Conservative reveals one thing he thinks Trump 'intends to actually do' as president



Longtime conservative and staunch Donald Trump critic, Charlie Sykes, on Tuesday predicted that one of the promises the former president has failed to keep, is one Sykes believes the MAGA hopeful will keep if he wins in November.

"Could we just freeze the moment and look at what Donald Trump is saying that he's going to do? What he is explicitly running on, the lies he's willing to tell," Sykes said, speaking with MSNBC's Nicolle Wallace.

"This is something that I think he intends to do," the former Bulwark editor-in-chief continued. "Eight years ago, he was talking about 'I'm going to build a wall, and Mexico is going to pay for it.' And I think we knew that was bogus. It was never going to happen."

"I think we need to take this literally and seriously," Sykes continued. "I believe that he is thinking through the infrastructure — how he would use this. He would bypass Congress and the courts and there would be little or no due process in what he's doing here. This is one of those choices where we have to decide what we are as a country. Not where we stand on the Democrat, Republican, conservative, liberal continuum, because we're way off of that."

Sykes' comments come after the former president called for Haitian migrants to be sent back to where they came from during his Monday, September 23 Pennsylvania rally.

PA GOP Senate candidate who says he 'started with nothing' actually grew up in a mansion

Image
David McCormick, who is Pennsylvania's presumptive Republican U.S. Senate nominee, has often suggested he grew up poor in a rural community. But a new report finds that his upbringing was far more affluent than he's suggested. The New York Times reported Friday that McCormick — a former hedge fund executive who lived in Connecticut as recently as 2022 — has been cagey with voters about his childhood. McCormick has tweeted that he was "raised in Bloomsburg working on his family's farm," said on a 2022 podcast that he " started with nothing " and told CBS News that same year that he " didn't have anything " growing up as the son of two schoolteachers. But according to the Times , McCormick's father, Dr. James H. McCormick , was appointed president of what is now Bloomsburg University by Gov. Milton Schapp (D) in 1973. He moved his family into Buckalew Place — the official mansion for presidents of the school that currently spans 5...

How misinformation could shape the Israel-Hamas war

Image
I wanted to interview Nicholas Grossman regarding the role of misinformation in the war between Israel and Hamas. In particular, I hoped to ask the professor of international relations at the University of Illinois, and senior editor of Arc Digital , about misinformation that arose from American reporting on an explosion at a hospital in Gaza. You know what? I ended up repeating a bit of misinformation! I asked him to lay out the facts about a blast that “killed hundreds, including kids,” and he said nuh-uh (not his words). In fact, Professor Grossman said, “there never were hundreds killed by an explosion at that hospital. Media reported that the hospital was destroyed by an Israeli airstrike killing 500, but that was based on something a Hamas-controlled agency said and was never supported by evidence.” Professor Grossman went on to say “what apparently did happen is something hit a nearby parking lot and caused a smaller explosion, most likely a rocket fired from Gaza towards I...

Trump was hit by glass fragments — not a bullet: report

Image
Law enforcement officials have claimed to two different sources that former President Donald Trump was not grazed by a bullet but rather by glass shards. The officials in question told both Newsmax's Alex Salvi and Axios' Juliegrace Brufke that Trump was hit by glass shards that may have erupted from the shattering of a teleprompter that was hit by gunfire. Earlier on Saturday, law enforcement sources confirmed that the person suspected of firing a weapon at a Pennsylvania Trump rally had been killed, as had at least one person in the crowd. Videos showed Trump grabbing his neck after apparent gunshots had been fired before Secret Service agents pulled him to the ground. They then took him away in an armored vehicle to a hospital where he was treated for injuries. The identity of the shooting suspect has not yet been released. from Alternet.org https://ift.tt/ILgqr53 via sinceretalk
