  • By Picking Walz, Harris Confirms That The Radical Left Is Fully In Control Of The Democratic Party

    There’s a reason nobody expected far-left Kamala Harris to pick a far-left governor from a deep blue state as her running mate. It’s never worked. In the wake of Jimmy Carter’s crushing defeat in 1980 and repeated Democratic losses thereafter, the party decided that to win presidential elections they had to at least appear as moderates. Bill Clinton won by labeling himself a “new Democrat” and picked Al Gore, then a fellow moderate Southerner. Gore in turn tapped Joe Lieberman as his running mate. Barack Obama tried to position himself to the right of John McCain and ran with Scranton...

    Researchers at Tel Aviv University conducted a study with Egyptian fruit bats to explore cognitive abilities like episodic memory and planning, previously thought unique to humans. They used GPS trackers to monitor the bats’ movements and found that bats could track fruit tree locations and fruiting times, showing abilities to remember past experiences and plan for future needs. ====================================================================================== Research on Egyptian fruit bats revealed their capability for memory and planning, challenging the notion that these cognitive abilities are uniquely human. A team of researchers from Tel Aviv University tracked free-ranging Egyptian fruit bats to investigate whether animals possess complex...

    And, of course, a free pass for the Muslim mobs whose presence must not even be mentioned. Daniel Greenfield - "Hang Together or Separately" @Sultanknish This is UK Justice Minister Shabana Mahmood Now do you understand why the UK police and the Labour regime are letting Muslim mobs freely attack British people while ruthlessly cracking down on protests against migrant violence? Shabana Mahmood MP @ShabanaMahmood My message to anyone who chooses to take part in this violence and thuggery is simple: the police, courts and prisons stand ready and you will face the consequences of your appalling acts.

    I’ve now been in full time ministry work with Wisconsin Christian News for over 25 years. For over 25 years, I’ve been sounding the alarm and doing my best to send out “wake up calls” to Christians, who see the evil in our land, but feel powerless to do anything about it, because they’ve never been trained for the work of the ministry. They’ve never been asked to do anything, other than greet people at the door, hand out programs, pass the collection plate or work in the nursery — all within the four walls of their own churches. Others...

    Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard may be on the watchlist of a secret domestic surveillance program designed to sniff out potential terrorists. And it may be related, in part, to her willingness to speak out about Vice President Kamala Harris’s shortcomings as a leader. Undercover DC is reporting that several Federal Air Marshal whistleblowers have come forward with information showing that Gabbard is enrolled in the TSA’s Quiet Skies program which has its own compartmentalized watchlist of suspected terrorists.

    Russia has lost two helicopters and two main battle tanks in its efforts to fend off a cross-border raid into the Kursk region, reports suggest, as Russian sources suggest Kyiv's forces encroached several miles into Russian territory during the surprise assault. Open-source intelligence accounts, along with Russian and Ukrainian military-focused sources, suggest Russia lost a Ka-52 helicopter, an Mi-28 helicopter and two tanks in the Kursk region after Ukraine launched its cross-border attack on Tuesday. Ukrainian media amplified reports claiming that the Mi-28 was taken out by a Ukrainian first-person view (FPV) drone. Russian journalist Alexander Sladkov said on Wednesday...

    If you know where to look, there is already plenty of information on what Harris is going to do if she has the chance to impose California’s liberal progressive agenda on the entire nation. Long before fate made Kamala Harris the presumptive nominee of the Democratic Party for U.S. President, the Washington Post published an article critical of how she treats staff. The article, published in December of 2021, reported high staff turnover and claimed it “opens up questions about her management style.” What were they thinking? Very recent top search results on the Washington Post’s coverage of Harris only...

    American Thinker ^ | 7 Aug, 2024 | Sheila Gallo
    There are some bizarre and concerning issues popping up regarding the chain of custody for the would-be assassin’s body. On August 2, many news outlets reported that the autopsy of Thomas Matthew Crooks had been released by the Butler County Coroner’s Office. The fact is that mainstream media are late to the party, and the Butler County Coroner’s Office released the cause and manner of death of Thomas Matthew Crooks to AbleChild nearly two weeks earlier on July 21. Unfortunately, what the mainstream media don’t understand is that the cause and manner of death are not an autopsy, and although...

    The monster special needs student who pummeled his teacher after she took his Nintendo Switch has been sentenced to five years in a Florida state prison. Brendan Depa, who was 17 at the time of the beating, tackled teacher's aide Joan Naydich, 59, in February 2023 and unleashed dozens of punches to her body and head, leaving her seriously bruised and unconscious. Depa, who is 6'6' and 270 pounds, has become a legal adult since the brutal attack he perpetrated at Matanzas High School in Palm Coast, Florida, a moderately sized town near Daytona Beach.

She stopped living with him in 2022, when the last incident had happened. Prior to his arrest, James had learned of the accusations made against him through his ex-wife. He...

Putting this in context on this day in 2016 Hillary lead by 4.5 points and in 2020 Joe lead by 9 points. We kinda know how those both went.
