A lawyer for the Trump campaign is demanding answers from the Philadelphia Board of City Commissioners after a photograph appeared to show Mayor Jim Kenney violating election law, the Delaware Valley Journal has learned. Kenney explained his actions and said no laws were broken. The complaint is in a letter to the Board of Commissioners, obtained exclusively by the Delaware Valley Journal, and is a follow-up to one the Trump campaign sent last week. The new complaint was sparked by a picture of Kenney that appeared in Thursday’s Philadelphia Inquirer. Because of Pennsylvania’s laws against ballot harvesting, people can only...

Having been silent since the riots broke out in Baltimore this week, President Obama delivered a lengthy response Tuesday to the violence, calling out the “criminals and thugs who tore up the place.” Asked his thoughts on the unrest during a Rose Garden press conference on trade with the prime minister of Japan, Obama said: “There’s no excuse for the kind of violence we saw yesterday. It is counterproductive. When individuals get crow bars and start prying open doors to loot, they’re not protesting. They’re not making a statement. They’re stealing.” On Monday, people began rioting in the streets of...

Pennsylvania Republicans have filed a second emergency request with the U.S. Supreme Court in the hope of undoing a state Supreme Court ruling that forces Pennsylvania election officials to accept mail-in ballots received up to three days after Election Day. ... The Supreme Court currently has eight members instead of the usual nine due to the Sept. 18 death of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg. The Senate Judiciary Committee voted 12–0 on Oct. 22 to send the nomination of Judge Amy Coney Barrett of the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals to the Senate floor. Every Republican member of the committee voted...

Going back to (at least) the technocratic and ambitious FDR, American Democrats have believed that federal government eggheads are best suited to manage most things, including mundane things like ensuring healthcare or housing, for everyone. But as a rule, Democrats have always had a very nuanced way of presenting such policies to the American people. In other words, socialists in America have been most successful when they don’t tell Americans that what’s being offered to them is socialism. The old guard of the Democrat party, which Joe Biden represents, has long understood that. The radical Bernie Sanders wing of the...

A new poll finds Joe Biden stretching his lead over President Trump in Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania as late-breaking undecided voters say they intend to back the Democratic presidential nominee. The latest survey of likely voters in the three former “blue wall” states from the Elections Research Center at the University of Wisconsin-Madison finds Biden nearly doubling his lead in each state compared to last month. Crucially, Biden is above the 50 percent mark in all three states, while Trump remains mired in the low to mid-40s. In Michigan, Biden leads by 10 points, 52 to 42. Five percent of...

The leftist media has been avoiding asking Joe Biden tough questions, but in a very brief segment on CBS, they asked Pennsylvania voters if they were concerned about the “behavior” of Hunter Biden. “The President has been making an issue of the behavior of Joe Biden’s son, Hunter. Is that resonating with anyone?” CBS’s Anthony Mason asked on Wednesday. “Absolutely,” a voter replied. “I’m concerned if Biden got into office that, you know, if something happened with his son or things start coming out, then he’s going to defend his son. He’s not going to be defending the country.” ...

In one of the rare instances where the media has bothered to ask Joe Biden about anything of substance, he was forced to give an answer during the last presidential debate about whether or not he was planning on banning fracking. He flip-flopped on that issue yet again, saying that he would not be banning fracking, likely because he’s aware that the polls in Pennsylvania are hanging by a thread at the moment. But as C. Boyden Gray points out this week at Real Clear Politics, Joe Biden’s answer wasn’t just at odds with previous statements by both he...

Not only did Democrat presidential nominee Joe Biden hold another embarrassingly tiny rally on Saturday; he tried to put a positive spin on it by claiming he prefers that only a few people show up at his events because the minuscule “crowds” reduce COVID-19 spread. So how small was it? Joe could’ve held the event in his basement and there would’ve been enough space for everyone to properly social distance. In fact, it was so small that rock & roll icon Jon Bon Jovi played to 12 people and seven pumpkins. That’s how small it was.But here’s the thing. Just...

Searches for “can I change my vote” surged on Sunday evening following the bombshell sex tape and email leaks from Hunter Biden’s laptop, including in the crucial swing state Pennsylvania.

Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden is getting grilled in Pennsylvania ever since he said during last week’s debate that he plans to “transition” away from the oil industry. In three separate local news interviews in the key battleground state on Saturday, Biden responded to questions about his comment, as well as his mixed messages regarding fracking. “Look I'm from Scranton, Pennsylvania. My great grandfather was a mining engineer. So I come from coal country. And I'm not talking about eliminating fracking, I just said no more fracking on federal lands,” Biden told CBS Philadelphia. “With regard to gas, oil, coal...

Seeking to stop the political bleeding, Joseph R. Biden struck out on the campaign trail Saturday in Pennsylvania, pushing back against President Trump’s charge that he wants to bring the hammer down on the oil and gas industry in the state by banning fracking. “Look let me be clear,” Mr. Biden said at a rally in Bucks County “I am not banning fracking in Pennsylvania or anywhere else.” Mr. Biden’s stance on the oil and gas industry is getting extra attention in the wake of the final presidential debate. Mr. Trump said Mr. Biden had delivered a mixed message on...

If the presidential election comes down to Pennsylvania or Michigan, it could take until Friday after Election Day — or maybe even later — for those results to be tabulated, the states’ chief election officials said Tuesday. Pennsylvania Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar (D) and Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson (D) both elaborated on their predictions for their states’ counting timelines during a web panel hosted by the Harvard Ash Center Tuesday afternoon. Both states have rules limiting how much processing of mail-in ballots can be done before Election Day — though Michigan’s legislature recently agreed to a modest...

It Will Be Hard to Carry Pennsylvania… [Updated] …or Ohio, or New Mexico, not to mention Texas, North Dakota or Louisiana (not that he was going to win them anyway) now that Joe Biden has made it clear that he wants to destroy the oil and gas industries. Note, too, that Colorado, a state counted on by Democrats, produces four percent of American oil. The Trump campaign quickly followed up on Biden’s admission in last night’s debate:CLICK ABOVE ARTICLE LINK FOR THE VIDEO OF WHAT JOE BIDEN SAID... I’d like to see similar ads in other states, especially Colorado and...

Video of a Biden campaign stop in Pennsylvania highlighted by the Trump campaign shows the Democratic presidential candidate calling Pennsylvanian voters who do not support him "chumps." "I'll work as hard for those who don't support me as those who do, including those chumps with the microphone out there," Biden said.
