Trump Blamed for Killing 1300 Frenchmen?

Audrey Pulvar, deputy mayor of Paris for international relations, on social media.

Blames Trump for the 1300 deaths in France from the Heat Wave

She wrote:

“Dear American journalists and social media ‘influencers’: for days, some of you have been criticising and making fun of Paris because the city does not have A/C in every room…OMG, this is so rich!”

“As the second-largest emitter of greenhouse gas emissions in the world, you bear a significant amount of responsibility for global warming and the consequences we, in France, are experiencing. Your cities, which are 90 per cent air conditioned, are not unrelated to this.”

No wonder Macron wants WWIII. Perhaps Russia will nuke all the air conditioning in the US to save France

Can a U.S. Senator Encourage Troops to Disobey Orders? The Mark Kelly Case

When six Democratic lawmakers released a video in November 2025 urging U.S. troops to refuse unlawful military orders, they framed it as a defense of the Constitution. The Trump administration called it sedition.

The video appeared against the backdrop of two controversial administration actions: the deployment of National Guard troops to U.S. cities, a policy being actively litigated in federal court, and U.S. military strikes on suspected drug-trafficking vessels in the Caribbean and eastern Pacific.

It is important to note that no court had issued a final ruling determining either policy to be illegal, nor had any court found that illegal orders were given to individual U.S. troops. Equally significant, even if the Supreme Court were to ultimately determine that the president lacked the authority to order these deployments, the duties carried out by individual soldiers would not necessarily constitute illegal orders. Both issues involve complex questions of constitutional law that ordinary soldiers are neither trained nor qualified to adjudicate.

The lawmakers named neither action in the video, nor did they identify any specific order they considered unlawful. That omission would prove legally significant. Under military law, there is a critical distinction between reminding soldiers of a constitutional principle and encouraging them to act on their own political judgments. The latter is not a constitutional safeguard. It is a prescription for insubordination, and in some circumstances a crime.

The senator at the center of the resulting legal battle is Mark Kelly, a Democratic U.S. Senator from Arizona, a retired Navy Captain, and a former NASA astronaut who commanded multiple Space Shuttle missions.

They Classified It So No One Could See It: The Obama Team’s War on a Duly Elected President

Consider what it takes to lie to a free people at scale. A private liar can deceive a neighbor. A campaign can deceive a district. But to deceive an entire nation, and to do it durably, you need something rarer. You need an institution the public has been trained to trust, and you need to borrow its authority. The intelligence community is that institution. When career officers say a thing is so, citizens reasonably assume the judgment rests on secret evidence too sensitive to share. That trust is precisely what makes the apparatus so dangerous when it is turned, because a borrowed badge of credibility can launder a falsehood into a fact. This is the heart of the matter, and it is why the events of 2016 through 2020 deserve a stark description. The coordinated politicization of US intelligence by the Obama administration, the Clinton campaign, and an interlocking network of operatives was the single greatest disinformation campaign in American history.

I want to be careful with that claim, because careless conservatives have squandered credibility by overreaching, and the fact-checkers are waiting. So let me say plainly what I am not arguing. This was not treason in the strict constitutional sense, which requires levying war against the US or adhering to its enemies, proven by two witnesses to an overt act. That high bar is not met here, and pretending otherwise only hands critics an easy rebuttal. What I am arguing is more precise and, in some ways, more damning. The conduct fits the ordinary legal definition of conspiracy, a secret agreement to achieve unlawful ends through unlawful means, and it carries the unmistakable character of sedition, the deliberate poisoning of public perception against a lawful government. The aim was to subvert an election and, having failed at that, to cripple the presidency the voters chose.

Begin with the money, because money leaves a paper trail, and the trail here is not seriously contested. The Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee routed roughly $1.02 million to the law firm Perkins Coie for what they would later report to regulators as legal services. Perkins Coie retained the research firm Fusion GPS, which in turn hired a former British intelligence officer named Christopher Steele, paying his firm roughly $168,000. The product of this arrangement was the now-infamous Steele dossier, a collection of unverified and largely uncorroborated allegations. The political origin of that document is not a matter of conjecture. In 2022 the Federal Election Commission fined the Clinton campaign $8,000 and the DNC $105,000 for misreporting these payments as legal expenses rather than the opposition research they were. A campaign paid for a smear, mislabeled it, and then the smear migrated into the machinery of federal law enforcement.

