WOW: Trump vowed to "never" help Europe if it's attacked
A top European Union official claimed that former President Donald Trump privately vowed not to aid Europe in the event of a military attack. The report from Politico states that Trump made this declaration during a private meeting with European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen in 2020, according to French European Commissioner Thierry Breton, who was present. Trump reportedly warned that the US would not support Europe in case of an attack and declared NATO as dead, threatening to leave the alliance. The tense meeting also involved Trump mentioning a $400 billion debt owed by European nations for defense. This revelation follows concerns about Trump's commitment to NATO, particularly after his summit with Vladimir Putin in Helsinki. The report highlights the erratic nature of Trump's foreign policy decisions and the potential damage caused by such unpredictability on international agreements and alliances.
Fox host tells young people to start OnlyFans and stop complaining about money
Fox host Jesse Watters faced criticism after suggesting that frustrated young people should start an OnlyFans, a platform often used for sharing sexually charged content, instead of complaining about financial issues in the Biden economy. The controversial advice came in response to a video of a young person expressing frustration with the economic challenges they face despite working 40 hours a week. Watters' guest, Jimmy Failla, echoed the sentiment, claiming that young people should focus on selling pictures of their feet to make money. The segment received backlash for being callous and disconnected from the economic realities faced by many young individuals dealing with rising costs of living and student debt. Critics argue that the dismissive attitude fails to address systemic issues in society and the economic challenges that make it difficult for some to meet their basic needs despite hard work.

Nikki Haley & Ron DeSantis final debate (for 2nd place) goes horribly wrong
Days before the 2024 Republican primary in Iowa, CNN hosted a heated debate featuring Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley. The debate focused on Trump's lawyer's claim that presidential immunity might include ordering a political rival's assassination. DeSantis, uncertain of the limits, emphasized following the Constitution. In contrast, Nikki Haley unequivocally rejected the idea, positioning herself as more connected to reality. The discussion then shifted to immigration, where DeSantis declared zero amnesty, conflicting with international law on asylum and public opinion on DACA. The candidates were asked to admire each other, revealing a strained exchange. DeSantis complimented Haley's UN work, while Haley only acknowledged him as a good governor. The debate witnessed DeSantis making planned humorous remarks, and tensions rose with Haley accusing him of desperation. Ultimately, this is merely a contest for second place in the Republican primary, as Trump is positioned to win it easily.

IT'S OVER: Chris Christie ends campaign, caught on hot mic bashing rivals
Former New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has ended his 2024 presidential campaign. On the same day, he was caught on a hot microphone capturing his unvarnished views on rivals, including Nikki Haley and Ron DeSantis. Christie, who never polled above 3.5% criticized Haley, predicting she would "get smoked," and labeled DeSantis as scared. The hot mic audio highlighted Christie's assessment of the campaign spending, with Haley investing $68 million and DeSantis $59 million compared to his $12 million. Christie announced the suspension of his campaign, acknowledging the lack of a path to winning the nomination and receiving a tepid reaction from the crowd. Despite his sober, anti-Trump message, Christie struggled to resonate with the Republican electorate, reflecting the dominance of the MAGA movement within the party. As voting approaches, Christie's exit underscores the challenging landscape for Republicans who don't align with Trump's ideology, setting the stage for a battle within the party.
