The eventual collapse of the Harris-Walz campaign can be partly traced back to many things. The Dems ended up showing Biden the door and replacing him with a far-Left nominee with a record and past comments they worked hard to hide. The whole campaign was fake and that was obvious, but then they brought Tim Walz aboard to win over midwestern men. Yeah, we’re still laughing at that one too.
Harris also avoided tough interviews and even botched the softball ones. That brings us to what James Carville blames to a large degree for Harris getting wiped out on election day, which was her answer to a question from Sunny Hostin on “The View” about what she’d do different from Biden. You might remember Harris’ answer: “There is not a thing that comes to mind in terms of — and I’ve been a part of most of the decisions that have had impact.”
James Carville said that was a turning point:
James Carville on how Sunny Hostin ended Kamala Harris' campaign: "When we go back and history unearths this, it's going to be right there on the View. Sunny Hostin, Houston, whatever asked the question. That's the most devastating answer you can imagine."
Think about it: The legacy media is wondering why they’ve lost their influence and all they need to do is realize that the most telling question that exposed Harris’ lack of preparation came from one of the panelists of Kamala cheerleaders on “The View.”
After dispatching the Clinton’s and Bush’s, Obama has almost self-destructed. After weaponizing the DOJ/FBI/CIA against Trump, he still couldn’t stop him and it has come back to haunt him. He’ll be known as the Marxist he really is and how he tried to destroy America through his and Biden’s terms.
Here’s How:
Obama’s biographer reveals ex-president fears for his legacy after ‘tone-deaf preaching’ harmed Harris campaign
Barack Obama and his wife Michelle have been slammed by his biographer for ‘talking down’ to voters in ‘tone-deaf and clueless’ preaching that harmed Kamala Harris‘ ill-fated presidential campaign.
The effect was so bad that – combined with Donald Trump‘s victory – it is likely to reduce the 44th president’s political relevance to ‘Bill Clinton levels’, David Garrow said in an exclusive interview with DailyMail.com.
‘People do not want to be talked down to, no matter who they are,’ the 71-year-old Pulitzer Prize winner said.
‘I thought it was tone-deaf and clueless for them to preach as they did,’ he told DailyMail.com.
‘I would expect that perception will be shared by lots of people. If so, I think it reduces their relevance to Bill Clinton territory.’
Barack Obama drew criticism for comments he made to a room of black men on October 11, saying he detected a lack of ‘energy’ that was ‘more pronounced with the brothers’ – and added that ‘it makes me think that, well, you just aren’t feeling the idea of having a woman as president’.
Michelle Obama gave a speech on October 27 railing against Trump’s stance on abortion, admonishing men considering voting for the former president that ‘a vote for him is a vote against us’.
Besides being the single greatest comeback story – political or otherwise – in American history, there are at least two other crucial takeaways from Tuesday’s romp.
First, it is evident that the 2008 Barack Obama Democratic Party intersectional coalition has died. It is not that the coalition is wounded or endangered; it is that it is dead. Trump made historic inroads with Hispanic voters, Black voters, young voters and other demographic subgroups that have been vital to the Democrats since 2008. Trump won the nation’s single most Hispanic county – 97% Hispanic Starr County, Texas – by 16%. Queens County, New York, famously one of the most ethnically and racially diverse counties in the country, moved over 20 points toward Trump from his 2020 performance. Overall, Trump won just under half the national Hispanic vote, and he made historic inroads with black men. Voters under the age of 35, such a core Democratic constituency in the not-so-distant past, are now a swing voting bloc.
Obamaism is dead. Trump was right. Americans don’t want Marxists or Commies.
The discussion is below, but from my point of view, it is having a terrible candidate, calling half of the voters names like Nazis and fascists, not using new media (X and Podcasts) that people listen to, and having an incompetent staff running things. Oh, let’s not forget that the 2 prior democratic regimes were Marxists who hated America. Letting in illegals that made the country unsafe and destroying a good economy didn’t help either.
They could have listened to the people and we would have told them, but the media don’t listen to anyone, to the point of irrelevance.
Being woke and bowing to the trannies being in the girls’ locker rooms and sports teams was a line voters drew in the sand.
Anyway, here is the analysis from those smarter than me.
In the wake of Donald Trump’s crushing presidential victory over Vice President Kamala Harris, the major media are indicting all the usual suspects, beginning with claimed “disinformation” from conservative sources. But these targets, though falsely accused, do point to the true culprits.
Morning Joe’s Scarborough, for example, blamed the failure to elect Kamala Harris on misogynistic black and Hispanic males. Other commentators claimed that it was the uneducated females who were not true to the cause. Sunny Hostin of The View noted that Trump’s victory was one of “cultural resentment,” because America could not elect a mixed-race female married to a Jewish man. David Axelrod said that racial bias and misogyny could not be ignored in this election.
The media have projected a dark turn for the country. The New York Times editorial board called the election result a “perilous choice,” with America on the “precipice” of an “authoritarian style of governance.” Historian John Meacham cited the treasonous attempted “coup” of January 6 as proving a fascist victory.
Now to more specific finger-pointing from the media. Many media commentators are criticizing Harris, citing her failure to name Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro as her running mate. Of course, Joe Biden hampered Harris, they write, by waiting so long to drop out, after stubbornly staying in a race he should not have entered to begin with. And don’t forget the awful performance of Tim Walz, an attractive target for many in the media.
In all of these discussions, the media do not point to a prominent element common to each of the perceived problems: the media themselves. Of course, the media were too compromised by partisan motives to report what they had known for most of Biden’s term: he clearly suffered from advanced dementia. As Axios political reporter Hans Nichols recently noted on Fox’s America’s Newsroom, the media came down hard on any reporter who proposed a well sourced story on Biden’s lack of acuity, because that would help Trump.
Publicizing this infirmity would have had several salutary results. Obviously, as all disappointed Democrats now appear to admit, Biden should have dropped out of the race earlier. But the same media relaying this judgment do not point a finger at themselves for aiding and abetting his clueless clinging to power.
Perhaps more significantly, there was no media voice questioning the president’s fitness for office per the 25th Amendment. This amendment was explicitly meant for the exact situation this country faced these past four years: presidential senility. This issue is important in a world exploding into war, from Ukraine to the Middle East to the Taiwan Straits. But the media put partisan politics above world peace and national security.
After Biden was forced to drop out of the race when Nancy Pelosi finally brandished the 25th Amendment, were the media truthful about their past dereliction? Of course not. A typical reaction is from MSNBC’s vaunted media guru, Brian Stelter. His apologia’s headline says it all: “Did the media botch the Biden age story? Asleep at the wheel? Complicit in a cover-up? The real story is more complicated — and more interesting.” Clearly, the media could not be honest even when their dishonesty was apparent to all.
When vaunted reporter Bob Woodward received undeniable evidence of Biden’s disturbing mental deficits in June 2023, clearly not a recent development, he refrained from publicizing his sources’ observations (which would have helped our country) so that he could instead monetize them in a bestseller, published only after Biden withdrew from the race.
The media did far more than hide Biden’s condition and thwart the Democrat primary process. They themselves became a big motive for the electorate to rebel against the conventional wisdom promulgated regarding Donald Trump. There can be no doubt that the partisan lawfare campaign against Trump, criminalizing political differences, can have caused its resonating backlash only if voters believed that the media were attempting to thereby “Watergate” Trump unfairly. Indeed, the Biden forces behind these charges would have made them only if they knew that the media would jump to magnify this thin gruel of questionable claims.
When the media rambled incessantly about Trump’s alleged criminality, they certainly provided talking points that cemented the opposition already disfavoring Trump. But to citizens of common sense, who do not wish to be told what to think, the media simply were revealing their true partisan colors. Most citizens are not so dumb as to fail to see through these weak charges, quickly realizing that snake oil was being sold to them. No one likes to be defrauded. No one wants to be insulted. And citizens who feel insulted and defrauded are highly motivated to vote.
The media could not be content with smearing Trump. Rather, they went so far as to shame his supporters. Not satisfied with Hillary Clinton’s slurring Trump-supporters as “deplorable,” the media in 2024 ratcheted up the defamation by comparing Trump and his supporters with Hitler and his Nazis. Three major left-leaning publications displayed covers with Trump’s countenance morphing into Hitler’s. Those attending a raucous, joyful Madison Square Garden rally were compared to Nazi enthusiasts at Nuremburg. As the New York Times put it, melodramatically, the voters gave “a permission slip” to an “authoritarian.”
The understandable gloating of Trump-supporters did not, interestingly, strongly focus on Kamala Harris or Joe Biden. There were numerous Trump voters, however, who delighted in the tearful recriminations of the televised media talking heads. Numerous Trump voters tuned in to The View just to watch the meltdown.
The media kept Biden on stage far beyond his shelf life. The media ridiculed Trump as Hitler. They falsely assured the country that Harris’s vacuous campaign was excellent, which served to convince her advisers that it needed no course correction. The Democrats, wishing future victories, will engage sincerely in soul-searching in hopes of improvement. But so long as the media do not act similarly, the Democrats will continue to deceive themselves in this postmortem.
The Harris campaign raked in over a whopping $1 billion in contributions by October, just three months after Joe Biden bowed out of the race in July. Despite the glittering figure, Harris lost in a landslide. And to add insult to injury, the campaign made some pretty stupid financial decisions that include millions to an influencer recruitment agency and splashy private jets, according to a new report Friday from the Washington Examiner.
Most embarrassing, however, is the reported amount of money the campaign spent recreating Alex Cooper’s “Call Her Daddy” set in a Washington, D.C., hotel room for her sit-down interview with the vice president: $100,000.
story
And this is part of how you waste $1 billion and get nothing for your money. Mismanagement of the campaign would have lead to mismanagement of the Government. We got lucky to only have 4 years of the Biden/Harris losers
The media shifted this election. Going on podcasts that people listen to has a much larger audience and is far more influential. The winners recognized this pattern and the losers never saw it coming and relied on their propagandists in the media.
If the 2024 presidential contest proved anything, it’s that the mass media no longer drive the national conversation. They can no longer stoke fear and outrage in average voters. They can no longer prop up terrible candidates. And, like him or not, President-elect Donald Trump’s success with black, Hispanic and Jewish voters, if exit polls are even close to correct, proves that the entire “fascist” scare was a flop.
Indeed, the establishment press are less trusted than virtually any major institution in American life. It’s a well-earned ignominy. It’s also a tragedy for a free nation that we have a barely functioning press. Reporters probably tell themselves they’re disliked because they’re fearless truth-tellers. But, far more likely, it’s a referendum on their deceit.
A massive slap-fight has broken out between Joe Biden’s and Kamala Harris’s camps – with each blaming the other for Harris’ historic loss to Donald Trump.
According to Axios, “In response to Trump’s decisive victory, aides in both camps are blaming the other for being more responsible, according to interviews with more than a dozen people in the White House and Harris’ campaign.”
One person in Harris’ camp told the outlet, “The 107-day Harris campaign was nearly flawless. The Biden campaign that preceded it was the opposite.”
Another Harris person told them, “We did what we could. I think the odds against us were insurmountable,” referring to Biden’s horrendous approval ratings and late exit from the race following his disastrous debate performance in June that revealed his brain is mush.
Former top Obama-turned-Harris aide David Plouffe posted on X that the Harris campaign had “dug out of a deep hole.” He later deleted his account.
Biden Team Strikes Back!
Responding to criticism of Biden top political aides Mike Donilon and Steve Ricchetti’s decision to run Biden “for re-election at 80 years old,” the Biden camp fire back – with one former staffer saying Harris’ team is making excuses.
“How did you spend $1 billion and not win? What the fuck?“
Another personfamiliar with the dynamics said that some on Biden’s team resent Harris for not using the president more during the campaign, even though he is unpopular and prone to gaffes.
mismanagement in the first degree. Money used to win elections. They forgot to put up a good candidate with a strategy and some values and tactics. They were losers all around.
A supervisor for the Federal Emergency Management Agency directed disaster relief workers in Florida to “avoid homes” with signs endorsing President-elect Donald Trump, the agency confirmed on Friday.
Marn’i Washington, a FEMA official, gave her directive both verbally and via a Microsoft Teams chat used by relief workers following the devastation caused by Hurricane Milton in October, the Daily Wire reported.
“Avoid homes advertising Trump,” Washington wrote in a “best practices” memo to staff.
The MSM is dead. Amazingly, the “more educated” left missed it completely. They wasted a billion dollars on the legacy media and advertising that Trump was Hitler when they could have sat down for free and talked to the American public.
Instead, they spent $1 million on Oprah, an unknown amount on Concerts, and had Beyonce show up to talk instead of sing. Outstandingly bad judgment and misuse of campaign funds.
Worse, it showed poor judgment of staff and how to run a campaign. They ran an entertainment show that wasn’t entertaining.
Running one of the worst and least qualified candidates is also a problem, but that’s another story. She couldn’t speak extemporaneously for 3 hours or 3 minutes. Everything was scripted on a teleprompter, just like Obama. That indicates their promises and the things they said weren’t sincere. They also had no clear vision of what they would do or how they would lead, and it would be exposed on a podcast.
