Republican candidate for <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/arizona" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Arizona</a> governor <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/kari-lake" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Kari Lake</a> joked that she’s not “suicidal” after becoming a target of <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/topic/hillary-clinton" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Hillary Clinton</a>’s ire in recent days.
“But I was a little concerned today — I’m going to be honest — when I saw Hillary Clinton badmouthing me. And she looked angry and actually scared. Completely unrelated, I want you to know, just in case you’re wondering, I’m in perfect health, the breaks on my car are in good shape, and I’m not suicidal,” Lake said during an appearance on Fox News Thursday. “And we’re going to win this thing.”

Clinton, a former secretary of state for the Obama administration, criticized Lake earlier in the week over comments the Arizona gubernatorial candidate made about an illegal immigrant’s attack on House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband.
At a Monday campaign event, Lake <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/11/01/paul-pelosi-attack-youngkin-lake/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a>, “Nancy Pelosi, well, she’s got protection when she’s in D.C. — apparently her house doesn’t have a lot of protection.”
Clinton took issue with Lake’s comments on Thursday while she was in New York campaigning for Governor Kathy Hochul. Hochul is in a tight race against Republican Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY). Hochul arose to the governorship after former Governor Andrew Cuomo stepped down.
“An intruder hits an 82-year-old man in the head with a hammer, who happens to be married to the speaker of the House, and the Republicans joke about it. The woman running for governor in Arizona jokes about it,” Clinton <a href="https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2022/11/03/hillary-clinton-returns-trail-struggling-hochul-slams-gop/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">said</a> at a campaign event. “Now why would any sensible person want to give power to somebody who thinks it’s funny that a person gets assaulted in his own home? So you know, they don’t care about keeping you safe. They want to keep you scared, so that you can’t think straight.”
Vice President Kamala Harris also campaigned for Hochul alongside Clinton, suggesting that Democrats feel pressured to defend the deep blue state.

Kari Lake After Hillary Clinton ‘Badmouthing’: ‘I Want You To Know … I’m Not Suicidal’

President Donald Trump has promised an elaborate Independence Day signing ceremony for the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” recently approved by Congress.
The president teased plans for the ceremony while speaking to reporters on Thursday. Trump said that the ceremony would feature a number of United States military warplanes, including the B-2, F-22, and F-35.
Trump said the ceremony would start around 5 p.m. ET, and he would be joined by House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD), and most Republicans in Congress.
“At about 5:00 o’clock, we&#8217;re going to have B-2s and F-22s and F-35s flying right over the White House,” Trump said. “It’s going to be a great day, so we&#8217;ll be signing with those beautiful planes flying right over our heads.”

The House gave final approval on Thursday to send the “Big, Beautiful Bill” to Trump’s desk in time for his July 4 deadline. Johnson and Trump whipped votes and met with holdouts in the hours leading up to the vote, securing a 218-214 majority to pass the legislation on Thursday afternoon.
&#8220;I think when you go over the bill, it was very easy to get them to a ‘Yes,’” Trump told reporters on Thursday after the bill’s passage. “You know, we went over that bill point after point: biggest tax cut in history, great for security, great on the southern border, immigration is covered – we covered just about everything. Again, it&#8217;s the biggest bill ever signed of its kind.”

Johnson <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/big-beautiful-and-on-the-way-to-trumps-desk-congress-passes-historic-spending-bill">secured</a> the votes to pass the massive package at around 3:30 a.m. Thursday morning. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) then held the House floor for over eight hours, speaking to delay the bill’s passage, but ultimately powerless to stop it.
“With one big, beautiful bill, we are going to make this country stronger, safer, and more prosperous than ever before. And every American is going to benefit from this,” Johnson said just before the vote. “Today we are laying a key cornerstone of America’s new Golden Age.”
The bill’s passage is just the latest landmark victory for the president that has seen a <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-mentum-from-iran-to-big-beautiful-bill-prez-scores-landmark-victories-in-past-two-weeks?author=Tim+Pearce&amp;category=News&amp;elementPosition=0&amp;row=0&amp;rowType=Vertical+List&amp;title=TRUMP-MENTUM%3A+From+Iran+To+Big%2C+Beautiful+Bill%2C+Prez+Scores+Landmark+Victories+In+Past+Two+Weeks">cascade</a> of wins in recent weeks.

