Women Gather For ‘Primal Scream’ Session To Cope With Trump Victory

A group of distraught Wisconsin women gathered Nov. 9 in Klode Park in Whitefish Bay to film themselves having a “primal scream” session to express their frustration with Trump’s victory in the 2024 presidential election.

The event quickly gained traction on social media and showcased roughly two dozen women screaming in unison in the direction Lake Michigan to vent their anger, according to WFIN.

The footage, originally shared on Facebook, shows the women standing on the shoreline to carry out their primal screams. The user described the gathering in her post. “What a gorgeous morning to gather at Klode Park in Whitefish Bay to engage in a Primal Scream in order to release our pain and frustration after the election,” the user wrote.

She noted the presence nearby of who she said were supporters of President-elect Donald Trump. “If you zoom in you will see Trump supporters proudly waving their flag on top of the hill,” the user wrote.

After screaming to their hearts’ content, participants had a discussion on political organizing to help Democrats in future elections. “We need to start organizing … We have the opportunity to, in-state, in two years, take back the legislature,” one of the women said, prompting applause from her companions.

The event was reminiscent of the response to Trump winning his first term in 2016.

Less than 24 hours after Trump was declared the winner of the 2024 election, Democrats and Never-Trumpers took to social media to try launching yet another “resistance” to the president-elect. These included calls for legal action and online organization.

VIDEO: ‘Shut It Down’: Vivek Ramaswamy Talks To Tucker About ‘Mega Reorganization’ Of Federal Bureaucracy

Former 2024 Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy spoke to political commentator and Daily Caller Co-Founder Tucker Carlson about the “mega reorganization” of federal bureaucracy in an interview released Friday.

President-elect Donald Trump swept all seven battleground states, won the popular vote and achieved a Republican majority in the Senate. Ramaswamy detailed how the incoming administration could eliminate and separate federal agencies from Washington, D.C. to make systemic change.

“I think many of those agencies should not exist. Many of them that do continue to exist absolutely should be moved to other parts of the country,” he told Carlson.

Ramaswamy said the Office of the Surgeon General and the U.S. Department of Agriculture should not be in D.C. He also named the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services among those in need of major reforms.

“I think you’re wrongfully insulated in Washington, D.C.,” Ramaswamy said before mentioning that the U.S. Department of Education should be eliminated entirely.

“I wouldn’t want to start this process of just saying, okay, let’s move them out of Washington, D.C., as some sort of polite, genteel way of avoiding and sidestepping the thing that we actually need to do, which is bring a jackhammer and a chainsaw to the whole thing,” he added.

“But even those that do continue to exist, you would actually have a lot more accountability to the people and probably even some kind of stimulus, if you will, in parts of the country that wouldn’t mind a little bit of that growth getting out of D.C. and come into their own backyard,” Ramaswamy said.

Ramaswamy said many federal employees would quit on their own if they were required to go into the office to work every day. He suggested Trump fire approximately 75% of federal employees immediately to prevent his administration from easing into bureaucracy on day one. 

“Department of Education is a good example,” Ramaswamy told Carlson. “Shut it down. Send the money back. Workforce training can move to the Department of Labor and loan collections can move to Treasury.”

“It’s just a mass opportunity for a mega reorganization and thereby downsizing of this bureaucracy. And it’s a one-way ratchet because it’s not like if another president comes back, they can write that back into existence by fiat. They’d actually have to go through Congress to do it,” he said.

Ramaswamy revealed he would like to be involved in reshaping the federal government in Trump’s incoming administration.

“Would you be involved in this effort?” Carlson asked.

“I’d like to be, yeah, absolutely. I’ve given it a lot of thought. It was the centerpiece of my presidential campaign. I spent a year and a half of my life. It was probably the most. I mean, I took a lot of positions on a lot of things, but this is probably the single most useful and certainly personally important to me, part of the policy aspect of my campaign last year,” Ramaswamy responded. “And yes, I have been involved, let’s just say, in recent months. So, this is laying out what the blueprint should look like.”

Citizenry Participation in Times of Political Turmoil

The political landscape of America has grown more divisive and tense in the last couple of decades. Polarizing views on governmental policies, social issues, and the interpretation of the Constitution have led many citizens to question the path that the nation is taking. This period of political discord illustrates quite poignantly the critical need for healthy civic engagement in its many forms, including—but not limited to—voting, education, and active community involvement. Democratically, civic engagement enables citizens to steer government activities toward policy, social, and economic fairness through the integrity of the democratic process.

In periods when political situations become turbulent, being a citizen means much more than casting votes every few years; rather, it is time for active, informed involvement in public life. Such engagement helps keep the government accountable and ensures democracy serves the will of all the people, not just a select few. Only when a citizen understands how an overreaching government, along with shifting values and political ideologies, can affect freedom and national identity are they prepared to make informed decisions, advocate for change, and thereby sustain democracy both in spirit and practice.

Government tyranny, historically defined, is the oppressive or unjust use of power by those in authority.

The very roots of the American founding are based on an innate resistance to tyranny derived from the experiences colonials had under British rule. The Declaration of Independence and the Constitution intended to offer these citizens protection against increasing power, which would have been a suicidal ingredient in eroding individual freedoms. History reminds us that resistance against such trends is requisite for preserving liberty when the government forgets constitutional rights.

The last few decades have seen glaring governmental overreach against democratic administrations. Examples include expanded surveillance policies under the Patriot Act, controversial expansions of executive authority, and healthcare mandates perceived as intrusive to personal choice. Such extended government reach into citizens’ private lives, at the expense of individual freedoms, under the pretext of protecting or benefiting the public, can sometimes result in a perceived trespass on civil liberties.