The left are politicians, not leaders.
REPORT: @KamalaHarris Campaign PAID Oprah Winfrey $1,000,000 To Do The Interview With Her! They Presented It As A Journalistic Endeavor… THAT WAS A LIE! HARRIS DID NOT PRESENT IT AS A PAID POLITICAL AD, WHICH IT WAS, A VIOLATION OF FEDERAL LAW! pic.twitter.com/5swJpiLLaf
Steve Bannon talked about the legacy media’s decline on Friday morning. Bannon’s thoughts included giving priority to podcasters and independent journalists over the legacy media when it involves access to the President.
The video opens with footage of MSNBC contributors whining about why they lost the election. Bannon with his brilliance had some great things to say about them.
“You have to have content. If you have great content, it will find its audience,” Bannon said.
Bannon said that it is very important to focus on the next two years to secure a future for the MAGA movement.
“We got a lot of work to go through and if we don’t get these next two years right, forget ’28. You gotta chop wood now,” Bannon said.
Bannon said that it would be a great idea to move the media access outside of the West Wing and the White House.
“In ’17, my plan was to shut down that press thing where they do the briefings, put them across the street in the EOB, in the big auditorium,” Bannon said.
“Put the media over there. Get them out of the West Wing,” Bannon declared.
“The first three rows are all the podcasts, and the bros and all that. The first three rows are that new media, alternate media, the streaming services,” Bannon said of a shift in media priority.
Bannon plainly and directly called out the legacy media for their corruption and dishonesty.
“The legacy media is the enemy of the people. We just proved that. The people spoke after President Trump for four years, even his first term, has been vilified, vilified by these demons for years. You think we are going to reward you?” Bannon said.
“Put them in the fifth row, put them in the sixth row, hell, don’t even let them in the building, they are just gonna make up stuff anyway,” Bannon continued.
“Look at the polling, don’t take it from me, look at all their long faces every day,” Bannon said.
First of all, what a crybaby. The rest of the country put up with the destruction of Western Civilization for the last 4 years and 8 under Obama.
Speaking as an introvert, if someone doesn’t want to talk to me, especially about something stupid like this, I’d welcome it. I have some family members already picked out that I’d be ok losing. If they are this shallow and fragile, it might not be a bad thing.
Anyway, here’s her whining.
With women pledging to break up with their boyfriends and divorce their husbands over the Trump victory, Yale University chief psychiatry resident Dr. Amanda Calhoun is advising that it may also be necessary for your mental health to cut off your family and friends who supported Trump. In that way, you can avoid being “triggered” by opposing political views — much like Yale itself.
As academics, we are dealing with the election on campuses across America. After the election, I had some valuable discussions with students who supported Harris and some who supported Trump. I wish there would be more interaction between the two groups. That is why this story stood out for me. I do not believe that further separation or isolation will help this country or these individuals.
Dr. Calhoun went on MSNBC’s Joy Reid to offer the curious take on good mental health. Reid has spent the week condemning the majority of voters (particularly minority voters) in the nation as racists and misogynists for the Trump victory.
Reid joined a rising tide of rage, which I discussed in my column this weekend. Dr. Calhoun added her voice to the madness.
“So, if you are going into a situation where you have family members, where you have close friends who you know have voted in ways that are against you… it’s completely fine to not be around those people and to tell them why…
…You know, to say, ‘I have a problem with the way that you voted because it went against my very livelihood, and I’m not going to be around you this holiday. I need to take some space for me.’ I think you should very much be entitled to do so, and I think it may be essential for your mental health.”
I question her mental health also. Joy Reid is a racist, but I’ll deal with that in a later post
If you can’t take adversity in life, especially when it doesn’t really affect you other than your butt-hurt emotions, why would you trust them to run your business?
Harvard Professors Cancel Classes as Students Feel Blue After Trump Win
At 7 a.m. on Wednesday, Sophia R. Mammucari ’28 woke up to a phone call from her mom — and the news that Donald Trump had been officially reelected.
“I still had some hope that she was going to win by a small amount. And then I woke up this morning, and that’s not what happened,” Mammucari said. “I probably cried for like an hour.”
On election night, students gathered at viewing parties hosted by friends, House tutors, the Institute of Politics, and the Harvard Republican Club to watch results roll in.
The next morning, they woke up to a somber campus.
When Samantha M. Holtz ’28 googled the presidential election’s outcome before her Wednesday morning swim practice, her “heart dropped a little bit.”
“Being at Harvard, I was surrounded by a lot of people who were very pro-Harris, so in my mind it was already a decided election,” Holtz said. “It was a little bit shocking to me.”
The most coveted political endorsement of 2024 didn’t move the needle.
On Sept. 11, Taylor Swift praised Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign with a cat-themed snapshot. The most powerful celebrity on Earth had spoken, something Democratic pundits had been praying for ever since Harris entered the race.
It opened the celebrity floodgates. Bruce Springsteen. Beyonce. Lady Gaga. Arnold Schwarzenegger. Jennifer Aniston. Jennifer Lopez. Jeff Bridges. Ben Stiller. Will Ferrell. Julia Roberts. George Clooney.
The far-Left press had celebrated every endorsement. Now, some of the same platforms bemoaned that they had little to no effect on the race.
The collective endorsements may have backfired.
Yet for all the Gen Z courtship and endorsements from celebrities with legions of young fans, vote tallies showed that Harris significantly lost ground among 18- to 29-year-olds compared to Biden.
‘George Clooney – who cares?’ Did celebrity endorsements actually harm Kamala Harris?
Americans are hurting. High gas prices and record-levels of inflation have made life harder. Unfettered immigration has impacted communities across the country.
“It works to a point, but they have to win over rural America,” the actor continued. “Hollywood thinks it’s so important and that’s a problem. Actors are people too, and they’re citizens too, but I’m more on the small-town side of that than I am on the Hollywood side of that. That’s just me.”
When a majority of the electorate overwhelmingly says the country is moving in the wrong direction and they’re being financially crushed by inflation, don’t bother with policy. Offer them a song.
Sung by a rich person. Preferably a very rich person with a mansion — who can also lecture them on how to vote.
She’s right. Yet it won’t stop the flood of celebrity endorsements in the mid-terms or the 2028 presidential race.
“One of the big losers, the celeb crowd, we touched on this yesterday, Beyonce, loser, Oprah, huge loser, JLo — ‘You matter, you matter’ —loser, no one cares what you think. If you want to talk to me about what it is you’re doing to your skin, I’m all in, go on, you got my full attention. If you want to tell me who to vote for or what’s happening with the economy or immigration, please sit down,” Kelly said. “No one cares.”
…. and it certainly has delivered, including these main highlights.
The Taiwanese election in January 2024
Indian elections in April/May
European Parliamentary elections in June
The US Presidential Election in November.
So with the main events of 2024 now in the rearview mirror we can conclude that this has been a catastrophic year for incumbents at elections.
And not just in the US where Democrats have lost ground relative to four years earlier, but incumbents have also lost ground in the UK, France, India, Japan and South Africa as well this year.
It gets worse: an even more amazing stat comes from the FT, which reports that every governing party facing election in a developed country this year lost vote share, the first time this has ever happened!
Do they actually think that their plan will work? During this election, women overwhelmingly supported Kamala Harris and men overwhelmingly supported Donald Trump. So now some liberal women have decided that it is time for a nationwide sex strike in order to punish men for voting for Trump. Yes, they are quite serious about this…
Liberal women have sworn to go on sex strike over Donald Trump’s election win.
Mr Trump swept to victory in Tuesday’s presidential race that Democrats cast as a referendum on abortion rights and protections for women.
So let me get this straight. In order to “punish” us, these women are going to quit engaging in sexual immorality and start acting like chaste conservative Christian women?
And since they won’t be having sex, liberal women won’t be having as many abortions either. I think that we can all live with that.

Hollywood Star Promises She’s Leaving U.S. With Trump Victory
Hollywood star America Ferrera is reportedly “sick” that former President Donald Trump won the election against Vice President Kamala Harris and will be moving to the United Kingdom.
The 40-year-old actress reportedly said after the results of Trump’s victory that she was making plans to relocate herself, her husband Ryan Piers Williams, and their two kids overseas in order to give them the “best opportunities,” the Daily Mail reported.
I’ve never even heard of her.
And take a lot of other whining celebtards with you. They are a bunch of spoiled brats who think anyone cares about them.
We’re better off with you gone.
Hint: they aren’t going anywhere. It’s like the podcaster who was going to drink cyanide if Trump one. They are full of it.
It’s too bad they are liars. I’d love to see them gtf out.
My friend George’s Sister and BIL said they are leaving. I doubt it but as much as they whined, I’ll be glad to see them go also.
President Donald Trump really is building a multiracial populist coalition that is remaking American politics.
Of all the trends on Tuesday night that stand out, one of the most remarkable ones is the shift in the black vote to the right. The shift was especially pronounced with black men.
Trump appears to have made significant inroads with black Americans, at least according to some of the preliminary exit-polling data. Several state exit polls show the former president picking up a much larger percentage of the black vote than he did in either 2020 or 2016.
The Daily Signal depends on the support of readers like you. Donate now
Early exit polls released by CNN and Fox News showed Trump winning about 20% of black men in North Carolina and Georgia, and getting double digits among black voters in general. According to Politico, that’s a significant shift from 2020, “when Trump won 11% of black voters in Georgia and just 7% in North Carolina.”
It wasn’t just Georgia and North Carolina, however. Exit polls from NBC indicated a large shift in the black vote toward Trump in Wisconsin, as well.
And they called him racist the whole time like Maxine Waters, Al Sharpton and Kamala. Accusing someone of racism doesn’t make them racist. It’s more likely that the accuser is the real racist, like Waters and Sharpton.
Cardi B: Red-State Trump Vote Is ‘Why Some of Y’all States Be Getting Hurricanes’
Rapper Cardi B posted and then deleted a video on social media Tuesday night, exhibiting anger toward Southern states over Tuesday’s Election Day results.
Tone-deaf Cardi B expressed her anger as the states quickly turned red for President-elect Donald Trump.
“This is why some of y’all states be getting hurricanes,” she said in the short clip, in which she used a face filter.
The rapper did not name any specific states. However North Carolina, Louisiana, Texas and Florida were already called for Trump before the video was posted, according to Variety.

Hollywood shames America for electing Trump again: ‘AmeriKKKa is showing,’ ‘deep nihilism’
The nation’s TV, film, music and literary stars took to their digital pulpits Wednesday to condemn the sin of Americans for making Republican Donald Trump president again, as cataloged by the New York Post.
Rapper Cardi B lashed out at a fan on Instagram Live who wrote “we need you at the Trump inauguration.” The Grammy winner, whose real name is Belcalis Cephus and who campaigned in Milwaukee with Democratic nominee Kamala Harris last week, responded “I swear to God I’m gonna f*** you up, get away from me” and told Trump voters to “Burn your f***ing hats motherf***er.”
Actress Christina Applegate, who is fighting multiple sclerosis, wrote on X that her daughter is “sobbing because her rights as a woman may be taken away” and asked followers who disagree to “please unfollow me.”
Actress Yvette Nicole Brown spurned her sweet demeanor on cult sitcom “Community” by calling Trump’s win a “disgrace at a level I can’t even quantify” by “choosing a criminal. AmeriKKKa is showing out tonight,” she wrote on X.
“The fact that the country would choose to destroy itself by voting in a convicted felon rapist and Nazi is a sign of deep nihilism,” actor John Cusack wrote on X in a display of his high fidelity to unabashed progressivism.
“Glee” actor Kevin McHale despaired that “Supreme Court gone for the rest of my lifetime. Ultra-conservative evangelical bigotry, xenophobia, racism is the mandate.”
Author Stephen King compared American democracy to a shop that sells “beautiful but fragile items,” where whoever breaks it buys it, apparently accusing more than 70 million Trump voters of ending democracy.’
Jimmy Kimmel is a one trick pony. He hates Trump, but now he has new material daily. Do you think the loser is grateful? No, the once great Man Show host crumbled to tears because his insulated bubble of a world in Hollywood didn’t get it’s way on election day. It used to be girls jumping on trampolines. Now, he’s butt hurt because a real man is in the White House.
At least Adam Carroll, the other half of The Man Show kept his testicles.
This is why the real world should look at celebtards and do the opposite of what they say. I’m looking at you Taylor Swift
Jimmy Kimmel literally cried on TV last night because Donald Trump defeated Kamala Harris, pussy.
Kimmel mentioned everyone except Israel and Jews.
Everyone point and laugh:
Let’s be honest. It was a terrible night last night. It was a terrible night for women, for children, for the hundreds of thousands of hardworking immigrants who make this country go. For health care, for our climate.
For science. For Journalism. For justice, for free speech. It was a terrible night for poor people, for the middle class, for seniors who rely on Social Security. For our allies in Ukraine. For nato, for the truth. And democracy and decency, and it was a terrible night for everyone who voted against them.
