Politico also reported that they’ve been sent internal memos from an anonymous account that details some of the Trump campaign’s internal operations.

Trump campaign spokesperson, Steven Cheung, declined to say if they had further information substantiating the campaigns’ suggestion that it was targeted by Iran.

Cheung said, “On Friday, a new report from Microsoft found that Iranian hackers broke into the account of a ‘high ranking official’ on the U.S. presidential campaign in June 2024, which coincides with the close timing of President Trump’s selection of a vice presidential nominee.”

According to Washington Examiner:

Former President Donald Trump’s campaign has reported it has been hacked, and Politico confirmed confidential memos from the campaign were sent to them.

“These documents were obtained illegally from foreign sources hostile to the United States, intended to interfere with the 2024 election and sow chaos throughout our Democratic process,” Trump campaign spokesperson Steven Cheung said in a statement to the Washington Examiner.

Cheung did not provide confirmation to Politico for how he knew the hackers were from Iran.

The news outlet reported they received documents from a person who called themselves only “Robert” from an AOL email account, and the records included research on Sens. J.D. Vance (R-OH), and Marco Rubio (R-FL).

After the assassination attempt on Trump, reports emerged that there had been unrelated Iranian plots to kill the former president. In his statement to the outlet, Cheung referred to those reports as he accused Iran of this hacking.

Politico described in an article how they came into possession of the information and hinted at some of the data in it:

On July 22, POLITICO began receiving emails from an anonymous account. Over the course of the past few weeks, the person — who used an AOL email account and identified themselves only as “Robert” — relayed what appeared to be internal communications from a senior Trump campaign official. A research dossier the campaign had apparently done on Trump’s running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance, which was dated Feb. 23, was included in the documents. The documents are authentic, according to two people familiar with them and granted anonymity to describe internal communications. One of the people described the dossier as a preliminary version of Vance’s vetting file.

The research dossier was a 271-page document based on publicly available information about Vance’s past record and statements, with some — such as his past criticisms of Trump — identified in the document as “POTENTIAL VULNERABILITIES.” The person also sent part of a research document about Florida Sen. Marco Rubio, who was also a finalist for the vice presidential nomination.

The person said they had a “variety of documents from [Trump’s] legal and court documents to internal campaign discussions.”

Asked how they obtained the documents, the person responded: “I suggest you don’t be curious about where I got them from. Any answer to this question, will compromise me and also legally restricts you from publishing them.”

This is a breaking story and will be updated when more is known.

SURPRISE! Democrats, Corporate Media SHOCKED That Soros & Co Are Bankrolling Anti-Zionist Protests https://americanconservativemovement.com/surprise-democrats-corporate-media-shocked-that-soros-co-are-bankrolling-anti-zionist-protests/ https://americanconservativemovement.com/surprise-democrats-corporate-media-shocked-that-soros-co-are-bankrolling-anti-zionist-protests/#comments Mon, 06 May 2024 08:09:14 +0000 https://americanconservativemovement.com/?p=203252 DCNF(DCNF)—Some Democrats and liberal media outlets appear to be discovering the connection between big Biden donors funding radical left causes, including the pro-Palestine protests seen across the U.S., which are now coming back to bite President Joe Biden as he seeks re-election in November.

A new report from Politico Sunday revealed that donors like Bill Gates, George Soros, David Rockefeller Jr., and Nick Pritzker are supporting organizations like Jewish Voice for Peace and IfNotNow, which have been responsible for many of the protests at college campuses. These groups, according to the outlet, are funded by the Tides Foundation which is funded by Soros and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation.

Mega Democratic donors funding radical left causes though has been an obvious connection for many Republicans, who have repeatedly called out Soros and other donor ties for some time. In early April, the Daily Caller first obtained a copy of a letter from Republican New York Rep. Nick Langworthy to the Federal Communications Commission (FCC), which called on them to investigate Soros’ purchase of the nation’s second largest radio company, Audacy Inc. — another venture Soros has embarked on prior to the 2024 elections.

Since mid-April, pro-Palestine protests at U.S. college campuses have demanded that universities divest their funds from companies connected to Israel. While some may have had peaceful moments, many erupted into clashes between police and activists as they have violated schools’ policies by building encampments on campuses and vandalizing property.

