JUST IN: Latest Voter Registration Numbers Show GOP Crushing Democrats Nationwide

The New Atlantis

A surge in Republican voter registration nationwide is adding to a wealth of evidence that the GOP is in a strong position across the board with 83 days to go before the November elections.

An analysis of voter registrations performed by Michael Pruser of Decision Desk HQ shows a tale of two political parties: one facing mountain headwinds while another runs toward Election Day with the wind at its back. Nationally, the Republican Party added more than a quarter-million members in July alone while the Democrat Party lost just over 19,000 in its ranks. Extrapolated over the past three and a half years since the last presidential election, the GOP enjoyed modest growth: a net gain of 393,365 sign-ups, including in some astounding places like California (+148,823), Florida (+151,456), and new Jersey (+152, 918). Today Florida contains one million more Republicans than Democrats, a stark change from the enrollment advantage Democrats enjoyed just four years ago, per the AP.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

As positive as Republicans may feel about their party’s growth, they might be downright giddy about the shrinking Democratic electorate. Between November 2020 and July 2024, more than 3.5 million voters have left the Democratic Party, a sign of just how unfavorable it has become under President Joe Biden. That shift alone represents a change in identity for more than 2% of all voters nationwide.

During that same period, the number of independent voters has continued to surge to 1.8 million above its November 2020 level, underscoring a trend of disillusion that many Americans feel about both major parties. Before President Biden exited the race, many election prognosticators waxed about the “double haters,” or voters who would be selecting between two candidates who they disliked. Now with Vice President Kamala Harris in the race, observers are waiting to see whether enthusiasm around her campaign solidifies into momentum or simply passes like a sugar high.

Among the issues most salient to voters are those where President Trump receives his highest remarks. When asked who is most trustworthy on matters like immigration and the economy, the former president generally bests Harris, though some polls show she is catching up with Trump on economic policies. GOP-aligned allies have encouraged the Trump campaign to work harder to tie the unpopular vice president to Biden’s policies, including those Americans believe contributed to inflation and higher consumer prices. In a sign of just how popular President Trump has become, Harris is now borrowing his ideas on the campaign trail; during a rally in Nevada this week, the Democrat promised to abolish federal taxes on tipped wages, a change originally proposed by Trump. He responded by mocking Harris in a post on Truth Social.

“Kamala Harris, whose ‘Honeymoon’ period is ENDING, and is starting to get hammered in the Polls, just copied my NO TAXES ON TIPS Policy,” Trump wrote on Sunday. “This was a TRUMP idea – She has no ideas, she can only steal from me.”

JUST IN: USSS Agent In Charge Of Trump Rally Security Under Investigation For STUNNING Misstep

The New Atlantis

Security lapses, improper fraternization, backbiting, and sleeping on the job are among the problems plaguing a dysfunctional Secret Service protection detail around former President Trump, according to a new report.

A top-down review of the 60-member team by agency brass is zeroing in on missteps by a particular agent who helped formulate the protective measures around Trump on the day of an assassination attempt that nearly took his life. According to RealClearPolitics, Secret Service leadership has uncovered that the individual has been compromising the Republican’s security by posting otherwise innocuous messages on social media that it says compromised Trump’s whereabouts. The revelation comes as part of an internal review that lays bare a broken system that failed the former president on July 13th.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

An RCP analysis of the agent’s Facebook history shows images of what appears to be Mar-a-Lago and a Florida sunset. The agent wrote, “A sunset to be grateful for …” adding heart and sunset emojis and the hashtags “#nofilter #southflorida #thankful #workmode …”. Sources told the outlet that most of the agent’s messages, including some with videos, were posted to her Instagram account, which was private. The agent is believed to be among the least experienced within President Trump’s detail for staging the July 13th rally, and some sources fear that Acting Director Robert Rowe will fire them for the social media posts rather than the critical security lapses that occurred that day. The individual had decades of agency experience, the outlet added, but virtually none within the innermost protective ring around current and former presidents.

Sources explained that the assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania served as a wake-up call to their colleagues. “Some agents have referred to it as their 9/11 moment where people are opting back onto the detail,” a Secret Service source said. “Morale is high, people are motivated. These agents [protecting Trump] are stiff-jawed with steel in their spine.”

