A North Carolina church is facing backlash after displaying controversial political messages on its digital billboard. People’s Baptist Church in Greenville has since removed the messages, one of which stated that “free healthcare for illegals is on the ballot.” While the church’s website boasts of a “warm, friendly atmosphere where everyone is welcome,” at least one member of the community feels otherwise. Jessi Melendez told WITN that the political messages were “disgusting.” “You’re talking about human beings,” said Jessi Melendez. “Human beings deserve better than that. This church needs to do better.” The messages on the digital billboard addressed issues...

Whoopi Goldberg told her co-hosts Wednesday on ABC’s “The View” that it turned out former Secretary of State and then-Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton was right when she called supporters of Donald Trump “deplorables.” During the panel discussion on President Joe Biden calling Trump supporters “garbage,” Goldberg said, “So you know they’re working very hard to spin this to some crazy end, but this is my problem. let me explain to y’all. I don’t understand why all the pearl clutching over Biden’s statement. Why they all have a problem with what Biden said when what this other guy has said.” She...

Half of Gen Z voters — and 1 in 4 U.S. voters overall — have lied to people close to them about who they're voting for, according to the latest Axios Vibes survey by The Harris Poll. Why it matters: Voters 18-27 who came of age during the hyper-polarized Trump era appear to be among the most sensitive to perceived pressure and judgment from friends or loved ones. "There's a new privacy emerging here, where it's far more convenient to either lie or not talk about it," said John Gerzema, CEO of The Harris Poll, which is not affiliated with...

Kamala spoke at The Ellipse yesterday in D.C. Reports came out that dozens of buses brought in attendees. MSM said 75,000 people were there. This clear shot of the crowd looks to be under 10,000 to me. There any way (computer program?) to calculate the crowd size? I see maybe 15 porta-potties to the size. I'd imagine they have to have one per x number of people for permits.

The multi-billionaire owner of the Washington Post, Jeff Bezos, continued facing criticism throughout the weekend because executives from his aerospace company met with Donald Trump on the same day the newspaper prevented its editorial team from publishing an endorsement of his opponent in the US presidential election. Senior news and opinion leaders at the Washington Post flew to Miami in late September 2024 to meet with Bezos, who had reservations about the paper issuing an endorsement in the 5 November election, the New York Times reported. Amazon and the space exploration company Blue Origin are among Bezos-owned businesses that still...

Around the country, Republicans are seeking to rewrite voting registration laws and file lawsuits over noncitizen voting. In Wisconsin, it’s coming down to a fight over the state constitution.MILWAUKEE — Panic took hold of Roselia Navarro when Donald Trump first campaigned for president on a promise to ramp up deportations. She had been in the United States without legal status since she was 13, and when he won, she worried he could send her to Mexico, separating her from her 3-year-old daughter. Navarro, who is married to a U.S. citizen, secured U.S. citizenship herself last year. She is excited to...

GOP veep pick JD Vance on Sunday went head to head with CNN host Jake Tapper over former President Donald Trump’s rhetoric and the fact that some former top aides have called him a “fascist.” “State of the Union’s” Tapper came out of the gate grilling Vance on Trump’s remarks about an “enemy from within” and retired Gen. John Kelly’s suggestion that his onetime boss fits “into the general definition of fascist.” Vance, 40, in turn belittled Trump turncoats such as Kelly and former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-Wyo.) as warmongers, which led to Tapper, 55, to drill down on the...

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that if former President Donald Trump wins the presidential election, billionaire businessman Elon Musk would likely be “running the government.” Host Kristen Welker said, “I have to ask you about developments related to Elon Musk. The Wall Street Journal reporting this week that Musk a major government contractor and someone that has security clearance that gives him access to highly classified information has been in regular contact with Vladimir Putin for the last two years. My question for you, is it appropriate for Elon Musk to have these secret...

