Steve Deace has been “one of the most vocal critics of Donald Trump on BlazeTV.” In 2016, he voted for Ted Cruz, and in this year’s primary, he voted for Florida Governor Ron DeSantis. However, following the near-assassination of Donald Trump, Steve did something his audience would be shocked by: He “went out and put a yard Trump sign in his lawn.” What changed?Steve joins Jill Savage on “Blaze News Tonight” to explain his “new perspective.” — (@) Jill begins by reading an excerpt from a tweet Deace recently posted:The reality is for all of his flaws, and for all the things about him and his way of doing things that have both flummoxed and frustrated me, the truth is Trump has done more to fight the darkness seeping into this culture and threatening to overrun it since he came down that escalator in 2016, than The Church has done collectively thus far this century. There's a reason the darkness is shooting at Donald Trump instead of The Church. The biggest problem America has is most of her pastors are unworthy of being shot at.“It feels like this is a very different Deace. What’s going on right now?” Jill asks. “The shooting crystallized something for me,” he says. “When Trump pumped the fist and said ‘fight,’ I frankly thought for the first time in a while that Donald Trump was talking to me — directly to me.” Steve calls Trump’s call to fight as he was being escorted off stage with blood on his face “one of the most badass moments in American history” and “certainly the most iconic imagery since 9/11.” “To see [Trump] there with that natural energy — nothing is scripted, nothing is contrived — and that defiance ... trying to resist what’s happening to this once exceptional and great country” is what convinced Steve that he “[needs] to be in this fight.” “If they’re shooting at the guy, this is clearly where the fight is at,” he tells Jill. “It was not George W. Bush — Mr. Born Again — who recognized Jerusalem as the rightful capital of Israel, appointed the justices that overturned Roe v. Wade ... it was Donald Trump that did those things” and “brought more stability than we’ve had in my lifetime in the Middle East.” “In the end, I want to be where the fight is.”

MSNBC host Joy Reid posted a video of herself working through a bizarre conspiracy theory suggesting that the Secret Service helped former President Donald Trump to create the historic and defiant photo image from the shooting. Reid posted the video on a social media account. She noted that the Biden campaign released a lot of detailed medical information about his condition within minutes of the announcement that he had contracted COVID-19 again. "But when it comes to what happened on Saturday, with former President Donald Trump, this assassination attempt, we know almost nothing about his medical condition," said Reid. "How come no one else has any information about this wound? We still don't know for sure whether Donald Trump was hit by a bullet, whether he was hit by glass fragments, whether he was hit by shrapnel, we don't have those details," she continued. "We know almost nothing! Why? Why don't we know that much?" she asked. She went on to claim that it was unknown where the other three victims of the shooting were standing relative to Trump. "We don't know why for nine full seconds, Donald Trump was allowed to stand back up during an active shooting, an active shooter situation, even though they at that point had said the shooter was down.""They allowed him to stand up in the middle of that, you know, crisis and pose for a photo and fist pump the air so he could get the iconic photo, and then they allowed him to stand up again outside of the SUV instead of just shoving him into the SUV. That seems really unusual."She went on to detail the "hot mess" related to the security failures of the Secret Service and compared the situation of past shootings involving presidents in an attempt to paint this attempt as strange and somehow abnormal. "It's weird, and there doesn't seem to be a whole lot of curiosity about it!" she laughed. "You know, in the media world, my profession. It's weird, right?" Many critics of the former president have noted that there have been few official medical details about his injury released, but only extremists on the fringe have claimed that he was not actually shot. Others latch onto an early report that said Trump's ear was cut by shrapnel from the teleprompter being hit by a bullet, but that report was debunked quickly. Reid was torched by rapper and model Amber Rose after the MSNBC host tried to undermine Rose's speech at the Republican National Convention by attacking her racial identity. Like Blaze News?

We're still about a month away from the next Made by Google hardware event, but Google has jumped the gun today and shown off two new devices early. On Thursday, Google released two videos on YouTube revealing the Pixel 9 Pro and Pixel 9 Pro Fold -- neither of which had been formally announced by the company before today. First up is the Pixel 9 Pro, which is Google's non-folding flagship phone of 2024. Both it and its folding cousin have leaked extensively in recent weeks, so there wasn't much left to spoil. With that said, it's our best look at the new camera module so far: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMVpP-Zam1A Hours later, Google published a second video showing us the Pixel 9 Pro Fold, which features a stacked rear camera array instead of a long camera strip: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NC_A3EHFKF4 Between this video and all of the latest leaks, it's clear that the Pixel 9 Pro Fold is going to be a significant upgrade over the original Pixel Fold. Notably, the 2024 model can open 180 degrees and lie flat on a surface, which the Pixel Fold couldn't quite accomplish. The bezel of the inside screen appears to have been reduced as well, but it's hard to tell. Believe it or not, this is only half of Google's smartphone lineup for this year. Leaked regulatory filings revealed that Google plans to release the Pixel 9, Pixel 9 Pro, Pixel 9 Pro XL, and Pixel 9 Pro Fold later this summer. We also expect to see the Pixel Watch 3 soon. You can tune in live for the full reveals at Made by Google on August 13 at 10:00 a.m. PT / 1:00 p.m. ET. A new page for the Pixel 9 lineup is also live on Google's website as of today.

Rhodri Mawr, known as Rhodri the Great, is one of the most celebrated figures in Welsh history. His reign marked a significant period in the consolidation of Welsh territories and the defense of Wales against external threats. Rhodri's life and legacy offer a crucial glimpse of medieval Welsh politics, warfare, and leadership, highlighting his role as a unifier and protector of his people. Rhodri Mawr, the Great King of Wales Rhodri Mawr was born around 820 AD, a time when Wales was fragmented into several small kingdoms, each ruled by local chieftains and kings. His father, Merfyn Frych, was the king of Gwynedd, one of the most powerful kingdoms in North Wales. Through his mother, Nest ferch Cadell, Rhodri was also connected to the royal line of Powys, another significant Welsh kingdom. This dual lineage positioned Rhodri as a crucial figure in the eventual unification of these territories. Upon the death of his father in 844 AD, Rhodri inherited the kingdom of Gwynedd. He soon demonstrated his prowess as a leader and warrior by successfully defending his realm against Viking invasions, which were a persistent threat during his reign. The Vikings had begun their raids on the British Isles in the late 8th century, and their incursions into Wales increased in the 9th century. One of Rhodri's earliest notable accomplishments was his victory over Gorm, a Danish chieftain, whom he defeated and killed in a battle on Anglesey in 856. In 873, Rhodri achieved further successes against the Vikings, winning battles at Banolau and Ynegydd on Anglesey. Read moreSection: NewsHistory & ArchaeologyFamous PeopleRead Later