It must be tough to go through life making millions and being that miserable.
The rest of the country suffered for the last 4 years with the effects of inflation on our less than millions a year paychecks.
Before I post the article, note the influence of the Joe Rogan podcast at the bottom. The almost bigger message here is that the mainstream media is dying as is their influence. I’m amazed that the liberals didn’t see this pattern occurring, but they’ve owned the mainstream media for so long that it’s hard to break the addiction and never saw it coming.
Also of note is how little people care about celebtards. Taylor Swift can sell out stadiums, but no one gives a shit about what she thinks past singing. It’s the same with the rest of the losers listed below.
There is a shift going on and it’s amazing that the 78 year old saw it and the “hip libsters” never saw it coming.
Here goes:
Despite Vice President Kamala Harris’s confidence in the Gen Z vote, it was former President Donald Trump who received a 5-6% upward swing with Gen Z voters in comparison to his support in 2016 with younger voters, according to Yahoo News and the New York Post.
Generation (Gen) Z refers to those born from 1997 to 2012, according to Britannica.
Harris’s team made many attempts through campaign marketing and public speeches to reach young voters as she teamed up with celebrity endorsers like singer Beyoncé, rapper Megan Thee Stallion, singer Taylor Swift, rapper Fat Joe, actress Jennifer Lopez, rapper Eminem, and even more. Yet, none of these endorsements prevailed in winning her the election.
The Harris campaign even created a custom Kamala Harris-themed map on the popular video game Fortnite, called “Freedomtown USA,” where gamers were able to build virtual houses and put up rally posters, in reference to Harris’s proposed $25,000 tax credit for first-time home buyers.
Despite Harris’s extensive outreach, President-elect Donald Trump also made his own attempts to reach young voters, appearing on the popular Joe Rogan Experience (JRE) podcast, which has racked up over 45 million views. Trump also appeared on a livestream with streaming giant Adin Ross, which is particularly persuasive to Gen Z male voters.
Special Counsel Jack Smith, overseeing two federal cases against former President Donald Trump, has considered a possible pathway to end the cases, according to two sources familiar with the matter who spoke to NBC News. This news from the MSM outlet comes hours after Trump won the US presidential election.
Here’s more from NBC News:
The latest discussions stand in contrast with the pre-election legal posture of Special Counsel Jack Smith, who in recent weeks took significant steps in the election interference case against Trump without regard to the electoral calendar.
But the sources say DOJ officials have come to grips with the fact that no trial is possible any time soon in either the January 6th case or the classified documents matter—both of which are mired in legal issues that would likely prompt an appeal all the way to the Supreme Court, even if Trump had lost the election.
Now that Trump will become president again, DOJ officials see no room to pursue either criminal case against him—and no point in continuing to litigate them in the weeks before he takes office, the people said.
The outlet continued:
The sources said it will be up to Smith to decide exactly how to unwind the charges, and many questions remain unanswered. Could the prosecutions resume after Trump leaves office or would they be time-barred? What happens to the evidence? What about the two other defendants charged with helping Trump hide classified documents? Will Smith write a report, as special counsels usually do?
The sources say all those issues require study and research.
At the same time, Trump’s legal team is weighing their own next steps for how to resolve the outstanding federal cases in the former president’s favor now that he is the projected winner of the election. The ultimate goal is to get all of the federal and state cases wiped out completely — the strategic call is how best to accomplish that task, according to a person familiar with the discussions.
Joe Rogan got 35 million views of his interview with Trump. The paradigm of media is changing and the old guard no longer controls the airwaves.
Kamala Harris is only the second-biggest loser of the night. Her media shills are nursing wounds that will take far longer to recover from.
In the early hours of Wednesday morning, legacy news networks were already sliding toward 2016 levels of melting down about the increasingly definite prospect of a presidential victory by Donald J. Trump. For them, Harris’ stinging defeat is personal — because it’s just as much a defeat for them as it is for her.
The corporate media industrial complex has spent Donald Trump’s entire political career trying to destroy him. Hand-in-hand with triple-letter government agencies and Democrats, they ran a hoax painting Trump as a Russian stooge based on ridiculous rumors commissioned by his opponent’s campaign in 2016. They continued to spread the lie for the duration of his presidency, awarding each other Pulitzers for it. And they’ve only ramped up their efforts since then.
The problem they’re reckoning with tonight is this: those efforts didn’t work. They’re no longer able to control Americans by controlling their information intake, because their credibility is farther deep-sixed than the Clinton family’s enemies list.
A TV executive anonymously fretted last week that “If half the country has decided that Trump is qualified to be president, that means they’re not reading any of this media, and we’ve lost this audience completely. A Trump victory means mainstream media is dead in its current form.”
In addition to historic success with black men and the Latino community, Trump also won white women despite non stop regime propaganda casting Trump as a “misogynist.”
It’s safe to say liberal women, on the other hand, are not handling Trump’s historic victory well. In fact, they’re losing their minds so spectacularly that they’re proving, once and for all, why they really shouldn’t be left unattended.
Don’t believe us? Well, we’ve gathered a treasure trove of unhinged meltdowns from Kamala’s female supporters, ranging from uncontrollable, toddler-like tantrums to hardcore HR “Karen” energy.
One woman was so enraged by her boyfriend’s vote for Trump that she somehow managed to mix toddler behavior with HR hysteria, creating one of the most over-the-top “breakup” moments we’ve ever seen.
Despite numerous examples of Democrat-involved political violence in Washington over the past decade—2017 Trump inaugural riots, 2018 Kavanaugh protests, 2020 BLM/antifa riots, post-election confrontations with Trump supporters during “Stop the Steal” events in November and December 2020, and recent incidents tied to pro-Hamas demonstrations—the media now claims Republicans, not Democrats, will start tearing down major cities including the nation’s capital if Trump does not win the election.
Police across the country reportedly also are bracing for post-election violence. Why? Politico reporter Betsy Woodruff Swan of course blames Trump. “[As] Trump once again promotes falsehoods about election fraud and denigrates election officials, law enforcement officers worry that the floodgates to violence are open,” Swan claims. Swan then used a few thousand more words to detail alleged threats to election workers and other incidents that solely targeted Democrats and Democratic jurisdictions in the post 2020-period.
So here is a little refresher about what went down following Trump’s shocking victory on November 8, 2016 when Democrats, NeverTrumpers, and the media exploded into a full-blown fit of rage:
The New York Timesdocumented days of protests spanning 52 cities following Trump’s election. Anti-Trump demonstrators blocked traffic in Miami, Portland, Las Vegas, and Madison, Wisconsin; protesters burned an American flag in front of the Georgia Capitol building.
Democrats in Los Angeles burned a pinata resembling the president-elect.
After three days of intense violence, Portland police declared a riot on November 10, 2016. Anti-Trump thugs attacked police, vandalized business, and set buildings on fire. The following day, the Portland police department announced the use of “pepper spray, rubber ball distraction devices, [and] rubber baton rounds” to halt the rioting.
More than 7,000 protesters took to the streets of Oakland, California on November 9. A local Oakland newspaper described the chaos: “Protesters hurled Molotov cocktails, rocks and fireworks at police. Some protesters set off fireworks. Others burned a Trump effigy, and someone set a pile of cardboard on fire in the middle of a downtown intersection. A group of protesters wearing clown and Guy Fawkes masks used bricks, their feet and a large stick to smash the glass windows of the Oakland Coin and Jewelry Exchange at 1725 Broadway. Other storefronts on that block were covered in graffiti as well. Multiple trash and cardboard fires were started in the middle of the street and a much larger fire was raging at the intersection of 17th Street and Broadway.” At least three Oakland police officers were injured that night.
Confrontations with police in Omaha, Nebraska resulted in the deployment of mob control munitions on November 10, 2016; at least two people were arrested for obstructing justice.
Protesters began shouting “kill the police” during an anti-Trump demonstration in Indianapolis on November 12, 2016. Some protesters threw rocks at police; at least seven protesters were arrested and two officers received minor injuries.
Oh, look. Auodia said the International Olympic Committee received the medical report in May 2023.
Gee, what a shock (emphasis mine):
The report was drafted in June of 2023 via a collaboration between the Kremlin-Bicêtre hospital in Paris, France, and the Mohamed Lamine Debaghine hospital in Algiers, Algeria. Drafted by expert endocrinologists Soumaya Fedala and Jacques Young, the report reveals that Khelif is impacted by 5-alpha reductase deficiency, a disorder of sexual development that is only found in biological males.
The genetic abnormality influences the normal development of a child’s sexual organs. At birth, male babies impacted by 5-alpha are often incorrectly assigned female due to the presence of deformed genitalia that sometimes takes on the appearance of a “blind vaginal pouch.”
This disordered development typically becomes apparent by puberty, when 5-alpha adolescents begin to experience signs of masculinization such as muscle growth, hair growth, and an absence of breast tissue development or menstruation. Without access to a proper clinical examination, males with 5-alpha may incorrectly believe they are female into adulthood.
Auodia reported that the pelvic MRI revealed no uterus or ovaries. Instead, Khelif has (emphasis from the author) “‘gonads in the inguinal canals‘ (testicles in her abdomen, editor’s note), ‘a blind vagina‘ and a micro-penis in the form of ‘clitoral hypertrophy.’”
Gov. Kathy Hochul on Saturday called New Yorkers who vote for Republican House candidates “anti-American” and “anti-women” — a smear that sparked furor across the Empire State and beyond.
“If you’re voting for these Republicans in New York, you are voting for someone who supports Donald Trump and you’re anti-women, you’re anti-abortion and basically you’re anti-American,” Hochul said on MSNBC.
“You just trashed American values and what our country is all about — over and over.”
But Republicans said it was Hochul doing the trashing — and even Democratic strategists said demonizing a large segment of voters as anti-American was not helpful to their candidates.
“This is about as helpful as a severe migraine. It’s never a good thing to identify a large segment of voters as un-American,” said ex-Democratic Rep. Max Rose, who is aiding Democrats in House races.
“Kathy Hochul doesn’t represent a majority of Democrats — anywhere,” said Rose, who served one-term representing Staten Island and parts of southern Brooklyn.
State Republican Party chairman Ed Cox fumed, “She’s smearing at least one half of American voters and all Trump voters.”
Rep. Mike Lawler (R-Hudson Valley) told The Post, “Governor Hochul has once again disgraced herself and the state of New York by calling supporters
Just like all the celebtards are going to move out of the country if he wins. It will never happen. It’s a cry for attention by a weak minded person.
A progressive commentator has suggested she will take her own life by ingesting cyanide live on air if Donald Trump prevails in tomorrow’s presidential election.
Francesca Fiorentini, a left-wing commentator who hosts The Bitchuation podcast, was asked by The Sun’s chief political writer, Harry Cole, how she would react if Trump secures an extraordinary return to the White House.
“I’ll drink cyanide on air and podcast into the night,” she remarked before going on to admit that she will keep fighting for the right to abortion.
Although Fiorentini was almost certainly joking, her comments underline the growing expectation that a Trump victory could trigger a major mental health crisis among vast swathes of liberal America.
While nobody knows what will happen in the next 48 hours, the only thing we know for sure is that half of America is going to be incredibly unhappy.
And if that side happens to be the Democratic Party, prepare for meltdowns on a scale beyond your wildest imagination.
Instances of censorship are growing to the point of normalization. Despite ongoing litigation and more public attention, mainstream social media has been more ferocious in recent months than ever before. Podcasters know for sure what will be instantly deleted and debate among themselves over content in gray areas. Some like Brownstone have given up on YouTube in favor of Rumble, sacrificing vast audiences if only to see their content survive to see the light of day.
It’s not always about being censored or not. Today’s algorithms include a range of tools that affect searchability and findability. For example, the Joe Rogan interview with Donald Trump racked up an astonishing 34 million views before YouTube and Google tweaked their search engines to make it hard to discover, while even presiding over a technical malfunction that disabled viewing for many people. Faced with this, Rogan went to the platform X to post all three hours.
Navigating this thicket of censorship and quasi-censorship has become part of the business model of alternative media.
Those are just the headline cases. Beneath the headlines, there are technical events taking place that are fundamentally affecting the ability of any historian even to look back and tell what is happening. Incredibly, the service Archive.org which has been around since 1994 has stopped taking images of content on all platforms. For the first time in 30 years, we have gone a long swath of time – since October 8-10 – since this service has chronicled the life of the Internet in real time.
As of this writing, we have no way to verify content that has been posted for three weeks of October leading to the days of the most contentious and consequential election of our lifetimes. Crucially, this is not about partisanship or ideological discrimination. No websites on the Internet are being archived in ways that are available to users. In effect, the whole memory of our main information system is just a big black hole right now.
More Woke and DEI failure. How many planes are suspect though because of this going on for the last few years. It’s not like you can pull over on the side of the road. It’s why I don’t want to get on another Boeing plane.
Top airline manufacturer Boeing dissolved its global diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) division amid significant financial losses, union strikes and scrutiny over safety and production issues, Bloomberg reported Thursday.
