JD Vance Urges Americans to Share 26-Second Clip from Kamala Harris' '60 Minutes' Interview

JD Vance Urges Americans to Share 26-Second Clip from Kamala Harris' '60 Minutes' Interview: 

On one hand, she speaks like an establishment politician who takes great care not to say anything true. At best, she sounds like someone trying to put the most implausible gloss on the ugliest reality. On the other hand, a brilliant liar would not sound like a high-school sophomore in her first public-speaking class. The vice president either knows nothing or cannot communicate what little she does know.

Media Maintains 'Wall of Silence' on First Gentleman #MeToo Scandal | Frontpage Mag

“any suggestion that he would or has ever hit a woman is false.” Daniel Greenfield

Here’s the scorecard so far.

• Doug Emhoff, Kamala’s powerful lawyer hubby, admitted to impregnating his nanny during his first marriage. The status of the child is unknown, but there are allegations that she suffered a miscarriage.
• A recent report described Emhoff hitting an ex-girlfriend in public. The media refused to report on the allegation and only reported on Emhoff’s denial of the allegation.

Instead, the media is reporting on such urgent stories as “Doug Emhoff On Andy Samberg’s ‘SNL’ Impression: “I Approve”, “Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff to visit Arizona” and “Michael Stipe, Jason Isbell Tell Doug Emhoff Why They Endorse Kamala Harris”.

• Isn’t journalism awesome?
• That allegation has been denied, now there’s a new one at the Daily Mail...

'60 Minutes' Interviewer Forced to Remind Kamala Harris 'We're Dealing with the Real World Here': 

To his credit, interviewer Bill Whitaker actually pressed Harris to offer something more than platitudes and preprogrammed talking points in a viral 63-second clip that CBS News released ahead of Monday night’s ballyhooed “60 Minutes” election special that will speak to both Harris and her running mate, the factually-challenged governor of Minnesota, Tim Walz.

Maryland Police To Fork Over More Than $2 Million Back Pay To Female, Black Applicants Who Couldn’t Pass Tests

The Maryland Department of State Police (MDSP) has committed to shell out more than $2 million in back pay to black and female applicants who could not pass state trooper tests as part of a settlement agreement with the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ). - Ireland Owens

• MDSP reached a $2.75 million settlement with the DOJ following claims that the MDSP hiring process violated Title VII of the Civil Rights Act, according to a Wednesday press release from the DOJ. 
• MDSP requires that state trooper candidates successfully complete both written and physical tests, which the DOJ alleged “discriminate” against the black and female candidates who could not pass them.
• MDSP’s Functional Fitness Assessment Test (FFAT) required female applicants to do “push-ups, sit-ups, a seated reach, a trigger pull, and a one-and-a-half mile run,” according to the complaint. Of the candidates, 81% of the men could pass the physical test at least once, while only 51% of female applicants were able to pass the test...

It's their way of lying!-----'Fact check' has become just another word for censorship

“Fact-checking” is like “fake news”: something that is now entirely in the eye of the beholder. - Douglas Murray 

• Much of the media will tell you that they regard their job as being to decide what is true and what is false. 
• But the problem is that most of them aren’t any good at the task they set themselves...

It is true that since the arrival of social media, the role of the media as the “gatekeepers” of what is true has fallen away...
For instance, a story can be “fake” not just because it is untrue, but because it is a story that is either published or not published in order to suit a particular narrative...

Priorities!

 

DISTURBING: Helicopter With Pilots Wearing 'Military Headgear' Sabotages Hurricane Helene Recovery Supplies at NC Distribution Site - Cajun Navy Confirms (VIDEO) | The Gateway Pundit | by Cullen Linebarger

Volunteers in one tiny North Carolina town have revealed a disturbing incident that unfolded Sunday night as the region tries to recover from Hurricane Helene. - Cullen Linebarger

Videos have emerged on social media showing an unidentified helicopter with pilots wearing military-style headgear sabotaging direly needed supplies at a United Cajun Navy distribution site in Burnsville despite volunteers in a seemingly deliberate act of sabotage despite volunteers allegedly designating the area as a “no-fly, no drop” zone just hours before.

