Each year for nearly a century, TIME Magazine has been identifying the man or woman who has, for better or worse, done the most to shape the world and the headlines over the previous twelve months. As its Person of the Year for 2024, the TIME editors chose the once and future President Donald J. Trump, whom they rightly note has played a larger role in changing the course of politics and history than anyone else over the last decade.
It is important to keep in mind, however, that TIME’s “Person of the Year” is usually but not necessarily intended to celebrate the honoree; hence, past selections have included such notorious figures as Hitler and Stalin. The magazine’s commentary on Trump makes it clear that its editors see him in the same light as those evil icons. They describe him as a grievance-mongering, vengeful, raging authoritarian and convicted criminal who intends to smash “the norms of liberal democracy” which TIME believes are upheld by the Democrat Party. They voted for Trump as Person of the Year because they cannot deny his influence and impact, but they obviously deeply resent that this “strongman” who threatens not only to derail the Left’s freight train toward one-party hegemony, but to remake the entire entrenched political order, simply will not go away no matter what obstacle they throw in his path: relentless lawfare, a coordinated media campaign to demonize him as Hitler 2.0, even assassination attempts.
Speaking of the latter: it’s difficult not to see divine intervention, or the hand of destiny if you prefer, at work in Trump’s miraculous survival of the shooting at a Butler, Pennsylvania rally earlier this year, where a slight turn of his head at the sound of a sniper’s first shot resulted in the second bullet merely nicking his ear rather than lethally shattering his skull. In a moment that will live in history despite the media’s attempt to send it down the memory hole, Trump then rose up with a pumping fist amid his Secret Service cover, exhorting the crowd to “Fight!” It was this moment that singularly demonstrated his fearless pugnacity, galvanized his supporters like never before, and arguably sealed his election victory.
Each year FrontPage Magazine too reviews the past twelve months and selects a Man or Woman of the Year, and like TIME, for 2024 we too have chosen Trump. But unlike TIME, our award is meant to unreservedly celebrate the honoree. Past recipients of the title, for example, include freedom fighters Geert Wilders (2008), Stephan K. Bannon (2016), and – last year – a collective choice, the Israeli Defense Forces soldier.
Unlike TIME and the rest of the mainstream Left-wing news media, we at the Freedom Center see Donald Trump as a patriot and a man of the people. Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz, who tried to sell himself to voters as a relatable, Midwestern, regular guy, struggled to understand after the election how he and Kamala could have lost to a New York City billionaire. Part of the answer is that Americans found Walz and Harris to be inauthentic, out-of-touch radicals representing a Party that put ideology over country, whereas they believed Trump truly loves this country and his fellow Americans, truly believes in American exceptionalism (you may recall that former President Barack Obama dismissed American exceptionalism as, well, unexceptional), and has a vision for propelling America out of its Democrat-driven decline back to preeminent superpower status. Voters wanted a leader to Make America Great Again.
And so Trump, spuriously denied a reelection victory in 2020, crushed Harris, in the electoral college and popular vote, to make a jaw-dropping comeback against all odds and claim a mandate from the American people for hope and change. Not the sort that Obama had peddled – a “fundamental transformation” of the United States – but the sort that patriotic Americans have been craving ever since Obama began implementing his globalist, post-American agenda.
The stunning red landslide in November left his Democrat and Never-Trump haters demoralized, shell-shocked and exhausted. They knew they were in trouble pitting the epically incompetent, media-inept Harris against the comeback kid Trump, but deep down they could not process the unfathomable possibility that their nemesis could ever actually re-occupy the White House. They are still trying to process it.
Democrats and establishment Republicans alike both fear and hate Trump because he is not a lifelong careerist politician but a political outsider who ran (and won) on taking a wrecking ball to the Deep State and the status quo. But in his first term, Trump struggled to find his footing and to surround himself with the right people; he barely managed to get the draining of the D.C. swamp underway.
This time around, his thinking-outside-the-box picks for his forthcoming administration – e.g. Robert F. Kennedy Jr., Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard, and more – show not only savvier instincts but also a bold determination to upend politics-as-usual. That MAGA counterrevolution has already begun and Trump hasn’t even settled back into the Oval Office yet.
