The Trump administration is once again spearheading efforts to eliminate cruel, costly, and unnecessary animal testing across federal agencies, while prioritizing the retirement of lab animals to sanctuaries and homes.
This push builds on years of advocacy by the taxpayer watchdog group White Coat Waste Project (WCW), which has been instrumental in exposing and halting wasteful government experiments that harm animals and burden taxpayers.
In a significant victory, the Trump CDC has announced it will end all primate testing, following WCW investigations that prompted HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. to commit to phasing out such experiments and collaborate with WCW.
As Gateway Pundit previously reported, sources at WCW indicate that HHS is exploring options to retire the surviving monkeys from CDC facilities to sanctuaries, a cause WCW has championed since 2018.
Effective October 1, 2025, Trump’s NIH has shifted policies to prioritize human-based research, no longer soliciting new funding opportunities focused exclusively on animal models, which indirectly supports retirement efforts by reducing animal use. This aligns with broader initiatives to allow grant funds for lab animal retirement, which was previously prohibited.
Earlier this year, the EPA revived the first Trump administration’s plan to phase out animal testing by 2035, including a 30% reduction by 2025 – a goal the Trump team has reportedly now met or exceeded, according to Breitbart.
The agency has introduced a program enabling EPA staff to adopt rats and fish from government labs and has released several rabbits into private homes.
These actions reverse the Biden administration’s cancellation of the 2019 plan by former Trump EPA Administrator Andrew Wheeler.
WCW and conservative journalist Laura Loomer have been engaging lawmakers and officials to transform Fauci’s infamous “Monkey Island” in South Carolina into a sanctuary, allowing the 3,700 primates there to live undisturbed rather than being shipped to labs for experimentation, according to a report from The New Yorker.
This week, WCW renewed its push for the U.S. Navy to terminate its 60-year-old, $40 million annual “Marine Mammal Program,” which involves experimenting on and training dolphins and sea lions for tasks like detecting objects in harbors.
WCW investigations revealed some animals were captured from the wild or sourced from SeaWorld.
For over a decade, the Navy has sought to replace the program with drones and AI, but Congress previously mandated its continuation. With that prohibition lifted, WCW urges retirement of the animals.
WCW president and founder Anthony Bellotti, a former Republican political strategist who started WCW after working in a taxpayer-funded animal lab, told Gateway, “Taxpayers bought these animals, and we want Uncle Sam to give them back. Dogs, cats, primates, and other animals abused in wasteful government experiments deserve a second chance and we’re grateful to President Trump and his team for continuing to work with WCW and prioritize efforts to shut down labs and save the survivors.”
These advancements echo the groundbreaking collaborations of the first Trump administration with WCW.
A WCW probe forced the FDA to end nicotine addiction experiments on baby squirrel monkeys and retire survivors to a sanctuary – a federal first.
In 2019, Trump’s USDA shuttered its largest cat laboratory after WCW exposed a $22 million boondoggle involving purchasing dog and cat meat from Chinese wet markets, shipping it back, and force-feeding it to kittens in a Maryland lab – dubbed the “Kitten Slaughterhouse,” where over 5,000 animals perished.
Despite the historic progress made under the first Trump admin, PETA said in a now-deleted 2021 social media post that, “Unfortunately, Trump did nothing to stop animal experimentation.”
More recently, as Gateway reported, PETA is publicly bashing WCW for its criticism of NIH official Nicole Kleinstreuer, a Democrat donor and Dr. Anthony Fauci fangirl, saying, “Have they lost their f-cking minds?” and saying, “White Coat Waste has young-male-testosterone energy.”
As Trump restores America First policies, these reforms prove that cutting government waste and ending animal cruelty go hand in hand – delivering wins for taxpayers, animals, and common sense alike, while leaving liberal critics like PETA in the dust.
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz on Sunday responded to revelations that more than $1 billion in federal COVID funds have been stolen by Somali Immigrants in Minnesota, dodging responsibility, touting his state’s generosity, and attempting to deflect blame from Somali aliens defrauding taxpayers.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, 70 members of the Somali community in Minnesota were involved in stealing $250 million in COVID funds that were intended to feed children. Millions of dollars were stolen from American taxpayers and sent overseas to Somalia, and 80% of the money has not been recovered.
Seven defendants were tried in connection with the scheme on charges related to stealing more than $40 million in taxpayer funds, and five were found guilty. However, the FBI is still investigating an attempt by a Somali woman to bribe one of the jurors with $120,000 in cash.
