Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump announced his support for legalizing marijuana in the state of Florida, but said that it should be banned from being consumed in public. Trump made the remarks in a post on Truth Social Saturday afternoon in response to Amendment 3, which will be on the ballot this fall. “In Florida, like so many other States that have already given their approval, personal amounts of marijuana will be legalized for adults with Amendment 3,” he said. “Whether people like it or not, this will happen through the approval of the Voters, so it should be done correctly. We need the State Legislature to responsibly create laws that prohibit the use of it in public spaces, so we do not smell marijuana everywhere we go, like we do in many of the Democrat run Cities.” He said that using marijuana should no longer be criminalized in the state of Florida considering that it is legal in some other states.

If passed, estimates show that legalizing marijuana could generate between $200 million and $430 million a year in tax revenues for the state.

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) slammed Vice President Kamala Harris’ “scripted” interview with CNN this week, but gave her credit for telling the truth on one thing: Her “values have not changed.” Cruz made the remarks during an episode of this “Verdict” podcast this week while discussing the Democratic Party presidential nominee’s first interview, which she was unable to do by herself. “Verdict” co-host Ben Ferguson said that “comrade Kamala” wants “a 70% to 80% tax rate, no cash bail, gun confiscation, zero fracking, a ban on gasoline-powered cars.” Cruz said that Harris’ “my values have not changed” line was something that her campaign came up with to be her “lead talking point on any flip-flop that she got pressed” on. “And actually, at some level, that’s the truest statement she made the entire interview because Kamala Harris is a radical leftist,” he said. “She is extreme. And she still believes all this stuff. And you know what? It’s the reason why nobody on the Left is unhappy that she’s suddenly running away from her positions because they know she’s lying.” Tickets for “Am I Racist?” are on sale NOW!

Border Czar Kamala Harris was in charge of this invasion,” he continued. “It happened on her watch, and if, God forbid, she becomes president, it will get worse. And everyone gets the joke. All the leftists know she still believes all this stuff. She just has to say some more conservative things in the campaign to fool the gullible voters, but none of her radical supporters believe for a moment she’s right.” “Her values have not changed,” he added. “She still believes every word of that montage, and God forbid, if she’s in the Oval Office, she’ll do all of that and more. Unlike Joe Biden. Joe Biden is a senile puppet. Kamala Harris is a true believer.” WATCH: Kamala Harris’s new talking point for her flip flops is: “My values have not changed.” That’s the truest statement she’s said. She is still committed to her radical leftist ideas like supporting an 80% tax rate, abolishing ICE, and the Green New Deal.https://t.co/spnPG8fnz1 pic.twitter.com/6E4snR7AEh — Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) August 31, 2024

Podcast giant Joe Rogan slammed billionaire Oprah Winfrey and former first lady Michelle Obama this week for discussing incoming inequality at the Democratic National Convention, noting the sheer hypocrisy of the situation. Rogan made the remarks during his “The Joe Rogan Experience” podcast this week while discussing some of the lunacy that unfolded at the DNC. “How about Oprah?” Rogan said. “Oprah was talking about her and Trump running together, and now she’s speaking to the DNC that he’s a threat to democracy and she’s up there talking about income inequality, like, ‘Hey lady — you’re rich as f***!’ I’m like, ‘How is that equal?’” He said that it was “nuts” how numerous celebrities used to be close friends with Trump, but they now hate him because he’s a Republican and not a Democrat.

Vice President Kamala Harris was slammed on Saturday for promoting a political attack against former President Donald Trump surrounding his recent visit to Arlington National Cemetery while repeating debunked lies and ignoring the reason that Trump was there. “As vice president, I have had the privilege of visiting Arlington National Cemetery several times,” Harris, the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, said. “It is not a place for politics.” “And yet, as was reported this week, Donald Trump’s team chose to film a video there, resulting in an altercation with cemetery staff,” she claimed. “Let me be clear: the former president disrespected sacred ground, all for the sake of a political stunt.” She also repeated the false claim that Trump “called our fallen service members ‘suckers’ and ‘losers’ and disparaged Medal of Honor recipients.” Nineteen officials, including 13 from Trump’s Paris trip, debunked the anonymous story that claimed Trump called soldiers “suckers” and “losers.” Trump visited ANC this week to commemorate the lives of the 13 U.S. soldiers who were killed during an Islamic terrorist suicide bombing in 2021 during the Biden-Harris administration’s disastrous withdraw from Afghanistan, which Harris personally signed off on. Harris received widespread backlash online for attacking Trump for honoring those who were killed under the command of the Biden-Harris administration. Tickets for “Am I Racist?” are on sale NOW! Buy here for a theater near you. “Kamala Harris bragged about being the last person in the room with Joe Biden when they decided on their terrible Afghanistan withdrawal plan,” said Trump spokesperson Karoline Levitt. “Kamala’s stupidity led to one of the most embarrassing events in American history and 13 brave US soldiers being killed.” “She has never said their names. She has never reached out to their families,” she added. “For this alone, Kamala does not deserve to be elected. Kamala has already proven that she would be a dangerously incompetent Commander in Chief.” You are responsible for the deaths of the Abbey Gate 13. You let in the murderers of Jocelyn Nungaray, Laken Riley and Rachel Morin. You have trafficked more children into America than any person on earth. You have never once met with the families of your victims. HEARTLESS. https://t.co/TwFHiBiURe — Stephen Miller (@StephenM) August 31, 2024 The Biden-Harris campaign just two months ago used footage & images (some up-close) of U.S. military cemetery graves, of American flag-draped caskets, of gravestones of U.S. troops, & of a grieving woman on an American flag-draped casket to attack Trump.pic.twitter.com/VF1WEBB6Ld https://t.co/K4uMzfbRfu — Jerry Dunleavy IV ??