Domestically, Trump – who has vowed to make border security, including the mass deportation of illegals, a Day One focus – has already initiated back-channel discussions with the governments of Mexico and El Salvador to coordinate the deportations. The Left’s racist DEI programs, which Trump has condemned, that were corroding every institution from the military to corporate America to higher education, are already being rolled back. Employees of bloated bureaucratic agencies, in the crosshairs of Trump’s new Department of Government Efficiency commission, are already preparing to jump ship.
Internationally, even CNN acknowledges that “Trump’s victory is forcing a massive geopolitical reassessment. From Europe to Taiwan and Iran to Russia, foreign leaders are gaming out how to deal with the unpredictability of Trump’s return.” Trump has put the brakes, for example, on our hurtling toward World War III by putting Putin and Zelensky on notice that he will end the war in Ukraine. Israel, at war on several fronts against the existential enemies of the West, is reassured that it once again has no better ally in the White House, while our enemy China knows it no longer has an American President in its pocket. Globalist institutions like the World Health Organization, which Trump vows to exit, are panicking that a nationalist is in the White House and they can no longer count on U.S. funding.
These are just a few of the ways in which a new Trump era is poised to radically reset national and world affairs in ways that, as Victor Davis Hanson put it, will herald a return to sanity.
For demonstrating resolute courage in the pursuit of resurrecting American exceptionalism, for loosening the stranglehold the Left has on political and cultural power in this country, for galvanizing and empowering the movement to Make America Great Again – Donald J. Trump is FrontPage Magazine’s Man of the Year for 2024.

Man of the year means the most influential whether in a negative or positive way. NAOMI WOLF ,ex-Leftist,author of ”The Beauty Myth” (1990) has written several articles for Frontpagemag giving all the evidence proving the anticovid vaccine by Pfizer that GENETICALLY modifies people, is NO vaccine.
RFK Jr has proven it was created by FAUCI,illegally using American money,in a Wuhan laboratory.
FRANCIS COLLINS,famous American scientists,born-again Evangelical, head of the Human Genome Project,author of ”The Language of God: A Scientist Presents Evidence for Belief ”(2006), is also a criminal.Similar to Mengele. He helped Fauci force people to be vaccinated by Pfizer,knowing it was no vaccine,and genetically modifies you.
Collins continues to lie saying the vaccine is harmless,and is a real vaccine.Mengele would be proud.
When you learn all the details you learn that Naomi Wolf never mentions some things.Like the leaders and countries that refused to have their people genetically modified by the Pfizer vaccine.Instead they used anti-malaria medication (Ivermectin,Hydroxychloroquin) and also real,authentic anticovid vaccines that did NOT genetically modify and destroy,
yes,literally destroy, the body’s IMMUNE system to the covid virus.
From hindsight we know know this: the Globalists leaders ( Soros and Klaus Schwab) decided to created a covid virus that would kill humans. Before the virus could only infect some animals. Humans were immune.Fauci genetically modified it.
The Globalists are MALTHUSIANS.
The believe there are too many humans,8 billion,best to have 500 million at most.Low birth rates and decreasing birth rates in many countries is not enough.
The anticovid vaccine they created (Pfizer and others) uses a mRNA-based vaccine therapy created by DR ROBERT MALONE. He at first accepted it as a real vaccine,now he says it kills,causes cancer, is no vaccine,
no protection against Covid, causes heart attacks everywhere AND this:
1. If you got Covid and had NOT had a Pfizer injection you became NATURALLY immune. To what? To ALL forms of Covid virus,to any mutation in the future,even if a new one appears that kills 90% of victims. Immune to all possible covid virus mutations.
2. However if AFTER becoming naturally immune to Covid you got the Pfizer vaccine, since it genetically modifies you, you literally
LOSE the natural immunity to all and any Covid virus mutations. Your immune system against the Covid virus gets destroyed.
