CHICAGO, IL — During a Trump-Vance 2024 press briefing in Chicago on Tuesday, Representative Byron Donalds (R-FL) dismissed concerns raised by Democrats regarding the potential impact of abortion issues on the upcoming presidential election. When asked about claims that the abortion debate could swing key Southern states like North Carolina, Georgia, and Texas in favor of Democrats, Donalds was quick to refute the notion.

"My reaction is that’s silliness," Donalds responded. He was clear in his assertion that Democrats' attempts to capitalize on the abortion issue are unlikely to shift the political landscape in these traditionally Republican strongholds. "Look, they can say whatever they want, but I think the polling has been pretty consistent in every state that you're talking about," he added.

Donalds highlighted North Carolina as a battleground that has seen close contests between Republicans and Democrats in recent election cycles, but he remained confident that Republicans would secure victory again. "North Carolina has always been a very interesting state. We've battled over North Carolina—the Republicans and Democrats—during the last several cycles, but Republicans have pulled it out. It takes work, there’s no doubt about that, and we're committed to doing the same work for North Carolina."

Addressing concerns about Texas, Donalds was emphatic in his reassurance that the Lone Star State would remain in Republican hands. "When it comes to Texas, Texas is going to be just fine," he stated confidently. He also dismissed any doubts about his home state of Florida, adding, "Florida is going to be just fine. It’s going to come home for President Trump."

Donalds' remarks reflect the Trump-Vance campaign’s confidence in retaining support across key Southern states despite Democrats’ focus on abortion rights as a central campaign issue. As the 2024 election draws nearer, the abortion debate is expected to remain a contentious topic, with both parties vying to secure the support of voters on either side of the issue. However, Donalds' comments suggest that the Trump-Vance campaign is not concerned about losing ground in the South, viewing the Democrats' strategy as unlikely to sway the election in their favor.

Ron DeSantis spoke about Dr. Fauci. The Press Conference was held at the University of South Florida to announce investments in cybersecurity workforce education. During the same news conference, he took a shot at Dr. Anthony Fauci, Biden's chief medical advisor, over his actions during the Coronavirus pandemic. DeSantis has fundraised off of attacking Fauci and his campaign sells anti-Fauci merchandise. "I agree if you think about what they've done, Fauci is in the witness protection program now," said DeSantis, when asked if there were any parts of Biden's State of the Union address that he agreed on. "If you listen to them, they have never supported all these policies that were so destructive." During this press conference he was also talking about...

President Trump explains more about his new social media site "Truth Social" | Latest Statement on TMTG

  Photo "Donald Trump" by  Dan Scavino Latest Statement on TMTG by the 45th President Donald J. Trump Last week, I announced the creation of a major new company that will challenge the dominance of the Big Tech giants and Big Media bosses. Today I want to explain more about what I am doing and why. For me, this endeavor is about much more than politics. This is about saving our country. America has always been a nation of smart, spirited, and independent people who take pride in thinking for themselves. We admire those who aren’t afraid to speak their minds, or go against the tide. Yet suddenly, we find ourselves being censored and dictated to by a small group of self-righteous scolds and self-appointed arbiters of what everyone else is allowed to think, say, share, and do. Nowhere is this censorship more dangerous and brazen than on social media, the public square of our times. We have seen renowned medical doctors being banned from platforms for contradicting “health author...

Watch: Karoline Leavitt Discusses The Admin’s Decision To Pick The Press Allowed To Ask Trump Questions

  Karoline Leavitt Karoline Leavitt Discusses The Admin’s Decision To Pick The Press Allowed To Ask Trump Questions Washington, D.C. – During Tuesday's White House Press Briefing, Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt addressed questions regarding the Trump Administration's new policy on selecting reporters who will be granted the opportunity to cover President Donald Trump in high-profile settings. The policy follows a recent court ruling by Judge McFadden, who dismissed a lawsuit filed by the Associated Press (AP) against the White House. The lawsuit had challenged the administration's decision to remove AP from certain press events, a move critics claim restricts access to key governmental proceedings. During the briefing, a reporter questioned Leavitt on whether the administration would consider dissolving the White House Correspondents' Association (WHCA), given the ruling's acknowledgment that the organization has no formal authority over press access.

Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) slammed President Biden's State of the Union address and defended calling him a "liar." Last night, President Joe Biden delivered his State of the Union address to the nation. While many tuned in to hear the President's plans for the future, some were left frustrated by his speaking style. According to some reports, Biden was difficult to understand at times due to his tendency to yell and mumble through applause. One major topic discussed by the President was the ongoing issue of fentanyl deaths, which have become the number one cause of death for young people between the ages of 18 and 45. However, President Biden faced criticism for not having the plan to secure the border and for wanting the border open.