The reorganization, which reassigned its DEI staff to Boeing’s employee experience division, reflects CEO Kelly Ortberg’s focus on consolidating operations as the company grapples with a number of problems, according to Bloomberg.
Sara Liang Bowen, who previously helmed Boeing’s DEI department, announced her departure on Thursday, Bloomberg reported. In a LinkedIn post, Bowen expressed pride in her team’s work, acknowledging both its challenges and accomplishments.
“The team achieved so much — sometimes imperfectly, never easily — and dreamed of doing much more still,” Bowen wrote in a farewell post on LinkedIn.
Critics argue such policies encourage discrimination by favoring certain demographics, and this scrutiny is part of a larger trend, with activists targeting corporations and calling for a shift away from DEI priorities, the outlet stated.
They toss the homosexuals off buildings still. She’s a goner.
The Lingerie Revolution
After she had been mistreated by police for not wearing her veil properly, a young Iranian woman protested by stripping down to her small clothes and walking around in public. She was immediately apprehended by the morality police and hauled off to durance vile.
And in Iran, the durance is guaranteed to be horrifically vile, especially for women. This particular young lady has proved that she is “uncovered meat”, so whether she is consigned to a regular prison or a loony bin, she is certain to be subjected to the amorous attentions of sweaty bearded men in black turbans, over and over again. God help her.
Great, Just freaking great. Some of us made a huge effort to not get jabbed to avoid the mRNA poison and now they are putting it in our food.
The Biden-Harris administration has begun licensing the use of “DNA vaccines” in the United States food supply, according to reports.
The bombshell was revealed by Ohio attorney Tom Renz.
Renz exposed the Biden-Harris admin’s United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) for licensing the use of deadly DNA vaccines in food.
The USDA had previously given the green light for salmon to be vaccinated with the latest mRNA chemicals.
However, this latest scheme raises far greater concerns.
By licensing DNA vaccines, the USDA is allowing even more questionable pharmaceutical chemicals to be administered to animals that people consume as food.
Renz highlighted a video that shows how fish destined for the food supply are vaccinated.
I processed the relentless violence as some kind of possibility that I had missed something. I don’t anymore. Everybody who has failed to oppose this is complicit in mass murder. There are not “two sides.” Pfizer itself can explain exactly why all the people dropping dead have died, but they felt it should be hidden for 55 years, so they could continue to murder and maim without interference. The mass media is the engine of the catastrophe, the sine qua non.
Most smoking guns are not really smoking guns, but this one is.
A group called “Public Health and Medical Professionals For Transparency Documents” sued the FDA for the release of Pfizer’s documents concerning adverse events from their Covid “vaccine”, which Pfizer fought to have concealed 55 years, but a courageous judge ordered them released anyway.
They wrote on their website: ”Four days after the Pfizer vaccine was approved for ages 16+, we submitted a Freedom of Information Act Request to the FDA for all of the data within Pfizer’s COVID-19 vaccine biological product file. We have now sued the FDA for not releasing the data. Click below for court documents and for productions of Pfizer’s documents from the FDA.”
In the 90 days following EUA release of the “vaccine” they recorded 1223 deaths, and 158,000 adverse reactions, including fetal deaths, spontaneous abortions and more. They call this, in their encrypted, trans-human Pharma-lingo, the “post marketing experience.” [See link above]
Whose experience? Pfizer’s, or the dead?
I failed to catch on to this when it was released a few days ago, for which I apologize. Mark Crispin Miller sent it out today and I realized I’d missed something incredibly important. I opened the document and began to read, as my mind short-circuited. One thinks one has seen it all, but no.
I’d heard Alex Jones apoplectically reporting on it this week but for some reason, I still didn’t drop what I was doing and go to it. Mike Adams reported comprehensively on it here.
A total of 25 states have now joined the fight to preserve election integrity after the Biden-Harris administration filed a lawsuit to prevent states from removing non-citizen voters from their rolls.
Missouri Attorney General Andrew Bailey announced yesterday in a tweet on X that he had filed a brief to halt the administration’s efforts to stop states from removing voters whose U.S. citizenship cannot be proven.
Just two weeks ago, the Biden administration sued Virginia and Alabama for their efforts to purge “non-citizens” from their voting rolls, saying that the action violated the National Voter Registration Act Quiet Period Provision that requires states to curtail all such actions 90 days prior to an election.
The government’s legal complaint against Virginia states:
“Only U.S. citizens are eligible to vote in U.S. federal elections. That fact is not in dispute, and there is no evidence of widespread noncitizen voting in the United States. But that is not what this case is about.”
Democratic assurances that non-citizens cannot legally vote or even register to vote are not tempering growing concern over why the Biden-Harris administration seems intent on keeping ineligible voters, including those who are not citizens or the deceased, on the voting rolls.
The Washington Stand has reported that independent reviews of state voter rolls have confirmed tens of thousands of non-citizens have registered to vote and many of those individuals have admitted that they’ve illegally voted in U.S. elections.
There have also been increasing instances of illegals admitting that they have been encouraged to register to vote.
Because we don’t have secure borders, the biggest cause of death for a large swath of Americans is Fentanyl from China that gets processed in Mexico and comes across to the US.
It’s not so much the people flooding across the southern border affecting Arizonans, as what some of the illegal immigrants carry with them.
Illegal aliens don’t stay in the state, according to Pinal County, Arizona, Sheriff Mark Lamb. Instead, they travel to “California, Massachusetts, New York, Chicago, Iowa, Alabama,” he says, adding, “But what we are feeling is, just like every state and every American family, we’re feeling the effects of fentanyl.”
Fentanyl is now the leading cause of death for Americans between the ages of 18 and 45, according to the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration.
“I don’t want to take away from 9/11, but I want to put it into perspective,” Lamb says. “On 9/11 we lost, I think, about 3,600 American lives that day … and we went to war for 20 years for that.”
An estimated 74,702 people died from fentanyl poisoning in America in 2023, a slight decline from the 76,226 fentanyl-related deaths in 2022, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
“Right now, China is putting fentanyl in the hands of the [Mexican drug] cartels,” Lamb explained.
Many of the precursor chemicals used to make fentanyl originate in China. On Oct. 24, the Justice Department announced “charges against eight China-based companies and eight individuals we allege are responsible for trafficking precursor chemicals that cartels use to manufacture lethal fentanyl,” Attorney General Merrick Garland said in a statement.
The Chinese don’t have to shoot at us. They supply the drugs that are killing Americans from within. Don’t forget when you vote that Democrats are replacing Americans who won’t vote for them with illegals bringing this in.
“The most dangerous man to any government is the man who is able to think things out … without regard to the prevailing superstitions and taboos. Almost inevitably he comes to the conclusion that the government he lives under is dishonest, insane, intolerable.”
– H. L. Mencken
If the three-ring circus that is the looming presidential election proves anything, it is that the Deep State’s plot to destabilize the nation is working.
The danger is real.
Caught up in the heavily dramatized electoral showdown between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Americans have become oblivious to the multitude of ways in which the government is goosestepping all over our freedoms on a daily basis.
Especially alarming is the extent to which those on both sides are allowing themselves to be gaslighted by both Trump and Harris about critical issues of the day, selectively choosing to hear only what they want to hear when it casts the opposition in a negative light.
This is true whether you’re talking about immigration and border control, health care, national security, the nation’s endless wars, protections for free speech, or the militarization of the U.S. government.
For starters, there’s the free speech double standard, what my good friend Nat Hentoff used to refer to as the “free speech for me but not for thee” phenomenon in which the First Amendment’s protections only apply to those with whom we might agree.
Despite her claims to being a champion for the rule of law, which in our case is the U.S. Constitution, Harris isn’t averse to policing so-called “hate” speech. In this, Harris is not unlike those on both the Right and the Left who continue to express a distaste for unregulated, free speech online, especially when it comes to speech with which they might disagree.
Then there’s Trump, never a fan of free speech protections for his critics, who has been particularly vocal about his desire to see the military vanquish “radical left lunatics,” which he has dubbed “the enemy from within.”
If it were only about muzzling free speech activities, that would be concerning enough.
But Trump’s enthusiasm for using the military to target domestic enemies of the state should send off warning bells, especially coinciding as it does with the Department of Defense’s recent re-issuance of Directive 5240.01, which empowers the military to assist law enforcement “in situations where a confrontation between civilian law enforcement and civilian individuals or groups is reasonably anticipated.”
This is what martial law looks like—a government of force that relies on the military to enforce its authority—and it’s exactly what America’s founders feared, which is why they opted for a republic bound by the rule of law: the U.S. Constitution.
Responding to concerns that the military would be used for domestic policing, Congress passed the Posse Comitatus Act in 1878, which makes it a crime for the government to use the military to carry out arrests, searches, seizure of evidence and other activities normally handled by a civilian police force.
The increasing militarization of the police, the use of sophisticated weaponry against Americans and the government’s increasing tendency to employ military personnel domestically have all but eviscerated historic prohibitions such as the Posse Comitatus Act.
Yet sometime over the course of the past 240-plus years that constitutional republic has been transformed into a military dictatorship disguised as a democracy.
Unfortunately, most Americans seem relatively untroubled by the fact that our constitutional republic is being transformed into a military dictatorship disguised as a democracy.
The seeds of chaos that have been sown in recent years are all part of the Deep State’s plans to usher in martial law.
The propaganda campaign labeling Donald Trump as an aspiring dictator determined to use the military and national security apparatus against his political opponents is designed not to affect the upcoming election but rather to shape the post-election environment. It is the central piece of a narrative that, by characterizing Trump as a tyrant (indeed likening him to Hitler), establishes the conditions for violence — not just another attempt on Trump’s life, but political violence on a massive scale intended to destabilize the country.
As I write in my forthcoming book Disappearing the President, Democratic Party research and media reports show that many senior party officials and operatives are preparing for the possibility of a Trump victory. Accordingly, planning is focused on undermining the incoming president with enough violence to rock his administration. Prominent post-election scenarios forecast such widespread rioting that the newly elected president would be compelled to invoke the Insurrection Act. With some senior military officials refusing to follow Trump’s orders, according to the scenarios, the U.S. Armed Forces would split, leaving America on the edge of the abyss.
By vilifying Trump as a despotic madman who must be stopped before he can commence his reign of terror, the regime’s propaganda apparatus not only slanders Trump but also pre-emptively threatens the reputation, as well as the livelihood and perhaps the liberty, of current military personnel. The point is to push the military against Trump: When the time comes to act, will you stand for democracy or side with a tyrant who sees the military only as an instrument to advance his personal interests?
For instance, last week the Atlantic’s editor-in-chief, Jeffrey Goldberg, quoted former Trump administration officials claiming that the Republican candidate is contemptuous of America’s armed forces and, according to Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, wishes he could command the same respect that Hitler commanded from his general officers.
This is not the first time that Trump has been compared to Hitler or that Kelly, a retired Marine general, turned on his former commander-in-chief. Kelly was the key source for a story published before the 2020 election, also in the Atlantic and also by Jeffrey Goldberg, that alleged Trump had called American WWII soldiers buried in French cemeteries “suckers and losers.”
The veracity of Kelly’s latest revelation that Trump admires Hitler must of course be judged against the fact that he waited five years to disclose it, even if it is unlikely to have much effect on the current election cycle. The military, and veterans of the Global War on Terror in particular, overwhelmingly support the candidate opposed to waging endless and strategically pointless foreign wars. Moreover, Trump has weathered far more damaging fabrications — like the false allegations that he had been compromised by Russian intelligence — that only galvanized support for him.
The purpose of the Hitler narrative is not to alter the electoral preferences of left-wing media audiences already solidly in the anti-Trump column, but rather to justify taking extreme measures against the Republican candidate and the America First movement and ensure that the bulk of the military sides with the anti-Trump plot. Thus, it is best understood in the context of recent accounts promising, or urging, violence after the November vote.
For example, last week the New York Times published a long interview with a scholar of fascism who declared that Trump is a fascist. The paper of record followed up with another long article by two Harvard professors calling for mass mobilization in the event of a Trump victory. The proposal suggests that private industry join civil society organizations to ostracize Trump and his supporters and engage in large public protests to provoke a crisis. Kamala Harris herself, commenting on Kelly’s allegations in the Atlantic story, claimed that her opponent “is a fascist” during a CNN town hall.
These stories are only the latest in an ongoing series of media reports warning of a Trump dictatorship. Beltway insider Robert Kagan was out of the gate early, writing even before Trump wrapped up the nomination that, without mounting resistance against the Republican candidate, America is “a few short steps, and a matter of months, away from the possibility of dictatorship.” A January story from NBC claimed that Trump was exploring ways to use the military to assassinate political rivals.
The propaganda meant to establish a predicate to employ violence to stop Trump has been reinforced at the highest levels of the Democratic Party.
When Joe Biden was asked by a reporter if he was confident that there would be a peaceful transfer of power after the 2024 election, he answered, “If Trump wins, no I’m not confident at all.” Then, seemingly correcting himself, the president said, “I mean if Trump loses, I’m not confident at all. He means what he says, we don’t take him seriously. He means it, all the stuff about, ‘If we lose there will be a bloodbath.’”
