    Gone is the sugar high over Kamala Harris based on less than accurate polls which peaked following the Democrat Convention only to replaced by Politico gloom due to the first "high-quality" survey since Joe Biden was dumped by the Democrats. The grieving Politico team of Ryan Lizza, Rachael Bade, and Eugene Daniels sounded their sad notes of reality check despair in the Sunday Playbook, "Sobering new polls for Harris."

    The FBI raided the homes of two of the top members of New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ (D) administration on Wednesday morning, Politico revealed. Several sources told the outlet that NYC First Deputy Mayor Sheena Wright’s Manhattan townhome and Deputy Mayor for Public Safety Philip Banks’ Queens single-family residence were both searched as part of an investigation into Adams’ 2021 campaign. The mayor himself was served a grand jury subpoena in July after law enforcement seized his electronic devices in November 2023 over allegations that he colluded with foreign governments, including the government of Turkey, Politico reported. Banks and...

    The media have developed a pathological obsession with shielding Vice President Kamala Harris from any criticism or inconvenient fact.. ince a soft coup ousted President Joe Biden as the Democrat nominee in late July, the media have developed a pathological obsession with shielding Vice President Kamala Harris from any criticism or inconvenient fact. To protect their anointed favorite, the media have engaged in a masterclass of revisionism, unleashing every trick in the book to manipulate their audience into buying the new, carefully crafted image of Harris. They’ve tried to claim that a woman whose office was described by her own...

    It seemed the Democrats were test marketing a new label with the aid of Politico's Friday Read that they seem to hope would take the 2024 race by storm. That magic label now being test marketed by the Democrats supposedly to describe the Kamala Harris presidential campaign was, wait for it, "movement."It seems to be the sad duty of poor Michael Kruse of Politico on Friday to put that "movement" label out there to see if the public laughs it off the campaign trail in "The Surprising Word Democrats Keep Using to Describe Kamala Harris’ Campaign."Although Kruse seems to have...

    Former President Donald Trump again drew outrage from pro-life organizations this week after he said he would not ban the distribution of abortion pills by mail if elected, drawing outrage from pro-life organizations. In an interview with CBS News on Monday, Trump answered whether he would enforce the Comstock Act if he won the 2024 presidential election. As explained by reporter Caitlin Huey-Burns, the 1873 law could "prohibit the … distribution of medication abortion by mail." "No," Trump responded. "We will be discussing specifics of it but generally speaking, no." When asked again if he would enforce the Comstock Act,...

    Donald Trump’s campaign is expanding its ranks as he seeks to regain his footing in the presidential campaign, bringing on a handful of top allies — including former Trump 2016 campaign manager Corey Lewandowski. Lewandowski, who has remained an informal Trump adviser since his first campaign, is being brought on to advise the campaign’s senior leadership team, according to a person familiar with the move and granted anonymity to speak freely. He joins several other former Trump aides who will play similar roles. Tim Murtaugh, who was the communications director on Trump’s 2020 campaign, will also be joining. So, too,...

    Oh woe is us! Hackers have found vulnerabilities in voting machines and, gee whiz, there is just no way to fix them before the November election. At least that is what the Politico cybersecurity reporter Maggie Miller would like you to believe.However, there is a certain word very conveniently missing from her story on Monday and that missing word is "paper," as in "paper ballots," which you will find nowhere in "The nation’s best hackers found vulnerabilities in voting machines — but no time to fix them."

    Former U.S. President and current Republican nominee for 2024 Donald Trump is having to deal with another crisis today, this time in Virginia. The campaign announced that its office in Ashburn, Virginia was burglarized, and the Loudoun County Sheriff's Office is investigating the crime. Deputies said they arrived on the scene at 9 p.m. and a man was caught on camera wearing dark clothing, a dark cap and a backpack. The name and age of the suspect has not been released so far. “It is rare to have the office of any political campaign or party broken into,” Sheriff Mike...

    An unknown male suspect burglarized former President Donald Trump’s campaign office in Ashburn, Virginia, on Sunday night, the Loudoun County Sheriff’s Office said Monday. Republican offices are often attacked: The RNC headquarters in Washington, DC, was reportedly subject to a biological attack in May. Party headquarters in San Jose, California, was attacked in 2022, followed by an attack on the Seminole County, Florida, Republican Party headquarters. The suspect in Virginia, whom surveillance video showed to be carrying a backpack and wearing a black baseball cap, appeared to stuff items into the bag during the burglary. He remains on the run.