But the fraud goes deeper, with multiple schemes like this over the last five years.
Per the New York Times, “Federal prosecutors say that 59 people have been convicted in those schemes so far, and that more than $1 billion in taxpayers’ money has been stolen in three plots they are investigating.”
Surprisingly, far-left NBC host Kristen Welker actually pressed him with a tough question, asking whether he takes responsibility for not stopping the fraud, which amounts to “more than Minnesota spends each year to run its Department of Corrections.”
And Walz gave a bizarre answer, championing his policies that “attract criminals.”
“We’re doing everything we can, but to demonize an entire community on the actions of a few, it’s lazy!” he added.
WATCH:
Welker: Dozens of people of East African descent have been charged, convicted and sentenced for stealing more than a billion dollars in taxpayer money from government programs during COVID. As you know, Governor that is more than Minnesota spends each year to run its Department of Corrections. So, I want to give you a chance to respond to this. Do you take responsibility for failing to stop this fraud in your state?
Walz: Well, certainly, I take responsibility for putting people in jail. Governors don’t get to just talk theoretically. We have to solve problems. And I will note, it’s not just Somalis. Minnesota is a generous state, Minnesota is a prosperous state, a well run state. We’re AAA bond rated.
But that attracts criminals. Those people are going to jail. We’re doing everything we can, but to demonize an entire community on the actions of a few, it’s lazy!
Before giving this seriously retarded take, Walz responded to Trump recently calling him “the seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota,” telling Kristen Welker that he wears it as a “badge of honor.”
President Trump posted a video of himself sinking a chip shot and walking away like a boss.
This weekend, President Trump golfed with LIV Golf star Brooks Koepka, NHL legend Wayne Gretzky and Fox News host Bret Baier.
Trump made a chip shot and walked away smiling.
“Winning is always nice!” President Trump said in a Truth Social post.
WATCH:
Last week, President Trump took a swipe at Joe Biden after he was asked about a Biden-Trump golf match.
Joe Biden is a horrible golfer. Video of Biden playing golf shocked viewers after the golf ball bounced off a rock and went the opposite direction.
A petty officer on a call during an interview with President Trump asked about a Biden golf match.
“What is your true golf handicap, not according to Fake News, and are you and President Biden going to play that golf match?” a petty officer asked President Trump.
“I’d love to. I’ve invited him, but he doesn’t want to show up. I know a lot about golf. I’ve won 38 club championships,” Trump boasted.
“You have a lot of people talk, but they can’t play like Biden. Biden can’t hit a ball 30 yards. I’m telling you, I looked at his swing. He cannot hit a ball 30 yards,” Trump said.
“He said he was a six handicapper. That was the only thing that made me angry. During the debate with him, he said he was a 6. I said, ‘You’re not a 6.’ And he said, ‘Well, I’m an 8.’ I said, ‘That was quick. I picked up two.’ But he’s not 100. He’s not 100,” Trump said.
“But it’s a great game, and I hope you guys get to play a little bit of it,” Trump added.
Democrat Congressman Raja Krishnamoorthi, who was born in New Delhi, India, has reintroduced legislation to double the annual cap on H-1B visas from 65,000 to 130,000.
The bill, known as the High-Skilled Immigration Reform for Employment (HIRE) Act, or H.R. 6305, was introduced on Tuesday.
Krishnamoorthi, representing Illinois’ 8th District, argues the measure will boost U.S. competitiveness by lowering “workforce shortages” in tech and other fields.
“To build the jobs and industries of tomorrow, America must stay at the forefront of innovation by strengthening our own workforce while continuing to welcome top talent from around the globe,” the congressman said in a statement about his bill.
Krishnamoorthi continued, “By growing our domestic talent pipeline and ensuring employers can recruit the skilled workers they need, we can create good-paying jobs and secure America’s leadership in the technologies of the future.”
However, critics slam the proposal as a giveaway to foreign labor at the expense of American workers, especially amid rising unemployment in the tech sector.
Importing foreign workers has long been criticized for displacing U.S. citizens from their jobs and driving down wages. There are countless stories of Americans having to train their cheaper, foreign replacements.
Indians have long dominated the H-1B program, receiving over 72% of all visas issued in fiscal year 2023 (October 2022 to September 2023).
Social media erupted with backlash, with users accusing Krishnamoorthi of prioritizing his homeland over America.