Biden was referring to a comment Trump made in March about Chinese efforts to build auto manufacturing plants in Mexico. The export of those cars to America, Trump said, would result in a “bloodbath” for the U.S. auto industry. Naturally, the Biden campaign used the figure of speech to accuse Trump of inciting “political violence.”
Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) advertised a more specific scenario leading to violence when he promised that Congress will remove Trump by invoking Section 3 of the Fourteenth Amendment, which prohibits anyone “engaged in insurrection or rebellion” from holding federal office. “It’s going to be up to us on January 6, 2025, to tell the rampaging Trump mobs that he’s disqualified,” Raskin has said. “And then we need bodyguards for everybody in civil war conditions.”
But the most significant post-election scenarios were drafted by Rosa Brooks, a former Obama Pentagon official whose 2020 wargaming with the Transition Integrity Project (TIP) has been credited by the left-wing press for its “accuracy.”
Ahead of the last election, Brooks and TIP, according to the Guardian, “imagined the then far-fetched idea that Trump might refuse to concede defeat, and, by claiming widespread fraud in mail-in ballots, unleash dark forces culminating in violence. Every implausible detail of the simulations came to pass in the lead-up to the U.S. Capitol attack on 6 January 2021.”
That’s a fanciful way of obscuring the truth. TIP anticipated that Trump would contest the results because party operatives knew beforehand that election irregularities resulting from new voting procedures, like mass mail-in voting, designed to facilitate fraud would be glaringly obvious. Thus, because of Brooks’s past performance and her central role in a network comprising the media and current and former defense officials, her work is widely acknowledged as the Left’s roadmap for post-election contingency planning.
The left always claims the conservatives will do what they already are doing. Who had the riots in 2017? Who wore the stupid ass pink pussy caps? Who started, then blew the January 6 out of proportion (the FBI, or the left, they are the same).
Here are 10 fundamental questions that climate alarmists never answer.
➊ You claim that the Earth is overheating. That it’s “too hot.” So, what is the correct global mean surface temperature (GMST) for life on Earth and why?
Please provide a numerical answer. Use units and round it to the nearest tenth of a degree Celsius. Then, explain why that value is ideal and cite evidence to justify your answer.
➋ What is the correct atmospheric CO₂ level for life on Earth?
What is best to optimize our agricultural productivity?
What CO₂ level will make da weatha less scary?
Give your answer as an exact value as a mole fraction or volume percentage, and then explain why that value is ideal.
➌ What exactly makes CO₂ “pollution”?
The EPA considers CO₂ to be a pollutant, legally speaking, under the Clean Air Act, and their scientific justification is simply that, it “…𝑐𝑜𝑛𝑡𝑟𝑖𝑏𝑢𝑡𝑒𝑠 𝑡𝑜 𝑔𝑟𝑒𝑒𝑛ℎ𝑜𝑢𝑠𝑒 𝑔𝑎𝑠 𝑝𝑜𝑙𝑙𝑢𝑡𝑖𝑜𝑛 𝑡ℎ𝑎𝑡 𝑡ℎ𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑡𝑒𝑛𝑠 𝑝𝑢𝑏𝑙𝑖𝑐 ℎ𝑒𝑎𝑙𝑡ℎ 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝑤𝑒𝑙𝑓𝑎𝑟𝑒.”
Because by that measure, water vapor should also be classified as a “pollutant” because it’s also a “greenhouse gas” (GHG) — it’s also the most abundant and potent GHG; it absorbs a wider spectrum of IR wavelengths than CO₂.
So, what actually makes CO₂ pollution?
➍ Why are temperature departures from 1850-1900 climate conditions deemed as the human welfare control knob given that the overall human condition has never been better than it is today? How is was climate during the end of the Little Ice Age — the coldest period in the last 10,000-years — preferable to today’s? On what account was the weather more benign? By what measure? Be specific. Tell me how the climate was supposedly less dangerous in the 17-19th centuries.
➎ The Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) that President Biden signed into law in 2022 was popularized as the “biggest climate bill in history,” but ever since the bill was signed, climate alarmists insist climate change has only gotten worse.
➏ If we spend $75 trillion to decarbonize the economy by 2050, by how much will it reduce the GMST by the end of the century? Please provide your answer to the nearest tenth of a degree Celsius and show your calculations.
What does the perfect climate look like? How will we know when we get there? By what measure?
➐ The estimated cost of net zero by the year 2050 in the U.S. is $75 trillion ($3 trillion per year), according to Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen.
That’s a hefty price tag.
And with ~260 million adult taxpayers, it would cost each of us $288,461.54 to get to “net zero emissions” by the target date. That’s 3-6-years’ worth of peoples’ salaries.
Are you willing to shell out that money, or do you just expect that everyone else will foot the bill for you?
Secondly, if you don’t know the answer to question six, then are we supposed to just spend that $75 trillion and see what happens?
➑ If “combating climate change” is a global concerted effort, why do China and India get a free pass to continue emitting carbon dioxide without bound?
➒ Why are you so vehemently opposed to the deployment of nuclear power? It is the safest, most sustainable “carbon-free” energy technology and without the compliance regulations, isn’t expensive when compared to solar PV and wind, which are inefficient, intermittent, costly add-ons to existing electricity generation sources.
➓ If humans are a parasite to the Earth since we are destroying it, why then are you worried that climate change could wipe us all out? Wouldn’t that be better for Earth? Why don’t you be the change you want to see and “net zero” yourself?
Publisher and columnist Adam Kelly is in the West Virginia journalism hall of fame despite being the most conservative man I ever met. He asked me once if I knew what the purpose of a newspaper is.
His answer: To make money for its owner.
What was true in 1982 is true today. The Pulitzer-laden staffs of the Los Angeles Times and the Washington Post discovered this over the weekend when their owners vetoed endorsements of her majesty, Queen Kamala.Likewise, the Hill reported, “Over 200 American outlets under USA Today parent company Gannett will not back candidates in presidential or national races,” according to USA Today.”
This sudden attempt to restore their virginity by newspapers may be because of the dumb-as-the-B-in-dumb Democrat candidate. But it could be the fact that all these rags have failed Newspaper Rule No. 1, which is to make money for the owner.
I hope that the latter is true because that gives me hope that the problem can be fixed. AM radio was once hopelessly obsolete until Rush Limbaugh revived it as a source of clean information untainted by liberalism.
Jeff Bezos lost $77 million last year as the owner of the Post. He decided to reintroduce objective journalism to the paper on the Potomac that flushed its reputation down the Porta-Potty long ago. He decided to return to the pre-Watergate era when the Post did not endorse in presidential races.
The press coverage of this decision is as expected.
Good riddance. They were the poison on both social media and at their schools.
Elon Musk’s takeover of Twitter, or X as it’s now called, has brought an abrupt shift in the dynamics of the platform. For years, X functioned as an echo chamber where progressive academics freely exchanged ideas, often without much opposition. It was an exclusive club, and Musk’s open-door policy shattered it. With censorship dialed back and banned accounts reinstated, Musk’s version of free speech drove many academics away, leading to a marked decrease in engagement among their ranks.
This article addresses a narrower empirical question: What did Elon Musk’s takeover of the platform mean for this academic ecosystem? Using a snowball sample of more than 15,700 academic accounts from the fields of economics, political science, sociology, and psychology, we show that academics in these fields reduced their “engagement” with the platform, measured by either the number of active accounts (i.e., those registering any behavior on a given day) or the number of tweets written (including original tweets, replies, retweets, and quote tweets). We further tested whether this decrease in engagement differed by account type; we found that verified users were significantly more likely to reduce their production of content (i.e., writing new tweets and quoting others’ tweets) but not their engagement with the platform writ large (i.e., retweeting and replying to others’ content).
The data points to a familiar pattern: when left-leaning narratives lose control of the conversation, proponents either cry foul or flee. Now, if you combine this exodus with the insights from Mitchell Langbert’s 2018 study on the political affiliations of elite liberal arts college faculty, the story becomes even clearer.
Langbert’s study from 2018, Homogenous: The Political Affiliations of Elite Liberal Arts College Faculty, reveals a staggering imbalance: liberal arts faculties are overwhelmingly Democratic, with many departments having zero registered Republicans. Across 51 colleges, the average Democratic-to-Republican ratio was 10.4:1. Excluding the two military colleges in the sample (West Point and Annapolis), the ratio jumped to 12.7:1. In the most ideologically driven fields, like gender and peace studies, there were no Republicans to be found.
Why Political Homogeneity Is Troubling
Political homogeneity is problematic because it biases research and teaching and reduces academic credibility. In a recent book on social psychology, The Politics of Social Psychology edited by Jarret T. Crawford and Lee Jussim, Mark J. Brandt and Anna Katarina Spälti, show that because of left-wing bias, psychologists are far more likely to study the character and evolution of individuals on the Right than individuals on the Left.2 Inevitably affecting the quality of this research, though, George Yancey found that sociologists prefer not to work with fundamentalists, evangelicals, National Rifle Association members, and Republicans.3 Even though more Americans are conservative than liberal, academic psychologists’ biases cause them to believe that conservatism is deviant. In the study of gender, Charlotta Stern finds that the ideological presumptions in sociology prevent any but the no-differences-between-genders assumptions of left-leaning sociologists from making serious research inroads. So pervasive is the lack of balance in academia that more than 1,000 professors and graduate students have started Heterodox Academy, an organization committed to increasing “viewpoint diversity” in higher education.4 The end result is that objective science becomes problematic, and where research is problematic, teaching is more so.
To the surprise of no one, the recently released House Energy and Commerce report on the approximately one billion dollar “indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity” (IDIQ) federal contract awarded by the Biden/Harris Administration’s Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) to the “Beltway Bandit” Fors Marsh Group (FMG) has received approximately no coverage by corporate media – and hardly on social media, for that matter. The notable exception being the New York Post.
The report documents that what Fors Marsh Group delivered to HHS for the 991M $ in taxpayer dollars it received was to deploy a massive Psychological Warfare campaign on American Citizens, one which employed a wide range of proven disinformation. Disinformation as defined by spreading falsehoods for political purposes. Those following along closely will recall that the Mayorkas Department of Homeland Security defined the spreading of disinformation during the COVID crisis as domestic terrorism.
FDA’s war on public health is about to end. This includes its aggressive suppression of psychedelics, peptides, stem cells, raw milk, hyperbaric therapies, chelating compounds, ivermectin, hydroxychloroquine, vitamins, clean foods, sunshine, exercise, nutraceuticals and anything…
All we needed was the HCQ and Ivermectin and the Covid Jab would have never been necessary. Oh, and Covid wouldn’t have been a problem either, or masks, or lockdowns.
The Democrats, at this late hour, are still working to find a message that works with reluctant male voters, particularly younger ones and minorities.
Michelle Obama apparently thinks she’s found it: She’s going to tell them that Donald Trump presents some sort of amorphous, unsaid threat to women’s lives, and those “lives are worth more than [your] anger and disappointment.”
You may perhaps see why the Democrats are having trouble getting traction with this message.
Apparently unsatisfied to just send her husband out to lecture “the brothers” earlier this month, the Democrats sent Michelle once more into the breach, this time in Kalamazoo, Michigan, where she was introducing Vice President Kamala Harris on Saturday.
The left has weaponized nearly every sacred institution we hold dear: education, the justice system, and worst of all, medicine. What’s truly terrifying is that their obsession with political ideology has trumped truth, facts, and even the well-being of the people. We saw this horrifying shift unfold during COVID, where so-called “medical experts” traded their credibility for political loyalty. They abandoned their profession, not to help Americans but to push a left-wing agenda. And now it’s happening again with the dangerous trans agenda targeting vulnerable teens. A new study exposes the lie at the heart of the entire trans movement, but what’s even more alarming is that the experts know it—and they’re hiding it to keep the gravy train rolling.
An influential doctor and advocate of adolescent gender treatments said she had not published a long-awaited study of puberty-blocking drugs because of the charged American political environment.
The doctor, Johanna Olson-Kennedy, began the study in 2015 as part of a broader, multimillion-dollar federal project on transgender youth. She and colleagues recruited 95 children from across the country and gave them puberty blockers, which stave off the permanent physical changes — like breasts or a deepening voice — that could exacerbate their gender distress, known as dysphoria.
The researchers followed the children for two years to see if the treatments improved their mental health. An older Dutch study had found that puberty blockers improved well-being, results that inspired clinics around the world to regularly prescribe the medications as part of what is now called gender-affirming care.
But the American trial did not find a similar trend, Dr. Olson-Kennedy said in a wide-ranging interview. Puberty blockers did not lead to mental health improvements, she said, most likely because the children were already doing well when the study began.
“They’re in really good shape when they come in, and they’re in really good shape after two years,” said Dr. Olson-Kennedy, who runs the country’s largest youth gender clinic at the Children’s Hospital of Los Angeles.
this data won’t be released because “the findings might fuel the kind of political attacks that have led to bans of the youth gender treatments in more than 20 states, one of which will soon be considered by the Supreme Court,” writes New York Times reporter Azeen Ghorayshi, summarizing Olson-Kennedy’s reasoning.
