RFK Jr. Teases More Big Names to Join Trump Coalition: ‘Wait Until You See the Next Additions’
Robert F. Kennedy, Jr. said his endorsement of former President Donald Trump “is only the beginning” of a succession of big names set to join Trump’s “unity government.”
“This is only the beginning. Wait till you see the next additions to President Trump’s Unity Government,” Kennedy teased Sunday in response to reports his endorsement is moving the needle in Trump’s favor in battleground states.

Kennedy joined “Fox News Sunday” to expound on Trump’s vision of a “unity government”, hinting Trump will “make a series of announcements of other Democrats who are joining his campaign.”
“The broadest issues that brought me into the campaign, which was ending the Ukraine war, ending the censorship and protecting children’s health, reforming our food supply — all things we need to do to make our children healthy again — those are all things President Trump also wanted to work on,” he said.

“He invited me to form a unity government. We agreed that we’d be able to continue to criticize each other on issues on which we don’t agree. But these issues are so important in their way of unifying our country, we need in this country to reach a point where we love our children more than we hate each other.”
In a separate post on X, Kennedy explained how he’s come to understand what “Make America Great Again” really means to Trump and his supporters.
What “MAGA” really means

The phrase has troubled liberals who think it is a call for a return to an America before civil rights, gay rights, and women’s rights. But I have a more generous interpretation, one that is truer to my experience of Donald Trump as he is today. “Make…
Given the Democrat Party’s propensity to reject anybody who deviates from the far-left hive-mind, such as RFK Jr., former Democrat Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (Hawaii) and billionaire Elon Musk, it will be interesting to see who else decides to join the fold of Trump’s unity government campaign.

Sen. Booker: Democrats Hope to ‘Finally Kill’ MAGA Strain of Republican Party This Election
Sen. Cory Booker (D-N.J.) claimed on CNN that the upcoming election could “finally kill” the MAGA offshoot of the Republican Party.
Interesting choice of words.
“State of the Union” host Jake Tapper began his line of questioning by rightly pointing out that the Democrats have controlled the White House for most of the last 16 years.
“America is wanted for a new chapter. America is ready for a better story a, new, chapter. I mean, she’s the incumbent vice president. Democrats have controlled the White House for 12 of the last 16 years. How can Democrats talk about a new chapter? Turning the page, you guys are the ones writing the book?” Tapper asked Booker.
Booker pushed back, claiming Republicans have been responsible for stymying “pragmatic progress.”
“Well, you know that that’s not true, Jake, because you know, politics like I do right now, we see the MAGA Republicans in Congress killing all kind of pragmatic policies that we need to get done,” Booker explained.
“On the most contentious issue we had a bipartisan deal settle on by Senator Lankford are right-wing Republican and Chris Murphy, a blue state Democrat. And what killed that deal, what killed the pragmatic progress, wasn’t the sensible Republicans, but really people that were kowtowing to Donald Trump whose influence is egregious and incredible from his appointment of three people to the Supreme Court that are now rolling back the most fundamental of our rights and freedoms like bodily autonomy and reproductive rights.”
“So to say that the MAGA Republicans are not still undermining common sense pragmatic, sensible politics is just wrong and what I know this election can do is finally kill that strain of the Republican Party in a way that I think helps the pragmatic Republicans come back.”
Given former President Donald Trump was nearly assassinated just 42 days ago, Booker’s choice of words should have been more tactfully phrased.
And what would killing the MAGA Republican movement look like if Dems win the election?
Well, according to top Democrats, re-education camps would definitely be on the table.

‘She’s Come to the Middle’: Colorado Governor Insists Kamala Harris Has ‘Moderated’ Her Radical Policy Positions
Colorado Gov. Jared Polis (D) dismissed criticism over Kamala Harris’s rhetorical shift away from the far-left, claiming she’s “moderated” her policy positions since becoming the Democrat Party’s presidential nominee.
“The truth of the matter is, yes, she’s come to the middle. She’s pragmatic, she’s a tough leader, she’s the leader we need for the future,” Polis said on “Fox News Sunday.”
Kamala surrogate Jared Polis says that Kamala has “moderated” on her Socialist polices.