The plan of the Globalists was this,to control the world they wanted to get EVERYBODY vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine. All would have to have a bar code as proof otherwise no work,no health care, no travel. Control the world population.
In the WEST they even outlawed Ivermectin and Hydrochloquin, medicines with 40 years of proof that they are safe, almost never cause secondary reactions and it was proven they in a few days KILL all the Covid viruses in your body. Then you become
naturally immune to all and any virus mutations. Thus no need for the Pfizer or any vaccine.
However it was all destroyed by the appearance of a real vaccine that has an 80% effectiveness. And much of the world used it.
Does not cause cancer, no blood clots killing you with heart attack, NO genetic modification of your DNA.
It takes at least 5 years to create a real vaccine.
The first vaccine against Covid was Sputnik,it came out in AUGUST 2020, even before the Pfizer vaccine. Russian vaccine. Study after study has shown it is a real vaccine. That means that years before by chance the Russians had created a real vaccine in case Covid and I assume other viruses mutated and began to infect humans. Logical.
Putin offered the formula to other nations to create it on their own and soon there was the ”Chinese vaccine”, the ”Cuban vaccine”, ”Venezuelan vaccine”. Really the same one.
All those nations PROHIBITED the Pfizer vaccine,no genetic modification of their people.
Later on INDIA prohibited Pfizer and Moderna vaccines,no genetic modification of their people.
The Globalist dream was shattered.
In AFRICA they were too poor to buy the Pfizer vaccine ($700 per shot) and only 10% got injected. Instead the 1 billion Africans either got covid,almost always a light version,or killed it all in 4 days with Ivermectin or Hydroxychloroquin. Then became naturally immune to any virus mutation of Covid.
It seems 45% of the world population never got genetically modified.And thus nautrally immune to Covid is great because it PREVENTS this:
the Globalists will not dare to release from a lab a NEW and far more lethal version of Covid,say one that kills 50%-80%.
Why not do it?
If they do soon ALL in the WEST will see NOBODY in Russia, China,Venezuela,Cuba,most in India, 90% in Africa
DIE because of the new,mortal mutation.While 50%-80% of Canadians,Americans,Europeans, Australians,New Zelanders,Japanese, South Koreans, tens of millions in Latin America, and
also ISRALIES would die.
End of Israel as a state.
And,I assume,maybe I am wrong,the peoples in the West will revolt and overthrow the Globalists,arrest Soros and Klaus Schwab. Putin’s actions saved a great deal of humanity.
The good news is the fact Sputnik turned out to be authentic and thus we can have confidence in this,a few months ago Putin publicly stated that they are in the LAST STAGE of
creating a true vaccine against CANCER.
Unfortunately the same lemmings will line up for the next MRNA shot, and the next ad-nauseum.
Two of my associates are fighting turbo cancers after their Covid boosters. Their tumors started within weeks of their shots.
It’s all a coincidence of course.
Tragic,even more is that in the West they also created this:
an mRNA-1273 Vaccine for Children 6 Months to 5 Years of Age.
And many children were vaccinated.
There is also another one for children 5 to 11 years old.
DOUG MACGREGOR is a serious geopolitical analyst,military officer who has been interviewed several times by TUCKER CARLSON.
Carlson a few days ago interviewed JEFFREY SACHS,great economist and geopolitical analyst.
We know for a fact TRUMP regularly listens to Carlson’s podcasts and MacGregor and Sachs are very pro-multipolar world and pro-BRICS.
Both have contacts who give them reliable information. For that reason I believe what colonel MacGregor said very recently: that today in DAMASCUS, capital of Syria, there is an OPEN AIR market where,like
before under ISIS, women are being sold as SEX SLAVES.
Other info is:
1. The new minister of information and media under Jolani has passed a law OUTLAWING the production of music, TV shows and movies.
2. The new minister of health has passed a law OUTLAWING female doctors from working, except for gynecologists.
3. The new minister of justice has passed a law OUTLAWING female judges and female lawyers from working. 30% of judges in Syria are women.
The Syrian constitution has been suspended,which was a SECULAR one.
