THE REAL TRUMP PLATFORM

THE REAL TRUMP PLATFORM – Kamala Harris can’t run on her disastrous record, and she can’t run against President Trump’s historic record of accomplishment. So what does she do? Lie.

Enter the Lie Of The Year: Kamala Harris’s claim that it’s “Trump’s Project 2025.

Project 2025 is not President Trump’s agenda. You’d think that a candidate already facing serious questions about her central role in lying about Biden’s cognitive decline wouldn’t base her entire campaign on another lie, but here we are.

Every time you hear Harris or Democrats say, “Project 2025 is the Trump Agenda,” they are lying.  Not only has President Trump said that Project 2025 is not his agenda repeatedly, including explicitly disavowing it, but USA Today also fact checked this bogus claim, labeling it as false:  “Project 2025 is a political playbook created by the Heritage Foundation and dozens of other conservative groups, not Trump.”                                 

For those interested in the truth, here is President Trump’s real platform:

These 20 promises are a unifying proposal to Make America Great Again. Given the popularity and success of these ideas, it’s no wonder Harris has resorted to simply making things up. For more information on President Trump’s and the RNC’s platform, go to: http://DonaldjTrump.com/platform.

Governor Landry Orders Flags at Half-Staff in Honor of Firefighter Corey Comperatore

Baton Rouge, LA- Today, Governor Jeff Landry signed an Executive Order to fly flags at half-staff for Corey Comperatore who was killed at a Pennsylvania rally for Donald J. Trump. The flags of the United States and the State of Louisiana shall be flown at half-staff over the State Capitol and all state buildings from sunrise until sunset on July 18, 2024. Executive Order is attached.

On July 13, 2024, former fire chief Corey Comperatore lost his life when he shielded his family with his own body when shots rang out from the rooftop of a nearby building. He dedicated his life to serving his country as a United States Army Reserve soldier and a fire chief at the Buffalo Volunteer Fire Department. He will be laid to rest today, July 18, 2024, in Freeport, Pennsylvania, with friends and family honoring his legacy. 

“Exercising our First Amendment rights should never come at the cost of the ultimate sacrifice, even when attending a political rally. Mr. Comperatore is a hero, and Louisiana is proud to honor him today and every day for his selfless acts,” said Governor Landry.

Kennedy to Louisianians following assassination attempt on Pres. Trump: “The American people deserve answers” and “We’ll figure this out together”

“. . . the American people deserve answers to that, but let's wait and get the facts. . . . We'll figure this out together. In the meantime, let’s all respect each other’s humanity.” 

Watch Kennedy’s full statement here.

MADISONVILLE, La. – Sen. John Kennedy (R-La.) today made the following statement regarding the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump at a campaign rally in Butler, Pa.

“Why? That's what most Americans are asking themselves today, ‘Why did President Trump almost lose his life?’

“First, there aren’t words in English, it seems to me, to describe how horrible the attempt on President Trump's life was. I know it could’ve been worse, but it was really, really bad. And, inevitably, Americans today, as I said, are asking themselves, ‘Why?’

“Look, America hasn't been happy for a while, and this crosses all political spectrums. It costs more to live in our country today. Many people on both sides of the political spectrum are upset about the open border. Crime is . . . still bad. People are scared. They see the rise of China and the rise of Iran and the rise of Russia, and they instinctively know that [those regimes’] domination creates a world that's not safe for democracy or America. And this has led to disagreement in our politics. That disagreement is inevitable.

“It's been especially sharp because I think it reflects two things: It reflects the unhappiness that I've talked about, but it also reflects the fact that all Americans, they care deeply about their families, and they care deeply about their country.

“I don't have an answer for why, but what I will respectfully suggest is that we wait and try to figure out why together. Don't make assumptions. Don't jump to conclusions. I've already heard some people saying, ‘Well, the shooter was left-wing,’ or ‘the shooter was a right-winger,’ or ‘it was all political.’ We just don't know. Maybe he wasn’t left-wing or right-wing. Maybe he was just a broken wing. Maybe he was a nut. Maybe he was mentally ill.

“I've also seen people pointing fingers at our government officials about how could they have allowed this to happen. Well, the American people deserve answers to that, but let's wait and get the facts.

“So, I just wanted to say that—it was in my head and on my heart—to the people of America and the people of Louisiana: We'll figure this out together. In the meantime, let’s all respect each other’s humanity.”

Sen. Kennedy continues to pray for the loved ones of Corey Comperatore, who attended the rally with his family and died while protecting his wife and daughter.

“Becky and I are praying for the family of the attendee who died this evening at Pres. Trump’s rally as well as for the quick recovery of all others who are injured. Political violence has no place in America,” said Kennedy Saturday as he thanked God for protecting Pres. Trump and others that evening.

