Donald Trump Pulls Ahead of Kamala Harris in Major Poll — a Sign Her Campaign is Fizzling; Trump Holds Lead With ‘Remarkably Resilient’ Support

/40 Comments/in , /by

By New York Post. For the first time in weeks, former President Donald Trump pulled ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris in one of the most-watched national polls — raising the prospect that her momentum has fizzled out just ahead of their debate.

Trump edged out Harris 48% to 47% among likely voters nationally, according to a New York Times/Siena College poll.

The poll mirrors the surveys from late July when Trump led Harris among likely voters just after President Biden dropped out of the race. Other polls have similarly begun to show the 45th president regaining ground against his rival weeks after the Democratic National Convention wrapped up.

Trump’s renewed razor-thin lead comes despite the fact that 70% of voters and 37% of those backing him felt that the 45th president had uttered something they found offensive.

Harris had surged in the polls across the board after getting jolted to the top of the ticket and captured the lead over Trump in the RealClearPolitics aggregate of polling. She also gained ground in the battleground state polls, which still remain largely a tossup.

New Poll Shows Trump Holds Lead With ‘Remarkably Resilient’ Support

By Fox News. Former President Donald Trump is maintaining his lead nationally, seemingly shrugging off a burst of enthusiasm for Democrats after Vice President Kamala Harris entered the race.

Trump garnered the support of 48% of likely voters, compared to 47% who indicated support for Harris, according to the latest results of the New York Times/Siena poll released on Sunday.

The results are essentially identical to the last time the New York Times/Siena poll asked voters for their preference in the aftermath of President Biden dropping out of the race in late July, with that poll also showing Trump with a 48-47 lead.

The poll comes after weeks of increased enthusiasm for the Democratic ticket after Harris took over for Biden, though the New York Times argued that it appears Trump’s support is “remarkably resilient” to the stunning changes to the election landscape.

The poll found that Harris has yet to sell voters on her vision for the country, with 28% of respondents indicating that they felt like they needed to know more about her in order for her to earn their support. In contrast, only 9% indicated similar concerns about Trump. (Read more from “New Poll Shows Trump Holds Lead With ‘Remarkably Resilient’ Support” HERE)

Report: Mother of Alleged Apalachee High School Attacker Called, Warned School 30 Minutes Before Attack

/0 Comments/in , /by

A report from the Washington Post, confirmed by the Associated Press, claims the alleged Apalachee High School attacker’s mother warned the school of an “extreme emergency” half an hour before shots rang out.

The Associated Press (AP) reported that the 14-year-old attacker’s aunt, Annie Brown, said the boy’s mom “spoke with a school counselor and urged them to ‘immediately’ find her son to check on him.”

The Tennessee Star noted that the Post zeroed in on text messages that “show that the school and family were in contact about [the mental health of the 14-year-old].”

A week before the shooting, Brown had allegedly informed a relative that the alleged attacker was having “homicidal and suicidal thoughts.”

On September 5, 2024, the day after the Apalachee High School attack, the 14-year-old’s father, Colin Gray, was arrested and charged with involuntary manslaughter and second-degree murder, among other things.

Russell Brand Kneels in Prayer at Tucker Carlson Event, Prays Against ‘Dark and Demonic Forces’

/2 Comments/in , /by

A barefoot Russell Brand knelt on the floor at the conclusion of an hour-long conversation with former Fox News host Tucker Carlson in Phoenix, Arizona, on Wednesday, and prayed against the “dark and demonic forces” in government and corporate America.

The British actor also asked that the upcoming 2024 presidential election would provide an opportunity for “unity” in the United States.

Kicking off the first of Carlson’s multi-stop live national tour this month that will feature various guests ranging from Donald Trump Jr. to Roseanne Barr, Carlson spoke at length to Brand about the comedian’s newfound Christian faith and how it has affected his worldview. . .

“We haven’t talked about this — and I mean this in the most open possible way, not everyone’s going to share your beliefs or my beliefs — but would you close in prayer?” Carlson asked.

“I call on the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, our heavenly Savior,” Brand prayed after hopping from his chair to kneel on the stage. “Lord, I humbly [ask] in this great congregation in Phoenix, Arizona, with my host, Tucker Carlson, in deference to him, but in ultimate deference to you, our Lord and Savior, to whom we are all your younger siblings and your children.”