Active citizen monitoring of government policies and practices is more critical today than ever, especially in large settings. This vigilance requires people to be more aware and to take action by informing themselves about policies, raising their concerns, and engaging in discussions about government behavior. Freedom can be further secured through civic engagement tools such as public forums, online petitions, and peaceful protests by keeping things open and accountable. The more people are informed and involved, the more democratic their country will be, and this will serve as a damper on the tendency of government power to trespass on the rights of its citizenry.

Sketched within this divide over the last couple of years—especially under administrations such as those of Obama and Biden—lies a noticeable shift in policy approaches and priorities, placing greater emphasis on a larger and more expansive governmental role in areas traditionally managed at the state or local levels, according to many critics. Among other issues, federal power has been extended to healthcare reform, economic stimulus packages, and environmental regulations—all of which have sparked debate about their consistency with limited government and personal responsibility principles.

The destruction of traditional American values that persist in the principles enshrined in the Constitution has led to the erosion of long-held cultural beliefs about family, religion, and freedom of speech. These cultural shifts encourage fears about what this could mean for the future of American identity. Open discourse and a commitment to sustaining constitutional rights as society continues to evolve will allow these values to endure.

Civic engagement plays a vital role; citizens must advocate for the re-election of these principles in government actions and policies.

The policy debates feed the necessity of citizens to weigh and engage with the ideologies informing national policy.

To this, the Republican Party adopts a more moderate outlook: limiting government intervention to a minimum, reducing taxes, and promoting individual rights. Republicans advocate for a free-market economy and personal responsibility. Unlike the Democrats’ emphasis on state-driven approaches, the Republican perspective clings to beliefs in the power of individuals and their communities to effect change. The party attracted those wary of centralized authority during political turmoil through its defense of traditional American values and limited government. This ideological gap presents a clear choice to the electorate. It also underlines the role of civic involvement in the party platform and policy articulation. Through civic engagement, the people ensure that both parties remain true to American values and ideals by pressing for answers that effectively balance freedom and progress.

The political tension America is experiencing today clearly indicates that mere passive observation will no longer suffice.

By actively participating in democratic processes, citizens ensure that government activities reflect their values and that power is a privilege granted by the people, not an authority imposed upon them.

Each citizen has responsibilities to embrace, including voting, being well-informed, voicing opinions for policy change, and holding leaders accountable. Democracy works best when the public participates, as history has repeatedly proven.

During political unrest, participation serves as a duty and a shield for freedom and democracy, perpetuating the nation’s founding principles for generations.

ROOKE: Harris Campaign’s 11th Hour Looks Like A Nightmare

With just eight days left in the presidential election, there are clear signs that Vice President Kamala Harris is on unsteady ground.

Democrats started whispering to their friends in the corporate press about their election-day fears that Harris could lose to former President Donald Trump.

“A growing number of top Democrats tell us privately they feel Vice President Harris will lose — even though polls show a coin-toss finish 11 days from now,” Axios reported. “Democrats admit they tend to be hand-wringing, bed-wetting, doomsdayers. But what’s striking is how our private conversations with Democrats inside and outside her campaign reveal broad concern that little she does, says — or tries — seems to move the needle.”

It’s never a good sign when Democrats (even anonymously) tell the media their candidate is going to lose and that nothing she does “seems to move the needle.” The polling shows that while the election is still close and could go either way, Trump has a shot to win not only the Electoral College vote but also the popular vote.

The RealClear polling average has Trump up just 0.2% in the national poll, the first time he’s led since Harris first entered the race. EmersonNY Times/Sienna and CNN all have polls showing that Harris and Trump are tied for the popular vote. Meanwhile, The Wall Street Journal and Forbes polls both show that Trump wins the popular vote by two points.

A Republican presidential candidate hasn’t won the popular vote since former President George W. Bush in 2004. Trump’s support was on full display Sunday in Manhattan when voters turned out in droves, occupying block after block in dark blue New York City wearing MAGA hats and other Trump gear to hear him speak.

The media did their usual dog and pony show, attempting to connect Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally to the Nazi Party rally held there in 1930. Outside of Harris’ staunch supporters, regular voters see this rhetoric for what it is — Democrat propaganda. It’s hard to make people believe the lie that “Trump is a Nazi” when there are supporters from every race and religion in the crowd.

To make matters worse for Harris, CNN reported that executives from major Big Tech firms, like Apple, Meta, Google, and Amazon, have all recently knocked on Trump’s door.

Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg talked with Trump after he survived his first assassination attempt in July. Apple CEO Tim Cook reportedly called Trump to discuss his company’s legal issues in Italy. Google CEO Sundar Pichai contacted Trump about his dominance in Google’s algorithm after his appearance at the Pennsylvania McDonald’s, the former president said. Amazon CEO Andy Jassy even called Trump to “check in,” the outlet reported.

“There are some that seem to be waking up to the fact that, like, ‘Holy sh*t, this guy might get elected again. I don’t want to have him, his administration, going after us,’” a person close to Trump told CNN. “What he’s saying out loud, I think they hear, and they’re taking it seriously.”

Jeff Bezos, the billionaire owner of Amazon and The Washington Post, blocked his outlet’s editorial team from endorsing Harris for president. Robert Kagan, a member of the opinions section who resigned in protest, told CNN Friday, “This is obviously an effort by Jeff Bezos to curry favor with Donald Trump in the anticipation of his possible victory.”

The New York Post reported this morning that Bezos attended a call with reporters upset over his decision to stay out of the race, giving them a “mandate to add more conservative voices to its opinion section.”

While it’s impossible to predict the outcome of the 2024 election, it has to terrify Democrats to see their national popularity slipping to a man they claim is a threat to (big D) democracy.

Harris is heading into Nov. 5 without the popular vote lead she needs to help push her over the line in critical swing states, without the explicit support from corporate media outlets and with the knowledge that even Big Tech CEOs are lining up outside Trump’s office to “check-in.”

