Poll: Shockingly Few Voters Want Joe Biden to Run Again

/0 Comments/in , /by

A new poll asking registered voters their preference for the 2024 Democratic Party presidential nomination found only 22% favored President Biden.

In the I&I/TIPP poll, 12% named Vice President Kamala Harris and the rest were in single digits.

Meanwhile, the RealClearPolitics average of major polls shows Biden’s approval rating at 42.3% and his disapproval at 52.2%. By comparison, Biden’s unfavorability rating in March was about 36%.

A recent survey by the Trafalgar Group, which was among the most accurate in 2020, found just 36% of voters back Biden while 59% disapprove.

In the I&I/TIPP poll on Democratic presidential candidates, only 8% of independents and other non-major party voters want Biden to be the Democratic nominee. And 10% want Harris instead. The crucial independent swing voter comprises a third or more of voters. (Read more from “Poll: Shockingly Few Voters Want Joe Biden to Run Again” HERE)

DOJ Announces It’s Suing Critical GOP State Over New Congressional Map

/0 Comments/in , /by

Attorney General Merrick Garland announced Monday the Department of Justice (DOJ) is suing the state of Texas over its new congressional districts.

Garland announced the lawsuit at a press conference, alleging that Texas officials are violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act by lumping too many black and Latino voters into too few districts to dilute their votes. Associate Attorney General Vanita Gupta said the new redistricting plan will diminish increased minority voting strength caused by recent population shifts.

“Today the Department of Justice has filed suit against the state of Texas for violating Section 2 of the Voting Rights Act,” Garland said. “As the Supreme Court has observed, a core principal of our democracy is that ‘voters should choose their representatives, not the other way around.’” (Read more from “DOJ Announces It’s Suing Critical GOP State Over New Congressional Map” HERE)

Woman Caught Breastfeeding Hairless Cat on Flight Another Example That Society Has Gone Mad

/0 Comments/in , , /by

For those who sense that something is seriously off-kilter in modern America, a bizarre story about the actions of a Delta Airlines passenger will likely confirm their suspicions as yet another example of cultural deterioration is grabbing attention.

On a recent flight from Syracuse to Atlanta, passengers were reportedly shocked when an unidentified woman was observed breastfeeding her hairless cat in the middle of the flight and refused to stop when she was confronted by attendants.

Details were provided on TikTok by flight attendant Ainsley Elizabeth who, according to a Newsweek report, posted a video that “security met the flight because a woman was breastfeeding her cat.”

In a later post that elaborated on her first message, the flight attendant wrote, “This woman had one of those, like, hairless cats swaddled up in a blanket so it looked like a baby.”

“Her shirt was up and she was trying to get the cat to latch and she wouldn’t put the cat back in the carrier. And the cat was screaming for its life,” she added.

Biden Talks About ‘Third Temple’ in Jerusalem

/0 Comments/in , , /by

During the fourth night of Hanukkah and the annual menorah-lighting ceremony, Joe Biden talked about the destruction of the Second Temple, which he compared it to the “temple of our democracy.” . . .

But later in the talk, he expressed optimism the Third Temple would be rebuilt.

“Whether it’s in the Temple of Jerusalem or a temple of our democracy, nothing broken or profaned is beyond repair … nothing,” he said. “We can always build back better. Or, perhaps, build back brighter.”

It was odd. Was he comparing the torching of the Temple and the massacring of the Jews to the Jan. 6 “insurrection” against the Capitol Building? . . .

The speech was not without the president’s signature gaffes, including telling Vice President Kamala Harris’ husband, Doug, was “leading the menorah lady.” (Read more from “Biden Talks About ‘Third Temple’ in Jerusalem” HERE)

State Drafts Rule to Make Mask Wearing Permanent

/0 Comments/in , , /by

There are six states — Hawaii, Illinois, Nevada (in substantial rates of COVID-19 transmission), New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington — that still require most people to wear face masks in indoor public places regardless of vaccination status. Oregon is taking it to another level by considering indefinite mask mandates.

The Oregon Health Authority (OHA) met on Thursday for about two hours to begin the process of drafting an order to make the state’s indoor mask requirement permanent. The OHA’s Rules Advisory Committee (RAC) discussed what the new indefinite face mask mandate would look like and the impact it could have on the public.

“Community stakeholders, including those from the hospitality and faith sectors, joined in the meeting,” KOMO reported. “People from the Seventh Day Adventists Church, the High Desert Museum, the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, and McMenamins were a part of the conversation.”

Some of the private business representatives expressed concerns about people not wanting to comply with mask mandates.

“Getting people to comply is getting harder,” said Paloma Sparks from the Oregon Business & Industry Association. (Read more from “State Drafts Rule to Make Mask Wearing Permanent” HERE)

PLAYING THE VICTIM: Ghislaine Maxwell’s Defense Keeps ‘Spotlight’ on Epstein, Other Powerful Men; Odd: Maxwell Makes Her Own Drawings of the Court Sketch Artists During Trial; Victim Calls Maxwell ‘Engineer of Epstein’s Abuse’

/1 Comment/in , /by

By NBC News. The British socialite Ghislaine Maxwell is the one accused of sex trafficking, but during the first five days of testimony in a New York City courtroom her lawyers have put her deceased boss, Jeffrey Epstein, and his famous friends on trial, legal experts say.

That strategy quickly became evident on the first day of the long-awaited trial when attorney Bobbi Sternheim, in her opening statement, dipped into the book of Genesis to defend Maxwell. . .

