Manhattan advertising mogul Donny Deutsch claimed on MSNBC’s ‘Morning Joe‘ on Thursday that Donald Trump aims to exploit the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to manipulate news coverage and will also unleash the military upon the American people, among other outlandish claims.
Deutsch, a regular show participant, suggested that if Trump wins the election, he will have the FCC report directly to him to manage news programs’ coverage. “He says what he’s going to do. What he’s going to do to your point, Joe, is have the FCC report to him so he will be able to control shows like this. He wants the FCC to report to him,” Deutsch said.
Pointing to a recent interview Trump gave to TIME magazine’s Eric Cortellesa, Deutsch also claimed, “He wants to bring the Insurrection Act back so he can turn military troops on his own people. He wants to weaponize, as you said, the Justice Department to go after his enemies,” Deutsch continued. He then bizarrely claimed that Trump “wants to put women on a registry in red states for abortion.”
WHAT TRUMP ACTUALLY SAID.
In January, Trump lashed out at CNN and NBC for refusing to cover his victory speech after the Iowa caucuses. However, he never suggested using the FCC to control the media. “NBC and CNN refused to air my victory speech. I think of it because they are crooked. They’re dishonest, and frankly, they should have their licenses or whatever they have. Take it away,” Trump said.
Deutsch’s allegations regarding Trump’s recent TIME interview are simply not true either. In the interview, Trump expressed his intention to use the military, mainly the National Guard, if possible, to go after and detain illegal aliens — not American citizens.
Writes Cortellessa: “For an operation of that scale, Trump says he would rely mostly on the National Guard to round up and remove undocumented migrants throughout the country. ‘If they weren’t able to, then I’d use [other parts of] the military,’ he says. When I ask if that means he would override the Posse Comitatus Act—an 1878 law that prohibits the use of military force on civilians—Trump seems unmoved by the weight of the statute. ‘Well, these aren’t civilians,’ he says. ‘These are people that aren’t legally in our country.'”
Furthermore, while he expressed his belief that it would be acceptable for states with anti-abortion laws to prosecute women who violate them, he never once made mention of a registry, let alone wanting to put women on one.
“More than 20 states now have full or partial abortion bans, and Trump says those policies should be left to the states to do what they want, including monitoring women’s pregnancies,” Cortellessa writes. “’I think they might do that,’ he says. When I ask whether he would be comfortable with states prosecuting women for having abortions beyond the point the laws permit, he says, ‘It’s irrelevant whether I’m comfortable or not. It’s totally irrelevant, because the states are going to make those decisions.'”

Donald Trump’s New York election interference trial continues on Friday with evidence from Douglas Daus, the forensic analyst who found more than 39,000 contacts on the phone of Trump’s disgraced ex-lawyer, Michael Cohen. Among the findings were texts with Trump allies, including Hope Hicks, former White House communications director, and secret recordings from the time of Trump’s 2016 campaign.
George Soros-backed Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg asserts that Trump conspired with Michael Cohen and David Pecker to suppress damaging stories that could impact Trump’s campaign. This alleged conspiracy led to Stormy Daniels being paid $130,000 not to go public with claims of a sexual encounter she supposedly had with Trump. Daniels publicly denied having an affair with the former president before reversing her position.
Douglas Daus, a forensic analyst for Bragg’s office, will be cross-examined on over 39,000 contacts, messages, and secret recordings extracted from a phone belonging to Cohen, a convicted perjurer. However, the recordings are not necessarily helpful to the prosecution. They suggest Cohen, the star witness against Trump, was the driving force behind the settlement, with Trump unclear on the details and unhappy that a deal was being made.
‘THE RIGHT THING TO DO.’
One of the recordings shows Cohen discussing the settlement with Hollywood entertainment lawyer Keith Davidson, who represented Daniels. Cohens tells the lawyer that Trump has complained many times about the settlement. “I can’t even tell you how many times he said to me, you know, ‘I hate the fact that we did it,’” and “my comment to him was ‘but every person you spoke to said it was the right thing to do,’” Cohen says.
Davidson, who has testified the settlement to Daniels was not “hush money,” was questioned on whether he was concerned his efforts to secure a settlement for Daniels ahead of the 2016 election could be regarded as an attempt at “extortion.”
Davidson denied the extortion accusation, though one of Cohen’s recordings shows him complaining that if Trump “loses this election… we all lose all f**king leverage.”

