The Catholic father-son duo fighting for abortion rights in South Dakota

Saturday 26 October 2024 20:00 , Danielle Campoamor

On May 2, 2022, Rick Weiland — longtime Democrat and former candidate for Congress — and his son Adam were driving home from South Dakota’s state capitol. The father-son duo had just successfully filed the required number of signatures to put Medicaid expansion on the ballot, when the Supreme Court’s draft of its forthcoming Dobbs decision leaked.

“We immediately started talking about it,” Adam, who left the private sector shortly after Donald Trump became president to join his father in politics, tells The Independent. “Then we got our attorney on the phone.”

Aware of the state’s trigger law that would automatically ban abortion if and when the Supreme Court overturned Roe v Wade, the pair appreciated the gravity of the situation. But it wasn’t until two women — one Democrat, one Republican — urged them to do something about it that they realized what steps they personally needed to take.

He added: “We are going to take care of our own people. We will defend our borders and protect our citizens, and we will stop illegal immigration once and for all.”

“We will not be invaded, we will not be occupied, we will not be overrun, we will not be conquered. We will be a free and proud nation,” Trump said.

Saturday 26 October 2024 19:10 , Gustaf Kilander

Trump attempted to appeal to Muslim voters in Michigan on Saturday by bashing Former Republican Rep Liz Cheney, who has endorsed and campaigned with Vice President Kamala Harris.

“Kamala is campaigning with Muslim hating warmonger Liz Cheney wants to invade practically every Muslim country on the planet. And let me tell you the Muslims of our country, they see it and they know it,” Trump said. “Her father was responsible for invading the Middle East, killing millions of Arabs, millions and this is the one that Kamala is campaigning with. And I know Cheney very well. She lost by the biggest margin in the history of the United States Congress … by almost 40 points.”

Trump said on Saturday that under a second Trump administration, jobs would be leaving Mexico and China and returning to Michigan.

“We’ll bring back the auto industry greater than it has ever been. I’m not saying a little bit we’re going to bring them back,” Trump said. “And if they don’t want to build their plant here, you know what they’re going to do. They’re not going to sell cars here.”

He added: “China will not be building those massive plants in Mexico. Vote Trump and you will see a mass exodus of manufacturing jobs from Mexico to Michigan, from Shanghai to Sterling Heights, and from Beijing to Detroit.”

Trump says Detroit makes US ‘developing nation’

Saturday 26 October 2024 18:29 , Gustaf Kilander

Trump doubled down on his criticism of Detroit, saying that the Michigan city makes the US look like a “developing nation.”

“Globalist politicians like Kamala Harris sold you out and let other countries loot and pillage and plunder your wealth and our jobs and our American dreams, 40 percent of Michigan auto jobs were annihilated after NAFTA, the worst trade deal ever made. And I ended it. I ended it with the USMCA,” Trump said.

“That’s Mexico and Canada … And then they allowed China, in one of their brilliant moves, to enter as a growing developing nation … Well, I think Detroit and some of our areas make us a developing nation,” he added. “China doesn’t have any place like that, but they allowed them into the World Trade Organization – that did not work out too well for us.”

Trump appeared to want to move to only Election Day voting while speaking in Novi, Michigan.

The Republicans have encouraged their base to vote early despite Trump’s criticisms.

“You know what the ridiculous system is. You have the rest of your life to vote, anytime you want,” Trump said. “Come on. No, we used to have one-day voting. Voter ID, paper ballots. Prove that you’re a citizen of the United States, please. And you know what? You had no problems.”

Trump slams Harris for changing policy positions

Saturday 26 October 2024 18:18 , Gustaf Kilander

Trump lambasted Harris for changing some of her policies, with the former president claiming she has done so to get elected.

“She’s changed 15 policies in order to be able to run like no transgender operations for people in detention … paid for by the Government, she changed like men and women’s sport,” Trump said.

“She wants men to be able to participate in women’s [sport]. Now she probably got rid of that like no fracking. There will be no for her whole life. She’s no fracking, no oil and gas,” he added.

Harris has said that she won’t ban fracking and helped pass the Inflation Reduction Act, which increased leases for fracking.

“So they have to use people to get people to come, and then they send busses. We don’t send busses. Everybody comes,” Trump claimed.

Barron Trump has been helping his dad with podcast strategy: ‘Absolute ratings gold’

Saturday 26 October 2024 18:00 , Katie Hawkinson

One of Donald Trump’s close advisers revealed that Barron Trump is the architect of his dad’s podcast strategy ahead of Election Day.

Jason Miller, senior adviser to Trump, told Politico’s Playbook Deep Dive podcast that Barron’s recommendations have been “absolutely ratings gold.” Barron, 18, is the former president’s youngest son and a first-year student at New York University’s Stern School of Business.

“Barron has been very involved in selecting or recommending, I should say, a number of the podcasts that we should do,” Miller said. “I got to tell you, hats off to the young man. Every single recommendation he’s had has turned out to be absolute ratings gold that’s broken the internet. He’s done a great job.”

