An Irish citizen has been moved out of his home by gardaí after receiving death threats from far-right agitators, the Irish Mail on Sunday has learned. Last week, a video was filmed outside Andre Buchanan’s apartment, featuring a bullet and the sound of a gun. This week, Mr Buchanan – a musician who moved to Ireland from Jamaica when he was just nine years old – received a bomb threat on his car. He also featured in a video posted to TikTok by a man who gave his new location away and told his followers he needs to be ‘removed’....

I’ve argued previously that former first lady and twice-failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton would like one more bite at the apple, and as Biden’s reelection candidacy implodes, her name has popped up once again. Frankly, I’m surprised it’s taken this long.The Hill opinion contributor Pablo O’Hana thinks Rodham Clinton is just the woman who can save the president’s chances:“But who?” The strongest argument against replacing President Joe Biden as the 2024 Democratic nominee is the notion that no suitable successor exists. But there is, and not just a good one but one of the most qualified people ever to run...

Which of the Republican controlled states will remove Biden from the ballot? Does Biden stepping down matter at all? Of what relevance is a current VP assuming the duties of President? Is the DEATH of the NOMINEE (not the current President per se) the only possible way to get some new NOMINEE on the ballot of all 50 states?

Tongues are wagging in Ohio about who might replace JD Vance as U.S. senator should he become vice president in January 2025, which becomes increasingly likely with every passing day. AdvertisementThe Ohio Revised Code gives the governor, in this case Mike "Wear the Mask, Peasant" DeWine, power to appoint a replacement until a special election is held in November 2026. The winner would serve out Vance's term, which ends in 2028.I told my colleague Stephen Kruiser that Ohio is "very cat-fighty." There are political rivalries going back decades, loyalty tests, and enough backstabbing to rival the mob (without the murders......

Democratic strategist James Carville said former Presidents Bill Clinton and Barack Obama should direct discussions on who should replace President Biden on the ticket. “Mark my words: Joe Biden is going to be out of the 2024 presidential race. Whether he is ready to admit it or not. His pleas on Monday to congressional Democrats for support will not unite the party behind him,” Mr. Carville wrote in an op-ed in The New York Times Monday. He added that the party shouldn’t just shift gears to nominate Vice President Kamala Harris or another Democrat; the process should be “out in...

It looks like Joe Biden is refusing to step down from the Democrat presidential ticket. Putting aside the legal issues and deadlines resulting from late ballot changes and the undesirability of Kamala Harris taking over, there are problems with removing Biden by force. Let’s take a look at them:1. Removing Biden at the convention: The delegates are already pledged to Biden. This would require 300 delegate signatures and would be very messy at best, with Michelle Obama (assuming she is their savior) having to compete with other potential candidates. An alternative plan, still very messy and still subject to the...

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) said in a new interview that she doesn’t like seeing her name mentioned as a possible replacement for President Biden if he leaves the presidential campaign. “It’s a distraction more than anything,” she told The Associated Press. “I don’t like seeing my name in articles like that because I’m totally focused on governing and campaigning for the ticket.” The governor has been a top name floated to replace Biden on the Democratic ticket should he end his reelection campaign. A rising number of critics has asked to step down, amid concerns over his age and...

California Democratic delegate Areva Martin told media personality Stephen A. Smith that passing over Vice President Kamala Harris as President Biden's replacement should he withdraw from the race would destroy the party. "If you pick a White man over Kamala Harris, Black women, I can tell you this, we are going to walk away," Martin said Tuesday. "We are going to blow the party up." As speculation over Biden's status as leader of the party grows, Democrats are openly divided over who is qualified to run against former President Trump in the months before the election. "Who are we agreeing...

At some point, someone needs to tell the media to move on after the debate. Biden's diminished mental capacity is only news to the mainstream media. America knew it; the White House, the Senate, and Congress knew it. The only thing that has changed is that the issue is now impossible to avoid. At the moment, the House is fielding demands for Biden to drop out, and the media vultures have been in free fall. But if we are honest, no one seriously believed that Biden was in charge to begin with. Joe wanted his ride in the Oval Office,...

