Kamala Closes an Already Disastrous Week by Trashing Gold Star Families; Trump Releases Statement From Families: Harris ‘Disgracefully Twisted’ Trump Cemetery Visit Into ‘Political Ploy’

/18 Comments/in , , /by

By Breitbart. Incumbent Vice President Kamala Harris closed out what was already a terrible week with a desperate flail trashing 13 Gold Star families that then blew up spectacularly in her stupid and incompetent face.

First, let’s review the last seven days. . .

Kamala’s insanely stupid and cruel Saturday afternoon tweet accusing 13 Gold Star families of agreeing to act as props so Trump could politicize the death of their loved one was unquestionably the act of a desperate campaign panicking over internal poll numbers and hoping to change the narrative on the Sunday shows away from her disastrous CNN interview.

In the history of unforced presidential campaign errors, this one’s a doozy…

Kamala has bragged about being the “last one in the room” when the calamitous decision was made to surrender Afghanistan to terrorists before all of our people and billions of dollars in weaponry had been removed. That’s why these 13 men and women died. (Read more from “Kamala Closes an Already Disastrous Week by Trashing Gold Star Families” HERE)

Trump Releases Statement From Gold Star Families: Harris ‘Disgracefully Twisted’ Trump Cemetery Visit Into ‘Political Ploy’

By Breitbart. Former President Donald Trump released a statement from the Gold Star families of the 13 fallen United States service members who were killed during the Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan.

In a post on X, Trump shared a joint statement from Misty Fuoco, the sister of Marine Corps Sgt. Nicole Gee; Cheryl Juels, the aunt of Gee; Christy Shamblin, the mother-in-law of Gee; Mark Schmitz, the father of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Jared Schmitz; Jaclyn Schmitz, the stepmother of Schmitz; Herman Lopez, the father of Marine Corps Cpl. Hunter Lopez; Jim McCollum, the father of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Rylee McCollum; Steve Nikoui, the father of Marine Corps Lance Cpl. Kareem Nikoui; Coral Doolittle, the mother of Marine Corps Cpl. Humberto Sanchez; Darin Hoover, the father of Marine Corps Staff Sgt. Taylor Hoover; and Kelly Barnett, the mother of Hoover.

The families wrote in their joint statement that Vice President Kamala Harris’s statement labeling Trump’s visit to Arlington National Cemetery to take part in a wreath-laying ceremony to honor the family’s lost loved ones and fallen servicemembers a “political stunt” was “false, hypocritical, and disrespectful.”

In the statement, the families added that Harris had “disgracefully twisted this sacred moment into a political ploy.”

“Today, Gold Star Families who lost their loved ones in the Harris-Biden Administration’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan released the following joint statement and heartfelt video messages in a direct response to Kamala Harris’ false, hypocritical, and disrespectful statement attacking President Trump,” the statement from the families began.

‘Blood on Their Hands!’ Trump Goes Nuclear on Harris and Biden as American Hostage Found Dead

/2 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump is placing full blame for the murder of six hostages in Israel, including one American citizen, on the administration of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris.

“We grieve the senseless death of the Israeli Hostages, horrifically including a wonderful American Citizen, Hersh Goldberg-Polin, murdered by Hamas due to a complete lack of American Strength and Leadership,” Trump said Sunday on X. “Make no mistake – This happened because Comrade Kamala Harris and Crooked Joe Biden are poor Leaders.”

The other hostages whose bodies were recovered overnight Saturday are identified as Eden Yerushalmi, 24, Almog Sarusi, 25, Alexander Lobanov, 32, Carmel Gat, 40, and Master Sgt. Ori Danino, 25.

“Americans are getting slaughtered overseas, while Kamala is disparaging and making up lies about Gold Star families, and Biden is sleeping on the beach on this 16th consecutive day of vacation. They have blood on their hands!” Trump exclaimed.

The Entire Manufactured Controversy Over Trump’s Arlington Cemetery Visit

/2 Comments/in , /by

Taxpayer-subsidized National Public Radio shouldn’t be a starting place for aggressively biased coverage against either Democrats or Republicans. But you can ask Clarence Thomas how the machine works.

On Aug. 27, NPR veterans affairs reporter Quil Lawrence lit into former President Donald Trump for bringing cameras to a section of Arlington National Cemetery with some families of soldiers killed during President Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The entire manufactured controversy is perverse. It’s obvious NPR is exploiting the cemetery for a political goal, and it then spread to the rest of the national media. Trump is showing support for grieving Gold Star families, while Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris would not appear. They were MIA. But Trump was singled out as the one with grotesque political optics, not the no-shows whose negligence cost American lives.

They weren’t seriously considering the Biden-Harris disaster on “All Things Considered.” They could call it “All Democrats Defended.” Conservatives quickly found snapshots from private photographers of Biden in the same sacred section of the Arlington cemetery. That thing cannot be “considered.”

