President Trump blasted RINO Senator John Cornyn as “VERY disloyal” on Sunday, encouraging voters to turn out for Trump-Endorsed Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the Tuesday runoff election for Texas Senate. 

Neither candidate received 50% of the vote in the March Primary, leading to a runoff election this Tuesday.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Trump endorsed Paxton on Tuesday after months of remaining neutral in the contest.

Now, Paxton, the long-time MAGA favorite, is surging in the polls, with a 21-point lead over Cornyn in the latest SoCal Strategies poll conducted between May 20 and 21, just days after Trump made his endorsement.

Additionally, Paxton is destroying Cornyn in the prediction markets, leading Cornyn by more than 90% on Polymarket and Kalshi.

The Lone Star Liberty PAC, a super PAC supporting Paxton, is already taking aim at his November opponent, Democrat James Talarico.

In a brutal new ad, Talarico is hammered over his past statements, declaring “God is nonbinary,” saying there are six biological sexes, calling for Texans to reduce their meat consumption, trashing the American flag, making racist and sexist comments about Whites and men, calling for open borders, saying he loves “trans children,” and more.

It also shows Trump accurately summing him up, telling reporters, “The Democrats have a weird, a weird candidate.”

“Low-T Talarico, too weak for Texas,” the ad concludes.

WATCH:

In Trump’s latest statement on the race, the President praised Paxton as “a GREAT Attorney General, probably the best in the Country” and “very loyal.”

Cornyn, he said, “was VERY disloyal to me, as President, and didn’t fight hard enough for the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT – VOTER I.D., PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP, NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS.”

“What more needs to be said???” he added, noting that Paxton will “NEVER LET YOU DOWN!!!”

Full statement below:

TEXAS, REMEMBER! Ken Paxton was a GREAT Attorney General, probably the best in the Country. He was also very loyal to your favorite President, ME, as the Dumocrats played their ultimate game of Weaponization, and failed, BADLY! I LOVE Texas, and WON it all three times, getting, by far, the highest (A Record!) Vote in the History of that Great & Beautiful State. Ken’s opponent was VERY disloyal to me, as President, and didn’t fight hard enough for the desperately needed SAVE AMERICA ACT – VOTER I.D., PROOF OF CITIZENSHIP, NO MAIL-IN BALLOTS (with exceptions for Military, Illness, Disability, or Travel!). What more needs to be said??? Vote for Ken Paxton on Tuesday, HE WILL NEVER LET YOU DOWN!!! President DONALD J. TRUMP

Far-left streamer Hasan Piker panicked during his live show on Sunday after the feds subpoenaed him over his trips to Cuba.

The Treasury Department subpoenaed Hasan Piker and Code Pink founder Susie Benjamin as part of the federal government’s investigation into Communist activists who traveled to Cuba earlier this year in violation of US sanctions.

The federal government is investigating whether Piker and other activists coordinated with the Communist Party of Cuba in violation of US laws.

Hasan Piker previously admitted that the Cuban government reached out to him with a special offer.

“The Cuban government actually hit my contact from the embassy… well not me, there’s a middle man there,” Piker said.

On Sunday, Hasan Piker realized the gravity of the situation and told his audience that being the subject of a federal probe is “not great.”

“I’m not gonna lie to you guys. It’s not great. The news is not great, OK? I mean, it’s bullshit, but still not great that they’re after your boy. They’re up my ass,” Hasan Piker said.

Fox News reported:

Federal officials have served subpoenas to Marxist political influencer Hasan Piker and CodePink cofounder Susan Medea Benjamin as part of a wider investigation into whether U.S. organizations and leaders violated U.S. laws and sanctions in supporting Cuba’s communist regime, Fox News Digital has learned.

Piker and Benjamin are among those caught in a federal inquiry into whether activists who traveled to Cuba in March violated U.S. sanctions laws through the financing, coordination or delivery of goods to Cuba, including potential contacts with Cuban government personnel or entities on the island. The administrative subpoenas were sent to the pair by the Treasury Department’s Office of Foreign Assets Control

The administrative subpoenas — called “Requests for Information,” or RFI — seek financial, logistical and communications information revolving around trips the two widely bragged about making to the island nation in March with delegations of the “Nuestra América Convoy,” or “Our America Convoy,” from a global network of communist sympathizers, activists and influencers who brought supplies to the country’s ruling Communist Party of Cuba, according to sources familiar with the matter.

