Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom beclowned himself by posting an absurd meme spotlighting his embarrassing ignorance of basic civics. The clown show unfolded Saturday, when Newsom's press team posted a nonsensical meme -- replete with dubious statistics -- blaming Republican Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis for the alleged murder rate in...

A man has just been arrested after burning the American flag right outside the White House. This comes just hours after President Trump signed an executive order making it illegal to burn the American flag. In defiance of this order, a deranged man, who claims to be a veteran, set fire to the American flag near the White House in protest. He was immediately arrested. Watch here: JUST IN: An unhinged liberal Karen has been arrested for burning an American flag outside the White House, just hours after President Trump signed an executive order mandating one year in prison for flag burning. pic.twitter.com/2NWQoAPktQ — DK (@1Nicdar) August 26, 2025   BREAKING: liberal arrested for burning American flag outside the White House. That didn’t take long…they can’t help themselves… pic.twitter.com/T2mit4XX2H — Officer Lew (@officer_Lew) August 26, 2025 What did he expect to happen? NBC News reported: Federal authorities Monday arrested a man across the street from the White House after he set an American flag on fire the day President Donald Trump signed an executive order intended to crack down on flag burning. The man, who identified himself as a 20-year combat veteran in a video posted to social media by the news outlet The Bulwark, said, “I’m burning this flag as a protest to that illegal fascist president that sits in that House,” as he pointed toward the White House from Lafayette Square. The Secret Service said in a statement that it detained the man around 6:15 p.m. ET “for igniting an object” and that he was turned over to U.S. Park Police. Park Police said they arrested the man for violating a statute that prohibits lighting a fire in a public park. The arrest came hours after Trump signed an executive order to crack down on “desecration” of the American flag in connection with inciting violence or violating other laws. The order directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to “vigorously prosecute” people who burn the American flag while engaged in other offenses, and it says she “may pursue litigation to clarify the scope of the First Amendment exceptions in this area.” Secret Service confirmed to Newsweek: The U.S. Secret Service confirmed the initial detention in a statement to Newsweek. “On Aug.25 at approximately 6:15 p.m., the U.S. Secret Service detained an individual in Lafayette Park for igniting an object,” the agency said. “The individual was subsequently turned over to U.S. Park Police as they have jurisdiction. We’d refer you to U.S. Park Police for any charges or additional questions.” The Park Police confirmed that the individual was arrested after being reached for comment by Newsweek, saying, “At about 6:30 pm, the United States Park Police arrested one person in Lafayette Park for a violation of 36 CFR 2.13(a)(1), prohibited fire. All units have cleared the scene.” Under President Trump’s new executive order, this man could face 1-year in jail. This is proving to be very controversial, with some folks claiming flag burning — no matter how distasteful and treacherous — is protected by the First Amendment while others are happy to see flag-burners go to jail. While protecting the First Amendment is valid concern, I truly don’t think our Founders would consider flag-burning a form of “free speech” or “peaceful assembly.” Our flag represents the heart of our nation. Anyone who would burn it is displaying blatant hatred of America and everything our country stands for. For that reason, it makes sense to make it a crime, punishable by jail time. Burning a flag is an act of violence. It is no more speech than burning down a building or murdering someone. If you say you want to do it, it’s speech but the act is not. Common sense. Finally! We need to protect that beautiful flag for which we bled. pic.twitter.com/zx4J8mgvJX — Grizz (@Grizzardofpaws) August 25, 2025 President Trump’s executive order made clear note of this: Our great American Flag is the most sacred and cherished symbol of the United States of America, and of American freedom, identity, and strength.  Over nearly two-and-a-half centuries, many thousands of American patriots have fought, bled, and died to keep the Stars and Stripes waving proudly.  The American Flag is a special symbol in our national life that should unite and represent all Americans of every background and walk of life.  Desecrating it is uniquely offensive and provocative.  It is a statement of contempt, hostility, and violence against our Nation — the clearest possible expression of opposition to the political union that preserves our rights, liberty, and security.  Burning this representation of America may incite violence and riot.  American Flag burning is also used by groups of foreign nationals as a calculated act to intimidate and threaten violence against Americans because of their nationality and place of birth. Notwithstanding the Supreme Court’s rulings on First Amendment protections, the Court has never held that American Flag desecration conducted in a manner that is likely to incite imminent lawless action or that is an action amounting to “fighting words” is constitutionally protected.  See Texas v. Johnson, 491 U.S. 397, 408-10 (1989). My Administration will act to restore respect and sanctity to the American Flag and prosecute those who incite violence or otherwise violate our laws while desecrating this symbol of our country, to the fullest extent permissible under any available authority. What are your thoughts? Do you support prosecuting people for burning the American flag?

