Former Republican Vice President Will Vote for Kamala Harris

Republican former Vice President Dick Cheney will vote for Kamala Harris over Donald Trump in the 2024 election, he said in a statement released Friday, shortly after his daughter, former Congresswoman Liz Cheney, revealed his intentions.

“Dick Cheney will be voting for Kamala Harris,” the former Wyoming Republican lawmaker said during an event at the Texas Tribune Festival in Austin.

“If you think about the moment we’re in, and you think about how serious this moment is, my dad believes — and he said publicly — there has never been an individual in our country who is as grave a threat to our democracy as Donald Trump is,” Liz Cheney added.

Dick Cheney, 83, has been an outspoken critic of Trump, and in his statement, he argued that the former president “can never be trusted with power again.”

“In our nation’s 248-year history, there has never been an individual who is a greater threat to our republic than Donald Trump,” read the former vice president’s statement. “He tried to steal the last election using lies and violence to keep himself in power after the voters had rejected him. He can never be trusted with power again.” (Read more from “Former Republican Vice President Will Vote for Kamala Harris” HERE)

This Could Increase Your Risk of Alzheimer’s Disease More Than Anything: Study

. . .Researchers say that exposure to bright outside lights at night could increase your odds of developing Alzheimer’s disease more than other risk factors, especially for young people.

“We show that in the US there is a positive association between [Alzheimer’s] prevalence and exposure to light at night, particularly in those under the age of 65,” said Robin Voigt-Zuwala, an associate professor at Rush University Medical Center in Chicago. “Nightly light pollution — a modifiable environmental factor — may be an important risk factor.”

Voigt-Zuwala’s team studied maps of light pollution — such as streetlights, roadway lighting and illuminated signs — and divided the lower 48 states into five groups, from lowest to highest nighttime light intensity.

Artificial light at night can disrupt the body’s 24-hour biological clock and ruin sleep. Sleep deprivation and insomnia are associated with cognitive decline.

For seniors, Alzheimer’s prevalence had stronger ties to light pollution than risk factors such as alcohol abuse, chronic kidney disease, depression and obesity. (Read more from “This Could Increase Your Risk of Alzheimer’s Disease More Than Anything: Study” HERE)

Revealed: Potential ‘Off Switch’ for COVID Vaccines Could Reverse Threat

In a groundbreaking development that could reshape the conversation about COVID-19 mRNA vaccines, a team of researchers led by renowned cardiologist Dr. Peter McCullough has discovered what may be a critical “off switch” for these controversial treatments. This revelation comes as a beacon of hope for those who have been subjected to the mRNA vaccines and are now grappling with potential severe health issues linked to their use.

The findings, first reported by Slay News, detail a study titled “Strategic Deactivation of mRNA COVID-19 Vaccines: New Applications for RIBOTACs and siRNA Therapy.” This research uncovers a novel method using small interfering messenger RNA (siRNA) and ribonuclease targeting chimeras (RIBOTACs) to deactivate the mRNA introduced by the COVID-19 vaccines. According to the report, this process may offer a way to counteract the dangers posed by the mRNA vaccines, which have been associated with serious conditions such as turbo cancers, heart failure, strokes, blood clots, and compromised immune systems.

The mRNA vaccines, initially marketed as a breakthrough in combating COVID-19, have faced increasing scrutiny due to their alleged adverse effects. The study reveals that the spike protein triggered by the mRNA in these vaccines has been linked to a range of life-threatening diseases and sudden deaths. This has led to growing concerns about the long-term safety of these treatments.

Dr. McCullough’s research, which builds on his previous warnings about the vaccines’ dangers, suggests that the new method could allow individuals to clear out the mRNA from their systems, thereby reducing the associated toxicity. The study points to existing treatments like “Patisiran” and “Inclisiran” as potential tools for this purpose, as they are designed to bind and inactivate messenger RNA.

