They may have shared stages worldwide for almost four decades‚ but Kerry King isn't losing any sleep about not hanging out with his former Slayer bandmate Tom Araya

The Left has gone insane over Tucker Carlson’s interview with Russian President Putin. It’s not a big deal‚ and Tucker will interview anyone. However‚ the Left has prohibited American from hearing anything Putin has to say. Erin Burnett’s vicious diatribe is a good example of what Democrats are saying. “Putin is trying to court the […] The post Democrats Completely Melt Down Over Tucker’s Putin Interview appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

Former President Donald Trump reportedly met with Republican National Committee Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel on Monday — just one day after Trump said in an interview that he would likely recommend changes in the RNC. Trump and McDaniel met for a discussion at the GOP frontrunner’s Mar-a-Lago estate‚ two people familiar with the meeting told POLITICO. After the meeting‚ Trump posted on his Truth Social account‚ praising his “friend” McDaniel for her past work helping him win Michigan in 2016. He then wrote that he will soon make “recommendations for RNC Growth.” “Things are looking great in the Presidential Race of 2024 against Crooked Joe Biden. We have Leads‚ in many cases substantial‚ in virtually every Head-to-Head Poll. The Primary seems to be over‚ but I’ll be going to South Carolina next week to finish off a very unpopular Candidate‚” Trump began his post. “On Thursday‚ I’m heading to Nevada for the Nevada Caucus‚ where there are 26 Delegates – Hopefully‚ we’ll get most of them‚” he continued. “In my successful run in 2016‚ the State of Michigan really came through – First time in Decades that it was won by a Republican‚ and it was headed up by my friend Ronna McDaniel. Ronna is now Head of the RNC‚ and I’ll be making a decision the day after the South Carolina Primary as to my recommendations for RNC Growth.” The South Carolina Republican primary will take place on February 24 as Trump seeks to secure another victory over former South Carolina Governor Nikki Haley‚ the last candidate standing in the way of Trump’s third nomination. Trump currently leads Haley in South Carolina by 27 points‚ according to the Real Clear Politics polling average. Trump’s meeting with the RNC chairwoman and his follow-up post came just a day after Fox News aired an interview with the former president where Trump was asked by host Maria Bartiromo about McDaniel. “I think she did great when she ran Michigan for me. I think she did OK‚ initially‚ in the RNC. I would say right now‚ there’ll probably be some changes made‚” Trump said. The former president has also criticized the RNC for hosting debates for which he declined to take the stage. Overall‚ the RNC organized four debates that featured GOP candidates who sought to unseat Trump as the party’s frontrunner. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP McDaniel was handpicked by Trump to run the RNC after his 2016 victory over Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton‚ but the RNC chairwoman has recently faced opposition after overseeing Trump’s 2020 election loss and an underwhelming performance by Republicans in the 2022 midterm elections. McDaniel survived a heated re-election bid as she faced a challenge from attorney Harmeet Dhillon last January. While Dhillon gained some momentum during her attempt to oust McDaniel from leadership‚ McDaniel ultimately maintained the support of a majority of the RNC’s 168 voting members via a secret ballot vote.

Former President Donald Trump said Monday he wants a debate with President Joe Biden months ahead of the end of the primary season and the start of the general election. Trump challenged Biden on Monday during an appearance on The Dan Bongino Show. After winning contests in Iowa and New Hampshire‚ Trump is still facing a challenge from his former U.N. ambassador‚ Nikki Haley‚ in the GOP primary. But he has his sights set on Biden. “He can’t do it‚ because he can’t talk. He can’t do anything. He’s ruining our country. And I don’t think he’s going to run — I don’t know if it’s donors or otherwise. It might be his family‚ it might be something‚” said Trump‚ according to the New York Post. “I’d like to debate him now because we should debate for the good of the country.” Biden responded to Trump while speaking with reporters in Las Vegas. “If I were him‚ I’d want to debate me‚ too. He’s got nothing else to do‚” said Biden. The president did not say whether he would accept the invitation to debate. Trump refused to take part in a series of GOP primary debates‚ posting on Truth Social in August that “the public knows who I am &; what a successful Presidency I had.” “I WILL THEREFORE NOT BE DOING THE DEBATES!” he wrote. During an interview with Fox News in June‚ he asked host Bret Baier: “Why would I allow people at 1 or 2% and 0% to be hitting me with questions all night?” In a hypothetical Trump v. Biden matchup in the general election‚ the former president has been outpolling the current president across several polls. The Real Clear Politics polling average shows Trump leading Biden by more than two points‚ 46.7 to 44.6. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The most recent poll in the average‚ a survey by NBC News‚ shows Biden polling at the lowest approval rating over his term as the president faces stiff opposition from voters. Just 37% of voters approve of the job Biden is doing as president versus 60% who disapprove‚ according to the poll. The poll showed that voters trust Trump over Biden to handle a variety of issues. Respondents to the poll said Trump is stronger than Biden on border security 57% to 22%‚ handling the economy 55% to 33%‚ dealing with crime 50% to 29%‚ and improving the United States’ standing in the world 47% to 36%. Biden led Trump slightly on the issue of protecting democracy‚ 43% to 41%. The president also held an edge over Trump on abortion (44%-32%) and protecting the rights of immigrants (48%-31%).

A federal appeals court on Tuesday ruled that former President Donald Trump does not have presidential immunity from prosecution of alleged criminal acts relating to 2020 election interference. The appeal was made to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit by the Trump team in connection to special counsel Jack Smith’s election interference case in the U.S. District Court in Washington‚ D.C. “We have balanced former President Trump’s asserted interests in executive immunity against the vital public interests that favor allowing this prosecution to proceed‚” the three-judge panel opinion said. “We conclude that ‘[c]oncerns of public policy‚ especially as illuminated by our history and the structure of our government’ compel the rejection of his claim of immunity in this case‚” the panel said‚ upholding a trial judge’s earlier ruling. The panel is composed of two judges appointed by Democrats and one appointed by a Republican. CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP The former president is expected to appeal the ruling to the U.S. Supreme Court‚ which is part of a larger effort to slow down Smith’s case against the former president. Smith wants the trial to move ahead as soon as possible‚ seemingly trying to avoid the possible outcome of Trump — the Republican nominee frontrunner — winning the 2024 election. The U.S. Supreme Court could in theory reject to hear the question on immunity and the appeals court’s decision would stand. But if the high court does take up the case‚ the decision could derail Smith’s case or delay it past the 2024 election. Following the appeal decision‚ legal analyst and attorney Jonathan Turley emphasized to Fox News that the Supreme Court doesn’t share the same “urgency” as Smith‚ regarding the case. “The interesting dynamic about this case is that Jack Smith has been telling every court that ‘it’s absolutely urgent that we move this trial forward’ and he made it clear that he wants this president tried and convicted before the election‚” Turley said‚ Newsweek reported. “The Supreme Court clearly didn’t share that urgency‚ it refused to do that‚ and so it’s not clear they’re gonna feel even greater urgency now.” In theory‚ if Trump won the White House‚ the Department of Justice could dismiss the charges‚ which Trump has argued are part of a “witch-hunt” and clear political targeting. Or‚ as president‚ he could pardon himself. This is a breaking story‚ refresh for updates.