    Vice President Harris leads former President Trump by 9 points among young voters in a new poll, marking the latest shift in support from a demographic President Biden struggled to capture before withdrawing from the 2024 race. In a SocialSphere survey, released by Democratic super PAC Won’t Pac Down, Harris garnered 51 percent support from registered voters ages 18-29 in battleground states in a two-way race against Trump, who had 42 percent of support from this group. Seven percent did not know which candidate they would back. Pollsters noted this is a 13-point shift to Harris since the poll was...

    According to a recent Politico article, on July 22nd they began receiving leaked documents from the account of a “senior official” within the Trump campaign. [Datapoint – That is a total of 19 days ago] The Trump campaign said the documents were “hacked” likely as an outcome of a foreign actor, intending to influence the 2024 election. Actually, that’s a pretty smart move by the Trump campaign. I’ll explain why.

    Politico and Bloomberg Opinion have just been exposed engaging in grotesque journalistic malfeasance just to suck up to the Biden-Harris White House. The Functional Government Initiative (FGI) unveiled another trove of documents of damning communications from 2022 through open records requests, giving MRC Business exclusive access. The documents reveal the extent to which the Biden-Harris Treasury Department had editorial influence over Politico and Bloomberg Opinion. A Politico reporter forwarded his pay-walled Politico Pro piece slapping down worries of the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) hiring 87,000 new employees to a Biden-Harris Treasury official who then edited some of the language used...

    Daily Caller ^ | Wallace White
    Corporate media outlets recently locked arms to dispel Donald Trump’s assertion that illegal immigration hurts “black jobs,” yet experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation that the former president is right about the problem being all too real. Trump said during a Q&A with the National Association of Black Journalists (NABJ) that “coming from the border are millions and millions of people that happen to be taking black jobs,” according to Politico, with the remarks igniting a bevy of critiques from corporate media outlets, with one going as far to say that “black jobs” don’t exist and others leaning on...

    I couldn’t get through this article, and I’ve read some crazy stuff. You must read both sides, even when your opposition has become unspooled. But this is downright low for Politico to publish this after an assassination attempt. The publication posted that Trump is like Mussolini in using such attacks for political gain: -- snip -- It’s never us that’s the problem. It’s astounding that after the Trump assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13, there was a rush from liberals, who have been fanning the flames for years, that we needed to tone down the rhetoric. No, it’s...

    The Biden administration and like-minded governments around the world are racing to secure their global climate strategy against a potential rollback under Donald Trump — an effort that has gained urgency since the ground shifted under the U.S. presidential race a month ago. The push includes leaning on the World Bank to unleash money for clean-energy projects in developing nations in a way that a future Trump administration could not unilaterally reverse. Meanwhile, climate diplomats and environmentalists have been holding their first early discussions about ways to persuade deep-pocketed investors that green energy is still the wave of the future...

    Some Democrats are hoping Vice President Harris will "pivot" on some of the administration's Israel policies as she is likely to take President Biden's position at the top of the Democratic ticket. "It’s very important for her to try to pivot here," a Palestinian American analyst who is connected to the president's team told Politico. "Obviously, she’s not going to make a 180-degree turn on Israel policy, but politically, it would be useful for the Democrats for them to signal to their base in a genuine way that there’s change coming."

    POLITICO ^ | July 18, 2024 | Christopher McCallion and Benjamin H. Friedman
    At the 2024 NATO Summit in Washington, commemorating the alliance’s 75th anniversary, leaders offered Ukraine a fresh round of false hope in its war against Russia — which is worse than doing nothing. Whether by military commitment or intensified support, the pretension that NATO could currently deliver a Ukrainian victory, or secure one later, encourages the country’s leaders to postpone reckoning with their dire circumstances. Moreover, it threatens to further imperil NATO members without a security payoff. After the failure of Ukraine’s counteroffensive in 2023, recognition that its forces cannot regain more of its territory has begun to sink in....

    Kamala Harris has suffered a blow in a poll that looked at how alternative Democratic candidates would do in swing states. There have been calls for U.S. President Joe Biden to be replaced as the Democratic candidate since the world watched his poor performance in his debate with Donald Trump on June 27. Many have assumed the vice president would be the obvious choice, but a new poll shows she doesn't fare as well as others, and she wasn't among the four who performed best. Analytics company BlueLabs carried out research to determine who would increase the number of people...