In the lead-up to the Butler rally, the agent compromising themself on social media was responsible for helping formulate an overall plan for the perimeter of the rally where the gunman positioned himself, however, they were mostly focused on the perimeter. She joined the force’s lead site agent while they conducted walkthroughs of security with supervisors; the lead is typically the agent who manages all aspects of a president’s event from touchdown of their aircraft to putting him back on the road or into the sky.

Signs of corrosion within Trump’s detail were plainly evident before Butler, sources added. On May 15th, the two agents in charge of President Trump’s 60-member team dressed everyone down in a virtual meeting where they cited instances of “rumors, innuendo and toxicity” among the detail, as well as “selfishness and immaturity.” Lead agent Sean Curran and his deputy Matthew Piant reminded their team that they had refrained from recommending punishment to any members by higher leadership, even for childish pranks that were compromising Trump’s safety. Among them: the sharing of photographs showing Mar-a-Lago agents sleeping on the job. Piant accused the responsible agents of “humor and gossip” at the expense of professionalism and that they should have simply nudged their colleagues awake.

The pranks, Piant added, amounted to a “lack of basic human decency” that was drawing attention from Secret Service leadership “at the highest levels.” Ultimately, no one was referred for punishment and, to the knowledge of sources, the agents who fell asleep on their assignments were never formally punished.

WATCH: Dan Goldman MELTS DOWN After Bret Baier Brutally Fact-Checks Him On Trump

The New Atlantis

Congressman Dan Goldman (D-NY), a reliable cheerleader for the Harris campaign, was pulled sharply back to reality after making unsubstantiated claims about the upcoming presidential debates.

The time-honored tradition of debates about the actual debates remains ongoing following President Joe Biden’s decision to exit the race. Former President Donald Trump will now face off against Vice President Kamala Harris as their two camps spar over the settings and formats of any televised showdowns. Speaking on Fox News, Rep. Goldman falsely claimed that President Trump “doesn’t want to debate” Harris because of her strength on the stage as a former prosecutor. Host Bret Baier was quick to correct him.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

“Well, he’s accepted three. He said yes to September 4th, September 10th, September 17th. He’s said yes to a lot of them, so it’s not that he’s obviously afraid to debate,” he replied, forcing the Democratic congressman to clarify his position. “No no no. He agreed to September 10th on ABC…” he started as Baier interjected, “with Biden, who got pushed out!” Goldman maintained that Trump should regardless be willing to debate any Democratic nominee. “It’s fine, he said he would do it. I’m just saying he’s also agreed to other debates. You said he hasn’t agreed to others. He has. It’s the Kamala Harris campaign that hasn’t agreed on the other side,” the host reminded his guest.

WATCH:

The clip, put out by President Trump’s rapid response social media account, signals that the Harris campaign is pushing a message through surrogates that Trump is still on his heels more than three weeks after she entered the race. President Trump has consistently said he would debate Harris in any setting, though he at first demanded that the original September 10th debate be moved to Fox News instead of ABC News. At a press conference last week, the former president estimated that the Democratic leader is “not smart enough to do a news conference,” tying her lack of public appearances to a lack of willingness to debate. Others have called for Vice President Harris to be more available to the media.

In response to challenges to agree to more debates, the Harris campaign has called for President Trump to stick to the format he originally agreed upon for a debate against President Biden. “Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out. He needs to stop playing games and show up to the debate he already committed to on Sept 10,” Harris Campaign communications director Michael Tyler said in a statement earlier this month.

President Trump was quick to respond, citing his ongoing lawsuit against ABC anchor George Stephanopoulos as a conflict of interest for continuing to hold the first debate on the network. “I have agreed with FoxNews to debate Kamala Harris on Wednesday, September 4th,” the former president wrote on Truth Social. “The Debate was previously scheduled against Sleepy Joe Biden on ABC, but has been terminated in that Biden will no longer be a participant, and I am in litigation against ABC Network and George Slopadopoulos, thereby creating a conflict of interest.”

BREAKING: Trump OFFICIALLY Returns To Twitter/X With EPIC Video

BREAKING: Trump OFFICIALLY Returns To Twitter/X With EPIC Video

The New Atlantis

Conservatives on X are celebrating, as it now appears former President Donald Trump has officially returned.

