Robert Kennedy, Jr. says Democrat lawfare attack on President Trump will backfire.

The Biden administration announced on Monday that they will finally provide Secret Service protection to Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

Despite requesting Secret Service protection on three occasions in the past, Kennedy, the son of the late Senator Robert F. Kennedy and nephew of John F. Kennedy, who were both assassinated, the Biden Regime has refused to provide him with presidential security.

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier today, President Trump called for the Secret Service to be assigned to Kennedy immediately.

Trump Calls For The Secret Service to Give RFK Jr. Protection Immediately

Kennedy responded to Trump’s statement on X, writing,

It is a hopeful sign for our country when a political opponent calls for one’s protection. Maybe our country can unite after all.

Last year, Kennedy requested Secret Service protection after a man was arrested for intruding into his home twice on the same day.

Following Trump’s demands, DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, during a White House press briefing on Monday, announced, “In light of this weekend’s events, the president has directed me to work with the Secret Service to provide protection to Robert Kennedy Jr.”

The former President Donald Trump announced Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his Vice President running mate on Monday, following months of speculation.

Vance, 39, not only brings youth to the ticket but also populist ideological bonafides to bolster Trump’s campaign. Trump’s son, Don Jr., was a vocal advocate for Vance in the final run-up to the announcement as other VP hopefuls including Gov. Doug Burgum (R-ND) and Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fl) faded.

The selection by Trump solidifies Vance as the ideological heir to the MAGA doctrine going forward. Should the Trump ticket win in November, Vance would become the 50th Vice President of the United States and one of the youngest. 

Vance’s early life was the premise of his bestselling memoir, Hillbilly Elegy, which tracks his life from growing-up in poverty, to joining the Marine Corps (where he fought in Iraq), to getting accepted into Yale Law School. Vance cites his time in the Marines and service in the Iraq War as a catalyst for his skepticism about U.S. foreign policy adventurism.

Vance is known for his populist domestic policies and a realist view on foreign policy. Vance has consistently questioned further U.S. aid to Ukraine, and opposed calls for escalation with Iran last October. In May, Vance spoke at a conference hosted by The American Conservative and the Quincy Institute, where he spoke about the harmony of Christian morality and foreign policy restraint. 

Vance has found bipartisan appeal, working across the aisle on many populist initiatives, such as the 2023 rail safety bill with Senators Sherrod Brown (D-OH), John Fetterman (D-PA), Bob Casey (D-PA), Josh Hawley (R-MO), and Marco Rubio.

For years the mainstream media has aided and abetted Democrats in their violent and dehumanizing language against Donald Trump and conservatives.

And yet, when their constant mantra contributed to the attempted assassination of President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on Saturday, suddenly the media is engaged in collective navel gazing and questioning of “What happened?” “What motivated the shooter?” “Wherever did he get his violent thoughts from?”

At a press conference following the assassination attempt, Sam Pirozzolo from the Staten Island GOP did not let members of the MSM get away with their nonsense.

A reporter asked Pirozzolo if he knew the shooter was allegedly a registered Republican, “You guys know about that?”

Pirozzolo asked, “I don’t know who you are, so I’d just like to… Before I answer your question, what’s your name?”

The reporter responded, “Daniel.”

Pirozzolo asked, “Daniel, from where?”

“From NBC.”

Pirozzolo asked another reporter, “And sir, where are you from?”

That reporter responded, “Burkett with Channel 7.”

And then Pirozzolo scorched the room.

“Okay. So you want to talk about the fact the guy may be a Republican, or at least registered in the Republican Party, which anybody in this country is free to do.”

One of the reporters said, “I didn’t ask that question, by the way.”

Pirozzolo reponded, “That’s fine. But you did suggest, and you’re talking about rhetoric. So are you saying that it’s not okay for us to denounce violence? Are you saying that we should wait until we know what’s going on?”

“Everybody on the planet knows that you have MSNBC, The New York Times, Rachel Maddow, The View, you have Maxine Waters. ‘Oh, let’s get in their faces.’”

