Scott Jennings recently caused a total meltdown from his fellow CNN panelists by asking a simple question.

Democrat strategist Alencia Jonson was talking about the SAVE America Act and repeatedly claimed that it would ‘take voting rights away’ from black people and others. Scott simply asked, “how?”

Naturally, she can’t give Scott an answer, so she filibusters by repeating the claim, and Jennings keeps asking, “how?”

Host Abby Phillip then rides in to rescue the liberal panelist like she always does and things get even crazier from there.

Partial transcript via Twitter/X:

ALENCIA JOHNSON: “[Trump] is championing a bill that would take voting rights away from a lot of black people in this country.”

JENNINGS: “Wait, what voting rights is he taking away from black voters?”

ALENCIA JOHNSON: “Oh, if we look at the SAVE Act… That is actually going to continue to disenfranchise overwhelmingly a lot of people of color.”

JENNINGS: “How?”

ALENCIA JOHNSON: “There are so many civil rights organizations that have run the data. If we look at the way that it is going to disenfranchise black voters.”

JENNINGS: “How?”

ALENCIA JOHNSON: “It’s the same reason why Chuck Schumer called it Jim Crow 2.0.”

JENNINGS: “You haven’t said how yet!”

“76% of black voters think we should show an ID to vote, 80% of Hispanic voters, 83% of the American people. Are you saying that black voters are too dumb to know what’s good for them? It sounds pretty condescending to me!”

Watch the clip below:

Scott Jennings ignites CHAOS on CNN when he asks “how” the SAVE Act strips voting rights from people of color.

Trump-Endorsed Texas Republican Senate Nominee Ken Paxton revealed in newly released audio tapes that John Cornyn, still triggered by his primary loss to the MAGA favorite, wants him to lose and “to teach those Republicans a lesson.”

Cornyn allegedly said, “It’s going to be hard to learn, but they need to know that their decisions have consequences. We need to make sure they understand it.”

If any Republicans deserve to learn a lesson in an electoral defeat, it’s John Cornyn and other Senate RINOs who prevented meaningful legislation from passing while Republicans were in control for the last year and a half.

This is the latest leak from a series of audio tapes recorded at a September 24 gathering in DC.

Various snippets from the meeting have been leaked since last week in a coordinated attempt to hurt Paxton.

First, the New York Times published audio from the meeting; then, Politico, Axios, and the Texas Tribune obtained different tapes that aren’t even damaging to Paxton and used them to push a hoax. Trump has stood by Paxton despite attempts by the media to drive a wedge between the two.

In the latest leak, Paxton exposes Cornyn to lobbyists and donors. In Paxton's telling, Cornyn is "clearly not helping" and "wants me to lose."

Paxton said his friend, who ran into Cornyn at a restaurant in Dallas, told Cornyn, ”I realize it's hard to lose an election, but it shows a lot of character that you're supporting the ticket and you're supporting Ken Paxton.”

"And Cornyn’s face went red," according to Paxton.

"He backed off and said, ‘Paxon's going to lose. We need to teach those Republicans a lesson. It's going to be hard to learn, but they need to know that their decisions have consequences. We need to make sure they understand it.'"

"That's what he's trying to do. That's John Cornyn," Paxton added.

More from CNN:

CNN has not independently confirmed Paxton’s account, and a Cornyn representative, Rob Jesmer, told CNN that the conversation at the restaurant did not happen.

“If Sen. Cornyn wanted Ken to lose, I can assure you he’d be more active in the campaign,” Jesmer, a longtime political strategist for Cornyn, said. “He has said he supports the Republican ticket. Given all Ken has said and done, I think that’s a pretty good place for Sen. Cornyn to be.”

Asked for comment on the audio, Paxton’s campaign dismissed it as “a story that doesn’t exist” but noted that Paxton “has called, texted, and offered to have a conversation with Senator Cornyn.”

“Like all Texans, General Paxton appreciates his decades of service to the Lone Star State,” Paxton senior adviser Nick Maddux said in a statement. “We hope he will join us in our fight to preserve the institution that is the United States Senate and help save our majority.”

US forces disabled a cargo vessel attempting to violate President Trump’s naval blockade on Saturday.

A US military fighter jet struck the vessel and disabled the ship’s propulsion without harming any crew members, CENTCOM said.

