WASHINGTON, D.C. — Insiders within the party that just had its candidate endorsed by Vladimir Putin and Dick Cheney report that its voters are starting to wonder if perhaps they took a wrong turn somewhere. According to a top-ranking official in the DNC who spoke on condition of anonymity, Kamala's recent endorsements have left insiders a bit unsettled. "I mean, Dick Cheney? Seriously?" said the woman. "I'm really starting to question where we might have gone astray. So far, we have the support of Iran, Hamas, Putin, and Dick Cheney. That is...not a great list." Democrat strategists are reportedly working...

Kamala Harris: "I come from a long line of tough trailblazing and phenomenal women my grandmother uh would go into villages in India um and um because she was Indian and lived in India and she would go to the villages in India um it was a famous story in our family my grandfather would she was going to be the end of his career but my grandmother would go into the villages with a bullhorn talking with the women about the need to have access to reproductive Health Care"

Former South Carolina Gov. Nikki Haley on Sunday’s broadcast of CBS’s “Face the Nation” said if she thought fomer Presdent Donald Trump was a “great” candidate she would not have run for president. Partial transcript as follows: MARGARET BRENNAN: You said you’re on standby. In other words, you haven’t been asked to campaign. Are you advising at all on his debate preparation or speaking to the campaign? HALEY: I’m not and you know, that’s his choice. He can, you know, whatever he decides to do with his campaign, he can do that. But when I called him back in June,...

Bernie Sanders has said the quiet part out loud on Kamala Harris’s flip-flopping on key issues, confirming what many Americans have known all along: Kamala is not abandoning her far-left, socialist ideals but is simply pretending to be moderate to win the election. During an appearance on Meet the Press, Senator Sanders was asked by Kristen Welker about Harris’s flip-flopping on key issues like Medicare for All, fracking, border wall, and others. Sanders openly declared that Harris is not abandoning her ideals, but rather masking them to appeal to a broader audience in the hopes of winning over moderate voters....

Premiumization, another way of saying steadily rising retail prices, has been a feature of the bourbon market over the last decade. Notwithstanding ever-rising bourbon prices, however, there are still outstanding bourbons that retail for extremely attractive prices. Below is a list, along with tasting notes, of ten heavily medaled bourbons that have consistently won in international spirit competitions and still retail on average for around $35 or less. The indicated price is the national retail average and will vary by state.

VIDEOYeah, Donald Trump is really worried about the supposedly fantastic good looks of Kamala Harris which could help her in winning the September 10 debate between them according to an "Inside Politics" panelist at CNN. Right now Kamala has at least two people helping her: Mr. Jack Daniels and Mr. Jim Beam. The only question is how much help Kamala is now taking from these two aides. Don't worry, Kamala. According to the CNN panelist it doesn't really matter what you say no matter how incoherent it may be. What really counts is your looks which will overwhelm everything else.

(May 5, 2024) — INTRODUCTION It is frequently argued by opponents of the “two-citizen parents” requirement of Emer de Vattel’s definition of a “natural born Citizen” (“nbC”) found in Book 1, Ch. 19, § 212 of The Law of Nations (1758), that the requirement “is nonsense.” Indeed, the 2015 article purporting to “resolve” the meaning of the nbC term (“C&K article”) by former high officials in the Department of Justice – Solicitor General Paul Clement and Acting Solicitor General Neal Katyal – completely rejects the relevance of the de Vattel nbC definition by ignoring any discussion of de Vattel or...

There's a lot of discussion these days about Capitalism versus Socialism as an economic system. Most Democrats, including Harris and other left-leaning people, favor Socialism. The key tool for them to bring this about is to tax the rich and give it to the poor to even out the distribution of income. That is a flawed solution to the problem. First, it assumes that an equal distribution of income is a desirable goal. It is not. It's the human condition to want to improve one's lot in life. If the gov't makes everyone's income the same, it removes the desire...

A Colorado landlord has agreed to sell a troubled apartment complex that was taken over by the violent Venezuelan migrant gang Tren de Aragua. Landlord Zev Baumgarten has been fighting with the Denver suburb of Aurora over the Aspen Grove after the city accused him of allowed it to become a trash-ridden, gang-infested hellhole, according to records obtained by the Denver Gazette. Baumgarten is also the owner of another apartment complex where a viral video showed a crew of gun-toting thugs breaking into a unit, according to the Gazette. Baumgarten’s company has now agreed to sell, lease, or find some...