• TikTok user @megsnbacn claimed that the chopper flew in just after 7 p.m. while she was conducting a K9 Security round. She stated that the helicopter did not belong to any of them and was unmarked, which is illegal.
• She also stated that 45 minutes before the aircraft arrived, two unidentified SUVs showed up, did a “slow roll” at the entrance of the parking lot, and fled the area. The SUVs, too, did not belong to the volunteers...

FEMA Says "Disinformation" is a Problem - What Disinformation? The Disinformation About the Information... - The Last Refuge

Politico has written an article about FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell, saying disinformation about the federal government response to Hurricane Helene, “is absolutely the worst I have ever seen,” 

Criswell told reporters on a Tuesday morning call. “It’s creating distrust in the federal government, but also the state government, and we have so many first responders that have been working to go out and help these communities,” she added. {link}

• However, if you go read the article fraught with pearl-clutching and protestation, you might curiously discover there is not a single citation for any claimed “disinformation.” {SEE HERE} 

 It is very odd to see FEMA and by extension Politico in their defense, claiming that massive disinformation is running rampant, and yet they do not cite a single example of the disinformation they claim to exist. 

 Seriously, no joke – GO LOOK...

Eco-fools!

 

The NAACP tells black men the White House matters more than their homes | Blaze Media

The NAACP tells black men the White House matters more than their homes | Blaze Media: 

This is exactly what I have come to expect from progressive institutions. But what makes this ad so disappointing is the fact that the NAACP doesn’t highlight the importance of fathers at any other time. I’ve written before how civil rights organizations promote abortion with far more passion than they promote marriage and family. This is more of the same.

The NAACP’s campaign has nothing to do with fathers, other than using them as political tools to get Kamala Harris elected president. A real “Dear Dad” campaign meant to uplift black fathers and families would sound far different from the ad that is circulating right now. Here’s how it might sound.

The Democrats' Rhetoric Is Insane and Inciting David Strom

I am sure it is carefully calculated to not meet the legal standard of incitement, but it is crystal clear that the establishment wants Donald Trump to be the target of yet another assassination attempt.
I'm not joking or exaggerating...

MSNBC is the worst, of course, but hardly the only network to platform what can only be described as hateful rhetoric calculated to inspire an unhinged person to take Trump out.

That is not normal "news" or commentary. 

Trump is not going to use Seal Team Six to round up his enemies, and Seal Team Six wouldn't do it. 

Yet this is now a common refrain on the "news" channel and on Joe Biden's favorite TV show.

Mike Rowe and PBS star expose how American public schools damage boys | Blaze Media: 

On these points, O’Connor is absolutely right. As a society, we are failing young men. Starting in elementary school, they are labeled as disruptive, toxic, and responsible for society’s problems, essentially made to feel worthless. Prevailing educational theories claim no difference exists between males and females, leaving young men of all races behind.

O’Connor is also right about the suicide rate among young men. The rate for those aged 15-24 jumped by more than 50% from 2001 to 2021. According to the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, "In 2022, men died by suicide 3.85 times more than women.”

The labor force participation rate among prime working-age men (25-54) continues to decline rapidly. A Bipartisan Policy Center-Artemis survey conducted earlier this year found that 57% of men who have stopped looking for work cite physical and mental health issues as the reason.

Even Benson admitted that her actions could lead to FRAUD - George@BehizyTweets 

Benson's election procedure manual for the 2024 election made it a suggestion instead of a requirement for election workers to verify the authenticity of absentee ballots by comparing stub numbers...

"In fact, defendants admitted during the hearing that they do not track instances of mismatched ballots or ballots with missing stubs."...

The amount of times courts have declared Jocelyn Benson's election manuals to be unlawful is astounding. She is quickly becoming my #1 draft pick for America's most corrupt Secretary of State.