DISGUSTING: Kamala Goes Full On Hitler — Literally

You have to wonder how these contemptuous louts think they can actually pull off these D level evil clown show. It seems Washington and Hollywood share the same bankrupt ‘talent,’ churning out similar garbage.

As a Jew, I am outraged that the greatest friend the Jews ever had in the White House would be smeared with these Hitlerisms from a political party that has more Jewish blood on its hands than at any time in American history.

Calling Trump Hitler is no different than the Nazis calling Jews the oppressors and aggressors.

The Harris-Biden regime is leaking Israel’s top secret plans to Iran, an Islamic mullahcracy that has repeatedly vowed to annihilate the Jewish state.

They have championed pogroms in this country and supported pro-terror Jew hating riots in colleges across America 

So who is Hitler here?

And Now The Atlantic Might Become Engulfed in a Journalistic Scandal for This Fake Story

By: Matt Vespa  |  Townhall. October 23, 2024:

This incident is entertaining but also ghoulish. You want to cheer the demise of a facially untrue liberal media narrative, though it also involves the death of an American service member. The Atlantic is back to its usual game of trying to manufacture a total myth to damage Donald Trump. The publication was the source for the infamous and equally false ‘losers and suckers’ lie in 2020.

The headline for this tall tale goes as follows: “Trump: ‘I Need the Kind of Generals That Hitler Had.’”  Yet, the lead is about the grisly death of U.S. Army Specialist Vanessa Guillén, who was murdered by another soldier, Aaron David Robinson, who bludgeoned her to death in 2020. Her remains were later dismembered and burned by Robinson, who later committed suicide, and his accomplice Cecily Aguilar:

Guillén, the daughter of Mexican immigrants, grew up in Houston, and her murder sparked outrage across Texas and beyond. Fort Hood had become known as a particularly perilous assignment for female soldiers, and members of Congress took up the cause of reform. Shortly after her remains were discovered, President Donald Trump himself invited the Guillén family to the White House. With Guillén’s mother seated beside him, Trump spent 25 minutes with the family as television cameras recorded the scene.

In the meeting, Trump maintained a dignified posture and expressed sympathy to Guillén’s mother. “I saw what happened to your daughter Vanessa, who was a spectacular person, and respected and loved by everybody, including in the military,” Trump said. Later in the conversation, he made a promise: “If I can help you out with the funeral, I’ll help—I’ll help you with that,” he said. “I’ll help you out. Financially, I’ll help you.”

[…]

In an Oval Office meeting on December 4, 2020, officials gathered to discuss a separate national-security issue. Toward the end of the discussion, Trump asked for an update on the McCarthy investigation. Christopher Miller, the acting secretary of defense (Trump had fired his predecessor, Mark Esper, three weeks earlier, writing in a tweet, “Mark Esper has been terminated”), was in attendance, along with Miller’s chief of staff, Kash Patel. At a certain point, according to two people present at the meeting, Trump asked, “Did they bill us for the funeral? What did it cost?”

According to attendees, and to contemporaneous notes of the meeting taken by a participant, an aide answered: Yes, we received a bill; the funeral cost $60,000.

Trump became angry. “It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” He turned to his chief of staff, Mark Meadows, and issued an order: “Don’t pay it!” Later that day, he was still agitated. “Can you believe it?” he said, according to a witness. “Fucking people, trying to rip me off.”

Khawam, the family attorney, told me she sent the bill to the White House, but no money was ever received by the family from Trump. Some of the costs, Khawam said, were covered by the Army (which offered, she said, to allow Guillén to be buried at Arlington National Cemetery) and some were covered by donations. Ultimately, Guillén was buried in Houston

Only a Trump-deranged lunatic would believe this myth. The kill shot came from Guillen’s sister, Maya, who expressed disgust that Vanessa’s death would be exploited to score political points. She also said that Trump “did nothing but show respect to my family & Vanessa. In fact, I voted for President Trump today.”

Get wrecked, Atlantic. The headline, the lead—it’s just so outrageous that we don’t even need to get to the Hitler part. It’s all been said before, and we know it’s a total lie. If the lead is shoddy, so is the rest of this shambolic hit job. What a circus.

New Poll Spells Major Trouble For Harris With Unlikely Demographic

Former President Donald Trump is maintaining a small lead over Vice President Kamala Harris among an unlikely demographic as her campaign reportedly worries about her chances in key swing states, according to a new Arab News/YouGov poll obtained by Semafor.

In a new Arab News/YouGov poll, 45% of Arab American voters said they are more likely to vote for Trump, compared to 43% who said they will likely vote for Harris. More Arab Americans, 39%, think Trump will “successfully resolve the Israel-Palestine conflict,” compared to Harris who has 33% of the community’s support on this question, the poll shows. Two weeks before the election, the Harris campaign is worried about the vice president’s chances in the “blue wall,” such as Michigan, where the Muslim community is prominent, three sources with knowledge of the campaign’s strategy told NBC News.

“There has been a thought that maybe Michigan or Wisconsin will fall off,” a senior Harris campaign official told NBC News, emphasizing that there are real concerns over her path to victory if Michigan goes for Trump while Wisconsin and Pennsylvania stay blue.

Of likely Arab American voters, 4% of respondents said they would cast their vote for third-party candidate Jill Stein and 6% said they were still undecided, according to the poll. Arab News/YouGov surveyed 500 Arab Americans nationally between Sept. 26 and Oct. 1 2024 and the poll has a margin of error of 5.93%.

Muslim Americans in Michigan are making an effort to flip the state for Trump in protest of the Biden-Harris administration’s Middle East policy. One activist organization, Drive for 75, has calculated that if 75% of its community can turn out to the polls then the vice president has a 99.9% chance of losing, Rex Nazarko, who is heading up the effort, previously told the Daily Caller.