Clinton Blames Biden for Trump Presidency

After spending years defending him, campaigning for him, endorsing him, and standing beside him while anyone who questioned his fitness was attacked as a conspiracy theorist, Hillary Clinton now says Biden made a “terrible mistake” by running again. That is convenient, but the problem is that Biden did not act alone. The entire Democratic establishment knew exactly what was happening and saw his cognitive decline. They heard the incoherent speeches, watched the debates. Yet they all marched in lockstep behind a man they insisted was perfectly capable of serving another four years.

Clinton is really attempting to do is rewrite history. Biden did not force the Democratic Party to rally behind him. The party leadership, the donors, the consultants, the media allies, and every major power center in Washington actively protected him from criticism. Anyone who raised concerns about his age or cognitive condition was dismissed. They shut down a meaningful primary process and effectively told Democratic voters that there would be no debate, no competition, and no alternative. Then, after the disastrous debate exposed what millions of Americans had already seen with their own eyes, panic set in. The same people who spent years telling the public everything was fine suddenly discovered there was a problem.

Schumer Lashes Out at Trump, Calls SAVE America Act an “All Out Assault on Voting Rights” in Senate Floor Rant

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer went off on President Trump for canceling the housing bill signing ceremony until the SAVE America Act is passed.

Schumer lashed out at President Trump over the SAVE America Act.

“The GOP will continue going along with Trump’s all out assault on voting rights with legislation like the SAVE Act,” Schumer said in a rant from the Senate floor.

Last week, Schumer accidentally made the case for the SAVE America Act during an appearance on MS NOW with host Lawrence O’Donnell.

The Democrat leader said the SAVE America Act will remove 25 million to 30 million people from the voter rolls.

“So here’s a prediction that I think you’re going to like. “The Republican Party will never win another election. I will sadly be the last Republican president. Senate Majority Leader John Thune and the Republican Senate must not let this carnage happen.” That’s Donald Trump’s prediction today that the Republican Party will never win another election. You will be the next Senate Majority Leader. And he’s saying all of that because the Republicans in the Senate are not trying to push through his bill to restrict voting in this country,” Lawrence O’Donnell said to Schumer.

Schumer trashed the SAVE America Act and said it would remove 25 million to 30 million (illegals and ineligible voters) from the voter rolls.

“Well, that’s right. This is this horrible thing, the SAVE Act, one of the worst, most anti-election democracy things that’s ever been proposed. They say it’s, “oh, it’s all about ID, voter ID.” It’s not. They will remove 25 million people off the rolls. Why? Because they’ll require, under this act, which is not going to pass and we’re not going to let it pass. We’ve defeated it in court. I was a lead plaintiff in the decision to do that. We’ve refused to give them the votes that they would want for this. We never will. What it does is it says every state send your election rolls, not to the Justice Department or the voting division, but to the Department of Homeland Security, where Musk and DOGE and Vought have installed an algorithm that determines whether you’re legitimately right to vote or not,” Schumer said.

He continued, “The algorithm is a fix. It’ll knock 20 million people, 30 million people off the rolls, and they don’t tell you. So Mr. Lawrence O’Donnell could show up at the same voting place he showed up every so often, shown his same ID. “Sorry, you’re not on the rolls anymore, sir.” “Well, what do I do about it?” “Next week, go to the Board of Elections.” Trump knows he will lose the election – he said it – because he has created such chaos and because we Democrats have shown what we’re for and the contrast between what we’re for and he’s for, and there’s such a contrast. And so, he’s got to fix it. We’re not letting him do it.”

A federal judge on Wednesday permanently banned Trump from implementing his executive order that required proof of citizenship when they register to vote.

