Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday said his strategy for the fall is less geared toward turning out supporters to vote and more focused on ensuring Democrats “don’t cheat” in the general election. "Our primary focus is not to get out the vote, it is to make sure they don’t cheat," Trump said in remarks at a campaign event in Asheboro, N.C., a state that Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign views as competitive this year. “We are going to fight like hell to win this election,” he added. “They are going to cheat like hell to win the election because...

How to attack former President Donald Trump? It’s a question that has tormented Democratic Party strategists for nearly a decade. Hillary Clinton called him “Dangerous Donald” and a racist. President Biden uses grave and lofty terms to describe him imperiling American democracy. Vice President Kamala Harris is trying something different: deflating him. The first two nights of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago have brought into sharper focus the lens through which Ms. Harris and her allies intend to frame Mr. Trump from now until Election Day. In slickly produced videos shown to delegates and in speech after speech, a...

Vladimir Putin's slow response to the incursion of Ukrainian forces into the border region of Kursk could ultimately leave him facing the wrath of his long-time enablers. Russia was caught unprepared by the offensive and reportedly is drafting conscripts to repel some of Ukraine's most battle-hardened units. Putin has a history of responding slowly to various crises in his tenure, and he has so far played down the attack. In his 24 years in power, Putin has portrayed himself as the only person who can guarantee Russia's security and stability but that image has suffered since the war began.

CHICAGO, Illinois — Green Party presidential candidate Dr. Jill Stein told Breitbart News in an exclusive on-camera interview she believes the “Deep State” is making the decisions in the Biden administration.

exas Attorney General Ken Paxton has launched a comprehensive investigation into allegations that nonprofit organizations are unlawfully registering noncitizens to vote in Texas. Investigators from the Texas Attorney General’s Election Integrity Unit have been actively conducting undercover operations to identify potential voter registration of noncitizens across the state. This is the same unit that arrested and booked Monica Mendez into the Victoria County Jail on June 23, 2021, after a Victoria County Grand Jury returned an indictment against her on multiple counts of election fraud: 7 counts of Illegal Voting (a 2nd Degree Felony), 8 counts of Unlawfully Assisting Voter...

CHICAGO, Illinois — Vice President Kamala Harris and President Joe Biden called Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on Wednesday to pressure the Israeli government to yield to Hamas’s demands for a hostage deal. On Monday, Netanyahu met with Secretary of State Antony Blinken and agreed to a U.S. “bridging” proposal that aimed to reconcile Israel’s demands with those of the Palestinian terrorist group Hamas, which holds 109 hostages.

Congress and President Joe Biden’s government have reportedly paid the Texas arm of Catholic Charities USA $769 million since 2021 to help deliver a huge population of poor migrants into U.S. communities, workplaces, and housing. “Catholic Charities has a history of prioritizing the needs of migrants over those of Americans,” said Sheena Rodriguez, the president of Alliance for a Safe Texas, which champions border security and anti-trafficking programs. “I’ve spoken with numerous homeless Americans who claimed they were forced out of [a Catholic Charities] shelter in the dead of night to accommodate the influx of illegal migrants,” she told Breitbart...

Attorney General Ken Paxton.. I am launching an investigation into reports that organizations in Texas are illegally registering non-citizens to vote. Texans are deeply troubled by the possibility that organizations purporting to assist with voter registration are illegally registering noncitizens to vote in our elections. If eligible citizens can legally register to vote when conducting their business at a DPS office, why would they need a second opportunity to register with a booth outside? My office is investigating every credible report we receive regarding potential criminal activity that could compromise the integrity of our elections. The Biden-Harris Administration has intentionally...

Trump has accused Kamala Harris of being “low IQ.”1 That’s quite an accusation, so let’s look at the evidence. Once, Kamala Harris was invited to give a TED Talk. That doesn’t sound like something that would happen to a stupid person.Then again, the topic of her TED Talk was on the proper way to heat up a Cup O’ Noodles and she kept calling everyone in the room “Ted,” and if they said Ted wasn’t their name, she made them leave since this was only a talk for Teds. She also recently made an entire economic plan. That doesn’t sound...

The Manhattan pizzeria worker mauled by an irate customer’s pit bull during a savage Monday beatdown is still comatose and hooked to a respirator — as a judge hit his alleged attacker with a hefty bail during his Wednesday arraignment. Manhattan prosecutors asked that Tyshaun Watson, a National Guard member and hospitality worker from Secaucus, New Jersey, be held on $250,000 cash/$500,000 insurance or partially secured bond for his alleged crimes against Zakaira El Sherief, which include second-degree attempted murder. Judge Simiyon Haniff granted the request, but added that he was surprised prosecutors wanted any bail at all.

The COVID-19 pandemic is proving to be a powerful driver of change. It is spurring biodigital innovations such as nearly real-time biosurveillance of virus spread and mutations; virus tracking via smartphone; and messenger ribonucleic acid (mRNA) vaccine development at unprecedented speed. Biodigital convergence, the merging of biological systems and digital technologies, is challenging the way we understand ourselves and the world in which we live.

Missing UK tech billionaire Mike Lynch’s associate Stephen Chamberlain, who stood trial for fraud alongside him after the sale of software company Autonomy, died just days before the entrepreneur vanished in a shipwreck off the coast of Sicily. Chamberlain was out for a run in Cambridgeshire, England, on Saturday when he was struck by a vehicle and died after being rushed to a nearby hospital. Chamberlain and Lynch, who remains missing after a yacht he was on with his wife and 18-year-old daughter sank Monday, were co-defendants in the decade-long fraud case that arose after the $11 billion sale to...

Pay Attention. In 2020 President Trump won more votes than any sitting president in US history. Trump increased his vote totals by 12 million votes in 2020 over his first presidential victory in 2016. Trump won 16 of 17 bellwether counties and allegedly lost the election. Something that had never happened in 36 years. Trump won the bellwether states, Ohio, Florida, and Iowa handily, something EVERY winning candidate has accomplished since 1960. Biden won the fewest number of counties in the 2020 election by any alleged “winner” in history – winning only 16% of all US counties. In this same...

44 delegates voted “present” during the Democratic National Convention’s (DNC) symbolic roll call vote, according to a Daily Caller review. The vote, a symbolic gesture after the Democrats officially nominated Harris as their candidate with a virtual roll call in early August, highlighted the party’s divide over the contentious Israel/Palestine issue. Likely among the 44 present votes were the 30 delegate members of the “Uncommitted” protest movement. They say they “feel deeply hurt and betrayed by the President’s decisions to continue funding war crimes and the mass killing of Palestinians,” according to their website. Some members of the Uncommitted movement...