Full statement from CENTCOM:

U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces disabled a commercial cargo vessel in the Gulf of Oman, Oct. 10, after the ship’s crew ignored repeated warnings and attempted to run the ongoing naval blockade against Iran.

A U.S. military fighter jet struck the stern of Panama-flagged M/V Ocean Molica (also known as the “Arika Sun”) with a precision munition, fully disabling the ship’s propulsion without harming the crew.

The large cargo vessel was attempting to transit regional waters after having previously departed an Iranian port.

CENTCOM forces resumed America’s blockade against all ships entering or departing Iranian ports on July 14. Four commercial vessels have been disabled and 135 ships have been turned around during three months of strict enforcement.

Additionally, U.S. forces have destroyed 10 tankers linked to the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps’ multibillion-dollar shadow network over the same period.

All mariners are advised to heed blockade warnings from CENTCOM forces. Crews should also continue to monitor Notice to Mariners broadcasts and contact U.S. naval forces on bridge-to-bridge channel 16 when operating in the Gulf of Oman and Strait of Hormuz approaches.

WATCH:

President Trump on Thursday announced that the US will not be attacking Iran prior to the midterm elections.

“We are having productive discussions with the Islamic Republic of Iran,” Trump said.

“I want to make it clear to everybody that, while Iran is in very bad condition, both Economically and Militarily, and while the Blockade will remain in full force and effect, with Oil flowing in Record Numbers of Barrels through the Hormuz Strait (22 Million Barrels, last night alone, with not one barrel coming from, or going to, Iran!), we will not be attacking Iran at any time prior to the Midterm Elections to be held in the United States on November 3rd,” Trump said.

Twelve people are dead and hundreds are injured after the latest Houthi missile attack on Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport.

The airport shut down operations on Saturday as officials assess the damage.

The US Government warned citizens to avoid Saudi Arabia’s King Khalid International Airport.

One US citizen died in the airport attack, officials said.

Multiple people were injured during an attack at Riyadh’s King Khalid International Airport, which has now shut down operations as officials assess the damage, according to the country’s aviation authority.

The AP reported:

The latest attack on the international airport in Saudi Arabia’s capital of Riyadh killed 12 people and injured over 300 others, civil aviation authorities said early Sunday, with some in critical condition. A Saudi-led coalition blamed Iran-backed Houthi rebels in neighboring Yemen.

It was the deadliest attack in any Gulf Arab country since the start of the Iran war, whose fronts have expanded to include the recent surge in fighting between the Houthis and Saudi-backed Yemeni government forces.

A missile struck a King Khalid International Airport complex housing terminals 3 and 4 for domestic flights, a regional official said, speaking on condition of anonymity because they weren’t authorized to speak to the media.

The Saudi statement said the dead included four Saudi citizens as well as two Bangladeshi nationals, a Palestinian, a U.S. citizen, an Egyptian, a Jordanian, a Syrian and a Sudanese. It said the injured were being treated at several hospitals.

President Trump was asked about the latest missile attack.

ICE deported a new batch of convicted gang members, killers, and sex offenders last week, and the agency posted two more sets of arrests in the days that followed.

Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin said the agency would not let the country become a sanctuary for illegal aliens and would not apologize for the arrests. The names in the release belonged to people already ordered to be removed — several of them years ago — who were still here.

Manuel Barahona-Rivera, a Honduran MS-13 member, was deported on Sept. 30. DHS said he had convictions for second-degree murder and marijuana possession, and a final removal order from Oct. 14, 2005. His entry date and place were unknown.

Jose Balmory Ramirez Rodriguez, a Salvadoran MS-13 member, was deported Oct. 2. His record included first-degree manslaughter, dangerous contraband in prison, and third-degree assault. He crossed the Texas border in February 2001 and was ordered to be removed in February 2007. He was deported that month but later came back into the United States.

Jorge Andres Chirinos, a Mexican suspected of membership in the 116 gang, was deported on Sept. 30. DHS listed convictions for second-degree murder and terroristic threats. He claimed that he entered in 2002, and his removal order was issued on Sept. 23, 2026.

Jose Refugio Rangel Machuca, a Mexican member of Compton Varrio 70s, was deported on Oct. 2. DHS said he had two attempted murder convictions, plus counts of shooting at an inhabited dwelling and receiving stolen property. His removal order was dated Sept. 22.

