Democratic Socialist Florida Senate Candidate Claimed Saying ‘Stop Woke’ is a ‘Racist Dog Whistle’ Aimed at Black People
September 26, 2026
Florida Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon called Gov. Ron DeSantis’s “Stop WOKE” slogan a “racist dog whistle” that “is just a term that is devaluing black people,” during a 2023 One Take Live interview.
Nixon is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America.
“We know that you just want to remove woke and replace it with black people,” Nixon said during the resurfaced video, “and look, if Florida is where woke or black people go to die, that’s evident by what just took place on Saturday.”
DeSantis has used the line that Florida is where woke goes to die for the package of education and workplace bills that limited classroom instruction on race and gender, restricted diversity trainings, and pulled some inappropriate books from libraries.
Nixon treated that slogan as a stand-in for Black Floridians.
The candidate said DeSantis “had this attack on woke, this stop woke, because he wants people sleeping.”
She accused him of trying to ban mass protest and of “trying to make it so that people could run folks over in the street if they blocked the street while they were protesting.”
“And if we come into power, they are fearful,” she said. “They’re fearful that if this group comes into power, all these marginalized people, that they’re going to do to what they’ve done to many of us for hundreds of years.”
Nixon also dismissed working across the aisle.
“They’re not trying to work across the aisle. They’re literally trying to kill us, and they are doing it on camera,” Nixon claimed, despite recent high-profile assassinations and attempts against conservatives.

Nixon is a Jacksonville state representative. She beat Alexander Vindman in the August primary.
After Charlie Kirk was killed, she wrote that anyone who backed a remembrance resolution was “a tool of white supremacy,” according to a report from the Daily Wire, and on the House floor she compared a Kirk Day bill to something “brought straight by the KKK.”

President Trump attended the University of Tennessee football game against the University of Texas on Saturday and made his grand entrance with a low flyover over the stadium on Air Force One.
Real America’s Voice, which replaced CNN in covering the White House’s television pool duties today, captured the stadium flyover from onboard.
Trump also posted a video of himself walking through and riling up the crowd, giving high fives and shaking hands, as they chanted “USA” during the Tennessee Volunteers’ 17-20 loss to the Texas Longhorns.

Trump at the UN: “While Others Have Talked, I Have Acted”
September 26, 2026

This week, in his address to the UN General Assembly, President Trump called out several dictatorial regimes in front of the world, at an institution whose Human Rights Council he has called an embarrassment for enabling Christian persecution and shielding dictators.
The UN has a long record of placing abusive regimes on human rights bodies. In 2003, Libya, then under UN sanctions for terrorism, was elected to chair the Commission on Human Rights, the Human Rights Council’s predecessor. Saudi Arabia won a seat on the council in 2016.
Trump criticized the council at the 2017 General Assembly. He called it “a massive source of embarrassment to the United Nations” that governments with egregious human rights records held seats. The following June, after then-Ambassador Nikki Haley’s attempt to reform the council failed, the United States withdrew.
A White House fact sheet named Venezuela, Cuba, Burundi, China, and the Democratic Republic of Congo as council members with records of continual human rights abuses. It also said the council had passed more resolutions condemning Israel than Syria, Iran, and North Korea combined.
At the 2018 General Assembly, Trump said the council had become “a grave embarrassment to this institution, shielding egregious human rights abusers while bashing America and its many friends.” He said the United States would not return until it was reformed.
The elections continued. In 2020, the General Assembly elected China, Russia, and Cuba to the council. Iran won a seat on the UN Commission on the Status of Women but was removed in 2022 over its crackdown on women protesters. The following year, the Human Rights Council named Iran’s ambassador to chair its 2023 Social Forum. That same year, China and Cuba were re-elected to the council, along with Burundi. In 2024, Saudi Arabia was elected to chair the women’s commission.
When Trump withdrew the United States from the council again in February 2025, a White House fact sheet said Iran, China, and Cuba used it to shield themselves despite their human rights records.
In Tuesday’s speech, Trump described U.S. action against Venezuela. On January 3, U.S. forces carried out Operation Absolute Resolve in Caracas and arrested Nicolás Maduro, who is in federal detention in New York awaiting trial on drug trafficking charges. “Since that day, hundreds of political prisoners have been set free, and we’re working closely with the leaders of Venezuela to forge a much better future for the Venezuelan people,” Trump said.
Trump also cited an oil agreement signed in August with the government of interim leader Delcy Rodríguez, Maduro’s former vice president. He called it “the largest oil deal in history,” saying it covered 65 billion barrels and would benefit both countries.
Trump followed his account of the Venezuela operation with a warning: “The United States will no longer permit threats to America to gain a foothold anywhere in the Western Hemisphere — and if necessary, we will use our unmatched military might to secure the vital national interests of the United States.”
On Iran, Trump said, “I will never allow Iran to have a nuclear weapon.” U.S. military action against Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) began February 28 with strikes that killed Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. Trump told the Assembly that as a result of Operation Epic Fury, “all 159 ships of their navy are now lying at the bottom of the sea,” Iran’s air force “is gone,” and its economy “is gone,” with inflation “well over 300%.”
He posed a choice between a deal that would let Iran rebuild and a decision to “annihilate the Islamic Republic.” He predicted a deal after the U.S. midterm elections and urged countries to enforce the “complete economic isolation of Iran” until it ends attacks on commercial shipping, gives up its nuclear ambitions, and stops its support for terrorism. Most of Iran’s delegation walked out during his remarks.
Turning to Cuba, Trump said “the communist regime is under great pressure, the biggest pressure they’ve ever been under. It’s an absolutely failed state. It’s failing like never before, and it will fall.” He said Secretary of State Marco Rubio was “deep into negotiations with Cuba” and added, “We’ll not allow a haven for foreign adversaries to threaten America on our own doorstep.” He also said, “Communism will never be coming to America, but freedom will be coming to Cuba.”
The Cuban delegation walked out during his remarks. Cuba’s foreign minister, Bruno Rodríguez Parrilla, called them “falsehoods and slanders” and denied that formal negotiations were under way. The next day, Rubio said Cuba had a “golden opportunity” to change course and that the U.S. was prepared to help, while declining to speculate on military action.
Trump has predicted the Cuban government’s collapse since Maduro’s capture in January, when he said the island would soon “fall of its own volition.” At the Shield of the Americas summit in Doral, Florida, on March 7, he said Cuba was in its “last moments” and did not rule out a “friendly takeover.” After backchannel talks collapsed in May, the administration’s timeline lengthened. In August, Rubio told Axios the policy required “patience and persistence,” aiming to put Cuba “on an irreversible glide path toward a different future” by the end of Trump’s term. New sanctions followed on September 17.
The Human Rights Council’s Independent International Fact-Finding Mission on Iran found reasonable grounds to believe that two U.S. airstrikes on February 28 amounted to war crimes. The strikes killed at least 178 civilians, including children at a school in Minab. The mission also found that Iran’s government committed crimes against humanity during its crackdown on protesters. The Pentagon declined to comment while its own investigation continues.
This report illustrates why Trump withdrew the United States from the council. For decades, Iran’s rulers have repressed, tortured, and killed their own citizens. Estimates of those killed in this year’s protest crackdown reach around 40,000. Iran has also supported Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. Cuba has spent decades suppressing political opposition and restricting freedom of speech and the press.
Yet the council has repeatedly given abusive governments seats, and its latest Iran report subjects two U.S. strikes to the same level of scrutiny as the IRGC’s nearly 50 years of abuses. That record helps explain Trump’s decision to leave the council and confront those governments directly.

