ABC Should Be Prosecuted for Illegal Contributions to Harris in ‘Debate’

Former President Donald Trump showed up for a traditional political debate Tuesday night, but he instead found himself in the middle of a 90-minute ambush to boost Kamala Harris.

Working as a team, ABC hosts David Muir and Linsey Davis propped up Harris and repeatedly tried to vanquish Trump by talking over him, cutting him off, and asking bizarre questions they did not ask Harris. At one point, Davis jumped in for Harris and offered a rebuttal to one of Trump’s comments on abortion, a move beyond the scope of a moderator.

They allowed Harris more time to respond and followed her when she veered off topic, but gave Trump no such breaks. It was not a debate, but a campaign contribution. That’s not a big surprise from either moderator, as Muir hosts the most Trump-negative network news evening broadcast and Davis has a long track record of promoting Democrat talking points including stolen election claims from Hillary Clinton.

The moderators wasted time rehashing the Jan. 6, 2021 riot at the Capitol and pressed Trump on whether he really believes he won the 2020 election, at times putting words in his mouth. They barely touched on the economy, a top voter issue, and not once did the moderators acknowledge the attempted assassination of Trump. Nor did they question Harris about the lax security the Biden-Harris administration provided for Trump on the campaign trail that contributed to the shooting.

In broadcasting, where advertising is sold by the second, time really is money. A 30-second commercial in the February Super Bowl cost $7 million. (Read more from “ABC Should Be Prosecuted for Illegal Contributions to Harris in ‘Debate’” HERE)

Kamala Harris’ Debate Earrings Trigger Theories Among Trump Supporters

By the New York Post. Some conspiracy-minded supporters of former President Donald Trump have claimed that Vice President Kamala Harris got secret — and unfair — help in her Tuesday night debate against the Republican nominee.

The theory goes like this: Harris’ earrings contained a clandestine Bluetooth device that enabled her to be coached by unseen aides during the ABC News forum in Philadelphia, in flagrant violation of the rules set out by the Disney-owned network.

One X user dubbed The Maverick Approach, a self-described “alternative news source,” peddled a claim early Wednesday that Harris had been fitted with a pair of smart earrings developed by NOVA, a German company.

“There’s a major issue with this debate,” they posted. “I told myself she was fed what to say during the debate and my hunch was right. Nova is the world’s first and only wireless earphone earrings.” . . .

The clip-on NOVA H1 Audio Earrings sell for about $625 apiece and are able to “project sound from inside the pearl straight into your ear canal,” according to its Kickstarter page, which appears to have been dormant since last year and includes comments suggesting people hadn’t received the product despite chipping in cash.

Company says Kamala Harris’ debate earrings strikingly similar to its Bluetooth device, offers to make ones for Trump

By Emily Crane. A [German] tech company has added fuel to the Kamala Harris earrings conspiracy theory after quipping that her debate night jewelry is strikingly similar to the Bluetooth devices it makes — and has even offered to design “orange” ones for Donald Trump. . .

“We do not know whether Mrs. Harris wore one of our products. The resemblance is striking and while our product was not specifically developed for the use at presidential debates, it is nonetheless suited for it,” Icebach’s managing director, Malte Iversen, said in a tongue-in-cheek statement to tech outlet Tom’s Guide.

“To ensure a level playing field for both candidates, we are currently developing a male version and will soon be able to offer it to the Trump campaign. The choice of color is a bit challenging though as orange does not go well with a lot of colors.”

Meanwhile, the company has also vowed to clear up the “rumors and myths surrounding our wonderful products” during a forthcoming appearance on “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon. . . . After thorough discussions we have decided that we will grant one live interview . . . our chosen interviewer is Jimmy Fallon, a trusted Bavarian in heart.” (Read more about Harris’s debate earrings HERE)

Whoops: White House’s John Kirby Trashes Veterans on 9/11 in Email Accidentally Sent to Fox News

White House national security spokesman John Kirby trashed a group of veterans in an email sent in error to Fox News on the anniversary of the September 11, 2001 terror attacks.

As Fox News reported on Wednesday, Kirby responded to an email query from Fox about criticisms by a veterans’ group about the Biden administration’s disastrous 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan by accidentally hitting “reply all” before disparaging the veterans.

Fox reported:

“Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe,” Kirby said in a “reply all” email chain Wednesday afternoon that appeared to be intended for White House staffers, but which also included Fox News Digital.