In other words, when it comes to how to medically treat children suffering from gender dysphoria, it’s not about the science. It’s about the ideology—and ensuring that ideology triumphs in American law and all states.
The only problem with these kids is growing up and having adults ruining that for them. Something goes wrong and the tranny supporters tell them that this will fix everything.
Woke ruins everything it touches, but for these kids their lives are ruined for life
Megyn Kelly Sums it up:
Pay attention, because I’m about to give you a truth bomb. Kids who are suffering from bullying or who have been sexually assaulted, or who are going through normal puberty and feel uncomfortable in their bodies will say to their parents, ‘I’m not sure, maybe I’m gender confused.’
[The parents] will send them to a psychiatrist or psychologist who are told by our organizations, the American Psychiatry Association and all the others that run their licensing, ‘You must affirm.’ Affirm[ation] is our only standard.
And so the child gets told, ‘You’re right. You are secretly a boy.’ Or vice versa. And the child gets put on puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones which sterilize the child and deprive the child of any chance of sexual pleasure for the rest of his or her life. We’re talking about 9, 10, 11-year-olds who cannot give informed consent. Then they have body parts chopped off by a medical establishment and by parents who mean well, but believe in these doctors and they shouldn’t.
And when they inevitably get past the awkwardness of puberty or what have you and they want to turn around and detransition, those who love bombed them on Reddit saying, ‘Come on in, the water’s fine,’ abandon them. They are depressed. They have changed their bodies forever in a way that is irreversible. And we are all sitting back saying, ‘It’s a remote issue,’ as Kamala Harris said. It’s not remote. It’s the issue of our time with respect to children and women’s rights.”
This is beyond ridiculous for stupidity on many levels. Besides the fact that it’s a tax based on a climate lie, it adds to the tax base of a group of socialists who pay one of the highest tax rates in the free world.
Of course, they tell you that education and medical care are free, but they just pay upfront, out of their paychecks. Nothing is free. Also, the medical care sucks. My wife’s relatives live there and I hear the stories directly from them about waiting six weeks for crummy care. It’s a schadenboner for me when I hear about Denmark doing another brainless move like this.
Here we go:
Dairy farmers in Denmark have to pay the world’s first carbon tax on their livestock, all in the name of a climate crisis that does not exist.
The country’s coalition government agreed this week to introduce the world’s first carbon emissions tax on agriculture. It will mean new levies on livestock starting in 2030.
Denmark is a major dairy and pork exporter, and agriculture is the country’s biggest source of emissions. The coalition agreement — which also entails investing 40 billion krone ($3.7 billion) in measures such as reforestation and establishing wetlands — is aimed at helping the country meet its climate goals.
“With today’s agreement, we are investing billions in the biggest transformation of the Danish landscape in recent times,” Foreign Minister Lars Lokke Rasmussen said in a statement Tuesday. “At the same time, we will be the first country in the world with a (carbon) tax on agriculture.”
Estimated cost per cow: 672 kroner ($96) annually, based on average emissions of 5.6 tons of CO2 equivalent per cow.
Implementation date: 2030
Initial tax rate: 300 kroner ($43) per ton of CO2 equivalent
Tax rate by 2035: 750 kroner ($108) per ton of CO2 equivalent
Effective tax after 60% tax break: 120 kroner ($17) per ton in 2030, rising to 300 kroner ($43) by 2035
Dairy is one of their country’s largest industries and they are going to help make it more expensive, thus killing the golden goose.
Her relatives love to think how smart they are and tell me how bad the USA is. It’s gems like this that let me chuckle at the chuckleheads. That they both buy the climate lies and self-penalize their economy tells me who’s not really that smart. I don’t even have to say anything when stuff like this comes out.
It was only days ago that twice-failed White House wannabe Hillary Clinton was discussing how Democrats must control the information Americans have, through the press and social media.
Now one of her compatriots-in-arms in the agenda to make America over into the “just and equal society” they want has confirmed that agenda, with actions that including her ownership of The Atlantic, a far-left publication that repeatedly has done hit pieces on President Donald Trump, and her expressed interest in ownership of the New York Times: “Is it for sale?”
That person is Laurene Powell Jobs, widow of Apple co-founder Steve Jobs and the inheritor of his billions.
The sister of slain soldier Vanessa Guillén slammed The Atlantic after it used anonymous sources to allege that President Donald Trump disparaged her after discovering the funeral expenses.
Guillén’s death at the hands of a fellow soldier and his girlfriend became national news in 2020, with Trump comforting the grief-stricken family and extending death benefits. He also offered to cover the costs personally if the Army did not pay for the funeral expenses.
The Atlantic’s Jeffrey Goldberg, however, attempted to rewrite history on Tuesday, claiming that Trump was outraged when he learned that Guillén’s funeral, which included heightened security and closed streets, cost $60,000.
According to the magazine—relying on an anonymous source—Trump allegedly said, “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” and ordered then-White House Chief of Staff Mark Meadows to deny payment.
Guillén’s sister, Mayra, issued a viral statement on X, condemning The Atlantic’s distorted portrayal of her experience with Trump.
“I don’t appreciate how you are exploiting my sister’s death for politics- hurtful & disrespectful to the important changes she made for service members,” Mayra wrote on X, garnering over 3 million views.
“President Donald Trump did nothing but show respect to my family & Vanessa. In fact, I voted for President Trump today,” Mayra added.
Hollywood celebrities were instrumental in weaponizing the #MeToo movement against conservatives. Who can forget Alyssa Milano sitting in judgement of Brett Kavanaugh? Or The View hosts providing an endless platform for E. Jean Carroll to assail former President Donald Trump? But when it comes to fellow Democrats, the stars are fond of looking the other way — think: Bill Clinton, Joe Biden, and Andrew Cuomo.
We can now add Doug Emhoff, Kamala Harris’ husband, to that dishonorable list. Despite credible accusations that he physically assaulted an ex girlfriend, Hollywood celebrities are still lining up behind him, including most recently ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel, actor Ben Stiller, and Bravo’s talk-show host Andy Cohen.
“Believe all women” died a long time ago. Doug Emhoff is now disposing of the body in the woods. Below are the celebrity feminists who’ve backed Harris but remain silent on the Emhoff abuse accusations
These losers have no reason to tell anyone how to think. They pretend for a living. They are a walking liars just for what they do.
The Harris campaign is jealous of President Trump’s endorsements.
Elon Musk and RFK Jr. have endorsed President Trump.
Meanwhile, warmongers and RINO losers like Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney have endorsed Kamala Harris.
Tim Walz attacked Elon Musk and called the billionaire SpaceX entrepreneur a “dipshit.”
“Elon’s on that stage, jumping around, skipping like a dipshit,” Tim Walz said.
What a moron. As much fag friendly stuff as he supports, he’s still in the closet. Even if he’s not, in baseball talk he’s still a cock sucker
WATCH:
POT, MEET KETTLE: Tampon Tim Walz — known as the “Dancing Queen” for his bizarre, wild gesticulations in public — is now smearing @elonmusk for “skipping like a dipshit” at President Trump’s rally.
Rep. Troy Nehls of Texas is a former sheriff, Army National Guard Major, and the recipient of 2 bronze stars. Nehls vocally criticized Nancy Pelosi, the J6 Committee, and Capitol Police leadership for their handling of January 6. Soon after, under Nancy Pelosi’s authority, on November 20, 2021, Capitol Police illegally entered his office and photographed confidential legislative materials. Two days later, while Congress was in recess and Nehls’ office was supposedly vacant, they returned dressed as construction workers; however, they were caught by Nehl’s staffer who chose to work through the holiday weekend. Congressman Nehls believes this was an attempt to blackmail him into silence on J6.
Instead of standing down, Rep. Nehls doubled down. On September 24, he hosted a congressional screening of the film The War On Truth. Nick Searcy and I made The War On Truth as a follow-up to our 2021 film Capitol Punishment: Everything They Told You Is A Lie. I didn’t win a Best Director Oscar for that film, but I did get investigated by the FBI. That was part of the reason why we decided to make The War On Truth.
The screening was an emotional and informative event that left the audience stunned.
They are homogenous. It’s a bunch of liberals indoctrinating students to hate America and turn against it. What about learning? The Test of a First-Rate Intelligence Is the Ability To Hold Two Opposed Ideas in the Mind at the Same Time. There is only one way in colleges now, the liberal view.
Honestly, this number seems a little high, given all we know about the political culture of higher education.
Professors will overwhelmingly vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in the coming weeks, according to a new survey.
Inside Higher Ed surveyed more than 1,000 professors, mostly “tenured or tenure track,” and found significant support for the Democratic presidential ticket.
“Seventy-eight percent support Kamala Harris and running mate Tim Walz, while only 8 percent of the respondents back Donald Trump and JD Vance, according to the survey, which has a 2.9 percent margin of error,” the publication reported.
“But while their personal support for Democrats was overwhelming, almost no respondents said they plan to tell students which party or candidate to vote for,” Inside Higher Ed reported.
Most respondents said they keep their personal political beliefs out of the classroom. Only four percent said they would tell students who to vote for, but 30 percent plan to “discuss the election” in class.
A major peer-reviewed study has revealed that people who received Covid mRNA “vaccines” have significantly reduced their life expectancy.
The explosive study was conducted by a team of leading Italian researchers led by Professor Marco Alessandria of the University of Turin.
The bombshell findings of Prof. Alessandria and his team were published in the renowned Swiss medical journal MDPI.
The study has sent shockwaves through the scientific community and further confirmed warnings from leading experts about the long-term impact of the Covid mRNA injections.
The researchers found that the Covid-vaxxed suffered a “statistically significant” loss of life expectancy after two or more doses.
Following a detailed analysis of the study, the McCullough Foundation confirms that those who received two doses of the shots have lost 37% of their life expectancy.
The Foundation, founded by eminent American cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough, reported:
“The subjects vaccinated with two doses lost 37% of life expectancy compared to the unvaccinated population during the follow-up considered.”
Further, the study found so-called “booster” shots are completely “ineffective.”
Choose what you want to believe about it, but the facts are starting to favor the conspiracy theorists who say it’s poison. It’s also a test run of whether the masses will obey a made-up crisis, for next time.
The facts were there all along. When they made people take it to keep their jobs, and said it was safe and effective (if you like your policy, you can keep your policy, or I did not have sexual relations with that woman) you should believe the opposite.
They literally murdered people, like the governments of Germany, the Soviet Union, China, Cambodia, North Korea, and Vietnam.
Every year feminist activists attempt to stir up a new controversy in order to fabricate public outrage and keep their agenda visible on social media. In 2024 one such controversy was the supposed pay disparity (which they call the “gender pay gap”) between women’s professional basketball and men’s professional basketball.
The notion of the gender pay gap has been thoroughly debunked in the western world. The original theory was rooted solely on the average pay accrued by all men vs all women and was a statistical misrepresentation of reality. When those numbers are broken down, the fact is that men work longer hours, they work more difficult jobs, more skilled jobs, they take less vacation time and they don’t have babies so they don’t need paternity leave. All of these factors and more add up to a higher average salary for men vs women.
It has everything to do with women’s choices and nothing to do with some nefarious patriarchal conspiracy to hold them back from success.
Because the overall gender pay gap argument has been destroyed and is no longer taken seriously, feminists then tried to search for specific examples of pay disparity in gender segregated professions. Professional sports is one of the few venues in which feminists could present a male vs female one-to-one comparison and say there is a distinct lack of fairness. Except, that argument assumes that male athletes and female athletes perform at the same level. The fact is, they do not.
Women’s game performance and abilities are far behind those of their professional male counterparts. They are two separate universes in terms of entertainment. This is an issue which no one in the mainstream wants to address – The women’s games are mostly terrible to watch.
If it wasn’t for Caitlin Clark, no one would have watched. They only showed up for her games and only tuned in to her team. Even then you can’t watch a whole game because they play Jr. High School Basketball, only not that good.
Bill Burr is freaking hilarious, but says what needs to be said here, it’s worth the listen
This is not only an Election lie, it purposely screws the people suffering in Appalachia. There is plenty of money for Haitians and Lebanon, just not people that might vote Republican.
It was reported by CBS News tonight that the Small Business Administration, which works hand in hand with FEMA, has officially run out of disaster aid for small businesses. And, of course, they are blaming Congress.

Back in 2022, I reported that Toyota Motor chief Akio Toyoda remains skeptical of moving to only producing electric vehicles (EVs). Toyoda also indicated that most people who work in the auto industry agree with him.
“People involved in the auto industry are largely a silent majority,” Toyoda said. “That silent majority is wondering whether EVs are really OK to have as a single option. But they think it’s the trend so they can’t speak out loudly.”
BMW wants Europe to relax its plan to ban new petrol and diesel-powered cars from 2035 onward, in an effort to reduce the region’s reliance on batteries from China. While many automakers have fully embraced electrification, BMW is opting for a more diversified strategy.