One post called him an “Indian First, Forever Extremist,” highlighting his past efforts to ease green card limits and expand visa categories.
He is an Indian First, Forever Extremist.
Always has been.
in 2018, @RajaForIL proposed Congress:
• eliminate per-country limits for green cards
• enables F-1 holders to seek permanent resident status while a student OR during F-1 OPT
• weakens the (artificial) H-1B cap by… pic.twitter.com/twmeItVp6e
This isn’t Krishnamoorthi’s first push for visa expansion. He introduced similar legislation in 2023.
The bill has been referred to the House Committees on Education and the Workforce, and the Judiciary, but it faces an uphill battle in a Republican-controlled Congress focused on America First policies.
President Donald Trump on Saturday announced via Truth Social that Venezuelan airspace is “closed in its entirety,” marking a further escalation in tensions between Washington and Caracas.
Venezuela’s Foreign Minister Yván Gil Pinto denounced the move, calling Trump’s statement “a hostile, unilateral, and arbitrary act, incompatible with the most fundamental principles of international law.”
The announcement comes amid pressure from a hawkish faction within the Trump administration, led by Secretary of State Marco Rubio, urging more aggressive steps ostensibly aimed at toppling the government of President Nicolás Maduro. Those efforts have included the authorization of covert operations, according to U.S. officials, even as parallel back-channel diplomatic talks between Washington and Caracas have continued.
As the Trump administration looks to close Venezuela’s airspace, the U.S. military wages an extrajudicial assassination campaign against fishermen in the Caribbean suspected of trafficking drugs, with more than 80 reported killed in over 20 separate attacks so far. The Washington Post reported last week that Secretary of War Pete Hegseth issued a direct order to “kill everybody” aboard a suspected narco-boat.
Attorney General Pam Bondi on Sunday gave an update on West Virginia National Guardsman Andrew Wolfe, the 24-year-old Air Force Staff Sergeant who was shot and critically injured by a Biden refugee in Washington, DC, on Wednesday.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, two National Guard members were shot near the White House on Wednesday, the day before Thanksgiving, in an ambush attack by an Afghan national. Both were rushed to the hospital, but 20-year-old Army Specialist Sarah Beckstrom tragically succumbed to her injuries on Thanksgiving Day.
Wolfe remains in critical condition, reportedly in intensive care at a trauma center in Washington, DC.
Attorney General Bondi told Fox’s Shannon Bream this morning in an interview that Wolfe’s family spent Thanksgiving “at his bedside” and urged the country to pray for the “remarkable young man,” who joined the National Guard at 18 years old in 2019.
“He is a remarkable young man, he joined the Guard in 2019, his dad’s a career police officer. He fought to keep our country safe, and now we have to pray, to fight to get him back to 100%, and do everything we can to support his family,” Bondi said.
WATCH:
Bondi: I’ve been on the phone with Melody and Jason; those are Andy Wolfe’s parents. These are wonderful people. They were at his bedside last night; they are at his bedside right now. They spent Thanksgiving at Andy’s bedside. And Shannon, I just have to say this, we are a praying country, and we all have to pray for Andy’s full recovery right now. He is a remarkable young man, he joined the Guard in 2019, his dad’s a career police officer. He fought to keep our country safe, and now we have to pray, to fight to get him back to 100%, and do everything we can to support his family.
I’m going to see his parents tonight, wonderful people. And you know, we lost Sarah. We lost Sarah to a terrorist attack in our country. That should not be happening in the United States of America. That’s why Donald Trump closed our borders. That’s why Donald Trump has cut off all of these people from coming into our country. We are going to protect Americans.
In another segment from the interview, Bondi said that 29-year-old Afghan national Rahmanullah Lakanwal, who entered the country under Biden’s Operation Allies Welcome program in 2021, had “minimal to little vetting.”
Despite the Biden Administration’s assurances that these aliens underwent a “thorough screening and background check process,” Bondi told Bream that they conducted “very little” screening with no biometrics or social media review.
WATCH:
Bondi: He had been here through Operation Allies Welcome program— minimal to little vetting! I was on the phone last night with Secretary Kristi Noem at length. They did not do biometrics, they did not do social media, they did very little, if minimal, vetting on all of these people. And now, to take a step back, we have a 1.5 million backlog of people that have come into our country.