Fox News Digital had reached out to the White House earlier Wednesday afternoon regarding critical comments from four veterans, including Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., who blasted Kirby for his Monday press conference that they said provided “cover” for the Biden administration’s 2021 withdrawal.

…

Kirby’s message was sent in error, with him following up with a Fox News Digital reporter, “Clearly, I didn’t realize you were on the chain.” Kirby sent the email while traveling with President Biden on the anniversary of 9/11.

It Only Took 20 Seconds for Black Immigrant Caller to Unravel Charlamagne’s Defense of Harris’ Role in Border Crisis

A black immigrant caller on Wednesday quickly dismantled radio host Charlamagne Tha God’s defense of Vice President Kamala Harris’ handling of the border crisis.

Harris is campaigning on solving the border crisis, but since the beginning of her administration with President Joe Biden, over 7 million migrants have attempted to cross the U.S. southern border, according to data from Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The caller, Al from Queens, New York, argued on “The Breakfast Club” that Harris bears significant responsibility for the surge, while Charlamagne contended that the crisis is driven by factors beyond the vice president’s policies.

“Let me start off by saying I love you guys, man. I listen to you guys every morning. And I’m also a black man, I’m also an immigrant. But there are certain things that you guys are saying that Kamala wasn’t supporting or she wasn’t answering these questions, man,” Al said. “I watched the same debate. When they spoke about immigrants, she’s half the reason that all these immigrants are in the state of New York or any state for that.”

“Listen, I don’t know why we put the blame on one person as if the border hasn’t been an issue for years under every administration. That’s why they were able to create a bipartisan bill that [former president] Donald Trump didn’t want to push through, because he knew it would give the Democrats a win,” Charlamagne responded. “So I don’t understand why we act like one person caused the border to be a problem.” (Read more from “It Only Took 20 Seconds for Black Immigrant Caller to Unravel Charlamagne’s Defense of Harris’ Role in Border Crisis” HERE)

Voters Were Asked Who They Are Voting for Post-Debate, Here’s What They Said

Although Democrats quickly declared Vice President Kamala Harris last night’s presidential debate winner, voters didn’t necessarily agree.

According to a Reuter’s focus group, which was supported by The New York Times, six in ten undecided voters suggested that former President Donald Trump won Tuesday night’s debate, citing the biased ABC News moderators who repeatedly fact-checked and argued with the 45th president.

Before the debate, the Harris campaign said the evening would allow voters to learn about the VP, her positions, and her policies. However, because of Harris’ “vague” answers, voters said they “trust” Trump more.

The outlet polled ten people, all of whom previously voted for Democrat and Republican candidates, before the debate. They said they were unsure of who they would vote for in November. However, following the 90-minute event, more than half of the respondents indicated they would now either vote for Trump or were at least leaning toward voting for him.

Five of those people said Harris left them more unsure about her positions and how she would improve the economy— a top concern for voters. Four of the respondents polled said Harris did nothing to convince them she would do anything differently from President Joe Biden, who has been blamed for the U.S.’ failing economic health.

China Hawks Slam Biden-Harris Admin for Ignoring Growing Evidence Beijing Is Running Spy Ops Out of Diplomatic Posts

The Biden State Department has seemingly ignored mounting evidence of China running influence and intel operations from its diplomatic posts. And national security experts and China hardliners say Americans shouldn’t expect the administration to take action anytime soon.

Linda Sun, a former high-level official under Gov. Kathy Hochul, was arrested on Sep. 3 on allegations of acting on behalf of China’s government at the direction of the New York Chinese consulate, adding to a growing list of allegations of Chinese influence activities. The State Department has several tools to deter Beijing and Chinese consulates from such activities but has not taken any visible measures to do so, experts told the Daily Caller News Foundation.

“There is a range of things the State Department could be doing… The least they could do is to reiterate the warnings of the previous [Trump administration], and where they see need of it, improve upon the warnings of the previous administration,” Steve Yates, a senior fellow at the America First Policy Institute (AFPI) and former national security official, told the DCNF. “That hasn’t happened, and I don’t expect it to happen now.”

Yates pointed to an example where the Trump administration shut down a Chinese consulate in Texas in 2020 over concerns that it was a hub for espionage and influence activities. The Biden administration has not closed any of the four remaining Chinese consulates located across the U.S.

Kamala Harris’s Debate Drama: A Hollywood Production?

