This is the latest Brighteon video from Mike Adams on his analysis of the Butler shooting. I previously posted his ballistic forensic analysis of the shots fired to kill Trump. Especially note his analysis of the "second floor" and the open window and his assessment that there were assassin shooters back away from the open window on this floor that were shooting at Trump.

Before she was Joe Biden’s understudy the last four years, Kamala Harris ran offices as a California prosecutor and senator. Often, scandal and failings followed in her wake. As California Attorney General, Harris was widely criticized for failing to take on prosecutorial misconduct. In fact her office was “called out” by judges for “defending convictions obtained by local prosecutors” who had inserted false confessions, lied under oath, and withheld evidence. A federal appeals judge even admonished officials in 2015 to talk to Harris "and make sure she understands the gravity of the situation" involving prosecutorial misconduct. Likewise, Harris’ top deputy...

Although Harris will provide a new face to the Dem’s ticket, her endlessly cackling face provides only a slight edge over Joe Biden against Donald Trump in almost every poll. As a “Border Czar” Harris has done nothing, so exactly what can we expect if she were to become the next President of the United States?

KSNV-TV reported last Wednesday that a Las Vegas hospital was put on standby to treat Joe Biden for a medical issue. Biden cut short a campaign trip to Nevada after reportedly being diagnosed with COVID and returned to Delaware, without going to the hospital, where he has not been seen since a pool camera caught him Wednesday night being unable to get in a car without help from the Secret Service. A pool reporter reported Air Force One flew back so fast “the plane shook.”

I began writing this over a week ago, before the Trump rally in Pennsylvania, and before the Republican National Convention in Milwaukee. My intention then was to speculate on the possible consequences of Democrats in Congress and other liberal-progressive leaders pushing their president and putative 2024 nominee off the ticket only weeks before the election. My speculative thoughts then were that the risks of changing their ticket with an unwilling Joe Biden were very great—although the president had chronically unfavorable polls, and these poll numbers were deteriorating, especially in key states. Now, Mr. Biden has officially stepped down from running...

Barack Obama, an old-fashioned ward boss, orchestrates the president’s removal. Democracy took a devastating hit on Sunday when President Biden withdrew from the presidential race. Along the way, he got it wrong. It isn’t Donald Trump who is an existential threat to our democracy. It’s Barack Obama. In the old-school way of Chicago backroom politics, Mr. Obama was the conductor of the band that successfully orchestrated the removal of the presidential candidate chosen by more than 14 million Democratic primary voters—to be replaced by someone he and the party bosses choose instead. It’s classic ward-boss tactics. I’ve known Mr. Obama...

THIS IS the moment Ukrainian soldiers shot down a Russian Su-25 attack jet. The incident occurred near Pokrovsk, Donetsk Oblast, the Khortytsia group of forces said on July 23. Anti-air units shot the plane down as it was attempting to fire on Ukrainian positions, the statement by the group forces said. The Khortytsia group of forces also shared a video that showed an anti-aircraft missile being launched and striking a plane in the distance. The Soviet-designed Su-25, nicknamed "Frogfoot" by NATO, is a heavily armored ground-attack aircraft.

The Big Apple has seen an alarming 11% jump in rapes this year — with some sections of the city seeing their numbers more than double. There were 880 rapes reported citywide from Jan. 1 through July 14, compared to 796 in the same period last year, NYPD stats reveal. “This should be a wake up call,” said Jane Manning, director of Women’s Equal Justice.“The NYPD needs to allocate more investigators to its understaffed Special Victims Unit, so that every case is investigated well and dangerous offenders are apprehended.”

For those that are concerned about the woman vote going for Kamala. It's 2024. All it requires is that JD or President Trump declare to be a woman candidate. After Thanksgiving they can transition back. Let's not continue to be the stupid party.

Hong Kong CNN — Palestinian factions including rivals Hamas and Fatah have signed an agreement on “ending division and strengthening Palestinian unity” in Beijing, China said Tuesday. The announcement followed reconciliation talks hosted by China involving 14 Palestinian factions starting Sunday, according to China’s Foreign Ministry, which come as Israel wages war against militant group Hamas in Gaza and as Beijing has sought to present itself as a potential peace broker in the conflict.