Jaime Ramirez-Diaz, a Mexican suspected Sinaloa cartel member, was deported on Sept. 29. His convictions were felony armed robbery and shoplifting. A removal order from Aug. 21, 2014, had not kept him out of the United States.

Ever Magdiel Mejia-Vasquez, a Honduran suspected Maravilla Salva Trucha member, was deported on Oct. 2. DHS listed possession of cocaine base for sale, assault with a firearm, first-degree robbery, and criminal threats. His removal order was from Aug. 19.

Pedro Ruiz-Cisneros, a Mexican Barrio Azteca member, was deported on Oct. 2 after five earlier removals in 1994, 2003, 2009, 2014, and 2018. His convictions included aggravated assault with a deadly weapon, robbery, theft, and illegal re-entry into the United States. The removal order dated to March 18, 2003.

Maria Solis-Iriqui, a Mexican suspected Crips member, was deported on Oct. 1. DHS listed felony assault, felony property damage, theft, and drug possession. She said she entered in June 1991.

Marvin Ernesto Leon-Ceron, a Salvadoran MS-13 member, was deported on Sept. 29 with a second-degree assault conviction and arrests for disorderly conduct and failing to obey an order.

Isidro Cruz-Estefina, a Mexican Latin Kings member, was deported on Sept. 30 after earlier removals in 2004 and 2009. His record included burglary, resisting an officer, and unlawful possession of a weapon by a felon.

The same week, DHS posted arrests that had not yet become removals. On Wednesday, the department said the previous day’s take included pedophiles, animal abusers, and drug traffickers.

Every day criminal illegal aliens across America are arrested by patriotic men and women of @ICEgov.

Yesterday, ICE arrested pedophiles, animal abusers, drug traffickers, and other public safety threats from our communities.

— Homeland Security (@DHSgov) October 7, 2026

On Thursday, DHS posted another day’s arrests and said there would be no sanctuary for those taken into custody.

If you are in this country illegally, we will find, arrest, and remove you from our nation. There will be no sanctuary for illegal aliens.

Yesterday, the brave patriots of @ICEgov arrested illegal alien murderers, sexual predators, and kidnappers from our communities.

— Homeland Security (@DHSgov) October 8, 2026

That batch of arrestees included those with convictions for murder, assault on an officer, firearm possession, abduction, strangulation, and possession with intent to distribute.

Legendary country rap star Kid Rock tore into the mainstream media with fire to open his speech, where he introduced President Trump at his Clarksville, Tennessee, rally on Saturday.  

The longtime supporter of the President, who performed at Trump’s inauguration rally on January 19, opened for Trump with a scathing rebuke of the Democrats, the Islamic takeover in America, and the wicked mainstream media enabling the destruction of our country.

“It’s an honor to introduce a man who can turn a five-minute appearance into a full-on outbreak of TDS syndrome. I mean, speaking of Trump derangement syndrome, I see the media is here tonight,” he said to open his speech.

“Literally, President Trump could walk across the Cumberland River, and tomorrow the headline would say President Trump refuses to swim,” he continued, labeling the media “public enemy number one.”

“When it comes to honest debate, too often we see facts twisted into half-truths, outrage sold for clicks and views, and a liberal agenda packaged as honest reporting. Division has become their business model, and business is booming,” he added.

“Different opinions, democrats, blue dog Democrats, never scared me. Thinking differently, and having the freedom to do so, is what makes this country great.”

Then, he went off. “Cut the bullsh*t. Give us the Facts,” he said.

“That’s one thing I know about President Trump: You’re never left wondering what he thinks or where he stands. This man’s not a puppet. He’s the first president I can recall who doesn’t need a teleprompter to tell you what he thinks.”

“He’s without a doubt the toughest, most resilient president we’ve ever had. Knocked down, counted out, constantly dragged through the mud — and yet he gets up every day and fights for you and me. And he’s delivered,” he added.

WATCH:

When introducing President Trump to the stage, Kid Rock told the massive crowd, “You know what to do: show up, vote red, and do not let them California our Tennessee.”

“Now please welcome the 45th, probably the 46th, definitely the 47th President of the United States of America, Donald J. Trump,” he said before Trump walked out to Lee Greenwood’s “God Bless the USA.”

They were chanting USA for Trump when he took the podium.