VOICES: Kamala’s campaign is in trouble – they still don’t know how to tackle Trump

Saturday 26 October 2024 17:30 , Jon Sopel

Donald Trump was at a rally in Latrobe, Pennsylvania this last weekend, and he was in full flow. He went on a ramble about the town’s most famous son, the former golfer Arnold Palmer. The anecdote went on for a full 12 minutes. And let’s face it, with Palmer there is a lot to talk about. He took the coveted green jacket at the Masters on four occasions and won every other major, including the Open twice.

He was credited with taking a lot of the snobbishness out of golf and making it a game for the everyman. But this was not the subject of Donald Trump’s lengthy discourse on Palmer. No, it was the size of his penis. A dead golfer’s manhood had somewhat surprisingly come up (fnarr fnarr) in a way no one could have anticipated.

“This is a guy that was all man,” the former president said. “This man was strong and tough, and I refuse to say it, but when he took showers with the other pros, they came out of there, they said, ‘Oh my God, that’s unbelievable’.”

Stephen Miller, Donald Trump’s hard-right immigration advisor, said ahead of the former president’s speech in Novi, Michigan on Saturday, “I want you to picture what the world will look like January 20, next year … The crooked politicians are out of power, and the American people are back in power.”

“The big donors, the special interests, everybody who’s been ripping you off loses their control, and you’re in charge again,” he added. “The border is sealed shut. The illegal aliens are sent home. Our factories are brought back to our shores. Criminals are put behind bars, and our children are taught to love American history and American values. Once again, we will be a proud nation under Donald Trump.”

Shirley MacLaine opens up about uncomfortable 1980s encounter with Donald Trump

Saturday 26 October 2024 16:30 , Olivia Hebert

Shirley MacLaine has recalled an uneasy encounter with Donald Trump in the 1980s.

In an excerpt from her new book, The Wall of Life: Pictures and Stories from This Marvelous Lifetime, the 90-year-old Oscar winner shared that she’s met 13 US presidents, including the 45th and current Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. In the book, she recalled meeting the former president “at some function” in the 1980s, noting that the whole encounter made her feel extremely uncomfortable.

MacLaine told People that she and Trump first crossed paths while she was checking out a space in Manhattan’s 666 Fifth Avenue building, a property Trump owned at the time. Back then, Trump was a real-estate mogul quickly gaining notoriety after appearing on The Oprah Winfrey Show and David Letterman.

Nostradamus pollster reveals latest 2024 prediction – and how he’s never had ‘so much hate’ in an election

Saturday 26 October 2024 16:00 , Rhian Lubin

Historian Allan Lichtman has insisted that he stands by his prediction about who will win the 2024 presidential race despite recent polls – and revealed that he has “never experienced” so much “hate” in an election cycle.

Lichtman is known as the “Nostradamus” of polling due to the fact he has correctly predicted the results of nine out of 10 presidential elections since 1984.

His method for forecasting the race so accurately is known as “The Keys to the White House,” a system he devised with the Russian academic Vladimir Keilis-Borok in 1981.

And despite the polls, which show the race is now tighter than ever between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Lichtman stands by his prediction that the Democrat will win the White House in November.

Trump suggests getting rid of federal income tax during Joe Rogan appearance

Saturday 26 October 2024 15:30 , Gustaf Kilander

During his appearance on the Joe Rogan Experience, Trump suggested fully getting rid of federal income taxes and replacing it with tariffs.

The former president suggested a return to economic policies that were in place before the early 1900s.

“Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs?” Rogan asked Trump after the former president suggested doing so on Monday on Fox News.

“Were we serious about that?” Rogan asked.

“Yeah, sure … But why not?” Trump responded.

He praised the tariff policies of the 25th President William McKinley.

Without incorporating his suggestion to remove the federal income tax, the nonpartisan Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget has estimated that Trump’s economic plans could add $15tn to the debt over the course of a decade.

Rogan says he changed his mind about having Trump on podcast after assassination attempt

Saturday 26 October 2024 15:00 , Gustaf Kilander

Two years ago, Joe Rogan said he wouldn’t have Trump on his show, saying the former president was “an existential threat to democracy.”

Rogan said he changed his mind after Trump was shot during the assassination attempt in Pennsylvania on July 13.

“Once they shot you, I was like, ‘He’s got to come in here,’” Rogan told Trump. “It’s all about timing.”

Joe Rogan corrects Donald Trump over ‘life on Mars’ claim

Saturday 26 October 2024 14:40 , Barney Davis

Joe Rogan pushed Donald Trump for government secrets on whether there is life beyond Earth, in a wide-ranging interview on his hit podcast.

The former president initially said he had “never been a believer” in extraterrestrial life before saying he had interviewed “solid” jet pilots who claimed to have seen “very strange” things in the sky.

“There’s no reason not to think that Mars and all these planets don’t have life,” Trump said.

But Rogan quickly moved to correct him.

“Well, Mars — we’ve had probes there, and rovers, and I don’t think there’s any life there”.

“Maybe it’s life that we don’t know about,” Trump interjected.

To date, no conclusive evidence of past or present life has been found on Mars despite decades of uncrewed missions to the red planet.

Evidence suggests that during the ancient Noachian time period, the surface environment of Mars had liquid water and may have been habitable for microorganisms, but habitable conditions do not necessarily indicate life.
