Weekly Update - 10.13.24

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Before recounting this week's political events, I want to extend my prayers and best wishes to the people of Florida, North Carolina, Tennessee, South Carolina, and Virginia. Hurricanes Helene and Milton left a path of destruction, causing hundreds of fatalities and billions in property loss. The images and stories of the suffering and loss caused by these storms have been heartbreaking. Thankfully, states led by strong Republican governors are doing their jobs in leading clean-up and rescue efforts after these horrific stormsUnfortunately, North Carolinians are suffering from a ton of damage and an uncoordinated response from the federal and state governments. FEMA has done a terrible job responding to the storms, and that blame lies with Biden and Harris. FEMA has only distributed 1% of the over $20 billion Congress provided just weeks ago for disaster relief. Biden and Harris should do their job and urgently get the resources out to people and support teams in need rather than complaining about the fact they are being criticized and questioned for their inaction. Rather than complain, Harris should start doing her job and stop blaming others for her failures… as if “Day One” will be any different. With Kamala, it's always talk, constantly delayed, eventually weak action. By the way, we don’t hear Governor DeSantis complaining about criticism because the people affected are seeing a strong response and progress in Florida. Governor DeSantis is about action, not talk...the opposite of Harris, Biden, and all of the big-government, slow-moving do-nothings in our federal government under this administration. Unfortunately, the mainstream media continues to carry Biden-Harris' polluted water. This leads us to what this election is really about: STRENGTH vs. WEAKNESS. While President Donald J. Trump is promoting an America First policy agenda, Kamala Harris’ America Last policy is in full swing. Billions are being sent overseas, including $157 million pledged to the terror group Hezbollah, even as they attack our ally Israel and Americans. Yet the Biden-Harris admin only offers $750 to the families who lost everything… their homes, properties, possessions, and, in many cases, their loved ones. Kamala is so out of touch and dangerously liberal. America cannot have a President who puts America Last in their heart, head, speech, and actions — as Kamala so often does.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Last night, I returned to the Butler County Fairgrounds to welcome President Donald J. Trump back to Pennsylvania and the site of the assassination attempt on July 13. This was a solemn event as we honor a great American, Corey Comperatore, who lost his life at that July rally. President Trump greeted the Comperatore family at the airport.