The prime minister has told the BBC his new government is "going to have to be unpopular" as he defended his "tough" decision to cut winter fuel payments. Speaking on Sunday with Laura Kuenssberg in his first major interview in Downing Street, Sir Keir Starmer said he was determined to deliver change but this meant having to "do the difficult things now". Challenged on his plan to remove winter fuel payments from most pensioners while also awarding above inflation pay rises to some public sector workers, he said he was "fixing the foundations" and those in need would still get...

Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign tried to blame her and President Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan on former President Donald Trump — even though it happened seven months after he left office. The Harris-Walz campaign released a statement Friday that claimed, “Trump left the Biden-Harris Administration with zero plans for an orderly withdrawal — only a dangerous, costly mess.” Trump had begun negotiations with the Taliban and reached a deal, but it had not been completed by the time he left office in January 2020. Biden — against the advice of his military advisers — decided to withdraw...

X-ray specs and invisibility cloaks are the stuff of sci-fi and fantasy, but sometimes science is just stranger than fiction. A food dye that helps give certain sodas and snacks their hallmark orange hue renders mouse skin almost completely see-through in a reversible, potentially non-toxic research method that could transform medical and scientific imaging. Because of a counterintuitive fundamental physics principle, Tartrazine, also known as Yellow 5, can temporarily turn biological tissue transparent to the naked eye, as described in a study published September 5 in the journal Science. So far, the scientists behind the new discovery have used the...

Kamala Harris' team is getting 'nervous' ahead of her showdown with Donald Trump according to sources close to her campaign. Insiders, including a campaign strategist, reportedly told BBC US Special Correspondent Katty Kay of their concerns in a series of frantic texts and phone calls. 'I'm picking up quite a lot of nervousness by the way on the state of the race,' Kay said during an episode of The Rest is Politics: US podcast.

Democrats are facing an unfriendly map to hold their Senate majority come November, but they are defiant that they can keep control of the chamber despite Republicans having an advantage in several key states. Currently, Democrats hold a slim 51-seat majority in the Senate thanks to 47 Senate Democrats and four Independents who caucus with them. Senate Republicans are not far behind, holding 49 seats. If Democrats lose any seat they currently hold without picking up any, they are expected to slip to below 50 seats and forfeit the coveted majority.

Nikki Haley says that she is willing to step-up to help Donald Trump if he wants to tap her assistance despite their up-and-down past. Haley was the final woman standing against Trump in the 2024 primary election with a crowded field of Republicans seeking to oust the former president for a chance at the White House. She often spoke out against Trump and aired her grievances and disagreements. But before that, Haley served for nearly two years as Trump's Ambassador to the United Nations from January 2017 through December 2018.

Former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) claimed Sunday on ABC “This Week” that Vice President Kamala Harris gave a speech at the Democratic National Convention the former Ronald Reagan could have given. Cheney said, “If you look at Vice President Harris’ Speech for example, at the Democratic Convention, it is a speech that Ronald Reagan could have given. It is a speech that George Bush could have given. It’s very much an embrace and an understanding of the exceptional nature of this great nation, a love of America, a recognition that America is a special place, a recognition that we all...

“We proved that the Einstein field equation from general relativity is actually a relativistic quantum mechanical equation,” the researchers note in their study. In simple words, this new framework connects the science that governs the macroscopic world with that of the microscopic world. Therefore, it has the potential to explain every physical phenomenon known to humanity ranging from the mysterious dark matter in space to the photons emitted by your phone’s flashlight. “To date, no globally accepted theory has been proposed to explain all physical observations,” the researchers added. They claim that their theory can challenge the foundations of physics...

Senator Tom Cotton (R-AR) said Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union” that former Vice President Dick Cheney endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris because former President Donald Trump endorsed Rep. Harriet Hageman (R-WY), who beat an incumbent Liz Cheney. Host Dana Bash said, “I want to start with some of the endorsements that Kamala Harris got this week, particularly from former Congresswoman Liz Cheney and her father, the former Republican Vice President Dick Cheney.”
