Trump’s Senior Counselor to the President for Trade and Manufacturing, Peter Navarro, eviscerated a CBS reporter this afternoon during a press conference, slamming her for working as a “sock puppet” for the left and asking a politically motivated question to hurt Republicans in the midterms. 

Navarro delivered a news conference at the White House on Friday to tout Trump’s US “manufacturing renaissance,” where he highlighted the trillions of dollars in investments in US manufacturing under Trump.

Notably, only about 10 reporters attended, which Navarro said was “disappointing.”

“It’s really disappointing that some of the so-called mainstream media, legacy media aren’t here. I want to call Fox out in particular,” Navarro said to open the press conference, and he took several shots at the mainstream media throughout his remarks.

When a reporter later identified herself as a CBS reporter to ask a question, Navarro exclaimed, “Hallelujah!”

But when she asked her question, he was less pleased. “Are you able to speak a little bit about the pressures that elevated diesel prices are putting on manufacturing?” she asked.

“Now, see, check this out. The legacy media comes in here, and we’re talking about manufacturing, and the first thing she hits with is diesel prices, right? That’s what these people want to hit with going into this election, okay? They don’t want to talk about any of this stuff,” Navarro fired back.

“So, if you’ve got a good question and you want to write a good story about this, hit me with it, but don’t give me that crap, okay? No, we’re not doing that!”

“Manufacturers rely on diesel for their plants,” she responded, as Navarro interrupted, “Oh, we’re pivoting that way, yes.” She continued, “No, sorry, I’m wondering about manufacturers that rely on diesel-powered machinery.”

Navarro cut her off and said, “Just hand the microphone over to the next person.”

“It’s like folks, you’ve got to learn, okay? There’s a lot of stories in the world. You can’t just be — you’re a young person. Don’t be a sock puppet for your liberal producers and work as an agent to interfere with a selection with crap like that.”

Moms for Liberty has announced a new tool to help parents address controversial policies before they are put to a vote.

The new AI system, Agenda Watch, Alert, Response, and Engage (M4L AWARE), will monitor school board agendas in more than 13,000 school districts nationwide for topics such as DEI, gender policies, curriculum changes, and Title IX issues.

Flagged items go to local chapters as a plain-language summary and a shareable alert, giving parents time to sign up for public comment before a vote.

Tina Descovich, Moms for Liberty co-founder and CEO, told Fox News Digital, “The Biden admin targeted our parents for showing up to school board meetings, but we were just getting started.”

“Wait and see what happens when parents receive timely information about what is being discussed at their school board meetings.”

Per Fox News:

When the system flags a high-priority item, it sends local Moms for Liberty chapters a plain-language summary and a ready-to-share alert designed to help parents organize before a school board meeting.

The organization says its system is designed to give chapters a window of roughly 72 hours to mobilize parents, sign up for public comment and scrutinize proposals before board members cast their votes.

“Moms for Liberty is harnessing AI to increase the oversight of school boards across the nation, empowering parents like never before,” Descovich said. “For five years, we’ve asked parents to show up at school board meetings, and they have. The problem is that it’s incredibly time-consuming to sift through thousands of pages in agendas each week, and school districts count on that.”

The announcement comes after the U.S. Department of Education (ED) and the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) sent a joint letter to all state Attorneys General reaffirming the Trump Administration’s commitment to protecting parental rights.

“The letter puts Attorneys General on notice that under the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Protection of Pupil Rights Amendment (PPRA), parents have the right to know and be informed of the most sensitive and personal information pertaining to their children.”

The Biden administration weaponized the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) to investigate parents who attended school board meetings,” including setting up a dedicated snitch-line,” with some parents labeled “domestic terrorists.“

“One FBI field office interviewed a mother because she was a member of Moms for Liberty, which it disparaged as a ‘right-wing mom’s group.’”

The Gateway Pundit reported on a letter from an insider with information on how the teachers union, Garland, and the FBI met and organized how to combat America’s parents who were speaking out at local school board meetings across the country.

Attorney General Todd Blanche recently released an explosive report exposing former AG Merrick Garland’s weaponization against parents of school children.

Canada lost another 68,000 jobs in September following Prime Minister Mark Carney’s globalist war on Trump.

This follows the previous month’s job losses of 41,700 in August.

Maybe Carney was not so smart in pitting his country’s workers against the world’s largest economy?

Since Carney took on Trump, the US created 975,000 jobs and Canada lost 110,000 jobs!

Over the past 2 months:

America: gained 975k jobs.

