Report: ‘Friction,’ ‘Bad-Mouthing,’ ‘Anxiety’ Infest Dysfunctional Harris Campaign

/1 Comment/in , /by

The Harris campaign spiraled into a power struggle in recent weeks with factions competing for influence and control, six people, including aides familiar with the dynamics, told Politico’s Christopher Cadelago on Monday.

The report described the campaign as rife with “friction,” “internal tensions,” “anxiety,” “raw emotions,” “bad-mouthing,” and “grumbling” that mirror the dysfunction that plagued Harris’s Senate and vice presidential offices.

The competing factions reportedly consist of former Biden staffers and new Harris aides, who do not agree on how to overhaul the campaign’s power structure to prevent former President Donald Trump from completing the greatest political comeback in American political history.

In recent weeks, the campaign hired several former Obama staffers to help run it. But those staffers — including David Plouffe, Obama’s former campaign manager — are not jibing with Jen O’Malley Dillon, the former Biden White House official and Harris campaign chair, Politico reported.

“There is no doubt when you have 2,000 people and you are changing who is at the top of the ticket that it’s going to take a minute to make sure that everyone is seated well, and we still have some work to do on that,” O’Malley Dillon admitted to Cadelago.

Migrants — Including Illegal Alien Convicted of Sex Assault — Raped Woman at Knifepoint in Front of Boyfriend: Police Sources

/0 Comments/in , /by

Two migrants were arrested for a knifepoint rape in Coney Island – including one who illegally crossed into the US at the southern border in 2022 and was then busted four months later on rape charges in Brooklyn, law-enforcement sources said Monday.

David Davon-Bonilla, 24, a Nicaraguan migrant, allegedly grabbed the 46-year-old woman and threw her to the ground before raping her while holding a knife to her throat at Surf Avenue and 16th Street around 9 p.m. Sunday, cops and the sources said.

His alleged accomplice, identified as Mexican migrant Leovando Moreno, 37, is accused of striking the woman’s 34-year-old boyfriend with a pipe when he tried to stop the vicious assault, the sources said.

The horrific attack took place outside a hotel housing asylum seekers.

Davon-Bonilla, who previously lived at a La Quinta Hotel on Third Avenue converted into a migrant shelter, was charged with first-degree rape, second-degree assault, first-degree sexual abuse, menacing and criminal possession of a weapon, the sources said.

Stolen Valor Scandal Deepens: Brazen Tim Walz Sparks Vets’ Fury After Wearing Hat Bearing US Army Special Forces Crest — a Unit He Never Served In

/0 Comments/in , /by

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz was criticized for wearing a hat bearing the U.S. Army Special Forces crest – a unit he never served with. . .

During the show, a picture of the Minnesota governor wearing a camo hat featuring the Special Forces crest was shared.

Some view wearing a hat in support of a military organization as a kind gesture, but it is heavily criticized within military veteran circles. It is frowned upon because it is viewed as misleading people into thinking an individual served with a specific unit.

A U.S. Army Green Beret wrote on X: “Hey Tim Walz, this you? Do you often wear our crest even though you were only National Guard with zero deployments, never went through SFAS or the Q course, and by all accounts never even worked with Special Forces?”

Another X user commented: “As a 20+ year veteran, Tim Walz knows how offensive it is for someone to wear the insignia of a unit they weren’t a part of – especially the 1st Special Forces Command (Airborne). Time for an apology and promise never to do it again. Shame on you Walz.” (Read more from “Stolen Valor Scandal Deepens: Brazen Tim Walz Sparks Vets’ Fury After Wearing Hat Bearing US Army Special Forces Crest — a Unit He Never Served In” HERE)

Pelosi Questions Whether Biden Wrote Letter Saying He’d Stay in 2024 Race: ‘It Didn’t Sound Like Joe’

/2 Comments/in , /by

Ex-House Speaker Nancy Pelosi has openly doubted whether President Biden wrote the letter he sent to Democrats last month insisting he was “firmly committed” to staying in the race.

