Latest News - Mike Huckabee (2024)

So, what’s going to determine the outcome of this year’s presidential election? The will of the voters in their respective states, or that of the high-powered attorneys?

As you know, an independent congressional group --- in addition to the official task force --- is investigating the July 13 shooting of President Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania.

For those who wonder why we just keep digging into stories that the media would love to bury, like online censorship of conservative voices in the 2020 election, here’s why:

Would the last people leaving the Democratic Party please turn out the lights so we can reduce its carbon footprint and save the planet?

News you don't want to miss...

“It’s great that Mark Zuckerberg wants to talk about it now, but it’s four years too late.” That’s investigative reporter John Solomon, speaking with FOX NEWS’ Sean Hannity Tuesday night about Zuckerberg’s admission on Monday that...

News you don't want to miss...

While FBI case agent Kyle Seraphin was investigating the January 6 pipe bombs, his team was tracking an individual linked to a DC Metrorail card, a 55-year-old Air Force contractor, as a person of interest. They had also discussed that this man might be a relative or acquaintance of the person who “placed” the bomb, who was thought perhaps to be, based on physical characteristics and other evidence, a black woman.

On Friday afternoon, independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., in suspending his campaign, gave what might turn out to be the most consequential political speech of our lifetime. May it be so. Inarguably, this speech is one of the most necessary.

Sorry, ladies and gentlemen (a term which may shortly be banned by at least one anxiously inclusive airline) but I didn’t watch any events that may or may not have emanated from Chicago over the last five days.

As Kamala Harris takes the stage Thursday night to formally accept her party’s 2024 nomination for President of the United States --- good grief, I never thought I’d be typing that line --- there are some serious questions she still needs to answer about 2021.

All right, that’s it. I know, we always say that “we watch the news, so you don’t have to.” And I was resigned to watching the coverage of yet another DNC Convention. I got through the first night, even President Biden’s wacky, angry, surreal, lie-filled late-night tirade, by thinking, “Well, at least I’ll never have to listen to anything THAT bad again!”

Yesterday, we reported that the House Oversight, Judiciary and Ways and Means Committees had released their final report on the impeachable offenses committed by President Biden, much of it having to do with the high-dollar peddling of Biden’s political influence to agents of corrupt, anti-American regimes. Lawdy, lawdy, Miss Claudie!

Hillary Clinton got a big cheer by saying of Kamala Harris, “Yes, she will restore abortion rights nationwide.” Moments later, she declared, “Kamala cares, cares about kids and families.” Does that mean if kids can manage to make it out of the womb without being dismembered, she’ll care about them?

A preliminary investigative report from Louisiana Rep. Clay Higgins of the House Bipartisan Task Force on the Attempted Assassination of Donald J. Trump lays out what his committee believes to have been the sequence of gunfire at President Trump’s July 13 rally, saying that a member of the Butler SWAT team was the first to fire against the gunman, hitting his rifle from 100 yards away and disrupting his aim.

And now, for something completely different: The Non-DNC-Convention News! By now you know the story about the female Secret Service agent who, just five minutes before the arrival of President Trump’s motorcade for a North Carolina rally, left her post to breastfeed her baby.

My staffers are threatening to mutiny at the thought of having to watch four nights of the Democratic Convention this week. But they know it’s our duty to watch this garbage so you don’t have to, so we’ll suffer through it, just as I’ll have to suffer through their demands for a raise, or at least hazardous duty pay.

I didn’t want to comment too deeply on Kamala Harris’ first major policy speech on the economy before she gave it on Friday. But I did comment on the lunacy of some of the points that were released in advance.

“Self-obsessed rich guys.” That’s how the Kamala Harris campaign dismissed Monday’s history-making chat on X between President Trump and Elon Musk. But once you’ve heard it, you’ll understand why the Democrats didn’t want you to.

A judicial council ruled that a group of federal judges did not violate ethics regulations when they refused to hire Columbia University grads as law clerks.

I’ve said before that I don’t want to criticize anyone who served in the military, but the accusations against Minnesota Gov. and Harris running mate Tim Walz just keep snowballing.

Though it’s commonly said that the Second Amendment is the most important because it enforces all the others, we can’t forget that government “of the people, by the people and for the people” is not possible without the First Amendment, specifically the free exchange of information.

It’s always best to be skeptical of what your government tells you, but at this point, one has to wonder if even ONE THING this administration tells us is the truth.

If last week is any indicator, this may be dumbest vice-presidential election campaign since the late, unlamented Spiro T. Agnew threw in the towel rather than face federal prosecutors.

If you are wondering how to vote in this 2024 presidential election, the following information should end your dilemma. You may be trying to discern which candidate is the best choice to receive your vote. You may even try to analyze each candidate in detail, but this is a waste of time. The election comes down to Team Blue (Democrats) and the Team Red Team (Republican).