In a different segment of this evening newscast, Lawrence and NPR Pentagon correspondent Tom Bowman reviewed the third anniversary of the Abbey Gate bombing, which led to the death of 13 American service personnel. The segment was headlined: “The chaotic U.S. exit from Afghanistan in 2021 had stems from four administrations.” NPR felt compelled to spread the blame around on everyone.

Trump Reveals He is Voting No on Florida’s Abortion Amendment

/1 Comment/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump revealed that he would be voting no on a proposed abortion amendment in Florida.

When asked by a reporter if he was voting “yes or no” on Amendment 4, Trump explained that while he believes Florida’s six-week abortion ban needs “more time than six weeks,” he will be voting no on Florida’s abortion Amendment, noting that the Democrats were “radical” in their views on abortion.

Under Florida’s Amendment 4, the right to abortion throughout a pregnancy would be enshrined into the state’s constitution.

“I think six weeks, you need more time than six weeks,” Trump said. “I’ve disagreed with that right from the early primaries when I heard about it, I disagreed with it. At the same time, the Democrats are radical because the nine months is just a ridiculous situation, where you can do an abortion in the ninth month.”

“Some of the states like Minnesota and other states have it where you can actually execute the baby after birth, and all of that stuff is unacceptable,” Trump added. “So, I’ll be voting no for that reason.” (Read more from “Trump Reveals He is Voting No on Florida’s Abortion Amendment” HERE)

If Donald Trump’s Sex Life is Fair Game for the Election, So is Kamala Harris’

/1 Comment/in , /by

Pundit and talk radio host Erick Erickson recently went on a rant about how “both parties have nominated terrible candidates whose supporters have decided to behave terribly to bully people into supporting their terrible candidate.” Erickson makes it known he’s still inclined to vote for Trump, but you’d think any prominent right-wing pundit who publicly expresses doubt about Donald Trump two months before the election would be chalked up as a win for Kamala supporters.

But then there’s the Leninist wing of Never Trump. Sarah Longwell, publisher of The Bulwark, a site largely run by fraudulent conservatives who are funded by left-wing billionaires to help Democrats win elections, really didn’t like Erickson’s tone:

Someone sent me a radio rant by @EWErickson about my disagreement with some at the Dispatch in which he said: ‘Kamala Harris has done nothing but climb the ladder of power since the moment she got up off her knees in front of Willie Brown to put it bluntly to you.’ Swell guy.

Setting aside Erickson’s crude imagery, I’ve covered Kamala Harris’ relationship history more extensively before, but here’s a summary of the facts as we know them: When Harris was a subordinate in the San Francisco DA’s office, she started dating Willie Brown, the most powerful man in California politics, who was 31 years older and married. After the current DA passed over Kamala Harris, a woman who failed the bar exam and is not exactly known for her mastery of the law, Brown was instrumental in alienating the existing DA, and was personally involved in raising money and running Harris’ successful campaign to get elected district attorney. Once in office, Harris let a number of Willie Brown’s friends off the hook when they were facing serious charges — including an egregious case where she let a city contractor and Willie Brown donor skate after endangering people’s lives after defrauding taxpayers by using cheaper, structurally unsound recycled concrete to build bridges and other important structures. This was all reported on in detail by local San Francisco media when it happened, who aren’t exactly in the business of pushing right-wing smears.

And yet, Sarah Longwell thinks Erickson is a bad person because he rather bluntly states the fact that Kamala Harris abased herself personally and engaged in political corruption at the behest of a man who demonstrably advanced her political career. I would have been more circumspect than Erickson, but 26 years after Bill Clinton’s “dalliance with an intern,” I’m supposed to believe Longwell and her colleagues are on their fainting couches because a pundit made a reference to oral sex?

‘The Polls Are Rigged’: Trump Gives Mixed Messages on Polling in Race Against Harris

/0 Comments/in , /by

Former President Donald Trump has given conflicting statements on the validity of recent polling in the 2024 race against Vice President Kamala Harris.

At a campaign rally Thursday afternoon in Potterville, Michigan, Trump first claimed that he was doing well in presidential polls before casting doubt on their accuracy.

“Every time they see me going up in the polls, and we’re leading in the polls, and I think we’re leading by a lot. You know, the polls, the polls are rigged too,” Trump told the crowd of supporters. . .

Hours later, during a town hall with former Democratic Hawaii congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard in Wisconsin, Trump bragged about beating Harris in polling.

