Trump, Sans Ear Bandage for First Time Since Assassination Attempt, Slams Kamala Harris as a ‘Bum’ in Florida Speech

/5 Comments/in , /by

Donald Trump, appearing at a public event without an ear bandage for the first since he was shot in an assassination attempt, blasted Kamala Harris as a “bum” in a scathing Florida speech Friday.

The former president, 78, tore into the 59-year-old vice president while speaking at a summit hosted by the conservative Christian organization Turning Point Action in West Palm Beach.

“She was a bum 3 weeks ago, she was a bum. A failed VP, in a failed administration, with millions of people crossing and she was the Border Czar,” Trump told the crowd of his likely Democratic opponent in the 2024 presidential race.

The former president also declared Harris — who has secured the requisite amount of delegate support to be named the Democratic nominee — “worse than Joe Biden and in a true sense much more liberal.” . . .

“And by the way, there are numerous ways of saying her name. They were explaining to me, ‘You can say Comma-la, you can say Kah-mala,’” Trump claimed. He consistently uses the latter, which is incorrect. (Read more from “Trump, Sans Ear Bandage for First Time Since Assassination Attempt, Slams Kamala Harris as a ‘Bum’ in Florida Speech” HERE)

Biden Justice Department Just Hashed Out a Corrupt Deal With Lisa Page and Peter Strzok

/4 Comments/in , /by

With the Democratic Party bosses successfully executing their plan to replace Joe Biden, Trump barely surviving an assassination attempt, and the entire 2024 race upended, the Biden Justice Department thought it was an opportune time to settle a with former FBI officials Lisa Page and Peter Strzok. Their long-standing lawsuit involved allegations that their privacy was violated.

In Mr. Strzok’s case, he was terminated from the FBI, and he alleges his firing was politically motivated. He hopes to get his job to obtain full retirement benefits. Given the chaos of the 2024 race right now, to paraphrase the late Philip Seymour Hoffman in Charlie Wilson’s War, As long as the press sees 2024 chaos, Trump, and Kamala behind the left hand, “you can park a battle carrier behind the right hand and no one’s gonna f**king notice” (via NYT):

The Justice Department settled a lawsuit on Friday with two former F.B.I. officials who had accused the Trump administration of violating their privacy by sharing their texts disparaging former President Donald J. Trump with the news media, according to court documents.

As part of the settlement, the government agreed to pay the former officials, Peter Strzok and Lisa Page, concluding at least some of the litigation. The amount was not disclosed in court filings, but Mr. Strzok’s law firm said he received $1.2 million.

Speaker Mike Johnson Puts Kamala Harris’ Border Failures on Full Display

/5 Comments/in , /by

House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) made a surprise visit to the southern border as Vice President Kamala Harris’s failures as border czar are being highlighted as she seeks to secure the Democratic presidential nominee.

After touring the San Diego sector– one of the busiest parts of the U.S.-Mexico border– Johnson attacked Harris and President Joe Biden for blatantly ignoring the crisis that has resulted in tens of millions of illegal immigrants entering the United States.

“We’ve had a very interesting tour here at the San Diego sector. This has become, in many ways, the epicenter of the Biden-Harris border catastrophe,” Johnson said. “Now we’re very concerned in Congress that this illegal immigrant invasion is threatening even the integrity of our elections.”

In March 2021, Harris was tasked with solving the “root causes” of illegal immigration.

However, she abandoned her duties just as quickly as she was given them. (Read more from “Speaker Mike Johnson Puts Kamala Harris’ Border Failures on Full Display” HERE)

‘Just Be Quiet’: Republicans Calling for Biden Resignation Could Be Making Big Electoral Mistake, Strategists Say

/2 Comments/in , /by

Republicans calling for President Joe Biden to resign could be playing into the hands of Vice President Kamala Harris, strategists told the Daily Caller.

