Julie Kelly 🇺🇸 @julie_kelly2 A Harris DOJ could be more terrifying and destructive than the Biden/Garland/Monaco DOJ. Why? Harris' likely pick for attorney general is DC US Attorney Matthew Graves. I explain why here:

Normal Fire Department (NPD) crews battled a blaze at the Rivian plant parking lot Saturday night. NFD spokesperson Matt Swaney said fire crews were called to Rivian’s Normal plant just before 9:45 p.m. for a reported vehicle fire. He said there is an unspecified number of vehicles damaged by the incident. Witnesses outside the plant said they reportedly saw the fire as early as 9:50 p.m. The EV assembly plant was not affected by the fire, Swaney said.

Belarus' Armed Forces are "concentrating a significant number of personnel" as well as weaponry along Ukraine's northern border with Belarus "under the guise of exercises," Ukraine's Foreign Ministry warned on Aug. 25, citing information gathered by the country's intelligence sources. Minsk is concentrating Special Operation Forces, as well as weaponry, including tanks, artillery, multiple-launch rocket systems (MLRS), air defense systems, and engineering equipment near the Belarussian city of Gomel, a statement released by the Foreign Ministry said. The city lies within about 30 kilometers of the Belarus-Ukraine border.

X owner Elon Musk’s plan to move the social media platform’s headquarters out of San Francisco has some city officials eager to bid farewell to the billionaire’s business. The outlet noted that San Francisco Mayor London Breed said she had met with Musk “several months ago” but that she didn’t extend offers aimed at keeping X in the city, saying, “I’m not going to beg anybody.” The report comes after Musk announced last month that he will move the company’s headquarters to Texas in response to a new law enacted by the state of California that prohibits schools from notifying...

A real bombshell blockbuster. ☺

One month following the near-assassination of President Trump, elected Democrats still seem to have a fascination with violent words. Senator Cory Booker (D-NJ) appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union” with host Jake Tapper. He boasted that Democrats could finally “kill the MAGA Strain” of the Republican Party by voting to elect Kamala Harris in November. “What I know this election can do is finally kill that (MAGA) strain of the Republican Party,” Booker told Tapper. The host did not attempt to push back on Booker’s comment.

Opinion The American military-industrial complex, coined by President Eisenhower in 1961, has shaped US foreign policy and military strategy while perpetuating global conflicts The American military-industrial complex, a term popularized by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in his farewell address in 1961, refers to the synergistic relationship between a nation's armed forces, its defence industry, and its political establishment. This complex has played a pivotal role in shaping U.S. foreign policy and military strategy, leading to extensive global influence and numerous conflicts over the past century. While wars undoubtedly bring immense destruction and suffering, they have also generated substantial profits for...

Rep. Dean Phillips (D-Minn.), the sole Democrat who dared to challenge President Biden during the tumultuous 2024 Democratic primary, has expressed a willingness to serve in either a Democrat or Republican administration. Earlier this year, The Gateway Pundit reported that Phillips told the story of how he recently went to his first Trump rally. He was amazed at how friendly and diverse the crowd was. “I’ve got to tell you guys; I went to a Donald Trump rally a couple of nights ago. Never been to one. I had an event across the street. I saw the line of people...

Explanation: Do underground oceans vent through canyons on Saturn's moon Enceladus? Long features dubbed tiger stripes are known to be spewing ice from the moon's icy interior into space, creating a cloud of fine ice particles over the moon's South Pole and creating Saturn's mysterious E-ring. Evidence for this has come from the robot Cassini spacecraft that orbited Saturn from 2004 to 2017. Pictured here, a high resolution image of Enceladus is shown from a close flyby. The unusual surface features dubbed tiger stripes are visible in false-color blue. Why Enceladus is active remains a mystery, as the neighboring moon...

Multiple Democrat lawmakers are quietly telling allies worried about Vice President Kamala Harris’s controversial grocery price-control plan that the proposal will die in Congress, Politico revealed. After economists pushed back on Harris’s “Soviet-style” plan to centrally administer price controls on food in her first policy-focused speech on August 16, one anonymous Democrat told the outlet that it was a “lofty goal.” “I honestly still don’t know how this would work,” a second lawmaker said.

Two days after RFK Jr. declared a "Unity Party" with Donald Trump, the White House has pulled his Secret Service. Kennedy is still on the ballot in 40 out of 50 states. He did NOT drop out of the race. Now, after partnering with Trump, Kennedy is a major target. The empire is deliberately putting him in danger. Regardless of where your vote lies, this man deserves protection for the bravery he has shown. Share this!

RFK Jr tells Shannon Bream that President Trump is preparing to make a series of announcements that other Democrats are about to join his campaign. The Unity Party to defeat the Democrat oligarchs is underway.

First, the transfer of power happens on January 20 not January 6. (And DOJ let off the hook hundreds of 2017 inaugural rioters.) Second, there is no law guaranteeing the "peaceful transfer of power." Which is why the Constitution provides several weeks between election day and inauguration day with both a state and congressional certification process and opportunities to contest the results. Third, as he brags about the nearly 1,500 J6ers arrested and charged so far for January 6--including at least seven last week during the DNC--most face misdemeanors.

Homeland Security’s citizenship agency has put out a call for volunteers who can help process applications for a fraud-plagued program that allows unauthorized migrants from some Latin American nations to skip the border and fly directly into the U.S. The program has welcomed more than half a million migrants who lack a legal visa to enter the U.S. It was abruptly paused several weeks ago after an internal review found massive fraud, but the call for volunteers suggests U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services is looking for a quick restart. In the email call for volunteers Donna Campagnolo, USCIS’s chief human...

Senator Bernie Sanders (I-VT) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that the United States has a “crisis at the border” that needed to be addressed by immigration reform. Host Jonathan Karl said, “On immigration, when Harris ran for the Democratic nomination against you and others in 2020, she said she favored decriminalizing illegal border crossing. She even suggested she would be in favor of abolishing ICE. Now, of course, she’s taking, at least rhetorically, a much tougher line on border security.”

Vice President Kamala Harris is “a completely different person than the one most of us had fixed in our mind” and is more than a “female Obama,” according to a glowing portrayal in the New Republic that suggests Harris even surpasses historical Democrat icon former President John F. Kennedy in significance.In a Friday essay, the far-left magazine heaped praise upon presidential hopeful Kamala Harris, positioning her as a transformative figure who unexpectedly unified the Democratic Party following her DNC speech accepting the party’s nomination without having received a single vote.

Singer Chappell Roan is calling out what she describes as “predatory” behavior from fans, asking them to respect her boundaries in public after delivering a similar message in videos last week. The “Good Luck, Babe!” singer opened up in an Instagram post on Friday. “I've been in too many nonconsensual physical and social interactions,” wrote Roan, whose debut album “The Rise and Fall of a Midwest Princess” rose to meteoric popularity this year. “I chose this career path because I love music and art and honoring my inner child, I do not accept harassment of any kind because I chose...