Canada: lost 110k jobs. https://t.co/CSpfV4nMRY

Carney, the globalist savior, does not look so bright.

Score ANOTHER victory for Donald Trump!

The Last Refuge reported:

According to the latest data from Statistics Canada, the Canadian economy lost a net of 68,300 jobs in September. This follows a loss of 41,700 positions in August and wipes out all job gains for the entire year 2026.

The alarming results come after Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has led all provincial premiers in a coordinated effort to confront U.S. President Donald Trump through an “elbow’s up” program of political antagonism and trade conflict.

Based on economic scale, Canada losing 68,000 jobs in a month would be the U.S. equivalent of losing 500,000 jobs. The “elbow’s up” program may be politically beneficial to Prime Minister Carney, but the economic consequences are crushing the northern neighbors.

The Canadian dollar immediately weakened after the jobs report and was trading down 0.44% at C$1.4287 to the US dollar, or 69.99 US cents. Yields on the two-year government bonds reversed early moves and were trading down 9.5 basis points to 2.410%.

More… Canadian Unemployment is second-highest in the G7.

BREAKING

Canada LOST 110K jobs in August & September.

Unemployment is the second HIGHEST in the G7.

Labour participation is the WORST in 30 years.

Carney promised the strongest economy in the G7—he’s delivered the WEAKEST.

The House has reportedly found a new press secretary to succeed Karoline Leavitt, who was the youngest Press Secretary in history. 

Katie Zacharia, a lawyer, conservative media personality, and former DHS spokeswoman, has been offered the position. It is unclear whether she has accepted or when she would begin.

The New York Times reported on Friday,

Katie Zacharia, a conservative commentator who briefly worked at the Department of Homeland Security, has been chosen as the next White House press secretary, according to two people familiar with the matter.

Ms. Zacharia will succeed Karoline Leavitt, who left the position in August. According to her LinkedIn profile, she is currently a communications adviser to Trump Media and Technology Group, which runs Truth Social. She had a brief stint working as a spokeswoman for then-Secretary Kristi Noem at the Department of Homeland Security and is a frequent guest on conservative media.

The White House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

A White House spokesperson confirms to The Gateway Pundit that Zacharia was offered the position, but did not provide further details.

More from Fox:

Leavitt, who left her role as Press Secretary in August after giving birth to a second child earlier this year, landed a new gig as a Fox News contributor, the Gateway Pundit previously reported.

Leavitt will begin in her new role at Fox on November 1.

“Independent” hopeful Brian Bengs compared himself to President Theodore Roosevelt in an exclusive interview with The Gateway Pundit. Bengs called himself a “Teddy Roosevelt Republican.”

Bengs is running in deep red South Dakota against incumbent GOP Senator Mike Rounds, who is running for a third term.

He is part of a recurring theme of independent candidates running to flip Congressional seats in states Democrats have zero chance in. States like Montana, Nebraska, Idaho, and, of course, South Dakota come to mind.

The interview started with Bengs expressing confidence that he can defeat Rounds in November.

“He is historically unpopular. We’ve done multiple polls, better part of 10 polls since July of last year, and his highest polling job approval number was forty percent,” Bengs told TGP.

His lowest was thirty-two. He’s falling in between there. So over the last year, heavily Republican polls show that his job approval is underwater dramatically.”

Bengs then lays out some of his priorities for South Dakota if he were to be elected as its next U.S. Senator:

“I’ve called myself a ‘Teddy Roosevelt Republican’ because I am saying the same things that Teddy Roosevelt was saying over a century ago. The single biggest problem we need to address, and I’ve talked to thousands of South Dakotans about it, is that big money controls our elected officials in the sense that they’re doing what people who write the large campaign checks want instead of what voters want.”

Bengs then shifted into a more common Democrat talking point, which is to raise taxes and “have billionaires pay a higher tax rate than the people who work for a living.”

He believes that he can implement “the old Teddy Roosevelt mantra of being a trustbuster” and bust the “Meat Packing Monopoly” in South Dakota.

South Dakota currently ranks 7th in cattle production and 5th in Beef Cow production in the country. Will “busting the Meat Packing Monopoly” help or hurt the state’s cattle industry?

Independent U.S. candidate, @BrianBengs calls himself a “Teddy Roosevelt Republican.”

Thoughts?

This is not the first time he has said or done something interesting.

In late September, Bengs melted down at a press conference he attended with Nebraska “Independent” Dan Osborn  and Alaska “Independent” Bill Hill in Washington, DC.

