As controversy brews over Donald Trump's apparent Nobel Prize snub, the president is exposing the political bias that led to Barack Obama receiving the coveted award for "doing nothing," the Daily Mail reports.
"They gave it to Obama for absolutely nothing but destroying our country," Trump told reporters. "He got a prize for doing nothing."
Indeed, Obama received the Nobel Peace Prize a mere eight months into his eight-year long presidency, before the "hope and change" candidate had the chance to do anything very consequential on the world stage.
Even the liberal New York Times called Obama's Nobel Prize honor "premature" at the time, and to this day, it is still not clear what he did to merit the prize.
By the time Obama left the White House, the democratic hopes of the Arab Spring had turned to violence, ISIS was on the rise in Iraq, and Syria and Libya were in full-blown civil wars. When Trump became president in 2017, Islamist terrorism was surging all across the West.
Trump's criticism of Obama's Nobel Prize came shortly before Venezuelan opposition leader Maria Corina Machado was announced as the winner of the Nobel Peace Prize for 2025.
Critics, including those at the White House, have slammed the Nobel Committee's decision as political in the wake of Trump's historic Gaza peace deal, which has the potential to usher in a new chapter in the troubled Middle East.
However, it wasn't the snub it appeared to be, as the committee had already made its decision two days before the first phase of Trump's deal was approved by Israel and Hamas, the New York Post reported.
President Trump will continue making peace deals, ending wars, and saving lives.
He has the heart of a humanitarian, and there will never be anyone like him who can move mountains with the sheer force of his will.

While the full scope of the comprehensive 20-point plan remains to be implemented, the agreement is a giant step forward after the two deadliest years in the history of the Israel-Palestine conflict.
The last of the Israeli hostages, both dead and alive, are expected to be released early next week, and displaced Palestinians have begun returning to their homes after the cease-fire was officially implemented on Friday.
In typical Obama fashion, the former president released a passive-aggressive statement celebrating the breakthrough without giving Trump any credit at all.
"After two years of unimaginable loss and suffering for Israeli families and the people of Gaza, we should all be encouraged and relieved that an end to the conflict is within sight; that those hostages still being held will be reunited with their families; and that vital aid can start reaching those inside Gaza whose lives have been shattered,” Obama’s post read.
If the Gaza peace holds, it will be difficult for the Nobel Prize to retain any credibility if Trump does not receive it in 2026.
The fallout continues for Jay Jones, the Democratic candidate for Virginia attorney general, who was forced to cancel Thursday night's fundraiser, Fox News reported. Jones' hopes for the top cop position are fading fast after text messages stating that he wants to put "two bullets" into Republican Todd Gilbert, who was then-Virginia House Speaker, have surfaced.
Donors who were invited to author David Baldacci's home for the event were notified that the fundraiser was canceled and that their donations would be refunded. Many believe this is directly related to the text messages, as Jones continues to face criticism over his celebration of violence.
The messages were exchanged in 2022, but the political climate has considerably changed with the assassination of Charlie Kirk. Calls for violence from the left have taken on a new gravity, and Jones' messages were particularly disturbing as it is.
Democrats acknowledge that "violent words precede violent actions" and "we should have a culture of condemning any rhetoric that glorifies violence." Fellow Democratic candidates in Virginia have rebuked Jones, but none are calling for him to step down from the race yet. Jones has apologized for the messages, but he is still in the race for top law enforcement official in Virginia.
In his text messages, Jones was fantasizing about what he would do if he had two bullets and three people when he came to a sickening conclusion. "Three people, two bullets," the text messages read.
"Gilbert, hitler, and pol pot. Gilbert gets two bullets to the head," Jones wrote of the former House Speaker of Virginia.
"Spoiler: put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time," Gilbert added. He was corresponding with GOP House Delegate Carrie Coyner with this disgusting hypothetical, according to The Hill.
Conyner told him to stop, but Jones reportedly went on to more demented scenarios, including hoping that Gilbert's wife would have to see her children dead so that her husband would "feel pain" and understand the ramifications of his stance on the Second Amendment. Screenshots of this horrific exchange were shared to X, formerly Twitter, by political commentator Benny Johnson.
After Charlie Kirk and Donald Trump were both shot in the head by Democrats you probably don't need *more* proof that Democrats want to kill you...
But if you do, boy do I have a story for you.
Meet Jay Jones. Jay is the Democrat candidate for Attorney General of Virginia.