First of all, the “centrist” Walz doesn’t even balk at being called a socialist. He even once said that “One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.”

Considering that with Harris-Walz the left has just given us THE most outrageously leftist ticket we’ve ever seen in a presidential race, one that they, in saner times, wouldn’t have dared risk, one that the right is even (relatively speaking) happy to be running against, it’s time to wonder what is really going on with the Democrats.

Last night, the Democrats took another step in their crusade to “save our democracy” by letting party elites officially anoint Kamala Harris as their nominee without any challengers or without her earning a single vote in the primary elections, which were won by someone else. Democracy!

Tuesday morning, US stock futures bounced back a bit after Monday’s historic plummet, when the NASDAQ fell over 1,000 points for the first time ever. But we’re hardly out of the woods yet. The Dow dropped over 1,000 points on Monday, on top of big losses last week. As of this writing, the Dow is back up by about 480 points.

These two Secret Service stories are connected, through the Department of Homeland Security inspector general who’s investigating both. (The Secret Service is under the purview of the DHS.)

“No one wants to believe that the Secret Service intentionally left Trump vulnerable, yet evidence keeps piling up that this was the case.”

And the media attempt to paint VP candidate J. D. Vance as weird was itself about as weird as things can get. The Democrats and media colluded to push that very word over 150 times in one day. And THAT was weird.

Ronald Rowe looks straight out of Central Casting for the character one might envision as head of the Secret Service --- brawny, tough, serious. And he’s a 24-year veteran of the agency, a member of George W. Bush’s protective detail from 2004 to 2008. But this new replacement for Director Kimberly Cheatle, previously her second-in-command, isn’t a good fit for an agency in need of reform.

James Copenhaver, one of the shooting victims at Trump’s July 13 rally, was hit twice, critically injured and has only recently been discharged from the hospital. Before the bullets struck him, though, he happened to record some amazing video that catches glimpses of the rooftop gunman from a new vantage point.

Some Republicans are concerned about a new Morning Consult poll showing a big bounce for Kamala Harris, with her leading Trump by 11 points in Michigan

For anyone who’s considering voting for Kamala Harris for President because she’s black and female, or whatever other meaningless surface reasons are being floated, ponder this:

When Charles Dickens penned those immortal lines, “It was the best of times., it was the worst of times, it was the age of wisdom, it was the age of foolishness,…” he had Paris in mind.

There’s probably a lot coming this week about the assassination attempt on President Trump and the security screw-ups at his Pennsylvania rally.

In recent weeks, a number of readers have written in to ask how they can talk to family and friends who are so TDS-infected and indoctrinated by the left that there’s seemingly nothing to be said that won’t be rejected.

One of the first questions we had after the assassination attempt on Trump almost two weeks ago was, “Why wasn’t Trump’s security detail using drones to get an overhead view of the location?”

You’ve heard the expression, “A little child shall lead them”? Well, it’s too bad that school officials and a federal judge in California (naturally) don’t have the sense that a first-grader does.

Tonight, President Biden will address the nation from the Oval Office, marking his first public appearance in well over a week, since he “got COVID,” then dropped out of the race and endorsed Kamala Harris.

Do you remember when we said that if the Trump-Biden debate actually happened, it would be only as a deliberate set-up of Biden by his own party, to get him out of the race?

If Kamala Harris is the Democrats’ nominee, Donald Trump immediately let it be known that he will not be any easier on her than he was on Joe Biden,

Monday’s hearing before the House Oversight Committee investigating the near-assassination of Donald Trump yielded only one useful benchmark.

Disgraced Secret Service Director Kim Cheatle did show up to warm a chair at a hearing of the House Oversight Committee Monday. She may not have dodged a subpoena, but she dodged even the most basic questions put to her about the attempted assassination of President Trump.

Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle is scheduled to testify before the House Judiciary Committee on Monday about the massive security failure surrounding President Trump’s near-assassination.

How interesting it would have been to be a fly on the wall during President Trump’s alleged meeting with Secret Service Director Kimberly Cheatle on Tuesday in Milwaukee. (She was there in an attempt to do damage control at the GOP Convention. It didn’t go well, as you saw yesterday.)

Last night was opening night of the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee, and I thought it came off quite impressively, and in some ways, surprisingly. While the night’s theme was “Make America Wealthy Again,” it could’ve easily been “Myth Busters” or “This Is Not Your Granddad’s GOP.”

Donald Trump is a former top-rated reality show star, so he knows the PR value of the “Big Reveal.” After teasing it out for weeks, on Monday, he revealed that his Vice Presidential pick is…(drumroll)…Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance, come on down!!