TRUMP MOMENTUM

“Trump Widens Lead After Biden’s Debate Debacle” read The New York Times headline, and the headline was right (a welcome change from The New York Times)!

In fact, a series of polls show President Trump with a commanding lead over Joe Biden and any Democrat that may take his place. The Democrats are even in a place where they are bragging about polls showing them losing. As we mentioned earlier this week, President Trump is playing offense all over the electoral map. This isn’t just about Crooked Joe Biden. The Democrats have failed our country, and in November, Americans will hold them responsible at the ballot box.

Debate Domination

It wasn’t even close. President Donald Trump won the debate in a landslide! Even CNN’s instant poll gave President Trump the resounding victory, and it’s not hard to see why. President Trump offered a clear vision for our country of a booming economy, a secure border, and peace through strength.

  • President Trump delivered the greatest debate performance in history to the largest voter audience in history, while Joe Biden was too incompetent to defend his record on inflation and the invasion at the border.

  • The contrast was clear: President Trump made the case for how he can improve the lives of every American, while Joe Biden lied, invented stories, and couldn't articulate a single plan to make things less expensive or secure our southern border.

  • Biden should not receive a participation trophy for standing upright for 90 minutes.

  • He should be fired for being unable to explain why he's ruined our country.

  • Joe Biden had no excuses for his disastrous performance.

  • He took a weeklong vacation at Camp David - all while ISIS terrorists run loose in the United States - and Biden still didn't have any answers.

  • The question isn't whether Joe Biden can make it through the next 4 years - it's whether Joe can make it to the election.

  • If we want to save America, if we want to make life better for the American people, if we want to bring back the American Dream, we need to Fire Joe Biden and Hire President Donald J. Trump.

  • Everything is more expensive under Joe Biden:

    • Mortgages are up 90%.

    • Gasoline is up 50%.

    • Bread is up 41%.

    • Eggs are up 40%.

    • Baby food is up 28%.

  • Joe Biden has caused Americans to lose $28,000 per household in inflation costs.

  • Inflation was up 1.4% when President Trump left office.

    • Cumulative inflation is up 20% under Joe Biden.

  • Joe Biden is running a $2 trillion federal budget deficit this year.

  • The unprecedented crisis at the border is due to Joe Biden.

    • Joe Biden has allowed 10 million illegal migrants to cross the southern border.

      • There are now over 150k missing migrant children in the United States.

      • There are ISIS terrorists at large in the United States.

      • There is a 43% increase in violent crime victims under Biden, much due to the Biden Migrant Crime Wave sweeping across our country.

  • Biden’s weak leadership has emboldened America’s adversaries.

    • 13 service members died because of Joe Biden's incompetence during the disastrous withdrawal of Afghanistan.

    • Hamas launched an assault against our greatest ally in the Middle East – Israel.

    • Russia has started war in Ukraine and Biden has failed to stand up to Putin.

    • President Trump will safeguard America and preserve peace through strength.

    • President Trump was the first American leader since Ronald Reagan not to start a war.

  • Don’t forget - 10% for "The Big Guy.”

Bottom Line: Joe Biden further embarrassed the United States with last night’s debate performance, and he is too weak to serve as Commander in Chief. The contrast between President Trump and Biden is clear—it's time to retire Joe Biden once and for all and allow President Trump to Make America Great Again.

Killers Continue To Abuse Biden’s Open Border Policies

Joe Biden’s open border policies have led to innocent Americans being raped and slaughtered, yet Biden still refuses to secure the border.

What you need to know:

  • 170,000-plus illegal immigrants were encountered attempting to cross the U.S.-Mexico border in May.

    • That’s approximately 5,500 illegal aliens crossing the border every single day.

    • That’s a 185% increase from the average number of May apprehensions during the Trump administration.

    1. 8,642 unaccompanied children were encountered.

    2. 82,189 illegal immigrants were encountered from countries outside the Northern Triangle and Mexico, showing that Biden's crisis is global.

    3. At least 90 people on the terror watchlist have been encountered trying to enter the U.S. between ports of entry this fiscal year.

  • Biden’s fake executive order has done absolutely nothing to secure the border.

  • The blood is on his hands as U.S. citizens are raped and murdered by illegal aliens who have no legal right to be in the country.

  • Now, Biden is doubling down on his orchestrated invasion by offering mass amnesty to a million illegals already in the country — putting them, and their families, on the fast-track for citizenship and the public benefits that come with it.

  • Biden doesn’t care about the American lives that will forever be destroyed by the illegal criminals he is importing.

  • He also doesn’t care that law-abiding taxpayers, crushed by inflation, are forced to pay for free food, housing, and healthcare for illegals.

  • It doesn’t have to be this way.

Bottom Line: Biden’s open border policies aren't compassionate; they are deadly. On day one, President Trump will seal the border and begin the largest domestic deportation operation in American history.

