It Was an Absolute Freak Show at Kamala Harris’ Nevada Rally

/7 Comments/in , , /by

This is America. I can call you a freak, but that doesn’t mean I think you should be jailed for it. On the flip side, liberals think I should be imprisoned for believing in freedom, gun rights, and freedom of speech and for showing complete and utter disdain for political correctness. Biden’s Justice Department is dispatching FBI agents to speak with people who are sharing memes that are attacking this administration. . .

These antics are weird but not nearly as bizarre at the attendees as last night’s Nevada rally. We had a trans man give its spiel, while an “alternative” person said she feels if Trump wins, she won’t be allowed to dress or wear the many noise, ear, and eye piercings she was sporting at the event. You can’t be jailed for that stuff, lady. We also had another rendition of people being incapable of naming a single Harris accomplishment:

Why Tulsi Gabbard Was Put on TSA’s Suspected Terror Watchlist

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Republican Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (R-HI) is speaking out after the Biden Administration quietly put her on the Transportation Security Administration’s (TSA) terrorist watchlist.

Last month, Gabbard and her husband were at the airport waiting to board their flight when they found that their boarding passes were marked with “SSSS,” which stands for “Quad S.” This means that a passenger is viewed as a potential threat and subject to random searches. She also will unknowingly have two explosive detection canine teams, a transportation security specialist, an undercover TSA supervisor, and three federal air marshals on any flight she boards.

“I had the audacity to tell the truth: that Kamala Harris would essentially be a mouthpiece and puppet of the Military Industrial Complex and National Security State. The next day, July 23, they retaliated,” Gabbard said. “Sadly, this is what we can expect from the ‘Harris’Administration.”

Gabbard said, via Racket News, that she didn’t think much of it until she saw an article in Uncover DC revealing that the Republican had been put on the TSA’s “Quiet Skies” list.

“When I saw that, I thought, ‘Wow, okay. So everything I was experiencing was exactly what I feared was going on,” she said. “It’s bringing to the forefront… how brazen the political retaliation and abuse of power continues to be under the Biden-Harris administration.”

Man’s 30-Year Hobby Reportedly Leads to Stunning Discovery of 3,000-Year-Old Artifact

/1 Comment/in , , /by

A Wisconsin man’s metal detecting hobby has reportedly unearthed a remarkable piece of history in the form of an ancient spearhead, according to a Saturday report.

Dick Banaszak, a 65-year-old Public Works employee found a 3,000-year-old Copper Culture spearhead along the Root River in Racine, according to Newsweek. The find is particularly noteworthy given its location in the southernmost part of the Great Lakes region, where such discoveries are rare.

Banaszak found the spearhead while using his metal detector, a hobby he has enjoyed for three decades. “I went and sat under a tree,” he told Newsweek. “Just sat there, picked the dirt off it and was like, ‘Wow, this is thousands of years old, it was amazing, and now I have it in my hand.’”

The man says he brought the spearhead to a local university’s archaeology department which identified the artifact as a socketed-tang spear point.

Turbulence is Getting Worse on Flights — but One Pilot Says Mandatory Seat Belts Won’t Help Keep People Safe

/2 Comments/in , , /by

Turbulence has become more frequent. It’s a trend American Airlines Captain Dennis Tajer has experienced firsthand.

For the safety of his passengers, Tajer, a pilot for over 30 years, said it’s vital that they wear seat belts at all times while seated, even if it’s not mandated by law. . .

According to a 2023 study by researchers at the University of Reading in the United Kingdom, clear-air turbulence has increased in regions around the world.

Over the North Atlantic, which is one of the busiest flight routes, the total annual duration of severe turbulence increased by 55% between 1979 and 2020.

Moderate turbulence increased by 37%, and light turbulence increased by 17%. All the aforementioned increases were consistent with the effects of climate change, according to the study, which was published in Geophysical Research Letters.

The United States Military’s Top Shooters Are in Position to Target Iran

/2 Comments/in , /by

Hurry up. America’s top shooters are moving into position to target Iran. With Sunday night’s announcement hastening the aircraft carrier USS Abraham Lincoln and moving the submarine USS Georgia under U.S. Central Command’s control, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin is making sure U.S. Central Command is prepared to attack Iran, and/or its proxies, if Tehran strikes Israel in the next few days.

Air Force F-22 fighter jet pilots have already unpacked their bags at a Middle East base where they arrived Aug 8. Here are more top shooters under Central Command’s operational control – that we know of. . .

It’s very unusual for the Pentagon to make announcements about secretive submarines. But then, the USS Georgia is a very special vessel. Powered by a nuclear reactor, the USS Georgia began life as an Ohio-class “boomer” designed to carry nuclear weapons, then underwent a high-tech conversion into a conventional guided-missile attack submarine. Now she can carry an astounding 154 precision Tomahawk Land Attack Cruise Missiles. And SEAL teams with mini-submarines. Add in a highly advanced communication suite, and USS Georgia can stare down Iran all by herself.

The Feds’ Election Interference Didn’t Stop After 2020, It Just Got More Sophisticated

/2 Comments/in , /by

America’s speech police are reassembling to once again influence our elections. At the same time the security state is creating potential pretexts for renewed censorship by issuing warnings of cyberattacks that could “hinder public access to election information,” they are also reprising old claims of coming Russian election interference on behalf of Donald Trump.

The little-noticed development comes in a report from the Justice Department’s Office of Inspector General (OIG) on the DOJ’s efforts to “Coordinate Information Sharing About Foreign Malign Influence Threats to U.S. Elections” — a euphemism for the chief law enforcement agency’s prior censorship activities.