During Tuesday’s presidential debate, Kamala Harris’s theatrical performance left many viewers scratching their heads and laughing in disbelief. The Democratic nominee’s over-the-top facial expressions seemed to be part of a carefully orchestrated display intended to capture the spotlight from former President Donald Trump.

According to former Democratic Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, Harris’s dramatic debate antics were no accident. In a recent Fox News interview, Gabbard revealed that Harris had been receiving acting lessons and was coached by Hollywood insiders in preparation for the debate. “She’s locked herself in a hotel room, taking extreme acting lessons,” Gabbard said. “She’s got Hollywood advisers, stages, the Hollywood lights in the hopes that her friends in ABC and propaganda media declare her the winner.”

Gabbard, who has recently endorsed Trump and is serving as an advisor to his campaign, expressed skepticism about Harris’s approach. She believes that Harris’s theatrical performance might be an attempt to manipulate voters rather than offer substantive policy proposals. “But I don’t think American people are going to fall for this,” Gabbard added.

The debate’s social media reaction to Harris’s antics was mixed. Her exaggerated facial expressions, especially when Trump was speaking, were widely ridiculed online. This spectacle has only fueled suspicions that Harris’s performance was part of a larger strategy to sway public opinion through media manipulation rather than genuine political debate.

The connection between Harris and Hollywood elites, who have fervently supported her campaign, has also drawn scrutiny. Disney executive Dana Walden, a key figure overseeing ABC News, has been a significant supporter of Harris. Walden’s donations to Harris’s political campaigns and her close personal ties to the Harris family—she is friends with Kamala Harris and her husband, entertainment lawyer Doug Emhoff—raise questions about potential conflicts of interest.

Harris once credited Dana Walden and her husband, Matt, for her successful marriage during a 2022 fundraiser, underscoring the deep connections between the Harris campaign and Hollywood’s power brokers. This cozy relationship between Harris and Hollywood insiders only adds fuel to the fire of concerns about media bias and influence.

Joe Biden Grins as He Dons Red Trump Hat

Outgoing President Joe Biden donned a red Trump campaign hat while grinning in Pennsylvania on Wednesday, one day after the presidential debate when former President Donald Trump said Biden “hates” Vice President Kamala Harris.

“He [Biden] hates her [Kamala]!” Trump said during the debate. “He can’t stand her.”

“But he had 14 million votes,” Trump added. “They threw them out. She got zero votes.”

The White House claimed Biden wore the hat to show “bipartisan unity.”

Eric Trump said Biden wore the hat after first responders in Shanksville, Pennsylvania, demanded he wear the hat:

We All Saw Clearly on Sept. 11, 2001 a Battle Between Good and Evil That Still Rages

For those who remember the crisp fall morning of Sept. 11, 2001, how by 10:03 a.m. the day turned to Hell, and how we watched the brutal, televised murders of 2,977 people, the atrocities are seared into our memories. . .

Once again, we are in a battle too many Americans do not know we are involved in. Our culture has changed as Americans turn away from God.

We are in the midst of a loneliness epidemic according to a report released last year by the surgeon general. It said that in 1999, 70 percent of Americans said they belonged to a church. In 2020, only 47 percent of Americans said they belonged to a church, synagogue, or mosque.

The victims of Sept. 11, 2001, would not recognize America today. They died before Facebook was invented; before everyone had a smartphone in his pocket; before legalized same-sex marriages; and before attempts to normalize children taking life-altering hormones in fruitless attempts to change their unchangeable gender.

They missed Covid; the summer of riots; the rise of lawless homeless encampments; and the Department of Justice prosecuting and imprisoning people for the constitutionally protected activities of assembling and speaking their mind.

After 23 Years, We Still Need to Remember the Lessons of 9/11

It’s been 23 years since America watched in horror as the Twin Towers fell on live TV.

Nineteen al Qaeda terrorists, hailing from Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, Egypt and Lebanon, hijacked four planes and killed 2,977 of us, shaking the nation to its core. . .

Heroes stood up: Todd Beamer and his seatmates on Flight 93; firefighter Stephen Siller and his Brooklyn-Battery Tunnel run; Morgan Stanley’s visionary Rick Rescorla, and so very many more … some whose names we’ll never know. . .

Yet America, or at least its leaders, risks falling back into the complacency that led to the atrocity we swore to “never forget.” . . .

In the Middle East, the White House continues to appease terror-funding Iran as it seeks regional dominance, gets ever closer to gaining nukes, bolsters our enemies and uses its proxies to attack our military, slam Red Sea shipping and assault Israel from multiple directions.