‘B-2s And F-22s And F-35s’: Trump Teases Jet-Packed Signing Ceremony For Big, Beautiful Bill

President Donald Trump has scored some of the biggest wins of his administration in the past two weeks to be capped with what may be his signature legislative win of his second term.
Congress passed the “One Big, Beautiful Bill” on Thursday, sending the legislation to Trump’s desk in time for the July 4 deadline that the president had set. House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) called the bill a “key cornerstone of America’s new golden age” after he and Trump worked late into the night whipping votes to get the package through the House on Thursday afternoon.
The legislation makes permanent Trump’s 2017 tax cuts, as well as eliminating some taxes on tips and Social Security. It also includes a $150 billion boost to border security and deportation measures, and another $150 billion toward new defense spending. The bill encourages a boom in fossil fuel energy production while cutting tax credits for green energy and electric vehicles. The bill tightens rules and implements work requirements to receive Medicaid.
“President Trump is racking up win after win – making this the best two weeks for everyday Americans in decades. On the world stage and on the home front, President Trump has delivered on his promises like no other President before. It’s clear that President Trump was right about everything, Americans still aren’t tired of winning, and our country has never been HOTTER!” White House spokeswoman Taylor Rogers told The Daily Wire in a statement.
Other wins for the president from the past two weeks include:
<ul>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">The June jobs report <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-effect-u-s-adds-147k-jobs-beating-projections-for-fourth-straight-month">released</a> on Thursday showed the United States added 147,000 jobs last month, outpacing expectations and showing positive job growth in the country for four months straight. The U.S. economy has added nearly 700,000 jobs since January.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Border encounters in the month of June again <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/border-patrol-saw-fewer-migrant-encounters-last-month-than-one-single-day-under-biden-homan-says">plunged</a> to the lowest level in decades, surpassing a previous decades-long low set in March. Federal authorities tallied just 6,070 encounters with illegal aliens at the Southern Border last month, and stopped all from entering the United States.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">The Supreme Court last week <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/supreme-court-sides-with-trump-limits-nationwide-injunctions-in-birthright-citizenship-fight">delivered</a> a major win to the Trump administration, restricting the ability of district court judges to issue nationwide injunctions that have thwarted policies from the White House. Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote for the 6-3 majority that “federal courts do not exercise general oversight of the Executive Branch; they resolve cases and controversies consistent with the authority Congress has given them.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-announces-major-trade-deal-with-vietnam-days-before-tariff-increases">announced</a> a trade deal with Vietnam on Wednesday just days before the president’s 90-day pause on Liberation Day tariffs expires. According to Trump, American producers will have duty-free access to Vietnam’s market while Vietnamese goods will have a 20% tariff to enter the United States. “Transshipped” goods sent to the United States via Vietnam from other countries will be tariffed at 40%.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">The S&amp;P 500 and NASDAQ both <a href="https://www.reuters.com/sustainability/sustainable-finance-reporting/us-stock-futures-steady-investors-await-payrolls-data-2025-07-03/">closed</a> at record highs on Thursday.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Gas prices hit the lowest level in four years heading into the Independence Day holiday weekend. The national average for a gallon of gas stood at $3.16 on Thursday, a $0.35 drop from a year ago, according to data from <a href="https://gasprices.aaa.com/">AAA</a>.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Last week, NATO countries <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-triumphs-nato-bows-to-u-s-pressure-with-5-defense-pledge">agreed</a> to raise defense spending to 5% of GDP at Trump’s urging, with the lone exception of Spain.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">United States bombers and submarines delivered strikes against three nuclear sites in Iran in a June 21 surprise attack dubbed “Operation Midnight Hammer.” The Pentagon has said the strikes “obliterated” nuclear facilities at Fordo, Natanz, and Isfahan and <a href="https://www.militarytimes.com/news/your-military/2025/07/03/us-strikes-set-back-irans-nuclear-program-up-to-2-years-dod-says/">set</a> Iran’s nuclear program back at least one to two years.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Following the attack on Iran’s nuclear facilities, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/jd-vance-end-of-israel-iran-war-an-important-reset-moment-for-middle-east">brokered</a> and held together a ceasefire between Israel and Iran.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Last week, Trump <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-brokers-peace-agreement-between-rwanda-and-congo-at-white-house">hosted</a> leaders of Rwanda and the Democratic Republic of Congo at the White House to broker a peace agreement and end a 30-year conflict between the two countries.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Pakistan <a href="https://x.com/FoxNews/status/1936235634286268493">nominated</a> President Trump for the Nobel Peace Prize on June 20 “in recognition of his decisive diplomatic intervention and pivotal leadership during the recent India-Pakistan crisis.”</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Trump <a href="https://www.cnbc.com/2025/06/26/trump-golden-share-us-steel-nippon-merger.html">secured</a> a “golden share” of U.S. Steel last week as part of an $14 billion deal for Japan’s Nippon Steel to acquire the U.S. steel manufacturer. The “golden share,” made official in an amended corporate charter filed with the United States last week, grants Trump and future presidents broad veto power over key decisions made regarding U.S. Steel, including changes to the company name or selling production locations in the next decade.</li>
<li style="font-weight: 400;">Under pressure from the White House, the University of Pennsylvania has <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/upenn-agrees-to-strip-medals-from-lia-thomas-as-part-of-sweeping-white-house-deal">agreed</a> to bar males from competing in female sports or using female “intimate facilities.” The school will also adopt “biology-based definitions” for “male” and “female” that comply with the president’s executive orders. The university will also strip trans-identifying male swimmer Lia Thomas of the titles he won on the women’s team while returning “misappropriated” awards to female athletes.</li>

