Team Harris ‘Flooded’ Swing State Campuses To Secure College Voting Bloc — Failure Could Cost Them The Election

Michigan’s state university system was key to keeping the state blue in 2020. In 2024, with the polls showing Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump running neck-and-neck, turning out state schools’ student body to the polls has taken on a new level of urgency for Democrats.

Democrats have been furiously campaigning in the state, particularly on Michigan State University’s (MSU) campus just east of the state’s capital. Many are warning of the “dangers” of a second term under Republican presidential nominee and former president Donald Trump and pleading with students to vote for Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris.

Recent polling shows Trump closing in on Harris’ lead in Michigan, which has the power to shift the election. If Trump secures the battleground state of Arizona, Nevada, and North Carolina, a win in Michigan is enough to put him back in the White House.

“We know that Gen-Z has the power to keep Michigan blue,” Stella Camerlengo, communications director for the Michigan Federation of College Democrats, told the Daily Caller News Foundation. “We saw it in 2020 with young people having the largest turnout in Michigan, and we hope to see it again in 2024. Because the election is so close and we are in a swing state, we have flooded our campuses with Harris Campaign surrogates, voter registration efforts, and holding other events to make sure young people are voting blue this fall.”

Students have historically been one of the most reliable demographics for Democrats, however, increasing tensions on campus over the conflict in Gaza may be weakening their support for the party. Muslim Michiganders have already engaged in a concerted effort to deny Harris the vote. (Read more from “Are Elected Republicans Ready To Respond To Potential Post-Election Chaos?” HERE)

Chinese Citizen Charged After Allegedly Voting Illegally in Key State — But Vote Will Still Count

A Chinese citizen, who attends the University of Michigan, was charged for allegedly voting illegally in the key battleground state of Michigan – and that student’s vote will still be counted.

A spokesperson for the Michigan Secretary of State confirmed to Fox News Digital that the Chinese citizen voted at a polling place at the University of Michigan Museum of Art on Sunday, Oct. 27.

The state’s top authorities condemned the 19-year-old’s actions, saying that since the man is not a U.S. citizen, he cannot vote in federal elections.

“Only U.S. citizens can register and vote in our elections. It is illegal to lie on any registration forms or voting applications about one’s citizenship status. Doing so is a felony,” Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson and Washtenaw County Prosecutor Eli Savit wrote in a joint statement.

Despite the fact that the Chinese citizen’s ballot was cast illegally, it is expected to be counted in the upcoming election. (Read more from “Chinese Citizen Charged After Allegedly Voting Illegally in Key State — But Vote Will Still Count” HERE)

Kamala Harris Met Secretly With Radical, Antisemitic Dearborn, Michigan, Mayor

Vice President Kamala Harris secretly met last week with the radical, antisemitic mayor of Dearborn, Michigan, in an effort to court Muslim- and Arab-American voters.

The meeting was reported by the Associated Press, buried within an article published on Saturday about the so-called “uncommitted” group of voters, particularly in Michigan, who are trying to push the Democratic Party into an openly anti-Israel position.

The AP reported:

Top Democrats have spent weeks meeting with “uncommitted” voters and their allies — including a previously unreported sit-down between Vice President Kamala Harris and the mayor of Dearborn, Michigan — in an effort to respond to criticism in key swing states like Michigan, which has a significant Arab American population.

During a campaign trip to Michigan last week, Harris met with Abdullah Hammoud, the 34-year-old mayor of Dearborn, a Detroit suburb that has the largest number of Arab Americans of any city in the United States. The meeting was disclosed by a person who was not authorized to discuss it publicly and spoke on condition of anonymity.

The person familiar with the meeting did not provide specific details but said the focus was on Harris’ potential policy, if elected, on the Israel-Hamas conflict. Hammoud declined to comment.

‘My Head Started Hurting’: 12-Year-Old Mistakenly Served Alcohol at Outback Steakhouse

A 12-year-old boy in Livonia, Michigan, accidentally consumed an alcoholic drink at an Outback Steakhouse and went to the hospital as a result.

The boy, identified as Mekyle Cureton, visits the restaurant often and always orders a virgin strawberry daiquiri, Fox 2 reported Tuesday.

However, on his most recent visit, the drink did not taste as it had in the past because it had rum in it.

