked Patel about the new reporting while noting his own problems with The New York Times, saying he considered suing based on a piece about him and his views on Covid-19. New York Times investigative reporter Michael S. Schmidt reported on Wednesday that the FBI started investigating in March after a piece alleged Patel had used FBI resources to provide his country singer girlfriend, Alexis Wilkins, security and transportation. “Agents interviewed the girlfriend, queried databases for information on the reporter, Elizabeth Williamson, and recommended moving forward to determine whether Ms. Williamson broke federal stalking laws,” Schmidt wrote, citing sources familiar with the situation. Patel is also currently suing The Atlantic for $250 million after a bombshell report cited witnesses who gave accounts of alleged “excessive drinking” and “unexplained absences” by Patel, which have raised concern in the FBI and Department of Justice. Patel called the Times story “baseless” and made a series of accusations. He said the report led to a death threat against his girlfriend, which a man has since been charged with. “I’m reading that they’re going after you that you used the FBI because you didn’t like a story about your girlfriend. And is there any truth to that? Because I’ve known you a long time. It just doesn’t sound like you,” Hannity said. “Absolutely not,” Patel said. “The reality is — and thanks, Sean — is that the same reporter delivered a baseless story which caused a direct threat of life to my girlfriend. And that’s not me saying that. This individual has been charged, arrested, and is in court. And he said, as a direct result of The New York Times reporting, he wanted to take a rifle and canoe my girlfriend’s face. We are going to protect not only me and my loved ones, but every American that is threatened.” Check out the exchange below: SEAN HANNITY: You know, I’m hesitant to ask you this next question, but I think you might want an opportunity to respond only because with The New York Times, I remember there wasn’t one, but there were two articles written about me, if… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
- Mike Pence Advises Trump to Back Down in Pope Feud After Blasting ‘Offensiveâ€...Former Vice President Mike Pence advised his past boss, President Donald Trump, to back down in his feud with Pope Leo XIV and trashed the president’s now-deleted AI-generated meme depicting himself as Jesus as “offensive.” The image, posted to Truth Social on April 12, showed the president appearing in a Christ-like role, healing a sick patient while surrounded by followers. The post quickly spread across social media, drawing fiery backlash from allies and religious conservatives within the MAGA coalition. Trump later deleted the image which was posted hours after he unloaded on the pope’s call for peace in Iran, branding the pontiff “WEAK” in a feud that has continued in the weeks since. While current Vice President JD Vance, a Catholic convert, backed the president’s remarks and scolded the pope’s commentary on the Iran conflict, Pence, who served in the same role under the first administration, took a different approach. Speaking to MS NOW’s Ali Vitali in an interview aired during Thursday’s Morning Joe, Pence addressed Trump’s Jesus meme and his rhetoric about the pope: Well, I found the language and the images offensive. I think the president was right to take one image down. And his ongoing argument with Pope Leo, I think has abated to a degree. And I welcome that. I think the pope has every right to express himself in a manner that he believes is consistent with the gospel of Jesus Christ. And the president has every right to express his view and his agenda for the American people. And I think I think if I was advising him, as I did every day for four and a half years, I’d say, let the pope be the pope and you be the president. Pressed by Vitali on whether he had expressed that view to Trump, Pence laughed and said he had “not.” “I have not. I was able to congratulate the president on his election and congratulate the First Lady, but we don’t talk as often as we used to. But I get the distinct impression he still listens to us and watches what we do,” he said. The relationship between Trump and Pence, who was raised Catholic but later converted to evangelical Christianity, faltered following the president’s 2020 election defeat after the then-vice president moved to certify former President Joe Biden’s victory.

- Buttigieg Slams Trump for Torpedoing America’s Standing in the World: ‘Peopl...Former Transportation Secretary and Democratic presidential shortlister Pete Buttigieg slammed President Donald Trump over the nation’s “diminished” status in the world, telling late-night host Stephen Colbert that China is more trusted now than the U.S. The former Biden cabinet member has emerged as a vociferous messenger for Democrats and one of the few Dem heavy hitters willing to go where others won’t, such as Fox News. Buttigieg was in friendlier territory on Wednesday night’s edition of The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, during which the host played a very old clip of Secretary Pete when he was Student Pete, and asked how his view of America’s role in the world has changed since then: STEPHEN COLBERT: We’ve got an old clip here. It’s you at Harvard in 2001 asking a panel if 9/11 will change the way Americans view their role in the world. FMR. SECRETARY PETE BUTTIGIEG: Are we likely to see now, for the average American, a greater respect for international institutions, a better sensitivity for international affairs, an understanding of the way everything is connected? Or can we expect to go international just long enough for our international war effort and then just pull right back in to where the U.S. is what we worry about and the rest of the world is just there? STEPHEN COLBERT: Fantastic question a great question for anyone, let alone a freshman who evidently got into Harvard at age 13. 25 years later, how do you view America’s role in the world? FMR. SECRETARY PETE BUTTIGIEG: Diminished. Sadly. I mean, you know, when I was a student, it was just understood that the U.S. was the leading nation in the world, not just the biggest, not the richest, not most powerful, but the country that people looked to because of our values as well as because of our strength. And now, under Donald Trump, there are by some measures more people around the world who trust China to do the right thing than the United States. That should bother every patriotic American. Because the reality is, when people do not trust the United States, that affects us. You don’t have to be a foreign policy buff to be concerned about that or to be affected by that. That affects everything from our security as a country to the prices we pay at the store. And it will take a generation to establish the… [TheTopNews] Read More.2 hours ago
