WATCH: Tim Walz Jerk His Son’s Arm on DNC Stage (VIDEO)

/10 Comments/in , , /by

Tim Walz, the leftist Minnesota governor now campaigning as Kamala Harris pick to be No. 2 on the Democrat presidential ticket this year, has revealed some hidden depths already. . .

Now there’s another factor, spotted as he was walking on stage at the Democrat National Convention this week with his family, including son Gus.

He appears to jerk his son’s arm, and in a not too friendly way. . .

The Twitchy site, editorially, said, “Last night as the joyful Democratic National Convention where joyful Kamala Harris and joyful Democrats joyfully babbled on about how much they hate everyone who doesn’t joyfully unify with them came to a joyful end, Americans were privy to something from Tim Walz that didn’t look at all joyful. In fact, it looked angry and even cruel. He clearly didn’t think we’d see it but someone caught this interaction … and it’s honestly a little scary.”

It continued, “Please note, we are in no way attacking or picking on Gus Walz, it’s not his fault his dad grabbed his arm and yanked him into place in that way. We had to watch the video more than once to truly see Walz’s face as he yanked his son around on that stage. … He was angry. He was maybe even enraged.” (Read more from “WATCH: Tim Walz Jerk His Son’s Arm on DNC Stage (VIDEO)” HERE)

Suspect Accused of Threatening the Life of President Trump Arrested by Deputies

/5 Comments/in , /by

Authorities in Cochise County, Arizona, have taken into custody a man suspected of threatening to assassinate President Donald Trump, a circumstance that on Thursday triggered a widespread hunt for Ronald Lee Syrvud, 66.

A report from Daily Wire said the suspect was nabbed by authorities while Trump was visiting the state, which has been impacted by the colossal failure in the Joe Biden-Kamala Harris administration to secure the international border. . .

But the report said Syrvud had an outstanding warrant for felony failure to register as a sex offender and was charged with a sex offender violation on his arrest.

The Daily Mail reported Syrvud has in the past registered as a Democrat and has a long rap sheet, including pleading no contest to second-degree sexual assault of a child in 2000.

‘Burning Through People’: US Navy Considers Drastic Measure Over Manpower Shortage: Report

/3 Comments/in , /by

The U.S. Navy is reportedly considering drastic measures to tackle manpower shortage, sources told USNI News.

The Military Sealift Command (MSC) is reportedly facing operational challenges due to a shortage of qualified civilian mariners. This prompted a strategic plan to sideline 17 Navy support ships, USNI News reported, citing three people familiar with deliberations. This proposal, termed as a “force generation reset,” reportedly aims to alleviate the staffing strain by putting two Lewis and Clark-class replenishment ships, one fleet oiler, twelve Spearhead-class Expeditionary Fast Transports (EPF) and two expeditionary sea bases into extended maintenance while reassigning their crews to other vessels.

The two forward-deployed expeditionary sea bases identified in the plan are the USS Lewis Puller (ESB-3) and USS Herschel “Woody” Williams (ESB-4), two sources told USNI news. These vessels have been pivotal in regional naval operations, including counter-smuggling and special operations, the outlet noted. The reallocation of their crews has reportedly been exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic and subsequent stringent onboard restrictions, USNI News stated.

This move is necessitated by a staffing shortfall that could potentially reduce the MSC’s demand for mariners by as many as 700 billets, the outlet noted. The draft plan is reportedly awaiting approval from Chief of Naval Operations Adm. Lisa Franchetti. It currently operates 4,500 billets with a mariner-to-billet ratio of about 1.27, the outlet stated. This ratio is not operationally sound, two MSC master mariners told the outlet.

Pollsters Say RFK Jr. Endorsement ‘Could Have a Really Big Impact’ and ‘Help Trump’

/5 Comments/in , /by

Republican pollster Lee Carter and Democratic pollster Carly Cooperman on Friday said that independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump could significantly boost his campaign.

Kennedy announced during a Friday speech that he would suspend his campaign and endorse Trump in states where he is not on the ballot, only withdrawing his name from consideration in key battleground states as not to spoil the vote. Carter and Cooperman, on “Your World With Neil Cavuto,” said that in such a close election, the votes that Trump could gain from Kennedy’s decision might boost his chances of defeating Vice President Kamala Harris.