Elizabeth Warren: Donald Trump Is ‘Trying to Subvert Democracy’ with SAVE America Act

Wednesday on MS NOW’s “On the Line,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) said President Donald Trump was trying to “subvert democracy” after he canceled the signing of a housing bill until the SAVE America Act is passed.

Warren said, “Donald Trump seems to think that the way he and the Republicans will win elections is to keep American citizens from voting. At least keep certain American citizens from voting. That’s his entire plan. And you know why he’s doing that? Because he’s losing and he knows he’s losing. Donald Trump pays attention to the polls. He knows that his polling is we’re down in the 30s. He knows that he is tying his Republican Party to a losing message. He knows that Americans across this country look out and say he’s made $2 billion on crypto. His kids are out there scamming money or being related to the president of the United States. People are sick of the corruption. They’re sick of the chaos, and they’re sick of the policies that Donald Trump is using to drive up costs. The tariffs that have driven up costs, the energy policies that have driven up costs, the health care changes that have driven up costs, and a war halfway around the world that has driven up costs.”

She added, “He is in trouble. And instead of changing his policies, instead of doing what the American people need and want, he’s off saying, I’m going to keep a bunch of them from voting. And that’s what he’s throwing down on. This is Donald Trump trying to subvert democracy because he understands that democracy is not going to be in favor of Donald Trump and the Republicans come November.”

Brad Lander Declares Goal to ‘Vanquish Trump’s Fascism’ and ‘Abolish ICE’ in Victory Speech After Ousting NY Rep. Dan Goldman

Former New York City Comptroller Brad Lander won the Democrat primary for New York’s 10th Congressional District on Tuesday, defeating two-term incumbent Rep. Dan Goldman in a landslide.

Lander, a far-left Democrat, secured the nomination in the heavily blue district covering parts of Brooklyn and Manhattan.

Speaking to supporters and the media at a Brooklyn victory event, Lander outlined aggressive priorities centered on opposing President Donald Trump and dismantling immigration enforcement.

“Solidarity is the force that we need to vanquish Trump’s fascism, to abolish ICE, and to stand up to the billionaires who are rigging our economy against us!” Landers declared.

Lander also vowed to resume direct action against ICE immediately, telling the crowd he would return to 26 Federal Plaza the following morning to continue protesting immigration enforcement operations there.

The candidate has a history of aggressive activism at the site, including prior arrests during protests.

“I Think Kamala Won” – Election Deniers Rosie O’Donnell and Jim Acosta Push Conspiracy Theory That Trump Stole the 2024 Election and is Rigging Midterms

Rosie O’Donnell and former CNN White House reporter Jim Acosta put their Trump Derangement Syndrome on full display this week, teaming up to push what has been referred to as “election denialism” and a “threat to democracy.”

During an interview on Acosta’s show, Rosie declared that Trump stole the election from Kamala Harris. Though Acosta was skeptical about the theory, he endorsed the idea that the midterms will be stolen or outright canceled by Trump.

“So most people are very, very, very shocked, scared, and absolutely astonished that he is the President of the United States, and I think I am too. I mean, part of the reason that I left is I never in a million years thought we would put a convicted felon who tried to start an insurrection back in office,” O’Donnell said. Very ironic considering Trump saying the election was stolen is what these people considered insurrection.

“How did that happen? I don’t think it happened. I think Kamala won. I do,” she continued, as Acosta called her idea “interesting.”

O’Donnell went on with her crazed theory, suggesting that Elon Musk was the golden ticket and that, perhaps, the tech billionaire had something to do with rigging the votes.

“And I think that we’re going to find all this out. It’s going to come out, and it’s, I’m not the first person to say this, there are all these researchers who are saying it. I read it online again today. And you know, the Elon Musk, of it all,” she said, asking Acosta, “What did he do for Donald that was able to give him back all that he gave him back? What did he do, you think, for the Donald in that election?”

But Acosta wasn’t willing to admit that it’s possible to cheat in elections. After all, that would make him a hypocrite after denying that the 2020 election was stolen from Trump.