You know that thin bath towel.
You step out of the shower. The bath towel looks big enough. But you wrap it once and it feels thin against your skin. You rub your arms and the water just moves around. Five minutes later you’re still damp, standing on a mat that smells like wet cotton.
That thin towel quit drying you years ago.
A lot of homes keep a stack like that. One from the kids’ old set. A hand towel that used to match something. Washcloths so thin they feel like paper.
Mike Lindell set out to change that. Everyone knows him from his fights against Leftists. But what he’s done with pillows, sheets and now towels is just as impressive.

Texas DPS Seize Over 150 Pounds of Illegal Drugs at Laredo Port of Entry, Two Arrests Made
September 26, 2026
Texas DPS has been working with federal law enforcement to prevent the flow of illegal drugs into the United States as part of Operation Lone Star.
Over 153 pounds of illegal drugs were seized earlier this week, which included over 19 million doses of fentanyl that could have resulted in fatalities. This occurred in Webb County during an inspection of a commercial vehicle.
Special Agents from the Texas DPS CID unit were requested by the Border Patrol to assist in an inspection at the Laredo Port of Entry. The commercial vehicle that was searched had 26 pounds of meth, 15 pounds of eutylone, 94 pounds of fentanyl, and 18 pounds of heroin.
LAREDO – The Texas Department of Public Safety (DPS), as part of a joint operation with federal authorities during Operation Lone Star (OLS), seized over 153 pounds of narcotics– including more than 19,868,181 potentially lethal doses of fentanyl – during a commercial vehicle inspection in Webb Co. this week.
On Tuesday, September 22, 2026, at 7:00 a.m., Special Agents from DPS’ Criminal Investigations Division (CID) responded to a request for assistance from U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) Agents at the Laredo Port of Entry. A commercial vehicle inspection uncovered 26 pounds of methamphetamine, 18 pounds of heroin, 15 pounds of eutylone and 94 pounds of fentanyl. The narcotics have an estimated street value of more than $1.4 million.
DPS special agents handled the case and made two arrests. The driver, 53-year-old Ernesto Jaime of Wisconsin, and the passenger, 51-year-old Enrique Ramirez Valle of Oklahoma. Both men have been charged with felony possession of a controlled substance and were taken into custody. They were sent to the Webb County jail.

Texas DPS has been consistently on the front lines pursuing drug smugglers. They also pursue and arrest illegal aliens within the State. TGP recently reported on the DPS’s K-9 Unit and Border Mounted Patrol, working with the Border Patrol, to find a group of illegal aliens hiding in the brush on a private ranch.