Biden, 81, sent the missive to congressional Dems to try to put to rest any notion that he’d exit the race over widespread concerns about his mental acuity after his June 27 debate performance against GOP foe Donald Trump. Two weeks later, Biden dropped out.

“I didn’t accept the letter as anything but a letter,” Pelosi told New York Times‘ columnist Ezra Klein in an interview last week. “I mean, there are some people who are unhappy with the letter.

“Let me say it differently. Some said that some people were unhappy with the letter. I’ll put it in somebody else’s mouth. It didn’t sound like Joe Biden to me. It really didn’t,” she said.

Two days after Biden sent the letter, Pelosi (D-Calif.), 84, turned heads with an appearance on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” rumored to be one of the president’s favorite political programs.

JD Vance: Mass Deportations Should ‘Start With 1 Million’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that the Trump administration will start mass deportations with a million people.

Anchor Jonathan Karl said, “One of the proposals in the platform you’ve talked about, and Trump has talked about, is a mass deportation. You said he said he’ll start with the easy ones, the criminals, people who commit crimes, deport them, but he said deporting 15 million to 20 million people, how do you actually do that?

. . .

Vance said, “This is the wrong attitude towards it, right? There’s 20 million people here illegally. You start with what’s achievable. You do that, and then you go onto what’s achievable from there. If you deport a lot of violent criminals and frankly if you make it harder to hire illegal labor, I think you go a lot of the way to solving the illegal immigration problem. But look, President Trump is absolutely right. You cannot have a border unless you’re willing to deport some people. I think it’s interesting that people focus on, well, how do you deport 18 million people? Let’s start with 1 million. That’s where Kamala Harris has failed and we can go from there.” (Read more from “JD Vance: Mass Deportations Should ‘Start With 1 Million’” HERE)

Tim Walz Unleashed a Demonic Bloodlust After Pelosi Told Him to ‘Tone Down’ His Pro-Abortion Stance

/7 Comments/in , , /by

Tim Walz has taken his abortion stance to an extreme and radical level. He is literally a baby killer. His policies are so extreme that he should be facing murder charges. Tim is totally controlled by the crazy Minnesota “Feminanzi” crowd that keeps a tight leash on the suffering men of Minnesota, starting with his wife and daughter, so he signed an executive order as governor permitting abortions up until birth in the state.

To call this abomination anything but murder is to completely ignore the deeply demonic nature of Tim’s policy.

Tim Walz has no regard for human life. His law allows for abortions at nine months, with the State footing the bill. It’s so disturbing and disgusting, it’s hard to even discuss. We treat our dogs better than this. Even convicted murderers and rapists get better treatment than the innocent babies in Tim Walz’s state of Minnesota. Tim Walz, who’s already pushing a radical trans agenda on kids, is actually proud of his extreme abortion views, which are legalizing first degree murder. So when Nancy Pelosi told him to tone it down, he flipped out on stage, showing a kind of demonic bloodlust we’ve never seen before.

President Trump nailed it. Harris/Walz is the most pro-abortion ticket in US election history. True to form, these two ghouls are pushing abortion to the absolute extreme in order to win over the bitter, angry “cat ladies” of the Dem party. These are the types who despise men and babies, caring only about boxed wine and cats. This ticket is custom-made for the radical extremists on the left, but they have nothing in common with average, decent Americans.

Highest-Ranking Enlisted Veteran Ever to Serve in Congress Blasts Tim Walz’s Stolen Valor

/5 Comments/in , , /by

When Rep. Tony Gonzales, R-Texas, entered the 117th Congress in 2021, Tim Walz was already serving as governor in Minnesota after his six terms in Congress. But on many occasions, Gonzales heard about Walz’s claim to be the “senior-most enlisted service member to have been elected to Congress” based on his service as a command sergeant major (E9).

