President Donald Trump endorsed two Republicans ahead of Tuesday’s special elections in Florida’s 1st and 6th Congressional Districts, urging residents to get out and vote so Republicans can continue to secure their majority in the House. Florida’s 1st Congressional District is a race between Republican Jimmy Patronis and Democrat Gay Valimont, who are both vying for former Congressman Matt Gaetz’s (R-FL) seat. “Jimmy Patronis, Chief Financial Officer and Fire Marshall for the Great State of Florida, is running an incredible Campaign for Congress in Florida’s 1st Congressional District!” Trump said on Truth Social, describing him as a “wonderful friend” to...

One of the United States’ foremost white supremacists, Richard Spencer, has called for followers to vote for Kamala Harris in the upcoming elections. According to Spencer, Harris is the “best manager of the American empire” because she seems unlikely to support Israel. “If there is a regional conflict between Israel and Iran, Trump seems much more likely to not only support Israel in this, but take part in it, start bombing Iranian nuclear facilities,” Spencer added. .....

The Atlantic endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris on Thursday, citing her belief in Democracy and stating she “won’t abuse” power and “curry favor with dictators.” The endorsement of Harris is not a surprise. The Atlantic endorsed against Trump in the past two presidential cycles with its only third and fourth endorsements since the magazine’s founding in 1857. The Atlantic‘s endorsement, which read like a hit piece on Trump, did not mention Harris in the first three paragraphs of the endorsement. Instead, it alleged that Trump is “one of the most personally malignant and politically dangerous candidates in American history”:

Former Democrat turned independent Sen. Joe Manchin (I-WV) endorsed former Republican Maryland governor Larry Hogan on Thursday in the state’s Senate race. Manchin’s endorsement is a blow to little-known Democrat nominee Angela Alsobrooks, who is under pressure to stave off Hogan’s surge to flip Maryland’s typically Democrat Senate seat to Republican. If Democrats lose the seat, Republicans will likely retake the Senate with a strong majority. “Forget about being a Democrat or Republican,” Manchin told DC News Now. “Larry Hogan is just the right person with the right attitude for the job. He’s not afraid to speak against your party,...

Kamala Harris will be better for Wall Street investors because she will import more low-wage legal and illegal migrants from around the world, according to Goldman Sachs, a New York investment firm. The choice was admitted in a September 3 report, titled “The Election and the Economy: Estimating Immigration, trade and Fiscal Effects”: If Harris wins, we expect that net immigration will continue [at] 1.5mn [million] per year, somewhat above the pre-pandemic trend of 1mn [legal immigrants]. If Trump wins with divided government, we expect net immigration will fall to 1.25mn. If Republicans sweep, Congress could increase enforcement resources, and...

No one clapped when Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) formally and emphatically offered his support — and that of fellow Democrats — for Vice President Kamala Harris as the Democrat nominee in place of President Joe Biden, and the awkward moment went viral following his announcement Tuesday in a press conference. “President Biden’s selfless decision has given the Democratic Party the opportunity to unite behind a new nominee. And boy, oh boy, are we enthusiastic,” Schumer said at the beginning of the press conference, asserting that Harris has successfully earned the support of Democrats for the nomination, bizarrely claiming that this...