Virginia House Speaker Don Scott, who calls Gilbert his "friend," criticized Jones for his hateful messages and urged him to repent. “What Jay said was harmful, reckless, and wrong. He needs to apologize now. He must take accountability for his words, and then reflect and pray," the Democrat claimed.
Normally, it would be unthinkable for a man like Jones to have a political future, but this is the Democratic Party, so the best they'll do is a strongly worded message. Scott said over the weekend that the big worry is that the candidates will lose focus and get "distracted" over this scandal as Democrats push back against President Donald Trump.
“We can’t get distracted because they want us to get distracted by a text message here or something else. Stay focused," Scott urged. Others in the party on the Virginia Beach Democratic Committee downplayed the severity of the messages and urged clemency for Jones.
"Recent press may have highlighted past mistakes. We say, let those without sin cast the first stone," the committee said Saturday, using a biblical allusion (Democrats only seem to care about Christian principles when they think it will take the heat off of them).
Jones does not deserve to hold public office at all, let alone as Virginia's top cop, but Democrats really don't care. They're focused on making sure Republicans lose, even if they have to support the kind of people who fantasize about shooting others and inflicting pain.
Kiss frontman Gene Simmons was taken to an area hospital on Tuesday after he crashed his SUV in Malibu, the Associated Press reported. Simmons was driving the Pacific Coast Highway when he passed out behind the wheel, causing him to cross several lanes of traffic before hitting a car parked on the side of the waterfront highway.
On the day after the crash, Simmons took to X, formerly Twitter, to thank his fans for reaching out to make sure he was okay after being treated and released from the hospital. "Thanks, everybody, for the kind wishes," the 76-year-old rock star wrote.
"I’m completely fine. I had a slight fender bender. It happens. Especially to those of us were horrible drivers. And that’s me. All is well," Simmons concluded.
Thanks, everybody, for the kind wishes. I’m completely fine. I had a slight fender bender. It happens. Especially to those of us were horrible drivers. And that’s me. All is well.
— Gene Simmons (@genesimmons) October 8, 2025
While authorities have not released official word on the circumstances of the crash, it's believed that Simmons possibly fainted behind the wheel that made him lose control of his vehicle. He is no stranger to traveling, as his "Rock and Roll All Nite" band has spent nearly the last half-century touring.
In 2023, Kiss officially ended their live shows, but Simmons and the rest of his band are still slated to play in Las Vegas in November for a special event. President Donald Trump had also announced in August that the band would be among the Kennedy Center honorees for this year.
Hopefully Simmons makes a full recovery, as he is not the only band member to suffer medical problems this year. According to the New York Post, Ace Frehley, co-founder of Kiss and a former guitarist for the band, had to cancel the rest of his tour dates for the year "due to some ongoing medical issues," the Instagram account for his band, the Spaceman and Space Ace, posted on Monday.
This comes after the 74-year-old was forced to cancel a Sept. 26 performance after suffering "a minor fall in his studio" that required "a trip to the hospital." It will also derail the planned November reunion festival in Las Vegas with original bandmates, including Simmons, Frehley, Peter Criss, and Paul Stanley.
The three-day festival, Kiss Kruise: Land-Locked in Vegas, was slated for Nov. 14-26 with an itinerary mimicking a sea cruise. It was to be the first time the band played together since their 2023 retirement, but with half of the founding members of the band suffering medical issues, it's unclear what the future holds.
Kiss was known for their signature look, which included black-and-white face makeup, black wigs, and a lot of studded leather. They have a following that spans generations, and the band was looking forward to tapping into the energy their fan base again brings to the shows.
"Because we’re not touring, and because the band isn’t what it was, doesn’t mean we’ve forgotten our fans. Our fans made us who we are and continue to keep us where we are," Stanley said to Joel Madden's Artist Friendly podcast earlier this year.
Stanley also talked up the upcoming festival. "We’re doing a Kiss cruise without a ship. We’ve got the Virgin Hotel. We’re going to play. Other bands are going to play," Stanley explained.
"We’ll do Q&As," he added about the band's plans for the November gig. "There will be competitions. There’s going to be everything that people expected on the Kiss cruise," he added.
Kiss is a band beloved by many, but even rock stars have to slow down at some point. There's a chance there's still music left in Simmons, Stanley, and the rest of the band, but it's no secret that the time will soon come to hang up the wigs and leather for good.
The Cabinet of President Donald Trump broke out in spontaneous applause on Thursday afternoon when he signed a proclamation honoring Christopher Columbus for Columbus Day on Monday.
