ANOTHER ONE GONE: Liberal Washington Post ‘Fact Checker’ Glenn Kessler Leaving Paper After Accepting Buyout

Posted on by patriotsheart

Screencap from YouTube video.

Another far left journalist is leaving the Washington Post, this time their ‘fact checker’ Glenn Kessler.

The reason so many liberal journalists are leaving the WaPo is because Jeff Bezos, the paper’s current owner, wants the paper to begin focusing on issues of liberty rather than just being a mouthpiece for the Democrat party. He offered a buyout to any staffers who felt they couldn’t get in line.

The people who are leaving are basically admitting that they don’t want to work in an environment that doesn’t allow them to be Democrat activists.

FOX News reports:

Longtime Washington Post fact checker takes buyout, says paper has yet to find replacement before exit

The man behind The Washington Post’s “Pinocchios” is leaving the paper without anyone to fill his shoes.

Glenn Kessler, the editor of The Fact Checker, announced Monday he has taken a buyout, ending his lengthy career at the Post.

“After more than 27 years at The Washington Post, including almost 15 as The Fact Checker, I will be leaving on July 31, having taken a buyout,” Kessler wrote on his Facebook page. “Much as I would have liked to keep scrutinizing politicians in Washington, especially in this era, the financial considerations were impossible to dismiss.”

Kessler said he wrote or edited more than 3,000 fact checks as editor and chief writer of The Fact Checker.

“When I started in 2011, there were only a handful of fact-checking organizations around the world, and I have been thrilled to watch the movement expand across the globe. So many of these brave and diligent fact checkers have become good friends,” Kessler wrote.

During Trump’s first term, Glenn Kessler kept a database to track Trump’s supposed untruths. After the 2020 election, he decided the database was no longer needed. That should tell you everything you need to know about him.

FOX News reported in 2021:

Washington Post ripped for ending Biden fact-checking database for rest of his term

Washington Post fact-checker Glenn Kessler drew fierce criticism Monday after saying he did not plan to maintain a “database” for President Biden’s falsehoods beyond his first 100 days in office.

“I have learned my lesson,” Kessler tweeted. “‘Learned my lesson’ means who knows what the next four years will bring.”

The Post famously maintained a database of former President Donald Trump’s falsehoods during his entire term in office. Kessler called it a “wild ride.”…

In a writeup in the soon-to-be-mothballed database, the Post wrote the “Joe Biden era has offered a return to a more typical pattern when it comes to a commander in chief and his relationship with the facts — one that features frequent spin and obfuscation or exaggeration, with the occasional canard.”

That says it all. In Kessler’s world, Trump must be ‘fact checked’ endlessly. Democrats like Joe Biden got the benefit of the doubt.

Kessler was one of the many journalists who defended Biden by pushing the ‘cheap fake’ narrative.

Kessler will not be missed. He’ll probably end up on Substack like the rest of his biased former WaPo colleagues.

Posted on by patriotsheart

New York City officials are scheduled to hold a press conference at approximately 10 pm ET to provide updates on the deadly shooting in Midtown, Manhattan, which left five, including an off-duty cop, dead.

The shooter casually strolled into the 44-story skyscraper at 345 Park Avenue, wearing a bulletproof vest and armed with a semiautomatic rifle, and opened fire on the police officer before making his way up to the 33rd floor, where he was found dead by suicide.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams provided an update from the scene shortly after 8 pm ET.

WATCH:

I’m here at the scene of 51st and Park Avenue. Unfortunately, we had a shooting here with multiple injuries. The perpetrator, the known perpetrator, is neutralized at this time. Those who are in the building, we’re asking you to remain inside as police officers are doing a floor-by-floor search. We believe, again, the perpetrator is neutralized at this time. We’ll be going over to the hospital to speak with the family and loved ones involved in this incident. We did a shooting with multiple injuries at this time, but the perpetrator is neutralized.

The Gateway Pundit reported that the shooter was later identified as 27-year-old Shane Tamura from Las Vegas.

Fake News CNN Refers to Manhattan Mass Shooter as ‘Possibly White’ (VIDEO)

Posted on by patriotsheart

This is CNN.

Fake News CNN told their audience on Monday evening that the Manhattan mass shooter who killed at least five people is ‘possibly white.’

The Manhattan mass shooter was identified as 27-year-old Shane Tamura from Las Vegas.

At least five people are dead, including a police officer, after Shane Tamura opened fire in a building in Midtown.

