- CNN Host Reminds Republican Lawmaker The Housing Bill Trump Refused To Sign Has ...
CNN’s Omar Jimenez pressed Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) Saturday over why he was prioritizing President Donald Trump’s SAVE America Act over the bipartisan housing bill that still awaits Trump’s signature. Trump is demanding that Senate Republicans pass the voter I.D. bill before he’ll sign any other legislation, including the housing bill. He reportedly told House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) last week that “nobody gives a f*ck about housing.” “You came out very strongly this week, calling out the Senate over the SAVE America Act, and you were one of 25 Republicans who signed a letter vowing to vote no on any Senate bills until this legislation is passed,” Jimenez began on CNN Newsroom. “You also voted no on the bipartisan housing bill as part of that. And I just wonder, is the SAVE Act worth putting aside something designed to directly help the American people when so many people are hurting right now?” “If you look at the polling, the overwhelming majority of the American people, 80% — whether they are an independent voter, a Democrat, or a Republican voter — they want voter I.D. in federal elections. I mean, this is just common sense,” Donalds said, before recounting all the places where it’s required to present photo I.D. “And the only people who don’t want to see it happen are congressional Democrats, because congressional Democrats do not want to make sure that we are protecting the franchise of voting for the American people,” Donalds added. “Quite frankly, I think that’s sick.” Jimenez argued, “But, congressman…it’s not just Democrats here on the housing side of things, for example. This was a bipartisan effort…The problem that that’s sort of working to solve or working to make better in your eyes — we don’t have evidence of widespread voter fraud proven through the courts. We have evidence that people are struggling to buy homes in this country and are struggling to make ends meet.” “I have to give credit to Gov. [Ron] DeSantis (R) in the Florida legislature, because Florida has passed its version of the SAVE America Act, making sure that if somebody goes to register to vote in our elections, they have to demonstrate proof that they are an American citizen before they even register,” Donalds said, adding, “And we have Democrat senators who don’t want to protect it because they want an ambivalent, wide-open system where you’re… [TheTopNews] Read More.8 hours ago - Trump Warns USA Is Getting ‘Forced’ to Wipe Out Iran, Once and For AllPresident Donald Trump said the United States carried out a counter-attack against Iran on Saturday for violating the ceasefire deal yet “AGAIN!” — which the president said threatened to wreck the ongoing negotiations to end the war. Trump said the U.S. could soon be “forced” to finish off Iran, if more violations occur. The president said America will have no choice, because Iran is showing it cannot be “reasonable” and “will never learn.” Trump posted on Truth Social: United States aircraft just struck Iranian missile and drone storage locations, and coastal radar sites, for violating the Cease Fire Agreement, AGAIN! It is very possible that they will never learn! There may come a point when we are no longer able to be reasonable, and will be forced to militarily complete the job that we very successfully started. If that happens, the Islamic Republic of Iran will no longer exist! President DJT His post came shortly after U.S. Central Command reported the U.S. military hit multiple Iranian targets “in direct response to continued Iranian aggression against commercial shipping.” “Iran was given a chance to honor the ceasefire agreement but elected not to when its forces launched a one-way attack drone,” the report said. As Mediaite’s Jennifer Bowers Bahney wrote earlier: The drone attack appeared to target the U.S. Navy’s regional headquarters and the 5th Fleet, which are based in Bahrain, Fox News’s Jennifer Griffin reported that the strikes were in retaliation for Iran hitting a ship in the Strait of Hormuz earlier Saturday. “It was about 4:30 a.m. when the ship was hit near Strait of Hormuz. That’s the second ship in two days,” Griffin said by phone. “This is the second night of bombing that the U.S. Military is carrying out. The targets include air defense systems, drone storage sites, cruise missiles, targeting radars, and minelaying capabilities, as well as surface-to-air missiles — that’s according to a U.S. official.” “I am told this strike is much larger than last night, which lasted for about an hour,” Griffin continued. “Iran, I’m told, had a chance to stop shooting. This official said they didn’t take it, instead they attacked another ship in Strait of Hormuz this morning. That ship was carrying about 200,000 barrels of oil and so, it could’ve been a disaster in Strait of Hormuz — very dangerous situation. These are attack drones, one-way attack drones, that Iran and the IRGC… [TheTopNews] Read More.9 hours ago
- ‘When Is It Enough?’ MS NOW Host Presses Dem Lawmaker on Support for Scandal...MS NOW anchor Elise Jordan pressed Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) on what it would take for him to finally ditch supporting scandal-riddled Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner (D). Jordan asked the California liberal about it during an interview on The Weekend: Primetime on Saturday. “You have said that the allegations are upsetting and disturbing, but it’s not enough for you to disavow endorsing him,” Jordan said. “When is it enough?” She continued, “When it comes to a woman who says that she has been a victim of abuse reported by a credible newspaper, what’s the the line with you? I’m just curious, because in the years since the Justice Brett Kavanaugh hearing, the lines seem to have really moved for Democrats.” Well, of course I take sexual abuse and sexual assault very seriously. I mean, I led with Thomas Massie, the entire Epstein Files. And I think if you talk to survivors who were crying in my office, they would say that I have really taken that issue very personally and fought at great risk to my own career for that issue,” Khanna started off by saying. He then finally got to Platner, saying he believed if he was accused of sexual assault or domestic violence it would be “not forgivable.” But the accusations so far against Platner aren’t damning, Khanna argued. “What we have seen, as Sen. [Elizabeth] Warren and others have said, are toxic relationships where there was misogyny. And that’s unacceptable. But Plattner has taken responsibility for that. And we will see. Of course, I believe his message is resonating in Maine, but if there was some credible accusation or allegation of sexual assault, domestic violence, or rape, I would withdraw my endorsement.” His answer echoed what he said a few weeks earlier, when he said Platner’s actions were “shameful” — but didn’t disqualify him for being an elected official. The interview comes after Platner’s campaign has been hit with several scandals. He infamously had a Nazi tattoo on his chest — which he later removed and denied knowing it was tied to Nazi Germany; a former girlfriend later contested his claim and told The New York Times he knew exactly what it was. There have been plenty of other unsavory headlines, like Platner’s campaign admitting he sexted a number of women who were not his wife. Platner ripped the “establishment media” for trying to tear apart his loving marriage in response.… [TheTopNews] Read More.9 hours ago