And as you said, these people are being radicalized. We know that this shooter who shot our National Guardsmen in DC, the day before Thanksgiving, he was radicalized. You’re going to hear a lot more about that. And these people should not have been in our country, should have never been in our country, under Joe Biden.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem also discussed the unvetted Afghan aliens this morning in an interview on NBC’s Meet the Press, where she revealed that “we could have up to 100,000 people that came in from Afghanistan that may be here to do us harm” because of Biden’s reckless immigration policies.
“[Biden] was allowing our country to be infiltrated with people that we didn’t know who they were,” Noem said, adding that the Trump administration is going to “immediately” review all asylum claims and deport these dangerous illegals.
Former CNN White House correspondent Jim Acosta urged mainstream media outlets to band together in “collective action” against President Donald Trump’s insults towards journalists.
Acosta made the call to action on the network formerly known as MSNBC, now known as “MS NOW,” on Saturday morning.
The disgraced pundit’s comments came in response to an incident earlier this month where Trump told Bloomberg reporter Catherine Lucey to be “quiet, piggy” during a press event, after she pressed him on questions related to Jeffrey Epstein’s files.
Acosta described the remark as “disgusting” and argued that if a boss spoke to a female employee that way in any other workplace, they would be fired. The reporter, of course, does not work for the president.
“Other folks in the press in the room should speak up in that moment and say, ‘Mr. President, that is not appropriate,’” Acosta said. “And, you know, double down on the questions that were asked. ‘Why didn’t you answer that question? Why are you resorting to personal attacks? Why can’t you take the heat? What’s going on here?’”
“I think the only solution to all of this is collective action,” he added.
Acosta suggested that major newspapers and networks send a formal letter to White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt, warning that if Trump doesn’t stop mocking journalists, they would boycott Oval Office press events and travel on Air Force One, leaving coverage to outlets like Fox News until he “cleans up [his] act.”
Jim Acosta: Leftwing media should threaten to not show up to Trump’s press avails anymore “until you clean up your act.”
“You can have Fox and all these other sycophantic outlets covering you, but we’re just not going to do it. We’re going to take a break for a while until you clean up your act,” Acosta suggested outlets tell the White House.
Acosta has a long history of openly hating and clashing with President Trump.
One of the most notorious incidents occurred in November 2018, during a post-midterm election press conference. Acosta pressed Trump on his characterization of a migrant caravan from Latin America as an “invasion,” leading to a heated exchange.
Trump repeatedly told Acosta to sit down and relinquish the microphone, calling him a “rude, terrible person” and accusing him of treating Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders poorly.
The White House later suspended Acosta’s press credentials, citing his alleged physical contact with an intern trying to take the mic.
Trump, at the time, told Acosta, “CNN should be ashamed of itself having you working for them.”
Following Acosta’s January announcement that he was leaving CNN, Trump took to Truth Social to mock him, calling him a “major loser who will fail no matter where he ends up.”

While China has made remarkable strides toward developing the “three superiorities,” information, air, and maritime dominance, required for military parity with the United States, several critical capabilities remain conspicuously absent from the People’s Liberation Army.
These gaps include limited global range, lagging nuclear capabilities, weak joint-operations capacity, the absence of reliable allies, no warfighting experience, poor interservice integration, and the pressure of an accelerating political timeline.
Taken together, these gaps represent fundamental limitations that could determine the outcome of any major conflict in the Indo-Pacific and beyond.
China’s most glaring deficiency lies in its inability to project sustained military power beyond its immediate periphery. Although China’s reach is growing and future U.S. military dominance will likely be challenged at greater distances from China’s coast, the PLA remains fundamentally constrained by geography and logistics.
Unlike the United States, which maintains a global network of bases, allies, and forward-deployed forces, China operates from a single continental base with limited overseas infrastructure. The PLA’s lone overseas base in Djibouti, while symbolically important, cannot support major combat operations far from Chinese shores. This forces China to rely on a largely untested logistics chain that becomes increasingly vulnerable as the distance from the mainland increases.
While China can credibly threaten Taiwan, deny access within the First Island Chain, and project limited power to the Second Island Chain, it cannot sustain large-scale military operations in the Indian Ocean, Pacific beyond Guam, or any other theater requiring extended supply lines.
The second issue is nuclear weapons. China’s nuclear modernization, although rapid, remains incomplete. The Pentagon estimates that China has only about 600 nuclear warheads today and is expected to have more than 1,000 operational warheads by 2030, most of them deployed on systems capable of striking the American homeland and maintained at higher readiness levels. However, this represents only the beginning of nuclear parity, not its achievement.