During the 2020 election, as revealed in litigation, congressional oversight, and reporting, national security and law enforcement agencies used the threat of foreign misinformation and disinformation on social media to U.S. elections as a pretext to surveil and suppress domestic news and opinions deemed derogatory to our ruling regime.

An alphabet soup of agencies coerced, cajoled, and colluded directly and via cutouts with social media companies to get those companies to squash all manner of wrongthink on election integrity and outcomes at mass scale.

While the OIG explicitly omitted the “FBI’s information sharing with social media companies with respect to domestic actors” from its report, the DOJ’s response to the office’s recommendations will likely have substantial bearing on Americans’ speech.

Officials Issue High-Risk Recall of Candy Due to Salmonella Fears

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Sweet treats found in several stores across the nation are being recalled due to the risk of salmonella, which can cause serious illness.

Some of the retailers affected are Walmart, Target, and Dollar General where Palmer Candy Company’s “White Coated Confectionary Items” are sold, Fox Business reported Saturday.

The company is recalling the treats because “they have the potential to be contaminated with Salmonella, an organism that can cause serious and sometimes fatal infections in young children, frail or elderly people, and others with weakened immune systems,” the FDA noted in May.

“Palmer Candy was notified by its liquid coating supplier that there was a potential for contamination with salmonella from an ingredient that was potentially contaminated from one of their suppliers,” officials added.

On Tuesday, the recall was deemed at the highest risk level, which is a class one. However, there are no reports of people being hurt or made sick. (Read more from “Officials Issue High-Risk Recall of Candy Due to Salmonella Fears” HERE)

Democrats Announce Push to Add Overseas Votes in Effort to Pad Swing-State Support

/2 Comments/in , /by

Democrats will invest hundreds of thousands of dollars in registering and turning out voters living abroad to help the party win crucial swing state elections in November, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) announced Monday.

The $300,000 investment is earmarked for an organization called Democrats Abroad, which works to mobilize members of the Democratic Party living in foreign countries to vote and engage in liberal activism, according to the DNC. Democrats say this is the first time in a presidential election that they have funded voter outreach to the millions of Americans living abroad, only 8% of whom the DNC claims are registered to vote.

“This election will be won on the margins, and every single vote counts,” DNC Deputy Executive Director Roger Lau said in the press release. “With the largest investment in Democrats Abroad this cycle, we’re going to win this election by engaging voters inside and outside the U.S., and this investment shows our commitment to leaving no stone left unturned.”

The 2024 presidential election is shaping up to be a tight race, with Vice President Kamala Harris leading former President Donald Trump by just one point as of August 12 in The New York Times’ average of polls. Harris and Trump are also neck and neck in polls covering key swing states.

“Team Trump is leaving no stone unturned by meeting voters where they are and encouraging every eligible Republican voter to cast their ballot for President Trump,” Republican National Committee Spokeswoman Anna Kelly told the Daily Caller News Foundation when asked about what efforts conservatives were looking at to match Democratic operations. “Through programs like Protect the Vote and Swamp the Vote, the RNC and Team Trump are protecting the vote via our first-of-its-kind, year-round Election Integrity Department while maintaining a robust political operation through offices and staff in every battleground state.” (Read more from “Democrats Announce Push to Add Overseas Votes in Effort to Pad Swing-State Support” HERE)

Listen: Cops Scramble to Secure Hospital for Biden Health Scare

/2 Comments/in , /by

Officers from the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department rushed to clear roads and secure the perimeter of a hospital that had been placed on standby to treat President Joe Biden for a medical issue last month, according to radio transmission recordings obtained by the Daily Beast.

It remains unclear what exactly the undisclosed medical issue was, though the White House announced later that day he had been diagnosed with COVID-19.

“Meet at the Valley Hospital ER parking lot. We’re going to meet behind the ER entrances, where the ambulances go,” an officer says in one of the transmissions, which were sent to the Daily Beast in response to a public records request to the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police Department.

The radio transmissions were broadcast on July 17, after the president abruptly canceled a speaking engagement on a campaign trip in Las Vegas, Nevada, where he was set to address Hispanic voters at the UnidosUS event.

Executives of Voting Machine Firm Suing to Silence Election Reporting Indicted for Bribery

/1 Comment/in , /by

Afederal grand jury indicted executives of the voting machine company Smartmatic, along with the Philippines’ former top elections official, Thursday for participating in an “alleged bribery and money laundering scheme.” Smartmatic is currently suing conservative media outlets over their 2020 election reporting.

Roger Piñate and Jorge Vasquez are accused of taking part in a scheme that involved laundering money and paying $1 million in bribes to Juan Andres Bautista, former chair of the Philippines Commission on Elections, from 2015 to 2018, according to a Department of Justice press release.

The “co-conspirators” allegedly bribed Bautista to “obtain and retain business related to providing voting machines and election services for the 2016 Philippine elections and to secure payments on the contracts,” according to the release. They allegedly “laundered funds” through banks on three continents, including in the Southern District of Florida, where Piñate and Vasquez reside.

The release did not mention Smartmatic by name, but said the indictment targeted “three executives” of an “election voting machine” company. Piñate is president and co-founder of Smartmatic and Vásquez worked as an executive. Elie Moreno, who was Smartmatic’s Philippines general manager, is also charged in the indictment.

All four individuals are charged with “one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering and three counts of international laundering of monetary instruments,” the release said. If convicted, they could each face a maximum sentence of 20 years for each charge. (Read more from “Executives of Voting Machine Firm Suing to Silence Election Reporting Indicted for Bribery” HERE)