“You have this going on every day, and you dare to say to us, shouldn’t we wait? No, we shouldn’t wait. Right now is the time to say that we need to cool things down. We don’t have to wait for your permission. We don’t have to wait for anybody’s permission, regardless of this young man’s motivation.”

“What he did was wrong. He tried to assassinate a President of the United States, and you stand there and say, ‘Well, maybe I should wait. Maybe it’s okay?’”

“Are you saying the fact that he was registered to the Republican Party absolves him of everything, absolves all of the media, of all of the coverage they’ve done for the last 10 years? Absolutely not. That is a pathetic question, and I think you guys should be ashamed. I mean, I don’t know you personally, but it’s pathetic that you would even suggest that he’s a Republican, therefore everything is okay.”

“When you have social media, you have control of the media, you talk about the laptop, you talk about Russian collusion, all of that we have to forget because maybe this guy was registered or is registered to the Republican Party.”

“You should be ashamed of yourselves.”

A reporter replied, “I don’t think what he’s saying is that. I think what they’re saying is when he says they did it. They did it. They don’t know that.”

Pirozzolo responded, “It’s what I’m saying. Listen, I take all these DEI classes, and in the DEI classes, they say that it’s not what the question is. It’s how the person who perceives the question takes it. That’s how I take it.”

Americans concerned about being able to feed their family today, tomorrow, or anytime before 2049 can take advantage of 25% off all products at Prepper All-Naturals with promo code “veterans25” for a limited time.

On top of that, 10% of net revenue will be donated to a veterans charity chosen by co-founder Jason “Storm” Nelson, a combat disable veteran. The reason for this sale is actually quite funny.

“Right after we ordered a huge batch of mylar bags, we decided to rebrand with a new bag design,” Nelson said. “So we have all of these bags with the older design that we need to use up.”

The thick, resealable mylar bags are used in combination with oxygen absorbers to keep the freeze dried beef inside shelf-stable for decades. They cannot and should not be discarded, so Prepper All-Naturals is offering the 25% discount until the old mylar is all gone.

The company uses the highest quality mylar because their products have one ingredient: Beef. There are not preservatives or anything else. They don’t even add salt so the beef can fit in with the vast majority of American diets.

Bad timing of the rebrand means now is the best timing to stock up on long-term storage beef.

Investment giant BlackRock has pulled a controversial advertisement following revelations that Thomas Matthew Crooks, the gunman involved in the recent shooting at a Trump rally, appeared in the ad.

The incident, which took place at a rally near Pittsburgh, resulted in the injury of former President Donald Trump and the death of an attendee.

BlackRock confirmed that Crooks, a former student at Bethel Park High School, appeared briefly in a 2022 commercial featuring a teacher from the same school.

The video, which went viral on social media, has since been removed from circulation. In a statement, BlackRock expressed abhorrence at the violent act and reiterated its commitment to promoting civility and unity.

The company, a significant investor in gun manufacturers such as Sturm Ruger and Smith & Wesson, emphasized its stance against political violence.

BlackRock has cooperated fully with authorities, providing all relevant video footage from the advertisement.

The shooting has sparked widespread reactions and calls for increased security measures at political events. This incident adds to the ongoing debate about gun control and political violence in America.

In a related development, BlackRock announced record assets under management, totaling $10.6 trillion in their latest quarterly earnings report, underscoring the firm’s substantial influence in the financial sector.

The Biden/Harris campaign has issued a scathing statement slamming former President Donald Trump’s running mate, J.D. Vance.

Biden-Harris 2024 Chair Jen O’Malley Dillon released the statement soon after Trump announced his choice.

The statement began, “Donald Trump picked J.D. Vance as his running mate because Vance will do what Mike Pence wouldn’t on January 6: bend over backwards to enable Trump and his extreme MAGA agenda, even if it means breaking the law and no matter the harm to the American people.”

“As Trump’s running mate, Vance will make it his mission to enact Trump’s Project 2025 agenda at the expense of American families,” the campaign continued. “This is someone who supports banning abortion nationwide while criticizing exceptions for rape and incest survivors; railed against the Affordable Care Act , including its protections for millions with preexisting conditions; and has admitted he wouldn’t have certified the free and fair election in 2020.”

