Trump’s campaign announced on X that independent politician Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democrat who previously served as a U.S. Representative for Hawaii’s 2nd congressional district from 2013 to 2021, has switched parties to join the GOP.

During their 90-minute address in Omaha, Gabbard and Robert F. Kennedy Jr. criticized the Biden-Harris administration, emphasized specific information concerning disaster relief funds, and discussed all the advantages and benefits of another Trump presidency.

The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s response to the hurricane clearly “failed,” Gabbard asserted on stage.

Kennedy told Fox News‘ ‘Gutfeld!’ host Greg Gutfeld that Democrats are “much more intolerant” than Republicans and that the party is now associated with Wall Street and the Military Industrial Complex, unlike the old Democrat party of the past.

Meanwhile, Gabbard has also expressed similar sentiments regarding the Democrat party as well.

“I can no longer remain in today’s Democratic Party that is now under the complete control of an elitist cabal of warmongers driven by cowardly wokeness, who divide us by racializing every issue & stoke anti-white racism, actively work to undermine our God-given freedoms, are hostile to people of faith & spirituality, demonize the police & protect criminals at the expense of law-abiding Americans, believe in open borders, weaponize the national security state to go after political opponents, and above all, dragging us ever closer to nuclear war,” Gabbard stated.

The United States Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) issued a food safety alert after one person died and 49 others fell ill from E. coli, and officials believe the outbreak is linked to McDonald’s Quarter Pounder burgers.

At least 49 people have reported being sick across 10 different states, including one death from the outbreak. 

The CDC announced that 10 people have been hospitalized, including a child who now has hemolytic uremic syndrome, a serious complication that can develop from an E. coli infection.

Most illnesses related to the outbreak have been reported in Colorado residents.

According to the agency, the investigation is “fast-moving” in its efforts, and certain information reviewed by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has indicated that “slivered onions are a likely source of contamination.”

While the investigation is ongoing, McDonald’s has discontinued the use of onions and quarter-pound beef patties in several states from locations in Colorado, Kansas, Utah, Wyoming, portions of Idaho, Iowa, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, Nevada, New Mexico, and Oklahoma.

However, the CDC also noted that the outbreak may have gone beyond those states.

The CDC also stated that those specific beef patties are only used for Quarter Pounders, and slivered onions are primarily used for Quarter Pounders, rather than other items.

According to McDonald’s statement, the initial investigation findings linked the onions to “a single supplier that serves three distribution centers.”

“We are working in close partnership with our suppliers to replenish supply for the Quarter Pounder in the coming weeks (timing will vary by local market),” it said. “In the meantime, all other menu items, including other beef products (including the Cheeseburger, Hamburger, Big Mac, McDouble and the Double Cheeseburger) are unaffected and available.”

People with E. coli infections may experience severe stomach cramps, diarrhea, fever, and vomiting. Symptoms of infection typically appear three to four days after swallowing the bacteria. Although most people who become ill recover without treatment within a week, some may develop serious kidney problems and require hospitalization.

Anyone who becomes ill after eating a McDonald’s Quarter Pounder should seek medical attention immediately and call their doctor, according to the CDC.

Warning Americans About the Dangers of Communism and Kamala’s Danger to America, with Xi Van Fleet

Megyn Kelly is joined by Xi Van Fleet, author of "Mao's America," to discuss her experience growing up in Communist China during the Cultural Revolution, how her experience there parallels Kamala's rhetoric now, the dangers that Americans need to know about, and more.

How Kamala's Policies and Rhetoric Based on Division Have Roots in Communism, with Xi Van Fleet

Megyn Kelly is joined by Xi Van Fleet, author of "Mao's America," to discuss the similarities she has noticed between Mao and Kamala's messaging, the focus on division among the left today, and more.

THESE Harris & Walz picks reveal how global elites are LYING to you

If you want to know who Kamala Harris and Tim Walz really are, look at who they’ve picked to work in their campaigns and administrations. Glenn and Stu review Team Harris-Walz’ pick for Climate Engagement Director, Camila Thorndike, who has called oil and gas WORKERS dangerous to the environment. So why did she join the Harris campaign, which is now saying it WON’T ban fracking? If that wasn’t disturbing enough, Glenn and Stu introduce you to a man who’s helping shape Minnesota’s schools under Tim Walz. The propaganda machine insists that Critical Race Theory is harmless and barely used in our schools. But you have to hear what this appointee said about “deconstructing” the U.S. for yourselves. When the government lies to you: Glenn brings on Justin Haskins, the co-author of his new book, "Propaganda Wars," to explain how to cut through the propaganda and find the truth.

SHOCKING: “Several boats a week” dropping off UNVETTED illegals on California beaches

The Biden-Harris administration claims that illegal immigration is down, but San Diego County Supervisor Jim Desmond joins Glenn to expose the reality in southern California. Between September 2023 and June 2024, Border Patrol dropped off 155,000 illegal immigrants in the county, he argues. But although this suspiciously stopped right before the election heated up, Desmond says that tons of illegals are still being shipped out of the city every day by bus to Arizona and every week by plane to Texas. And to make matters worse, “several boats a week” have been dropping off UNVETTED illegal immigrants into San Diego County for months. "We have no idea who these people are," he argues, "and thanks to California’s sanctuary state laws, local law enforcement can’t do anything about it."