Former Kamala Harris running mate and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz went absolutely berserk today during his speech at the DNC summer meeting. In an unhinged rant, Walz mocked Trump supporters as “stupid frickin’ red hat” wearers before escalating things dramatically, suggesting that leftists burn flags with President Trump’s photo on them. Watch for yourself here: Tim Walz is a deeply disturbed individual. Here he is coming unglued over a “stupid frickin’ red hat” and suggesting people burn flags with President Trump’s photo on them. pic.twitter.com/QwMryOCc1c — Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) August 25, 2025 Transcript: Think of how easy it would be to be a d*mn Republican. ‘Oh, what should I wear today? This stupid frickin’ red hat. What should I say today? I don’t know, just make sure it’s cruel. Who do we listen to? That guy — oh, the felon in the White House.’ Yeah, listen to him and that will be fine. Now he’s talking about burning flags. He’s going to have flag burning whatever, because he knows there’s a hell of a lot of flags with his picture on them that are going to get burned. I really wouldn’t recommend taking Tampon Tim’s advice here (or ever, really.) On Monday, President Trump signed an executive order banning burning the American flag under threat of a 1-year jail sentence. More on that here: President Trump Signs Executive Order BANNING American Flag Burning — Severe Penalty! But, Gov. Walz didn't just stop there. Here's a longer clip, where Gov. Walz goes on to refer to the sitting President of the United States Trump as "that thing" in the White House: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz: “Think of how easy it would be to be a d*mn Republican.

The dangerous, experimental COVID-19 vaccine could be completely removed from the market very soon. According to a new report, President Trump and HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are planning to ban the notorious clot shot within a matter of months. Here’s what’s being reported: JUST IN: President Trump and RFK Jr are allegedly planning to BAN the COVID-19 vaccine “within months,” Newsweek reports I hope to GOD this is true. The clot shot SHOULD be banned and pharmaceutical companies should be LIQUIDATED to compensate victims of their lies. pic.twitter.com/rzcTAxRdqn — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) August 25, 2025 BREAKING: President Trump and HHS Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. are allegedly planning to ban the COVID vaccine “within months,” according to an associate of Kennedy’s, per Newsweek. pic.twitter.com/oR2EJ6Y25i — Leading Report (@LeadingReport) August 25, 2025 Now, keep in mind, this claim originates from a doctor and associate of RFK Jr.’s who spoke to the anti-Trump Daily Beast about alleged plans to pull the COVID-19 vaccine. The original Daily Beast report reads: The Trump administration will move to pull the COVID vaccine off the U.S. market “within months,” one of Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s closest associates has told the Daily Beast. Dr. Aseem Malhotra, a British cardiologist who has repeatedly claimed in the face of scientific consensus that the vaccines are more dangerous than the virus, told the Daily Beast that Kennedy’s stance is shared by “influential” members of President Donald Trump’s family. Like Kennedy himself, no Trumps hold any scientific qualifications. Malhotra is a leading adviser to the controversial lobby group Make America Healthy Again (MAHA) Action, which is seen as an external arm of Kennedy’s agenda as Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary. He told the Beast that many of those closest to RFK Jr. have told him they “cannot understand” why the vaccine continues to be prescribed, and that a decision to remove the vaccine from the U.S. market pending further research will come “within months,” even if it is likely to cause “fear of chaos” and bring with it major legal ramifications. “It could [happen] in a number of stages, including learning more about the data,” said Malhotra, who said there was an ongoing review into so-called “vaccine injuries” by the Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP). “But given the increased talk of vaccine injuries in the past few weeks among the administration, it could also come with one clean decision.” Malhotra said skepticism among Kennedy’s circle of the COVID-19 jab is driven by a 2022 paper by a group of physicians and university professors and researchers, which appeared in the journal Vaccine. The peer-reviewed paper examined secondary analysis of “serious adverse events reported in… clinical trials of Pfizer and Moderna mRNA COVID-19 vaccines in adults,” and said that those given the mRNA vaccines had a 16 percent higher risk of “excess serious adverse events” than those in the placebo group. The White House has refused to confirm these claims as anything more than mere speculation. Per Newsweek: The White House denied Malhotra’s claims in a statement to Newsweek. “The Administration is relying on Gold Standard Science and is committed to radical transparency to make decisions that affect all Americans,” White House spokesperson Kush Desai told Newsweek on Monday. “Unless announced by the Administration, however, any discussion about HHS policy should be dismissed as baseless speculation.” However, if true, it would be great news. If these plans are truly not in the works, maybe they should be… Finally. Banning a vaccine that’s been forced on people for years is the kind of accountability and common sense we should have had from the start. About time. — fity.eth (@Fityeth) August 25, 2025 What do you think? Would you support a full ban on the COVID-19 vaccine?

Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook is cooked. President Trump just officially fired Biden-appointed Fed Governor Lisa Cook from her role due to allegations of mortgage fraud. Check it out: President Donald J. Trump relieves Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook of her position pic.twitter.com/tJV8m4mlHW — Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) August 26, 2025 BREAKING: President Trump just FIRED Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook “I have determined that faithfully executing the law requires your immediate removal from office.” pic.twitter.com/oTwk5uPCgx — George (@BehizyTweets) August 26, 2025 About a week ago, Federal Housing Director Bill Pulte criminally referred Lisa Cook to the DOJ over potential mortgage fraud. After learning about this, President Trump demanded her resignation, and Lisa Cook refused. From ABC News: Last week, Trump called on Cook to resign on the same day that Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, posted on X part of an Aug. 15 letter sent to U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi accusing Cook of falsifying bank documents and property records to acquire more favorable loan terms, “potentially committing mortgage fraud,” the letter stated. In a statement provided to ABC News last week, Cook said she learned from the media about Pulte’s letter seeking a criminal referral over the mortgage application, which predated her time with the Federal Reserve. “I have no intention of being bullied to step down from my position because of some questions raised in a tweet,” Cook said in the statement last week. “I do intend to take any questions about my financial history seriously as a member of the Federal Reserve and so I am gathering the accurate information to answer any legitimate questions and provide the facts.” Cook was nominated to serve on the board of governors in 2022 by former President Joe Biden. Her term runs until January 2038. Cook is the first Black woman in history to serve on the Federal Reserve Board of Governors. President Trump had threatened to fire Lisa Cook if she did not resign. As it turns out, he wasn’t bluffing. Per Fox Business: Trump threatened to remove Cook from her role on Friday as she faces mortgage fraud allegations that are under investigation by the Department of Justice (DOJ). The investigation was sparked by a criminal referral filed by Pulte, a staunch ally of Trump’s and a critic of the Federal Reserve. “I’ll fire her if she doesn’t resign,” Trump told reporters on Friday. “What she did was bad.” This is a huge deal. With Lisa Cook out, this opens up another vacancy on the Federal Reserve Board, which is responsible for setting interest rates. Recently, another Biden appointee reserved from the board, and President Trump installed Stephen Miran in that vacancy. Now, the Federal Reserve Board has the potential to become 5-2 Trump-appointed… BREAKING: The US Federal Reserve now stands to become 71% TRUMP-APPOINTED following the firing of Lisa Cook as Democrat Fed Governor. 5-2. – Stephen Miran (new)– Michelle Bowman– Christopher Waller– VACANCY (Lisa Cook)– CHAIRMAN Jerome Powell (2026, assuming he also steps… pic.twitter.com/oSGSB4VX0S — Eric Daugherty (@EricLDaugh) August 26, 2025 BREAKING: The US Federal Reserve now stands to become 71% TRUMP-APPOINTED following the firing of Lisa Cook as Democrat Fed Governor. 5-2. – Stephen Miran (new) – Michelle Bowman – Christopher Waller – VACANCY (Lisa Cook) – CHAIRMAN Jerome Powell (2026, assuming he also steps down as a Governor) Oh, this is so hilarious. The Federal Reserve is becoming as Trumpified as is physically possible. President Trump’s move is also historic — marking the first time a U.S. president has ever fired a Federal Reserve Governor. Bill Pulte, who referred Lisa Cook to the DOJ over mortgage fraud allegations, noted: Trump becomes the first president ever to remove a sitting Federal Reserve governor — Pulte (@pulte) August 26, 2025 In response to the big news, Pulte also released this statement: US FEDERAL HOUSING STATEMENT ON THE FIRING OF LISA COOK: Thank you President Trump for your commitment to stopping mortgage fraud and following the law. If you commit mortgage fraud in America, we will come after you, no matter who you are. William J. PulteDirector — Pulte (@pulte) August 26, 2025 However, it’s likely that President Trump’s firing of Lisa Cook will face legal challenges (as always when President Trump makes big moves..) CNBC has more: President Donald Trump on Monday fired Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, an unprecedented and significant escalation of his attacks on the U.S. central bank’s independence over its refusal to cut interest rates quickly. Trump, in a termination letter to Cook posted on Truth Social, cited allegations that she had made false statements on applications for home mortgages. “In light of your deceitful and potentially criminal conduct in a financial matter, [the American people] cannot and I do not have such confidence in your integrity,” Trump wrote to Cook, who is the first Black woman to serve as a governor of the Federal Reserve “At a minimum, the conduct that issue exhibits the sort of gross negligence in financial transactions that calls into question your competence and trustworthiness as a financial regulator.” Trump’s removal of Cook could be challenged in federal courts and eventually at the Supreme Court.