Earlier on Monday, campaign advertisements styled as posts were running under President Trump’s namesake account @realDonaldTrump but were not appearing on his timeline, leaving supporters guessing about whether he was making an official return or simply promoting his campaign on the social media platform that helped launch him into the White House. Shortly after 11 a.m. EST, President Trump shared his video message on his timeline, marking the first post since releasing his mugshot of August of 2023 and just his second since being infamously booted from the platform after J6.

Conservatives on X are celebrating, as it now appears former President Donald Trump has officially returned.

Earlier on Monday, campaign advertisements styled as posts were running under President Trump’s namesake account @realDonaldTrump but were not appearing on his timeline, leaving supporters guessing about whether he was making an official return or simply promoting his campaign on the social media platform that helped launch him into the White House. Shortly after 11 a.m. EST, President Trump shared his video message on his timeline, marking the first post since releasing his mugshot of August of 2023 and just his second since being infamously booted from the platform after J6.

Calls To Boycott Delta Airlines Grow After Woke DEI Initiatives Are Revealed thumbnail

Calls To Boycott Delta Airlines Grow After Woke DEI Initiatives Are Revealed

The New Atlantis

Delta Airlines is scrambling to respond to a wave of criticism the airline is receiving after X users uncovered DEI policies that it says are discriminatory.

Fox News Business reported that Delta has jettisoned the use of the phrase “ladies and gentlemen” during its boarding gate announcements, a change that came in response to an overhaul of its diversity, equity, and inclusion initiatives implemented under DEI & Social Impact Officer Kyra Lynn Johnson. The executive previously promised to “boldly pursue equity” since being elevated from a communications role in 2016. Describing her intent during a February 2021 panel with other DEI implementors, Johnson explained, “So we’re beginning to take a hard look at things like our gatehouse announcements. You know, we welcome ‘ladies and gentlemen.’ And we’ve asked ourselves, ‘Is that as gender inclusive as we want to be?’ You know, we’re looking at some legacy language that exists in some of our employee manuals. And getting to the root of the way some things are described and saying, ‘Does that actually send a message of inclusivity?’”

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

The change went unnoticed originally when in December 2020, Johnson released new company guidelines discouraging boarding gates to refrain from using the phrase “ladies and gentlemen” and reminded Delta employees that there are more than two genders. “Use gender-neutral language and pronouns. Do not use language that suggests a gender binary (male-female),” the Delta guide said. A spokesperson for the company told Fox News that it stands by Johnson’s recommendation. “Delta encourages our people to use language that is inclusive of everyone as our global customer base includes a broad range of diversity in cultural backgrounds, identity and experiences,” the spokesperson said. Delta CEO Ed Bastian has indicated his support as well.

Speaking at that same panel in 2021, Johnson stated that she is focused on ensuring Delta transitions its corporate agenda toward being “antiracist,” a change that came roughly six months after the death of George Floyd and nationwide Black Lives Matter protests. “To really come out and say, as an organization, that we are an antiracist company was really important to us,” she said at the time. “We are going to actively seek diversity. We’re also talking about how we’re going to boldly pursue equity. And we’re talking about the steps we’re taking to consciously promote inclusion. So, we realize, like many of you have, that it’s not enough just to say, ‘We aren’t racist,’ but to say that you are antiracist.”

WATCH:

Changes to hiring policies across the airline industry, especially for its pilots, have drawn scrutiny from conservative corners over what they say amounts to putting flyer safety on the back burner. The changes are part of a “top-down” realignment under Johnson of Delta’s talent pipeline. “We said we’re going to reimagine and redefine our talent strategy,” Johnson said in 2021, with a focus on being “intentional about the representation that we need.” She added that metrics would track whether Delta is ultimately successful in the total transformation of its workforce through DEI initiatives. “We’re starting on a quarterly basis to specifically measure those representation gaps at every level of the company. So we’re looking at the front line representation gap,” she said.

More recently, conservative boycotts have focused on Fortune 500 companies that have implemented similar DEI policies, and they have seen some success as corporations have backtracked under pressure. Tractor Supply and John Deere, which both cater to a rural and conservative base of customers, recently announced they would be repealing DEI guidelines that drew national attention.