Elon Musk Claims He Just Activated the World’s Most Powerful AI Supercomputer

/2 Comments/in , /by

Behold Colossus: Elon Musk’s new supercomputer, allegedly powered by a staggering 100,000 Nvidia AI chips, which would be more than any single AI system on the planet.

Built in Tennessee for his artificial intelligence startup xAI, Musk announced Monday that the formidable data center was finally brought online over the Labor Day weekend, after spending just 122 days assembling it — a record, according to Nvidia.

“Colossus is the most powerful AI training system in the world,” Musk said in a tweet.

The supercomputer is built with Nvidia H100 graphics processing units, which are the industry’s most coveted pieces of hardware for training and running generative AI systems, such as AI chatbots and image generators.

And xAI’s current tally of them is just the beginning. Musk claimed that, in a few months, Colossus will “double” in size to 200,000 AI chips, which will include 50,000 H200 GPUs, a newer version that Nvidia says will have nearly twice the memory capacity as its predecessor, and 40 percent more bandwidth.

Conservative YouTube Accounts Terminated Over Fear of Russian Influence

/4 Comments/in , /by

YouTube terminated the accounts of a conservative influencer and her media company Thursday evening, one day after the Justice Department indicated the company was tied to a Russian scheme to influence the 2024 election.

The accounts for Tenet Media and Lauren Chen were removed one day after Attorney General Merrick Garland held a press conference announcing an indictment of two Russians in an alleged scheme to influence the 2024 election. A note on Tenet Media’s channel states that it “violated our Community Guidelines” and Chen’s personal account on the Google-owned video site was listed as “not available” Friday morning.

The Justice Department claimed that individuals tied to Russian media outlet RT provided $10 million to promote accounts at a U.S.-based media outlet that had only 16 million views across 2,000 videos. The Justice Department did not name Tenet, but multiple news outlets have confirmed it was the company named in the indictment.

Tenet Media’s talent includes podcasters Tim Pool, Benny Johnson, Dave Rubin, and Lauren Southern, according to its website. The personal YouTube pages for Rubin, Johnson, Pool, and Southern were still available Friday.

The DOJ’s assertions in the indictment have been viewed skeptically by some conservatives, who noted the claims that Russia colluded with former President Donald Trump during his successful 2016 campaign for the White House. The Steele Dossier, which was used to further allegations of collusion, was later discredited.

Russian Spies ‘Buried Nuclear Bombs Near UK Military Bases’ in Case of WWIII

/2 Comments/in , /by

Cold War Russian spies buried nuclear bombs, nerve-agent capsules and assault weapons close to UK military sites during the 1980s in case of World War Three, a special forces veteran has revealed.

Undercover Kremlin operatives even made a four-man underground bunker packed with bedding, weapons and supplies in the UK to prepare for the feared global conflict, he added. He reports that more than a dozen caches were made – the biggest in Suffolk, close to RAFs Mildenhall and Lakenheath, home of American Air Force bombers and fighter jets.

The revelations come in an exclusive Mirror interview with British special forces veteran and author Duncan Falconer as he launches his latest sensational book ‘First Into Action Again’. In the book, he describes his thrilling post-special forces military life as an elite freelance security expert working on deniable operations and protecting lives in dangerous war zones.

Father of two Duncan, 68, was at 19 the youngest Special Boat Service (SBS) recruit when he was plucked from the Royal Marines to serve in the elite Royal Navy unit during the 1970s. He told us that, in the event of another world war, Moscow planned to deploy its elite “Spetsnaz” commandos off British shores by submarine or boat, to link up with the secret caches and launch attacks. They planned to use commando raids to cripple UK and US air force installations, to disrupt the West’s ability to strike against Russia. . .

Duncan is limited on what he can say about that operation but he added that, in another incident, British intelligence made a horrific discovery. He says: “An underground cache was found inside a wood near Thetford, in Suffolk, near RAF Mildenhall. Someone had buried a huge tank and kitted it out for a four-man team to live in there. There was food and sleeping accommodation, but there was also an array of weapons, including the miniature 30kg and 90kg nuclear suitcase bombs. Apparently in the Cold War there were more than 100 on America’s east coast and the idea was if we finally went to war with Russia, they would send Spetsnaz teams to use them against their relevant targets.” (Read more from “Russian Spies ‘Buried Nuclear Bombs Near UK Military Bases’ in Case of WWIII” HERE)

Brazil’s Supreme Court Votes Unanimously to Uphold X Ban

/4 Comments/in , /by

Tech mogul Elon Musk accused one of Brazil’s Supreme Court justices of carrying out “censorship orders” by blocking his social media platform.