The attempted assassination of President Trump on Saturday illustrates the need for the “72-hour rule” that we try to follow before coming to conclusions. This one will take longer than 72 hours, but at least there’s more to go on now, though it’s almost impossible to comprehend.

With so much ground to cover on the attempted assassination of President Trump on Saturday, the focus here will be on the shocking failure of the Secret Service --- the agency, not Trump’s personal detail, which was stellar --- to protect him.

There has been so much news relating to the assassination attempt on former (and future) President Trump, and it’s still pouring in 24/7, that it’s impossible for us to cover it all here. So we’re just going to recap some of the major points.

With a trained historian’s eye, former House Speaker Newt Gingrich was right last night when he described Donald Trump's narrow escape from assassination as “providential.” The nation today should echo those sentiments because, by mere millimeters, America escaped the secondary explosions that certainly would have followed Trump’s murder.

Shots were fired at a Trump rally Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania. Former President Trump grabbed his ear and dropped behind the podium. Secret Service agents rushed to cover him and helped him to his feet. He left clutching his right ear, which appeared bloodied, and fist-pumped to the crowd as he was taken to a waiting car to rush him to a hospital.

It’s one of those leftist groups with an innocuous-sounding name that states the opposite of its actual agenda.

Did you SEE it? Gee, that’s the same question everybody was asking after the Trump-Biden debate a couple of weeks ago.

Not to spend a lot of time on the blow-by-blow account of Democrats coming together to, inevitably, take Biden out of the race (and maybe the Oval Office), but here’s one moment from Wednesday that’s oddly interesting: Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman’s expression of support for President Biden, as voiced on Jesse Watters’ FOX NEWS show.

Idaho Gov. Brad Little signed an executive order to the Secretary of State to “take all necessary steps” to ensure that only US citizens can register to vote, in order to “protect election integrity, voter confidence and the sanctity of voting.”

Wednesday morning, the House Judiciary Committee released a shocking report on corporate collusion to silence conservative online news outlets and commentators by blocking their advertising revenue. Well, it was hardly shocking to me, but it confirmed a lot of my suspicions after doing my newsletter for years.

When former President Trump and President Biden let the question of which was more fit for office at their debate devolve into an argument over who was the best golfer, I thought it wasn’t exactly relatable to most viewers, but at least Biden was being coherent -- that is, if you knew the handicap that he kept mentioning referred to golf.

I have loved the Oak Ridge Boys for decades. Who didn’t? They have been “America’s Band” since the 60’s and the current configuration has been together over 50 years. But this past year has been a tough one.

I was so saddened and surprised to hear of the death of Senator Jim Inhofe of Oklahoma. He was a good friend who supported me from the earliest days of my political endeavors.

A federal judge sided with Republican Rep. Ronny Jackson and other plaintiffs, finding that the Biden Administration is in violation of the law by failing to enforce the Taylor Force Act.

On Tuesday, House and Senate Democrats held an “emergency” closed-door session on Capitol Hill, with tensions reportedly running high. It started with a sprightly group of singing nuns bounding to the stage and singing “How Do You Solve a Problem Like Joe Biden?”

I promised I wouldn’t cover all the rumbling over whether Biden will or won’t drop out of the race, but here are a few of the more interesting moments in that saga from Monday.

There’s a rule on the Internet called “Godwin’s Law” that states that the longer an argument goes on on the Internet, the more likely it is that one side will compare the other to Hitler.

While most media outlets are suddenly obsessed with talking about Joe Biden’s cognitive abilities (something we already figured out long ago), and the Democrats are engaging in public catfights, Donald Trump and his campaign have wisely remained, for the most part, pretty quiet on this issue.

Let’s just say it: We expect the Democrat Party to cheat like crazy in November. The only logical reason they would’ve worked so tirelessly to set up a system this vulnerable and this opaque is so they can cheat more easily, more undetectably, and on as large a scale as they might need. No other explanation makes sense.

I know that most Americans don’t have much interest in elections in other nations, but when our longtime allies France and Great Britain take a nosedive into the deep end of an empty pool by electing far-left governments, that bodes very badly not only for all of Europe but the entire world.

They lied when they told us Donald Trump was an agent of Vladimir Putin. They lied when, ahead of the 2020 election, they maintained that Hunter Biden’s laptop was “Russian disinformation.”

Well, we’re back from our brief vacation from the daily news! Did anything happen while we were gone? No, I’m only joking. My writers and I were VINOs: Vacationers In Name Only. We were supposed to be relaxing on a much-needed break, but we couldn’t resist constantly checking the news, if for no other reason than to watch the Democrats and the media (but I repeat myself) having a volcanic meltdown

Our president admits to being an old man who has slowed down a step or two. Ever since last week’s debate, most people understand that a Tele-prompter and fawning press munchkins are typical components of the Biden family repertoire. But does it really make any difference?