TRUMP-MENTUM: From Iran To Big, Beautiful Bill, Prez Scores Landmark Victories In Past Two Weeks

President Joe Biden complained Wednesday that what he was able to accomplish during his time in the White House is “changing so rapidly” under President Donald Trump.
Biden delivered the keynote speech in front of a conference of human resources professionals put on by the Society for Human Resource Management in San Diego. The former president’s roughly hour-long address was his lengthiest public remarks since he announced his cancer diagnosis in May.
“Many of the things I worked so damn hard, that I thought I changed in the country, are changing so rapidly,” he said, according to <a href="https://www.wsj.com/politics/policy/biden-in-rare-remarks-since-presidency-warns-his-accomplishments-are-coming-undone-18c58c50">The Wall Street Journal</a>.
Biden also said he has been advising European leaders on how to handle Trump. The 82-year-old ex-president said that European officials have called him and asked him to get involved in politics again. Biden said he is not involved, but is still talking to and advising U.S. and European lawmakers.
“We strengthened NATO in a significant way,” Biden told the conference, adding that now “I’m getting calls — I’m not going to go into it, I can’t — from a number of European leaders asking me to get engaged.”
“I’m not, but I’m giving advice,&#8221; Biden said.
The White House pushed back on Biden’s claims. White House spokeswoman Anna Kelly said that Biden’s leadership left “America weaker than ever before,” according to <a href="https://www.thedailybeast.com/joe-biden-says-world-leaders-are-asking-him-for-advice-in-new-trump-era/">The Daily Beast</a>.
<a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent" aria-describedby="sk-tooltip-2388">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a>
“Absolutely no one is calling Joe Biden for advice because his disastrous foreign policy left America weaker than ever before. Thanks to President Trump, NATO allies have made a historic 5% defense spending pledge, Iran’s nuclear capabilities are obliterated, and our country’s standing on the world stage is restored,” Kelly said.
Last month, Trump scored a diplomatic win with NATO countries, convincing all but Spain to increase defense spending to 5% of each country’s relative GDP. The 5% target <a href="https://www.nato.int/cps/en/natohq/topics_49198.htm">includes</a> 3.5% dedicated to core defense requirements and at least 1.5% on security and defense-related “critical infrastructure,” including strengthening each country’s “defense industrial base.”
“There is absolute conviction with my colleagues at the table that, given this threat from the Russians, given the international security situation, there is no alternative,” NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/trump-triumphs-nato-bows-to-u-s-pressure-with-5-defense-pledge">said</a> of the increase.

