/5 Comments/in , /by

President Biden on Friday joked that Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm is his “boss” and referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as the “president” while he delivered an update on hurricane recovery efforts from the White House.

Seated in the Roosevelt Room with members of his Cabinet, including the secretary and the vice president, who joined by teleconference, Biden said the priorities for his administration are power restoration and debris removal.

“Our heart goes out to all those folks who’ve lost not only personal property, but their homes and some lost lives and grieving after the aftermath of the tornadoes, brutal wind, record downpours and historic flooding,” Biden said.

The president informed reporters that he has spoken with dozens of officials from North Carolina, Florida and other states impacted by Hurricanes Helene and Milton in the last two weeks. According to Biden, experts have estimated that Milton caused $50 billion in damage alone. . .

North Carolina authorities on Friday confirmed at least 92 storm-related fatalities from Hurricane Helene, but were unable to provide the number of those who remain missing or unaccounted for. Florida officials confirmed at least eight people are dead after Hurricane Milton spawned at least four tornadoes which wreaked havoc in St. Lucie County, The Associated Press reported.

Transvestite Pastor Declares the Bible ‘Wasn’t Written for 2024′

/2 Comments/in , /by

Drew Stever, a female minister in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America who identifies as a man, recently generated controversy by suggesting that gender ideology’s incompatibility with biblical teaching, particularly about sex, demonstrates a deficit in the Bible.

Lisa Ling of “CBS Mornings” told Stever in a recent interview that “there is a lot of people who say that according to the Bible, God made man and woman, and that couldn’t be any more clearly defined.”

The program cited the finding from a 2017 Pew Research poll that 63% of American Christians say that gender is determined by sex at birth; 35% of Christian respondents alternatively said that gender can be different from sex at birth.

More recent Pew data that CBS News apparently chose to ignore indicates that the percentage of American Christians who affirm the unity of gender and biological sex has significantly increased in the years since.

Whereas 68% of Protestants and 51% of Catholics polled in 2017 said that an individual’s gender is the same as birth sex, those numbers jumped in 2022 to 75% and 62%, respectively. (Read more from “Transvestite Pastor Declares the Bible ‘Wasn’t Written for 2024′” HERE)

Justice Dept. Sues State for Allegedly Purging Noncitizens From Voter Rolls Too Close to Election

/4 Comments/in , /by

The U.S. Department of Justice is suing Virginia, alleging that the commonwealth removed noncitizens from its voter rolls too close to Election Day.

The complaint alleges that the state Board of Elections and Virginia Commissioner of Elections Susan Beals violated the federal National Voter Registration Act (NVRA), which mandates that states must complete their maintenance program no later than 90 days before an election under a clause known as the Quiet Period Provision.

The agency alleges that Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin violated the NVRA when announcing and subsequently carrying out an executive order which required the election commissioner to regularly update the state’s voter lists to remove individuals who have been “identified as noncitizens,” and had not responded to a request to verify their citizenship in 14 days.

Under Youngkin’s executive order, Virginia has removed 6,303 individuals.

“The Executive Order formalized the Program and announced that 6,303 individuals had been removed from the rolls pursuant to the same process between January 2022 and July 2024,” the complaint said.

Kamala’s Husband Doug Emhoff Does Not Deny Allegations of Slapping Ex-Girlfriend

/5 Comments/in , /by

In a soon-to-be-released interview with MSNBC, Doug Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, has not denied allegations made against him regarding a past incident in which he allegedly slapped his ex-girlfriend. The snippet of the interview, set to air on Monday on “Morning Joe,” has raised eyebrows, particularly given the serious nature of the claims.

The allegations, first reported by The Daily Mail, stem from a night out during the 2012 Cannes Film Festival, where three friends of the alleged victim, referred to under the pseudonym “Jane,” claim Emhoff struck her. The friends have reportedly provided photographs and other documentation to support their account of the incident.