After weeks of insisting that he wouldn’t, Biden announced Sunday via Twitter he was dropping out of the presidential race. The president didn’t specify why he dropped out or give a public address, but many Republican lawmakers are arguing that if Biden isn’t up to run for re-election, he shouldn’t be in charge, either. Strategists warned the Daily Caller that Republicans’ wish of a Biden resignation could give Harris a much-wanted boost in the election.

“The power of incumbency is huge. That’s why, even Republicans, who I absolutely think the world of, are making a mistake doing that. It is still good to have that guy out there bumbling and stumbling on the world stage. It is still good for Republicans to have that guy there. The power of incumbency is strong, and the best way for people to see her as a president is her to be a president,” Robert Cahaly, founder of polling organization Trafalgar Group, told the Daily Caller.

Biden disappeared from the public eye July 17 after he was diagnosed with COVID-19, retreating to his home in Delaware to quarantine. Four days later, the president posted a statement to Twitter, alerting the nation that he was dropping out of the race. Biden didn’t give much of a reason, saying he would address the nation later. But in the weeks prior, Democrats and allies circled the 81-year-old, pressuring him to drop out over concerns for his fitness.

Former President Donald Trump announced Friday that he would hold another rally in Butler, Pennsylvania in a post on Truth Social.

Trump revealed the return to the site of the July 13 assassination attempt that injured his right ear when a gunman fired at him from a rooftop in the post on Truth Social early Friday evening. The former president said he intended to honor former volunteer fire chief Corey Comperatore, who was killed in the attack, and two other attendees at the rally who were wounded.

“I WILL BE GOING BACK TO BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA, FOR A BIG AND BEAUTIFUL RALLY, HONORING THE SOUL OF OUR BELOVED FIREFIGHTING HERO, COREY, AND THOSE BRAVE PATRIOTS INJURED TWO WEEKS AGO. WHAT A DAY IT WILL BE — FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT! STAY TUNED FOR DETAILS,” Trump posted in all caps on the site.

Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle resigned Tuesday following disastrous testimony before the House Oversight Committee. (Read more from “Trump Announces Return to Butler for New Rally After Assassination Attempt” HERE)

Disturbed: Harris Once Bragged About Working ‘Behind the Scenes’ to Get Sex Change Surgeries for Trans Inmates

/0 Comments/in , /by

Vice President Kamala Harris previously said she worked “behind the scenes” during her term as California attorney general to secure sex change surgeries for California inmates despite the fact that it was against state policy at the time.

Harris bragged about circumventing the California Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation to ensure that transgender inmates were given access to medical services, including sex-change surgeries, despite denying a surgery request to an inmate in April of 2015, according to the Washington Blade. When asked about her track record during her failed 2020 presidential primary campaign, Harris implied that she sometimes had to do things against her personal beliefs, but insisted that she worked “behind the scenes” to ensure that transgender inmates.

In January of 2019, Harris was facing criticism for her anti-LGBTQ track record as California attorney general when her office denied sex-change surgery for inmates, according to the Blade. In an April 2015 legal filing reported by the Blade, Harris, along with other state attorneys, denied transgender inmate Michelle-Lael Norsworthy’s request to obtain a sex-change surgery.

“Norsworthy has been treated for gender dysphoria for over 20 years, and there is no indication that her condition has somehow worsened to the point where she must obtain sex-reassignment surgery now rather than waiting until this case produces a final judgment on the merits,” the brief reads.

In an attempt to defend herself, Harris maintained that she provided transgender inmates the sex-changes she said they “needed” and “deserved.” (Read more from “Disturbed: Harris Once Bragged About Working ‘Behind the Scenes’ to Get Sex Change Surgeries for Trans Inmates” HERE)

Biden Camp Suggests President Quickly Endorsed Kamala Harris to Defy Barack Obama

/1 Comment/in , /by

There’s buzz swirling within the Biden camp that the president’s swift endorsement of Kamala Harris was his revenge on prominent party leaders — including Barack Obama — who pressured him to bow out of the race against his will, sources told The Post.