The drone attack appeared to target the U.S. Navy’s regional headquarters and the 5th Fleet, which are based in Bahrain. Fox News’s Jennifer Griffin reported that the strikes were in retaliation for Iran hitting a ship in the Strait of Hormuz earlier Saturday. “It was about 4:30 a.m. when the ship was hit near Strait of Hormuz. That’s the second ship in two days,” Griffin said by phone. “This is the second night of bombing that the U.S. Military is carrying out.

This official said they didn’t take it, instead they attacked another ship in Strait of Hormuz this morning. That ship was carrying about 200,000 barrels of oil and so, it could’ve been a disaster in Strait of Hormuz — very dangerous situation. These are attack drones, one-way attack drones, that Iran and the IRGC have been sending towards the ships.” Griffin continued: I also learned that Iran last night responded to the first round of U.S. airstrikes, that one-hour of airstrikes, with attacks of their own on U.S. Forces in Bahrain. So, they did target a U.S. base in Bahrain. U.S. and Bahraini forces combined to shoot down nine Iranian one-way attack drones, I’m told. No damage or personnel injuries according to a senior U.S. official. This tit for tat seems to be escalating and certainly throwing into question whether the cease-fire’s going to hold and whether this M.O.U. is going to move forward.

- MS NOW Guest Bashes ‘Anti-Black’ Stephen Miller for Deporting Haitians Back ...An advocate for Haitians living in the USA bashed “evil” Stephen Miller for his “anti-Black” views that she said are driving the Trump administration’s push to deport Haitians. Guerline Jozef vented her anger with Miller and President Donald Trump during an interview on MS NOW’s Connect With Jacob Soboroff on Saturday morning. She is the co-founder of The Haitian Bridge Alliance, a group that pushes for “fair and humane immigration policies and connects migrants with humanitarian, legal, and social services — with a particular focus on Black migrants, the Haitian community, women, LGBTQIA+ individuals, and survivors of torture.” Her appearance comes two days after the Supreme Court ruled Haitians and Syrians living in the US with Temporary Protected Status “could not receive judicial relief postponing the revocation of their status while they challenge the Trump administration’s efforts to revoke it in court,” as Fox News reported. The ruling means 350,000 Haitians now face being booted from the country. And Jozef is angry about it. “The reality is, we saw and we know that most of the cruel immigration policies have been coming from Stephen Miller,” Jozef complained. Host Jacob Soboroff agreed with her, adding a quick “yeah.” “The evil that continues to come from those people. We have to center that in the fact that we are dealing with deep Anti-black, anti-other racism and prejudice,” she continued. “And we have the proof to show it and the words that continue to come out of Stephen Miller and people like him are the reason that we have to continue to fight to make sure that we get protection for people seeking safety and asylum, especially for those who are already in the united States under TPS.” She added Americans need to ignore the “false narrative” about TPS needing to be temporary. Jozef said it would be cruel to send Haitians back to Haiti because the country is in a “worst place” than it was in 2010, when the TPS designation was first granted. A moment earlier, the show played a clip of Miller on Thursday telling reporters it should not be a big deal to send Haitians back to their home country. “I mean, it would be it would be crazy for us to say Haitians couldn’t live in Haiti. It’s their country,” Miller said. “Of course, Haitians should live in Haiti.” Soboroff wasn’t a fan of Miller’s… [TheTopNews] Read More.10 hours ago
