American Airlines Stewardess Accused of Discriminating over MAGA Hat

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) Heather Mullins, an independent journalist and Donald Trump supporter, accused an American Airlines stewardess of discriminating against her for wearing a “Make America Great Again” hat, according to the Daily Mail.

Mullins said the flight attendant skipped her drink order and responded unprofessionally when asked about it, passive-aggressively waiting to serve her after all of the other passengers on the plane.

“I’ve worn my MAGA hat every time I’ve flown for the last four years and got thousands of fist bumps,” she said in a post on X.

“NEVER got any hate. Well, there’s a first time for everything,” she continued. “I just had the flight attendant for @AmericanAir SKIP ME in first class when asking everyone if they wanted a drink!!”

Many of the other passengers rallied in her support, as did her social-media fans, who made the post viral, garnering more than 5 million views as of Tuesday morning.

Mullins recorded the employee’s badge number and even got contact info for people sitting around her for witness statements.

She attempted to file a complaint with American Airlines during her layover.

An employee directed her to a supervisor, the supervisor claimed it would be a lengthy wait for a customer service manager and then pushed her to fill out an online complaint form.

“It’s sad that just happened in America,” Mullins said in a follow-up post. “But so grateful for all the kind people around me saying how awful it was she did that to me. She’s an anomaly. Most people are not like that.”

After the attention that Mullins’s post received, however, American did respond to the complaint by opening up an investigation.

Mullins, who started her career reporting on libertarian candidate Gary Johnson’s presidential campaign in the 2016 election, also proposed that Trump launch his own airline, perhaps unaware that the former Manhattan real-estate mogul already attempted that particular business venture from 1989 to 1992.

“Trump should buy a fleet of planes and, wrap them all like this, and start his own commercial airline company,” she said. “I would honestly never fly another airline again. Would you fly on a Trump plane?”

Biden ‘Furious’ and ‘Distracted’ Over Hunter Conviction and Ashley Diary

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) President Joe Biden is reportedly “angry” and “distracted” amid the escalating legal woes of his embattled children often leaving him in tears and burdened with an “impenetrable sadness,” reported Axios on Monday. 

Last week, Hunter Biden was found guilty of lying about his drug abuse on a gun purchase form. This conviction, coupled with Ashley Biden’s ongoing legal issues, has cast doubt among several White House aides about whether he should have run for president in the first place. 

“It’s affected the president,” Axios reported, citing five people familiar with Joe Biden’s state of mind. “Aides know to tiptoe around him when there’s bad family news, and he’s often angry or distracted about the legal and political attacks on them.” 

Ashley Biden faced a federal criminal case involving two individuals convicted of stealing her personal diary, which reportedly contains references to her father’s “inappropriate” showers with her. 

White House aides suggest that Joe Biden’s decision to run for president against Donald Trump in 2020 may have exacerbated these legal challenges. 

The revelations come at a shaky moment for Joe Biden’s re-election bid, with polls indicating he could be on his way out as a one-term president.

As reported by Axis, “[Joe Biden’s] struggles — along with the still raw personal grief over his son Beau’s death in 2015 — can manifest with tears and an ‘impenetrable sadness,’2 as one person close to Biden called it.”  

The Biden family has previously struggled with drug abuse. Before Joe Biden took office in 2020, Hunter Biden struggled with addiction to crack cocaine and alcohol, prompting him to seek treatment in California after his father’s presidential announcement.

Ashley Biden, facing her own battles with addiction, underwent treatment at a Florida rehab center and reportedly experienced a relapse in early 2019. 

Hallie Biden, the widow of Joe Biden’s late son Beau Biden, also struggled with addiction, including a period of dependency on crack cocaine during her relationship with Hunter Biden. 

“I didn’t want the family to go through it. I was worried the family couldn’t go through it. I worried about Hunter. The grandkids. And Joe,” Valerie Biden Owens, Joe Biden’s sister, wrote in her book, Growing Up Biden. 

Biden Blocks Bipartisan Push for Family Foreign Income Disclosure

Biden Blocks Bipartisan Push for Family Foreign Income Disclosure

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) The White House has secretly worked to block bipartisan legislation requiring President Joe Biden and his successors to disclose the foreign income of their family members. 

The proposed bill would mandate that presidents and vice presidents disclose any foreign income and other payments received by themselves and their relatives, according to The Hill. 

If passed, the bill would also require federal executives to share their tax returns and disclose potential conflicts of interest.

Leading the legislative initiative were two lawmakers from opposite ends of the political spectrum: House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., and Rep. Katie Porter, D-Calif., a far-left Democrat. 

“I was excited to come to Washington to introduce my bill. And was proud that I had found three senior Democratic co-sponsors,” Porter told The Hill, “When I landed, I was disappointed to learn that those co-sponsors had decided not to support the bill and had had conversations with the White House.”