The United States currently maintains approximately 5,177 nuclear warheads, with 1,700 deployed strategic warheads and a sophisticated triad of delivery systems tested over decades.
Additionally, China’s nuclear command structure remains centralized and potentially vulnerable to decapitation strikes. Unlike the U.S. system, which is designed for distributed decision-making during conflict, China’s nuclear forces may not function effectively if senior leadership is eliminated. China’s expanding nuclear arsenal also includes many untested systems. The reliability of Chinese missiles, warheads, and command systems under actual combat conditions remains unknown, whereas U.S. systems have undergone extensive testing and operational deployment.
While China is developing road-mobile ICBMs and submarine-launched ballistic missiles, its nuclear forces still lack the geographic distribution and concealment capabilities of U.S. strategic forces spread across multiple continents and oceans.
One of China’s most critical strategic weaknesses is its lack of allies. Beijing has only one formal mutual-defense treaty, the 1961 pact with North Korea, and even that relationship is strained. Its ties with Russia, Iran, Pakistan, and other authoritarian partners do not include binding defense obligations, and Russia’s “no limits partnership” with China explicitly excludes a military alliance. By contrast, the United States maintains the world’s strongest alliance network, including NATO in Europe and formal defense treaties with Japan, South Korea, the Philippines, Australia, Thailand, and states across the Western Hemisphere under the Rio Treaty.
Even within China’s informal axis of Russia, Pakistan, and other aligned states, there is no proven joint operations capability. China and Russia have conducted more than 90 joint exercises since 2003, some involving amphibious assault or naval blockade simulations, and China and Pakistan conduct regular training, exchanges, and arms transfers. On paper, these activities project an image of unity. In practice, however, analysts consistently find that the cooperation falls far short of true interoperability.
A 2024 U.S. Army War College study concluded that China and Russia still lack the ability to conduct real joint operations, and there is no sign this will change. Despite two decades of exercises, Chinese and Russian troops have never fought side by side, executed a joint deployment, or integrated their command structures in wartime scenarios.
Most “joint” drills amount to geographic de-confliction rather than unified command, shared communications systems, or combined-arms doctrine. The China–Pakistan relationship shows similar limits: Beijing trains and arms Pakistani forces, but no evidence demonstrates a mature, battle-tested joint-operations framework.
The United States and its allies operate at a far higher level because they have spent decades, and in many cases more than a century, building deep military interoperability. NATO and America’s treaty partners share standardized communications protocols, compatible weapons systems, and common doctrine through formal mechanisms such as NATO Standardization Agreements.
English serves as the de facto operating language across most allied militaries, making planning, command, and training vastly easier. These shared systems, procedures, and communications frameworks give the U.S.-led alliance system a structural foundation for real coalition warfare.
That foundation has been reinforced by repeated combat experience. The United States, United Kingdom, Australia, Canada, France, and others have fought side by side in World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, the 1991 Gulf War, the 1999 Kosovo campaign, the twenty-year war in Afghanistan under NATO’s Article 5 mandate, and the 2003 Iraq War.
They have also deployed together in countless smaller conflicts, counterterrorism missions, peacekeeping operations, and maritime patrols. This shared wartime history builds trust, habit, and an instinctive understanding of how to coordinate joint operations under pressure—real-world readiness no rival bloc can match.
China’s partnerships lack this institutional depth and combat experience. The China–Russia relationship, despite more frequent exercises and growing alignment, remains informal and largely symbolic. Joint drills rarely address the requirements of true interoperability—integrated communications, unified command-and-control structures, synchronized logistics, or standardized equipment.
Training typically occurs in parallel rather than as integrated combat formations, and China has never fought a modern war alongside Russia, Pakistan, Iran, or any other partner. Differences in language, doctrine, equipment, and command systems further limit integration. As a result, China and its partners have no proven joint-operations capability, no shared wartime history, and no alliance framework capable of matching the global reach and combat-tested cohesion of U.S. and allied forces.
Combat experience is another glaring deficiency. The PLA has not fought a major conflict since the 1979 Sino-Vietnamese War, which lasted less than a month, leaving an entire generation of officers without real wartime experience. While training and exercises have improved dramatically, they cannot fully replicate the chaos, friction, and unpredictability of actual combat.
The PLA also faces significant organizational and interoperability issues. Despite recent reforms, the creation of new cyber, space, and information forces has introduced additional integration challenges that will take years to resolve. China’s rapid acquisition of advanced technologies, from hypersonic weapons to AI-enabled systems, now outpaces its ability to integrate them effectively. The core challenge is not building individual platforms but creating seamless coordination between sensors, shooters, and decision-makers across all domains simultaneously.