Joe Biden Says His Accomplishments Are Disappearing ‘So Rapidly’ Under Trump

Eric Tarpinian-Jachym, an intern for GOP Rep. Ron Estes of Kansas, was shot and killed in Northwest Washington, D.C., on Monday night.
Estes and the D.C. Metropolitan Police confirmed the 21-year-old Tarpinian-Jachym’s death in separate statements.
“I will remember his kind heart and how he always greeted anyone who entered our office with a cheerful smile,” said Estes. “We are grateful to Eric for his service to Kansas’ 4th District and the country. Please join Susan and me in praying for his family and respecting their privacy during this heartbreaking time.”
Tarpinian-Jachym of Granby, Massachusetts, was a rising senior at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. He was majoring in finance with a minor in political science, according to Estes’ office.
On Monday night around 10:30 p.m., officers responded to a report of gunshots in the 1200 block of 7th Street, Northwest. Officers found Tarpinian-Jachym unconscious with gunshot wounds. Officers also found “an adult female and a 16-year-old male.” Both were conscious and had gunshot wounds, as well, <a href="https://mpdc.dc.gov/release/mpd-provides-update-7th-street-homicide">according to</a> police.
All three victims were taken to area hospitals where Tarpinian-Jachym eventually died.
“The preliminary investigation indicates that multiple suspects exited a vehicle at the intersection of 7th and M Street, Northwest and began firing at a group. The suspect vehicle has been recovered. Detectives believe the decedent was not the intended target of the shooting,” D.C. Metropolitan Police said.
The nation’s capital has ranked as one of the most dangerous cities in recent years. A crime spike that had progressed for years <a href="https://www.heritage.org/crime-and-justice/commentary/why-dc-remains-one-the-nations-most-dangerous-cities">spiked</a> in 2023 at 40.9 homicides per 100,000 residents, making Washington the fourth most dangerous city in the United States behind New Orleans, St. Louis, and Detroit, respectively.
A report from Republicans on the House Budget Committee <a href="https://budget.house.gov/press-release/the-nations-capital-is-suffering-the-worst-crime-wave-in-21st-century">said</a> the crime wave was the worst the city had faced in over two decades, tallying in 2023 “over 270 murders, 950 carjackings, and 106 children shot — reminiscent of the 1990s crack epidemic.”
Victims of the crime wave included some of the nation’s most powerful people. Democratic Rep. Henry Cuellar of Texas was <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/democrat-congressman-carjacked-at-gunpoint-in-washington-d-c">carjacked</a> at gunpoint in October 2023. Former Trump official Mike Gill was shot and <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/former-trump-official-mike-gill-shot-during-d-c-carjacking-dies-from-injuries">killed</a> several months later in February 2024.
In 2024, Washington’s homicide rate dropped to 27.3, which D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser touted as a result her administration’s focus on crime. The city’s rank as the fourth most dangerous city in the United States remained unchanged, however.