Well, I know many people were watching the debate to see if President Biden would have a “senior moment,” but I don’t think anyone was expecting he’d have one that lasted 90 minutes.

Inextricable linkages are defined as something that is impossible to unravel or separate from something else. In yesterday’s world, there was an inextricable link between the United States and being an American.

I don’t make predictions very often because in most situations there are just too many unknowns. But for at least three years, I have been absolutely convinced that Joe Biden wouldn’t be the nominee for President in 2024 and that the Democrats had a plan to replace him on the ticket with someone who is not Kamala Harris.

Biden is not only losing support among women and minorities, but also among one of their most reliable voting blocs: young voters whose brains haven’t fully matured and who haven’t gone out into the real world and started paying taxes yet.

The best part of the upcoming debate for President Biden is that he can’t wait to call former President Trump a convicted felon.

There is virtually no chance that Wednesday’s exclusive, hard-hitting story by Paul Sperry of Real Clear Investigations will make it past the CNN censors supervising Thursday night’s presidential debate. That is a shame because Sperry’s revelations suggest nothing less than that the American intelligence establishment helped Democrats to lie during the most critical periods during the presidential electoral campaigns of 2016 and 2020.

There were a lot of races, but three were of particular interest.

It’s very telling that one of the biggest news bombshells of the weekend was that a liberal “fact-checking” site actually told the truth about Trump, only seven years after the lie in question became one of the biggest stories in the media, and after seven long years of us repeatedly correcting it.

Fox News reports that billionaire and former New York City Mayor Mike Bloomberg has donated $20 million to reelect Joe Biden.

With the so-called “classified documents” trial against Trump paused for several months, and as we wait for a Supreme Court decision on the extent of presidential immunity, this seems like a good time to take a comprehensive look at Jack Smith’s appointment as special counsel and whether it was even legitimate in the first place.

When I survey the smoking rubble that is the Biden Administration, I often marvel at polls showing that millions of Americans want four more years of this.

The New York Court of Appeals refused former President Trump’s request to lift the gag order put on him by Judge Juan Merchan, ruling that "no substantial constitutional question is directly involved."

I try not to get too thick into the weeds on COVID stories, but like the tragic Afghanistan pullout, it’s a story the media would love for us to forget and we absolutely cannot allow that to happen.

New York Magazine is justifiably getting raked over the coals for a clueless cover story questioning how women could be Republicans.

Devon Archer, Hunter Biden’s former business partner, is currently serving prison time after being convicted of defrauding a Native American tribe in a bond scheme.

As reported by an approving NEW YORK TIMES, a new Biden campaign ad says, “This election is between a convicted criminal who is only out for himself and a President who is fighting for your family.”

If the recent news that Israeli forces rescued four Hamas hostages who were being held in the homes of a doctor and a “journalist” didn’t crack the bubble of delusion around American pro-Palestinian protesters, I doubt this will, either, but here goes:

Perhaps only the more engaged right-leaning voters will even see this story, and it’s not one of those “pocketbook” issues, but it’s concerning because it adds a couple more notches to the belt of our corrupt “justice” system as it continues overseeing its own power.

As Trump rises in the polls, we’re hearing more and more hysteria about his reelection equaling a far-right dictatorship, even though he already served a term during which there were no gulags for journalists or illegal alien concentration camps.

Sanity is returning, just in time for the election. Last week, a federal judge in Louisiana blocked the Biden Administration’s attempt to rewrite the Title IX sex discrimination law to include “gender identity,” allowing men who claim to “identify” as women to enter women’s sports, locker rooms and restrooms.

Last week, we discussed the options Congress has for dealing with Attorney General Merrick Garland after his refusal to turn over the audio recording of the special counsel’s interview with President Biden in his “classified documents” case.

Last week, we discussed the options Congress has for dealing with Attorney General Merrick Garland after his refusal to turn over the audio recording of the special counsel’s interview with President Biden in his “classified documents” case.

We’ve just seen that the DOJ refuses to prosecute Merrick Garland on contempt of Congress charges for not turning over the audio of President Biden’s testimony in his “classified documents” case being investigated by Special Counsel Robert Hur. So it should come as no surprise that they demonstrate essentially no interest in the killing of Little Rock Airport executive Bryan Malinowski in March of this year...

Former President Donald Trump gave an interview to pro wrestler and popular podcaster Logan Paul, and it went over so well, James Carville would be pulling his hair out if he had any left.

By now you’ve seen the video of then-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, taken by daughter Alexandra as they were being driven away from the Capitol on January 6, in which she laments not being adequately prepared and takes responsibility for that.

Biden Attorney General Merrick Garland has been acting as if he were above the law and now is shocked to see he’s beneath our contempt.