The three Democratic lawmakers who withdrew as co-sponsors were Reps. Ro Khanna, Calif.; Raja Krishnamoorthi, D-Ill.; and Kweisi Mfume, D-Md., according to lawmakers and sources who spoke to The Hill. 

“It’s too partisan a tool to cudgel the president as opposed to a serious effort of bipartisan ethics reform,” claimed Khanna when asked why he abandoned the bill. 

“I don’t think it was bipartisan enough, but I made the decision independently. No one called me,” he claimed, ignoring Porter’s support of the bill.

Similarly, Mfume said that he “didn’t get the real sense there was going to be enough bipartisan support on the bill,” as reported by The Hill. “I wanted to see a larger bipartisan effort. I was under the belief that there would be, and when there wasn’t, I just said, ‘Let me step off.’”

Schumer Ridiculed for Staged Father’s Day Pic Feat. Cold Grill, Man Boobs

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., spent his Father’s Day Sunday like many fathers around the country, grilling with his family.

But unlike those other fathers, Schumer appears to have no clue how to grill a burger, Twitchy reported.

The Democrats’ head honcho in the Senate posted—and then soon deleted—a photo of himself flipping raw burgers on the grill, one of which he had added cheese to despite its being completely uncooked.

Notwithstanding Schumer’s attempts to erase his online footprint, the image was captured and reposted to Twitter by many who mocked him for his pitiful attempt to appear to be one of the people.

Unfortunately, the miscalculation is likely instead to further fuel the longstanding rumors that Schumer is actually a lizard person.

The burgers were not going to be cooking anytime soon, as the knobs indicated that the propane was turn on only one burner—a surprise to some, considering Schumer’s reputation as a master gaslighter.

But if the photo were not painful enough, Schumer posted the following caption with it, recognizing his daughter and her lesbian partner, who hosted the Father’s Day photoshoot:

“Our family has lived in an apartment building for all our years, but my daughter and her wife just bought a house with a backyard and for the first time we’re having a barbecue with hot dogs and hamburgers on the grill!”

“Father’s Day Heaven!” he added.

He was duly mocked on Twitter for that as well, with one user suggesting that if she was straight, Schumer would not have to be grilling himself.

Last but not least, Schumer’s photo featured the senator in a T-shirt that was not flattering on his figure, to say the least.

One Twitter user called attention to Schumer’s burgeoning gynecomastia.

“Everyone is making fun of your fake grilling, but I’m more distracted by your man-boobs,” write Twitchy blogger Aaron Walker.

Police Depts. Bribe Kids w/ 7-Eleven Slurpees to Lower Juvenile Crime Rate

Police Depts. Bribe Kids w/ 7-Eleven Slurpees to Lower Juvenile Crime Rate

(Matthew Doarnberger, Headline USA) Police in Tacoma Park, Md., and  have partnered with 7-Eleven to issue coupons for free Slurpees to children who do the right thing, DC News Now reported.

According to the convenience store’s corporate site, it is one of about 1,300 law-enforcement agencies participating in the program, dubbed “Operation Chill.”

The objective to reduce the growing amount of juvenile crime by fostering better community relationships with police officers and at-risk youth.

“Operation Chill provides opportunities for officers to establish a positive connection with kids in their neighborhood,” said the website. “The reasons for being rewarded coupons are varied—wearing a helmet while riding a bike, picking up litter, helping a neighbor or holding the door open—but the result is the same for every child: A free Slurpee® drink and a smile for a good deed.”

First introduced in 1995, Operation Chill has issued an estimated 24 million coupons throughout its history.

Implementing this program for the summer months isn’t just about the appeal of a cool beverage on a hot day, but also combating the rise in crime that results from schools not being in session.

“This is a good program, especially during the summer months when crime tends to go up a little bit because schools are out,” said Takoma Park police Lt. Cynthia Williams.

According to the Montgomery County Police Department, between 2022 and 2023 the number of juvenile arrestees increased by 329%, the number of juvenile violent crime suspects went up 178% and the number of juvenile victims rose 216%.

Takoma Park Police Department Spokeswoman Catherine Plevy said that the rise in youth crime was due to its close proximity to other problematic places in the Washington, D.C., area.

“Though we do have some youth crime, it’s not our youth in Takoma Park,” she noted.

“They are coming from other jurisdictions—we border Montgomery County, and Prince George’s, and the District of Columbia,” she added. “So, since it’s so close you can literally come in and leave quickly.”

U.S. Gov. Passes Bill to Automatically Draft Young Men

U.S. Gov. Passes Bill to Automatically Draft Young Men

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) The U.S. House passed a measure on June 14, 2024, that would automatically register men aged 18 to 26 for selective service, also known as the draft.