In addition to battery electric vehicles (BEVs), the company is investing in alternative technologies such as e-fuels and hydrogen fuel cells, betting that the future of mobility won’t be driven by batteries alone.
They just want to force their climate nonsense on us when in fact it’s a control issue by the Climate wienees. They tried making us act like sheep during Covid and we’re not going to do it again. This level of technology of battery-powered cars is not the answer, especially when they can turn them off for social non-compliance.
People may say they don’t care, but when it comes down to brass tacks, they are NIMBY’S.
Most are showing how it affects them in their voting.
Prominent pollster Scott Rasmussen says the issue of transgenderism with biological men playing in biological women’s sports could move voters in swing states to the right.
“We now have colleges forfeiting their games rather than play against transgender athletes,” Rasmussen said on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show. “So the issue has some general impact.”
Over the past few weeks, multiple schools have canceled womens’ volleyball matches against San Jose State due to the team having a transgender player on the team who had been seen spiking balls into the faces of the opposing team during matches, according to Fox News.
This issue has come up in schools all over the country from Loudoun County, Virginia, to Leon County, Florida with minors “identifying” as transgender and creating an ongoing conflict between the schools and parents.
Rasmussen said that this issue could particularly impact Senate races in swing states.
“Where I’m starting to see it is in Senate races,” he said. “We see it playing out in the Texas Senate race, in Wisconsin and in Michigan.”
As reported, Kamala Harris held a rally fearmongering over abortion this past week. She mocked two young Christians. When two Lacrosse University students called out “Jesus is Lord,” she said they were at the wrong rally.
They were kicked out as she laughed at them and mocked them. The audience jeered at the college students. These people hate Christians, and Harris encourages this divisiveness.
I’m very tired of atheists bashing us. Christians aren’t doing anything to them.
So she’s no different from the rest of the liberals and democrats. They hate God, just like the Communists. They keep trying to take God out of the picture so that the Government can become the God of the people.
Wrong on just about everything in life and an American traitor, Jane Fonda pulls this.
You might think that a self-proclaimed climate advocate would be thrilled to see an announcement of more clean, reliable energy on the grid. But, you’d be wrong.
Last month, Constellation Energy announced a deal with Microsoft to reopen a reactor at Three Mile Island, now called the Crane Clean Energy Center. Expected to open by 2028 and operate for at least 20 years, the reactor is a promise of not only energy security amidst exploding energy demand, but an economic boon for Pennsylvania as well. According to a report completed by the Brattle Group, reopening the reactor is expected to create more than 3,000 jobs and add $16 billion to Pennsylvania’s GDP.
Yet, actor and activist Jane Fonda took to the pages of The Philadelphia Inquirer to proclaim that “Nuclear power at Three Mile Island is no climate solution.” Fueled by her decades-long hatred of the energy source, Fonda makes a bizarre and convoluted argument that America’s single largest source of clean energy is not what we need to tackle climate change.
Even worse, she misleads readers by conflating the two reactors at TMI. Unit 2, owned by Energy Solutions, was the site of the partial meltdown in 1979 and has not operated since. Unit 1 is owned by Constellation and was one of the most reliable nuclear power plants in the country until it closed in 2019 for economic reasons. Having grown up just an hour south of the facility in southern York County, I remember hearing about the ramifications of the accident. Nuclear power was seen as “scary” and “dangerous” by Pennsylvanians who simply cared about their family’s health and safety.
As the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) carries out widely criticized responses to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, officials say the agency’s Disaster Recovery Fund is incapable of handling a third major storm. While some are circulating false accusations that disaster funds have been diverted to immigrants or poured into the proxy war in Ukraine, a review of the agency’s 2024 outlays reveals a different, ongoing drain on FEMA’s coffers: Long after the end of the declared Covid-19 emergency, FEMA is still pumping out billions of dollars to pay for pandemic expenses — including, believe it or not, up to $9,000 each for funerals.
Under Administrator Deanne Criswell, FEMA is still paying out billions of dollars in Covid-19-era reimbursements (screenshot from ABC News)
As previously detailed here at Stark Realities, governments’ response to the Covid-19 pandemic was disastrous on many fronts. While the Pandora’s box of collateral damage included widespread harm to the physical and mental health of individuals, it also dealt a blow to the nation’s fiscal well-being, as the federal government recklessly showered trillions of dollars it didn’t have on people, businesses and state and local governments — with much of that money intended to offset the effects of government’s own tyrannical and counterproductive policies.
Harvard donations plunge 15% as alumni cut ties over weak response to campus antisemitism
Harvard University warned that donations to its endowment have nosedived as outraged alumni cut ties with the school over its feeble response to on-campus antisemitism.
Cash gifts to the Ivy League school fell about 15% to less than $1.2 billion during the fiscal year ended June 30, according to a Harvard financial report released Thursday.
Harvard was mired in controversy after Hamas’ Oct. 7 terrorist attacks on Israel. Like other elite colleges across the US, pro-Palestinian students protested and set up encampments on Harvard’s campus.
Tensions boiled over when Harvard’s then-president Claudine Gay refused to condemn student groups that held Israel “entirely responsible” for the Oct. 7 attacks.
Soon after, deep-pocketed donors – including billionaire investor Len Blavatnik and hedge fund titan Ken Griffin – suspended giving to the university. Less-wealthy alumni also abandoned their contributions.
Also known as lying or bullshit. I worked in the industry and saw just how much it was just that.
“’I’m a businessman. I’ll take the [government green] money, that’s all I care about… I will move heaven and earth to get projects done over here’.” – James Quigley, quoted in Politico ‘s “Power Switch” (below)
Government is the great fiction through which everyone endeavors to live at the expense of everyone else. Every one is, more or less, for profiting by the labors of others. No one would dare to express such a sentiment; he even hides it from himself.
The Frenchman added:
When plunder becomes a way of life for a group of men in a society, over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it.
Correct. Government does not create wealth; it redistributes it (after a large cut). Who wins and loses? The winners are government, the lobbyists, and the rent-seekers, with concentrated benefits to them and diffused costs for the rest of us. Plunder, Bastiat would say.
—————-
I was reminded of this by a news item reported in Politico‘s “Power Switch” newsletter (August 16, 2023).
“Not all Republicans want to repeal the climate law that turns 1 today,” reported Josh Siegel. “In fact, my colleague Kelsey Tamborrino and I spoke to dozens of people from all corners of the country and discovered that many GOP officials in rural areas are welcoming the billions of dollars in clean energy incentives coming from President Joe Biden’s signature legislation.”
So do you think they found Republicans that feared “climate change” and welcomed “green” energy as cheaper and better? No, the interviewed were financially captured rent-seekers, enjoying a wealth transfer from taxpayers (via Biden) to their pockets. Here is the rest of the story.
In Rogers County, Okla., Republican Commissioner Ron Burrows looks at the Inflation Reduction Act and sees jobs — 1,000 of them to be exact. At least once the Italian giant Enel opens its $1 billion solar manufacturing plant there in 2025.
Burrows is not alone. Other political and economic leaders in Oklahoma, including Republican Gov. Kevin Stitt, are glad to receive the major investments they say they’d never have attracted without the climate law.
“You can imagine being in a small rural community and trying to get economic development to come — it’s a challenge,” said Rosalie Griffith, a board member of the Rural Economic Development of Inola. “But unless you develop, you’re going to die.”
Burrows said Enel’s decision to locate in his tiny town east of Tulsa — population 1,500 — would not have happened without local buy-in. “I just don’t see a company making that sort of investment without some level of comfort that it’s not adversarial, it’s not split,” he said.
By contrast, his local member of Congress — GOP Rep. Josh Brecheen — views the Inflation Reduction Act through the prism of most national Republicans. Brecheen told me he opposes the use of “taxpayer subsidization” to bolster Democrats’ favored green industries and is seeking to repeal the law.
Kelsey and I found that same disconnect between state and local GOP officials in rural areas and their federal representatives across the country.
There’s even a similar, but less dramatic, dynamic unfolding in upstate New York. GOP Rep. Marc Molinaro voted to repeal the Inflation Reduction Act’s clean energy incentives, and that’s made him a top target of Democrats in the 2024 election. His district is one of 18 that voted for Biden but are held by Republicans.
Inflation Reduction Act money catalyzed Canadian company Zinc8 Energy Solutions’ decision to locate a planned battery factory in Molinaro’s purple district. The project is expected to bring up to 500 new jobs to a Hudson Valley region still suffering from the loss of its manufacturing base in the 1990s. That’s exciting James Quigley, a Republican who drives a Tesla and is the supervisor for the town of Ulster, where Zinc8 plans to locate.
“I’m a businessman. I’ll take the money, that’s all I care about,” Quigley said. “I will move heaven and earth to get projects done over here.”
Final Comment
Gosh Josh, what did you really find our here? Are you proud of this? Did you and Kelsey Tamborrino ask the same parties if they liked the federal deficit and inflation? The present level of taxation? The wisdom of the few over the energy verdicts of the masses?
Money for these subsidies has to come from somewhere, and that means the private economy in higher taxes and more government borrowing…. The IRA [Inflation Reduction Act] is the heart of Bidenomics, which is about creating a new political-subsidy economy. Perhaps all of this will effloresce into a brilliant green future. More likely hundreds of billions in misallocated investment will reduce future productivity gains and translate into slower economic and income growth. Let’s hope President Biden’s subsidies don’t boomerang like pandemic transfer payments, leaving all Americans poorer.
What a waste, what a shame. The next President needs to issue an emergency declaration that the U.S. is out of money and cease all subsidies of the Inflation Reduction Act in order to pause wind, solar, and battery subsidies. Ratepayers and taxpayers will be thankful.
Yes, the horse de-wormer they tried to propagandize away from treating COVID-19, which it successfully cured. It’s amazing the depths of depravity of Big Pharma, the government, and doctors went to preventing this practically miracle drug.
Now this:
A new cancer treatment protocol involving repurposed drugs Ivermectin (commonly known as a ‘horse dewormer’), Fenbendazole (a ‘dog dewormer’), and Mebendazole has recently passed peer review and is being heralded as a potential breakthrough in cancer therapy.According to the Public Library of Science (PLOS), a research protocol is a detailed study design or set of instructions for carrying out a specific experimental process or procedure.The hybrid orthomolecular protocol, featured in the Journal of Orthomolecular Medicine (Vol. 39.3), targets the mitochondrial-stem cell connection (MSCC), a key mechanism believed to drive cancer stem cells and tumor progression.
Dr. William Makis, a nuclear medicine physician and researcher specializing in multiple medical fields, including cancer and one of the first doctors to warn about the danger of the COVID shot, shared this news in a post on X.
BREAKING NEWS: First-in-the-World Ivermectin, Mebendazole and Fenbendazole Protocol in Cancer has been peer-reviewed and published on Sep.19, 2024!The future of Cancer Treatment starts NOW.My thanks to lead authors Ilyes Baghli and Pierrick Martinez for their incredible inspired work, FLCCC’s Dr.Paul Marik for his extensive work on repurposed drugs and every co-author who worked hard to bring this paper to life.I hope that this peer-reviewed paper lays the groundwork for a brand new future for Cancer Treatment.
The scientific method is a wonderfully useful tool for understanding our universe. Its socio-benefits are self-apparent. I’m certainly not anti-science; if anything, I’m a big fan. My life is better because of it.
But I’m also aware of its limitations.
For starters, science is not synonymous with truth — and the scientific method is an extremely limited tool. Yes, we’ve used it with great success to understand our universe, but its utility is not universal.
Woe to the man who only understands the universe via the scientific method. You’d miss the most important things in life!
In its purest, axiomatic sense, the scientific method (i.e. attaching a hypothesis to an observation, developing a replicable test, and recording the results) is self-correcting, because future experiments should address any incongruities. As the quality and frequency of experiments improve, better data should arise.
At least that’s the theory.
But in actuality, the problem with “trusting the science” is threefold:
Scientists are just people, and people are biased. The scientific community is not immune to bias, political pressures, the lure of career advancements, or the impact of preconceived agendas.
The scientific method is only as good as the quality of its experiments, and far too many things (climate change, evolution, biological studies, health) are challenging to directly experiment. For example, it would be extraordinarily useful to know what our current temperature would be without any manmade greenhouse emissions whatsoever. (Hey, maybe the Global Warming alarmists are 100% right.) But we don’t know because it’s not something we can directly test. Instead, we’re left with cherry-picking clusters of facts and using them to build various arguments. And that leads to…
Our current usage of “science” has led to a ridiculously large number of false positives. That’s because it’s far too easy for biased scientists to generate media attention (and raise money) by publicizing a conclusion that’s centered on cherry-picked data. It happens all the time, and it’s gotten to the point that it’s practically a cliché: One week, a “scientific study” is announced that says chocolate (or whatever) is the secret to weight loss. Next week, the study is denounced. It’s practically a weekly occurrence.
Too many unethical scientists are wearing the cloak of “science” to lend the veneer of credibility to utterly unscientific conclusions. Chief among them is Scientific American magazine, which announced last month that it was endorsing Kamala Harris for president. In the magazine’s illustrious 179-year history, it has made presidential endorsements exactly twice — in 2020 and 2024 — and both times, they were anti-Trump. (Very odd, eh?)
