Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy Name. Thy kingdom come. THY WILL BE DONE, on earth as it is in heaven. Give us this day our daily bread. And forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us. And lead us not into temptation, but DELIVER US FROM EVIL.
For Thine is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever and ever. Amen †
Returning to Washington, DC from the memorial service in Arizona, President Trump held an impromptu presser aboard Air Force One.
President Trump was asked questions about the service, the future of Turning Point USA, his relationship with Erika Kirk, the discussion between himself and Elon Musk, the U.S. purchasing Uranium from Russia (Bergum answer), the ongoing issues with drug running from Venezuela, the announcement tomorrow about autism.
On the autism question President Trump said the details will be released tomorrow by pointing to “something artificial that’s wrong, and we think we know what that is.” WATCH:
During the memorial service for Charlie Kirk, billionaire Elon Musk and President Trump were reunited after several months of well publicized division.
Billionaire Elon Musk is in a very unusual political influence position. With one foot in the billionaire Larry Ellison camp (professional/traditional GOP system), and one foot in the billionaire Peter Thiel camp (new era represented by JD Vance), Musk stands between and within these two groups and will never directly conflict with either tribal assembly.
We will never see Elon Musk in an openly public position of conflict against Oracle or Google. Nor will we see Musk in an openly public position of conflict against Palantir or Alex Karp. This is the bigger technocrat tent.
Under current policy constructs, all of the technocratic group members are benefiting financially; there is no risk to the future of their financial priorities; all of their collective planets are aligned. Thus, the individual members within the group begin to comfortably focus on ¹specific subjects of their individual priority without worry about finance.
¹Both Ellisons, Larry and David, have assembled expanded information control systems (CBS, potentially TikTok and CNN) and are now positioned for great influence in 2028. Ellison will back a candidate, unknown to us at this moment – but undoubtedly Ellison has the person already identified. Ellison’s candidate will be pro-Israel. Simultaneously, for 2028 Peter Thiel will support JD Vance. Elon Musk has one foot in each network.
President Donald Trump delivers a speech at the memorial for Charlie Kirk in Glendale, Arizona.
President Donald Trump called Charlie Kirk a “martyr for American freedom” during the service. “He’s a great American hero, that’s what he is,” Trump said, adding that he believed that the Turning Point USA founder was a patriot. “America loved Charlie Kirk,” the president said, adding that history will remember Kirk’s legacy. WATCH:
The funeral service and memorial for Charlie Kirk is scheduled to begin at 11:00am local / 2:00pm ET from State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona. Over 100,000 are anticipated to attend.
Turning Point USA and Turning Point Action will host Building a Legacy: Remembering Charlie Kirk. The event will honor the extraordinary life and impact of Charlie Kirk, Founder and CEO of Turning Point USA, who inspired millions of young people in America, and indeed around the world, to embrace the values of freedom, faith, and family.
The massive memorial will bring together national leaders from across the country, including President Donald Trump, Vice-President JD Vance and most cabinet members. Everyone attending will honor the legacy of Charlie Kirk and the Christian principles he championed. Livestream Links Below:
Below is the full interview between CBS’s Margaret Brennan and French President Emmanuel Macron. A portion of this interview aired on “Face the Nation”, however this is the complete interview.
Earlier today the U.K, Canada and Australia, 3 of the Five-Eyes western intelligence networks, announced their recognition of a Palestinian state. France will announce the same tomorrow. Israel is now slightly more vulnerable and in a diminished position of support from the western allied nations. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is more dependent on support from the U.S. than ever before.
President Macron is also facing significant domestic opposition, and his prior appointed Prime Ministers have failed and been removed. The French economy is struggling, and Macron has deflected attention to the Ukraine war in an effort to avoid domestic accountability. With the Ukraine vs Russia conflict taking a lower profile, thanks in part to President Trump’s approach – demanding NATO/EU stop purchasing Russian energy products in order to gain U.S. support for increased sanctions, Macron now shifts attention to the Israel-Hamas war. WATCH:
[Transcript] – MARGARET BRENNAN: Okay, Mr. President, if you’re ready, we’ll dive right in.
PRESIDENT EMMANUEL MACRON: Thank you.
MARGARET BRENNAN: Thank you for having us here. You know, most countries in the world recognize Palestinian statehood. It’s 147 of 193 countries at the UN, but France is going to be the first western UN Security Council member to do so. What conditions are there for this?
PRESIDENT MACRON: Look, thank you, and thank you for being here and offering me the opportunity to have such a discussion. I think it was a necessity first to decide this recognition, and I will announce it on the 22nd of September at the United Nations, precisely because we are at the very moment where if we want peace and security for all in the region, we have to preserve the condition of a political perspective for everybody. So we will announce the recognition, but which is the beginning of a political process and a peace and security plan for everybody. So right after this- this recognition, we have a first phase, which is, I would say, the emergency phase, ceasefire, release of all hostages..and third, restoring the humanitarian roads and the stabilization of Gaza. We have a second package, which is the day after we will revert on that how to organize Gaza in terms of governance, security and reconstruction. And third package, the perspective of the two states. But recognizing the Palestinian state today is the only way to provide a political solution to a situation which has to stop.
My analytical and historic opinion of Pam Bondi is well known {GO DEEP}. CTH previously faced anger and scorn from those who disagreed. However, from CTH long-term perspective, Bondi was/is a political animal lacking intellectual acumen and carrying outlooks subject to popular political perspectives. She was over her head from day one, but Susie Wiles liked her former colleague a lot.
As U.S. Attorney General, Bondi does not have the ability to independently strategize against the Lawfare system that has corrupted Main Justice and U.S. politics. That said, from the position of protecting President Trump from attacks, Bondi is effective, and thus criticism of her inabilities should be tempered.
Last night, President Trump posted on Truth Social that the clock was ticking, and no accountability has yet been delivered against those who weaponized government power structures against himself and the American people [SEE HERE]. Shortly thereafter, President Trump was asked about his criticisms of Bondi. WATCH:
President Trump’s social media post: “Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, “same old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam “Shifty” Schiff, Leticia??? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done.” Then we almost put in a Democrat supported U.S. Attorney, in Virginia, with a really bad Republican past. A Woke RINO, who was never going to do his job. That’s why two of the worst Dem Senators PUSHED him so hard. He even lied to the media and said he quit, and that we had no case. No, I fired him, and there is a GREAT CASE, and many lawyers, and legal pundits, say so. Lindsey Halligan is a really good lawyer, and likes you, a lot. We can’t delay any longer, it’s killing our reputation and credibility. They impeached me twice, and indicted me (5 times!), OVER NOTHING. JUSTICE MUST BE SERVED, NOW!!! President DJT“
In an effort to keep the Daily Open Thread a little more open topic we are going to start a new daily thread for “Presidential Politics”. Please use this thread to post anything relating to the Donald Trump Administration and Presidency.
This thread will refresh daily and appear above the Open Discussion Thread.
