Trump campaign says its internal messages hacked by Iran

Donald Trump’s campaign has said some of its internal communications have been hacked and suggested it was targeted by Iranian operatives.

US news website Politico reported on Saturday that it had been emailed campaign documents including internal research carried out on Trump’s running mate, Ohio Senator JD Vance.

“These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election,” a campaign spokesman told the BBC.

Politico – We received internal Trump documents from ‘Robert.’ Then the campaign confirmed it was hacked.

Former President Donald Trump’s campaign said Saturday that some of its internal communications had been hacked.

The acknowledgment came after POLITICO began receiving emails from an anonymous account with documents from inside Trump’s operation.

GUNTER: Lax refugee screening a welcome mat for terrorists

Liberal Jenica Atwin, the New Brunswick MP who was elected as a Green in 2019 and defected to the Liberals in 2021, has asked the government to loosen up its security screening on refugees seeking to leave Gaza and come to Canada.

Oh, yeah. That’s a good idea. Since Hamas controls who enters and also who exits Gaza, there’s no chance they’d take our loosened regulations as an opportunity to smuggle out Hamas operatives under the guise of asylum seekers.

Riding America’s WORST train line: NYC commuters forced to dodge drugged-up zombies and feces

It is a sight sadly all too familiar for bleary-eyed New Yorkers braving their morning commute.

Homeless drug addicts lie strewn across subway staircases and platforms, many barely conscious from their breakfast hits.

But it is also one that New York Mayor Eric Adams promised to be rid of as part of a drive to clean up the city’s filthy subways two years ago.

I dunno seems pretty Toronto.

How Trump Can Combat the Harris Surge

For most of 2024, Americans had the unusual experience of living through a two-incumbent election. The year began with the first presidential repeat since 1956. It was the first time the major parties were set to nominate a current and past president since 1892. The presence of two incumbents introduced all sorts of peculiarities into the race. Both President Joe Biden and former president Donald Trump were well known. Both men were unpopular. And both had records that could be easily contrasted.

Illegals and attacks on U.S. citizens

When does it end?

Ever since President Joe Biden decided to be more “relaxed” with his border stance, the country has fallen into chaos. Thousands of illegal immigrants have now made our way into the United States, flooding such cities as Boston and New York City.

And although not all of them have criminal intent, the ones that do certainly pose a dangerous threat. It’s one that the President should no longer ignore — not if he wants to save his country for when he hopes Kamala Harris will take over.

Elon Musk’s Wild Week in the Name of Free Speech

It’s not OK to yell “fire” in a crowded theater. But what about tweeting “civil war” during a moment of U.K. unrest on your social-media platform X?

That’s the question for Elon Musk this past week.

The chief executive of Tesla and SpaceX has fashioned himself as something of a modern day Larry Flynt: a rich guy willing to spend his own fortune as a defender of free speech even if it is offensive to many.