‘Scarface’ Star Dies At 68 thumbnail

‘Scarface’ Star Dies At 68

The New Atlantis

Ángel Salazar, the supporting actor who helped elevate Al Pacino’s character Tony Montana to household status in the classic gangster movie “Scarface,” has died at 68.

Salazar played the ever-reliable Chi Chi in the film, accompanying Montana from his first days on U.S. soil as an asylum seeker fleeing communist Cuba. They quickly participated in overrunning a detention center and escaping into Miami, Florida, where they began at the bottom rung of the drug trade before working their way up the ladder. Salazar “passed away in his sleep” while staying with a friend in Brooklyn, according to a representative who confirmed the news with TMZ. The friend, who stayed with him “over the weekend,” checked on Salazar and found him in bed unresponsive, Ann Wingsong said. While no cause of death was announced with his passing, Wingsong said the actor had a history of heart afflictions.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

Born in 1956, Salazar landed the role of Chi Chi early in his acting career, playing a devoted henchman who commits deadly acts in the name of protecting Montana’s burgeoning cocaine empire. The 1983 film was released to mixed reaction and earned the controversial “X” rating before director Brian DePalma successfully petitioned the movie industry’s governing body to reduce its rating to “R.” The following year, “Scarface” became a top-selling home movie purchase on VHS tape, becoming the first film to amass 100,000 purchases at the full retail price of $79.95, according to Variety. It defined the careers of Pacino and Salazar who went on to star alongside Tom Hanks in 1988’s “Punchline” and again opposite Pacino in “Carlito’s Way” five years later. The Cuban-born actor was working with director Eric Spade on a film about Brooklyn at the time of his death which would have seen him united once more with actor Steven Bauer, who played Manolo, the telegenic advisor to Montoya, in “Scarface.”

Over his career, Salazar starred in 39 films including hits like “The Streetz 2′” (2020), “Make America Great Again” (2018), “The Streetz’” (2017), “Take it Back” (2016), “Laugh Killer Laugh” (2015), “Crumble” (2010), “Made in Brooklyn” (2007), and “Harlem Blues” (2003). He made limited television appearances between 1992 and 2017 to reminisce on his own time producing “Scarface.”

The New York Post cited Salazar’s unforgettable moment in the movie when Chi Chi saves Montana early on from a chainsaw-wielding gangster intent on dismembering him in a hotel bathtub. He goes down in a hail of gunfire protecting Montana as his rivals close in on his Miami compound.

BREAKING: Donald Trump Makes First Appearance Back On Twitter thumbnail

BREAKING: Donald Trump Makes First Appearance Back On Twitter

The New Atlantis

Former President Donald Trump appears to have shaken off the shackles binding him to Truth Social, posting a cryptic video message on X that seems to tease his long-awaited return to the social media platform that helped propel him to the White House.

Since receiving a lifetime ban from the platform previously known as Twitter, President Trump has founded Truth Social, his own site dedicated to emulating the rapid and primarily text-based posting style of X though never denied that he had an interest in returning eventually. A change in ownership under Elon Musk made the transition even more likely thanks to the entrepreneur’s supportive posts about free speech, especially for conservatives, and his denouncements of Trump’s ban by previous leadership. Founding Truth Social required the former president to operate under an exclusivity clause that expired in June of 2023, and he now appears to be exercising his freedom to again entertain his 88 million followers on X. His last post was in August of that year when he displayed his infamous mugshot and posted a link to his website.

Now, President Trump is reconnecting his campaign apparatus with his X account, posting a dramatic two-and-a-half-minute theater-style video adorned with fireworks and a message centered on the Justice Department’s criminal indictments against him. In an advertisement posted in the early hours on Monday, Trump wrote, “They want to silence me because I will never let them silence you. They’re not coming after me, they’re coming after you. I just happen to be standing in their way and I’m never moving. We will Make America Great Again! #TrumpOnX”

The former President has now posted the video to his official X timeline, his first message on the platform since he shared his mugshot in 2023.

