Watch: Contributor Drops Hammer on Obamas in Front of CNN Panel, Says Truth That Can't Be Denied After DNC Speech
Watch: Contributor Drops Hammer on Obamas in Front of CNN Panel, Says Truth That Can't Be Denied After DNC Speech:
Everyone knows the opposition Trump faced during the four years he was in office between the Obama/Biden and Biden/Harris administrations, and he still was able to get so much done.
Opposing him during his first two years in office was the ridiculous Russiagate probe, which of course ultimately proved to be a complete fabrication cooked up to smear Trump.
Then Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats took back control of the House in 2018 and impeached Trump twice, blocked construction of the border wall and sought to thwart him in a myriad of other ways.
And despite all of that, he oversaw the best U.S. economy since the 1990s, instituted the highest level of border security in the nation’s history and oversaw the outbreak of peace in the Middle East while keeping Russia, China, North Korea and Iran at bay.

Are submarine cables through Lake Michigan the best way to help Michigan go green? | WOODTV.comGRAND RAPIDS, Mich. (WOOD) — The MI Healthy Climate Plan calls for the state to become carbon neutral by 2050.
Company officials argue energy bills could skyrocket and blackouts could become more common if Michigan’s electric grid doesn’t adapt, become more flexible and create more pathways to import electricity...
- A big process to meeting that goal is weaning off of fossil fuels and switching to renewable sources. One local group has a big plan to help the state get there.

WATCH: U.S. news giant admits to serious lie about Trump * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
A report at the Twitchy site explained, "The memo went out to Democrats the first week of July: mention the Heritage Foundation's Project 2025 as much as possible while presenting as an expanded version of 'The Handmaid's Tale.' President Joe Biden even put on his aviators and shot a five-second video with a link to look up Project 2025, which CBS News and others called a 'blueprint' for a second Trump term."

Kamala's policy positions go public, and she's not going to like it * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh
Kamala's policy positions go public, and she's not going to like it * WorldNetDaily * by Bob Unruh:
"Border Czar Kamala Harris opened the southern border to illegal alien criminals and deadly fentanyl, and as vice president, was the tie-breaking vote for far-left spending bills that raised taxes and sent prices skyrocketing for families across the country. While Harris has tried to rewrite history on her extreme record, she can't hide from her promises to set murderers free, dismantle America's border security, raise costs with massive spending bills, bring back the Green New Deal Scam, eliminate private health insurance, and more."

CA Dems want to add GPS tracking to digital license plates | Blaze Media:
The plates boasted features predominantly pertaining to the digital renewal of registration as opposed to a traditional license plate sticker system or paper registration.
NPR reported at the time that the plates were capable of being equipped with GPS tracking for employers or for the owner themselves. Now, Assemblywoman Wilson is advocating for new legislation, AB 3138, which would have any vehicle that is fitted with one of the digital plates include "vehicle location technology."
Who Is 'Destroying Democracy in Darkness?' - Victor Davis Hanson
The 2023-2024 campaign season is not just the strangest on record, it's also arguably the most anti-democratic. - Victor Davis Hanson 
Ostensibly, the Democratic Party has claimed over the last decade that former President Donald Trump posed a continued and existential threat to the republic.
That allegation subsequently justified a variety of anti-democratic means to neuter his first two presidential candidacies, his presidency, and now his third and final run for the White House.

- A near decade ago, we witnessed the 2015-2016 Hillary Clinton/Democratic National Committee/FBI-assisted effort to plant the false accusation of Trump-Russian collusion to warp the 2016 election...
- On the eve of the 2020 election, the left next birthed the Russian laptop disinformation campaign. That hoax also warped a presidential debate with false charges that Hunter Biden's own incriminating laptop was once again the work of Russians seeking to conspire with Trump.
Much here! -----Neurosis and the Curley Effect - by Glenn Harlan Reynolds
Neurosis and the Curley Effect - by Glenn Harlan Reynolds
As this Harvard paper notes,
“James Michael Curley, a four-time mayor of Boston, used wasteful redistribution to his poor Irish constituents and incendiary rhetoric to encourage richer citizens to emigrate from Boston, thereby shaping the electorate in his favor. As a consequence, Boston stagnated, but Curley kept winning elections. . . . We call this strategy—increasing the relative size of one’s political base through distortionary, wealth-reducing policies—the Curley effect. But it is hardly unique to Curley.”
Shades of the early 1930s?-----China Has Built the Strongest Military in the Indo-Pacific | RealClearDefense
Too often, Chinese and U.S. military power is compared on a global scale, where the U.S. military, equipped and trained to project power across the planet, has the clear advantage. - Mackenzie Eaglen
- China has increasingly demonstrated its ability to build modern military capabilities at size and scale, and the ability to project that power regionally.
- China now fields the largest army, navy and ground-based rocket force in the world.
- Beijing has also been hard at work to build a sophisticated hypersonic missile arsenal and to triple its nuclear arsenal by 2030.
- By comparison, while China rapidly builds military capacity, the U.S. military is rapidly shrinking across the services...

Tim Walz Caught in Sinister Lie Regarding the Conception of His Children
Tim Walz Caught in Sinister Lie Regarding the Conception of His Children:
Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz seems to have a terrible habit of lying in the worst and most easily disproven way.
After becoming the VP pick for current-Vice President and Democrat nominee for November Kamala Harris, much of Walz’s previous record in the military and public service came to light in a less-than-flattering manner.
Whether it be lying about his DUI arrest or about his rank upon retirement from the military, Walz shares a common trait with his running mate in that both totally lack principle and will say or do whatever is necessary to obtain power.
10 Lies Leftists Tell You - American Thinker
As Steely Dan might say, the things that pass for knowledge today, I can’t understand. It’s all lies, falsehoods, and misdirection on tap, served fresh 24/7/365. - Pete McArdle
Lie #1: Joe Biden was a great president, a dedicated public servant who put country first and stepped aside so that Kamala Harris’s brilliance could save our democracy.
Well, that’s five lies all tied up in one bundle! Joe Biden is easily the worst president in my lifetime, possibly ever. He and his family got rich, not by serving anyone, but by grifting on his various political offices...
Lie #2: Man-made climate change will make the Earth unlivable for humans in (pick one) 5, 10, 39, or 5,000 years.
...Our most brilliant minds can’t predict tomorrow’s weather with precision..
Lie #3: Democrats love black people...