The investigation is part of a broader effort by officials at Treasury, State and Justice departments to curb malign foreign influence operations inside the United States, particularly activities tied to support for political violence, extremist movements or acts the U.S. government classifies as terrorism. The scrutiny reflects growing concern among federal authorities and lawmakers over whether foreign actors and aligned organizations are attempting to shape American political discourse, mobilize activists, sow discord and normalize rhetoric that could encourage violence or undermine U.S. national security interests.

Federal Communications Commission Chairman Brendan Carr is asking the public to weigh in on whether ABC’s “The View” truly qualifies as a news program, and therefore not subject to broadcast laws requiring it to provide access to differing political views.

Of course, anyone who watches the program at all knows its political views range from left to hard left.

Carr posted on social media on Friday, “Disney has filed a petition with the FCC asking the agency to declare that The View is exempt from the statutory equal opportunities requirements that would otherwise apply to broadcast shows.”

ABC is part of the Disney Corporation.

“Disney argues that The View qualifies as ‘bona fide news’ under the law, comparing itself to Meet The Press or Face The Nation,” he added. “Therefore, Disney argues, it can have one partisan candidate for office on The View while denying equal opportunities to all others.”

Carr noted that the FCC is now seeking public comment on the matter online. “Is The View a ‘bona fide news interview program’?” he asked.

“Under FCC case law, tv shows do not qualify as ‘bona fide news’ if their decisions are based on partisan purposes, such as an intention to advance or harm an individual’s candidacy,” Carr wrote.

He linked to the FCC’s public notice regarding the inquiry.

The FCC chair explained, “As the Public Notice observes, Congress originally passed the equal opportunities law to prevent media gatekeepers from deciding the outcome of elections. The law, even when it applies, does not prohibit anyone from having any candidate appear on any show. Rather, Congress intended it to empower voters with more information and encourage more speech.”

In a memo posted online in January, Carr noted that when it comes to true news programs, the airtime equality standard does not apply, because the federal government is not going to get into the business of dictating what’s newsworthy.

Further, “These regulations, which do not apply to cable channels [Fox News, CNN, etc.] or other forms of distribution [like podcasts], represent, in codified form, the decision by Congress that broadcast television stations [ABC, CBS, NBC] have an obligation to operate in the public interest — not in any narrow partisan, political interest.”

Daytime TV like @TheView and late night shows like @JimmyKimmelLive & @ColbertShow have consistently featured only Democratic candidates while shutting out Republicans. This @FCC notice is an important step toward accountability for these legacy network shows. https://t.co/FG5UM0He0X

Just this week, “The View” co-hosts spent an entire segment, as they often do, bashing President Donald Trump, in this case for helping oust Republican Sen. Bill Cassidy of Louisiana from office.

“Cassidy lost because he did the right thing and stood up against a man who was trying to destroy democracy,” Ana Navarro said, referring to Trump.

“This tells us why, as long as Republicans are in power in the majority, there will never be accountability. There will never be checks and balances. There will never be oversight,” she added, as co-host Whoopi Goldberg nodded and Sunny Hostin agreed.

“So if Americans want this to end, want the abuses of power checked, they have got to vote Democrat in November,” Navarro said, with no pushback from the panel.

Call “The View” what you will — leftist entertainment, perhaps — but it’s not bona fide news, and if they’re going to wade into campaign politics, both sides need to be represented. Brendan Carr is right to bring this matter to the public’s attention and seek their input.

Rep. Ro Khanna appeared on NBC’s Meet the Press and reacted to the political downfall of Rep. Thomas Massie, one of the most anti-Trump Republicans in Congress.

Khanna, a California Democrat, has worked closely with Massie on several issues, including efforts related to Iran’s war powers and the release of the Epstein files. During the interview, Khanna called Massie “a real friend” and said he felt “sadness” and “disappointment” over Massie’s defeat.

That reaction says everything.

Massie was never simply an independent-minded Republican. He repeatedly positioned himself against President Trump on some of the most important fights of Trump’s second term. 