Fulton County DistrictAttorneyFani Willis possibly indicted former President Donald J. Trump and over a dozen other co-defendants without proper jurisdiction. An attorney for one of Trump‘s co-defendants, Harrison Floyd, contends violations of the law related to state elections are under the purview of the state board of elections and not the Fulton County D.A.’s office.
According to Floyd‘s attorney, Chris Kachouroff, Willis’s overall RICO prosecution is predicated on election violations, which means its proper jurisdiction should originate with the state’s board of elections. Kachouroff, in a motion filed with Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, argues that Willis has overstepped her legal jurisdiction in prosecuting the election-related crimes without a referral from Georgia‘s State Election Board. By resting original jurisdiction with the State Election Board, Kachouroff says “fragmentation of investigative activities” is avoided — meaning the state’s election authority would decide whether charges would be referred to Georgia’s Attorney General or one of 54 district attorneys.
Kachouroff’s initial motion questioning Willis‘s jurisdiction was denied by Judge McAfee, with the judge contending that the D.A. has “shared jurisdiction.” However, McAfee later granted a motion for immediate review of his decision by the Georgia Court of Appeals. If the appellate court — or the Georgia State Supreme Court — agrees with Kachouroff’s legal theory on the jurisdiction, most-if-not-all of the charges against Trump and his co-defendants could be thrown out.
Floyd is accused of soliciting false statements from witnesses, alleging election and ballot fraud. This charge stems from his interactions with Fulton County election worker Ruby Freeman. In a separate civil case, former federal prosecutor and New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani was ordered to pay $148 million for defaming Freeman and Wandrea “Shaye” Moss. Giuliani claimed the two committed ballot fraud during the 2020 election.

Ride-sharing giant Lyft has announced a partnership aiming to significantly increase voter turnout among young people ahead of the November elections. The partnership involves working alongside other companies, including Levi Strauss & Co., MTV, and Showtime, to create an initiative to bolster voting within the community college demographic. It aims to increase voter turnout by 500,000 by 2028.
“One of the most important things you can do to keep the community active and engaged is to make sure they have easy access to the polls,” said Lyft CEO David Risher, announcing the Community College Commitment initiative. “If you start voting when you’re young, it becomes part of your life. It’s a habit to build,” he said.
The Community College Commitment will produce a Get Out The Vote community college competition. Community colleges hosting registration drives and other voter events will be entered into a contest to win a live on-campus concert set for October 29 — Vote Early Day.
Additionally, Lyft announced plans to offer discounted rides to polling stations on election day earlier this week.
Despite its claims that the Community College Commitment is nonpartisan, it is apparent that the company’s ultimate goal is to increase voter turnout for Democrats. A poll conducted prior to the 2020 election found that 70 percent of college students planned on voting for Joe Biden, and 81 percent had an unfavorable view of then-President Donald Trump.
Lyft will provide special ride codes to potential voters lacking transportation in partnership with various non-profits, including the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP). It is also partnering with the League of Women Voters, When We All Vote (founded by Michelle Obama), and VoteRiders — all left-wing organizations openly opposed to Republican efforts to protect election integrity.