Scientific American explained its “logic” in an article released today: “The 2024 Presidential Election Will Make or Break U.S. Climate Action.” It’s worth reading because it’s absolutely NOT a scientific piece. It’s an aggressively liberal screed on public policy. And because you can’t test planetary climate cycles via direct experimentations, the Scientific American “scientists” did the next best thing: They used a computer program that spits out whatever data it’s been designed to regurgitate.
To provide a broad look at how potential policies under Harris or Trump would shape future U.S. [greenhouse] emissions, Orvis’s team at EI used its Energy Policy Simulator, an open-source computer model. The researcher compared current policies under the Biden-Harris administration with more ambitious policies that achieve a target of net-zero carbon emissions by 2050 and with the policies laid out in Project 2025. The found that the latter scenario ‘basically stops the progress that’s been made’…
How scientific! They relied on Project 2025 — which Trump has repeatedly disavowed — as their sole basis for GOP action. And then they found a computer model that gave them the pro-Harris results they sought.
Presto: Here’s the science!
It’s silly and disingenuous. But it’s also deeply damaging to actual science because it sullies its reputation. By contorting “science” into something it’s not, liberal activists are actually engaging in a very specific form of Climate Denial: Their unabashed dishonesty, political manipulations, and brazen opportunism have created a climate where scientists can no longer be trusted.
It’s too bad. If you’re a true fan of science, this is not at all what you want. But that’s the reality today.
As it turns out, the biggest problems with science are the scientists.
Diddyforced a college freshman to take her clothes off under threat of violence and once she was undressed, he forced himself on her and fondled, molested and raped her … all while she was begging him to stop … at least according to a new lawsuit.
The Bad Boy Records founder is being sued by a woman in Tennessee, who claims she was only 19 years old and a freshman in college in 2004 when she got invited to Diddy’s photoshoot across the street from her college campus in Brooklyn, New York.
According to the lawsuit, obtained by TMZ, the woman says she was flattered and excited to receive an invite from a celebrity like Diddy … so she went to the photoshoot with one of her girlfriends, where she says they met Diddy and were invited to an after-party at a Manhattan area Marriott hotel.
The woman says she and her friend agreed to go to the party and they were taken to the hotel by a member of Diddy’s entourage … and when they got to the hotel suite and tried to mingle with guests drinking and listening to music, they were instead grabbed and taken into a separate room. She says she asked the guy who took her to the room where they were going and he responded, “You know what you are here for.”

As soon as money became the issue, see how little the climate scam mattered?
I got to work with Schmidt when I was with IBM. He told me that the do no evil was a lie back when Google stood behind it as a corporate mission. He basically said don’t trust him or Google and I don’t. This is more evidence that they (the climatards) were lying the whole time about the climate scam. They were just trying to get people to act the way they wanted to, also known as socialism. See the recycling story below on that.
… any moves to curtail the expanding amounts of energy consumed in developing … ever more advanced AI models are futile…
Google’s former chief Eric Schmidt thinks we shouldn’t let AI’s ballooning power consumption worry us, because putting AI to work on climate change issues will be our best shot at solving them.
Schmidt was speaking at a recent AI summit in Washington DC, and his comments echo those of Microsoft founder Bill Gates who expressed very similar sentiments at an event in London earlier this year.
…
“All of that will be swamped by the enormous needs of this new technology,” he said, adding that “we may make mistakes with respect to how it’s used, but I can assure you that we’re not going to get there through conservation.”
Schmidt further stated that he believes that “we’re not going to hit the climate goals anyway because we’re not organized to do it,” and that he would rather bet on AI solving the problems than constraining the development of the tech and still having the problems anyway.
This rather optimistic view of the Earth-saving potential of AI can perhaps be explained by the fact that Schmidt has his own investments in the technology. According to Business Insider, he is the founder of White Stork, a defense company that develops AI-powered drones.
On March 22, 1987, the barge Mobro 4000, loaded with six million pounds of garbage and towed by tugboat Break of Dawn, departed Islip, New York. It was bound for Morehead City, North Carolina — but never did dock there. Instead, it spent the next five months at sea, turned away by multiple states and three foreign countries. It became big news when journalist Dan Rather called it “the most watched load of garbage in the memory of man.” But another load of garbage was the story the media spun about it. In reality, no one would accept the Mobro because of a rumor that it was carrying medical waste. But that’s not the narrative the media pushed.
It advanced the notion that the Mobro’s fate was a result of a lack of dump space.
The “solution,” of course, was recycling. The timing was perfect, too, as there already was increasing public concern about waste. Oh, never mind that, as Reader’s Digest reported decades ago, 1,000 years of America’s trash could fit in an area 50 miles square (one m2 per state) and 200 feet high — the average modern dump’s height. “Never let a crisis go to waste,” and this one wasn’t wasted: The story helped catalyze the recycling movement. The Mobro 4000 might have been adrift, but recycling proponents’ ship had come in.
Of particular concern, too, is plastic, with stories of the material polluting our oceans. But what if plastic recycling is a myth, if not a scam, that is not only wasteful but environmentally damaging?
Yes, it is one of the biggest scams in history and you can read about how little it really matters at the link above.
Don’t forget that getting the guilty to recycle is no different than lining up the sheep for a jab. It is to get a group to behave the way the government wants them to act. In other words, it’s just another step toward socialism through behavioral acts of perceived service. Socialism is just one step away from communism, what the assholes in DC want anyway.
Don’t be a sheep. Throw it away, just not on the street. It’s cheaper to treat it as garbage than as recycling as you can read and you are not helping the environment by recycling.
The Biden-Harris Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) says it has temporarily suspended certain Hurricane Helene relief operations in several North Carolina communities due to perceived threats against federal aid workers. According to FEMA, federal disaster relief operations were halted in Rutherford County after the agency received reports from the National Guard that an “armed militia” was allegedly threatening relief workers.
“For the safety of our dedicated staff and the disaster survivors we are helping, FEMA has made some operational adjustments,” an agency spokesman said in astatement on Monday. They added: “Disaster Recovery Centers will continue to be open as scheduled, survivors continue to register for assistance, and we continue to help the people of North Carolina with their recovery.”
Oh, they are there. I’ve seen them here in NC, but they aren’t doing anything other than take up space (where our Farmers Market usually is, they had to move) and act like the 10 men doing road construction. At least 9 just stand around and one guy digs. I haven’t seen FEMA do anything. Samaritan’s Purse and Alliance Baptist Church along with the locals the, on the ground army.
Save the tax money and get rid of FEMA. They are only helping the illegals.
n the aftermath of Hurricane Helene—even before Hurricane Milton followed in its wake—nonprofit charitable organizations such as Samaritan’s Purse and Save Our Allies stepped up to help the storm’s victims.
The president of Samaritan’s Purse, Franklin Graham, told The Daily Signal in a telephone interview that one of the positive things he has seen is neighbor helping neighbor.
“If you’re going to sit in your house or your apartment waiting for the government to come—well, good luck. You’re going to be waiting a long time,” said Graham, the son of the legendary late evangelist the Rev. Billy Graham.
The greatest moral hazard in American life is politics.
Many of you probably remember 2012 GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney being secretly recorded by a Democratic operative telling donors that “47% of the people who will vote for the president no matter what” because they are “dependent upon government … believe that they are victims … believe the government has a responsibility to care for them … these are people who pay no income tax.”
Even I could have told you that accusing half the electorate of being a bunch of moochers was a bad idea. Coming from a fat cat like Romney, it reeked of snobbery.
Also, Romney happened to be correct.
And what he said then is even truer today. But in contemporary politics, asking citizens to pay for their own life is an act of self-immolation.
In a recent Gallup poll, an amazing 9 in 10 young women support socialized medicine, paired with higher taxes on the wealthy. What is the risk in backing pricey utopian experiments when there’s no bill coming in the mail? Now, if we flattened federal taxes and compelled everyone to pay their “fair share,” or even one-tenth of their share, for that matter, 9 in 10 young women would be hoisting Gadsden flags on their lawns and sticking “taxation is theft” bumper stickers on their cars.
That’s never going to happen, because the incentives of contemporary politics are dangerously distorted. The more the government spends, the less Americans expect to pay. The more dependency it creates, the less self-reliance it expects.
The Wall Street Journal recently reported on a new study that found a mind-boggling spike in government dependency. In 1970, safety-net funding accounted for the significant income in fewer than 1% of all counties in the country. By 2000, 10% of counties were getting a significant share of their income from federal and state safety-net and social programs. Today? More than half of all U.S. counties drew at least a quarter of their income from government aid.
While people on the Left like to grouse about “income inequality,” they never mention that every year, nearly $2 trillion, about the gross domestic product of a midsized European country, is transferred to low-income Americans through hundreds of programs, from Medicaid to food stamps to refundable tax credits. Right now, there are 42 million people on food stamps.
It would be one thing if the state were lifting citizens from poverty, but it is creating a permanent underclass.
A new DNA study on the 500-year-old remains of Christopher Columbus has found that the controversial explorer was actually a Sephardic Jew from Western Europe.
Spanish researchers announced their findings in a new documentary, titled Columbus DNA: The True Origin, which aired on Spain’s national broadcaster TVE. Since 2003, scientists have tested samples of remains buried at Seville Cathedral in Spain, believed to be the final resting place of the 15th-century explorer.
In the documentary, Jose Antonio Lorente, a professor of forensic medicine, who led the research at the University of Granada, said his analysis revealed that Columbus’s DNA was “compatible” with his being of Jewish origin.
Throughout the 21-year investigation, DNA experts compared samples of the remains with those of Columbus’s known relatives and descendants. “We have DNA from Christopher Columbus, very partial, but sufficient. We have DNA from Fernando Colon, his son,” Professor Lorente said, per CNN. “And both in the Y chromosome (male) and in the mitochondrial DNA (transmitted by the mother) of Fernando, there are traits compatible with Jewish origin.”
Obama hated any Colonization because of his Kenyan roots. Hell, he wouldn’t even keep the bust of Winston Churchill, removing it on day one. But then he hates America and Jews, and did everything he could to ruin it from within. He’s always been a racist.
Harris said:
It is an honor, of course, to be with you this week as we celebrate Indigenous People’s Day as we speak truth about our nation’s history. Since 1934, every October, the United States has recognized the voyage of the European explorers who first landed on the shores of the Americas. But that is not the whole story.
That has never been the whole story. Those explorers ushered in a wave of devastation for tribal nations. Perpetrating violence, stealing land and spreading disease. We must not shy away from this shameful past, and we must shed light on it and do everything we can to address the impact of the past on native communities today.
Topline: The Biden-Harris administration is eclipsing the $1 trillion mark in improper payments, a new record for wasted money in a four-year term, according to a recent report from OpenTheBooks.com.
Key facts: Improper payments — money sent by the federal government to the wrong person, for the wrong reason or in the wrong amount — totaled over $800 billion from 2021 to 2023, adjusted for inflation.
That’s $450,000 every minute. In the roughly five seconds it takes to read this very sentence, the government will have wasted $37,500 on mistaken payments.
Medicaid and Medicare accounted for 43% of improper payments last year, but problems were found across the board. Dead people received $295 million, mostly from pension benefits the Office of Personnel Management sent to former federal workers who had passed away. Prisoners were paid $171 million.
The Internal Revenue Service spent $25 billion doling out fraudulent and mistaken tax credits, with some IRS programs reporting mistake rates above 30%.
The issue is not new, but it is getting progressively worse. Barack Obama wasted roughly 4% of his spending on improper payments in his second term. Donald Trump wasted roughly 5%, and Biden is approaching 6%.
Because she’d do more damage than good. There is only a small cross section of people that like Michelle. Her history of grifting and America hating turns off a lot of people. The liberals and radicals already are in Kamala’s pocket so she doesn’t bring anything to the table there.
Many are wondering why exactly it is that former First Lady Michelle Obama is not campaigning for Vice President Kamala Harris.
This comes, according to the Daily Mail, as Obama’s husband – former President Barack Obama – has hit the campaign trail for Harris, looking to stir up support for her in the final weeks leading up to the 2024 presidential election.
In contrast, the former first lady has been far less active than her husband.
As we will see, though, this does not mean that she is inactive.
Here’s what is going on:
It was Politico that first reported recently that Barack Obama has decided to do some significant campaigning for Harris.
The outlet wrote:
The former president will appear Thursday at an event in the Pittsburgh area, the start of what will be part of a swing-state “blitz” through Election Day, said a senior campaign official, granted anonymity to discuss the schedule ahead of the announcement.
This so-called “blitz” is already underway, with Obama hitting the campaign trail on Thursday. In the process, he managed to stir up some serious controversy.
Obama is scheduled to continue holding rallies in battleground states through Election Day.
A spokesman for Obama said:
President Obama believes the stakes of this election could not be more consequential and that is why he is doing everything he can to help elect Vice President Harris, Governor Walz and Democrats across the country.