As Bengs was speaking, an individual verbally confronted Osborn over a leaked recording of him privately trashing Trump voters. Bengs then walked over to the individual and raised his voice at him.

“This is the problem. This is it. The civility of politics is not here because there’s name-calling,” Bengs yelled.

His unhinged response to someone exercising their First Amendment rights gets even funnier when you account for the fact that the individual wasn’t even speaking to Bengs.

While these candidates present themselves as alternative choices outside of the two-party system that the American People are growing frustrated with, one major issue remains. Many argue that these so-called “independents” are just Democrats in disguise.

What’s even more telling is that Democratic nominees even bowed out of the Senate races in Nebraska, Idaho, and South Dakota in order to clear the way for these independent candidates. Why would they do that?

Will the American People fall for Bengs comparing himself to President Roosevelt? Only time will tell come November.

Well, it turns out not every liberal actor in Hollywood harbors unhinged hate for conservatives.

(Though many certainly do.)

Marvel actor Sebastian Stan — perhaps best known for playing the Winter Soldier — appeared on “The Daily Show” to discuss his upcoming film “Fjord.”

And, somewhat surprisingly given what we know of Stan’s politics, the actor actually had a very easy pathway to attack conservatives — and didn’t.

Michael Kosta, one of the rotating hosts of “The Daily Show” — a progressive parody of cable news — spoke to Stan on Wednesday about his upcoming movie.

And before we go any further, here is a quick recap of “Fjord.”

Mihai Gheorghiu, who is portrayed by Stan, and Lisbet Gheorghiu, portrayed by Renate Reinsve, are a devout evangelical Christian couple with five children who move from Romania to a remote Norwegian fjord, where Lisbet was originally from.

The Gheorghiu family’s faith means they raise their children in a conservative manner — putting them at immediate odds with the fjord’s liberal populace.

Things come to a head when Mihai’s daughter shows up to school with bruises, and the entire town immediately casts aspersions on the family, with authorities eventually hauling all five children away.

And now a spoiler warning: Lisbet struggles mightily to cope with the loss of her children, while Mihai rallied other conservative Christian networks across the world to support his case.

Interestingly, the movie deliberately avoids answering the question of who, or what, caused the daughter’s bruises. The movie intentionally leaves this ambiguous — maybe Mihai is abusive, maybe the daughter got bruised while wrestling at school, or maybe the daughter got hurt while playing games with neighbors.

The movie ultimately seems more interested in exploring what happens when cultures clash — the liberal fjord folks are not presented in an especially gracious manner, often seeming rigid and paranoid — instead of ascribing villainy to any side.

But that brings us back to Wednesday’s Daily Show appearance.

“Some people might characterize the themes of this movie as fairly conservative,” Kosta said. “What’s your response to that? Are people overthinking it?”

“No, I mean, I think that’s a pretty fair assessment, but that shouldn’t necessarily cancel out the issues that this family is facing or that the feelings that they have and the desire that they have to raise the kids in the best way they can,” Stan replied.

“I think there’s probably always, on either side, that there needs to be an opening of a door, you know, for more of a back and forth to happen,” he continued.

“Like, when did conservative become so wrong, I guess? I didn’t really grow up in that kind of a religious environment, but as long as there’s curiosity, at least, instead of immediate judgment, maybe there’s something else there,” Stan said.

“But if a family is trying to stay together, we should at least give them the benefit of the doubt that maybe they’re trying to do it for the right reasons.”

That… is a shockingly good response, especially for a liberal actor who was flamed for his antagonistic portrayal of a young Donald Trump in the biopic “The Apprentice.”

Fair is fair, and I genuinely wish more actors adopted Stan’s approach to conservatism.

(Which, I should note, is a fairly new approach, given that Stan once told The Hollywood Reporter that Trump was a “paranoid, scared little man.”)

The most refreshing part of Stan’s response is that he didn’t endorse conservatism, renounce liberalism, or pretend that ideological differences don’t matter.

He simply acknowledged that conservative Christians are human beings whose beliefs deserve to be understood before they’re condemned.

In today’s Hollywood, that’s a surprisingly radical concept.

Stan’s politics may not have changed, and that’s perfectly fine. If more Americans approached their ideological opponents with the same curiosity instead of reflexive contempt, perhaps we’d discover that disagreement doesn’t have to mean disdain.

“Fjord” hits theaters on Oct. 9.

President Trump on Friday released a statement on his latest phone call with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

Trump said the US will now be importing diesel fuel from Russia.