I brought FIVE BOXES OF Ivermectin back from Mexico, no prescription needed. My brother gave it to a man who worked on a Navajo reservation, eventually closed during Covid, and he was very sick. I kept one box, and he gave three to his friend. Eight days later, GONERS, and his taste buds came back, and this after months of being ill. Lots of Covid deaths on the Rez… but now finding out during Thanksgiving, that lots of meth, crack, and FENTANYL with many deaths, unreported. Same in nearby Magdalena, and now add heroin in Socorro, Pop. 10,000 with ELEVEN DISPENSARIES! ????
THE COUP AND ASSASSINATION PLOTTERS are ready for their numerous acts that will bog down Trump with Hoax after Hoax that takes years to disprove. Pull back the curtain, and there’s Bill Clinton, (Yes, Bill hates Trump more than Hillary and he’s using all his contacts) Obama, Biden, Pelosi, Schumer, and the FBI, CIA, with many lower level actors that have been part of it all for years!
…and is why Trump unleashing Ka$h Patel or anyone after the Deep State won’t accomplish one thing against a system entrenched in treason.
We don’t even have a Constitutional military to depend on.
It doesn’t leave us with many choices.
Pay close attention to Trump’s new cabinet, they are already working against American citizens and they have not even taken office.
Musk/Trump are all in on increasing H1-B visas day one.
I took the Pfizer “vaccine.” It didn’t hurt me at all. Of course, I’m indestructible and you witless mortals have to bask in my glory.
Thanks. Where I worked in 2020, all staff had to get a vaccine to continue to work. When I say that among a couple of hundred of staff there were no vaccine side effects, the social media crowd gleefully assures me that all of them will have cancer soon and die to prove their point.
Im not for vaccines, especially Covid vaccines, nor am I against all vaccines.
I do not believe that Naomi. Wolf sincerely stopped being a leftist. And that despicable buffoon, Colonel McGregor, is a known liar and Israel hater.
Then what about RFK Jr’s mountain of evidence against Fauci and the Pfizer and Moderna vaccines?
Plus we have ELON MUSK and his actions against American professionals. Musk affirms the US has to give more and more and more and more H 1B visas to Indians.
It allows employers to employ foreign workers in specialty occupations and is the largest visa category for temporary worker. One has to have a bachelor’s degree, duration is three years, extendable to six years, after which you can reapply.
LAURA LOOMER and ANN COULTER have pointed out it is against ”America First” and ”Make America Great Again” since the facts are:
1. High tech companies LIE all the time and say they can’t find ANY American professional for such and such high-tech job.
2.There are now more than 600,000 H 1B Visa employees and they are paid far LESS than an equally qualified American.
They also usually have to work 60 hours or more per week,and can NOT quick and get into a different company.If they quick they would lose their H 1B Visa.
Elon Musk wants all this in the name of ”efficiency” but he is just another ROBBER BARON:
a person who has become rich through ruthless and unscrupulous business practices,originally with reference to very rich US businessmen in the late 19th century: Vanderbilt, Rockefeller, Carnegie, Morgan .
Not applicable to HENRY FORD,who paid his workers TWICE as much and reduced the work shift from 12 HOURS to 8 HOURS a day.
Oops,I meant ”quit” instead of ”quick” for H1 B Visa workers.
1. The H 1 B visa program in theory is not a bad idea,but there are NO checks and balances that guarantee the above corrupt situation of exploiting foreign professionals with low pay and long,long,long hours
so high tech saves lots of money
while lying about not being able to find equally qualified American professionals cease to exist.
2. And if the foreign professionals complain they are fired,deported,and new docile ones imported.
And STEVE BANNON has come out against Elon Musk on this.
3. What TRUMP should say now and do,is carry out a REFORM of the H 1 B visa program.
4. Imagine the same situation shortly before WW II?
EINSTEIN would have got in under a H 1 B Visa,find that even though he is the greatest scientist of his time, he would get paid far LESS than an American with a similar post, work inhuman hours,
and being Einstein would have protested,have been fired,deported,
and ended up in a gas chamber in Auschwitz.
