Border patrol agents are threatening to leave the critical federal agency in droves if Vice President Kamala Harris wins in November — with multiple agents telling The Post that they can’t face four more years of being undermined and scapegoated, the New York Post is reporting. ‘I’m not doing this s–t again … four years of hell,’ said one agent, who is nowhere near retirement. Another agent said: ‘Lots of guys who can retire will go. If Trump wins, they’ll stay.’ The Border Patrol has suffered massive turnover and plummeting morale under the Biden-Harris administration, insiders say. The Democrat party...

A word-wrestling confrontation that marked the end of Bret Baier’s Fox News interview with Kamala Harris was cut short by her staff, Baier said after the interview. Baier was pressing Harris about her position on the Middle East as he indicated he was being told that the interview had reached its end. “They’re giving me a hard wrap here,” Baier said at the end of the testy exchange with Harris, ... “I’m talking to like four people, waving their hands like, ‘It’s gotta stop!” Baier said ... “I had to dismount there, at the end,” he said. ... The ending...

Kamala Harris sat for an interview by Bret Baier for Special Report on Fox News yesterday. I have posted the video below. Baier was, well, loaded for bear. I thought he did an excellent job within the time allowed. I have just a few thoughts and observations. This was Harris’s first interview on Fox News. I take it that her appearance in this venue is a sign that her campaign is not going altogether swimmingly. The interview was something of a calculated risk. Harris’s handlers have heretofore kept her from close encounters of the Fox News kind. They know she...

One of the people Vice President Kamala Harris might want to thank in her victory speech, if she wins the election, is Fox News anchor Bret Baier. His combative interview Wednesday gave Harris the chance to display qualities — and present facts — that Donald Trump desperately wants to keep hidden from the network’s millions of viewers.Don’t take it from me; take it from Baier himself. He said afterward that he thought Harris came to the interview seeking “a viral moment” and added: “I think she may have gotten that.”Baier was surely referring to the exchange about Trump’s repeated threat...

Warning: graphic content An Israeli drone captured Hamas chief Yahya Sinwar’s last minutes alive — as the Oct. 7 mastermind swung a piece of wood in a futile attempt to take out the device before he was killed, officials said. Shocking footage shows the moment a drone is deployed to check a building in Rafah that a group of IDF soldiers hit on Thursday. An injured Sinwar, who had his face covered, could be seen sitting alone on a coach in the destroyed building, with the IDF soldiers unaware that they were seeing the very man they had been hunting...

Representative James Clyburn (D-SC) said Thursday on CNN’s “The Lead” that Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris should hold more town hall meetings to interact with voters. Host Jake Tapper said, “Do you think that she should be doing more rallies? I covered Obama in 2008, as you might remember, I would often interview you when I was covering that campaign and at this point, she’s doing two rallies today. But generally speaking, comparing her rally schedule in October to his rallies schedule in October 2008 he did more. Now, maybe we’re in a new era, maybe 2024 you...

I could tell within 30 seconds that the Harris-Walz campaign was going to regret having Kamala do an interview on Fox News. Frankly, based on what we know now, they were clearly regretting the decision before the interview started. As we reported last night, Bret Baier revealed that the Harris campaign conspicuously showed up late for the interview and then desperately tried to end it early. Naturally, Harris allies in the media have been trying hard to spin the interview as a positive for her, but the real reason you can tell that Kamala's supporters know the interview was a...

The new Italian law restricting overseas travel for surrogacy services goes further than other countries, but same-sex couples face family planning hurdles across Europe. A new law that bans Italians from travelling abroad for surrogate pregnancies is expected to make it harder for LGBTQ people to become parents – but Italy is far from the only country where family planning is a challenge for same-sex couples. Italy’s restrictive approach to surrogacy isn’t new – or unique. Many European countries ban surrogacy outright, while others have strict rules about citizenship, payment, and relationship status. Those rules have prompted some couples to...

Presidential historian Allan Lichtman believes the current polls showing Vice President Kamala Harris sliding against former President Donald Trump are “underestimating Democratic voting strength.” During a Wednesday YouTube livestream, the American University professor, who has predicted Harris would beat Trump in November, suggested that reports of Democrats pulling ahead in mail-in voting in certain states bode well for them. However, Democrats already made up the majority of mail-in voters, and Republicans have reportedly increased their relative shares in Pennsylvania, Georgia, Arizona, and North Carolina. “The polls in 2016 underestimated Republican voting strength,” Lichtman said. “It’s my view based on what...

[Catholic Caucus] Cardinal Gregory offers tough advice on the Catholic Dilemma this US electionWith less than twenty days to go before the United States presidential election, the cardinal archbishop of Washington, DC, has acknowledged the difficulties Catholics face in deciding how to vote – but reiterates that choose they must. Speaking to Crux while in Rome for this month’s Synod of Bishops on Synodality, Cardinal Wilton Gregory of Washington stressed the importance of having a broad understanding of key national challenges and urged Catholics not to be single-issue voters on 5 November. “No political party and certainly no individual candidate...