“My head started hurting when I was leaving and my heart started beating as I was drinking it,” Cureton explained.

The Queen Bee Mixology website lists the ingredients of its strawberry daiquiri recipe as white rum, lime juice, simple syrup, strawberry puree, and frozen strawberries. (Read more from “‘My Head Started Hurting’: 12-Year-Old Mistakenly Served Alcohol at Outback Steakhouse” HERE)

Swing State’s Supreme Court Rejects Bid to Kick Trump off Primary Ballot

The Michigan Supreme Court refused a liberal group’s effort to remove Donald Trump from the 2024 presidential primary ballot on Wednesday, roughly a week after Colorado’s high court ruled against the former president in a similar case.

A brief order said the Michigan justices “are not persuaded that the questions presented should be reviewed by this Court,” rejecting the challenge from Free Speech For The People that seeks to disqualify Trump based on the view that he engaged in an insurrection on January 6, 2021.

The application sought to challenge the Michigan Court of Appeals decision that left the issue of primary ballot access up to the Republican Party but declined to rule on whether Trump is qualified to be on the general election ballot because he has not won the GOP nomination.

One of the Michigan Supreme Court justices, Elizabeth Welch, wrote in an opinion that the lower-court ruling “still allows appellants to renew their legal efforts as to the Michigan general election later in 2024 should Trump become the Republican nominee for President of the United States or seek such office as an independent candidate.” (Read more from “Swing State’s Supreme Court Rejects Bid to Kick Trump off Primary Ballot” HERE)

When a Christian Professor Spoke About His Struggle With Homosexuality, the LGBT Mob Came for Him

. . .Just look at Western Michigan University. In 2021, WMU fired adjunct music professor Daniel Mattson solely for writing about his religious views off-campus on his own time. After a remarkably short seven months of litigation, Mattson was vindicated this year on Oct. 31. . .

In 2009, Mattson returned to Catholicism and left behind his prior homosexual lifestyle. For several years, he wrote articles and spoke at public events explaining how the church should engage with people who experience same-sex attraction. All the while, Mattson strictly compartmentalized his religious activity from his work at WMU. He never initiated a discussion about his religious beliefs or views concerning sexuality with students. . .

In October 2021, Mattson agreed to perform as a guest artist at the School of Music. A recently appointed faculty member and LGBT activist discovered Mattson’s writings on his experiences with homosexuality and his recommitment to the Catholic faith. She launched a campaign to cancel Mattson’s planned events. As she posted to Twitter: “I won’t be going to any recitals by ex-gay activists, thanks.”

She engaged students, faculty members, and DEI administrators in this effort. In the weeks leading up to the recital, there was extensive discussion over email and on social media among faculty and students, many of whom expressed support for the idea that Mattson’s presence on campus was “harmful” to students who identify as LGBT.

The administration’s response to the outcry over Mattson’s religious speech was swift and harsh. Matson was first stripped of his core duties, hindered in important school activities, and finally, WMU refused to renew his teaching contract.

No, This Isn’t the Gaza Strip; It’s a Convention Hall in Michigan… (VIDEO)

You will raise an eyebrow or two at the video we’re about to present. It’s not footage from a Hamas gathering, but rather a rally right in Dearborn, Michigan. During the pro-Palestinian event, attendees were waving Palestinian flags high inside the spacious Ford Community & Performing Arts Center. The rallygoers seemed to have found their new favorite team: Hamas. “You think we’re going to zip our lips and tiptoe around when folks label Hamas as a terrorist gang? Think again. They aren’t the bad guys,” declared one speaker. His comments were met with roaring cheers from the crowd. But he didn’t stop there. “You want a real terrorist? Point your finger at Benjamin Netanyahu and his posse,” he proclaimed. The applause just kept coming. “And it’s not just Netanyahu; it’s every puppet dancing on his strings, backing his agenda in Palestine,” he added, fueling even more cheers.

This was the scene in Dearborn, Michigan, right after the pro-Palestinian speaker defended Hamas.

It’s unsettling watching that crowd, particularly when you realize they’re in Michigan. Considering recent horrors—the killing of innocents and families torn to shreds by blood-thirsty terrorists who make ISIS seem tame—it’s a tough pill to swallow. Dearborn, Michigan, for those who haven’t visited, doesn’t look, smell, or feel like America. This video is from six years ago. It’s even farther gone these days. Watch this and see if it looks remotely like America.