5. ANN COULTER said ”they don’t want employees,they want INDENTURED SERVANTS”.
The reason ELON MUSK got his position in the Trump government is because he gave 250 million dollars to the campaign. Plus an additional 20 million by others in the High Tech Industry,popularly called the TECH BROS.
Here is a video that gives more details,in my opinion impartial and accurate:
Yes, I didn’t want to take a “vaccine” but somebody came to my door and pestered me until I acquiesced, and I got it right in my apartment lobby. No big deal for me. Nothing seems to hurt me.
I remember when I was in Kindergarten and first grade I got a bunch of shots that I was told were vaccines. I don’t even know what they were although I assume at least one of them was Salk’s polio vaccine, which is one of the most brilliant, efficient and safe developments in human history.
The rest of the stuff, I don’t know. I’m still alive 55 years later so I don’t care.
I am amazed that writers and ‘thinkers’ can produce line upon line on events that are happening around them and the world and sometimes give solutions to problems of the world. I have lived for 89 yeas not and have relatively good health. What is perplexing to me is that I seldom, if ever, hear of the solution of prayer for our nation and its problems. We celebrate Christmas every year and seldom emphasize the Christ that we pretend to celebrate. Let me suggest that we begin to include the most famous birth in history with love and adoration of what He has done during his lifetime and the reason for His death–to redeem lost mankind from their sins and give adequate praise and thanksgiving for his Redemption for mankind. May God bless you all at the Horowitz organization.
I can’t wait for Inauguration Day when this great man once again becomes
leader of our country where he belongs.
Congratulations, President Trump for this accolade from writers and
thinkers who truly love America. No one deserves it more.
The irony is that Trump already is setting things/deals in place.
That’s not surprising, since Sleepy is more absentee than he was in the past four years. (So far his only actions are his auto-pen signing pardons to worse scum than Hunter, and “Trump-proofing” actions.)
The only time Sleepy was his own boss was his giving Afghanistan away (including Bagram Airbase), so he could have a narcissistic photo-op speech on 9/11’s 20th anniversary.
(His tough shit that the extreme incompetence in skulking out, ruined his planned event.)
His legacy is already in the sewer, but Democrats are always trawling for worse low-lifes for office. It’ll take serious effort to find worse than Sleazy Joe . . . but the DNC will certainly try.
I couldn’t have expressed it better! 🙂
TRUMP!!!
President-elect Donald Trump ignited a social media frenzy on Friday after he posted a bizarre message on Truth Social to Elon Musk, claiming Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates had requested to visit Mar-a-Lago.
Trump’s post read:
“Where are you? When are you coming to the “Center of the Universe,” Mar-a-Lago. Bill Gates asked to come tonight. We miss you and x! New Year’s Eve is going to be AMAZING!!! DJT,” the post read.
“They describe him as a grievance-mongering, vengeful, raging authoritarian and convicted criminal who intends to smash “the norms of liberal democracy” which TIME believes are upheld by the Democrat Party.”
This description of Trump show clearly that the Left didn’t learn a thing from the shellacking they got on November 5.
That’s fine by me. I hope they keep going down the same loser rabbit hole. They will be in the political wilderness for the entire Vance presidency as well, and maybe beyond.
Leftism always implodes, eventually. And we have history on our side, and 30 years of Clinton/Obama/Biden Commie progressivism to prove it.
“UNCLE! UNCLE! UNCLE!” The World, even enemies, are saying it. Meeting, calling, and writing good things about him. Why? He should never turn his back on them, which is why he’s picking people who will have his back, not stab him in the back!
For years, the Democrats, MSM, and the World dragged Trump to the Public Square to STONE HIM with the Scandal of the Week written on the Stones. For over two years, it was the Russian Collusion Stones, but in the end, nothing was found except that it was a Democrat-funded hoax which they got away with, so they all walked away LAUGHING since he was still laying there beaten to a bloody pulp.
DON’T WORRY THOUGH… these corrupt and even TREASONOUS Democrats are already plotting many things to distract him for another four years. It doesn’t matter if they are hoaxes because it’s nearly impossible to disprove them, and even if it is proven, it takes years to do it and that’s what they want.