The urgency of this discovery is heightened by the recent approval of Moderna’s mRNA vaccines for respiratory syncytial virus and influenza. McCullough warns that without a mechanism to turn off the synthetic mRNA, every new mRNA shot could potentially worsen public health, making it crucial to address the risks posed by these vaccines.

Critics of the mRNA vaccines have long questioned their safety and efficacy, citing concerns over their long-term effects and the transparency of their risk profiles.

The potential to mitigate the dangers of mRNA vaccines offers a glimmer of hope to those who have experienced adverse effects, while also amplifying calls for greater scrutiny and transparency in vaccine development and deployment.

Kamala Harris Insults Americans With Her Dishonest Flip-Flops

. . .Vice President Kamala Harris might be a woman without conviction, but she’s trying to get away with selling more than a few contradictions.

On Wednesday, Axios’ Alex Thompson reported on a “lengthy ‘fact-check’ ” forwarded by the Harris team to their allies in the press revising the unpopular policy positions she articulated just a few years ago.

Among the assertions made: Harris “does not support an electric vehicle mandate.”

. . .Back in 2019, Harris co-sponsored a bill that would have required automobile manufacturers to produce only electric and hydrogen-powered vehicles, completely phasing out the gas-powered ones that most Americans depend on by 2040.

During her campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination (remember when you had to run for that?), Harris touted her support for an “accelerated model” under which that transition would be made by 2035. (Read more from “Kamala Harris Insults Americans With Her Dishonest Flip-Flops” HERE)

Gun-Control Groups Claim Making Kids Transgender Will Limit Firearm Violence

Ensuring minors can access procedures like puberty blockers and cross-sex hormones is a “crucial component” in the fight against firearm violence, gun control groups told the Supreme Court Tuesday.

In an amicus brief filed in United States v. Skrmetti, organizations including Giffords, the Brady Center to Prevent Gun Violence, Team Enough and March For Our Lives Action urged the Supreme Court to strike down a Tennessee law banning sex change procedures for minors, claiming such laws contribute to a “climate of hostility that puts transgender individuals directly at risk.” The groups also argued that youth who identify as transgender are at a higher risk of committing suicide using a firearm when they cannot access “gender-affirming care,” a euphemism for life-altering medical interventions.

“In the face of the ongoing gun violence crisis gripping our nation, ensuring access to gender affirming care for transgender youth is not merely a matter of medical necessity—it is a crucial component in our fight against the epidemic of gun violence that disproportionately threatens this vulnerable population,” the groups argued.

The correlation between a “surge in violence” and “discriminatory legislation” cannot be ignored, the groups argued.

“By denying access to gender-affirming medical care, SB1 not only inhibits the ability of transgender youth to present as their authentic selves safely in society, but it also perpetuates the dangerous and baseless perception that transgender individuals who seek medical transition pose a threat to society,” the groups argued. “This dual effect—increasing transgender individuals’ visibility as potential targets while also stoking societal fears— creates a perfect storm of increased violence against an already vulnerable population.” (Read more from “Gun-Control Groups Claim Making Kids Transgender Will Limit Firearm Violence” HERE)

Trump Pledges to Create Elon Musk-Led ‘Government Efficiency Commission’ in Major Economic Address

During a major economic speech on Thursday, former President Donald Trump pledged to create a “government efficiency commission” spearheaded by X owner Elon Musk if elected this November.

This commission will be “tasked with conducting a complete financial and performance audit of the entire federal government and making recommendations for drastic reforms,” the 2024 GOP presidential nominee said during his address to The Economic Club of New York.

The announcement came days after The Washington Post reported that Trump was considering forming such a group, comprised of leading business leaders, to identify and slash wasteful government programs.

Throughout his address, the former president voiced support for lowering the corporate tax rate to 15 percent for companies “that make their product in America,” which is lower than the current 21 percent established by Republicans’ 2017 Tax Cut and Jobs Act. (The previous rate was 35 percent). He also pledged to slash at least 10 federal regulations for every new one created, expanding upon a policy enacted during his first term.

