Joe Biden, 79, is the oldest president in U.S. history, but age is just a number, argued former President Trump on Monday.

Mr. Biden has said repeatedly that he intends to run for re-election in 2024. At 79, he is already the oldest president in American history , and concerns about his age ranked at the top of the list for Democratic voters who want the party to find an alternative.“I’m just going to come out and say it: I want younger […]
We Often Feel Like David Taking on Giants
Today’s Goliath is the Mainstream Media Industrial Complex that brainwashes the masses.
Our mission is very straightforward: To counter the false narratives and nefarious agendas destroying America today.

The battle for America’s present and future is too important for us to back down to the giants that stand in our way.
We need help. I don’t want to say “desperately,” but the need is definitely great. If you have the means, please donate through our GivingFuel page, PayPal, or our Substack page.