At the same time, this rally was exciting because it paid tribute to President Trump's survival of that heinous attack. The 50,000+ crowd was energized and so proud to be in attendance and to stand with our next President. I joined Fox News before the event to discuss this event and the importance of winning Pennsylvania. Click here or below to watch.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Yesterday, I attended and spoke at a rally with our next Vice President, Senator J.D. Vance, in Newtown, Bucks County. Jim Worthington’s Newtown Athletic Club was full, and thousands of people came to see and hear from our winning team! Click here or below to watch a clip of my remarks.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Like you, I am deeply concerned about the safety of President Donald J. Trump in the wake of repeated attempts made on his life. Last weekend, a man attempted to assassinate President Trump in Florida. Thankfully, the Secret Service was able to thwart his plans before the shooter could carry out his deadly attack. However, it remains troubling that more resources are not dedicated to protecting President Trump. The level of protection must be based on the threat level to the official or candidate being targeted, regardless of whether they’re a current office holder, especially a former president. To ensure the safety and security of President Trump and to preserve our democratic process, the Secret Service must provide him with the same protective detail as the sitting president. Since the assassination attempt in Butler, House Republicans have pressed the FBI and Homeland Security, demanding increased security measures for President Trump. The rally's failures—from lack of resources to poor communication and planning—left him extremely vulnerable. Meanwhile, Biden, Harris, and Mayorkas have been all talk, no action. Even in high-risk situations, little has been done to improve President Trump’s safety. This is not just about President Trump—it’s about the integrity of our democracy and electoral process. The local sheriff and Secret Service admitted they lacked resources in Palm Beach, citing his status as a “former president.” Protection isn’t about titles; it’s about ensuring safety. Had the Secret Service, Biden administration, and Homeland Security acted swiftly and transparently, it would have served as a strong deterrent against would-be attackers. Instead, their silence puts more than just one man at risk—jeopardizing our constitutional republic. I joined “Mornings with Maria” on Fox Business to discuss further.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. The presidential debate, hosted by ABC News on Tuesday, was a clear example of media bias. The two ABC moderators, who were deeply biased in favor of Kamala Harris, engaged in a debate with President Donald J. Trump. Despite President Trump's resilience in the face of this biased onslaught, Harris was given a free pass, as Harris has had throughout the race by the mainstream media. This was evident in the fact that Harris was not held accountable for her blatant lies, flip-flopping,  and lack of coherent or consistent policy positions. Harris deflected questions about the economy and rising inflation. The truth is that the Harris-Biden administration is directly responsible for skyrocketing inflation, driven by reckless spending, an attack on American energy, and policies that pushed interest rates higher. Kamala Harris’s so-called "economic plan" is nothing more than a scheme to expand government control, enforce damaging price regulations, and distract from their failures by pointing fingers at gas stations and grocery stores. I joined "The Evening Edit" on Fox Business to discuss our nation's struggling economy under Harris and Biden. Click here or below to watch.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. What a great week in our campaign to deliver Pennsylvania’s critically important 19 electoral votes to President Donald J. Trump. On Wednesday, Fox News and Sean Hannity hosted a town hall at the Farm Show Arena in Harrisburg. This was meant to be the first debate, but Kamala Harris didn’t show. President Trump did a fantastic job. Click here or below to watch the town hall. I spoke to Fox 43 News before the event. Click here or below to watch my interview.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. Happy Labor Day! I hope you have a great weekend celebrating with family, friends, and loved ones. As we take a moment to celebrate hardworking Americans, I am reminded of a quote from our great President Ronald Reagan, “I would match the American worker against any in the world.” Pennsylvania is home to some of the hardest workers in the world. We have been blessed with grit, discipline, and determination to get a job done. Throughout history, the nation has called upon Pennsylvania workers to produce energy, forge steel, and build our nation. This Labor Day, we celebrate all those who lace up their boots, pick up their lunch pail, and work to improve our communities.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. This week, major news broke as third-party candidate Robert F. Kennedy (RFK) bowed out of the race and endorsed President Donald J. Trump. The reality is that the Democrat Party has gone so far in its embrace of the left-wing agenda that a member of the Kennedy family isn’t welcome. The Democrat Party has done everything possible to keep RFK out of the race. The Dem establishment kept him out of the primary against Biden and forced him to run as an independent. They worked overtime to keep his name off the ballot in many states. They have worked to block him from the debate stage and have silenced him using their partners in the mainstream media and big corporate social media. Then they pulled a coup, removing the sitting Democrat nominee, Joe Biden, from the ballot and replacing him with Kamala Harris, without Americans casting a single vote. While RFK and Trump have differing views on some issues, they are both patriots who care deeply about the future of our nation.

Good evening, and welcome to our Weekend Update. President Donald J. Trump was in Pennsylvania yesterday. I was honored to welcome him back to Wilkes Barre. Before the president, I addressed the massive audience of northeastern Pennsylvanians and stressed the urgency of the vote in Pennsylvania. Whoever wins the Keystone State wins the White House. We must ensure that we are TOO BIG TO RIG and Swamp the Vote for Donald J. Trump. Click here or below to watch my remarks. President Trump delivered a powerful speech. He laid out the key differences between him and Kamala Harris. The America First agenda means a thriving economy, no inflation, a secure border, safe streets, a robust domestic energy program, and peace through strength foreign policy. Harris has fully embraced the failed policy agenda of communist nations. This is a relatively easy decision. If we want to Make Our Country Great Again, we must re-elect President Donald J. Trump.

Good afternoon, and welcome to our Weekend Update. On Tuesday, I joined our next Vice President, JD Vance, in Philadelphia for a rally supporting the Trump-Vance Campaign. Donald Trump and JD Vance are business-minded, commonsense, problem-solving conservatives. There was a great crowd, and I enjoyed seeing so many Pennsylvania patriots ready to vote for the Trump-Vance ticket. We are building a winning coalition, and I think we will surprise many people in November with the significant gains we have made in traditionally Democratic voting blocs... And unlike Kamala Harris, Senator Vance took questions from the press and answered them directly and with energy.
