Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC) said on Sunday that voters do not care about former President Donald Trump’s legal woes because they are focused on issues that impact them. Scott made the remarks during a CBS News interview on “Face The Nation” with Robert Costa when asked about the amount of time that Trump is spending in the courtroom while on the campaign trail‚ and whether that would burden Republicans in the general election. “This has only exposed the two-tiered justice system that many Americans fear‚” Scott said. “You have a justice system that hunts Republicans‚ while protecting Democrats. Bob‚ one of the most compelling pieces of evidence towards this fact is Special Counsel Hur’s report that said that absolutely without any question‚ Joe Biden mishandled classified sensitive material. At the same time‚ you have courts actually targeting and running after Republicans. Not just however‚ the former president‚ but whether it’s pro-life activists or folks showing up at school board meetings‚ being referred to by this Department of Justice as domestic terrorists. We have a two-tiered justice system that is being exposed.” Scott‚ when asked whether the Republican National Committee should be involved in helping Trump pay for his legal expenses‚ said: “I can only tell you that without any question‚ when you look at the two-tiered justice system that we have … I think it’s important for us to note that without any question‚ the American people are very concerned about how that would impact their lives.” “Their issues are very clear by the way‚” he added. “The American people are more focused on their future than Donald Trump’s past. What they’re more focused on is making sure that our southern border is secured. We’re looking at almost 10 million illegal crossings by the election. The American people aren’t asking the questions about legal challenges. The American people are asking questions about economic challenges. When two-thirds of Americans according to a few polls‚ say that they don’t have $1‚000 in their savings account. Joe Biden’s inflation has also increased interest rates that has decimated savings and investments for people living paycheck to paycheck. These are the top issues that Americans are talking about. They’re not talking about legal challenges. They’re talking about their challenges across a kitchen table.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP WATCH:

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) said over the weekend that Russian President Vladimir Putin would pay a “heavy price” for allegedly murdering Russian opposition leader Alexei Navalny‚ who was known for leading anti-corruption efforts in the country. “If you’re Putin‚ I want you to know we’re not going to pull the plug on Ukraine‚” Graham said. “We’re going to come after you. We’re going to make your country a state sponsor of terrorism‚ you’re gonna pay a heavy price for murdering this brave man.” Graham made the remarks during a Sunday CBS News interview with Robert Costa on “Face The Nation” when asked about support for another bipartisan bill that lawmakers are working on to address immigration and provide foreign aid to several countries‚ including Ukraine. “I spoke to President Trump earlier in the week about making the aid to Ukraine a loan. This was his idea‚ not mine‚” Graham said. “You know‚ we did lend-lease to Britain. We’re $34 trillion in debt. Ukraine has minerals‚ have a lot of resources. Israel has a strong economy. They’d been hurt badly by October the 7th. Taiwan is a pretty rich nation. Why don’t we do this‚ make a favorable loan to all three of these allies? Let them pay us back when they can‚ if they can‚ because we’re 34 trillion in debt. That’s the Trump idea.” “If you embrace that‚ I think you’ll get a lot of votes in the House and the Senate‚” he continued. “President Trump says let’s wait on the border. With all due respect‚ we cannot wait. It’s a national security nightmare. A 2‚000% increase in people on the terrorist watch list coming across the border. In two years‚ 5 billion people could be killed by the amount of fentanyl coming across our southern border. The largest loss of life of young people in America is fentanyl poisoning coming across the southern border. So I don’t want to wait‚ I want to act now on the border. I want to turn the aid package into a loan. That makes perfect sense to me. And I think the bipartisan Problem Solvers group has an idea that will sell.” WATCH:

Don’t Miss Your Opportunity To Be A Tourist in Japan If you ever get a chance to visit Japan‚ we urge you to do that. Although overseas trips can be expensive‚ the cultural experience can’t be imitated. Living the actual experience of walking the Tokyo streets is something that you won’t find sitting in your armchair watching tourism videos. In Japan‚ they build special tunnels to protect tortoises from the dangers of railway switching stations. The people are friendly‚ even through a language barrier. It is a unique experience that offers a lifetime of memories. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here and here.

There's No Point Negotiating With Hamas‚ Says ... Egypt?

Rep. Rashida Tlaib – the Democrat from Michigan – turned against her own party's leader and called on voters to go against President Joe Biden in the state's upcoming primary. Tlaib urged Michigan Democrats to vote "uncommitted" in the state's Democratic presidential primary. Tlaib – who is Palestinian American – is going on a campaign against Biden over his administration's handling of the war between Israel and Hamas. "It is important‚ as you all know‚ to not only march against the genocide‚ not only make sure that we're calling our members of Congress and local electeds and passing city resolutions all throughout our country – it is also important to create a voting block‚ something that is a bullhorn to say enough is enough‚" Tlaib said as she stood outside the Ford Civic Center in Dearborn‚ Michigan. "We don’t want a country that supports wars‚ and bombs and destruction‚ we want to support life‚" Tlaib continued. "We want to stand up for every single life killed in Gaza.""I want you to think of all of the amazing young children and the people‚ again‚ lives were lost in Gaza. This is the way you can raise our voices. Don’t make us even more invisible. Right now‚ we feel completely neglected and just unseen by our government. If you want us to be louder‚ then come here and vote uncommitted‚" the progressive politician proclaimed. Tlaib did not mention that Hamas terrorists started the war by invading Israel on Oct. 7‚ took an estimated 240 hostages‚ and murdered approximately 1‚200 Israelis – including hundreds of civilians as well as children. — (@) The video was shared by the Listen to Michigan campaign‚ which has a self-described mission of strongly rejecting "Biden’s funding war and genocide in Gaza" and sending the president a "clear message" in Michigan's Democratic primary by voting "uncommitted." The pro-Palestinian organization is so committed to opposing U.S. aid to Israel that it even hints at enabling former President Donald Trump to win the key state of Michigan in the 2024 presidential election. "Trump only won Michigan in 2016 by about 10‚000 votes‚" the Listen to Michigan website reads. "Uncommitted Michigan Democrats opposed to Biden’s policy in Gaza can demonstrate that we hold his margin of victory for re-election. Biden must earn our vote through a dramatic change in policy.""President Biden has been a successful candidate in the past by representing a broad coalition‚ but right now he’s not representing the vast majority of Democrats who want a ceasefire and an end to his funding of Israel’s war in Gaza‚" the site states. "He’s not representing the young people who put him in office and turned out in the midterms — and are now out protesting his policies in the streets."Tlaib has been a regular critic of the Biden administration's role in the Israel-Hams war. Tlaib told Biden in December‚ "I say this over and over again because I hope you hear me. You might — you must listen to the voices of the majority of Americans and the majority of Democrats‚ who worked their butt off to get you elected. You have to represent all of us‚ Mr. President. Not just some. Call for a ceasefire now.”The Michigan Democratic primary is on Feb. 27.Like Blaze News?