TRUMP AND MAGAS are hated more than Communist dictators, terrorist Nations and their proxies, and they will get them fired, won’t hire them, dox them, accuse them, attack them, intimidate them, and retaliate against them!
PLANS ARE FOR PROTESTS ON J6 AND J20 and even demanding Congress does not certify his victory…. wait… INSURRECTION… AND PLANS TO RIOT, LOOT, AND BURN CITIES DOWN… AGAIN! The main groups plotting this is ANSWER, The Party for Socialism and Liberation, The Revolutionary Communist Party, The Red Nation, and the Communist Party USA… ALL WITH THE APPROVAL OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY…. THE ENEMY WITHIN!
NOW BILL GATES is saying “UNCLE!” He wants to meet with Trump at Mar-a-Lago. I wouldn’t trust that POS! He’d probably infect the place with the next Virus.
Hopefully Musk does release the Epstein List to show Gates, Bill Clinton, and so many Democrats. Too bad Melinda Gates doesn’t reveal all now that she’s already secured her riches.
FYI, The Gates Empire started here in Albuquerque. The small office has a large plaque on it and now it’s hardly visible due to the HOMELESS TENTS BLOCKING THE WHOLE BUILDING. Our homeless are very creating and now building two-story shacks. A must see. Too bad photos aren’t allowed which should be sent to the billionaire in hopes he’d help them…. or he’d demand they be removed!
He’s my man of the year, too. He’s so cool!
Trump and Musk are also discussing increasing H-1B visas to bring in more foreign tech workers while the unemployment rate for American tech workers is already at record levels and skyrocketing.
Pay close attention to the new incoming treasury secretary, specifically his intentions on the IRS and the national flat sales or income tax. For example, it is not so flat after all and believes a flat rate sales tax of 20% for a middle class family grocery bill is fair but the same 20% tax on a $2 million dollar yacht is unfair and should be adjusted down to 5% or less. I am certain that 20% flat tax on the food bill will hurt a working family more than 20% on those who can afford a $2 million dollar yacht.
I am happy to see Trump back as President but I do not trust the snakes in his cabinet.
The devil is in the details. Pay close attention the coming months.
Although a most slimey and horrible citizen we should all give thanks for the vote steal and Bidens tenure. If Trump would have won 2020 his power would have been highly contested and very limited. Scummy Joe and his democrat associates, although very costly to America in all ways, did expos much of the deep state’s corrupt agenda and moral degeneracy, of it’s power mongering operatives in all branches. and enough of America saw it and stood up and said,Hell no!! Thank you very much for that, you corrupt grifting, scumbag lowlife POS, traitor,. Hopefully your degenerate family members and “democrat associates” will also soon be gone or suffering a traitors/criminals fate, you and they deserve no sympathy or mercy from real Americans.
I don’t know what kind of suck-nuggetry Trump is pulling here………….but I don’t like it.
“Trump Posts Bizarre Truth Social Message Allegedly Directed at Elon Musk — Claims Bill Gates Requested Mar-a-Lago Meeting”
GATEWAY PUNDIT
Bill Gates should have already been executed for conducting germ warfare against humanity.
If he shows up at Mar a Lago in a tuxedo………..my respectmeter for Trump will be going to ZERO.
You talk about putting the SUCK into success………..
“Where are you? When are you coming to the “Center of the Universe,” Mar-a-Lago. Bill Gates asked to come, tonight. We miss you and x! New Year’s Eve is going to be AMAZING!!! DJT,” the post read.
Two failed Assination Attempts and despite the M.S. Media Bottom Feeders Trump was Reelected by the American People Soros Failed Big Time
Thank you Front Page Magazine! I went door to door in PA for Trump using Scott Pressler’s app EarlyVoteAction. Although, it was targeting low propensity Republican voters I ran into a few Democrat voters. Except for one lady, they were all for Trump. And that lady actually help me find some Trump voters for me. She initially said Trump was a convicted killer. When I calmly explained the illegal lawfare against Trump, she changed her tune dramatically.