O’Malley Dillon continued, “Billionaires and corporations are literally rooting for J.D. Vance: they know he and Trump will cut their taxes and send prices skyrocketing for everyone else.”

The campaign vowed to spend the next three months contrasting the two campaigns.

“Over the next three and a half months, we will spend every single day making the case between the two starkly contrasting visions Americans will choose between at the ballot box this November: the Biden-Harris ticket who’s focused on uniting the country, creating opportunity for everyone, and lowering costs; or Trump-Vance – whose harmful agenda will take away Americans’ rights, hurt the middle class, and make life more expensive – all while benefiting the ultra-rich and greedy corporations.”

The campaign also pointed out that Vance is pro-life without exceptions, previously saying of abortion in the case of rape or incest that “two wrongs don’t make a right” and calling those circumstances “inconvenient.”

Additionally, they complained that Vance has said he would not have certified the election and endorsed a January 6 defendant’s congressional bid.

The final match of the Copa America has devolved into chaos that even had it postponed for over an hour, as security and police struggled to contain thousands of unruly fans who invaded the Hard Rock stadium in Miami.

In a country where illegals are flocking through the border by the millions, perhaps fans without a ticket invading a game venue is to be expected.

The Copa America is a football (soccer, if you will) tournament that gathers the best national teams in the American Continent, and this edition held in the US was not without its security incidents.

Watch: gates at Hard Rock Stadium are breached and scores of ‘fans’ begin streaming in.

It was the Copa America’s last but greatest security embarrassment, and it took place before Argentina and Colombia final match even started.

The game ended up being pushed back from 8:00 p.m. to 9:15 p.m. after unruly ‘fans’ rushed the Hard Rock Stadium gates, climbed over fences, and through vents, to ‘forcibly enter without tickets’ on Sunday night.

New York Post reported:

“In another statement later in the night, according to USA Today, a spokesperson for the venue said that — eventually, and for a brief stretch — gates were opened ‘to all fans in order to prevent stampedes and serious injury at the perimeter. There was serious concern of fans being crushed in an attempt to enter’.

‘Law enforcement and security personnel were immediately deployed throughout the stadium and surrounding area to keep fans as safe as possible in light of this unprecedented situation’, the statement continued. ‘We urge fans to listen to law enforcement and security personnel throughout the night for the safety of all in attendance’.”

Watch: Police coming in and checking tickets, kicking people out.

People without tickets gained access to the grounds, and Hard Rock Stadium security struggled to allow the fans who actually bought tickets into the venue.

This created a dangerous situation.

The invaders could be seen pushing toward one of the stadium’s entrances, as police tried to halt people from going through.

Other wild videos showcased fans climbing into vents and over the ticket booths, along with other fences.

“Fans wearing soccer jerseys could be seen sprinting by cameras, and at one point, one shirtless fan could be seen being grabbed by a uniformed officer. Another video showed a more violent scene where police officers could be seen scuffling with fans as they tried to keep people from getting through one of the gates.”

A Miami-Dade police spokesperson told the press that there were multiple arrests for battery on a police officer as well as for trespassing.

“’These incidents have been a result of the unruly behavior of fans trying to access the stadium’, a statement from police read. ‘We are asking everyone to be patient and abide by the rules set by our officers and Hard Rock Stadium personnel. We are actively working with Hard Rock Stadium to ensure a safe environment for all those attending. Unruly behavior will get you ejected and/or arrested. We have a ZERO Tolerance behavior against unruly conduct from everyone attending’.”

Watch: Chaos at the gate.

“Eventually, though, the match began, and videos surfaced of the stands and aisles appearing packed, with police officers sifting through the crowd to check tickets and remove spectators who didn’t have one.”

This chaotic scene came just days after Copa America suffered a grave lapse in security that led to family members of the Uruguayan national team being threatened by Colombian fans.

This happened at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte and Uruguayan players could be seen rushing into the stands to defend their loved ones.
