I have been watching polymarket for a month. Until 3 days ago. Kams had been leading by one point --- For the 20 previous days. Starting 3 days ago DJT's polymarket score started rising. NOW Trump is leading by about 7 percentage points. The Biden-Kamala FEMA disaster in NC and other states must be a factor. Showing how DEI incompetent and stupid they are. President Trump would have been cracking the whip on FEMA and other Federal agencies. Some of this incompetence is due to these Federal "workers" being working from home scammers. Caution is that with polymarket, you can...

A look at the Biden administration’s key players show shocking antipathy for the United States and one of our greatest allies. In a formal introduction of his newly chosen Cabinet, President Biden proudly declared: “This is the first [time] in American history that the cabinet looks like America.” Scrutinizing the actual appointments and not just the sex, skin color, and ethnic origins of the Biden team reveals a group that may look like America but doesn’t think like America. In fact, it is a team whose outlook is transparently anti-American. Take Biden’s vice president, Kamala Harris, whose antipathy for America...

Many Americans may be unaware of the extent of the damage. Unlike Hurricane Katrina, which received non-stop coverage on cable news for weeks, with primetime anchors like Anderson Cooper visiting on location covering stories of human tragedy and government incompetence, Helene’s aftermath has received far less coverage. It is on social media platforms like X where folks will find horrifying stories of the stench of death still strong in difficult to reach areas, the lack of government assistance for those in need, and the courage of private efforts serving the area. Some of this is explained by the time period...

Just received this note from a SpaceX engineer helping on the ground in North Carolina. @FEMA is not merely failing to adequately help people in trouble, but is actively blocking citizens who try to help! “Hey Elon, update here on site of Asheville, NC. We have powered up two large operating bases for choppers to deliver goods into hands. We’ve deployed 300+ starlinks and outpour is it has saved many lives. The big issue is FEMA is actively blocking shipments and seizing goods and services locally and locking them away to state they are their own. It’s very real and...

Gov. Tim Walz (D), Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate, once bragged about mass immigration overwhelming a small town in southern Minnesota — calling the situation an example of “beautiful diversity.” In late 2019, Breitbart News reported extensively on Worthington, Minnesota. With fewer than 14,000 residents, the town’s taxpayers were forced to hike taxes to the sum of tens of millions to expand the school district because of a rapid increase in migrant children enrolling. Much of that mass immigration in Worthington is the result of the federal government’s Unaccompanied Alien Children (UAC) program and the fact that a JBS...

We are here! Illegals in Arizona admit they are registered to vote, support Kamala Harris

The growth of orders placed with American factories for durable goods stagnated in August, casting a shadow on claims by Vice President Kamala Harris that the Biden-Harris administration’s policies have bolstered U.S. industrial strength. The value of durable goods orders did not rise at all in August, the Commerce Department said Thursday. This was, however, better than expected. Economists had forecast orders would decline by 2.7 percent. In July, orders jumped 9.9 percent, a slight upward revision from the earlier estimate of 9.8 percent. Core capital goods orders, a measure which excludes volatile sectors like transportation and defense and is...

Consumer confidence in September suffered the worst decline in more than three years, dragged down by a weaker labor market and rising pessimism about future business conditions and incomes. The Conference Board on Tuesday said its index of U.S. consumer confidence fell to 98.7 in January from 105.6, near the lowest of the range for the index over the past two years. Economists had expected a slight decline to 103 from the preliminary estimate of 103.3 for August. Increasingly pessimistic expectations for the economy’s performance in the months ahead and a weaker labor market drove September’s confidence decline.

A reformed Chicago gangster sounds the alarm on what’s brewing in the Windy City: a metropolis “up in flames” and a bloody turf war of “blacks” versus “migrants.” Tyrone Muhammad was once a Chiraq gangbanger whose life changed after he spent twenty years in a state prison for a murder conviction. Since his release, he’s devoted his energy to street patrols and violence prevention, starting a group known as Ex-Cons for Community and Social Change, and he’s warning the public about what he sees as a very real possibility if the Biden-Harris illegal aliens continue to be given the free...

Sunday morning, the St. Louis community was struck with grief and anger as Officer David Lee, an 18-year veteran of the St. Louis Police Department, was killed in the line of duty after stopping to assist a motorist on Interstate 70. The tragic incident, which occurred around 8:30 AM, is now being spotlighted not only for the loss of a dedicated officer but also for the deepening crisis surrounding illegal immigration and soft-on-crime policies championed by the left. Officer Lee was tending to traffic safety, rummaging through his vehicle’s trunk for cones to protect motorists, when a speeding SUV driven...