“What was a guarantee for [a Harris loss] to happen? We tried with different percentages and different turnouts, and with the 75% number, again, accounting only for the Muslim community, not other communities, not other allies, not other progressives. It essentially guaranteed a 99.9% likelihood of the vice president losing the election in Michigan, if 75% of [the community turned out],” Nazarko told the Caller, explaining that they ran numerous mathematical simulations to inform their strategy.

“We ran that simulation 10,000 times, and almost every time that was the case. So that’s how we got the Drive for 75 call to action and idea,” he explained.

As a part of the effort to flip the state, Muslim activist organizations are pushing their community to vote for Green Party candidate Dr. Jill Stein, or even Trump, they told the Daily Caller. Abandon Harris, one of those groups trying to spoil Harris’ election chances, threw its support behind Stein, who also has the backing of some socialist groups in the U.S. due to her anti-capitalist economic positioning.

“We need to be clear about what our goals are, we are not in a position to win the White House. But we do have a real opportunity to win something historic. We could deny Kamala Harris the state of Michigan,” Kshama Sawant, a former Seattle City Council Member and self-described socialist, said to cheers at a recent rally for Stein.

A Harris campaign spokesperson denied NBC News’ report that there were concerns over their ability to win Michigan.

“We absolutely are competing to win Michigan,” Harris campaign spokeswoman Lauren Hitt told NBC News, pointing to the vice president’s recent stops in the state. “We think we will win Michigan.”

The vice president has recently campaigned across key swing states including Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin alongside former Republican Wyoming Rep. Liz Cheney.

Alongside Cheney, her father, former Vice President Dick Cheney previously endorsed Harris, though the endorsement might not have the positive effect the campaign is hoping to have, one Michigander told the Caller.

“Here’s the new thing going around, people are saying that, ‘hello, she’s been endorsed by Dick Cheney.’ That tells you everything you need to know about this woman: that her intentions are war,” Vice chair of the 12th Congressional District Republican Committee Stephanie Butler, who is married to a Muslim, told the Caller.

Trump took to TruthSocial Monday to give a message to Arab and Muslim American voters ahead of the election on Harris’ Middle East policy.

“Arab Voters are very upset that Comrade Kamala Harris, the Worst Vice President in the History of the United States and a Low IQ individual, is campaigning with ‘dumb as a rock’ War Hawk, Liz Cheney, who, like her father, the man that pushed Bush to ridiculously go to War in the Middle East, also wants to go to War with every Muslim Country known to mankind,” Trump wrote.

“If Kamala gets four more years, the Middle East will spend the next four decades going up in flames, and your kids will be going off to war, maybe even a Third World War, something that will never happen with President Donald J. Trump in charge. For our country’s sake, and for your kids, Vote Trump for PEACE!” the former president wrote.

Voter Fraud—The ONLY Issue That Matters in 2024

No, it’s not “the economy, stupid,” in spite of the schizophrenic stock market since our remarkably resilient capitalistic economy ran head into the socialist-cum-communist Biden-Harris regime, with its $1.8-trillion deficit.

And no, it’s not domestic policy, where we have had the luxury of being on the receiving end of:

  • High taxes.
  • High food prices.
  • High gas prices.
  • Sky-high regulations.
  • Alarmingly high crime rates throughout the country, particularly in states run by Democrats, where arrests are few, bail is nonexistent, and raging criminals enjoy no consequences for their assaults, rapes, murders, racist attacks, et al.
  • Eleven million illegal and unvetted aliens are further draining our economy  thanks to the largesse of this regime, which is housing them in fancy hotels, providing food, healthcare, iPhones, education for their children, even monthly stipends that are higher than what American families and veterans receive.

And no, it’s not foreign policy in which:

  • We’ve spent trillions of dollars supporting thugs like Zelenskyy in Ukraine but couldn’t find the funds, as ace investigative journalist Kelleigh Nelson spells out, to help the ravaged victims of the government-manipulated hurricanes Helene and Milton in several southern “red” states. Talk about a pre-election October Surprise!
  • There are now five wars that didn’t exist four years ago—in Yemen, Darfur, Myanmar, Ukraine, and Israel… costing us more trillions of dollars and precious lives.
  • The Biden-Harris regime is indefensibly antagonistic to our trusted and invaluable ally, Israel, as they have waffled on their support and threatened an arms embargo for that tiny Jewish state, surrounded and at war with seven menacing enemies whose charters call for its complete annihilation and death to every Jew on earth. And yet a president who threatens Israel not to destroy the Iranian nukes.

CRUNCH TIME

Clearly, the only thing Democrats have cared about for the past hundred years is winning elections at any cost, the better to inflict their strangulating socialist/communist and now Islamist style of government on the American people.

And in the past four years in particular, they’ve been maniacally obsessed with lodging phony lawsuits against President Trump in order to ensure that he is not reelected, even if the perpetual sore losers of the left have to buy the guns they say they hate in order to assassinate him.

Why? Because the business mogul and non-politician Citizen Trump won the 2016 election by exposing:

  • “The Swamp’s” systemic lawlessness, corruption, and treason.
  • The Democrats’ America-Last policies.
  • The leftist bias of the bought-and-paid-for Media Whores.
  • The Democrat racism that has kept blacks uneducated, impoverished, and imprisoned for decades on end because of the welfare system they created that promises food, housing, education, medical care, et al, to women and says they can have as many children as they desire, with only one iron-clad rule: if you get married, you lose all benefits! Hence, tragically, the decades of broken families.
  • The horrific trade deals that benefited foreign nations, but not America .
  • The fallacy that no Mideast peace is possible without striking a deal with the hostile-to-Israel Arabs who insist on calling themselves “Palestinians.” Really? See President Trump’s colossally successful Abraham Accords.
  • The craven deals that made our country dependent on foreign oil by––POOF! ––making America completely energy independent.

As I often and regretfully state, because of space limitations, the above is the short list.