“When you’re looking at these battleground states, we’re looking at averages where Donald Trump might be ahead by 0.2%, and just getting some of those votes could have a really big impact. And I think RFK Jr. knows this,” Carter said. “He was very, very keen to say, ‘I am withdrawing my name from these 10 states because I know it can have an impact.’ And so I think there is a very, very clear directive here.”

“It’s absolutely the case that the polls in these swing states show that with RFK removed, there is a small advantage that goes to Donald Trump. And in these states, every single vote really does matter. This makes a lot of sense,” Cooperman said. “Democrats are far more enthusiastic about Kamala Harris as their presidential candidate than they were about Joe Biden. And so you’re seeing much more coalescing among Democrats for Kamala, and therefore the support that RFK was getting in the most recent polls was certainly going to help Trump more so with him removed from it.”

Cooperman also noted “there is uncertainty” about what Kennedy’s supporters will do in November. (Read more from “Pollsters Say RFK Jr. Endorsement ‘Could Have a Really Big Impact’ and ‘Help Trump'” HERE)

Jack Smith Surrenders: Special Counsel Will Not Seek Expedited Hearings in Donald Trump Case

/3 Comments/in , /by

Special Counsel Jack Smith reversed course in his quest to seek expedited hearings in his Washington, DC, case against former President Donald Trump.

Smith sought the hearings to determine which actions that Trump allegedly took he could charge in his election interference case against the president.

The Supreme Court’s July 1 decision that presidents enjoy partial immunity for actions taken in office in an official capacity spurred Smith to alter his approach.

Before Smith relented in his latest push to expedite the increasingly shaky case, Judge Tanya Chutkan had planned to hold hearings in the fall to determine which of Trump’s acts were official acts subject to prosecution.

That determination will now occur after the election — if it occurs at all. (Read more from “Jack Smith Surrenders: Special Counsel Will Not Seek Expedited Hearings in Donald Trump Case” HERE)

Trump: Why Didn’t ‘Marxist’ Kamala Do Anything for What She Was Complaining About?; Trump Found a Way to Finish His Response to Kamala’s DNC Speech After Being Cut Off on Fox (VIDEO)

/7 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Thursday, following Vice President Kamala Harris’ address to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, her opponent former President Donald Trump appeared on Fox News to respond to the speech.

Trump maintained Harris had her entire vice-presidential term to solve what he called she was “complaining about” during her speech.

“The biggest reaction is why didn’t she do the things she is complaining about?” Trump said. “All of these things that she’s talked about — we’re going to do this, we’re going to do that. We’re going to do everything. But she didn’t do any of it. She could have done it three-and-a-half years ago. She could do it tonight by leaving the auditorium and going to Washington D.C., and closing the border. She doesn’t need a bill. I didn’t have a bill, I closed the border and created the safest border we’ve ever had in the history of our country.” (Read more from “Trump: Why Didn’t ‘Marxist’ Kamala Do Anything for What She Was Complaining About?” HERE)

Trump Found a Way to Finish His Response to Kamala’s DNC Speech After Being Cut Off on Fox

By Townhall. Former President Donald Trump would not sit quietly while Vice President Kamala Harris delivered her acceptance speech to the Democratic National Convention. The coup is complete. Ms. Harris, who never received a single primary vote, is now the 2024 nominee after it was wrested from Joe Biden. For Democrats, Harris’ speech was groundbreaking and an excellent foray into her supposed experience and skills for the presidency. It read like ChatGPT spewed the lines because it was loaded with incoherency and lies for everyone else.

One whopper was this abortion Stasi that Trump would establish if elected after he enacted a nationwide abortion ban. Trump was reacting live on Truth Social but later called into Fox News to push back on Harris’ address. There was one problem: Fox cut off the president. There was no sinister intent, but the programming pushed against Greg Gutfeld’s show. It’s not a major controversy—Trump later called Gutfeld to finish his reaction to the Democrats’ convention:

New Poll Reveals Trump Leading Harris in 2024 Presidential Race

/3 Comments/in , /by

A new Rasmussen Reports national poll has revealed a close contest for the 2024 presidential election, with former President Donald Trump edging out Vice President Kamala Harris. The poll shows Trump leading Harris by three percentage points, with Trump receiving 49% of the vote compared to Harris’s 46%.