While Emhoff did not respond directly to requests for comment from The Daily Mail, a spokesman for him stated to Semafor that the report was “untrue” and insisted that any suggestion that he has ever hit a woman is false. However, during the MSNBC interview, Emhoff did not specifically refute the allegations but instead described discussions about his personal life as a “distraction.”

“We don’t have time to be pissed off. We don’t have time to focus on it; it’s all a distraction. It’s designed to try to get us off our game,” he stated when pressed about the implications of the tabloid claims. His comments come amidst a backdrop of intense scrutiny over the personal lives of political figures, particularly in the context of a heated election season.

During the same interview, Emhoff was also questioned about former President Donald Trump’s decision to skip a second debate with Harris. He criticized Trump for spreading a “fog of misinformation and disinformation and gaslighting,” a sentiment echoed by co-host Joe Scarborough, who characterized the tabloid allegations about Emhoff as part of this “misinformation.”

Hackers Turn Robot Vacs Across the US Into Obscenity-Yelling Machines

/4 Comments/in , /by

Cybersecurity is not something to take lightly, and a new report about a smart home product perfectly highlights that point. Over the course of several days, multiple robot vacuums were hacked in cities across the US.

ABC News in Australia reports that hackers were able to take full control over robot vacs in multiple cities around the country. The hack allowed the attackers to yell racial slurs at owners, remotely control the device to chase after pets, and see through the vacuum’s camera. All of the affected robot vacuums were of the same make and model, the Chinese-made ECOVACS Deebot X2.

One report comes from a Minnesota lawyer named Daniel Swenson. In Swenson’s case, he was watching TV when he noticed his vacuum making weird noises, like a “broken-up radio signal or something.” Swenson told the outlet that he reset his password and rebooted the robot after seeing a stranger was accessing the live camera feed and remote control feature. After sitting down on the couch with his wife and 13-year-old son, the robot immediately started moving again and Swenson’s family could hear racist obscenities being spewed as clear as day.

“I got the impression it was a kid, maybe a teenager,” Swenson said. “Maybe they were just jumping from device to device messing with families.” The lawyer has since turned off the device and taken it to his garage where it remains powered down. Despite the creepiness of it all, Swenson says it could’ve been worse, the hacker could have quietly observed his family with no one the wiser. Swenson says he kept the robot on the same floor as the family’s master bathroom, adding that, “Our youngest kids take showers in there.” (Read more from “Hackers Turn Robot Vacs Across the US Into Obscenity-Yelling Machines” HERE)

Kamala Has Never Been More Awkward Than During Her Univision Town Hall Interview

/6 Comments/in , /by

After watching Vice President Kamala Harris’s incredible slog of a town hall-style interview Thursday on Univision, there’s absolutely no way her support among Latino U.S. voters is going to do anything but bottom out.

That was the most excruciating hour-long campaign session I can recall and it’s not even close. The peak of the event was when she hollered at a non-English speaker who asked an innocuous question about the Democrat primary process, which Kamala skipped over before being hoisted up as the party nominee.

That guy was named Mario and he identified himself as a 70-year-old from Uruguay. He said President Biden as the original nominee seemed to have been pushed aside and because of that, he was now inclined to vote for Donald Trump. He asked Kamala to clarify the process under which she was anointed the party’s standard-bearer.

After a quick glossing over of how she was able to get delegates to rally behind her — admittedly, that’s how national party politics works in its rawest form— she ventured off into a weird and angry screed about Trump being a dictator (never heard that one).

She told her elderly and confused questioner to “look up” the ever-so-fearsome Project 2025, and she did it with all the warmth of an annoyed waiter telling a customer to scan the QR code to pay his bill. She then screamed about a rumor that Trump was sending Covid tests to Russia because she really thinks Vladimir Putin is atop of the mind of a 70-year-old migrant to America. The guy just stared at her. (Read more from “Kamala Has Never Been More Awkward Than During Her Univision Town Hall Interview” HERE)

DISGRACE: Kamala Harris Posed for Vogue Cover While Hurricane Death Toll Rises

/3 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris posed for her second Vogue cover on October 7, 2024, while search and rescue operations continued for survivors of Hurricane Helene. The cover was released on Friday, mere days after the photoshoot took place, infuriating Americans due to the vice president’s carelessness.

