And on Donald Trump’s side? Which past Republican presidents, vice presidents and nominees are lining up behind him? We didn’t see any of them speak in support of him at the GOP convention in July, but surely they’re out there. Here, presented for the first time, is an exhaustive list of the previous Republican presidents, vice presidents and nominees to these posts who have publicly said they will be voting for Trump in November: 1. Sarah Palin. That’s it. That’s the whole list. The 2008 Republican vice presidential nominee reaffirmed her support for Trump in March 2023. Former Republican presidential...

“The View” co-host Sara Haines said on Monday that Republican nominee Donald Trump is showing he “cares” about young voters by appearing on several podcasts that are popular with the demographic. Haines said Trump’s “podcast tour” is reaching massive audiences of young voters who do not watch traditional media, which she argued will have a positive effect for the former president. Vice President Kamala Harris, who has come under fire for her lack of media appearances, sat down with CNN host Dana Bash on Aug. 29 for her first and only sit-down interview one month after launching her presidential campaign....

The Atlantic just made history for an unexpected distinction: The longest stretch without a single late-summer cyclone. It has meteorologists concerned delicate public trust is at risk.

In one of the dirtiest hit pieces in modern times, Democrats and their legacy media attacked and lied about President Donald Trump’s visit to Arlington Cemetery in August to commemorate the 13 US soldiers and Marines who were murdered by a suicide bomber at the Kabul Airport. The killer was let out of prison after Joe Biden and Kamala Harris abandoned Bagram Air Base in Afghanistan in the summer of 2021. Joe Biden and Kamala Harris did not bother to attend the ceremony even though they were invited. Joe was on vacation. Kamala and Tampon Tim were out campaigning somewhere....

The latest Harvard-Harris poll shows more slippage for incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris in the national polling.

This is HUGEAmericans can now invest in election outcomesNot only are these money markets more accurate than rigged polls, but now there is a MUCH stronger legal framework to file lawsuits against election fraudIf someone loses millions b/c of a rigged election, courts will hear their case like they would any securities fraud caseNo more BS dismissals based on “lack of standing” like we saw in 2020 - they have a direct financial loss/damage from the rigged electionThere’s a reason Biden tried to keep this illegal as long as possible but the courts overruled himHuge. Just huge.

There have been recent reports of pet cats injured, or worse, in the Ithaca area, with animal predation one of the possible causes, and pet welfare experts suggest keeping cats indoors will help keep them safe, from foxes or coyotes or birds of prey, among other risks of harm. “It’s extremely difficult to tell” what harmed or killed a particular cat without witnessing an incident, says Dr. Bruce Kornreich, the director of the Cornell Feline Health Center and a cardiologist in the Department of Clinical Sciences at Cornell University’s College of Veterinary Medicine. He’s skeptical of anecdotal reports that cats...

Rumble, the leading free speech platform, has been banned in Brazil, marking a new and alarming attack on freedom of information. Rumble CEO Chris Pavlovski issued a strong message to users, warning of increasing restrictions in several countries around the world.In a recent statement, Pavlovski announced that Rumble is no longer available to citizens of Brazil, joining other countries such as France, Russia and China where access to the platform has been blocked. This move comes following the actions of Judge Alexandre de Moraes of Brazil’s Federal Supreme Court, who has been accused of leading a frontal attack on freedom...

Democrats believe Vice President Kamala Harris must admit to the failures of the Biden-Harris administration to survive exposure during Tuesday’s debate as the status quo candidate of the past three and a half years. Harris has clear vulnerabilities as the vice president: She cannot campaign on policies to fix crime, inflation, and border security without undermining the Biden-Harris administration’s policies, but she must tout the administration’s policies to validate her record and candidacy. “The debate will pose a challenge for Ms. Harris, who will have to decide how much to embrace or distance herself from President Biden and his policies...

Tommy Robinson returning to Albion, organizing peaceful demonstration in front of 10 Downing against Two-tier Keir. Lots of leftist and Islamist counter-demos planned, maybe peaceful, probably only "mostly". Warrant may be issued for TR's arrest for contempt of court. Lots of Drama. Recorded speech by Tommy.

There are four reasons why the coming year could be the year the Ukraine war ends—and plenty of reasons why it might continue for the foreseeable future. Principal among these is the huge gap between Putin and Zelensky on potential terms. The factors favoring an end to the war appear to be gaining. What are these factors? First, there is Ukraine’s brilliant and bold military move into Russia in the Kursk region.

The government’s delivery of roughly 20,000 migrants to Springfield, Ohio, has been a boon for real estate, local employers, auto salesmen, merchants, and the migrants — but also an unwanted shock to locals as they try to manage their own community. The damage was displayed at the August 27 city commission meeting where voters presented their concerns about the migrants. “Maybe we should open up go-kart land again so that people can have a chance to learn how to drive without being on these public streets,” long-time resident Jeffrey Allen told the mayor and four other commissioners.

WARSAW, Poland (AP) – Poland´s security officials said Monday they have foiled cyberattacks and online blackmail attempts by groups acting for Russian and Belarusian services. Poland has registered up to 1,000 online attacks daily targeting government institutions and agencies, officials said, linking them to the country’s support for neighboring Ukraine in its 2 1/2-year war against Russia’s invasion. The group that was broken up was seeking access to information in state and individual companies with the goal of blackmailing them, said Digital Affairs Minister Krzysztof Gawkowski. He said that in the first half of 2024, more than 400,000 attempted or...

MSNBC host Joe Scarborough said Monday on “Morning Joe” that former President Donald Trump’s supporters “deliberately choose lies” by believing the 2020 election had problems. Scarborough said, “You know, Donald Trump’s own staff members watched in 2020, and do you know what they said? The persons who are in charge of actually watching the election, that Donald Trump put in charge Chris Krebs said it was the cleanest, fairest election on record.” He continued, “People go, I don’t know what to believe because Donald Trump says this, but then I turn on this cable news channel that’s lying for 24...

JAG Writes: The good news is that the Lord Jesus has already legally defeated Evil. He has already legally defeated Evil in The Courts of Heaven and the net results of His victory is that His Christian Church is now in the gradual incremental process of making disciples of all the nations. The Lord Jesus said that He would build His Christian Church and that the Gates Of Evil will not prevail against His Christian Church. So? So we Christians build our Christian Eschatology NOT on the current newspapers but rather we build our view of the future based on...

As far as I can understand, it looks like NJ's sales tax on precious metal purchases will be going away. Last year, the bill passed both houses, but the governor failed to either veto or sign within 45 days -- and because this happened at the end of a legislative session, it automatically became a "pocket veto." The bill was reintroduced, again passed both houses (on June 28), and the governor once again took no action within 45 days. However, because it was not the end of a legislative session, the bill should automatically pass and become law (according to...

"As far as a peaceful settlement of the conflict in Ukraine is concerned, no tangible contours have yet emerged," Peskov said in Moscow.Russia has heard chatter and statements about negotiations from various European leaders, "but we are not hearing anything from the country that is steering this process, that is directing the collective West,"...

Retail stores are fleeing San Francisco in droves as the California city collapses under the weight of rampant crime and theft. And rather than deal with the crime problem, city leaders instead want to punish the stores trying to leave. The so-called “Grocery Protection Act,” introduced by city Board of Supervisors member Dean Preston (Democratic Socialist), says stores that try to leave San Francisco would have to provide the city with six months’ notice, allowing city leaders time to look for a replacement retail tenant. This bill was introduced not long after Whole Foods Market closed down its flagship San...