In fact, Maxwell’s defense team is subtly trying to portray her as Epstein’s first victim, the experts said. . .

“The defense has signaled its intention to make Epstein central to this trial,” Tuerkheimer said. “By portraying him as charismatic, well-connected, almost larger than life, her team may well be hoping to make Maxwell disappear into the background. Epstein’s star-studded life of fame and riches can grab the jury’s attention and focus, increasing the odds that Maxwell appears as a merely peripheral figure in the story.” (Read more from “PLAYING THE VICTIM: Ghislaine Maxwell’s Defense Keeps ‘Spotlight’ on Epstein, Other Powerful Men” HERE)

Odd: Maxwell Makes Her Own Drawings of the Court Sketch Artists During Trial

By New York Post. Turns out Ghislaine Maxwell really is a sketch artist.

New York-based Illustrator Elizabeth Williams has 40 years of experience drawing people in court but says it was a first when Maxwell, on trial for sex-trafficking, started sketching her.

Williams was at Maxwell’s November pre-trial hearing when she said the British heiress, seated between her two lawyers, looked back at her and began staring while apparently drawing her, the Sun reported Friday. She did it a second time during jury selection.

Fellow illustrator Jane Rosenberg, who’s also at the Maxwell trial and was also drawn by Maxwell, created a picture of the weird encounter that went viral.

“It was like she didn’t think anyone would notice,” Williams said of the initial staring and drawing encounters. “She stared right at us, and it was definitely an odd moment. (Read more from “Odd: Maxwell Makes Her Own Drawings of the Court Sketch Artists During Trial” HERE)

By The Independent UK. The trial of Ghislaine Maxwell, a British socialite and former partner of Jeffrey Epstein, is set to resume today.

One of the sexual abuse survivors, Sarah Ransome — who says she was repeatedly raped by Epstein over a nine-month period — described Ms Maxwell as a “very sick woman” who took pleasure in “humiliating” her victims. . .

Ms Ransome said: “Ghislaine enjoyed humiliating us. You could see the enjoyment in her face.” (Read more from “Victim Calls Maxwell ‘Engineer of Epstein’s Abuse’ as Trial Resumes Today” HERE)

/0 Comments/in , /by

Edward Shames, a World War II veteran who was the last surviving officer of “Easy Company,” which inspired the HBO miniseries and book “Band of Brothers,” has died. He was 99.

An obituary posted by the Holomon-Brown Funeral Home & Crematory said Shames, of Norfolk, Virginia, died peacefully at his home on Friday.

Shames was involved in some of the most important battles of World War II. During the war, he was a member of the renowned Easy Company, 506th Parachute Infantry Regiment, 101st Airborne Division.

“He made his first combat jump into Normandy on D-Day as part of Operation Overlord. He volunteered for Operation Pegasus and then fought with Easy Company in Operation Market Garden and the Battle of the Bulge in Bastogne,” according to the obituary.

Shames was the first member of the 101st to enter Dachau concentration camp, just days after its liberation. (Read more from “Last ‘Band of Brothers’ Officer Dies at 99” HERE)

WATCH: Even More Key Democrats Are Getting Caught up Engaging in Mask Hypocrisy

/0 Comments/in , /by

Last weekend, President Joe Biden was caught with his mask completely slipped down while in Nantucket. And he’s not the only major Democratic figure recently caught engaging in mask hypocrisy.

There’s Mayor London Breed of San Francisco, who late last month was yet again spotted partying at a club, singing and dancing without a mask on. Per a Bay Area regional mandate, everyone must wear a mask inside businesses, including clubs, unless they are actively eating or drinking. . .

Then there’s House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA). As seen in photos obtained by Breitbart, Pelosi appeared to be one of the few at the the California State Society on Tuesday night at the Museum of American History not wearing a mask. This includes a child seen standing close to Pelosi. . .

Then there’s Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY). Nate Madden, communications director for Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), who is on the House Judiciary Committee that Nadler chairs, highlighted Nadler’s rant against members not wearing their masks during a hearing in October, but was just fine to chill out maskless with fellow Democrats on Wednesday.

Ethics Experts Alarmed by Nearly 100% Decrease in Clinton Foundation Donations Since 2009

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Clinton Foundation’s rapid decline in donor cash has alarmed top ethics watchdogs who say it shows clear red flags of political corruption.

Financial disclosures show a precipitous decline in contributions to the Clinton Foundation in the years following former president Bill Clinton and former first lady Hillary Clinton’s fall from the heights of their political power.

The Clinton Foundation received roughly $16.3 million in contributions in 2020, according to their newly released Form 990. This was a 93.6% decrease from the nearly $250 million the charitable organization raked in during 2009 after Hillary Clinton was appointed Secretary of State.

“For years, the Clinton Foundation raised ethical concerns and blurred lines between the foundation, private entities, and the State Department,” said Scott Amey, General Counsel for the Project on Government Oversight (POGO), a nonpartisan, independent government corruption watchdog organization.

“Money was pouring in when Hillary Clinton was a senior official and a candidate for president. The fact that foundation donors received special access to the Secretary of State isn’t surprising, nor is the fall in foundation funding after her 2016 election loss. Many people thought people were supporting the former president, but it really looks like they were cozying up to who they thought was going to be the future president — a situation that can’t be repeated,” the POGO General Counsel told the Daily Caller.

“They did some hearing tests and from all my symptoms, it’s tinnitus. I also got Meniere’s disease which is like a balance thing that comes from that. . .

Sinagra isn’t the first person who has experienced this after getting the vaccine. . .