The discussion never really bothered Gonzales, himself a retired master chief petty officer (E9), but he recalls hearing about it. “I’m not really the type that cares about this sort of title or brags about my service,” he told me in a phone interview. But in recent days, as more disclosures about Walz’s service have come to light, it dawned on Gonzales and his team that he was the elected representative actually entitled to that particular honorific. “I was under the impression that he was an E9, so when I learned the truth, I was like, ‘Are you kidding?’”

In a tweet Thursday evening, Gonzales said, “I proudly served 20 years in the U.S. Navy, with multiple deployments to Afghanistan and Iraq — retired as a Master Chief. Yes, that makes me the highest ranked enlisted service member to EVER serve in Congress. A claim Gov. Walz has falsely paraded around. It’s important to call out DISHONESTY.” He went on to call for Walz’s withdrawal as Democrats’ presumptive vice presidential nominee.

In our interview barely an hour before sending the tweet, Gonzales minced even fewer words: “In my eyes, that’s stolen valor,” an affront to the honor and distinction of those who have legitimately earned their stripes through years of dedicated service.

In Congress, titles and honors typically reflect a history of service that is sometimes embellished by campaign consultants to better market their candidate. But in the military — where titles and honors represent sacrifice and sacred commitment — the precision of the words used is extremely important. When these two worlds collide, a fierce debate can erupt. (Read more from “Highest-Ranking Enlisted Veteran Ever to Serve in Congress Blasts Tim Walz’s Stolen Valor” HERE)

Kamala Harris Fails to Distance Herself From Left-Wing 2020 Campaign, Despite Aides’ Best Efforts

/3 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris hasn’t personally disavowed her 2020 campaign positions, instead opting to avoid the press and leave her staff to issue anonymous statements on her policy reversals.

Harris briefly spoke to reporters on Thursday for the first time since launching her campaign for president, answering questions about her debate plans and future interview requests — but she didn’t touch on her current policy stances. Instead of explaining her platform, Harris has left her current positions up to her campaign, which has issued anonymous statements walking back several of her previous statements.

Her aides’ latest policy switch-up came after the Uncommitted National Movement, a Palestinian activist group that has been vocally critical of Israel’s war in Gaza, said it had met with the vice president, who told them she was open to discussing an arms embargo on Israel. The vice president’s national security adviser, Phil Gordon, responded saying Harris has been “clear” about the issue, and that she “does not support an arms embargo on Israel.” Harris has not spoken on the issue herself.

Other reversals from Harris aides came within the first ten days of her campaign. When running for president four years ago, the now-vice president came out in favor of a ban on fracking, mandatory federal gun buybacks and the abolition of private health insurance.

An anonymous Harris campaign official first walked back Harris’ fracking stance on July 26, according to the Hill. (Read more from “Kamala Harris Fails to Distance Herself From Left-Wing 2020 Campaign, Despite Aides’ Best Efforts” HERE)

Trump Charges That Dems Stole Presidential Campaign From Biden

/3 Comments/in , /by

GOP presidential nominee President Donald Trump is seeking the White House in the November election and has made clear his intention is to win the race.

But his opponent now apparently is Kamala Harris, instead of incumbent Joe Biden, who had promised for years that he would seek another term. And he had been doing that actively until he wasn’t. . .

According to a report by the Daily Signal, he said, “I’m no Biden fan, but I’ll tell you what, from a constitutional standpoint, from any standpoint, they took the presidency away.”

He charged that powerful Democrats literally decided to throw Biden out, and he was pushed out of the race.

“People were saying he lost the debate. I don’t know that that is true necessarily. But whether he could win or he couldn’t win, he had the right to run. And they took it away. They said they were going to use the 25th Amendment. They were going to hit him hard. Either we can do it the nice way or do it the hard way. And he said alright. What they’ve done is pretty incredible.” (Read more from “Trump Charges That Dems Stole Presidential Campaign From Biden” HERE)