Just what a weary world needs. I have an idea. What if they just stopped blowing stuff up? The world is on fire; war is raging in Ukraine and Gaza, and a global war could break out at any moment. The Southern border is a fictional line on a map. Americans are being steadily robbed of their savings and prevented from being able to get ahead by the cruelest tax of all, inflation. The Biden regime, in a series of unprecedented and deeply un-American moves, has weaponized the Justice Department in order to destroy the leader of the political opposition....

Eight days before the 81-year-old president sensationally exited the race, Schumer, the Democratic Senate majority leader and Biden’s former congressional colleague, paid him a rare visit in Rehoboth Beach, Del., for a 35-minute meeting, a source told The Post. Schumer “opened by saying he was there out of love and affection and he came as a friend and colleague,” the source said.

In late May, a strange post appeared on the X account of Iran’s leader, Ayatollah Ali Khamenei. “Dear University Students in the United States of America,” it read, “you are standing on the right side of history. You have now formed a branch of the Resistance Front.” As it happens, the Supreme Leader’s government has struggled with its own resistance, ignited by the regime’s murder of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini, accused of violating Iranian laws requiring head coverings—the most visible, but far from only, limitation on women’s basic freedoms in the Islamic country. It’s hard to imagine that the cleric looked...

By Monday night, Harris secured 2,668 delegates at the Democratic National Convention in August. Only 56 delegates remain uncommitted, according to the informal count. Vice President Kamala Harris has secured verbal agreements from enough delegates to win the nomination, according to a survey conducted by the Associated Press. By Monday night, Harris secured 2,668 delegates at the Democratic National Convention in August. Only 56 delegates remain uncommitted, according to the informal count. The announcement came after dozens of state delegations began endorsing the vice president on Monday, pushing her expected delegate count far ahead of the 1,976 needed to secure...

… U.S. President Joe Biden’s decision to withdraw from the White House race may well turn 2024 into the Year of the Woman — namely, that of Vice President Kamala Harris who, armed with the outgoing president’s endorsement, can now be considered the front-runner to replace him atop the Democratic ticket. Truth is, if Harris is successful in getting the nod from the Democratic Party, much of the subsequent election campaign is likely to domestically focus on abortion and women’s rights. Trump already has a problem with women voters — polls have consistently shown that the proportion of women planning...

U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is facing serious questions from members of Congress over the failed assassination attempt on Donald Trump on July 13. And while he has yet to answer questions about how an identified threat was allowed to scout out the venue via a drone, climb onto a rooftop just 150 yards away from a presidential candidate and actually fire shots at Trump before being stopped, Mayorkas has boldly weighed in by issuing a statement regarding women in law enforcement. Instead of addressing the growing cascade of failures that nearly allowed the assassination of...

I want to be as respectful as I possibly can. The rumors are intense as of this posting whether or not Joe Biden is deceased or actively dying. This vanity post will address the issue of transfer of power. On the event of death, is VP Harris, due to both her birth status and her parents birth status, able to assume the Presidency? Or will this pass to Speaker Johnson until January?

Sharks off the coast of Brazil have tested positive for cocaine, scientists say. Marine biologists tested 13 Brazilian sharpnose sharks taken from the shores near Rio de Janeiro and found they tested for high levels of cocaine in their muscles and livers. The concentrations were as much as 100 times higher than previously reported for other aquatic creatures. Experts believe the cocaine is making its way into the waters via illegal labs where the drug is manufactured or through excrement of drug users. Packs of cocaine lost or dumped by traffickers at sea could also be a source, though this...

FARNBOROUGH AIRSHOW 2024 — Amid a revolution in air combat, the head of the US Air Force said Saturday he’s “reasonably confident” America’s next-generation fighter aircraft will have a pilot, leaving the door open, however slightly, for a radical departure from a fully manned system. “I’m confident there’s going to be a sixth-generation fighter. I’m reasonably confident that it’s going to be crewed,” Kendall told Breaking Defense in an exclusive interview over the weekend. That the Air Force is seemingly unsure whether the aircraft will need a pilot, and presumably a cockpit to house them, suggests the service may need...