Many Republicans since the beginning of the protests, which began at Columbia University, have called out Biden’s lack of leadership surrounding the issue. Nearly four days after the initial protests at Columbia, and nearly 100 arrests made at the time, Biden released a statement condemning the “harassment and calls for violence against Jews,” however, notably did not call out the school. (RELATED: Climate Activist And Liberal Billionaire Quietly Gobbles Up Rural Land)

While the shocking news is hitting Democrats, Politico’s piece was met with backlash, as users overwhelmingly agreed that the connection between the protests and far-left Democratic donors wasn’t surprising at all.

During an interview with Biden’s campaign co-chair Mitch Landrieu, CNN host Jake Tapper pressed the Biden advisor on the connection between the donors and groups, asking if they should be funded.

“Politico has a story out this morning, noting that a lot of the multimillionaires and billionaires funding the most explicitly anti-Israel groups, ones that think Israel has no right to exist that are active on campuses, that these groups are funded by big Biden donors, the Pritzker’s, the Gates’, George Soros, David Rockefeller, Jr. Should they stop funding these groups? Are they causing unrest for the American people?” Tapper asked.

“Well, let me say this, I think that everybody, as the president has said, needs to kind of get focused in on the very core principles of what our Constitution allows and what our Constitution protects. And that is this, everybody has a right to protest, but they have to protest peacefully. If they’re protesting violently that has to end, there’s no place for that. There’s no place for anti-semitism. There’s no place for Islamophobia,” Landrieu responded.

During an interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation,” Democratic Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman questioned the protesters’ demands by pointing out that Hamas appeared to not be a hot topic for them. The Democratic senator echoed his statements online, quoting Politico’s piece and stating that the activists “should be demanding Hamas to release the hostages and surrender.”

Just four days ago, a Daily Beast report claimed that the connection between Soros and pro-Palestine protests on campus were the “target of right-wing conspiracy theories.” The article called out an interview from Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson on NewsNation, in which the lawmaker called for the FBI to be “all over” the protests, asking if they could have been funded by “George Soros or overseas entities.”

Another piece from a Washington Post columnist Phillip Bump, claimed that the idea of Soros’s Open Society Foundations (OSF) helping fund protests across the country is “so tenuous as to be obviously contrived.”

The president’s position has been at odds with a key voting bloc for Democrats, as many young voters have been behind calling for a ceasefire in the Israel-Hamas conflict. While the issue is not fully attributed to Biden’s falling support with young Americans, it appears to be having an effect in Michigan, a state that voted for him in 2020 and flipped from its support of former President Donald Trump in 2016.

During the state’s primary this year, many Muslim Americans who once voted for Biden withheld their support due to the president’s position on the Israeli conflict. While Biden won the primary by 81.1%, an estimated 13.3% voted “uncommitted,” with protest voters claiming he is “funding war and genocide in Gaza.”

He Can’t Get 15 People to Come See Him at an Iowa Pizza Ranch https://americanconservativemovement.com/he-cant-get-15-people-to-come-see-him-at-an-iowa-pizza-ranch/ https://americanconservativemovement.com/he-cant-get-15-people-to-come-see-him-at-an-iowa-pizza-ranch/#comments Sat, 21 Oct 2023 20:54:14 +0000 https://americanconservativemovement.com/?p=197866 Treacherous former VP Mike Pence is toast. Nobody likes him. Sometimes it seems he doesn’t even like himself. And absolutely nobody with a brain thinks he has any hope at all of winning the Republican nomination for president.

A recent article by campaign tagalong Adam Wren, writing for Politico, seemed to lament Pence’s poor showing in the polls. The article spent less space explaining why he should be the nominee than it spent sadly reporting how badly Pence has wanted to be president. Contrary to popular belief, he didn’t decide to run for president earlier this year in response to the prospects of his former boss getting the nomination again. He’s been dreaming of the Oval Office for decades.

But it ain’t gonna happen. Even while giving a stark but woeful walkthrough of his efforts in Iowa the author made it clear that he, Pence’s supporters, and even Pence’s staff have no real hope at all. According to the article:

It’s difficult to find a political prognosticator who is not on his payroll who gives Pence any plausible shot at winning the nomination, a reality he acknowledged on the trail earlier this month. “The media has already decided how all this is going to end,” he told just 13 people at a Pizza Ranch in Red Oak. “But as you all know, I think Iowa has a unique opportunity to give our party, give our country a fresh start.” He encouraged them to “keep an open mind.”