WATCH:

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

President Trump’s personal account enjoys nearly four-and-a-half times the number of followers as that of Vice President Kamala Harris, giving him a widespread advantage on the platform that remains the go-to source of breaking news for the internet. Musk doubled down on Trump’s re-engagement, confirming an interview with the Republican leader on Trump’s account at 8 p.m. EST tonight. Outside of podcast star Joe Rogan or conservative journalist Tucker Carlson, Musk is arguably one of the most influential figures in conservative politics today, overseeing a social media network that counts more than half a billion monthly users.

The Tesla founder shares in common with Trump a feeling of resentment against systemic biases he claims are placed on him by both the government and “woke” corporations that have pulled their advertising since his takeover. He denounced the former president’s criminal conviction as politically motivated and promised to spend upwards of $45 million per month to see him elected to a second term.

Former President Donald Trump appears to have shaken off the shackles binding him to Truth Social, posting a cryptic video message on X that seems to tease his long-awaited return to the social media platform that helped propel him to the White House.

Since receiving a lifetime ban from the platform previously known as Twitter, President Trump has founded Truth Social, his own site dedicated to emulating the rapid and primarily text-based posting style of X though never denied that he had an interest in returning eventually. A change in ownership under Elon Musk made the transition even more likely thanks to the entrepreneur’s supportive posts about free speech, especially for conservatives, and his denouncements of Trump’s ban by previous leadership. Founding Truth Social required the former president to operate under an exclusivity clause that expired in June of 2023, and he now appears to be exercising his freedom to again entertain his 88 million followers on X. His last post was in August of that year when he displayed his infamous mugshot and posted a link to his website.

Now, President Trump is reconnecting his campaign apparatus with his X account, posting a dramatic two-and-a-half-minute theater-style video adorned with fireworks and a message centered on the Justice Department’s criminal indictments against him. In an advertisement posted in the early hours on Monday, Trump wrote, “They want to silence me because I will never let them silence you. They’re not coming after me, they’re coming after you. I just happen to be standing in their way and I’m never moving. We will Make America Great Again! #TrumpOnX”

The former President has now posted the video to his official X timeline, his first message on the platform since he shared his mugshot in 2023.

JUST IN: Trump Turns The Tables, Will Sue DOJ For $100M Over Mar-A-Lago Raid

The New Atlantis

Former President Donald Trump has laid the groundwork to launch a devastating lawsuit against the federal government and accuse the Justice Department of “political persecution” over its unprecedented August 2022 raid on Mar-a-Lago.

In a memo obtained by Fox News, attorneys for the Republican leader allege “tortious conduct by the United States against President Trump” resulting in 37 felony counts brought by special counsel Jack Smith. Trump pleaded not guilty to mishandling classified documents and maintained that any found in his possession during the raid were declassified under the Presidential Records Act. Charges included willful retention of national defense information, conspiracy to obstruct justice, and false statements. Trump attorney Daniel Epstein filed the notice to sue the Justice Department which now has 180 days to file its own motion and seek a resolution; if none is reached, the case could come before the U.S. Court for the Southern District of Florida.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

“What President Trump is doing here is not just standing up for himself – he is standing up for all Americans who believe in the rule of law and believe that you should hold the government accountable when it wrongs you,” Epstein told Fox Business’ Lydia Hu.

The ground shifted beneath Smith’s feet last month when Florida U.S. District Judge Aileen Cannon dismissed the entire case in light of the Supreme Court’s historic decision granting presidents total immunity from official acts taken while in office. However, the decision to dismiss was based instead on a successful argument by the defense that Smith was unlawfully appointed, agreeing with citations that backed up how vague the authority of special counsel appointments has been for decades. In her decision, Judge Cannon wrote, “Special Counsel Smith’s appointment violates the Appointments Clause of the United States Constitution.” She added that Smith’s use of a “permanent indefinite appropriate also violates the Appropriations Clause” but that “the Court need not address the proper remedy for the funding violation given the dismissal on Appointments Clause grounds.”