Let's Get Ready To Rumble

“The media wants to lower Joe Biden’s debate performance bar so low he gets a participation trophy simply for standing upright for 90 minutes, but make no doubt about it - Biden will be highly prepared and alert on debate night, relying on the same perfectly calibrated dosage used to deliver his widely praised 2024 State of the Union Address or his 2012 thrashing of Paul Ryan in the VP debate. 
 
“The true benchmark for Thursday’s debate should be whether or not Joe Biden can defend his disastrous record on inflation and the out-of-control border invasion versus President Trump’s unquestioned first-term record of success, and if Biden can speak for himself without the overt participation and interference of two CNN moderators.
 
“If given a fair opportunity to present his vision for America, President Trump will lay out exactly how he plans to improve the lives of every American suffering from everything becoming too expensive and every community being turned into a border community thanks to Joe Biden’s incompetence.” — Steven Cheung
 

What you need to know:


Bottom Line: Americans, get your popcorn ready. The time has finally come for Joe Biden to defend his awful record and destructive agenda.

LA FREEDOM CAUCUS SUPPORTS DONALD TRUMP

BATON ROUGE—The Louisiana Freedom Caucus issued the following statement in support of President Donald Trump following the illegitimate outcome of his political persecution.

“We all watched the Soviet Union-style communist show trial unfold in New York City with sadness and disgust as today’s Democratic Party engineered yet another Big Lie in an attempt to take out their political opponent. Yet they keep making Donald Trump stronger as his support continues to increase while they continue to abuse their power at every level.

“What has come from this trial is the exposure of the lengths these desperate Democrats will go to hold on to their corrupt power. They will stop at nothing, up to and including the complete destruction of the Rule of Law. This is stunning proof this administration cannot be trusted with the reigns of power again. We all look forward to November and, between then and now, we will redouble efforts to make sure this travesty of justice does not stand on Election Day.”

LAGOP: President Trump Has Been Indicted In Manhattan On A False Charge!

BATON ROUGE, LA— President Donald J. Trump has been indicted by a Manhattan grand jury convened by the corrupt and biased far-left District Attorney Alvin Bragg. Recall that if elected, he would "...get Trump."

What's more, to create a charge on which President Trump could be indicted, Mr. Bragg had to resort to a chain of absurd legal theories which will not hold for a moment in any unbiased court. What we are witnessing is the weaponization of America's once great system of justice, which today suffered a severe blow.

The issues presented by the prosecution should not be political in nature. They should not pit Republicans against Democrats. No, these issues are far more fundamental than that. What is before us now is the question of whether our system of justice will remain impartial or whether it will sink to the level of the many corrupt and tyrannical regimes where the life and property of every man and woman are subject to the whims of despots and ruthless ideologues. 

The deliberate targeting of political opponents by progressive, leftist prosecutors is an affront to every American. This is prosecutorial misconduct in its vilest form, and it is a disgrace to our country which cannot be allowed to stand. Mr. Bragg is the one who should be prosecuted, not President Trump!

Rally in Support of President Trump and Against the Politicization of American Justice

Hosted by the East Baton Rouge Republican Party

The public is invited to a Rally for President Trump and Against Politicization of the Justice System at 11:30 a.m. this Tuesday, March 21, 2023, on the steps of the Louisiana State Capitol Building in Baton Rouge. The rally is sponsored by the Republican Party of East Baton Rouge Parish, chaired by former Rep. Woody Jenkins. Jenkins served as State Chairman for Trump for President in 2016 and as a member of the Electoral College at-Large for President Trump in 2020.

News reports indicate that President Trump may be arrested Tuesday on charges filed by the District Attorney in New York City. Jenkins said the charges are trumped up and part of an ongoing effort by Democrats in Congress and key officials in the Justice Department to politicize the justice system and criminalize political opposition. "They are desperate to find a crime to hang on President Trump, and they are truly groping for something," Jenkins said.
 
"Beginning before the President was even sworn in, we saw the system perverted with members of Congress calling for him to be impeached. The National Security Advisor, Michael Flynn, was arrested on bogus charges. After that, there have been one fake allegation after another calling for President Trump either to be impeached or arrested. Their goal today is to rig the system by somehow preventing him from running in 2024. People are outraged and deeply troubled by what they see happening to our country. These reckless actions are unacceptable and condemned by the people of Louisiana."

Jenkins urged people to come to the rally and show their support for the President and the rule of law. He said a number of local and state officials will speak.

Jenkins asked people who plan to attend to email him at woodyjenkins2020@hotmail.com to let him know they are coming.

Jeff Landry steps into legal fight over Trump's handling of top secret documents found at Mar-a-Lago

Attorney General Jeff Landry has stepped into Donald Trump’s legal fight with the Biden administration over Trump’s handling of classified documents after leaving office.