"Today we have your Columbus Day proclamation for Monday, which we're signing a bit early," White House staff secretary Will Scharf told Trump before the customary monthly Cabinet meeting.
"Columbus, obviously, discovered the new world in 1492. He was a great Italian explorer. He sailed his three ships, the Nina, the Pinto and Santa Maria, across the Atlantic Ocean, and landed in what's today the Caribbean. And this is a particularly important holiday for Italian Americans who celebrate the legacy of Christopher Columbus, and the innovation and explorer zeal that he represented," he continued.
"In other words, we're calling it Columbus Day," Trump quipped as the Cabinet applauded.
"We're back, Italians," he went on, as the applause continued. Trump himself is not Italian; he is German and Scottish.
Later, Trump claimed that it was the press applauding when he made the remarks, but that seems unlikely.
Columbus Day has become something of a flashpoint between conservatives and liberals, with liberals choosing to call the day "Indigenous People's Day" because of a belief that Columbus contributed to "genocide" of Native Americans.
Given that the press is notoriously liberal, it doesn't seem like they would clap for Columbus unless most of them are Italian.
The day has only been a federal holiday since 1971, although Italian-Americans celebrated it on their own before that.
Trump also signed a proclamation honoring Leif Erikson as the first explorer to set foot on North American soil on October 9.
Hold onto your hats, folks—former FBI Director James Comey is in hot water, facing serious charges that could unravel a tangled web of Washington intrigue.
The saga unfolded with Comey entering a not guilty plea to accusations of making false statements and obstructing a congressional proceeding from 2020, a case now complicated by the looming presence of classified materials.
This legal drama kicked off with an arraignment in Alexandria, Virginia, on a Wednesday morning, where Comey stood before the court to face the music.
When questioned by U.S. District Judge Michael Nachmanoff about whether he grasped the gravity of the charges, Comey responded with a calm, “I do, your honor. Thank you very much.”
That polite reply might sound confident, but it’s hard to ignore the irony of a former top lawman now defending himself against claims of dishonesty—shouldn’t the FBI’s finest be above such accusations?
Following an indictment on Sept. 25, Comey issued a statement welcoming the chance for a trial, seemingly eager to clear his name in the public eye.
Yet, his attorney, Patrick Fitzgerald, hinted at a different strategy, suggesting they might try to sidestep a full-blown trial altogether—a move that raises eyebrows about what might be lurking in the shadows of this case.
Prosecutors, led by U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan, dropped a bombshell by revealing that classified information will play a role in the discovery phase, a detail not previously discussed before the arraignment.
Halligan described the situation as intricate, requesting extra time before heading to trial, a plea that suggests the government is wading through a bureaucratic swamp of sensitive data.
Judge Nachmanoff, however, wasn’t entirely buying the complexity argument, expressing skepticism over the fuss surrounding what appears to be a straightforward two-charge indictment.
Still, he agreed to set a preliminary trial date for Jan. 5, giving a nod to the prosecution’s concerns while keeping the wheels of justice turning.
The government also pushed for the trial to fall outside the usual speedy trial window, citing the sheer volume of discovery materials—including those classified tidbits that could make or break the case.
From a conservative lens, this case reeks of the deep state’s endless appetite for drama—why does it always seem like classified info pops up to muddy the waters when high-profile figures are in the dock?
Comey’s tenure at the FBI was marked by decisions many on the right view as overreaching or politically motivated, and now, seeing him face charges feels like a long-overdue reckoning, though one must wonder if justice will truly be blind here.
While the left may paint this as a witch hunt, the presence of classified materials and the serious nature of obstructing congressional proceedings demand accountability—no one should be above the law, especially not a former FBI director.
No members of the Supreme Court attended this year's annual Red Mass in Washington D.C. after an insane man was caught with a huge stash of explosives outside the church.
41-year-old Louis Geri of Vineland, New Jersey, was found in possession of more than 200 homemade bombs in a tent outside St. Matthew's Cathedral on Sunday, the Washington Post reported.
After a tense standoff, police took Geri into custody and found a large arsenal of explosives, some of which contained the same chemicals used in the Oklahoma City bombing.
The maniac handed police a notebook with the title, "Written Negotiations for the Avoidance of Destruction of Property via Detonation of Explosives."
In it, Geri expressed hatred toward Catholics, the Supreme Court, Jews, and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
According to court documents, Geri made threats as police ordered him to leave the premises, where he had set up a tent.
