Happy Columbus Day, Wake Up Right fam! At some point today, you may encounter a liberal weirdo who wishes you a Happy “Indigenous People’s Day.” If you’re not sure how to respond, The Sopranos has you covered…
Back in 2002, Tony Soprano’s son comes home from school, indoctrinated by his history teacher to hate Columbus. His response was:
“He discovered America, is what he did! He was a brave Italian explorer! And in this house Christopher Columbus is a hero! End of story!”

Trump unveils ‘Operation Aurora’
Donald Trump unveiled "Operation Aurora" — his plan to eliminate the criminal network of illegal alien Venezuelan gangs operating across the United States.
The details: During a rally in Aurora, Colorado, on Friday, Trump committed to invoking the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to target and deport "every criminal network" operating on U.S. soil, sealing the border to stop illegal immigration.
Trump told the crowd the initiative was “in honor of Jocelyn Nungaray, Laken Riley — beautiful Laken — Rachel Morin, and all of the others that are dead, and/or mortally wounded at the hands of migrants who should never have been allowed into our country.”
What is the Foreign Enemies Act of 1798? It’s a law passed as part of the broader Alien and Sedition Acts during the presidency of John Adams that gives the president power to detail or deport illegals from countries considered enemies.
Back up: Trump chose Aurora as the namesake for his initiative because the state has been dealing with a flood of Venezuelan illegals from gangs like Tren de Aragua, which is known for homicide, extortion, rape, drug smuggling, and human trafficking.
Zoom out: According to recent Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) data, there are currently more than 13,000 illegal aliens convicted of murder currently in the United States.
What do Americans think? A recent poll found that 54% of Americans support mass deportation of illegals.
A step further: Trump announced that any previously deported alien caught crossing the border would automatically receive 10 years in prison. He also called for the death penalty for illegals who kill American citizens.
Big picture: Last week, Kamala Harris said there was “not a thing” she’d change about her and Joe Biden’s time in the White House. So, you should assume she does not regret allowing violent gangs into your communities.

Let’s hear it for the bros
Donald Trump has a new, energized ally in the 2024 election: Young men.
The details: Throughout the 2024 campaign, Donald Trump has leaned into courting young male voters — appearing on podcasts and at sporting events that cater to the demographic.
Podcasts: So far, Trump has sat for long-form interviews on podcasts that have racked up tens of millions of views, like:
🎙️ Impaulsive [mega-star Logan Paul]
🎙️ Flagrant 2 [comedian Andrew Schulz]
🎙️ Full Send podcast [YouTubers, the Nelk Boys]
🎙️ This Past Weekend [comedian Theo Von]
🎙️ The Lex Fridman podcast
🎙️ Shawn Ryan Show
🎙️ Adin Ross podcast
🎙️ X Space with Elon Musk [similar to podcast]
Other appearances: Trump is a frequent guest at UFC events and college sports. He’s even made some guest appearances at frat houses, where he’s pictured grilling burgers and tossing a football.
Trump’s ad placements even target bro voters with effective commercial spots during Sunday football.
Mobilizing the bros: The aforementioned Nelk Boys have mounted a multi-million-dollar campaign to register young men to vote, targeting them at music festivals and sporting events.
But is it working? A recent NY Times poll found that 53% of male voters support Trump vs. just 42% who support Kamala.
Enthusiasm: In October 2020, 29% of 18-29 year-old voters said they were "almost certain" to vote. Today, that group is up to 54%.
Dems are panicking: The Kamala Harris campaign has dispatched Barack Obama and Tim Walz to try and bring young men back into the fold.
Obama scolded the "brothers" who aren't supporting Kamala, suggesting they were being sexist.
Walz held a highly publicized pheasant hunt over the weekend, but was videotaped having trouble loading his own shotgun. [Video in the ‘Clickable’ section]
Real talk from G: The problem Democrats have is a lack of authenticity. They dispatch Barry and Tampon Tim, who essentially portray the caricatures of the men they’re trying to reach. Donald Trump does not dress in camo to reach hunters — He vows to protect their Second Amendment rights. Trump doesn’t put on a fake accent to reach Black voters — He tells them how he plans to empower them economically.