The sixth day of the Manhattan-based Trump hush moneytrial has come to a close. Despite havingnowheardfrom a half-dozen witnesses, the prosecutors in District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s office have yet to present compelling evidence of any crime being committed. The lack of evidence hasn’t gone unnoticed, even by corporate media outlets like CNN. During a Thursday segment, CNN’s political director David Chalian said he’s seen “precious little evidence” of Trump’s involvement in Michael Cohen’s payment deals with Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal.
MORE GAG ORDER VIOLATIONS?
Prosecutors started the day in court by presenting Democrat–alignedJudgeJuanMerchan with four new accusations of former President Trump violating his court-issued gag order. “His statements are corrosive to this proceeding and the fair administration of justice,” prosecutor Chris Conroy told Judge Merchan Thursday morning. He added: “The defendant is doing everything he can to make this case about politics.”
Todd Blanche, a member of Trump’s defense team, fired back at the prosecution. He argued that Trump has a right to defend himself against public statements made by the likes of Michael Cohen and that Cohen and Stormy Daniels are “not people who need to be protected.”
“Cohen has been inviting and almost daring President Trump to respond to almost everything he’s saying,” Trump’s defense attorney told Judge Merchan. One of the alleged gag order violations cited by the prosecution was a comment where Trump referred to witness David Pecker as “nice.” Blanche noted, regarding the comment: “There’s no animosity between the two of them. There’s no threatening, menacing statements.”
“It’s not about just Mr. Pecker, Judge Merchan responded. He continued: “It’s about what the other witnesses see. It affects those witnesses as well.”
There was no immediate ruling on whether Trump violated the gag order in the four instances cited by prosecutors.
KEITH DAVIDSON BACK ON THE STAND.
The trial resumed after the gag order hearing, with Hollywood entertainment lawyer Keith Davidson returning to the stand for testimony directed by the prosecution. Prosecutor Joshua Steinglass received unexpected pushback from Davidson over his reference to the payments as “hush money.” Addressing the payments, the entertainment lawyer told Steinglass, “It wasn’t a ‘payout,’ and it wasn’t ‘hush money.’ It was consideration in a civil settlement.” Davidson told the prosecution that he’d never use the term “hush money.”
In another strange moment in the prosecution’s case, they opened the door to evidence that Michael Cohen continued to worry about statements made by Stormy Daniels well after the 2016election. This directly undermines the core of their case that the payments were part of a plot to interfere in the presidential election.
At the direction of the protection, Davidson went through texts with Cohen just before Stormy Daniels’s 2018 appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!The texts between Cohen and Davidson mostly revolved around a statement from Daniels that denied she ever had a relationship with Trump. Regarding the statement, Davidson said: “I think it’s technically true.”
The remainder of Davidson’s testimony was a relatively unrevealing back and forth with prosecutors about the nuances of the English language and terms like “hush money,” “payout,” and “affair.”
‘NO INTERACTIONS WITH TRUMP.’
Keith Davidson’s cross-examination went far better for the defense than his initial testimony did for the prosecution. Trump‘s defense attorney, Emil Bove, handled the initial questioning of Davidson, immediately asking the entertainment lawyer if, before Thursday, he’d ever been in a room with Donald Trump. “I have had no personal interactions with Donald Trump,” Davidson responded. Bove spent most of the early stages of Davidson’s cross-examination focusing on the lawyer’s work before 2016. Davidson acknowledged he’d been retained in 2011 by Daniels’s agent to have a story removed from a gossip site.
Trump’s defense attorney then zeroed in on Davidson’s conversation with Cohen regarding Trump’s post-2016 election plans. According to Davidson, Cohen bragged that he may become the President-Elect’s chief of staff or even the U.S. Attorney General. It appears the purpose of this line of question is to show Cohen as someone prone to delusions of grandeur, often overstating his role in Trump’s personal, business, and political activities.
HUSH MONEY OR EXTORTION PLOT?
Next, Bove moved on to the topic of “extortion.” He pressed Davidson: “In your mind, you were concerned about avoiding creating evidence of extortion, correct?” The entertainment lawyer responded, “Not particularly.” However, Bove then raised a 2012 extortion investigation into Davidson involving a sex tape allegedly featuring Hulk Hogan. Davison insisted he did nothing illegal in that case, stating: “I did everything I could to make sure my activities were lawful.”
Bove then pivoted to the 2016 presidential election, addressing Davidson’s claim that he didn’t use the political contest as leverage in his negotiations with Cohen. “You made no threats to Michael Cohen related to the 2016 election, is that the answer?” Trump’s defense attorney asked, with Davidson responding: “I made no threats to anyone.”
“You never linked these negotiations to the 2016 election with anyone. Is that your testimony?” Bove countered. The entertainment lawyer replied, “That’s fair.”
When asked about his involvement with payout plots involving other celebrities, including Charlie Sheen, Manny Pacquiao, and Tila Tequila, Davidson claimed his memory was “fuzzy.” This likely further bolstered the defense’s contention that Davidson and his clients had more sinister motives behind their claims, bordering on extortion.
ANOTHER BLOW TO BRAGG’S CASE.
In another blow to District Attorney Alvin Bragg‘s case, Davidson acknowledged—under cross-examination—that Trump never signed the non-disclosure agreement with Daniels. During earlier testimony, Davidson claimed that references to “DD” or “David Dennison” were stand-ins for Trump.
After Bove concluded his cross-examination of Davidson, the court took a short break. Alvin Bragg, perhaps surveying the damage his prosecution has taken, entered the court following the recess for the first time during the trial. The District Attorney and Trump exchanged brief glances at each other.
During a brief redirect, Bove asked Davidson if he recalled telling Cohen that if Trump lost the election, Daniels would lose her leverage. Davidson said he did recall the conversion. The defense then played a recording of Davidson telling Cohen: “If he loses this election, and he’s going to lose, we all lose all f**king leverage.”