In a boon for Trump’s attorneys, Judge Cannon earlier this summer ordered a series of repeals of redactions to evidence as part of the case, some of which showed that the Justice Department conspired with the U.S. National Archives (NARA) as it prepared for the raid. Attorneys for President Trump were left out of the discussions, a clear break from historical precedent noted by a NARA representative who participated in the scheme. If true, it could further bolster Epstein’s allegation that the Justice Department unfairly targeted President Trump before the raid and treated the collection of documents outside of its normal processes. “One of Biden’s top WH lawyers conspired with NARA atty Stern to circumvent laws related to notification of holder of records (Trump) under Presidential Records Act. Now this is a legit criminal conspiracy…” Julie Kelly, a conservative investigative reporter, wrote on X at the time.

President Trump has also made hay out of revelations that the FBI authorized the deadly use of force during the raid and used the news as a rallying cry for his base several months before the attempted assassination against him. U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland and representatives from the FBI have justified the authorization as the standard operative procedure for all raids conducted by agents in the field.

NEW: Olympic Athlete Carted Off After Horrific Crash DURING Event

NEW: Olympic Athlete Carted Off After Horrific Crash DURING Event

The New Atlantis

A horrific fall during the steeplechase at the Paris Olympics ended with one of the event’s stars being carted off by medical responders.

Lamecha Girma, the world record holder for the men’s 3,000m steeplechase, suffered a cataclysmic fall over one of the track’s barriers during his final lap. With just 200m to go, the Ethiopian track star crashed into the barrier and took a nasty spill on the rubber track, curling over in misery and clutching his arm as officials rushed in to provide aid. The fall was so bad that Girma’s head was situated in a medical brace before he was loaded onto a stretcher and carried away, according to the Daily Star. The incident caused so much commotion during media coverage of the Olympics that organizers were forced to respond with a statement about Girma’s medical status.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

“Following his fall in the 3,000m steeplechase, Lamecha Girma received immediate care from the on-site medical teams. Our thoughts are with him and we are sending him our very best wishes for a swift recovery. Paris 2024 is in close contact with the Ethiopian NOC to stay updated on his condition,” the IOC said in a statement to the outlet. Resting in a hospital bed, Girma was photographed by his handlers who posted on Instagram that the 23-year-old is doing better than expected and on the road to recovery. “Lamecha Girma is making a strong recovery, and the Ethiopian Olympics team paid him a visit at the hospital. #RoadToRecovery #Paris2024,” read the post.

WATCH:

It’s a disappointing end to Girma’s second Olympics run after he secured a silver medal three years ago at the Tokyo Games. A downtrodden Girma was photographed with a distant look in his eyes though thankfully didn’t appear to have any skin burns from the fall, and at just 23 he is certain to be afforded another opportunity to go for the gold in four years at the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles.

Media coverage of violent ends at the Olympics has been overwhelmingly focused on women’s boxing where two fighters with male chromosomes were allowed to compete despite being disqualified by the International Boxing Association two years earlier. Angela Carini of Italy abandoned her pursuit of a gold medal after sparring with Algeria’s Imane Khelif, who failed a gender test but was allowed to compete in the female division. The match lasted just 46 seconds before Carini threw in the towel, prompting outcries from prominent swimmer and women’s sports activist Riley Gaines, among others. “Men don’t belong in women’s sports #IStandWithAngelaCarini,” wrote the former University of Kentucky swimmer last week.

In another contentious boxing match, Lin Yu-ting, 28, competing for Taiwan, punched Uzbek fighter Sitora Turdibekova to the point of tears on Friday after three rounds of a punishing assault that drew international headlines for its one-sidedness. Videos of the match circulating online show Lin delivering crushing blows to the face and body of Turdibekova who walked away after the third round with her head hanging in defeat. Lin was allowed to compete despite previous disqualifications by the International Boxing Association for failing her gender test. The two did not embrace or congratulate one another as Lin was declared the winner.

WATCH: Jesse Watters EXPOSES Tim Walz’s Shocking Ties To Chinese Communists

The New Atlantis

An investigation into Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s ties to China revealed that the vice presidential candidate relied on funds from the Communist Party to educate America’s children while they traveled overseas, among other notable connections that raise questions about his ability to represent American interests in the White House.

