Republican presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy attacked fellow candidate Nikki Haley during Wednesday’s GOP presidential debate, saying her rhetoric will make her a friend of the military-industrial complex.
Haley delivered an articulate defense for the need to provide Ukraine with aid, saying the country is the “first line of defense” against Russian leader Vladimir Putin. She also said that NATO countries such as Poland could be at risk because of Russia’s incursion into Ukraine.“I wish you well in your future career on the board of Lockheed & Raytheon,” Ramaswamy said.
Haley then exclaimed, “I’m not on the boards of Lockheed and Raytheon!”

Former New York City Mayor Rudy Giuliani had a dire warning for supporters and detractors alike on his way to be arrested in Georgia should “the political winds shift, as they always do…” (Video) As the Aug. 25 deadline imposed by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis drew near, the former mayor was one of several co-defendants indicted for an alleged “criminal racketeering enterprise to overturn Georgia’s [2020] presidential election result” expected to have surrendered before Friday.
Faced with the same number of charges as former President Donald Trump, with a number overlapping the president’s as well as the other 17 co-defendants indicted by the state,

The first Republican primary debate descended into chaos on Wednesday night with the candidates shouting over one another in an effort to make their point as they squabbled on a range of issues from climate change to January 6th to foreign policy.
The stakes were high as the eight candidates searched for a breakout, viral moment that would set fire to their campaigns and give them some momentum to catch up with Trump, who leads by double digits in the polls.
It was unclear if any one accomplished that goal. The debate itself was overshadowed by multiple incidents of shouting and yelling. Often words could not be made out in the cross-talk.

Debate security issued a poster of three Trump staffers from Fox News’ spin room, according to reporters at the debate.
The notice was posted at a security table near the metal detectors at the entrance to the debate spin room. The poster shows three photos with the names of three Trump staffers: Jason Miller, Justin Caporale, and Danny Tiso: (X) Miller ripped the poster and the network’s “toilet” ratings.
“Fox News’ ‘Never Trump’ bias against President Trump apparently now extends to his supports as well,” Miller said in a statement. “It’s tacky, it’s petty and it explains why their ratings are in the toilet.”

The former president is set to be booked into Fulton County jail in Atlanta on Thursday after he was indicted in Georgia for his alleged roles in trying to overturn the 2020 election.
He and 18 other defendants were charged by Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis on August 14 on RICO and other charges. Lara, who is married to his son Eric Trump, said it is ridiculous to think someone as famous as Trump would need a mugshot.

“Why is this song striking such a nerve in this country right now? What do you think it means?” the Fox debate moderators asked. (X Video) The fact that Oliver Anthony’s viral song would form the basis for a question at the GOP presidential debate just illustrates how strongly it has resonated among the working class.

In two six-page rulings by Atlanta-based U.S. District Court Judge Steve Jones effectively ensures that Meadows and Clark will face arrest this week, a result both men attempted to prevent in a series of emergency filings.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is making changes to a campaign promise that sought to fight homelessness by raising taxes after drawing concerns about the burdens a tax hike could bring on property owners. Johnson's proposed tax system would shift away from the city's flat tax rate on all property sales in Chicago. His proposal, which initially had two tiers, is now looking to break home sales into three categories, causing dissatisfaction among owners of high-end properties. The original proposal, which Johnson pitched on the campaign trail, called for two tiers: 0.75% tax on home sales below $1 million and 2.65%

The scene of Giuliani, the former New York City mayor and a notable former federal prosecutor, walking into the Fulton County jail is another amazing moment in the ongoing investigation into Trump and his efforts to overturn his 2020 election defeat.
One of Trump’s most outspoken attorneys in 2020, Giuliani was charged with 13 crimes, including breaking the state’s racketeering act, engaging in various criminal conspiracies, and soliciting a public officer in the state to violate their oath.

There is a lot of talk about Ron DeSantis being out of the running for the Republican nomination in 2024.
He’s certainly behind, but the history of races for the nomination (and the general election) is littered with predictions like this that turn out to be wrong. Obama was going to lose. Biden was dead in the water. Kamala Harris! was a favorite. Trump had no chance.
Remember that one? Everyone waited for the collapse of Trump in 2015-16. On the day of the election in 2016, The New York Times gave Hillary Clinton a 99% chance of victory, if you recall.
So it’s no surprise that DeSantis shows no sign

All eyes will be on Milwaukee tonight for the first Republican presidential primary debate. Despite more than eight years of brazen attacks on his opponents since riding down the golden escalator to announce his candidacy in 2015, Donald Trump has decided to sit out this debate. Unsurprisingly, the twice-impeached and now four-time indicted ex-president is, first and foremost, a swampy politician who won’t risk getting rhetorically pummeled by one of his challengers....As former Labor Secretary Robert Reich wrote in an essay last month, Bidenomics “is turning out to be the most successful set of economic policies the United States has witnessed in a half-century.”