Pence, who evinces a just-happy-to-be-here vibe, is still hoping, pinning those dreams on evangelical-rich Iowa. So deep is his hope that he gave $150,000 of his own money to his campaign in the weeks before his dismal fundraising report. (A large sum for Pence, about two-thirds of his approximately $230,000 salary as VP, during which he often joked he came from “the Joseph A. Bank wing of the West Wing.”) And that verse about faith from the Apostle Paul’s epistle to the Hebrews has been on the former vice president’s mind. He posted it to X (the platform formerly known as Twitter) a few weeks ago on Sept.10. He posted it again on Sept. 24.

“Mike Pence’s greatest strengths are his doggedness and his belief that God has a plan for him,” his longtime friend Mike Murphy, a former Republican member of the Indiana House of Representatives, told me. “But he’s going to have to be open to discerning the difference between his plan and God’s plan.”

It’s difficult to imagine that Pence’s ambition is the only thing driving him. He’s pacing to be lucky to place 4th in any of the early states and his campaign is broke. He might not make it to the debate stage next month if he can’t get more people to donate, and who’s going to donate to someone polling as low as he is?

Is Mike Pence another Chris Christie, a plant by the UniParty Swamp to cast aspersions at Donald Trump to draw fire? If so, it hasn’t been working for a while. Trump has focused almost solely on Ron DeSantis and occasionally Nikki Haley.

It seems most likely that he’s simply delusional. He has ambitions that are hard to let go and he’s willing to take abuse all the way to the bitter end. Whatever his reason for staying in, he won’t last for long after the Iowa caucus. With 13 people showing up at his events, he might not even make it to the first battle.

Leave your thoughts about Mike Pence or the election at The Liberty Daily’s Substack.

Politico and Democrat Candidate Weaponized a Sexual Assault to Smear His Republican Opponent https://americanconservativemovement.com/politico-and-democrat-candidate-weaponized-a-sexual-assault-to-smear-his-republican-opponent/ https://americanconservativemovement.com/politico-and-democrat-candidate-weaponized-a-sexual-assault-to-smear-his-republican-opponent/#respond Sun, 09 Oct 2022 15:44:39 +0000 https://americanconservativemovement.com/?p=182922 The state of modern day election politics and shock-jock journalism allows old lines of integrity and good taste to be blurred. Our polarized nation has become far too accepting of tabloidized campaign tactics, including mudslinging at the lowest levels. But there are lines even the evildoers in corporate media and politics should never cross. One such line is exploiting sexual crimes against a candidate.

Leftist rag Politico and Democrat Congressman Frank Mrvan do not recognize that line. They used a sexual assault committed against Mrvan’s Republican opponent to smear her a month before the election.

According to Fox News:

Jennifer-Ruth Green, the Republican candidate in the race to represent Indiana’s 1st Congressional District, is livid after Politico published details about her sexual assault while in the military, without her permission, and blames her opponent for “illegally” obtaining the information. But now she’s ready to speak out.

In a profile of Green’s career and candidacy in the Indiana congressional race, Politico reporter Adam Wren used the documents, which the outlet claimed “were obtained by a public records request and provided to Politico by a person outside the Mrvan campaign” to report last week that “an Iraqi serviceman sexually assaulted her by grabbing her breast and exposing himself” when “she and a small group of officers visited the national training center.”

Speaking exclusively to Fox News Digital about the piece from Politico, Green said her political opponent, Rep. Frank Mrvan, and Politico were behaving like her assailant by ignoring her pleas to not disclose that she was sexually assaulted while stationed in Iraq.

“The reality of it is – like I said at one point in my life to my assailant, ‘No. Please stop. Don’t.’ – and he did what he wanted to do … This is the exact same situation all over again, all because there was a man who wanted some sort of gratification,” Green said. “Congressman Frank Mrvan gets his gratification of trying to think he’s smearing my name. Adam Wren gets his gratification of thinking he’s going to get a good smear story out of it. And all it does is essentially reopen wounds for victims.”

The story here is that a corporate media outlet and the White male Democrat they support weaponized a hideous sexual attack against a Black woman to taint her campaign. But you won’t see wokesters paying any attention to it.
