Eminem welcomed Barack Obama to the stage while appearing at a Kamala Harris rally in Michigan just two weeks before the 2024 presidential election. And the former president couldn't help but rap one of Eminem's biggest hits. The Grammy-winning artist, 52, and former Democratic president, 63, briefly shared the spotlight on Tuesday, Oct. 22, in Detroit as they rallied support for Harris' campaign ahead of Election Day. After being introduced by Eminem, Obama began his speech by quoting the rapper's 2002 hit song "Lose Yourself." "I have done a lot of rallies, so I don't usually get nervous. But I...

I've been trying to figure out the rational why we are being called upon to vote early. Here is the potential rational as I see it. Early voting has the benefit of positive publicity before the election can be rigged while also allowing the Trump campaign to know where it needs to focus its attention. These points are valid but I fear that they provide the cheaters ample time to print off extra ballots. I've heard some say that this level of blatant cheating as seen in 2020 is being mitigated by an over abundance of lawyers at the polling...

On Tuesday night, while campaigning for former and potentially future President Donald Trump in North Carolina, former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard announced that she was joining the Republican Party. She had served as a Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii's 2nd Congressional District from 2013-2021 and even ran for president in 2020. She left the Democratic Party to become an Independent in October 2022, however, and has now since become a Republican. While such an announcement came on Tuesday, as Gabbard joined Trump at the podium in Greensboro, she had endorsed him in August. This is also around the time when Robert F....

LANSING — A federal judge on Tuesday threw out a Republican lawsuit challenging Michigan’s voter rolls, ruling the Republican plaintiffs failed to provide evidence the state was violating federal law and lacked legal standing to sue. The suit from the Republican National Committee and other GOP groups alleged Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson was failing to maintain voter registration lists as required under the National Voter Registration Act, or NVRA. The complaint cited U.S. Census and state data indicating Michigan has more registered voters than voting-age adults. But the state says it is planning to cancel nearly 600,000 registrations...

LAS VEGAS (KLAS)– A national insurance company refuses to pay the insurance claim of an 82-year-old woman whose home in Las Vegas caught fire and burned to the ground in July 2023, destroying 70% of it and the majority of her possessions inside, the 8 News Now Investigators have learned. Liberty Mutual canceled the woman’s homeowners policy two weeks before the fire saying the woman, Judi Johnson – and her special-needs adult son – were running a motorcycle repair shop out of the three-bedroom home near Oakey and MLK boulevards, according to documents provided by the homeowner. “No,” Johnson said...

Two senior Israeli officials have expressed concern to The Times of Israel over Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump’s repeated call for Israel to quickly end its war against Hamas in Gaza, fearing an inability to do so will lead to a clash if the former president returns to office in January. “There are internal political constraints to ending the war quickly,” one of the Israeli officials from the security establishment said on Sunday. While declining to elaborate, he appeared to refer to the makeup of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s coalition, which includes far-right elements who have opposed hostage deal proposals...

Vice President Kamala Harris has been busted for plagiarizing a congressional testimony from a Republican district attorney in 2007. This is the second plagiarism scandal that the Democrat nominee has faced in recent weeks. According to a report from the Washington Free Beacon, Harris’ testimony was stolen from Illinois District Attorney Paul Logli. The report explains: In a written statement to the House Judiciary Committee, she described how debt-addled prosecutors often decamp to the private sector a few years into the job, lured by the prospect of higher pay that could be used to pay off law school debt. That...

Election officials in Erie, Pennsylvania just admitted that they "incorrectly" sent duplicate mail-in ballots to almost 300 voters due to a "software issue." The county outsourced its mail-in ballot operation to a private company out of Ohio called Election IQ. I have some questions for Election no-IQ. What kind of software glitch causes two ballots to be shipped to 300 different people? Has this glitch occurred in any other election? As for Erie officials, why can't you guys handle your own mail-in voting operation? How hard can it be? Will you now terminate the contract you have with this garbage...

The University of Michigan has spent a quarter of a billion dollars on the promotion of DEI over the past decade, building the largest DEI bureaucracy at any school in the country. So what has it gotten for all of that investment? Not much according to a lengthy report by Nicholas Confessore. What it has produced is a campus overrun with DEI language.Leaders of the University of Michigan, one of America’s most prestigious public universities, like to say that their commitment to diversity, equity and inclusion is inseparable from the pursuit of academic excellence. Most students must take at least...

It’s disconcerting to think that so many young women would prioritize the “right” to murder their unborn children as the primary reason for supporting Kamala Harris. The fact that we’ve reached a point in this nation where children—innocent, defenseless lives—are nothing more than inconveniences that can be disposed of without a second thought speaks to the depth of the moral decay we are witnessing. When the culture treats unborn children as nothing more than a “choice,” it’s no surprise that this mentality spreads, especially among young people on college campuses. They’ve been indoctrinated to believe that the pursuit of personal...

With two weeks to go until Election Day, Kamala Harris’ top advisers are staring down numbers that show a wide majority of Americans saying the country is on the wrong track. They’re also confident that the next two weeks will include Donald Trump dropping more references to the “enemy within” or January 6 as a “day of love” and going off on rambling tangents like his lewd remarks about golf legend Arnold Palmer at a Pennsylvania rally last week. And they expect they’ll be able to trigger him into making more outlandish claims. Getting Americans to focus on that over...