Former President Donald Trump on Saturday invited several Muslim leaders onstage with him at a campaign rally in Michigan as he courts Arab American and Muslim voters disillusioned or angry over US policy on Israel and Gaza in the critical battleground state. “They could turn the election one way or the other,” Trump said in the Detroit suburb of Novi, located about a half hour from Dearborn, which last year became the first Arab-majority city in the US. Trump said in his speech that he had held a meeting earlier in the day with Muslim leaders. He was joined onstage...

It is hard to imagine a candidate more unworthy to serve as president of the United States than Donald Trump. He has proved himself morally unfit for an office that asks its occupant to put the good of the nation above self-interest. He has proved himself temperamentally unfit for a role that requires the very qualities — wisdom, honesty, empathy, courage, restraint, humility, discipline — that he most lacks. Those disqualifying characteristics are compounded by everything else that limits his ability to fulfill the duties of the president: his many criminal charges, his advancing age, his fundamental lack of interest...

On a Friday in late September, Donald J. Trump took time off the campaign trail for a closed-door meeting at Mar-a-Lago with officials representing the vaping industry. The vaping emissaries talked about loosening regulations and told the former president he had “saved” the industry in the past. The group — including Mr. Trump’s 2016 campaign manager, Kellyanne Conway, and another 2016 campaign aide, Michael Rubino — showed him mock-ups of mailers they were sending out through Election Day. Mr. Trump asked for input on what he could say on social media about a complicated regulatory issue. Within hours, Mr. Trump...

WASHINGTON (AP) — “Black Insurrectionist,” the anonymous social media persona behind some of the most widely circulated conspiracy theories about the 2024 election, can be traced to a man from upstate New York. He’s also white. With a profile photo of a Black soldier and the tagline “I FOLLOW BACK TRUE PATRIOTS,” the account on the platform X amassed more than 300,000 followers while posting dubious claims about Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Some were amplified by former President Donald Trump, his running mate Ohio Sen. JD Vance, and their Republican allies in...

Donald Trump has described at length the dangerous and disturbing actions he says he will take if he wins the presidency. His rallies offer a steady stream of such promises and threats — things like prosecuting political opponents and using the military against U.S. citizens. These statements are so outrageous and outlandish, so openly in conflict with the norms and values of American democracy that many find them hard to regard as anything but empty bluster. We have two words for American voters: Believe him. The record shows that Mr. Trump often pursues his stated goals, regardless of how plainly...

I love The Washington Post, deep in my bones. Last month marked my 40th year of proud work for the institution, in the newsroom and in the Opinions section. I have never been more disappointed in the newspaper than I am today, with the tragically flawed decision not to make an endorsement in the presidential race.At a moment when The Post should have been stepping forward to sound the clarion call about the multiple dangers that Donald Trump poses to the nation and the world, it has chosen instead to pull back. That is the wrong choice at the worst...

VIDEO The basic theme of Mark Halperin's podcast channel, 2Way, is to have a CIVIL conversation about the 2024 campaign. This is why that channel has become popular since over the top partisanship is set aside in favor of a POLITE discussion about the campaign. As a result 2Way has become the go-to channel for many to keep up to date on the state of the campaign. And to their credit, Democrats and Republicans on the show, especially Democrat Dan Turrentine and Republican Sean Spicer have kept a civil but informative tone. Most of the other people also mostly stick...

Political analyst Jonathan Alter commented Friday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” on President Donald Trump‘s rise in the polls, which he attributed to voters not grasping “fascism.” Host Wolf Blitzer said, “Trump’s latest praise for dictators as a new ABC poll finds that nearly half the country thinks Trump is a fascist, will put those numbers up on the screen there you see 49% believe Trump is a fascist and yet our new CNN national poll today shows the race is tied you can see it over there, 47% to 47%. How do you square that?”

It was a bone-chilling report. As North Carolinians reeled from the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) suddenly ordered emergency workers "to stand down and evacuate" Rutherford County due to reports of "trucks of armed militias saying they were out hunting FEMA," The Washington Post reported on October 13, based on an email obtained from the U.S. Forest Service... The threat turned out to be something less serious. ...Through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request, Reason has obtained the original email thread about the threat. Forest Service firefighting official Gordy Sachs, quoting a message from...
