Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), and Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) at its convention in Chicago.

Harris grew up in the poshest neighborhood, which, at the time she lived there, was not only the nicest neighborhood in Montreal but was the richest one in all of Canada — far from the struggle of the "streets" Harris now purports to have been down with. According to an op-ed that her best friend from her time at Westmount High School penned, Harris lived with her mother and sister Maya on Grosvenor Avenue in a Victorian home. As her friend explains, Harris enjoyed "family dinners and a stable life." This is the street Harris grew up on. These homes...

Kamala Harris will be better for Wall Street investors because she will import more low-wage legal and illegal migrants from around the world, according to Goldman Sachs, a New York investment firm. The choice was admitted in a September 3 report, titled “The Election and the Economy: Estimating Immigration, trade and Fiscal Effects”: If Harris wins, we expect that net immigration will continue [at] 1.5mn [million] per year, somewhat above the pre-pandemic trend of 1mn [legal immigrants]. If Trump wins with divided government, we expect net immigration will fall to 1.25mn. If Republicans sweep, Congress could increase enforcement resources, and...

Kamala Harris. Donald Trump. Gish Gallop. All three are expected at Tuesday’s presidential debate, even if most of America is unfamiliar with one name in that lineup. GG, as I’ve now come to call it, is a shell game/debate tactic that takes its name from Duane Gish, a prominent figure in the creationist movement who deployed dubious arguments, selective factoids, and rapid-fire lies to overwhelm his opponents in public discussions about the theory of evolution. The disinformation technique, coined Gish Gallop in 1994 by the National Center for Science Education’s founding director Eugenie Scott, is essentially the art of burying...

Somewhere around 2000, there was a short clip of Bill Clinton with a couple of female reporters on an airplane, I assume AF 1, and he was video'd touching or rubbing a reporter's leg . . . maybe higher.I KNOW I saw it, but (of course) I can't find it now.

When families were restricted to having only one child, many opted to keep male children, who are traditionally expected to be the main caregivers for their families, and give up females for adoption

The U.S. economy hemorrhaged manufacturing jobs in August despite the Biden administration’s attempt to boost the industry with hundreds of billions of dollars in subsidies. The number of people employed in manufacturing in the U.S. fell by 24,000 in August, with the industry down 14,000 jobs year-over-year... Altogether, manufacturing employment has grown just 0.3% ... “All of the Biden-Harris administration claims on job creation are essentially false,” Peter Earle, a senior economist at the American Institute for Economic Research, told the DCNF. “Most of the rise in employment they are taking responsibility for are actually just jobs slowing returning after...

US Secretary of Defence Lloyd Austin has side-stepped Ukraine's demands to be allowed to use US longer-range weapons against targets in Russia."I don't believe that one specific capability is going to be decisive," said Austin at the conclusion of the Ukraine Contact Group at Ramstein Air Base in Germany.The current battlefield showed that Russia had moved certain aircraft using glide bombs out of range of US ATACMS missiles, he said.When asked by a journalist whether Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky had said that there were strategic targets in Russia that could be hit with longer-range weapons, Austin responded evasively.There are many...

A Montana county declared the wrong winner in a race after overcounting votes. During a post-canvassing audit of the Butte-Silver Bow County primary that was held in June, election officials suspected an overcount of more than 1,000 ballots, prompting a judge to order a recount.
