Tucker Carlson Fawns Over Trump Ordering McDonald’s

Fox News star Tucker Carlson was thoroughly impressed on Wednesday night with how “good” Donald Trump is at ordering fast food, telling his viewers to “treat yourself” to footage of the ex-president deftly handling the cashier’s counter at a McDonald’s.

“Whatever you think of Donald Trump, when he’s unleashed in a crowd of people, he’s unbelievable,” Carlson fawned over the former president. “If you haven’t seen the tape of him ordering in McDonald’s in East Palestine, treat yourself.”

The primetime host added: “He wows everyone in the room. Again, you don’t have to love Trump to know he’s really good at this. And it’s real. He feels it. That’s why he’s so good at it.”

The Fox host pointed to Trump’s McDonald’s trip as further proof of the supposed popularity of the twice-impeached ex-president, claiming that this was just another reason why Trump finds himself under constant legal threat. “Partisan prosecutors at all levels—state and federal—are trying to prevent him from running for president again,” Carlson grumbled.

During his campaign-like trip this week to East Palestine, Ohio, Trump took a detour to his favorite burger joint and ordered a “nice array” of McDonald’s for residents of the town impacted by a catastrophic train derailment. “I know this menu better than you do. I probably know it better than anybody in here,” Trump quipped before placing his order.

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis was in New York City Monday to meet with members of law enforcement.

Governor DeSantis took part in a discussion on Staten Island about protecting law and order.

"Is this Florida North or is Florida Staten Island South?" DeSantis said receiving a warm welcome from a room of active and retired police officers and firefighters.

Dozens packed the catering hall Prive on Monday morning, lining up early to ensure a spot.

Top of mind for some there was crime, and they say they wanted to be there to hear what the Florida governor had to say about bringing down the crime rate.

NY public officials criticize DeSantis for voting against Hurricane Sandy relief

As Hurricane Ian pummeled Florida on Wednesday, several public officials from New York criticized Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis (R) for voting against federal aid for Hurricane Sandy when he was a congressman.

“Just a reminder to New York … Marco Rubio and Ron DeSantis (who was in Congress at the time) voted against aid for Hurricane Sandy,” Yuh-Line Niou, a member of the New York state assembly, said on Twitter. “But because we are New York, we care about everyone. Even when they don’t care about us.”

Newly elected to Congress in 2013, DeSantis voted against a federal relief package for New York and New Jersey in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Sandy hit the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic states in late 2012, killing more than 100 Americans.

Sen. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) also voted against the hurricane relief in 2013, as Tristan Snell, a former assistant attorney general for New York, noted.

Rick Scott Backtracks On ‘Rescue America’ Plan After Social Security, Medicare Criticism

Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) on Friday changed his proposal to “sunset” federal laws every five years after Democrats and Republicans repeatedly pointed out that it could jeopardize popular programs like Social Security and Medicare.
Scott’s “Rescue America” plan now says that all federal legislation would sunset every five years “with specific exceptions of Social Security, Medicare, national security, veterans benefits, and other essential services.” It previously included no such exceptions.

“The very idea the senator from Florida wants to put Social Security and Medicare on the chopping block every five years I find to be somewhat outrageous,” President Joe Biden said in Florida last week, continuing months of relentless criticism of Scott’s proposal.

Trump warns Scott on Social Security, Medicare: ‘THERE WILL BE NO CUTS’

Former President Trump warned Sen. Rick Scott (R-Fla.) on Wednesday to “fight for Social Security and Medicare” and panned the Club for Growth’s endorsement of the Florida senator’s reelection bid as “the kiss of death.”

Trump endorsed Scott’s challenge against Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) in November but lashed out against his ally after the Club for Growth, a powerful conservative advocacy group, endorsed Scott earlier this week and defended him from what it called McConnell’s “false” attacks.