The aftermath of the hurricane has been catastrophic, with search efforts ongoing for hundreds of missing individuals. A Google spreadsheet initiated by a dedicated volunteer currently lists over 400 people as unaccounted for. The death toll has reached at least 230 across five states, with numbers rising daily as recovery efforts proceed.

In North Carolina alone, the situation has become increasingly dire. As reported by the News & Observer, the state’s death toll climbed to 115 on Friday, up from 92 just one day prior. The devastation has not only claimed lives but has also left almost 70,000 homes and businesses in North Carolina and Georgia without power, complicating rescue and recovery efforts.

Putin Reaffirms Russia’s Commitment to Iran Against Israel

/5 Comments/in , /by

Russian President Vladimir Putin told his Iranian counterpart, Masoud Pezeshkian, on Friday that Moscow continues to place a high priority on cooperation with Tehran and wishes to create a “new world order” in which the West and Israel no longer have a dominant position in global affairs.

Putin and Pezeshkian met on the sidelines of a forum in Ashgabat, the capital of Turkmenistan. Pezeshkian said he hoped he and Putin could sign a comprehensive strategic partnership agreement during their next meeting at the BRICS summit in Kazan, Russia later in October. BRICS is an economic bloc cofounded by Russia, which Iran joined at the beginning of 2024.

“Moscow and Tehran actively cooperate with each other in the international arena and often agree on their assessments of world events,” Putin said at the Turkmenistan summit on Friday.

“This year, we are witnessing an increase in the volume of trade between the two countries and its good trend,” he said.

“From the economic and cultural point of view, our relations are getting stronger day by day,” Pezeshkian responded. (Read more from “Putin Reaffirms Russia’s Commitment to Iran Against Israel” HERE)

Herschel Walker to Barack Obama: ‘Telling Us to Vote Based on Color Is a Step Backward’

/4 Comments/in , /by

Former Georgia candidate for U.S. Senate Herschel Walker blasted Barack Obama for sending black people backward in equality by demanding they vote based on skin color.

Walker’s slam against Obama came after the former president warned that not enough black people — especially black men — are supporting Harris, according to the current polls.

“Barack Obama, you forgot how hard we fought for our right to vote! Telling us how to vote based on color is a step backward. The bad policies of Biden/Harris have hurt us all. We need unity brother, not division!” Walker wrote, adding #Togetherwestand.

Obama’s comments followed a September 30 Pew Research poll that found only 84 percent of black people said they were planning to vote for Kamala Harris for president, while 13 percent said they were backing Trump. By contrast, Joe Biden won 92 percent of the black vote in 2020.

Harris’s declining support among black people has a lot of Democrat insiders worried, and Obama voiced that worry when he visited the important swing state of Pennsylvania this week. (Read more from “Herschel Walker to Barack Obama: ‘Telling Us to Vote Based on Color Is a Step Backward’” HERE)

Pro-Kamala Harris Spot Targeting ‘Real Men’ Ripped as ‘Cringiest Political Ad Ever’ (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , /by

. . .A 90-second video of “typical” men expressing their support for Kamala Harris was widely mocked online Friday — with critics trashing the awkward spot as the “cringiest political ad ever” and an “absurd piece of rubbish.”

The clip features a slew of apparent farmers, car enthusiasts and gym junkies boasting about their masculinity as they repeatedly insist, “I’m a man” and “I’m man enough.”

The script then takes a hard feminist turn as the presumed actors — most of whom were filmed doing outdoor activities or perched on trucks — start rattling off ways they aren’t afraid to support women.

“You think I’m afraid to rebuild a carburetor? I eat carburetors for breakfast,” one man oddly says before another chimes in: “I’ll tell you another thing I’m sure as s–t not afraid of … women.”

“If they wanna control their bodies, I say go for it,” the men crow in the video. “If they want to start a family, I’m not afraid of families … If they want to be childless cat ladies … have all the cats you want.”
