Left's ridiculous ‘hatred' for Donald Trump called out following recent attack on federal agent
This comes after President Trump announced that hundreds of National Guard troops will temporarily take over the Washington DC police force after declaring a 'Crime Emergency' in the country's capital.
'This is unbelievable. Their hatred for President Trump is such that they would rather have crime in the streets than give Trump credit for trying to do something about it,' he told Sky News Australia.
'That's the activists, that's people like this nut.'

The billionaire who has changed Trump's mind
Days after calling for the firing of Intel 's CEO, President Donald Trump changed his mind following a 'very interesting' meeting with the executive. 'His success and rise is an amazing story,' Trump wrote in a Truth Social post. It's a story that's also made Lip-Bu Tan amazingly rich. The 65-year-old technology and venture capital industry veteran has amassed a fortune worth at least $US1.1 billion ($1.7 billion), according to the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, which is calculating Tan's net worth for the first time. The bulk of his fortune stems from Cadence Design Systems, a maker of chip design tools where Tan was chief executive officer for 12 years before joining Intel. He has sold shares worth more than $US575 million in the San Jose, California-based company, and still holds a $US500 million position, according to Bloomberg's calculations. A Bloomberg report late Thursday afternoon saying the Trump administration is in talks with Intel to have the US government potentially take a stake in the Silicon Valley chipmaker sent the company's shares up 7.4 per cent in New York. The stock gained 15 per cent since Tan's appointment as CEO in March, boosting the value of his stake to more than $US29 million. Loading It was Tan's tenure at Cadence, along with his other role as executive chairman of venture firm Walden International, that initially drew criticism from Washington. Trump ally and Republican Senator Tom Cotton sent a letter to Intel's board chair earlier this month questioning Tan's ties to China and his history at Cadence, which sold products to a Chinese military university. A day later, the president posted that Tan was 'highly CONFLICTED and must resign, immediately.' Tan called the claims 'misinformation' in a letter to employees. But his record of investing in China and the riches it has brought him had already cast a shadow over his work. In July, Cadence pleaded guilty to violating US export controls during Tan's tenure and took a $US140.6 million charge related to settling the cases. Earlier, in 2023, the US government had sent Tan a letter asking Walden to explain its investments after the San Francisco-based firm had invested in more than 100 Chinese companies.

Trump fuels concerns about ceding Ukraine land to Putin despite security guarantees
European leaders will meet Donald Trump at the White House on Monday in a show of unity with Ukraine in the troubled talks to end the war with Russia, after the US President sent another strong signal that Ukraine should cede territory to secure the peace. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky will be joined by at least six other European leaders in the high-stakes talks in the hope of persuading Trump to wield sanctions and other penalties against Russia to enforce a peace deal on better terms for Ukraine. Russian President Vladimir Putin has rejected a ceasefire and wants a peace agreement that cements Moscow's control of large stretches of eastern and southern Ukraine. Zelensky has rejected giving up territory and declared in Brussels on Sunday that his country's constitution did not allow him to do so, but he also signalled that the current front line should be the starting point for a negotiation. Trump and Zelensky clashed in the White House in February, when the American president complained that the Ukrainian leader would not accept a peace deal with Putin, and this raised fears in Europe of another confrontation on Monday. With Trump airing the idea that Ukraine should give up territory, the European leaders increased their support for Zelensky over the weekend by deciding to send at least six of their number to join him at the White House. The group comprises French President Emmanuel Macron, Germany Chancellor Friedrich Merz, UK Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer, Finnish President Alexander Stubb, European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen and NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte. Trump complained on Sunday in Washington DC that he was not being given enough credit for progress on a peace deal after his summit with Putin in Alaska last week.