The President secured several million tons of Russian diesel ahead of the midterm elections in additional to his executive order to slash prices.

Full statement from President Trump:

I have just concluded a highly successful discussion with President Vladimir Putin, of Russia, wherein it was agreed that Russia will immediately supply over 300,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel to the American and Global Marketplace, another 500,000 Tons during the month of November, and 1,000,000 Tons immediately thereafter.

Additionally, based on the condition of their Diesel Refineries, Russia will then deliver, within a short period of time, 3,000,000 Tons of Diesel Fuel.

Between our TOTAL CONTROL of the Strait of Hormuz, and this great announcement on Russian Energy, Diesel Prices for Americans and, indeed, the World, will be COMING DOWN, IN RECORD NUMBERS, AND FAST! Lower prices for Americans, especially our Great Farmers, Ranchers, and Truckers, is my Greatest Priority.

This is a very big and important announcement. Additionally, it must be understood, that Iran will not have a Nuclear Weapon! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

Over the summer, President Trump announced a historic deal with Venezuela.

The US government secured a 35% equity stake in the parent company of NABEP, a firm controlled by Venezuelan billionaire Alejandro Betancourt – and major off-take rights over 65 billion barrels of Venezuelan oil.

Police bodycam footage released on Friday shows the immediate aftermath following an ICE-involved shooting in the Bronx on Thursday evening.

Protests erupted in the Bronx on Thursday evening after an ICE agent shot and wounded an illegal alien from the Dominican Republic in Marble Hill.

Video posted to social media shows anti-ICE activists blocking federal vehicles and confronting ICE agents after the officer-involved shooting.

The Department of Homeland Security confirmed an ICE agent shot a criminal alien gang member in the Bronx on Thursday.

The wounded alien was transported to a local hospital.

“ICE officers immediately rendered aid. The individual is alive and at a local hospital. The FBI and HSI are on the scene. The incident remains under investigation. More information will be shared as it becomes available,” the DHS said in a statement.

Communist Muslim Mayor Zohran Mamdani fanned the flames after the ICE-involved shooting and called for ICE to be abolished.

“This afternoon in Marble Hill, a New Yorker was shot by an ICE agent in a residential neighborhood. Early reports indicate agents surrounded him and a 5-year-old child in his car before firing multiple rounds. We believe the child was physically unharmed,” Mamdani said.

“Get ICE out of our neighborhoods. Get ICE out of our hospitals. Get ICE off our streets. Get ICE away from our children,” Mamdani said.

“Abolish ICE,” he said.

NYPD bodycam footage shows officers responding to the scene and rendering aid to the wounded illegal alien.

A crowd of anti-ICE protesters began forming as police took the criminal alien, identified as 28-year-old Oscar Belgal, into custody.

President Trump is escalating his effort to oust embattled Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook over allegations of mortgage fraud.

Trump announced his administrations has established a committee to investigate Lisa Cook.

“By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, I hereby establish a committee of inquiry (Committee) to investigate allegations that Federal Reserve Governor Lisa D. Cook made false statements in connection with one or more mortgage instruments. The Assistant to the President for Economic Policy, the Chairman of the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, and the Director of the Office of Government Ethics shall serve as members of the Committee,” Trump said in a memorandum.

In August, President Trump renewed efforts to fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook after the Supreme Court ruled she could keep her job.

In June, the US Supreme Court said President Trump cannot fire Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook.

The high court, in a 5-4 vote, ruled that Trump cannot remove Cook.

Chief Justice Roberts wrote the majority opinion.

“To accept any of those arguments would in effect transform the Federal Reserve’s for-cause protection into at-will employment,” Roberts wrote.

DOJ Solicitor General John Sauer, in his petition to the Supreme Court, said the lower courts have interfered with the President’s authority to remove members of the Federal Reserve Board of Governors for cause.

Lisa Cook apparently owns three properties, and she allegedly committed mortgage fraud on all three properties.

According to housing regulator Bill Pulte’s first criminal referral, Lisa Cook committed mortgage fraud by lying on her mortgage application and falsifying bank statements when she designated her out-of-state Atlanta condo as her “primary residence”—just two weeks after taking a loan on her Michigan home, which she also claimed as her “primary residence.”

Last August, Pulte sent a second criminal referral on Lisa Cook after she was allegedly caught lying about a third property.

Lisa Cook’s attorneys laughably claimed there would be an inflation crisis if Trump were allowed to fire Cook.