METHOD TO THEIR MADNESS

Dozens of books have spelled out in scandalous detail how Democrats have stolen elections over the past many decades by enlisting the votes of illegal aliens, absentee voters who simply don’t exist, and of course dead voters.

Among the most riveting are:

Then there is Ballot Harvesting, a scheme exclusively used by Democrats to, ahem, win elections. How does it work? According to CA political commentator Stephen Frank, someone––campaign worker, minor, illegal, etc.––goes door to door to “help” people fill out ballots that strangely favor Democrats, and refuses to collect ballots from anyone they suspect of voting the “wrong” way. They even pay them to vote the “right way.”

Intimidation is common and nothing stops them from altering ballots or throwing out ballots for the undesired candidate.

According to the National Conference of State Legislatures, in 2020, 26 states allowed this fraudulence, a practice that was aggressively and successfully challenged by Tom Fitton of electionintegrity@judicialwatch.org.

Not to omit the now-defunct ACORN (Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now)—a massive group of over 500,000 members which operated nationwide since 1970, registering voters and helping people sign up for government-financed programs.

ACORN was exposed for its criminal activities in 2009 by James O’Keefe, founder of The Veritas Project, resulting in multiple convictions for massive voter fraud in several states, and it closed its doors in 2010, although it is believed that splinter groups formed and are active to this day.

Writer Barbara Kralis maintains that “America’s election mail-in ballot scam has been a huge problem the last four national elections. Democrats and organized union officials keep ‘miraculously’ finding lost mail-in ballot boxes (fake ballots) on the days following each of the last four elections,” leading to highly suspect Democrat victories. And Dinesh D’Souza’s film, “2000 Mules,”  shows in real time how the massive fraud of the 2020 election was executed. Jaw-dropping!

LET ME COUNT THE WAYS

Just the other day, Kamala Harris’s Department of Justice––in a can’t-make-it-up act––sued the state of Virginia  for removing illegals from its voter rolls!

The last time I kept track of such desperate––and illegal––measures was just a few years ago, and here is just a tiny sampling of the vote-rigging methods used exclusively by Democrats that I discovered:

You get the picture.

PARTNERS IN CRIME

Linda Goudsmit, author of The Book of Humanitarian Hoaxes: Killing America with ‘Kindness‘ and the just-released Space Is No Longer the Final Frontier-Reality Is, sees the upcoming election as another “sinister leftist, Islamist, globalist attack on America.”

“We are only weeks away from the 2024 election,” she said, and “the enemies of America are desperate and behaving like cornered animals poised for attack. Their survival is at stake because if POTUS 45 is reelected, he will take down the Deep State and expose them all. They know it and Trump knows it.”

Goudsmit’s point is really the crux of the Democrats’ desperation these past four years. With a Trump victory, you can be sure that over the next few months, the powers-that-be will be handing out dozens of indictments to the many criminals from Barack Obama’s Federal Bureau of Investigation, Department of Justice, Central Intelligence Agency, Homeland Security, State Department, and every other department of our government, including the Military, in which Obama implanted his hate-America agents to commit either sedition or treason in the name of actualizing a genuine coup d’état against both a sitting president and America the Beautiful itself

With now three assassination attempts, I only hope that President Trump has a dozen  private armed guards and a food taster!

A member of the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has asked the body’s chair to take up a complaint filed with the FCC to compel CBS to release the full transcript from its “60 Minutes” interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, the Daily Caller News Foundation learned first.

CBS aired two different broadcasts with separate answers from Harris in response to the same question from “60 Minutes” interviewer Bill Whitaker on whether Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is “listening” to the Biden-Harris administration. FCC Commissioner Nathan Simington told the DCNF that while the commission often receives frivolous complaints alleging news distortion, the complaint lodged on Oct. 16 by the Center for American Rights (CAR) against WCBS, CBS’ New York subsidiary, is substantively different and should not be dismissed at face value.

“Well, Bill, the work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by, or a result of, many things including our advocacy for what needs to happen in the region,” Harris responded in a previewed clip of the “60 Minutes” interview that aired on CBS’ “Face the Nation” on Sunday, Oct. 6.

“We are not gonna stop pursuing what is necessary for the United States to be clear about where we stand on the need for this war to end, “Harris answered during the “60 Minutes” broadcast that aired the following night in primetime.

“The FCC does not regulate, or really even respond to, allegations of politically unfavorable coverage or legitimate editorial discretion,” Simington wrote in a statement to the DCNF. “The recent complaint regarding WCBS-TV raises a fully different set of issues regarding whether or not coverage was intentionally distorted: reporting that something was said in response to a question that literally was not. I don’t know whether that’s true, but it’s a different issue.”

A person familiar with the FCC told the DCNF that while CAR’s complaint could potentially move forward, the Democratic chair of the commission, Jessica Rosenworcel, is unlikely to act on the complaint, especially 18 days before the presidential election. In the event former President Donald Trump returns to the White House, the commission could be given a green light to act on the complaint with a Republican commissioner appointed as chair, the person told the DNCF.

When any of CBS News’ wholly owned and operated broadcast subsidiaries attempt to renew their license under a majority Republican FCC, the commission could put conditions on the license, including compelling the broadcaster to release the “60 Minutes” transcript, according to the person.

CAR’s complaint alleges that because WCBS aired two distinct broadcasts of the Harris interview — one on “Face the Nation” and the other on “60 Minutes” — with different responses from the Democratic candidate, the conflicting answers “amount to deliberate news distortion.”

“CBS crosses a line when its production reaches the point of so transforming an interviewee’s answer that it is a fundamentally different answer. This, CBS may not do,” the CAR complaint states. “Here, CBS has taken a single question and transformed Harris’ answer such the general public no longer has any confidence as to what the Vice President actually said in response to the query.”

