Democrat-aligned groups have been boosting voter turnout efforts through “downright dystopian” means such as free rent checks, gift cards, birth control, and “pole dancer” parties, sparking concerns over their efforts to attract young voters while raising questions about fairness as the DOJ focuses on Elon Musk’s America PAC over its recent sweepstakes. As the 2024 election approaches, Democrat-affiliated groups continue deploying highly unconventional methods to boost voter turnout, particularly among younger voters in key swing states.

@JackPosobiec HOLY SHLIT Elon's America PAC is offering $47 for EACH registered voter you refer in a swing state that signs this petition:

As disaster response efforts ramped up following the devastation of Hurricane Helene, North Carolina announced it had agreed to purchase several Hunter Biden paintings in return for U.S. aid. While President Biden had already approved North Carolina's request to have the crisis declared a "major disaster" and authorized federal assistance, the state's leaders reportedly believed they would receive far more federal funding if they agreed to buy some of Hunter's paintings. "We know how things work with this administration," said North Carolina Governor Roy Cooper. "While we're certainly grateful for the president's willingness to provide us with the assistance we...

During an interview with CNBC on Thursday, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen responded to a question on if she thinks the Federal Reserve has rates that are too high by stating that the Fed’s members expect rates to be cut and “when you have an economy that’s growing at potential, that’s operating at full employment with inflation in the vicinity of the Fed’s target, that suggests that a more neutral stance of policy is appropriate.” CNBC Senior Economics Reporter Steve Liesman asked, “I know you think a lot about the Fed. But I also know you don’t talk a lot about...

“Kamala demands a life of luxury,” a former aide revealed. “She treats the campaign like a personal checking account to fund a lifestyle she aspires to,” another aide warned. “Staff has always worried about Kamala’s spending, but she is adamant about using campaign money as she wants,” that aide on her former Senate campaign said. “She wants to live the life of someone in the White House,” a strategist described Kamala in 2015, “and she hasn’t even won the Senate yet. Her hanging around the president and first lady”, referencing the Obamas, “it’s gotten her hooked. She thinks it’s her...

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates Wednesday by the biggest amount in 16 years. The 50 percentage points reduction will make borrowing money less expensive, taking some of the pressure off consumers' wallets. Today's cut brings benchmark borrowing costs down to between 4.75 percent and 5 percent.

The Federal Reserve cut interest rates by 50 basis points Wednesday, the central bank’s first rate reduction following a two-and-a-half year crusade against inflation that raged in the wake of the pandemic. The new federal funds rate is 4.75 percent to 5 percent, a jumbo rate cut that signals the Fed’s confidence that its war against inflation is coming to an end. The pandemic hit the economy hard, scrambling supply chains, shuttering stores and leading to layoffs of millions of Americans. When the world started to reopen in the spring of 2021, however, the economy went into overdrive. The consumer...

We're told that we need to forgive every dollar of the $1.74 trillion in student loan debt because young people are being crushed under a mountain of bad loans. How were they supposed to know that majoring in Environmental Activism wouldn't allow them to earn enough money to pay back their loan? That said, young people are so overburdened in college loan debt that they can't buy a house, or start a family, or even move out of their parent's home. That's been the narrative advanced by Joe Biden, Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren and every other advocate to make student...

The Supreme Court declined on Wednesday to lift a sweeping block on President Joe Biden’s student loan repayment plan that aims to slash monthly payments and quicken the path to loan forgiveness. The high court turned down a request from the Biden administration to put the plan back in play after lower courts blocked it this summer in a legal challenge to the plan brought by GOP-led states. There were no noted dissents in the brief order

Getting tens of thousands of dollars in student debt canceled isn’t guaranteeing an immediately better financial life for Americans. So far, about 943,000 people have had their loans eliminated through the federal government’s Public Service Loan Forgiveness plan, with balances averaging $72,000 when they are cleared. Nearly two million more had their student debt erased through programs for disabled borrowers or under income-driven repayment plans. An additional 1.3 million borrowers with $20 billion in loans have been approved for discharge through a program aimed at students who were misled by their colleges about things like job prospects. Many more are...

The Biden-Harris team has signaled that it’s gearing up for an “October Surprise” on student loan cancellation — although it might come even sooner, sneaking in before early voting starts. Once again, they are trying to shift hundreds of billions of dollars in loans onto the 90% of Americans who don’t owe student debt, to gain favor with voters who do. And this time they’ve added a brazen direct-marketing campaign to appeal to those indebted voters, just ahead of the presidential election. Their new loan-forgiveness effort is particularly devious because it is designed with the administration’s previous court losses in...

An Instagram whistleblower with nearly 150k followers contacted me with screenshots exposing a sophisticated Astroturfing effort underway by the Harris-Walz campaign. Social media users are being PAID to post pro Harris-Walz content on Instagram.

The Biden Administration announced Tuesday that it would release 42 million gallons of gasoline from the Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve. The release, the Department of Energy explained, is “strategically timed and structured to maximize its impact on gas prices.” This will, according to the DOE, help lower prices at the pump during the summer months when prices tend to go up along with demand. The Northeast Gasoline Supply Reserve was created in 2012 following Superstorm Sandy, which damaged two refineries and shut down 40 terminals in New York Harbor. Some New York gas stations went as long as 30 days...

President Joe Biden revealed that his administration will be canceling more than $7 billion in student debt for 160,000 people. The White House issued a statement Wednesday announcing that 160,000 people in the United States would have their student loans canceled, erasing a total of $7.7 billion in student debt for those people. In June 2023, the Supreme Court issued a 6-3 decision to block Biden’s plan to cancel $430 billion in student loan debt for almost 40 million people.

With polls continuing to indicate that Trump might win the presidential election this Fall, Democrats are said to be urging President Biden to use his executive authority to try to turn the tide back in their Party's favor. Sen. Elizabeth Warren argued that "the way our Party has traditionally won elections is by putting as many voters on the federal teat as we can. Relieving students of their obligation to pay back their college loans is a good start, but it shouldn't be the last unlegislated expenditure he disburses. The Supreme Court may have ruled he lacks the authority to...

The Biden administration announced Thursday that it is giving Native American tribes across the country a total of $120 million to fight climate change.

The U.S. Department of Education has guided colleges to use federal work-study aid to pay students to register voters, work as voting aides, and become poll workers. Kamala Harris is proud to explain how the government is activating students to get engaged in politics by throwing your tax dollars around. NEW - Kamala Harris says the federal government will "activate" and pay college students to register voters.pic.twitter.com/aHPZjjC67G— Disclose.tv (@disclosetv) February 28, 2024The brazenness of the program is breathtaking. As with Zuckerbucks, which in 2020 were used to take over the election process around the country, the new federal program is...

Well, we've entered a presidential election year and President Biden's numbers are swirling the drain and nobody's believing the White House's gaslighting about how great the economy is. With that in mind, it looks like Team Biden has settled on a strategy: Handing out more money: A new federal program will provide summer grocery money to 21 million children across 35 states, part of the Biden administration's goal of making sure students get enough food when they're not in school and can't access free or reduced breakfast and lunch. The program will be rolled out in 35 states and all...

President Joe Biden announced on Friday that federal student loans will be wiped out for borrowers who received less than $12,000 and have been in repayment for the past decade. Starting in February federal loan borrowers 'who took out less than $12,000 in loans and have been in repayment for 10 years will get their remaining student debt cancelled immediately,' Biden said in a statement.