Tamura reportedly wore a bulletproof vest as he walked into a 44-story building in Midtown Manhattan on 51st and Park Avenue and opened fire on multiple people before turning the gun on himself .

The New York Post reports, “A crazed gunman wearing a bulletproof vest opened fire inside a swanky Midtown skyscraper that houses Blackstone and NFL headquarters Monday, injuring three people, including a cop — before turning the gun on himself, sources said.”

CNN actually ran with the ‘white man’ narrative even though the shooter is clearly not white.

Tamura is deceased.

CNN’s Erin Burnett described Shane Tamura as ‘possibly white’ even though law enforcement released a photo of the suspect.

“You talk about a 44-story building…there were a few things that stood out there, among them, they do know what he looks like, sunglasses, mustache, possibly white,” CNN’s Erin Burnett said.

Victor Reacts: Another Deportation HOAX Uncovered (VIDEO)

Posted on by patriotsheart

Yet another example of the boy who cried wolf has been exposed.

The Gateway Pundit reported,

A hit job by a disgruntled family on President Trump’s immigration policies was destroyed when, after a couple of twists, the stunning truth emerged.

Earlier this month, a report emerged that an 82-year-old Chilean legal immigrant and grandfather in poor health named Luis Leon, supposedly an Allentown, Pennsylvania resident, was arrested by ICE while Leon was trying to replace his green card. He first gained asylum in 1987.

Both Leon and his wife, who was also arrested, were then taken to a detention facility without being given a reason. While Leon’s wife was released roughly 10 hours later, Leon remained in custody.

Family members of Leon told The Morning Call that Leon died in custody before saying he was taken to a hospital in Guatemala.

Then Chilean journalist José María del Pino dropped the biggest twist of all. He shared a death certificate that showed that a person with the same name, birth date, and Chile’s unique national ID number (RUT) as Leon died in Chile in 2019.

How many more outright hoaxes will the fake news media share?

The American people voted to take our country back from the invading hoards that Joe Biden brought across our border. Fake sob stories will not convince us to throw out our national sovereignty.

A witness on the first floor said that “it sounded like a barrage of shots …Like an automatic weapon. Like a high-capacity weapon.”

JUST IN: Bondi Files Formal Complaint Against Judge Boasberg For Shocking Public Comments Admitting Bias Against Trump Administration

Posted on by patriotsheart

US Attorney General Pam Bondi on Monday announced the Justice Department filed a misconduct complaint against Judge James Boasberg for making ‘improper public comments’ and admitting bias against the Trump Administration.

As reported earlier this month, DC Chief Judge James Boasberg and other DC Judges admitted bias against the Trump Administration during a March 2025 judicial conference with Chief Justice Roberts, according to a memo obtained by The Federalist.

For the last several months DC Circuit Court Judges have engaged in a judicial coup against President Trump.

Far-left DC judges James Boasberg, Beryl Howell, Chutkan, Berman Jackson and others have ruled against President Trump in every case related to deportations and firings in the Executive Branch.

Boasberg, an Obama appointee, is one of the worst offenders. Judge Boasberg not only demanded planes deporting illegals turn around midair, he said he found probable cause to hold Trump Admin officials in criminal contempt for defying his court order.

According to The Federalist, Boasberg discussed pending lawsuits and actually named a defendant during the judicial conference.

“Federal judge James Boasberg advised Chief Justice John Roberts and some two dozen other judges that his D.C. colleagues were “concern[ed] that the Administration would disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a constitutional crisis,” according to a memorandum obtained exclusively by The Federalist. That Judge Boasberg and his fellow D.C. District Court judges would discuss how a named Defendant in numerous pending lawsuits might respond to an adverse ruling is shocking. Equally outrageous is those judges’ clear disregard for the presumption of regularity — a presumption that requires a court to presume public officials properly discharged their official duties, The Federalist reported.

“In a memorandum obtained exclusively by The Federalist, a member of the Judicial Conference summarized the March meeting, including a “working breakfast” at which Justice Roberts spoke. According to the memorandum, “District of the District of Columbia Chief Judge James Boasberg next raised his colleagues’ concerns that the Administration would disregard rulings of federal courts leading to a constitutional crisis.”” The Federalist reported.

““Chief Justice Roberts expressed hope that would not happen and in turn no constitutional crisis would materialize,” according to the memorandum. The summary of the working breakfast added that Chief Justice Roberts noted that “his interactions with the President have been civil and respectful, such as the President thanking him at the state of the union address for administering the oath.”” the outlet added.