The worker was reportedly brushed aside so Trump’s team could stay with him. Trump spokesperson Steven Cheung said that the cemetery worker was “clearly suffering from a mental health episode.” Trump campaign co-manager Chris LaCivita, who was awarded a Purple Heart for injuries he sustained while serving in the U.S. Marine Corps during the Gulf War in 1991, said that the cemetery worker was “a disgrace and does not deserve to represent the hallowed grounds of Arlington National Cemetery.” The altercation was reported to the police, but the cemetery worker did not press charges. Cheung posted a statement that Trump’s team received from ANC about media guidance and rules surrounding the event, saying that Trump was allowed to have his media team with him. “Only former President Trump may have an official photographer and/or videographer outside of the main media pool,” the statement said. “If any of the other attendees DVs would like to bring media, they must arrive at 7:00 a.m. and be incorporated into the press pool. We recommend against bringing additional media due to limited space available in the press pool.” Furthermore, President Joe Biden, while serving as vice president in the Obama administration, had his media team with him while visiting ANC’s Section 60 in 2010. Biden subsequently used the footage in an advertisement for his 2020 presidential campaign. Gold Star families who attended the event with Trump said in a statement that they gave Trump’s team permission to be with them as they visited Section 60 and to take photos and record video. They specifically mentioned that Trump and his team showed the highest level of respect to their fallen sons and daughters. “We would like to express our heartfelt thanks and appreciation to President Donald J. Trump for his presence at the recent Section 60 gathering, honoring our children and their fallen brothers and sisters,” the families said in a statement. “On the three-year anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing, the president and his team conducted themselves with nothing but the utmost respect and dignity for all of our Service members, especially our beloved children.” “We had given our approval for President Trump’s official videographer and photographer to attend the event, ensuring these sacred moments of remembrance were respectfully captured and so we can cherish these memories forever,” they concluded. “We are deeply grateful to the president for taking the time to honor our children and for standing alongside us in our grief, offering his unwavering support during such a difficult time. His compassion and respect meant more than words can express.” Biden did not attend the ceremony of the 13 American soldiers who were killed during his withdrawal — a withdrawal that Vice President Kamala Harris signed off on — and instead opted to go on vacation in Delaware. Harris also did not attend the ceremony.

Liberal comedian Bill Maher slammed Vice President Kamala Harris and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for  “insulting [his] intelligence” during their controversial CNN interview this week. Maher made the remarks Friday evening on HBO’s “Real Time” while talking about the interview in which the Democratic Party’s presidential and vice presidential nominees made numerous false statements during a softball interview with host Dana Bash. “I don’t know why we ever thought she was as bad as people thought she was,” he said. “It was like Biden had that one bad night, she had a bad three years.” He said that both Walz and Harris were “insulting my intelligence” with some of the absurd claims that they made during the interview. He also slammed Walz for being “a huge liar” over countless issues and stories that he has told. “When [CNN anchor Dana Bash] said what did you say when Biden called you and said he wasn’t running. ‘Well, I immediately thought of him first,'” Maher mocked Harris as he rolled his eyes. “I mean, fracking … Dana Bash had her dead to rights. It was like, ‘You said this, I have the quote. I’m reading it to you. You said there should be a ban on fracking.’ Why can’t they just go, ‘Yeah, you know what? I got it wrong.’” Tickets for “Am I Racist?” are on sale NOW! Buy here for a theater near you. Maher said that it was weird that Harris kept talking about her candidacy being a “new way forward” given the fact that she is effectively the incumbent candidate. Maher added that it was “odd” that Harris needed an “emotional support VP” with her during the interview as she was unable to do it by herself. He also repeatedly mocked the interview set-up with Harris and her “emotional support VP.” “He was just sitting there for a very long time without saying anything,” he said. “He was just nodding while she did all the talking.”