‘Heartbreaking’: 21-Year-Old Congressional Intern Fatally Shot In DC

A federal judge in Washington on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump’s proclamation freezing most asylum claims at the southern border.
Federal District Court for the District of Columbia Judge Randolph Moss wrote in a 128-page <a href="https://storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.uscourts.dcd.277039/gov.uscourts.dcd.277039.71.0.pdf">opinion</a> that the president lacked authority under immigration law and the U.S. Constitution to issue the proclamation. The judge, an Obama appointee, stayed his ruling for 14 days to give the Trump administration a chance to appeal.
“The Court recognizes that the Executive Branch faces enormous challenges in preventing and deterring unlawful entry into the United States and in adjudicating the overwhelming backlog of asylum claims of those who have entered the country,” wrote Moss. “But the [Immigration and Nationality Act], by its terms, provides the sole and exclusive means for removing people already present in the country.”
“Nor can Article II’s Vesting Clause or Article IV’s Invasion Clause be read to grant the President or his delegees authority to adopt an alternative immigration system, which supplants the statutes that Congress has enacted and the regulations that the responsible agencies have promulgated,” the judge continued.
The ruling could knock down a key piece of Trump’s border policy just at the White House is celebrating a massive drop in immigration since Trump took office.
<a class="c-link" href="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer" data-stringify-link="https://get.dailywire.com/freedom/?utm_medium=website&amp;utm_source=editorial&amp;utm_campaign=freedom&amp;utm_content=freedomeditorial" data-sk="tooltip_parent">JULY 4 SALE: Get Six Months Of DW+ Free</a>
In his ruling, Moss granted class-action status to the lawsuit and said it would apply to “all individuals who are or will be subject to the Proclamation and/or its implementation and who are now or will be present in the United States.”
White House deputy chief of staff Stephen Miller slammed and ridiculed the ruling, taking special issue with the scope of its effect.
“To try to circumvent the Supreme Court ruling on nationwide injunctions a marxist judge has declared that all potential FUTURE illegal aliens on foreign soil (eg a large portion of planet earth) are part of a protected global ‘class’ entitled to admission into the United States,” Miller <a href="https://x.com/StephenM/status/1940483307407540379">posted</a> on X.
“The West will not survive if our sovereignty is not restored,” he <a href="https://x.com/stephenm/status/1940487259553493113">added</a>, likely referring to judicial overreach that has stymied the president’s agenda through broad injunctions delivered by lower court judges.
Last week, the Supreme Court <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/supreme-court-sides-with-trump-limits-nationwide-injunctions-in-birthright-citizenship-fight">delivered</a> an opinion curbing district court judges’ authority to issue nationwide injunctions on presidential orders.
“[F]ederal courts do not exercise general oversight of the Executive Branch; they resolve cases and controversies consistent with the authority Congress has given them,” Justice Amy Coney Barrett wrote in the court’s opinion.
“When a court concludes that the Executive Branch has acted unlawfully, the answer is not for the court to exceed its power, too,” she said.
Trump issued a <a href="https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/guaranteeing-the-states-protection-against-invasion/">proclamation</a> on his first day in office restricting asylum claims at the southern border, calling the flood of illegal immigration that swamped the United States&#8217; southern border an &#8220;invasion&#8221; and arguing that the mass of unchecked people represented a significant &#8220;public-health concern.&#8221;

District Judge Takes Aim At Key Pillar Of Trump’s Border Policy With Another Sweeping Ruling

A judge denied Sean “Diddy” Combs’ request to be let out of jail on bail Wednesday as the disgraced rapper awaits his sentencing.
Judge Arun Subramanian ruled against Combs’ request for a $1 million bail. Subramanian quoted Combs’ legal defense and spoke about the rapper’s past violence against his girlfriends when delivering his ruling.
“At trial, the defense conceded defendant’s violence in personal relationships saying ‘it happened’ in relation to Cassie Venture and Jane,” Subramanian said, according to <a href="https://www.cnn.com/entertainment/live-news/sean-diddy-combs-trial-07-02-25#cmcmgj2dn000t3b6mzhehagb4">CNN</a>. Prosecutors had argued that the rapper was a flight risk.
The judge also noted violence that took place after Combs’ homes were searched, saying of the episodes, “this highlights a disregard for the rule of law and a propensity of violence.”
Combs has been in jail since he was arrested in September.
Subramanian has <a href="https://www.cnn.com/entertainment/live-news/sean-diddy-combs-trial-07-02-25#cmcmgq1s400103b6mvx7yo2hu">floated</a> an October 3 date for Combs’ sentencing hearing. Defense attorney Marc Agnifilo asked for the hearing date to be moved up as much as possible, suggesting that, if the judge agreed, the defense would waive a pre-sentencing investigation to secure an earlier date.
A Manhattan jury <a href="https://www.dailywire.com/news/sean-diddy-combs-found-guilty-on-2-counts-acquitted-of-most-serious-charges">found</a> Combs guilty on two counts of transportation to engage in prostitution on Wednesday. Each count carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. Both counts related to incidents with ex-girlfriends of the rapper.
The jury acquitted Combs of the more serious charges of racketeering conspiracy and sex trafficking.
After the verdict was delivered, Combs <a href="https://apnews.com/live/sean-diddy-combs-trial-verdict-updates">appeared</a> to celebrate the jury’s decision that acquitted him on the most serious charges. He raised his hands in a prayer motion and then hugged one of his defense attorneys, Teny Geragos.
The verdict concluded a weeks-long trial in which prosecutors accused the 55-year-old rapper of coercing girlfriends to take part in drug-fueled “freak-off” parties that included rampant sexual exploitation of the women.
Combs’ defense did not deny many of the sordid details, but asserted that the activities at the parties and elsewhere were consensual.