The Rasmussen survey, conducted with a sample of 1,893 likely voters between August 15 and August 21, also indicates that Trump maintains his lead when third-party candidates are included. In this scenario, Trump receives 47% of the vote, while Harris trails at 45%. Independent candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. holds 4%, and other third-party candidates account for 1% or less. Kennedy is expected to suspend his campaign and endorse Trump, which could further strengthen Trump’s position.

Rasmussen’s findings stand in contrast to other national polls. The conservative-leaning firm has a track record of close predictions, notably in the 2016 election. Meanwhile, the latest RealClearPolitics aggregate shows Harris with a slight lead over Trump in a broader five-way race, and a narrower edge in a two-way matchup.

Despite Harris’s current lead in broader polls, Trump remains strong in battleground states, projected to win 287 Electoral College votes to Harris’s 251. Trump is anticipated to dominate in key swing states, excluding Wisconsin.

What Fell Off Pelosi’s Pant Leg on the DNC Stage Last Night? (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

A square white object appeared to fall off House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s pant leg as she walked onto the stage at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) Wednesday night.

Pelosi waved to the crowd as she took the DNC stage and prepared to deliver her speech endorsing Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. During the entrance, an unknown white object resembling toilet paper slid off her pant leg, with Pelosi pausing to glance at it.

“Wow, embarrassing and yet completely in context with the BS she was about to unleash,” Bill Mitchell, Host of YourVoice America, told his more than 400,000 followers in an X post regarding the incident.

Except for ABC News, legacy media networks cut out the potentially embarrassing moment, news site Not the Bee reported. (Read more from “What Fell Off Pelosi’s Pant Leg on the DNC Stage Last Night? (VIDEO)” HERE)

Kamala Harris Sure Did Have an ‘Unexpected’ Path to Becoming the Democratic Nominee

/2 Comments/in , /by

On Thursday, Vice President Kamala Harris formally accept the nomination at the DNC. The speech wasn’t remarkable. It was also boring and disorganized, with our friends at RedState highlighting particular moments.

Early on, Harris mentioned President Joe Biden and First Lady Jill Biden. Tellingly, they weren’t present. Biden gave his speech on Monday night, at a shamefully late time, and left.

“When I think about the path that we have traveled together, Joe, I am filled with gratitude,” she claimed. It makes sense, considering he stepped aside so that she could replace him.

Even more telling, Harris declared that “America, the path that led me here in recent weeks was no doubt unexpected, but I’m no stranger to unlikely journeys.”

Harris didn’t earn a single vote in the 2020 or 2024 primaries. She ran for president for 2020 but dropped out in December 2019. She was selected as Biden’s running mate after he promised to pick a black woman. (Read more from “Kamala Harris Sure Did Have an ‘Unexpected’ Path to Becoming the Democratic Nominee” HERE)

Dems Are Panicking Over a Potential RFK Jr. Endorsement of Trump (VIDEO)

/2 Comments/in , /by

The news that third party presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. may endorse former President Donald Trump Friday — when he plans to drop out of the 2024 race for the White House — is not going over well in Democratic circles.

According to Kennedy’s vice presidential running mate Nicole Shanahan, Democrats are panicking over the potential move.

“My old Dem buddies have been flooding me with frantic calls, texts, and emails. Unlike Ro, I wouldn’t dream of airing those private conversations publicly, but the message is clear: they’re terrified of the idea of our movement joining forces with Donald Trump. When I point out what the Democratic Party and their super PACs have done to sabotage our campaign, their response is always, “but Trump is worse.” Here’s an idea: stop suing us. Let us debate. Quit rigging the media and the polls. It’s a simple formula, people—get with it,” Shanahan posted on X Thursday.

During an interview with Fox News, Shanahan explained the reason the campaign is considering an endorsement of Trump. Both have been targets of Democratic lawfare, an ironically undemocratic tactic to keep political rivals off of ballots and out of races.

Trump told Fox and Friends Thursday morning he would be “honored” to have the endorsement.