Marcela Escobari, Biden‘s new migration advisor, is a foreign-born, open-borders advocate who is unlikely to advance or support any measures to seriously stem the flow of migrants into the U.S.
Born in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, Escobari is an international development specialist by trade. She served as the Assistant Administrator of the Latin American and Caribbean Bureau at the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) under Barack Obama. She again assumed that position in the Biden government in 2022 following a stint at the globalist, pro-open borders Brookings Institute.
Addressing Congress last year, Escobari bragged about the Latin American bureau’s role in doubling the number of H-2 visa migrants from Guatemala, Honduras, and El Salvador.
“We also support legal pathways, so that people can migrate in conditions of dignity, safety, and mutual benefit,” Escobari said. “USAID’s work with the ministries of labor in Guatemala and Honduras and the ministry of foreign affairs in El Salvador has more than doubled the number of H-2 visa recipients from these countries to almost 20,000 and reduced processing times threefold.”
Prior to her second stint at USAID, Escobari may have also had a hand in shaping the Biden regime’s immigration policies that led to the current migrant crisis, co-leading the Development, Global Health and Refugee policy working group for Biden’s 2020 campaign.
While her work at USAID has involved addressing issues with border enforcement within Latin American countries, she demonstrates Biden’s commitment to “expanding lawful pathways” for more migrants to enter the country, an NSC spokesman told Axios.

President Biden has sparked controversy by branding Japan, a longstanding U.S. ally, as “xenophobic” in an off-camera speech at a fundraiser marking the commencement of Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month. Biden’s comments contrast starkly with his affirmations of “unbreakable” ties with Japan during a state dinner with Prime Minister Fumio Kishida just weeks prior.
In his critique, President Biden grouped Japan with China and Russia, attributing their poor economic performance to an unwillingness to welcome immigrants. According to Biden, America’s economic growth is significantly driven by its immigrant population. While immigrants may not be contributing to actual economic growth — inflation continues to be a central problem plaguing the Biden economy — they are certainly contributing to superficial job growth.
“You know, one of the reasons why our economy is growing is because of you and many others — why — because we welcome immigrants,” said Biden. “Why is China stalling so bad economically? Why is Japan having trouble? … Because they’re xenophobic. They don’t want immigrants,” he continued. “Immigrants are what makes us strong! Not a joke. That’s not hyperbole. Because we have an influx of workers who want to be here and contribute.”
It remains to be seen how these off-camera comments might impact U.S.-Japanese relations. Japan is a crucial U.S. ally in the Pacific, and good relations with the nation would be critical to any future conflict with China.