“It’s hard to believe, I mean, especially now, that he, that he, that he won. I mean, it’s, it is hard to believe that. I mean, I, I tend to, you know, maybe it’s because I’m old-fashioned, you know, and patriotic, and grew up in this country, you know, watching, you know, Tom Hanks and Saving Private Ryan, I would never think that something like that can happen. So I tend to trust it,” he stammered. “But I do worry he’s going to try to steal the next one.”

Rosie took the conspiracy theory even further, claiming that Trump isn’t going to steal the election, but cancel it, calling him a “Fascist.”

“Well, I don’t think he’s going to try to steal it. I think he’s going to come up with some big tragedy. We’re going to have an event here in the United States in some capacity, maybe another assassination attempt, and he’s going to declare that the elections are off,” she said. “That’s what I think is going to happen because that’s in the Fascist playbook.”

Acosta was audibly agreeing with her, saying “yes” as she spewed her insane theories.

YOU CAN’T MAKE THIS STUFF UP: Literal “Pro-Algae” Protesters Storm Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool to Oppose Trump Admin Cleanup

In the latest chapter of unhinged Trump Derangement Syndrome, a group of far-left activists has turned the Lincoln Memorial Reflecting Pool into a bizarre battlefield, this time protesting the removal of algae from President Trump’s freshly renovated national landmark.

Independent journalist Emily Miller captured the circus on the ground and even interviewed the self-described “Team Algae” protesters who reportedly return every day to fight the cleanup.

“We have reached peak circus here,” Miller said as National Park Service crews vacuumed out the green slime using advanced nanobubble technology.

DERANGED Anti-Trump Leftist Charged with Hate Crime After Burning Cross With MAGA Hat on Top in Chicago’s Grant Park Released From Jail — Judge Only Bans Him From Possessing Wood or Kerosene

A 21-year-old anti-Trump activist charged with multiple felonies, including hate crimes, was released from jail Thursday after burning a cross in Chicago’s Grant Park and placing a Make America Great Again hat on top of it.

As The Gateway Pundit previously reported, what was initially hyped by Chicago officials, Rev. Michael Pfleger, and media as a racist “white supremacist” or KKK-style attack in Grant Park turned out to be the work of a deranged anti-Trump, anti-MAGA leftist.

On June 9, 2026, police and firefighters responded to a burning cross in Chicago’s Grant Park.

The incident prompted immediate backlash, and one local church offered a $10,000 reward to help make an arrest, and local officials were quick to blame the incident on racism and ‘white supremacists.’

Block Club Chicago reports that Rev. Michael Pfleger of St. Sabina Church, who offered the reward,  noted, “Racism has always been a part of America’s DNA, and this week it has raised its head boldly and loudly,” Pfleger said in a statement.

“This bold rise of racism must be condemned by every race, faith community, and Chicagoan as was done with the swastika and treated as a hate crime.”

As it turns out, however, the cross-burner is an Asian man, Merlin Lu, 21, a University of Illinois Chicago senior, who burned the cross, adorned with a MAGA hat, to protest President Trump and MAGA.

Lu allegedly told police that “The greatest threat to the American people is [President] Trump, [Jeffrey] Epstein, their billionaire pedophile friends, and their MAGA Christian nationalist base.”

Now, the same Merlin Lu,  has been released back onto the streets by a Cook County judge after facing serious felony charges for torching a cross with a MAGA hat tied on top.

On Thursday, Lu appeared in Cook County court. Despite the gravity of the charges, multiple felonies targeting a protected class and using fire to intimidate, the judge refused to detain him. Lu was released pending trial (next court date June 22).

The judge’s tough-talking condition? Lu is prohibited from possessing fire-starting materials like wood or kerosene. That’s it.

Not held without bond. Not monitored aggressively. Just “don’t buy wood or kerosene,” as if this unhinged individual who openly frames Trump supporters and Christians as existential threats alongside pedophile billionaires will suddenly become harmless without kindling.