Landry signed on to a friend-of-the-court brief filed Tuesday by Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton in the 11th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in Florida, which is handling the legal dispute. The court is considering whether the Justice Department should be able to resume a criminal investigation into classified documents seized last month at Trump’s private Florida resort, Mar-a-Lago, or whether a special master should review the thousands of documents first.

LAGOP: The Raid of President Trump's Home

The August 8th raid on the residence of former President Trump is a precarious harbinger for the United States of America. The idea that the home of a former Chief Executive of the United States would be searched and then documents and materials seized in a fashion similar to a high level white collar or even dangerous criminal is startling and troubling. No one is above the law, but no one should be beneath the law, nor beyond the framework of respect due an ordinary citizen. A simple subpoena or call to Trump’s lawyers would have been a more appropriate action.

A politically-motivated and controlled Federal Bureau of Investigations and Department of Justice are two of the most dangerous things we can have in the United States of America. All aspects of investigations in our country must be politically-agnostic, and the actions of the DOJ (which includes the FBI) reek of partisanship and an effort end the political life of an individual who happens to in opposition to the current presidential administration. The events of 8 August on the face seem to be politically motivated and part of the effort to squash both an individual and a political movement.

The LAGOP resolutely stands for the rule of law throughout the United States of America. All citizens in this country deserves EVERY aspect of due process, the presumption of innocence and equal treatment under the law. Law enforcement, intelligence and the armed forces of this country must be politically neutral and in place ONLY to serve the public interest and to protect the integrity and safety of our citizenry and our country. What we have seen unfold in the news in the last 24 hours is troubling at best, and should give all Louisianians pause and concern. The LAGOP calls on all facets of law enforcement to resist being weaponized for any political purposes. Our republic will rise and fall on the principles of this country being run by the consent of the governed, and not at the whims of political bickering between parties.

If the United States and subsequently Louisiana are to remain free, we must all make a concerted to hold all facets of government and especially those executing governmental duties accountable for their actions. If the FBI and DOJ discover criminality in their searches, so be it. If they do not, they are duty bound to report both their actions and the results of the earth-shattering developments of the 8th of August, 2022. In turn, if the FBI and DOJ are engaging in criminal behavior, then they should be held accountable. If one person in our nation loses his or her civil liberties in a manner than is outside the bounds of law, then the liberties of all are in jeopardy. Free people should not fear their government, and the government should not behave in a way that intimidates, intrudes nor creates an atmosphere of fear.

Statement by Chairman Gurvich on the Mar-a-Lago Raid

“These are dark times for our nation…”
President Donald Trump

Late yesterday afternoon, a small army of FBI agents, some armed with machine guns, descended on the private home of Donald Trump. The unannounced raid was carried out pursuant to a search warrant issued under the authority of no less a federal statute than the Presidential Archives Act. (Yes, you read that correctly.) Now in order to gauge the seriousness of this grievous breach of presidential decorum, you should know that this is the first such raid ever conducted against a sitting or former president of the United States in the two hundred and forty-six years of this republic, and it was conducted in the name of the Presidential Archives Act!

During the raid the FBI agents ransacked the President’s private home, broke into at least one safe, and removed numerous boxes of paper. Fortunately, the President was not at home and was spared the personal indignity of being present during the search and seizure. You can be assured that this was no accident, however- the raid must have been carefully planned at the highest levels of the Department of Justice (if not the White House itself) several weeks in advance.

Now the matter almost certainly could have been handled with negotiations and, if necessary, a subpoena and a hearing, but that is not how the progressive Democrats running this administration do things. They are all about the propaganda value of the moment (which explains the timing of the raid, just as folks were returning home to their TVs) and how it would further their pursuit of raw power by any means. Neither presidential decorum nor hundreds of years of precedent concern them in the least, because they do not care about the health of our republic; quite the contrary.

And once more their victim is Donald Trump, whose home was invaded even as Hillary Clinton remains unaccountable for the massive security breaches, email deletions, and much else, while no one in the Biden family has yet been indicted despite decades of illegal and unethical influence peddling and sundry other crimes too numerous to list in this space.

There is most certainly a double standard evident here, but please understand that this double standard is only one result of the intrigues of the progressive Democrats running the Biden administration. Their real goal is to tear down this republic to its roots and rebuild it on Marxist principles which will ultimately take away our dearly won rights as Americans. Dark days, indeed!

That, my friends, is the real nature of the on-going war that we have been fighting since at least the early Obama years. We have a major battle to win on Election Day, November 8th.

So if you want to save your country, your lifestyle, and a future for your children, vote Republican on November 8th. And if you’ve had enough of Democrat judicial tyranny, you might also wish to join the Republican Party of Louisiana. Just go to Geauxvote.com and click on Online Voter Registration. Most folks can save themselves a trip to the registrar of voters’ office and register to vote or change their party registration online. Join us and help make the difference!