“This isn’t just about one interview or one network. This is about the public’s trust in the media on critical issues of national security and international relations during one of the most consequential elections of our time,” Daniel Suhr, CAR president, wrote in a statement to the DCNF. “When broadcasters manipulate interviews and distort reality, it undermines democracy itself. The FCC must act swiftly to restore public confidence in our news media.”

Trump’s campaign has called for CBS subsidiaries’ licenses to be revoked and for the network to release the full interview transcript.

“The American people deserve the full, unedited transcript from Kamala’s sit-down interview,” Karoline Leavitt told The New York Post. “We call upon 60 Minutes and CBS to release it. What do they, and Kamala, have to hide?”

“A giant Fake News Scam by CBS & 60 Minutes. Her REAL ANSWER WAS CRAZY, OR DUMB, so they actually REPLACED it with another answer in order to save her or, at least, make her look better. A FAKE NEWS SCAM, which is totally illegal,” Trump wrote in a Truth Social post on Oct. 10. “TAKE AWAY THE CBS LICENSE. Election Interference. She is a Moron, and the Fake News Media wants to hide that fact. An UNPRECEDENTED SCANDAL!!! The Dems got them to do this and should be forced to concede the Election? WOW!”

CBS has so far declined to release the interview transcript. CBS’ New York subsidiary did not respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.

More Americans Identify as Republican Than Democrat

Once upon a time, the great divide was essentially a political philosophical battle between individualism and statism. No more, now its common sense versus depraved irrationality. Real versus anti-real.

Remember the Republican majority on election night.

More Americans Identify as Republican Than Democrat. Here’s What That Means for the Election.

Rare GOP advantage takes pressure off Trump to win over independent voters

By Aaron Zitner, Wall Street Journal, October 9, 2024 5:00 am ET

Beneath the headline results in many polls, something unusual has turned up with big implications for politics: More voters are calling themselves Republicans than Democrats, suggesting that the GOP has its first durable lead in party identification in more than three decades.

The development gives former President Donald Trump an important structural advantage in the November election. But other factors could prove more important to the outcome. Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris still leads narrowly in many polls, in some cases because she does well with independent voters.

Bill McInturff, a GOP pollster who works on NBC News surveys, first noticed in May that more voters were calling themselves Republicans. “Wow, the biggest deal in polling is when lines cross, and for the first time in decades, Republicans now have the national edge on party ID,” he wrote. He called the development “the underrecognized game-changer for 2024.”

In combined NBC polls this year, Republicans lead by 2 percentage points over Democrats, 42% to 40%, when voters were asked which party they identified with. That compares with Democratic leads of 6 points in 2020, 7 points in 2016 and 9 points in 2012.

“Republicans being 5 to 9 points down on party identification—that is like running uphill,” McInturff said. “We don’t know the election’s outcome, but we know Republicans have a better shot at doing well if party ID is functionally tied, with perhaps the smallest tilt toward Republicans.”

Gallup also found more voters identifying as Republican than Democratic, by 3 points in its July-to-September surveys. It was the first time that the GOP had an advantage in the third quarter before a presidential election in Gallup surveys dating to 1992.

RIGGING 2024: Illegal Immigrants Sent to Swing States In Mass Numbers Under the Biden, Harris Regime

Several swing states are home to large numbers of unauthorized immigrants or have seen a large surge in their numbers since 2021, according to federal court data compiled by the Transactional Records Access Clearinghouse at Syracuse University.

Illegal-immigration surge has cost these swing-state taxpayers billions, study says

By Chris Matthews

Immigration boosts federal tax revenue, but states and localities bear unique costs

Immigration is a central theme in this year’s presidential election, as former President Donald Trump seeks to capitalize on voter discontent over a recent surge in unauthorized immigration to the U.S.

Polling suggests immigration is a top concern for Americans in 2024, and immigration-court data shows that swing states including Pennsylvania, Georgia and Arizona are among those with the greatest increase in unauthorized migrants since 2021.

Winning these bellwether contests could be decisive for Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris, the Democratic nominee, in the November election.

Immigration, both legal and illegal, tends to grow the national economy and improve the federal fiscal budget outlook, according to a July report from the Congressional Budget Office. That’s because even undocumented immigrants typically pay more in income and payroll taxes than they receive in federal benefits.

It’s a different story for many state and local governments.

“The research literature has generally found that increases in immigration raise state and local governments’ spending — particularly on education, health care, and housing — more than their revenues,” the report said.

A record share of Americans said in February that they see illegal immigration as a “critical threat to the vital interests of the United States,” and the issue ranks as the No. 1 most important problem facing the country, according to Gallup.

A separate Gallup poll released last month showed that for the first time since 2005, a majority of Americans would like to see a decrease in all immigration.

[ … ]

The most popular destinations are large states with strong economies, including Texas, Florida, California, Illinois, New Jersey and New York.

But several key swing states have also seen their unauthorized populations grow, according to court filings.

State Unauthorized migrant population Percent increase since 2021 Rank
Georgia 45,747 401% 7
North Carolina 32,681 446% 9
Pennsylvania 25,721 241% 11
Arizona 24,563 734% 13
Nevada 15,931 562% 22
Michigan 13,162 775% 26
Wisconsin 10,768 467% 28

ROOKE: Looming October Surprise Could Wipe Out Kamala’s Campaign

Vice President Kamala Harris is facing a crisis that could end her White House chances.

Harris has billed herself (unsuccessfully) as the candidate most in tune with blue-collar workers despite one of the nation’s largest labor unions declining to endorse her. Now, she is facing a maritime strike that could put a full stop to her bid for the presidency. The Biden-Harris administration is just days away from up to 25,000 dockworkers striking at U.S. ports along the East Coast and the Gulf of Mexico. The strike would wreak havoc on American supply chains and send prices soaring across the country.