"Do you want me to throw one out, I'll test one out on the streets? I have 100-plus of them," Geri told a police sergeant, according to court records.
"If you just step back, I'll take out that tree. No one will get hurt, there will just be a hole where that tree used to be."
During the encounter, a police sergeant agreed to read some pages from Geri's notebook, but the situation escalated when Geri started pulling out vials of yellow liquid with illegal explosive devices taped to them.
Eventually, police were able to arrest Geri after he left his tent to urinate on some trees.
The authorities found that some of the vials contained nitromethane, an explosive compound often used in improvised explosive devices, including the ones deployed in the 1995 Oklahoma City bombing, which killed 168 people, the Post reported.
The Red Mass is held each year to invoke God's blessing on the Supreme Court and others involved in the administration of justice. The celebration occurs on the Sunday before the first Monday of October, as the Supreme Court begins its term.
A majority of the court's justices, six out of nine, are Catholic. While it is typical for some justices to attend the Red Mass, none were present this year due to the security threat, according to reports.
The situation is being treated like a hate crime, with Geri facing eight charges in all, including manufacture or possession of a weapon of mass destruction in furtherance of a hate crime. A judge ordered Geri held without bond.
Dolly Parton is addressing rumors about her health after her sister left many concerned with a prayer request, People reported.
In a video shared on social media, Parton, 79, explained to fans that she had neglected her health following her husband's death earlier this year, but the issues she is having are nothing serious.
Dismissing the speculation with a light touch, Parton noted that she is very much alive and busy filming commercials at the Grand Ole Opry.
The country legend assured fans that "everybody thinks that I am sicker than I am" in the post, which was captioned, "I ain't dead yet!"
"Do I look sick to you? I'm working hard here! Anyway, I wanted to put everybody's mind at ease, those of you that seem to be real concerned, which I appreciate," she said. "I appreciate your prayers, 'cause I'm a person of faith. I can always use the prayers for anything and everything. But I want you to know that I'm okay."
The "9 to 5" singer said she had "let things go" after her husband Carl died in March.
"Back when my husband Carl was very sick, that was for a long time, and then when he passed, I didn’t take care of myself, so I let a lot of things go that I should’ve been taking care of," she said. "So anyway, when I got around to it, the doctor said, we need to take care of this. We need to take care of that. Nothing major, but I did have to cancel some things so I could be closer to home, closer to Vanderbilt [University Medical Center], where I’m kind of having a few treatments here and there, but I wanted you to know that I’m not dying."
Parton had announced in late September that she would have to postpone some concerts in Las Vegas to have some procedures done.
"I want the fans and public to hear directly from me that, unfortunately, I will need to postpone my upcoming Las Vegas concerts,” Parton wrote in a statement shared to social media. “As many of you know, I’ve been dealing with some health challenges, and my doctors tell me that I must have a few procedures. As I joked with them, it must be time for my 100,000 check-up, although it’s not the usual trip to see my plastic surgeon!”
Health rumors began to pick up after Parton's sister Freida shared a Facebook post that some found concerning.
"Last night, I was up all night praying for my sister, Dolly," Freida wrote. "Many of you know she hasn’t been feeling her best lately."
Later that same day, Freida said the request was not as grave as many assumed.
"I want to clear something up. I didn’t mean to scare anyone or make it sound so serious when asking for prayers for Dolly," she wrote on Facebook.
"She’s been a little under the weather, and I simply asked for prayers because I believe so strongly in the power of prayer. It was nothing more than a little sister asking for prayers for her big sister. Thank you all for lifting her up. Your love truly makes a difference."
Anti-Trump attack dog and notorious “Russian collusion” fabulist Eric Swalwell (D-CA) claims that President Trump is about to be overwhelmed by a groundswell of GOP opposition, the Daily Mail reports.
In a dramatic, vaguely threatening post on X, Swalwell alleged that as many as 100 Republicans will defy the president over the so-called Epstein files, which have dominated Democrats’ talking points in recent months.
In a curious shift, Democrats have cast themselves as champions of transparency in the Epstein case, which they showed little interest in until recently.
But since July of this year, when the Justice Department officially rejected the existence of the so-called client list, Democrats have fixated on accusing Trump and his administration of protecting a shadowy cabal of pedophiles.
“It's coming to an end guys. I've spoken to a lot of House Republicans this week and they've confided that Trump's movement/support is fading,' Swalwell wrote on X.