Setting foot in Dearborn feels like stepping into Iraq, Lebanon, or the Gaza Strip. This highlights a concerning trend: foreigners arrive here and refuse to assimilate into our culture, and they transform parts of our country into reflections of the hell holes they left behind. Furthermore, those cheering for Hamas inside the Ford auditorium don’t embody the American spirit, and make no mistake about it, they would cheer just as fervently if our homeland faced attacks.

WATCH: Student Hurled Chair at Unsuspecting Teacher’s Head, Knocking Her to the Ground

A Michigan student hurled a metal chair at her unsuspecting teacher, knocking her to the ground, during a heated argument with another student — in what leaders are calling proof of the state’s failing school system.

Insane video shows the Flint Southwestern Academy High School student pacing near the classroom’s door Thursday as she screams at an out-of-view peer.

The bickering teenagers hurled profanities at one another, with the attacker apparently calling the other “big as f–k.”

[Warning: video contains explicit content.]

The teacher — who can be seen attempting to quell the chaos — was standing between the students when she caught the brunt of the attacker’s ire.

The chair struck her in the head and she dropped to the ground, remaining immobile for several seconds. (Read more from “Student Hurled Chair at Unsuspecting Teacher’s Head, Knocking Her to the Ground: Video” HERE)

Disturbing: Transgender ‘Muslim Woman’ Demands Ex-Boyfriend Return His Frozen Testicles (VIDEO)

A Michigan man who identifies as a Muslim woman has filed a legal claim to retrieve his amputated testicles from his ex-boyfriend’s refrigerator.

“Defendant retains possession of my surgically extracted testicles, preserved in [a] Mason jar, kept in [the] fridge next to the eggs. Demand immediate return of my human remains specimen and damages of $6,500,” 40-year-old Brianna Kingsley wrote in an affidavit against 37-year-old William Wojciechowski, according to a report by Reduxx.

In April, Kingsley posted a TikTok video titled “The Unboxing of Dee’s Nutz,” which showed him clad in a lace veil and a pink dress, removing a clear bag with a biohazard label.

The video was captioned, “Transgender woman unboxes her surgically extracted lady balls that was [sic] packaged by the Hospital that performed her gender-affirming bottom surgery.”

In the video, Kingsley held up the bag reportedly containing his testicles, then returned them to the box before performing a curtsy.

News Station Director Fired After Asking Journalists to Tone Down Coverage of Pride Events Following Viewer Complaints

The director of a local news station in Michigan has been fired, as has an assistant director, after issuing a memo to journalists asking them to cover Pride events in a more “balanced” way.

WOOD-TV8 — an NBC affiliate based out of Grand Rapids, Michigan — terminated news director Stanton Tang and assistant news director Amy Fox for releasing the intra-office memo regarding coverage of Pride Month events. According to excerpts of the memo, news station officials had received complaints from viewers who were upset by the station’s supposedly fawning coverage of LGBTQ events.

“We know that West Michigan is a Conservative area in many ways,” the memo said, according to reports. “We need to recognize that some stories related to LGBTQ issues are going to be controversial and polarizing in our community. While you personally may not agree with a certain position, people are entitled to their opinions, and they are our viewers.”

The WOOD-TV memo asked journalists to cover Pride events selectively, based on their “newsworthy-ness.” Should a story be deemed newsworthy, journalists should then make every effort to stay “balanced and get both sides of the issue.” Tang reportedly requested the memo, and Fox reportedly wrote and sent it on his behalf.

Newsroom staff apparently responded to the directive with a mixture of defiance and fury. Based on comments from unnamed employees quoted in the Desk, many staff members experienced significant emotional turmoil on account of the memo. “The toxic atmosphere created by Stanton’s behavior has had a profound impact on the well-being and morale of our team,” one employee said in an email to the Desk. Another claimed that emotions at the station were “still raw.” A third employee, identified as a journalist, stated, “This whole situation killed what used to be a very enjoyable job. I have no passion for it anymore.” (Read more from “News Station Director Fired After Asking Journalists to Tone Down Coverage of Pride Events Following Viewer Complaints” HERE)