Fox News host Jesse Watters reported on Wednesday that the midwestern Democrat has visited mainland China at least 30 times going back to his career as a suburban school teacher. His first visit in 1989, funded by Harvard University, coincided with the Tiananmen square protests and massacre, and upon his return Walz “spread Chinese propaganda,” Watters told his viewers. He quoted Walz, who said about his first visit, “I was treated exceptionally well… They are such kind, generous, capable people. They just gave and gave and gave to me. Going there was one of the best things I’ve ever done.” His marriage to Gwen Walz on April 15th, 1994 was exactly five years to the day of the Tiananmen square riots.

(VOTE: Are You Supporting TRUMP Or KAMALA In November?)

Later on, Walz, 60, founded a travel company that specialized in educational tours for American high school students visiting China and relied on funding from the Chinese government to underwrite the visits. While there, the new No. 2 to Vice President Kamala Harris was known by Chinese children as the “big-nosed one” and “foreign devil.” He went on to learn some Mandarin as well, and to this day continues to maintain strong ties with Chinese-American organizations that have close ties to intelligence arms for the communist regime of Chinese President Xi Jinping. One, the Chinese Friendship Organization, welcomed him for a speech in 2019, one year after winning his first election to the governor’s office.

“Did the Harris campaign know about this? How can a guy visit China 30 times and pal around with [Chinese communists] and have Chinese money change hands and you say to yourself ‘I want that guy in the Situation Room with me,’” Watters joked. For good measure, he added this “wasn’t the first time” that Democrats attempted to “install” a White House occupant with deep ties to China, an unsubtle dig at President Biden and his family’s connection to lucrative business dealings with Chinese business interests.

WATCH:

Former President Donald Trump continues to formulate lines of attack against Gov. Walz, whose vice presidential nomination was announced earlier this week. Republicans have slammed him for presiding over a vicious series of riots in 2020 that left Minneapolis in tatters and fanned the flames of allegations that he resigned from the Army in order to run for Congress and avoid being deployed to Iraq. More recently, critics have leaned into his transgender accommodations in Minnesota schools, labeling him “Tampon Tim” after reports that he ordered the feminine hygiene products to be installed in all-male high school bathrooms.

While there, the new No. 2 to Vice President Kamala Harris was known by Chinese children as the “big-nosed one” and “foreign devil.” He went on to learn some Mandarin as well, and to this day continues to maintain strong ties with Chinese-American organizations that have close ties to intelligence arms for the communist regime of Chinese President Xi Jinping. One, the Chinese Friendship Organization, welcomed him for a speech in 2019, one year after winning his first election to the governor’s office.

“Did the Harris campaign know about this? How can a guy visit China 30 times and pal around with [Chinese communists] and have Chinese money change hands and you say to yourself ‘I want that guy in the Situation Room with me,’” Watters joked. For good measure, he added this “wasn’t the first time” that Democrats attempted to “install” a White House occupant with deep ties to China, an unsubtle dig at President Biden and his family’s connection to lucrative business dealings with Chinese business interests.

WATCH:

Former President Donald Trump continues to formulate lines of attack against Gov. Walz, whose vice presidential nomination was announced earlier this week. Republicans have slammed him for presiding over a vicious series of riots in 2020 that left Minneapolis in tatters and fanned the flames of allegations that he resigned from the Army in order to run for Congress and avoid being deployed to Iraq. More recently, critics have leaned into his transgender accommodations in Minnesota schools, labeling him “Tampon Tim” after reports that he ordered the feminine hygiene products to be installed in all-male high school bathrooms.

, An investigation into Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s ties to China revealed that the vice presidential candidate relied on funds from the Communist Party to educate America’s children while they traveled overseas, among other notable connections that raise questions about his ability to represent American interests in the White House. Fox News host Jesse Watters reported on Wednesday that the midwestern Democrat has visited mainland China at least 30 times going back to his career as a suburban school teacher. His first visit in 1989, funded by Harvard University, coincided with the Tiananmen square protests and massacre, and upon his return Walz “spread Chinese propaganda,” Watters told his viewers. He quoted Walz, who said about his first visit, “I was treated exceptionally well… They are such kind, generous, capable people. They just gave and gave and gave to me. Going there was one of the best things I’ve ever done.” His marriage to Gwen Walz on April 15th, 1994 was exactly five years to the day of the Tiananmen square riots.