Joe Biden, who said he was dropping out “in defense of democracy” during his public address Wednesday, had been told by Obama to allow delegates at next month’s Democratic National Convention in Chicago to decide a new candidate, a source close to the Biden family claimed.

“It was Joe’s big f–k you,” the source said. “Joe said, ‘If I’m out, then I am endorsing her.’”

Talk among insiders is that Biden saw this as a final way to assert some control over his ouster.

A well-placed Democratic Party source said they have heard the same, telling The Post that Obama, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and New York Senator Chuck Schumer wanted to hold “a mini primary” which Obama believed Harris would not win.

Accused Child Rapist Pulled Over for DUI With 6 Kids in His Car, Claims They’re His ‘Friends’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Newly resurfaced footage shows the disturbing DUI arrest of an alleged child rapist who had six young boys and girls in his car along with empty bottles of tequila and Fireball whiskey.

Jeremy Guthrie was arrested two years ago on a New Mexico highway while driving erratically, and police discovered the children — one of whom he allegedly raped and impregnated after meeting on social media.

Police bodycam footage from July 5, 2022, showed then-41-year-old Guthrie driving across a highway, and behaving incoherently once stopped.

When police approached the car, they were stunned to find it full of young boys and girls, who Guthrie claimed were “his friends” and who he insisted, with slurred words, were all 18. . .

Once booked, Guthrie was accused of raping a 12-year-old girl who was in the car. (Read more from “Accused Child Rapist Pulled Over for DUI With 6 Kids in His Car, Claims They’re His ‘Friends’” HERE)

FBI Says Trump Was Indeed Struck by Bullet During Assassination Attempt

/1 Comment/in , /by

Nearly two weeks after Donald Trump’s near assassination, the FBI confirmed Friday that it was indeed a bullet that struck the former president’s ear, moving to clear up conflicting accounts about what caused the former president’s injuries after a gunman opened fire at a Pennsylvania rally.

“What struck former President Trump in the ear was a bullet, whether whole or fragmented into smaller pieces, fired from the deceased subject’s rifle,” the agency said in a statement.

The one-sentence statement from the FBI marked the most definitive law enforcement account of Trump’s injuries and followed ambiguous comments earlier in the week from Director Christopher Wray that appeared to cast doubt on whether Trump had actually been hit by a bullet.

A Majority of Likely Voters Believe the 2024 Election Will Be Tainted by Cheating, Survey Finds

/11 Comments/in , /by

A majority of voters are concerned that the 2024 election will be marred by cheating, a new survey released by Rasmussen Reports and the Heartland Institute finds.

Sixty-two percent of “Likely Voters” are “concerned that cheating will affect the outcome of the 2024 election, including 37% who are Very Concerned,” the survey found. When broken down among presidential preference, 83 percent of voters who claimed they voted for former President Donald Trump in 2020 are “at least somewhat concerned that cheating will affect the outcome of the 2024 election,” the survey found. Forty-two percent of voters who said they supported President Joe Biden in the last election cycle expressed the same concern.

Concerns about the security of mail-in ballots were also raised in the survey. Twenty-two percent of Republicans surveyed as well as 18 percent of both Democrats and participating “voters not affiliated with either major party, [said] they either received more than one official ballot in the mail or received a ballot for someone who does not live at their address in 2020.” The share of voters who said they received “multiple mail-in ballots in 2020 is higher (20%) among voters” in swing states Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, according to the survey.

The survey was conducted amongst 2,466 likely voters nationally and “5,605 likely voters in the battleground states” of Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin. The survey was conducted via phone and online between July 5 – 12.

“The fact that more than 60% of likely voters are concerned about election integrity should be a massive wake-up call to all those who refuse to admit that potential cheating in elections is a major problem,” Editorial Director of The Heartland Institute Chris Talgo said.