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche weighed in on the memo earlier this month.

“A newly revealed memo confirms that at least some federal judges were predisposed against the Trump administration. This is a serious breach of the judicial oath and a threat to the rule of law. Every litigant, regardless of politics, is entitled to a fair forum,” Todd Blanche said.

White Woman Viciously Assaulted By Mob in Cincinnati Breaks Her Silence to Vivek Ramaswamy And Reveals an Infuriating Detail Following the Attack

Posted on by patriotsheart

Vivek Ramaswamy appears on Sunday Morning Futures to discuss DOGE’s plans to shrink the government (Credit: Fox Business).

The woman seen in the video getting brutally assaulted by by an angry mob in Cincinnati has broken her silence and revealed something that reflects the lack of empathy from so many despite the heinousness of the attack.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, a group of black individuals smacked around a bald white guy at the intersection of West Fourth Street and Elm Street in downtown Cincy and beat him so bad he could not get up.

Then, a white woman got slugged by one of the cowards. Her head slammed down onto the concrete, and she lost consciousness. Blood was seen coming out of her mouth.

Five people have been arrested, but their names have not been released nor their charges.

Ramaswamy announced on X Monday afternoon that he had spoken to the female victim, a single mother whose first name is Holly (he did not give out her last name). She was in the city for a birthday party.

“I spoke to Holly earlier today (the woman tragically assaulted in Cincinnati this weekend). She’s a single working mom who went to a friend’s birthday party,” Ramaswamy wrote. “It’s unconscionable that there were no police present in that area of Cincinnati on a Friday night, or even an ambulance to take her to the hospital.”

“Hard-working Americans shouldn’t have to worry for their safety when they have a good time in our cities,” he added.

Holly then revealed an infuriating detail to Ramaswamy: Before he connected with her, Not ONE Ohio state politician, Democrat or Republican, bothered to try to contact her.

In fact, only one police detective had talked to her at all. How inconsiderate and self-serving.

Holly said not a single local or state official had yet reached out as of earlier this afternoon, other than one police detective. Leftists like to lecture about ‘systemic injustice’ while thugs turn our turn cities into war zones. I’m done with their excuses.

Ramaswamy closed by vowing that he would take a zero-tolerance approach to these crimes and noted that Holly appreciates the prayers and support.

“As governor, I’ll make sure they’re behind bars, not running wild. Our cops will have the green light to restore order—no apologies,” he said. “Holly appreciates the kind words and prayers from patriots across the country, and hopes that the publicity around her story ensures that local & state leaders clean up our failing cities.

“We hope to visit Holly soon as she recovers.”

Islamist Terror Strikes Congo Church: Dozens of Catholics Slain in Brutal Nighttime Assault

Posted on by patriotsheart

In the early hours of July 27, 2025, militants from the Allied Democratic Forces (ADF), an ISIS-affiliated rebel group, stormed a Catholic church in Komanda, Democratic Republic of Congo, during a nighttime prayer vigil.

Armed with guns and machetes, they slaughtered at least 40 worshippers at the Parish of Blessed Anuarite, including women, men, and nine children, while abducting others into the surrounding bush.

This savage attack, which also involved burning homes and looting shops, underscores the relentless threat to Christian communities in the region.

The church was celebrating its 25th anniversary when the raiders struck around 1 a.m., turning a sacred gathering into a scene of horror.

Victims’ bodies were later prepared for burial in a mass grave on church grounds, with some charred remains discovered in nearby torched buildings.

Despite prior requests for security from local authorities in June, no protection was provided, allowing the attackers to escape before the Congolese army or UN forces arrived.

The ADF, originating in Uganda in the 1990s and now operating as part of ISIS’s Central African Province, has escalated its campaign of terror in eastern Congo.

In recent weeks, the group has been linked to over 80 civilian deaths, shifting from hit-and-run raids to seizing territory, imposing “taxes,” and forcing locals to study the Quran.

This latest massacre in Ituri province highlights how such extremists exploit mineral-rich areas, preying on defenseless civilians amid a patchwork of over 100 armed factions.

Congolese military officials vowed to pursue the ADF to their last stronghold, blaming the assault on revenge for joint operations with Uganda.

Residents expressed frustration over the lack of timely intervention, despite a heavy security presence nearby, raising doubts about the effectiveness of ongoing efforts.