Campaign officials are weighing a potential visit by Vice President Kamala Harris to the US-Mexico border while in Arizona on Friday as the campaign tries to close the gap with former President Donald Trump on the issue of immigration, according to two sources familiar with the discussions. Immigration has featured prominently in the 2024 presidential election. Democrats, grappling with years of border crises, have tried to flip the script on Republicans after the GOP blocked a bipartisan border measure earlier this year. Some Harris campaign officials remain concerned about the gap in polling, which shows Trump holding a lead on...

The U.S. is entering an era of hyperinflation, warns Lynette Zang, Founder & CEO of Zang Enterprises, adding that the transition in the U.S. has already begun. "I believe with all my heart and everything that I know that we've already begun the transition to hyperinflation," Zang told Michelle Makori, Lead Anchor and Editor-in-Chief at Kitco News. "We're going to see more borrowing, more money printing, more inflation because they have not killed that beast that they created and continue to create. It'll become very obvious in 2025." Zang sees the economy holding up well through the U.S. elections on...

2.7 million non-citizens could cast votes in the 2024 election in November, according to a new study which adds weight to growing concerns that the Biden-Harris “open border” was part of a broader strategy to keep Democrats in power and ignore the will of the American people. Nonprofit research institute, Just Facts, found that around “10% to 27% of non-citizen adults in the U.S. are now illegally registered to vote.” “Given their voter registration rates, this means that about two million to five million of them are illegally registered to vote. These figures are potentially high enough to overturn the...

The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission said it intends to seek sanctions against Elon Musk after he failed to appear and testify in court amid the agency's probe into his $44 billion takeover of Twitter, which he renamed X. The SEC is asking for a court order to show cause why the Tesla CEO and SpaceX owner should not be held in civil contempt after he said he wouldn't appear a mere three hours before the scheduled Sept. 10 testimony, Reuters reported, citing a filing in San Francisco federal court. Musk's actions violated a May 31 court order compelling his...

Springfield, Ohio.. Residents of Springfield didn’t expect that their community would be tossed into the center of one of the most consequential elections in American history. They also didn’t expect the town of 58,000 to receive as many as 20,000 Haitian migrants in just a few short years, ushering in a shift that’s left many Springfielders feeling like foreigners in their own home, and worried for their economic prospects. The surge of Haitian migrants came during the Biden-Harris administration, when more than 300,000 Haitians who crossed the border into the United States were offered temporary protected status, allowing them to...

Nashville food banks are being pushed to their limits with people needing help now more than ever before. Over the past couple of years, demand has skyrocketed at The Branch because of higher grocery prices. Angie Thomas said they now serve more than 1,200 families per month. There was a constant line of cars outside of the building on Wednesday for their senior food box giveaway. “We have a heart for this community,” Thomas said. “We want this community to thrive. When we are able to provide something that our community needs, like food, like English language classes, like entrepreneur...

Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday criticized Republican Donald Trump’s promise to deport millions of people who are in the United States illegally, questioning whether he would rely on massive raids and detention camps to carry it out. Harris, the Democratic presidential nominee, told the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute’s annual leadership conference that the nation can find both a pathway to citizenship for those who want to come and at the same time secure the border. “We can do both, and we must do both,” she said. Trump, for his part, leaned heavily on his alarmist message on immigration as...

Earlier this month, four Venezuelan members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang who were arrested in Colorado were confirmed as illegal aliens, according to a statement made by an ICE spokesperson to Fox News. The Venezuelan nationals were in the age ranges of 19 through 24, and they all crossed the southern border via Texas illegally in 2022 and 2023, under the Biden regime’s watch. Aurora police arrested all four of them and ice placed detainer requests on two of the Venezuela nationals. The four Venezuelan nationals were arrested following a shooting which took place close to Nome Street...

Saudi Arabia’s crown prince, Mohammed bin Salman (MBS), said Wednesday that there would be no “normalization” of relations with Israel without the establishment of a Palestinian state — a reversal of his position one year ago. In September 2023, as Breitbart News reported, MBS said that he wanted to see a “good life” for Palestinians emerge from any peace deal with Israel, but specifically excluded mention of a Palestinian state. While the Saudi foreign minister insisted on a Palestinian state, MBS — the real source of power in the kingdom — pointedly did not. But the Biden administration reportedly intervened,...