The International Longshoremen’s Association announced a historic strike that would force American ports to a screeching halt if the United States Maritime Alliance (USMX) doesn’t meet worker demands for wage and automation protection. If the Biden-Harris administration fails to head their requests, the move could cost the U.S. around $5 billion a day in trade, disrupt America’s supply chain and send inflation through the roof right before the election.

The average American is already suffering under the weight of the Biden-Harris economy. This strike would raise the price of energy, food and shipping by 40-60 percent, according to the Cleveland Federal Reserve.

“A sleeping giant is ready to roar on Tuesday, October 1, 2024, if a new Master Contract Agreement is not in place,” ILA President Harold J. Daggett said in a statement. “My members have been preparing for over a year for that possibility of a strike.”

Sean Higgins, a labor and employment expert at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, told the Daily Caller News Foundation that Americans should expect the Biden-Harris administration to step in and force a deal with ILA and USMX.

Suppose they do weigh in with similar tactics to the bill President Joe Biden signed blocking the 2022 rail strike, imposing a contract on 115,000 rail workers. In that case, it’s likely to upset the union movement ahead of the presidential election.

Rail workers were angry with the Biden-Harris administration’s intervention in their strike, with one roadway mechanic, Reece Murtagh, telling NPR he felt Biden “turned his back on” them.

“Joe relied on us to get him home to his family,” Murtagh said. “But when it was his turn to help us out… to better our life, he turned his back on us.”

This is the most egregious part of Biden’s statement asking Congress to preemptively stop a rail strike. 4 unions representing 55% of rail workforce voted to reject this deal. Dems still control both chambers of Congress & could improve the deal. But Biden explicitly says not to. pic.twitter.com/kdiHwVMiku

— Jeff Schuhrke (@JeffSchuhrke) November 29, 2022

The looming strike puts Harris as a prominent opponent in a fight she can’t win. If her administration steps in and forces ILA to take a deal its workers do not want, it may stave off an economic crisis, but it will hurt her ability to win over a massive voting bloc (blue-collar workers) in swing states like Pennsylvania, North Carolina, Georgia and Virginia, where several major U.S. ports are located. Still, if they don’t intervene, the American family will see their buying power decrease significantly again, pulling more votes away from her campaign.

‘Leading’ Police Group Backing Harris Actually Run By Dem Political Operative

Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign bragged on Monday that a “leading” law enforcement group had endorsed Harris, however, the organization is only a few months old and is run by a veteran Democratic political operative.

Police Leaders for Community Safety, which endorsed Harris on Sept. 23, only launched publicly on June 11, according to a press release from the group. A registration document filed with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) indicates that the organization is led by Gail Hoffman, a long-time Democratic staffer who worked on John Kerry’s 2004 presidential campaign as director of surrogates and in the Clinton administration in various high-level roles, according to a biography on her website.

Hoffman has never worked for a police agency, per her biography.

Despite the organization’s recent founding and ties to the Democratic Party, Fox News Digital, which was given an advance copy of the endorsement, initially described the organization as a “leading law enforcement group,” language that the Harris campaign later used to tout the group’s backing. Days after publication, Fox changed its headline and removed the word “leading,” noting that “Police Leaders for Community Safety is comprised of former law enforcement leaders and not a leading group.”

The Fraternal Order of Police, the nation’s largest law enforcement interest group, took issue with framing Police Leaders for Community Safety as a “leading” organization in a statement to the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“Prior to Police Leaders for Community Safety announcing their endorsement earlier this week, we were totally unfamiliar with the group,” a Fraternal Order of Police spokesperson told the DCNF. “We are very active, and aggressive in fact, in our interactions here in Washington [D.C.] and we’re present at basically every law enforcement-oriented meeting that happens here and we have never crossed paths with this organization nor are we familiar with its goals and objectives.”

The Fraternal Order of Police endorsed former President Donald Trump on Sept. 6, according to a press release. Police Leaders for Community Safety claimed to be “the only national police leadership organization that endorses candidates for political office” when announcing its support of Harris.

Police Leaders for Community Safety defended its status as a leading law enforcement organization, with a spokesperson telling the DCNF that it had been informally organizing since 2022 and filed registration paperwork with the IRS in 2023, with June 2024 representing the group’s public launch. The organization lists a few dozen law enforcement members, virtually all of whom are retired, on its “national advisory board.”

The Fraternal Order of Police, by contrast, had approximately 377,000 members as of this month, per a press release.

A spokesperson for the Harris campaign would not say whether or not it was accurate to call the Police Leaders for Community Safety a “leading” organization, instead pointing out that they had used the same language as Fox. The campaign did not respond to a follow-up inquiry after Fox changed its headline.

Police Leaders for Community Safety justified its nonpartisan bona fides in its statement to the DCNF, claiming that it is “comprised of Democrats, Republicans and independents” and that its endorsements are “based on issues of concern to law enforcement leaders, not on parties.”

All five of the people sitting on the organization’s board of directors, which includes Hoffman, are either Democrats or have a history of making liberal statements. Despite this, Police Leaders for Community Safety describes itself as a “nonpartisan national advocacy organization.”

David Mahoney, the organization’s treasurer, ran as a Democrat to serve as sheriff of Dane County, Wisconsin in 2018, ultimately winning the office. Susan Riseling, the chair of the organization’s board, meanwhile, uses social media almost exclusively to support Democrats and oppose Republicans, sharing posts from left-wing fake news operations like the Palmer Report as well as other large Democratic-aligned accounts like Occupy Democrats and MeidasTouch.

“Now I am a Democrat [because] the Republicans have no ideas beyond hate,” Riseling wrote on Twitter in 2021. “I can not understand any veterans voting Republican,” she said a year later.

Police Leaders for Community Safety vice chair Rick Myers, meanwhile, has used his LinkedIn account to advocate for expanded gun control, calling AR-15s “weapons of mass destruction,” and describing the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot as an “insurrection.”