Two men have gone head to head in a medieval-style duel with 'machetes' on a busy London High Street. Distressed onlookers can be heard crying 'don't do it - please!' as the masked opponents participate in an East Ham show-down with their long weapons. When contacted by MailOnline, the Met Police said no arrests had been as the men were not located - meaning they are still on the loose. The incident took place on Monday October 14 and police were called to the scene at around 1pm. Footage of the duel has circulated on social media with many observing...

CV NEWS FEED // A pro-life advocate and grandfather was put in “one of the most notoriously violent federal prisons in the country” this week, following the criminal prosecution over his participation in a peaceful protest outside an abortion facility, according to a recent The Daily Wire report. The Daily Wire reported that Calvin Zastrow, 63, was set to enter the Federal Correctional Institute Thomson in Illinois on October 15. The Daily Wire’s Leif Le Mahieu wrote that the prison “has made headlines in recent years with reports of rampant violence and abuse,” as there were five suspected homicides from...

A New Hampshire Supreme Court Justice has been indicted by a grand jury for allegedly trying to interfere in an open investigation of her husband. In an Oct. 16 statement from the New Hampshire Department of Justice, Attorney General John Formella said the Merrimack County grand jury had indicted Justice Anna Barbara Hantz Marconi for two felonies and five misdemeanors. All the charges relate to her alleged attempts to interfere with a criminal investigation into her husband, Geno Marconi. “The decision to charge a sitting Justice of the New Hampshire Supreme Court was not made lightly, and it comes after...

CV NEWS FEED // Bevelyn Beatty Williams turned herself in to federal prison on Wednesday after the Biden-Harris Department of Justice charged her with violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act for preaching the Gospel outside of a New York abortion facility. Before surrendering herself into federal custody, Wiliams and her husband, Ricky Williams, released a video on Facebook and TikTok detailing how the ordeal has affected their family. “Thanks to the Biden/ Harris administration. My husband is becoming a single father today,” wrote Williams. “While I turn myself into federal prison for 3 1/2 years for...

House Speaker Mike Johnson promised Thursday that New York Republicans will “defy the odds again” and win even more seats in 2024 than they did in the 2022 midterms, when they helped to secure the party’s majority in the lower chamber. In an exclusive sit-down with The Post, Johnson (R-La.) predicted Republicans will achieve unified government after the Nov. 5 election, thanks in large part to strong candidates running in tough Empire State swing districts. “We recruited workhorses — and not show ponies — this cycle,” the House speaker boasted, saying he was “very bullish” about growing his majority by...

Members of the audience at a town hall glowered as former President Donald Trump described January 6 as a 'day of love' and tried to minimize the seriousness of the violent clash at the Capitol. Questioner Ramiro Gonzalez, a Republican construction worker from Tampa, said he wanted to give Trump 'the opportunity to try and win back my vote,' then issued a series of blunt statements during the Univision town hall this week... The Kamala Harris campaign later posted about it on X, in a post that zooms in on the puzzled expressions of audience members during the broadcast by...

AOC isn’t extreme enough for them! Local Democratic Socialists may censure US Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez for going too soft on Israel — with alleged transgressions including supporting the Jewish State’s “right to exist.” The New York City chapter of the Democratic Socialists of America will consider a resolution at its annual convention Saturday to shame Ocasio-Cortez even though the congresswoman has publicly criticized Israel and isn’t considered a staunch ally of the country. The uber-liberal group’s resolution blasts Ocasio-Cortez for several statements and votes, including supporting House Resolution 888, which “affirmed Israel’s right to exist” and “recognizes that denying Israel’s...

Of All the Threads Taking Kamala and Her 'TESTY' Fox News Interview APART, THIS One Is the Most DAMNINGAs Twitchy readers (and pretty much any person on the planet who isn't completely brainwashed by the Democrat propaganda agenda) know, Kamala Harris did NOT have the best interview with Fox News' Bret Baier. In fact, you could say it was downright AWFUL. A train wreck. The dumpster fire to end all dumpster fires. It. Was. BAD. And in case you missed it (luck you), Twitchy favorite @VigilantFox put together the most spot-on thread about the interview with actual clips we've seen...

California has invested a staggering $24 billion over the past five fiscal years to address homelessness, a figure that underscores the state’s urgent effort to curb this intractable crisis. Yet, as this spending has increased, so has California’s homeless population. In the 2021-22 fiscal year, when the homeless population was estimated to be 172,000, California spent $7.2 billion, which equated to nearly $42,000 per homeless individual. The spending includes housing and rental assistance, physical and mental health outreach, case management, and funds to purchase motels and other types of temporary housing. In a scathing report released in April, the California...