The PLA’s emphasis on informatized and intelligent warfare demands unprecedented synchronization between space-based sensors, cyber operations, electronic warfare, kinetic strikes, and information operations. This integration problem becomes exponentially more difficult when facing a peer adversary with sophisticated jamming, cyber capabilities, and systems designed to disrupt Chinese command-and-control.
China’s most pressing problem is one the US does not have to face at all, a time frame. China has set ambitious milestones: 2027 for initial capability, 2035 for full modernization, and 2049 for “world-class” status.
While these goals remain achievable, they create pressure that could lead to premature action or insufficient development of critical capabilities. The 2027 target, marking the PLA’s centenary, represents building material capabilities for credible military options, not necessarily invasion timelines. However, the political symbolism attached to these dates creates pressure to demonstrate capabilities that may not be fully mature.
China’s strategic patience, while generally sound, faces internal pressures from nationalist expectations and external pressures from a changing strategic environment. The window for peaceful resolution of core interests like Taiwan may be narrowing, potentially forcing China to act before its military capabilities are fully developed.
These missing capabilities suggest that while China poses an increasingly credible threat within its immediate periphery, true global military parity remains years away. The United States retains significant advantages in power projection, nuclear sophistication, joint operations experience, and systems integration.
However, China’s methodical approach and strategic patience mean these gaps will likely narrow over time. While the PLA has made remarkable progress in developing individual capabilities, transforming them into integrated, combat-tested systems capable of challenging U.S. military dominance globally remains the ultimate test of Chinese military modernization.
According to the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office, the shooting appears to have been a targeted attack, though the motive remains unclear.
Stockton Vice Mayor Jason Lee said in a post on Facebook, “Tonight, my heart is heavy in a way that’s hard to put into words. As Vice Mayor of Stockton — and as someone who grew up in this community — I am devastated and angry to learn about the mass shooting at a child’s birthday party. An ice cream shop should never be a place where families fear for their lives.”
“Violence touched my life as a young person, and seeing our own children, parents, and neighbors go through this shakes me deeply. Stockton is my home. These are our families. This is our community,” Lee continued. “…Our community deserves to know the truth, and the families impacted deserve justice and every resource available to support them.”
California birthday party shooting update:
– 14 victims
– 4 dead
– shooter still on the run
– appears to be a targeted attack
Early reports indicated that the shooting was at a Dairy Queen, but it was later determined to be at a nearby banquet hall.

No arrests have been made, and the suspect or suspects are still at large.
The FBI has joined the investigation to assist local authorities.
Stockton Mayor Christina Fugazi wrote in a post on Facebook, “Our first responders acted quickly, securing multiple scenes and providing immediate medical aid. Their professionalism reflects the very best of our city.”
Fugazi continued, “As Mayor, I am ensuring every necessary resource is available and that our city supports this effort at every level. Right now, our focus must remain on the victims, their families, and the safety of the community.”
The San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office wrote in a post on Facebook, “We are urging anyone with information, video footage, or who may have witnessed any part of this incident to contact the San Joaquin County Sheriff’s Office immediately. Community assistance is vital in helping us identify those responsible and bring justice to the victims and their loved ones.”
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz responded to Trump, calling him “seriously retarded” on Sunday, saying it was a “badge of honor.”
Maybe he is a retard.
Walz then whined about the President’s use of a word that was once a socially acceptable term used to troll people, and is colloquially synonymous with “idiot,” as “so damaging” and “hurtful.”
Walz: Look, Donald Trump insulting me is a badge of honor for me, but I think we all know, both as an educator for a couple of decades and as a parent, using that term is just so damaging. It’s hurtful…
This comes after Trump slammed “the seriously retarded Governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz,” for allowing “hundreds of thousands of refugees from Somalia” to invade his state and steal American land and culture.
In a late-night Thanksgiving message, following the terrorist ambush by a Biden illegal from Afghanistan against two West Virginia National Guardsmen in Washington, DC, which killed one and critically injured the other, Trump went off on the unvetted immigration crisis and the “retarded” leftist politicians like Tim Walz.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, Walz gave a pathetic response to Trump’s remark on Friday, saying, “release the MRI results” amid speculation about Trump’s health.
But these are the same people who think Joe Biden and Kamala Harris are geniuses.