“Despite the fact that our Founding Fathers had black powder muskets that could only shoot one round without reloading, and fashioned our unique Constitution and its Amendments to ensure our freedoms such that freedom to bear arms was designed for ‘a well regulated militia,’ we continue to allow unfettered weapons of mass destruction among our own citizens,” Myers wrote in 2021, reacting to a mass shooting in his area. “AR-15[s] are killing machines.”

Cynthia Herriott, the organization’s fifth board member, was a registered Democrat as of at least 2021, according to public records.

Herriott, Riseling and Myers are all retired police chiefs.

“Police Leaders for Community Safety is the only national police leadership organization that endorses candidates for political office, and this is the group’s first endorsement,” the group’s endorsement of Harris reads. “This and future endorsements will be based on candidates’ alignment on issues vital to law enforcement.”

Harris praised the defund the police movement multiple times in 2020.

EXCLUSIVE: Walz Administration To Hold Racially Segregated Retreat For ‘BIPOC’ Librarians

Minnesota State Library Services, part of Democratic Gov. Tim Walz’s administration, plans to use public funds to pay for a retreat intended exclusively for “BIPOC” librarians, according to documents obtained exclusively by the Daily Caller News Foundation.

The Walz administration describes the event, which will take place in October, as “a day of professional development and network-building designed specifically for BIPOC library workers of Minnesota,” according to a registration page. Minnesota will use public funds to cover hotel lodging, meals and other fees for those attending the program, state documents show.

“BIPOC” stands for “black, indigenous and people of color.”

A sign-up form for the event allows those seeking to attend the program to select from an assortment of races and sexualities to describe themselves but “heterosexual” and “white” are notably missing from the options available.

Nicole Cooke, a professor of library and information science at the University of South Carolina, is booked as a keynote speaker for the event, according to an agenda obtained by the DCNF.

Cooke has argued that it is “tantamount to malpractice” to allow students to enter the workforce without first being educated on diversity, equity, inclusion and social justice. In 2017, she received a grant to study “racial microaggressions in libraries,” according to a press release.

The professor has a long history of giving presentations on the importance of center racial justice and diversity when managing libraries, according to her personal website. In 2020, she created an “anti-racism resources for all ages” project which includes a number of materials intended to introduce children to the topic.

“Anti-racism” is part of a framework first coined by left-wing academic Ibram X. Kendi that holds anyone not actively resisting what he defines to be racism is a racist. It is impossible to be neutral on the issue of racism, according to Kendi.

Minnesota State Library Services is directed by Tamara Lee who, according to her LinkedIn profile, is “passionate about early literacy and racial equity in libraries” and has expressed support for Kendi’s idea of anti-racism.

Lee co-authored a 2021 piece in Information Today where she argued that “niceness” is a “tool of white supremacy” because she believes it can be used by racists to absolve themselves of wrongdoing. She argued that librarians must take an active role in educating children on racial activism.

“Children are often aware of race long before we think they are,” Lee wrote. “Starting open and honest conversations with them about race early on can prepare them to be anti-racism practitioners their whole lives.”

The state librarian also wrote a paper in 2016 that advocated for making children’s story time “racially diverse, equitable and inclusive.”

Lee is listed as one of the primary points of contact on documents sharing details about the BIPOC exclusive librarian program. She was also involved in planning the event.

Walz is no stranger to using public resources to hold racially segregated events. His Department of Education held “restorative justice” teacher trainings in 2022 that white educators were explicitly barred from attending. The Minnesota Department of Veterans Affairs also held trainings intended to alleviate homelessness among veterans but only invited white people to participate if they were willing to serve as a “stakeholder or ally” to non-white and LGBT veterans.

Lee, the Harris campaign, the Minnesota governor’s office and the Minnesota State Library Service did not respond to the DCNF’s request for comment.

Kamala Harris Backed Total Handgun Ban As San Francisco District Attorney

Vice President Kamala Harris backed a total ban on handguns in San Francisco, California, during her time as the city’s district attorney, according to a story published in the San Jose Mercury News in 2005.

Harris backed San Francisco Proposition H, which would have enacted a total ban on possessing a handgun in San Francisco with few exceptions, as well as the sale, possession, manufacturing and distribution of all firearms and ammunition in the city, according to San Jose Mercury News. Her past support for the measure stands in contrast to her recent insistence during her 2024 presidential campaign that she is “not taking anyone’s guns away” if elected.

The ballot measure passed with 58% of people voting in favor but immediately faced legal challenges from groups such as the National Rifle Association (NRA) and the California Rifle and Pistol Association (CRPA), according to The Reload. The proposal was swiftly struck down in court in 2006, as it was found to have violated the Second Amendment, according to the Office of the City Attorney.

“San Francisco was a leader in proposing gun restrictions at the local level, and she never met a gun control law she didn’t like,” Chuck Michel, president and general counsel of the CRPA who helped fight the measure, told The Reload. “Prop H was the crowning jewel.”

The law would have given San Francisco residents until January 1st, 2006, to surrender their handguns without consequences, according to the proposition. The only people allowed to own handguns would be “security guards, peace officers or active members of the U.S. armed forces.”

Handguns are the most frequently used firearm for self-defense, with 65.9% of defensive gun use cases utilizing them, according to a Georgetown University study conducted in 2021. Additionally, there are on average 1.7 million defensive gun uses per year.

Harris also supported mandatory gun buybacks for so-called “assault weapons” in 2019 during her campaign for the Democratic nomination. However, experts previously told the Daily Caller News Foundation that confiscating so-called “assault weapons” would likely violate the Second Amendment as it would require an underlying ban.

She continues to support an assault weapons ban as well as mandating background checks on customers if a dealer sells more than five guns a year, according to The New York Times in July.

The Harris campaign declined to comment on the record to the DCNF.