According to Fox News, the measure was part of the annual National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA), which sets out the U.S. government’s military and national security priorities over the next fiscal year.

NDAA authorizes $895.2 billion in military spending this year, which is a $9 billion increase from fiscal 2024.

Even though it hasn’t been invoked in over 50 years, all male U.S. citizens are required to register for selective service when they turn 18. Those who fail to register are automatically classified as felons.

Additionally, every male, an American citizen or not, must register for selective service if he applies for an academic scholarship or a job since some employers require their potential employees to do so.

The amendment would cut down on bureaucratic red tape, help U.S. citizens avoid unnecessary legal issues and cut down on the taxpayer dollars prosecuting those cases, the supporters of the measure argued.

Rep. Chrissy Houlahan, D-Pa., led the amendment and passed it in the House Armed Services Committee’s version of the NDAA in May of this year. The NDAA advanced through the committee in an overwhelming 57 to 1 vote.

“By using available federal databases, the [Selective Service] agency will be able to register all of the individuals required and thus help ensure that any future military draft is fair and equitable,” Houlahan said.

She also justified the measure by saying it would save a lot of money.

“This will also allow us to rededicate resources towards reading readiness and towards mobilization… rather than towards education and advertising campaigns driven to register people.”

Additionally, the NDAA included the largest-ever military pay raise in history, with a 19.5% increase for junior enlisted troops and a 4.5% increase for others, funding for two new Virginia-class submarines and the establishment of a drone force within the U.S. Army, among other provisions.

Even though the NDAA passed the House in a 217 to 199 vote, the Senate may not be as enthusiastic.

Texas Democrat Arrested for Posting Fake Racist Messages about Himself

Texas Democrat Arrested for Posting Fake Racist Messages about Himself

(Headline USA) A former Biden appointee and current Democratic candidate in Texas was arrested last week for allegedly posting fake racist social media comments about himself.

Taral Patel was appointed by President Joe Biden to serve in the Office of White House Liaison, as well as on the White House Initiative on Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders. He is now running as the Democrat candidate for county commissioner in Fort Bend County Precinct 3.

Shortly after launching his campaign last year, Patel claimed that he and his family had been victims of a vicious, race-based smear campaign perpetrated by his Republican opponent, Andy Meyers, and Meyers’s supporters.

Patel alleged he had received dozens of racist messages, including ones in which he was called a “monkey” and “subhuman,” as well as others directly attacking his Hindu faith.

“These hateful images (a small sample attached here) are from a place of deep and misguided fear—incited by people like former President Donald Trump, and today’s extremist Republican party fear that immigrants are ‘taking their jobs’ and setting out to hurt our own communities,” Patel wrote at the time.

Meyers, the Republican running against him, denied the accusations and requested an investigation by the Fort Bend County district attorney’s office into Patel’s claims.

Investigators then subpoenaed Facebook and Google to obtain account information about the accounts allegedly posting hateful comments about Patel, only to discover that the accounts had been created by Patel and were linked to his address, phone number, bank card number, and more.

Texas law enforcement arrested Patel last week for online impersonation in the third degree, which is a felony, and for a misrepresentation of identity, which is a misdemeanor.

Fort Bend County GOP chair Bobby Eberle slammed Patel as another Jussie Smollett, the disgraced actor who was also charged for fabricating a racial hate crime against himself.

“Patel garnered widespread news coverage (like his former boss) for claiming that racist social media posts were made against him,” Eberle said in a statement. “Whether Republican or Democrat, such tactics should be unequivocally condemned by all who value integrity and accountability in politics.”

WH Refutes Authentic Biden Struggle Videos As ‘Manipulated’ (They Are Not)

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) The White House dismissed concerns sparked by several videos showing President Joe Biden either freezing or needing assistance while walking, labeling the clips as “manipulated.” 

On Monday, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre asserted that these viral videos are “cheap fakes.” They are not. 

“They are cheap fake videos,” she falsely claimed in response to a reporter’s question. “They are done in bad faith.” 

Jean-Pierre referenced a dubious Washington Post report that alleged: “Republicans used misleading videos to attack Biden in a 24-hour period.” 

She also claimed that the Washington Examiner criticized the New York Post for publishing stories on videos oddly depicting Biden. However, Headline USA could not verify the existence of such an Examiner article. 

Jean-Pierre’s remarks come as Biden has faced incidents where he stumbled, appeared unable to walk unaided and seemed confused about his direction. 

At 81, Biden is the oldest president in U.S. history, a concern for many voters as the 2024 presidential election approaches, according to several polls. 

At a Saturday fundraiser with former President Barack Obama, Biden appeared immobilized by the audience’s applause after an interview with comedian Jimmy Kimmel.