“As one told me, ‘this Epstein bomb is about to drop and no want [sic] wants to defend a pedo-protector. It's just a matter of time."
Swalwell then claimed in a follow-up post: “One Republican just texted me that if there's a discharge vote on Epstein they expect a ‘jail break’ of over 100 members. Trump will go nuts!'
Swalwell did not name any of these rebel Republicans who are supposedly ready to break with Trump.
Swalwell’s Epstein claims likely reflect the wishful thinking of his party's base more than political reality. We have heard many times before that the “walls are closing in” on Trump, and each time those predictions have proven wrong.
During Trump's first term, Swalwell was among the most prolific promoters of the baseless "Russian collusion" hoax that was predicted to end Trump's political career.
It surely does no favors to Epstein’s victims that a notorious, lying blowhard like Swalwell is now claiming to be their advocate. But Democrats believe they can use the Epstein scandal to drive a wedge between Trump and his MAGA base and tarnish the president’s reputation without evidence of wrongdoing.
Many Trump supporters remain skeptical of the government’s tidy conclusions in the Epstein case, and a few Republicans in the House have clashed with the White House over the files. But Trump’s approval rating has held steady through months of Epstein-related drama, despite Swalwell’s dramatic claims of Trump’s movement collapsing.
When asked for a response to Swalwell’s latest outlandish claims, the White House referenced Swalwell's past romantic involvement with a Chinese spy.
“Did his Chinese spy lover Fang Fang write this tweet?” White House spokesperson Abigail Jackson said.
Joan Kennedy, who was the first wife of the late Senator Edward "Ted" Kennedy, has died at 89 years old after a lifetime of struggles with mental health and addiction, Newsweek reported. She was the last remaining member of family's "Camelot" generation of political influence, which also included her late brothers-in-law, John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy.
Joan and Ted Kennedy were married from 1958 until their divorce in 1982. She was already part of the family when her brother-in-law was elected president in 1960 and her husband was elected to the Senate in 1962.
The Bronxville, New York, native prayed alongside her sister-in-law, Jackie Kennedy, after John F. Kennedy was assassinated in Dallas, Texas, in 1963. Later, Joan Kennedy also stood by her husband during his infamous scandal on Chappaquiddick Island in Massachusetts in 1969, which would follow him the rest of his life.
On July 18 of that year, Ted Kennedy crashed his car and veered off a bridge, plunging the vehicle into the water. His young female passenger, Mary Jo Kopechne, was trapped in the car and drowned while Ted Kennedy escaped the scene virtually unscathed. He was charged with leaving the scene of the accident, and Joan Kennedy would suffer a miscarriage not long after.
Heath and Human Service Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Joan Kennedy's nephew, eulogized his aunt in a post to X, formerly Twitter, on Wednesday. "My beloved aunt Joan Bennett Kennedy, former wife of the late Senator Edward M. Kennedy (D-MA), classical pianist, music teacher, and advocate for mental health and addiction services, passed away peacefully in her sleep at her home in Boston, Massachusetts yesterday at the age of 89," he wrote.
"She was my friend, confidante, and my partner in recovery. Joan inspired me with her courage and humility. She was one of the first prominent women in America to publicly acknowledge her struggles with alcoholism and depression, a move that she felt was essential to breaking the silence and tackling the taboo of addiction in the 1970s," Robert F. Kennedy Jr. continued.
"Her honesty and candor, and her ability to successfully recreate her life in Boston, a community that supported her privacy and embraced her recovery, made her an inspiration to countless other women facing similar challenges. She encouraged many family members in early sobriety," he added.
"At age 25, in 1962, Joan was the youngest wife of a U.S. Senator in United States history. She was a kind and generous aunt to me and my 27 cousins. She was the last survivor of an extraordinary generation of Kennedys. We all feel grateful for the time God gave us with her," Robert F. Kennedy Jr. concluded.

As her nephew indicated, Joan Kennedy was public about her many struggles and became an advocate for those fighting the same demons of substance abuse and mental illness. It seems her problems began after divorcing her husband, as Joan Kennedy racked up drunk driving arrests and was in and out of rehab for alcohol abuse.
In 2005, she was hospitalized after she was found unconscious on the streets of Boston. After that, her son Ted Kennedy Jr. took over as her legal guardian and took care of her. Through it all, Joan Kennedy never shied away from speaking about her struggles, hoping that it would help others.
Those around her believed that Joan Kennedy was not "fragile" but was instead a "survivor" throughout her many struggles. "I think she had a life that was very demanding of her. Sometimes she had real problems in those days," said her sister-in-law Eunice Kennedy Shriver in 2000 to The Boston Globe.