He opposed Trump’s major legislative agenda, fought the president on foreign policy, and built a strange political alliance with Democrats such as Khanna.

Khanna tried to frame Massie’s downfall as the result of courage. He claimed Massie was taken out because he worked to release the Epstein files and opposed the war in Iran.

But the real reason was much simpler: Massie went against Trump and the America First movement too many times.

When President Trump pushed the One Big Beautiful Bill as one of the defining legislative achievements of his second term, Massie opposed it. 

When Trump moved forward with his foreign policy agenda, Massie joined Democrats in trying to limit the president’s authority. When Massie had the chance to stand with the Republican Party’s voters, he repeatedly chose the side of the Washington opposition.

Khanna’s defense of Massie also exposed how Democrats use Republicans who break with Trump. They praise them as “courageous” only when they help Democrats weaken the conservative agenda.

The interview then moved to the Supreme Court, where Khanna made clear how radical the future of the Democrat Party has become. 

After criticizing a recent Supreme Court decision related to voting rights, Khanna called for term limits and expanding the court from nine to 13 seats once Democrats regain full power.

That is court-packing.

Democrats spent years calling Trump a threat to democracy. Yet their own solution to losing Supreme Court cases is to change the number of justices until they get the rulings they want.

Khanna claimed expanding the court would somehow “depoliticize” the judiciary. The opposite is true. 

Once one party expands the Supreme Court for political gain, every future majority would have an incentive to do the same. The court would stop functioning as an independent branch and become another partisan battlefield.

Khanna also compared the current Supreme Court to the Dred Scott Court and accused the justices of rolling back civil rights. That kind of rhetoric is exactly how Democrats turn every legal defeat into a racial crisis.

The Supreme Court should not be packed because Democrats dislike its rulings. 

Congressional districts should not be judged only by race because Democrats assume minority voters belong to them. And Republicans should not be surprised when Democrats mourn the defeat of a Republican who often helped them fight Trump.

Massie’s downfall is not a mystery. He chose to make himself an obstacle to Trump’s agenda, and the America First movement responded.

Ro Khanna’s reaction only proves how useful Massie had become to the left.

There are roughly 1,000 young girls from Christian families in Pakistan each year who are kidnapped from their homes and forced into marriages with Muslims.

International Christian Concern, a ministry that draws attention to the worldwide persecuted church, released a report on May 13 giving examples of the trend.

“These girls are often found months later, after they’ve been forced to convert to Islam and marry older Muslim men,” the organization said.

“When a girl’s parents attempt to claim their daughter in court, they are often unable to provide a birth certificate to prove that she is underage. As a result, the judge often grants the man custody of the girl, denying the parents any chance of seeing their daughter again.”

One such girl was Adan Sabir.

She rejected a marriage proposal in July 2025 from a man named Usman Ali, who then kidnapped her at gunpoint.

Ali offered a forged marriage certificate when her parents challenged the abduction in court.

In September 2025, the Lahore High Court ordered Sabir to be returned home — and as of earlier this year, she is engaged to a Christian man.

But when Ali learned about the engagement, he fired gunshots at the family’s home, forcing them to move from place to place every few days.

In the same way, Maria Shahbaz was kidnapped, forced to convert, and made to marry a Muslim in July 2025.

But a judge ruled against her parents when they tried to get her back.

Pakistan’s Federal Constitutional Court declared in March 2026 that her conversion was valid, and that the marriage fell under the jurisdiction of Islamic law.

She was 13 years old at the time of her abduction, according to her father.

Farah Shaheen, who was 12 when she was abducted from her Christian family, was forced to marry a 45-year-old Muslim.

She was found in December 2020 with bruises on her body.

Shaheen testified in court that she willfully married to her husband — likely out of fear.

Her parents got custody of her in February 2021 after eight months of fighting in the courts.

Human Younus was abducted in October 2019 at 14 years old and coerced into marrying her Islamic captor.

The Sindh High Court ultimately decided that Younus had a valid marriage under Sharia law since she already had her first menstrual cycle.

Laiba Masih, who was only 10, was taken by a 40-year-old Muslim who practiced polygamy and had three wives.

Masih was later given to a different man named Shoukat Shah.

Shah declined to return the girl when her parents approached him.