Billionaire Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker failed to deliver jobs promised for black workers in the emerging cannabis and green energy industries, an economic advocacy group said in a scathing report. Pritzker – considered a potential replacement for President Joe Biden at the top of the Democratic ticket – will be hosting the Democratic National Convention on his Chicago turf in August. “Governor Pritzker wants the DNC to celebrate his leadership of the state. However, it would be an injustice to do so without acknowledging the deteriorating state of affairs for Black communities, especially in Chicago,” said Darius Jones, senior advisor...

In the lead-up to Thursday night's debate, the conventional wisdom was that Biden had to convince everyone - party bosses and influential pundits especially - that he wasn't too old and addled to be the Democrat nominee again. * * * But how does that happen, logistically? Can it? I researched the DNC's bylaws for the 2024 convention back in November and found that yes, it can, but it would most easily happen after the convention ends. I explained in this appearance on Dana Loesch's radio show:

Like mafiosos, or the old gray men of the Kremlin trying to figure out how to get rid of Leonid Brezhnev or Konstantin Chernenko, Democrat power players have called in Joe Biden for a sitdown.Dougie Kass, a hedge fund shark who leads Seabreeze Capital Partners of Palm Beach, Florida, reports the dirt: What I am hearing regarding Joe Biden. Ron Klain and Barack Obama are having a sit down with the President today. Jill Biden is insistent that Joe runs. Kamala is furious that she is not being considered as a replacement (Whitmer and Newsom are). Interestingly my neighbor in…...

Almost every Democrat and leftist who saw the presidential debate on Thursday night and watched President Joe Biden melt down is "panicked" and plotting. From the legacy media, to mega-donors, to other Democrat electeds, they all want to know when Joe Biden will be replaced on the Democrat ticket. Our Managing Editor Jennifer Van Laar outlined cogently how it could be done, while moving historic VP Kamala Harris to the side in the process. So, as the speculation grows louder (so much for "democracy"), so does the floating of names on who could be potential replacements.MSNBC's Chief Political Analyst Chuck...

Corporate America has pretty much turned its back on white employees. Last week, James O’Keefe published an undercover video that saw a long-time Disney insider explain that Disney will no longer hire white men in its corporate offices. This week, James Woods published on X two graphics based upon data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics showing that it’s not just Disney that is discriminating against whites. Instead, whites are being frozen out of the corporate labor market. As of the 2020 Census, before Joe Biden’s frantic efforts to import millions of non-white people into America, self-identified whites made up...

The Biden administration officially takes its immigration services to the root of Muslim migration with the expansion of international field offices. The U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) announced on Apr. 23 that it is opening new international field offices in Doha, Qatar, and Ankara, Turkey, to "increase capacity for refugee processing, strengthen strategic partnerships, and facilitate interagency cooperation." USCIS Director Ur M. Jaddou stated: "Opening these field offices establishes a USCIS presence and expertise in critical locations in the Middle East and is part of our commitment to the Biden-Harris administration's efforts to facilitate safe, lawful, and orderly migration...

The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore came as quite a shock. After a massive container ship struck one of the bridge’s pillars, the entire span quickly fell apart, costing several lives. It’s hard to overstate the bridge’s importance, particularly for the automobile industry. In addition to handling 11 million vehicles per year, it provided a vital way for trucks to access the Port of Baltimore while avoiding the dense city core. The impact on the region will be felt for months, if not years. The question is, what now? President Joe Biden has said that the...

In February 2024, the foreign-born population in the United States hit a new high of 51.4 million and 15.5 percent of the U.S. population - surpassing all prior records...The foreign-born share of the U.S. population has more than tripled since 1970, nearly doubled since 1990, and is up 40 percent just since 2000.

New York City shelters are overwhelmed with migrants... But for companies like Tyson Foods Inc., struggling to fill unpopular jobs with a U.S. unemployment rate of 3.9%, this new population presents an alluring opportunity. The food processing company wants to hire 52,000 asylum seekers for factory jobs, offering a starting wage of $16.50 per hour along with benefits. The company understands and is aware that these are jobs that many find unpleasant, such as washing meat, placing the cuts into trays, final inspections for bones and packing meat, but believe this will help the refugees to start a life in...
