  • Chuck Todd: Will Biden cost Harris the election?

    NBC News | Comcast ^ | October 16, 2024 | By Chuck Todd (D-NBC)
    For a country that seems evenly divided over politics and polarized about many cultural issues, a durable majority does agree about one thing: They don’t like the Biden presidency. And despite the machinations that resulted in President Joe Biden’s not being on the ballot this election season, his unpopularity is still the mood music of this election. From his border policy to the economy he has been presiding over to turmoil overseas, there isn’t a lot about the Biden years that voters love in this moment. It’s why former President Donald Trump has basically a 50-50 chance to return to...

    Life is good in America as long as you’re able to keep sleep-walking through life, cocooning yourself in political fantasies that depict a world in which your party is always right and everyone else is wrong, and distracting yourself with bread-and-circus entertainment that bears no resemblance to reality. Life is good in America as long as you don’t mind being made to pay through the nose for the government’s endless wars, subsidization of foreign nations, bloated workforce, secret agencies, fusion centers, private prisons, biometric databases, invasive technologies, arsenal of weapons, and every other budgetary line item that is contributing to...

    Jorgenys Robertson Cova is an illegal alien from Venezuela who entered the U.S. two years ago.. Authorities have arrested a confirmed Tren de Aragua gang member, after he allegedly recruited students from two Houston middle schools to join the Venezuelan gang. According to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, Jorgenys Robertson Cova—an illegal alien from Venezuela—entered the United States two years ago. Cova is suspected to have recruited students from Jane Long Academy and Las Americas—both of which are located in the Houston Independent School District. He was arrested last week after being wanted in Pearland for theft and was accused...

    Pacific Gas and Electric warned Tuesday it could cut power in five Bay Area counties beginning on Thursday due to dry and windy weather conditions that could heighten the wildfire risk across that state, according to the utility's website. In all, 30 California counties could face Public Safety Power Shutoffs from Thursday through Sunday, including Alameda, Contra Costa, Napa, Solano and Sonoma counties in the Bay Area. Thursday into Saturday, a storm system known as an “inside slider” is expected to impact California. Unlike weather systems that come off the Pacific Ocean, this system is expected to track across inland...

    Uncle Sam infected by a different strain of “long Covid”... As the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) carries out widely-criticized responses to Hurricanes Helene and Milton, officials say the agency’s Disaster Recovery Fund is incapable of handling a third major storm. While some are circulating false accusations that disaster funds have been diverted to immigrants or poured into the proxy war in Ukraine, a review of the agency’s 2024 outlays reveals a different, ongoing drain on FEMA’s coffers: Long after the end of the declared Covid-19 emergency, FEMA is still pumping out billions of dollars to pay for pandemic expenses...

    Grand Rapids, Michigan, has lost a tray of absentee ballots, City Clerk Joel Hondorp told The Federalist. The city is investigating but does not yet know where the ballots went. “Voters were calling, saying, ‘Hey, we didn’t receive our ballots,’” Hondorp said. “There’s a tray of ballots that were set to be mailed out. Looks like it may have got to the post office, we’re trying to figure out where the disconnect is.” A tray holds close to 300 ballots, according to Hondorp. His office is working with the United States Postal Service to investigate at what point the tray...

    RealClear Investigations ^ | 16 Oct, 2024 | John R. Lott Jr.
    When the FBI originally released the “final” crime data for 2022 in September 2023, it reported that the nation’s violent crime rate fell by 2.1%. This quickly became, and remains, a Democratic Party talking point to counter Donald Trump’s claims of soaring crime. But the FBI has quietly revised those numbers, releasing new data that shows violent crime increased in 2022 by 4.5%. The new data includes thousands more murders, rapes, robberies, and aggravated assaults. The Bureau – which has been at the center of partisan storms – made no mention of these revisions in its September 2024 press release....

    Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on Wednesday unveiled his long-awaited Victory Plan to end Russia's invasion, rejecting any territorial concessions and urging ramped-up Western backing, including an invitation to join NATO. After pushing back Russian troops at the start of the invasion in February 2022, Kyiv is now facing mounting pressure to find an exit strategy as its troops suffer battlefield losses and Moscow intensifies its strikes on infrastructure. Russia has seized around a fifth of Ukraine's territory since the invasion began, reducing towns and cities to rubble and killing thousands of civilians.

    It’s election season in America, and that means early voting, absentee ballots, and making sure your voter registration is current. It’s also a test of how well each state maintains its voter rolls, its election systems, and the ways each state assures its elections are conducted and counted fairly. A new report from the Government Accountability Institute (GAI) counts at least fifty threats to election integrity. The report, just out this week, categorizes fifty different threats to election integrity according to whether they concern the influence of “dark money,” lawfare operations, voter fraud, or election fraud. ​The report documents examples...

    The competition garnered criticism for allowing trans women to compete in the women's category. A British woman defeated her trans-identified biological male opponent in the UK Mini Series pool championships on Sunday, declaring victory over the man after making a "phenomenal comeback" near the end of the match. Welsh player Kristy-Lee Davies defeated Harriet Haynes, a trans-identified male formerly named Chris, in the Ultimate Pool group mini-series championships on Oct. 13. The competition garnered criticism for allowing trans-identified males to compete in the women's category. Further controversy erupted when the only two biological male contestants who entered the competition squared...

    As we wrap up another intense election cycle, it’s always telling to see who’s still got the energy and who’s running on fumes when it matters most. And as 2024 winds down, it’s clear who’s in control. President Trump and JD Vance are soaring, while Kamala Harris and Tim Walz are barely catching their breath. This is a man who’s excited and ready to save America and make her great again. MANY VIDEOS AT LINK..................... While Trump storms through the blue strongholds, Kamala is nowhere to be found, and meanwhile, Barry’s out there lecturing black men, treating them like misogynistic...
  • Gay VOICE is a thing: You can tell a man is homosexual from the way they talk, say scientists

    High pitched, extended vowels and incredibly articulated: so-called 'gay voice' is a real phenomenon, researchers say. Two science YouTubers have scoured studies behind the theory that homosexual men have a unique twang that transcends aspects like culture and upbringing. Mitch Moffit, a biologist, and Greg Brown, a science teacher — who are both gay — explored what exactly constitutes a 'gay voice' and what might cause it... They found that analysis comparing the pitch of straight and homosexual men's voices found key differences in how they speak. Mr Moffit explained: 'Results find that gay men speak with higher pitch variation...

    American Thinker ^ | 15 Oct, 2024 | Olivia Murray
    According to boots-on-the-ground rescuers, human-trafficking is one of America’s “fastest-growing enterprises” in the U.S., and with the ascension of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, the industry hit a fever pitch. Madeleine Rowley’s new report at The Free Press offers a devastating look into what life looks like for countless individuals, mostly illegal migrant females, as they’re sold into the sex trade, run largely by foreign criminal cartels. Per Rowley: Many traffickers are members of Mexican or Salvadorian gangs, part of Cuban rings or the vicious Venezuelan group Tren de Aragua. Their modus operandi is luring migrant women and girls across...

    ATLANTA -- A judge has blocked a new rule that requires Georgia Election Day ballots to be counted by hand after the close of voting. The ruling came a day after the same judge ruled that county election officials must certify election results by the deadline set in law. The rulings are victories for Democrats, liberal voting rights groups and some legal experts who have raised concerns that Donald Trump’s allies could refuse to certify the results if the former president loses to Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris in next month’s presidential election. They have also argued that new rules...