This is a lie. Kamala Harris is still a radical that supports ending cash bail for violent criminals. pic.twitter.com/4XYaZsz1CT
“So again, while she may have in the past, ran on things, just as President Trump ran on single payer — supported single payer health care years ago and has moved away from that — Kamala Harris did support things that she’s now moderated.”
(For context on his laughable comparison, Trump said he was open to single payer healthcare 25 years ago. He condemned it in 2011 after witnessing the disastrous rollout of Obamacare, long before running for president in 2015.)
Polis argued that Harris is working to meet the priorities of all Americans regardless of their political affiliation.
“She’s going to be a president for all the American people,” he said. “Look, whether you’re conservative, whether you’re moderate, whether you’re liberal, I think you’re going to see a lot of your priorities reflected in President Harris, who’s really just out for the people, as she said, fighting to make housing more affordable, improve our schools, make education, more affordable and strengthen the jobs market.”
Polis also insisted Harris will do “a lot more interviews in the future,” citing her scheduled debate against former President Donald Trump on Sept. 10.
“She’s already taking questions at a number of different venues as she’s moving in and out,” he added.
Of course, Harris has been open about her radical left agenda while running in 2020, including ending the filibuster to force through a “Green New Deal,” defunding the police, gun confiscation, eliminating private insurance, state-funded healthcare for illegal aliens, and backing a bail fund for violent BLM rioters and criminals.

This is why Harris has been avoiding the press and interviews to answer for her radical record and policy proposals.

Watch: Jon Stewart Blasts Hypocrisy of ‘Often Contradictory’ DNC
“The Daily Show” host Jon Stewart ridiculed the open hypocrisy displayed at the DNC last week, calling it “often contradictory.”
Stewart during his monologue pointed out that everything the DNC proclaimed it supported was undermined by its own slate of guests, such as Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) condemning billionaires only to be followed up with a speech by billionaire Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker.
“But credit where credit is due, the Democrats, on short notice, exploited their newfound momentum and enthusiasm with a display of the breadth and width of this diverse, often contradictory party of Roosevelt,” Stewart began. “At their convention, they had union leaders and CEOs. They had Democratic Party icons and lifelong Republicans.”
“They had a guy yelling ‘screw the billionaires,’ followed immediately by a very happy billionaire,” he noted.
“They had guys making fun of people for going to Yale, and a bunch of people who went to Yale.”
“The Democrats had people who prosecuted sexual predators, and a –”
At that point, the show cut to an image of Jeffrey Epstein associate Bill Clinton.
“There goes that booking,” Stewart said with a faux wince.
The DNC’s display of hypocrisy is just par for the course, pushing a theme of “joy” while simultaneously only disparaging Trump and MAGA Republicans the entire time.

Watch: Gov. Newsom Laughs Over DNC’s ‘Switch’ to Kamala Harris, Says He Was Told To Call It ‘Inclusive’
California Gov. Gavin Newsom laughed about the “open” and “inclusive” process that resulted in the “switch” to Kamala Harris as the Democrat Party’s presidential nominee.
During a Friday appearance on “Pod Save America”, Newsom had a laugh over the undemocratic nature of the DNC’s coronation of Harris after forcing Joe Biden out of the race.
“How are you feeling about the switch?” the host asked him.
Newsom said, “We went through a very open process, a very inclusive process. It was bottom-up, I don’t know if you know that. That’s what I’ve been told to say.”
?Wow. Gavin Newsom mocks the Democrats’ coronation of Kamala Harris:

“A 30-minute convention between tweets and other tweets, it’s amazing,” he added.
The host and other guests chuckled as he made the remarks.
Then Newsom got serious, saying, “And you know what is amazing is how unified everyone is. I mean it’s next level.”
The Democrats know they upended the democratic process to hastily install Harris as their presidential nominee — they just don’t care.
Ukraine Has Lost Two Thirds of US-Supplied Tanks – Reports
Ukraine has lost two thirds of its US-supplied Abrams M1 main battle tanks in the space of only half a year, Military Watch Magazine has reported.
The outlet said in an article on Thursday that, according to its estimates, “close to 20” out of 31 tanks provided to Kiev by Washington have already been destroyed by Russian forces.
The latest Abrams was blown up in Russia’s Kursk Region, Military Watch Magazine said, based on videos uploaded by Russian Telegram channels. It appears to be the first American tank lost by Ukraine during its ongoing incursion into internationally recognized Russian territory, it added.
The M1 in question had “a significantly improved” explosive reactive armor, as Ukraine took steps to increase the protection of the US-made tanks, “particularly after they took heavy losses in their first engagements with Russian forces in February-April 2024,” the report read. However, the Abrams still could not withstand a projectile from a handheld anti-tank missile system, likely a Kornet, with which it had reportedly been hit, it stressed.
Military Watch reminded subscribers that Ukrainian troops operating the M1s had previously complained to Western media about “technical issues, including vulnerability of electronic components to condensation, as well as their vulnerability to Russian fire.”
The outlet described the Abrams, the German Leopard 2, the British Challenger 2 and the Soviet era T-80 tanks as “the scarcest tank classes in Ukrainian service.”
But it also pointed out that, while Kiev expects a replacement for its destroyed Leopards from the EU nations, “there have been few indications that the US could make further deliveries of Abrams tanks.”
Russia’s Defense Ministry said on Saturday that, since the start of its incursion into Kursk Region on August 6, Ukraine has already lost more than 5,550 troops and hundreds of units of military equipment, including 71 tanks.