The UN peacekeeping mission condemned the violence as a violation of human rights, noting a recent resurgence that has displaced millions in Ituri and North Kivu.

In a telegram sent by Cardinal Secretary of State Pietro Parolin to Fulgence Muteba Mugalu, President of the Congo Episcopal Conference, Pope Leo XIV expressed that he “learned with dismay and deep sorrow” about the violent attack on the Parish of Blessed Anuarite in Komanda.

In his message, Pope Leo XIV prayed, “May the blood of these martyrs become a seed of peace, reconciliation, fraternity, and love for the people of the Congo.”

International voices, including France and Italy, where missionaries serve in the church, denounced the raid, stressing the need to safeguard places of worship and religious freedom.

This tragedy in Komanda serves as a stark reminder of the dangers facing Christians in conflict zones, where radical ideologies fuel bloodshed against the innocent. As survivors flee and searches for the missing continue, the incident fuels calls for robust international support to protect Christian populations.

CNN’s Harry Enten Admits Americans Don’t Trust Democrats on Foreign Policy (VIDEO)

Posted on by patriotsheart

CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten has admitted that Americans trust Republicans more on foreign policy.

During Monday’s edition of News Central, Enten broke down the figures that show how Democrats simply “cannot hack it” in the minds of American voters.

He explained:

This one was a surprising one to me, given everything that’s going on in Russia, what happened in Iran, what happened in Gaza. But the bottom line is Democrats, in the American voters’ minds, cannot hack it.

What are we talking about? Party trust more on foreign policy, well, the GOP holds an average six point lead in the month of July. Look at this Fox News came out last week, plus three points for Republicans on foreign policy over the Democrats.

Do you think that number is not high enough for you? How about The Wall Street Journal? GOP plus eight points when they match congressional Democrats up against congressional Republicans.

The bottom line is this—despite everything that’s going on in the world right now, Republicans are more trusted than Democrats when it comes to foreign policy and the world at large.

Trust more in foreign policy, you go back to 2024. Trump had a six point advantage over Kamala Harris. Again, look at the average right now. it hasn’t moved despite everything that’s going on in the world. You see Republicans plus six points here.

Watch the clip below:

The Republican foreign policy is platform is largely centered around the Trump administration’s foreign policy.

Since taking office in January, Trump has unsuccessfully attempted to bring an end to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, imposed baseline tariffs on the entire world, launched missile strikes on Iranian nuclear facilities and taken a tougher stance against China and other communist regimes.

TRUMP SHOWS STARMER THE WAY: UK Should Cut Taxes, Crack Down on Immigration, Scrap Subsidies for ‘Renewables’ and Drill for Oil – Otherwise Farage Will Win Next Election (VIDEOS)

Posted on by patriotsheart

US President Donald J. Trump between Keir and Victoria Starmer in Turnberry – White House/Wiki Commons.

Trump gives unpopular Starmer some pointers in front of the world’s media.

It’s kind of odd that when US President Donald J. Trump today (28) welcomed UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer to Trump Turnberry, his luxury golf resort in southwestern Scotland, it was the Premier who seemed the visitor in his own Kingdom.

The two leaders discussed the recently signed US-UK trade deal and celebrated a new US-EU agreement.

A lot of geopolitical crises around the world were also themes of discussion: the Gaza Conflict, the Ukraine War…

But one striking aspect of the meeting was that Trump publicly enumerated the changes in policy that very unpopular PM Starmer needs to implement, should he want to defeat the conservative leader of the polls, Trump’s friend Nigel Farage from Reform UK.

The incredible shrinking Premier: Starmer sees his poll numbers in constant decline, and some Labour MPs openly talk about replacing him.

Daily Mail reported:

“Keir Starmer should cut taxes, come down hard on ‘ruinous’ immigration and remove subsidies for renewable energy, Donald Trump said today as the two leaders met in Scotland.

In a wide-ranging and chaotic press conference the president gave his ‘friend’ the Prime Minister tips about how to prevent another ‘friend’, Nigel Farage, from winning power.

[…] While Sir Keir sat beside him with an impassive look on his face, he also attacked subsidies for wind power and – gently – suggested he should back fresh drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea instead.”

Take a look at the Trump masterclass in front of a silent Starmer in three videos.

Watch (1) : ‘If you lower taxes, you get growth.’

Watch: Trump on UK’s immigration policies.