“I took care of our economy like I would take care of my own company in every decision,” Trump said. “I asked, will I create jobs here, or will I be sending jobs overseas? Will it make America richer and stronger, or will it make our country weaker and poorer? … I always put America first every single time.” (Read more from “Trump Pledges to Create Elon Musk-Led ‘Government Efficiency Commission’ in Major Economic Address” HERE)

Former Kennedy Staffers Launch Pro-Trump PAC to ‘Make America Healthy Again’

Anew health-centered political action committee (PAC) launched Wednesday to push supporters for environmental lawyer Robert F. Kennedy to cast ballots in favor of former President Donald Trump.

The PAC, titled Make America Healthy Again (MAHA), is run by a dozen senior staffers who ran Kennedy’s independent presidential campaign. The third-party candidate dropped out to endorse the Republican nominee last month.

“Three great causes drove me to enter this race in the first place,” Kennedy said the day after Democrats concluded their convention in Chicago. “And these are the principle causes that persuaded me to leave the Democratic Party and run as an independent, and now to throw my support to President Trump.”

Kennedy’s endorsement immediately crashed the Democrats’ “sugar high” from the DNC, threatening to spoil Vice President Kamala Harris’s roughly two-point lead. The independent candidate polled around 5 percent throughout August in the aggregate of surveys by RealClearPolitics.

Kennedy ran on a three-pillared platform against censorship, a U.S.-funded forever war in Ukraine, and the runaway epidemic of chronic disease — a platform now at the center of a new campaign to drive independent votes for Trump.

‘Witness Protection’: Media-Friendly Tim Walz Has Disappeared From Airwaves Since Joining Harris Ticket

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz rose to prominence by making the rounds in mainstream media interviews, but since being named Kamala Harris’s running mate, the “folksy”, “midwestern dad” has been missing from the airwaves.

From July 22 to Aug. 6, about two weeks before he was added to the ticket, Walz appeared on MSNBC, PBS, CNN and Fox News a total of ten times, an analysis by Newsbusters’ Curtis Houck, shared with the Daily Caller, showed. Since Harris chose Walz as her running mate on Aug. 6, the governor has not appeared on the networks he flocked to during the vetting process, according to Houck’s analysis.

“It’s no surprise that Tim Walz has gone into the witness protection program first started by the Biden-Harris 2020 campaign after blanketing the liberal cable networks during the vetting process to show Kamala Harris his loyalty to her,” Houck told the Caller.

“Between July 23 and August 6, he appeared on CNN and MSNBC at least seven times, with an additional hit on taxpayer-funded PBS. Morning and evening, Walz made sure Harris and her team saw him at all hours of the day. Importantly, none came after July 30 as the vetting intensified and Harris conducted final round interviews,” he continued.

The shift is a jarring departure from Walz’s pre-nomination media blitz, which skyrocketed him into liberal stardom and separated him from the other contenders in the VP sweepstakes.

Taylor Swift Not Seated Next to Brittany Mahomes After She Showed Support for Trump

During the 2023 season, Travis Kelce’s girlfriend, pop star Taylor Swift, and Brittany Mahomes, wife of Chiefs star Pat Mahomes, were inseparable. One game into the 2024 season, the two seem very separable.

Taylor Swift did not sit with Brittany Mahomes during Thursday night’s season opener. . .

The separation comes after Brittany Mahomes weathered an intense storm of backlash for liking a pair of social media posts supporting former President Trump. While she has not officially endorsed Kamala Harris, her supporters strongly suspect that the pop star will endorse Harris at some point in the next several weeks.

Swift appeared to be sitting with Travis Kelce’s family in their suite. In contrast, Mahomes sat with her daughter in another location.

Mahomes liked a reply from a follower that read, ‘TRUMP-VANCE 2024.” (Read more from “Taylor Swift Not Seated Next to Brittany Mahomes After She Showed Support for Trump” HERE)