“The polls have us up here. We’re up in this — we’re up in states, but it’s close. It’s close,” Trump said. “And, you know, they cheat like hell. So we don’t want to have it too close … because we have to get — we have to win this.” (Read more from “‘The Polls Are Rigged’: Trump Gives Mixed Messages on Polling in Race Against Harris” HERE)

Pollster: Kamala Harris’ Lead in Polls Has Reached Peak (VIDEO)

/1 Comment/in , , /by

On Wednesday’s episode of “CNN News Central,” pollster Frank Luntz made a notable declaration regarding Vice President Kamala Harris, stating that her post-nomination “honeymoon phase” appears to have reached its peak. According to Luntz, Harris currently holds a narrow three-point lead over former President Donald Trump. However, despite this temporary advantage, Luntz cautioned that the race remains highly competitive and far from settled.

Luntz, known for his political insights, highlighted the significance of swing states in shaping the outcome of the election. He noted that polls in these crucial states have shown a tightening race between Harris and Trump. On air, Luntz pointedly criticized Trump’s campaign strategy, suggesting that the former president has failed to address the issues that voters are most concerned about. “Donald Trump is already talking about this election being stolen,” Luntz remarked.

Despite the current polling advantage for Harris, Luntz stated that the situation is reminiscent of the 2016 election, where former Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton held a similar lead over Trump before ultimately losing in the electoral college. “The Harris boomlet has reached its peak,” Luntz said. “With her having roughly a three-point advantage, it mirrors the lead Hillary Clinton had over Trump on Election Day 2016. This election is way too close to call.”

Recent polling data from The New York Times/Siena College shows Harris leading Trump by 50% to 46% in key swing states like Wisconsin, Michigan, and Pennsylvania—states critical to Trump’s November bid. However, RealClearPolitics data indicates Trump leading by a slim margin of between 0.2% and 1.4% in several battleground states, including Arizona, Nevada, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Georgia. Harris is reportedly leading Trump by 1% in Wisconsin and 2% in Michigan, according to the same source.

In addition to the polling dynamics, Harris has faced criticism for her economic proposals unveiled in mid-August. Her plans to address “price gouging” by large corporations and implement a federal ban have drawn scrutiny. Critics argue that her approach could lead to higher prices and the creation of black markets.

Brittany Mahomes Appears to Triple Down on Trump Support After Backlash

/0 Comments/in , /by

Brittany Mahomes, the wife of Kansas City Chiefs star quarterback Patrick Mahomes, seems to have tripled down on her apparent Trump support in the face of haters. . .

After intense backlash, Mahomes appeared to remove the like on social media. Still, according to Fox News, the former soccer player “appeared to like several comments on her most recent Instagram post that indicated support for Trump.”

One of the comments she liked said “TRUMP-VANCE 2024.”

The other comment referenced her recent social media activity that has suggested support for Trump and drawn backlash from those who do not support the former president. That comment said, “Glad to see you aren’t backing down. We are all entitled to our own opinions and shouldn’t be bullied into submission.”

Kelly Stafford, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford, appeared to like the second comment.

D.C. Grand Jury Returns Superseding Indictment Against Trump

/2 Comments/in , /by

A Washington, D.C., grand jury returned a superseding indictment against former President Donald Trump on Tuesday on four charges regarding election interference in the 2020 presidential election.

Trump was charged with conspiracy to defraud the United States, conspiracy to obstruct an official proceeding, obstruction of and attempt to obstruct an official proceeding, and conspiracy against rights, according to the indictment.

The charges are the same charges that Special Counsel Jack Smith had previously brought against Trump. However, he reportedly removed “some elements to the case” in response to the Supreme Court’s decision on presidential immunity in July, according to the Hill.

Esquire Suffers Meltdown Over Trump Paying His Respects to Troops Killed in Biden-Harris Afghan Withdrawal

/5 Comments/in , /by

President Donald Trump traveled Monday to Arlington National Cemetery to join several Gold Star families in paying respects to the fallen, specifically the 13 service members killed exactly three years ago in the Biden-Harris administration’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan.

The once and possibly future commander in chief’s effort to keep alive the memories of American service members killed under his successor’s watch provoked a complete meltdown at Esquire magazine.

The Hearst publication’s lead political blogger, Charles P. Pierce, asked in a feverish piece Monday, “How the hell was this allowed to happen[?]”

The cemetery, where just last year the Biden-Harris administration trampled graves and toppled the Jewish American-designed Reconciliation Memorial, is open to members of the public, so it’s unclear who exactly Pierce figured would prevent Trump’s entry.

Nevertheless, Pierce took offense on behalf of the nation, Gold Star families, and those who alternatively watched without objection as Trump joined two service members wounded in the Abbey Gate bombing in laying wreaths at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier, writing:

Arlington is profaned by his presence on just an average day. But to allow itself to be used for the purpose propping up one of the Republican Party’s most noxious half-truths — as promulgated by its most noxious elements personified by its most noxious candidate — is an insult to the over 400 Medal of Honor awardees buried there.