Mark Pomerantz, an attorney formerly with the ManhattanDistrict Attorney‘s office, refused to acknowledge whether he broke the law or violated anyone’s constitutionalrights while he investigated former President Donald J. Trump over alleged hush money payments. In a never-before-seen video of Pomerantz during a Congressional deposition last summer, the former Manhattan D.A. employee pleaded the fifth to a series of probing questions from Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL).
POMERANTZ TAKES THE FIFTH.
“And did you knowingly break any laws when investigating President Trump?” Gaetz asked Pomerantz. The attorney formerly with the Manhattan D.A‘.s office responded, “Same response,” referring to an earlier invocation of his Fifth Amendment rights. At the start of the questioning, Pomerantz invoked his “Privilege against self-incrimination.”
“Did you break any laws when you worked at the Manhattan District Attorney’s office?” Gaetz asked. Pomerantz again invoked his Fifth Amendment rights, stating: “Same response.”
Gaetz pushed further, questioning Pomerantz: “Did you violate any person’s constitutional rights when you worked on the Trump investigation?” The anti-Trump attorney answered again with: “Same response.”
“Mr. Pomerantz, did you violate any person’s constitutional rights while you worked at the Manhattan D.A.‘s office?” continued Gaetz, with Pomerantz offering a variation this time, responding: “Same answer.”
When asked if he had misused any federal funds while working for the Manhattan District Attorney‘s office or while investigating former President Trump, Pomerantz pleaded the Fifth. He again invoked his Fifth Amendment rights when Gaetz asked if he had violated any New York State Bar rules while investigating Trump.
AT THE CENTER OF THE WEB.
Pomerantz, while serving under former Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, was the legal mind behind the dubious grounds for prosecuting former President Trump on felony charges of falsifying business records to cover up hush money payments to Stormy Daniels and Karen McDougal. Vance concluded there was neither sufficient evidence nor any underlying federal crime on which the felony charges could be predicated. This prompted Pomerantz to resign from the D.A.’s office in protest.
When Alvin Bragg defeated Vance’s re-election bid in 2022, Pomerantz wrote a book on his investigation of Trump. Some legal observers allege that Pomerantz’s book was intended to essentially bully Bragg into pursuing the Trump prosecution now underway in Manhattan.

Newly unearthed video has revealed Robert F. Kennedy Jr. (RFK) defending America’s corporate media class and claiming the “biggest lie” that the “right-wing has been able to promote” is that “there is a liberal media in the United States of America.”
In a 2005 speech where he also openly insulted “red state” voters, RFK can be clearly heard defending the corporate media apparatus in the United States, already whittled down to just a handful of left-liberal leaning firms by then:
“Well, the biggest lie that the right-wing has been able to promote in our country over the past 10 or 12 years has been the lie that there is a liberal media in the United States of America. There is no such thing as a liberal media. There is a right-wing media. And if you look where people are getting their news, you know, [an] overwhelming number of Americans are getting it from right-wing media. Thirty percent of Americans say that their principal news source is talk radio. which is primarily 90 percent controlled by the right. Another 22 percent say that their principal news source is one of three cable channels, CSNBC [sic], MSNBC, or Fox News, all dominated by the right.”
CNBC and MSNBC were not, in fact, “dominated by the right,” while Fox News at the time was dominated by the neoconservative uniparty.

Whistleblower Joshua Dean, who previously lodged criticisms against Boeing and its supplier Spirit AeroSystems regarding safety transgressions, has died at age 44. Dean testified against both companies in a shareholder lawsuit, alleging that Spirit neglected to heed warnings about manufacturing defects in the controversial 737 Max. He was terminated from his job as a quality auditor last April and claimed in an interview that his dismissal was meant as a warning to others.
Dean passed away on Tuesday, reportedly following a swift deterioration in his health due to pneumonia, MRSA, and complications related to a stroke. The news of his death came as a shock to his family, friends, and former colleagues. Joe Buccino, a spokesman for Spirit AeroSystems, described Dean’s death as “stunning news here at Spirit and for his loved ones.”
John Barnett, another Boeing whistleblower, was found dead with a “self-inflicted” gunshot wound amidst a lawsuit against the company. Barnett said he suffered retaliation after identifying safety issues with the Boeing 787 Dreamliner. Before his death, Barnett told friends that if anything happened to him, it would not be suicide.
A MATTER OF TIME.
Boeing continues to deny allegations made by Dean and other whistleblowers, maintaining that it did not willfully overlook safety warnings.
Another whistleblower, engineer Sam Salehpour, told Congress in April that it is only a matter of time before a Boeing aircraft experiences a catastrophic disaster. An audit of Boeing and Spirit AeroSystems by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) exposed dozens of safety issues. This followed high-profile incidents involving doors blowing out mid-flight, tires falling off aircraft, and scores of passengers being injured after being hurled into a Dreamliner’s ceiling.
French Finance Minister Bruno Le Maire has said he will not fly Boeing due to safety concerns — although the French government is a part-owner of Boeing’s main competitor, Airbus.