Brazil’s Supreme Court voted unanimously on Monday to uphold the decision by one of its justices to ban Elon Musk’s social media platform, X.

Previously called Twitter, the ban on X began on Saturday after Musk refused to name a legal representative in Brazil in August, saying that the order by Supreme Court Justice Alexandre de Moraes was trying to enforce censorship.

But Chief Justice Luis Roberto Barroso said in an interview with the Brazilian newspaper Folha de S.Paulo over the weekend that “a company that refuses to name a legal representative in Brazil cannot operate in Brazilian territory”.

The collective support of the other Supreme Court justices is seen as undermining the efforts of Musk and his supporters to portray de Moraes as a renegade. (Read more from “Brazil’s Supreme Court Votes Unanimously to Uphold X Ban as Users Switch to Threads and Bluesky” HERE)

/5 Comments/in , /by

Tucker Carlson has been blasted for saying women serving in the military is “disgusting” and like “walking by a pile of feces.” . . .

Carlson . . . was speaking on The Charlie Kirk Show about a discussion he had with an army general over a woman “having her legs blown off.”

He said: “And I remember thinking, wait a second. Are we allowed to send, first of all, what’s a woman doing getting her legs blown off?

“And so for sending women to go fight our wars, that, first of all, that’s not, you know, that’s not a liberation movement.

“That’s a kind of…I just remember thinking, that’s disgusting. It’s like walking by a pile of human feces on the sidewalk.”

He continued: “You can explain it away and where it’s from? There are no restrooms here. It’s like, no. They’re on the sidewalk. Like, I’m against that. It’s just disgusting, and I don’t need to explain it.” (Read more from “Tucker Carlson Says Women in Military is ‘Disgusting and Like Walking by a Pile of Feces'” HERE)

‘White Fragility’ Author Robin Diangelo Gets Tricked Into Paying Reparations to Matt Walsh’s Producer in ‘Am I Racist?’ Documentary

/2 Comments/in , /by

“White Fragility” author Robin DiAngelo was hoodwinked into dipping into her own pocketbook to pay reparations to a black producer in podcaster Matt Walsh’s upcoming documentary “Am I Racist?”

An undercover, man-bun-wearing Walsh, 38, goaded DiAngelo into ponying up cash to his producer named Ben to compensate for the sins of the past by first coughing up the money himself.

Walsh, who had been conducting an interview with DiAngelo for a documentary project while feigning anti-racist sentiments and posing as an activist, summoned Ben after finishing up most of his questions.

“This is Ben, a producer on the film. I thought it would be a powerful opportunity to speak directly to a person of color and confront our racism and also, apologize for the white supremacist systems that oppress Ben,” Walsh began.

DiAngelo, 68, followed suit saying, “On behalf of myself and my fellow white people, I apologize — it is not you, it is us. As long as I’m standing, I will do my best to challenge it.” (Read more from “‘White Fragility’ Author Robin Diangelo Gets Tricked Into Paying Reparations to Matt Walsh’s Producer in ‘Am I Racist?’ Documentary” HERE)

Alan Dershowitz Leaves Democratic Party, Cites DNC: ‘I Was Disgusted’

/67 Comments/in , , /by

Prominent attorney Alan Dershowitz announced his departure from the Democratic Party, citing several “anti-Jewish” lawmakers that make up the ranks of the party and the recent Democratic National Convention in which Vice President Kamala Harris became the party’s presidential nominee.

Speaking with radio host Zev Brenner on “Talkline with Zev Brenner,” Dershowitz cited the DNC, which he said gave legitimacy to anti-Israel speakers, and anti-Israel protesters outside the gathering.

“It was the most anti-Jewish, anti-Israel, anti-Zionist convention I’ve experienced,” he said. “I was disgusted at the Democratic National Convention. Absolutely disgusted.”

“I am no longer a Democrat. I am an Independent,” he added, noting that he wouldn’t reveal whom he was voting for president until possibly after Nov. 1. “I want to see how they deal with Iran. I want to encourage the current administration to support Israel.”

The Harvard Law professor emeritus said his departure from the party was a long time coming and that he gradually resigned over time. (Read more from “Alan Dershowitz Leaves Democratic Party, Cites DNC: ‘I Was Disgusted'” HERE)