"I think she never gave up. She consistently tried to improve and overcome her problems, and eventually she did. So that is not a person who is fragile," Shriver added. After outliving those in her generation, Joan Kennedy was called the "Last Survivor of Camelot."
The Kennedy family had its share of triumphs and tragedies, and Joan Kennedy seems to have been present for them all. No other political family has held as much political mystique, and now that she's gone, the final chapter has closed for the storied family.
President Donald Trump vowed to designate Antifa as a foreign terrorist organization during a roundtable discussion on Wednesday with independent journalists Jack Posobiec and Nick Sortor, Breitbart reported. The group has already been identified as a domestic terrorist group, but proponents of the move say it has ties worldwide.
The subject arose in a question from the press, and Trump seemed open to the idea and perhaps even under the impression that it was already in the works. "Well, has that been done? Pretty close, right? Would you like to see it done?” Trump said to Posobiec, who responded, "Yes, Mr. President."
Secretary of State Marco Rubio said he'd "take care of it," and White House Deputy Chief of Staff Stephen Miller also said it was something he'd agree to do. "Yes, it’s true. There are extensive foreign ties, and I think that would be a very valid step to take," Miller explained.
NOW - Trump will classify Antifa a foreign terrorist organization. pic.twitter.com/Em4cvJP5WH
— Disclose.tv (@disclosetv) October 8, 2025
As Posoibec noted, Antifa has "foreign links all across Western Europe, the Middle East," but has caused a great deal of chaos in the U.S. already. Trump invited the independent journalists to speak with him at the White House over those concerns, especially considering that Sortor was arrested by Portland police while attempting to cover the escalating Antifa protests against Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
For his part, Sortor showed off the Cabinet officials and the press, presenting an American flag he snatched from demonstrators who attempted to burn it. The journalist told Trump that he knew the identity of the man who had done this, and Trump instructed him to share the information with Attorney General Pam Bondi so she could "start prosecutions."
Posobiec also brought proof of Antifa's aim and dangerous messaging, including what the suspected assassin, Tyler Robinson, allegedly etched onto the bullets meant for Charlie Kirk. "Thank you for mentioning the fact that one of the bullet casings read, ‘Hey fascist! Catch!’ on it," Posobiec said to the president.
"One of the other bullet casings right next to that had ‘Bella Ciao’ written on it. Now, ‘Bella Ciao’ is a song that is known in Antifa circles as the international anthem of Antifa," he explained. "And Mr. President, I think the situation is getting worse," Posobiec warned.
"When you look at people like Luigi Mangione in his twenties, Thomas Matthew Crooks, of course, who took a shot at you sir, the ICE shooter in Dallas, and now this Tyler Robinson, we’re starting to see a pattern of more and more murderous violence," Posobiec said of the alleged CEO assassin and Trump shooter, respectively. He later warned that action against this movement was cricual as "the next one who could be killed could be sitting at this table right now."
Antifa has been terrorizing American cities for decades. Still, cities like Portland routinely ignore the problem and allow the riots and destructive demonstrations to continue, along with other crimes that leftists are unwilling to prosecute. Sortor believes that all of this tolerance for chaos and continued criminal activity is out of "spite" for Trump, and it's the people who live in those cities who pay the price.
"That's simply what it's about at this point. Because if you go and talk to some of these citizens, like, I'll use Portland as an example again, because I've been there for so long now. You talk to the neighbors that live in the apartments next door to the ICE facility," Sortor said during the meeting, according to Real Clear Politics.
"They are veterans with PTSD that live there, and they're here all night long, screaming, fireworks being lit off by these rioters, children crying, because they can't sleep at night, and they're scared of all the noise outside. And they can't leave. They got a lease. You can't just leave. These people aren't wealthy individuals. And that's one of the major problems here," Sortor went on.
"These people are afraid to come out and speak out, and they're getting no help from their government at all. They've been begging for the noise ordinance to be enforced outside of their apartment complex for months now, and the city of Portland has ignored them every single time. The victims are, as I said, they're afraid, but the governments aren't doing anything because they want to spite the administration. It's all political," Sortor said.
This roundtable discussion was necessary because these problems have been allowed to fester under Democratic leadership for years. Those days are over as Trump is finally willing to crack down on these terrorist organizations and clean up these cities, and it appears leftists hate nothing more than law and order and safety.