His unusual behavior ceased when Obama took his hands and guided him offstage. As they exited, Obama placed a reassuring hand on Biden’s shoulder. 

During a Thursday G7 Summit in southern Italy, Biden wandered away from a skydiving demonstration.  

A viral video showed him straying to observe technicians preparing a parachute. He returned to the main event only after Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni intervened, guiding him back for a photo-op. 

At a D-Day ceremony, another viral video caught Biden in an awkward moment.  

As he, First Lady Jill Biden, French President Emmanuel Macron and Brigitte Macron attempted to sit down, Biden appeared momentarily bent over, creating the impression he had an accident or that he couldn’t stand straight. 

Biden Launches $50M Anti-Trump Ad Blitz to Highlight Trump’s Conviction

Biden Launches $50M Anti-Trump Ad Blitz to Highlight Trump’s Conviction

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Joe Biden’s campaign launched a $50 million television ad blitz on June 17, 2024, to hit Donald Trump over his 34-count felony business fraud conviction, which many of Trump’s supporters describe as witchhunts.

The 81-year-old’s ad campaign was created to highlight Trump’s conviction by a Manhattan jury on May 30, 2024, attacking Trump by calling him “a convicted criminal who’s only out for himself,” the New York Post reported.

“In the courtroom, we see Donald Trump for who he is. Meanwhile, Joe Biden’s been working, lowering healthcare costs and making big corporations pay their fair share. This election is between a convicted criminal who’s only out for himself and a president who is fighting for your family,” the narrator says in the 30-second ad titled “Character Matters.”

In response, Trump campaign spokeswoman Karoline Leavitt accused the Biden administration of having “weaponized the justice system against President Trump,” which was the reason why Trump was criminally convicted.

She then said that the differences between Trump and Biden “will be very clear on the debate stage.”

Biden campaign spokesman Michael Taylor, however, said the opposite.

“It’s a stark contrast, and it’s one that matters deeply to the American people,” he said, referring to the candidates’ differences that the ad campaign is trying to highlight.

Aside from the fact that the conviction has a strong chance of being overturned, some people, especially Trump supporters, would find the ad and its purpose very ironic considering that the entire Biden family is completely corrupted, with Hunter, Biden’s son, being the most explicit example of the family.

Despite Biden’s attempts to portray Trump as a criminal, Trump just becomes more popular, only gaining more future voters and earning a lot of money selling his merch after being convicted.

“It sells. Elvis had one, Frank Sinatra had one — but we’ve eclipsed them,” Trump told influencer Logan Paul of the “NEVER SURRENDER!” T-shirt strategy during a meet-and-greet last week.

Jill Biden Still Trying to Defend Joe’s Age, Mental Acuity

(Headline USA) First Lady Jill Biden tried to defend her husband’s age and mental acuity last week, just hours before a motionless President Joe Biden had to be escorted off the stage at a Los Angeles fundraiser by former President Barack Obama.

Jill Biden was speaking at a campaign event in Wisconsin featuring mostly elderly voters, who were given “Biden Bingo” cards that included popular catch-phrases of the president’s, such as “Folks,” “union jobs” and “Amtrak train.”

“This nana is proud to stand here with all of you to get to work to re-elect Joe Biden and Kamala Harris,” Jill Biden said in front of a “Seniors for Biden–Harris” sign.

With youger voters flocking to former President Donald Trump, the Biden campaign has attempted to pivot to the other end of the demographic curve, pandering to voters ages 65 and up to offset the potential losses.

The first lady largely focused on Social Security and Medicare in her brief address, but also tried to downplay concerns about her husband’s fitness.

“Joe and the other guy are essentially the same age so let’s not be fooled,” she said. “Biden is a healthy, wise, 81-year-old ready to work every day to make our future better.”

That same day, Joe Biden suffered another embarrassing incident when he froze on stage at a celebrity-studded Hollywood fundraiser.

Video footage of the event showed the elderly Biden standing completely still while staring out at the crowd when Obama grabbed his arm and led him off stage.

A few days prior, Biden also bizarrely wandered off during a meeting with world leaders in Italy.

Biden campaign spokeswoman Adrienne Elrod later claimed the president was actually going to greet demonstrators who landed near the meeting via parachute.

But a diplomat who attended the G7 summit described Biden as “the worst he has ever been.” 

A European journalist who spoke with others in attendance at the G7 confirmed the sentiment: “My sources, diplomatic sources here, say it is the worst they’ve ever seen Joe Biden, and he’s in a bad way,” The Sun’s Harry Cole revealed.

“He’s losing focus in meetings. Sometimes he’s very sharp sometimes, he’s very much not,” Cole continued. “So some worrying developments there. Last night there was an awkward moment with President Biden where he was looking very doddery.”
