Hegseth Lays It on the Line on The Hill … Another Failed Assassination Attempt … Comey Indicted for Threat Against Trump … CNN Reports Black Voter Gains for Trump

NOTICE: For some time, I have considered making a change in the heading on this blog. I am not a vane person, but the photo of me was taken 12 years ago, when I began publishing my commentaries online, and frankly, I’ve aged.

Without a reasonable photo, I decided to join a lot of the columnists I read regularly, who publish with a caricature of themselves. I chose to experiment with my AI software package and found it fascinating.

Commentary

Hegseth Firm

“Your hatred for President Trump blinds you to the truth of the success of this mission,” Secretary of War Pete Hegseth told California Democrat Rep. John Garamendi, adding, “I know the American people support that mission, despite your loose talk.”

The biggest adversary we face at this point are the reckless, feckless and defeatist words of congressional Democrats and some Republicans,” he said in his opening remarks in Wednesday’s budget hearing before the House Armed Services Committee.

Failed Assassination

Finger-pointing at the Secret Service was again the order of the day, but SS Director Sean Curran pointed to the success of stopping Cole Allen from his mission to kill President Trump and members of his administration at the White House Correspondent’s Dinner.

Despite efforts to tone down the negative rhetoric against Trump by lawmakers, said to be encouraging fringe individuals to take the president’s life, many continue to double down, including top Democrats Schumer and Jeffries.

Comey Indicted

Last May, former FBI Director James Comey posted a photo of shells spelling out “86 47” on Instagram, taken from the slang “get rid of.  The grand jury saw it as an intent to do harm to the president.

While the Wall Street Journal headline read, “Comey, Long in Trump’s Sights, Is Indicted Over an Online Post,” it failed to mention that, in fact, Comey and the Deep State have long had Trump in their sights.

Trump Poll with Blacks Up

“Donald Trump’s Republican Paty is absolutely gaining ground, not just him gaining in terms of his approval rating,” said CNN’s senior data analyst Harry Enten.

“This, to me, was absolutely stunning,“ he said.  Black voters identifying as Democrats dropped from 63 percent to 51 percent since Trump’s first term.

May God continue to bless the United States of America.