President Barack Obama famously warned fellow Democrats in 2020, “Don’t underestimate Joe’s ability to f–k things up.”
The warning was ignored by many as an almost brotherly reference to Biden’s habit of making false claims (like being arrested when seeking to see Nelson Mandela) or his continual verbal gaffes.
Biden has always had a certain penchant for bragging, whether it’s claiming a dead man told him he reached a million miles on Amtrak, being a cross-country trucker or fighting off some “bad dude” named Corn Pop.
But one of those bravado moments may have revealed more than vanity.

By now we are all too familiar with the schemes and plots of the corporate media as they participate in the political illusion of choice game. However, for Rupert Murdoch and Fox News debate moderator Martha MacCallum, this catch shreds the remaining little credibility they carried. Fox News is hosting the GOP debate in Wisconsin. During this build up segment, Martha MacCallum introduces the “random Republican voters” in Wisconsin who will watch the debate. Except, well… there’s a little problem. MacCallum introduces Chris Lawrence as a “Wisconsin GOP voter” who seemingly supports Ron DeSantis. However, MacCallum fails to mention that…

If you’ve read my stuff before, you know I’ve taken it upon myself to be the Paul Revere of the Great Reset, if Paul Revere drove a 2005 Mazda Tribute. #HateToBrag.
Klaus Schwab and his evil teams of toilet people aren’t trying to hide their plans for global domination. Quite the contrary, they write and speak openly about how they intend to impound our cars and purloin our sirloin for cleaner clouds or something.
FACT-O-RAMA! I’m trying to read “COVID-19: The Great Reset,” which is Klaus Schwab’s version of “Mein Kampf,” but it’s written for idiots and full of painfully obvious propaganda.
Here is a video of Klaus Schwab “imagining” a world where

A summer surge of COVID-19 has some wondering aloud if we should return to mask mandates. For now, the official line, despite the media effort to rekindle coronavirus hysteria, is that it’s unlikely. But we heard that before, in 2020, right before public health officials dropped their mask tyranny on us. If they do it again, we have an obligation to say no.
Are we calling for civil disobedience? Are we suggesting that Americans resist orders that are not laws but are instead decrees issued by despots? Absolutely, and without reservation.
Masks are dehumanizing.

"Justice, justice you shall pursue," the Bible commands (Deuteronomy 16:20); and that, in doing justice, one must not "recognize faces."
The late US Supreme Court Justice Felix Frankfurter once observed that the history of liberty is largely a history of procedural fairness. Our constitution embodies that history by reading "the due process of law."
Lately, however, many so-called progressives have been willing to ignore procedural safeguards and due process in their campaign to get former President Donald Trump — to misuse the law in an effort to prevent the leading Republican candidate from running against the incumbent candidate for president. In doing so, they are violating the second principle of justice:

CNN climate reporter Bill Weir gushed over President Joe Biden’s remarks this week in Maui where he compared the worst fire the U.S. has experienced in over 100 years to a small kitchen fire at his home nearly two decades ago.
The Maui wildfires earlier this month killed well over 100 people, with more than 1,000 still unaccounted for, and destroyed nearly 3,000 structures, according to state and local officials. “President and Dr. Biden spent several hours both over Lahaina on the ground here and meeting with both first responders and victims of this tragedy at the big shelter, the War Memorial shelter in central Maui,” Weir began.

George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley recently called the effort by Democrats to keep Trump off the ballot “dangerous.”
Of course, the left doesn’t care. They believe the ends justifies the means.
Democrats would burn the country down to keep Trump from being reelected.
The Daily Caller reports:Jonathan Turley Calls Barring Trump From Ballot ‘The Single Most Dangerous Constitutional Theory’ Ever...George Washington University law professor Jonathan Turley said efforts to block former President Donald Trump using the 14th Amendment were “the single most dangerous constitutional theory” he had seen.

Donald Trump's White House chief of staff launched a last-ditch attempt to avoid being arrested in Georgia - as the deadline looms for the 19 defendants, including the former president, to report to jail for booking.
Mark Meadows is trying to get his trial moved from a state court to a federal one, and on Tuesday, filed a request in federal court begging for his booking to be delayed. He argued his alleged actions took place while he was a federal employee.
Meadows and the other 18 defendants have been given a deadline of noon on Friday to surrender, or else

MILWAUKEE, Wisconsin — Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) told Breitbart News on Tuesday that the Donald Trump-less Republican primary debate on Wednesday is “for the donors and for the campaign consultants, so they can continue making money.”
Greene spoke with Breitbart News in downtown Milwaukee just over 24 hours before the candidates took the stage at the Fiserv Forum for the first debate of the 2024 Republican presidential primary — with former President Trump declining to attend.
Greene, who is also a surrogate for the Trump campaign, argued that given Trump’s wide lead in the polls of likely primary voters, the race for the Republican nomination was all but over,

FBI lovebird Peter Strzok has a special little cold spot for President Trump, and not just because he got fired for unprofessional behavior while on the government's dime during Trump's term of office.
He hates the guy insanely, enough to plot against him with his famous "insurance policy," as he told the FBI official he was having an affair with, and all one needs to do to see it now is to look through the convoluted logic of his Trump-hating tweets. His banner picture at the top of his Twitter account features legal indictment papers of Trump.
So he tweeted this one:
