Democratic strategist James Carville said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Vice President Kamala Harris was “not close” to beating former President Donald Trump in November. Guest host Michael Steele said, “I want to touch on a little bit of the noise he made earlier this week, which I personally appreciated and wanted to make sure people understood what I thought of what you said, when you caution folks. All the exuberance and all the excitement we are seeing right now in the campaign is good, it’s healthy, it is important, particularly given the campaign for Joe Biden was. Your point is don’t let that exuberance cloud

While it certainly hasn't been a quiet summer, considering Donald Trump was almost assassinated, Joe Biden appeared barely sentient at the presidential debate and was forced to the side by Madam Pelosi, and Kamala Harris suddenly became the greatest politician who ever lived in the eyes of the corporate media.
But there was one thing we didn’t see, and it was a nice miss: unhinged pro-Hamas protests on our nation’s campuses. Students and organizers took off on their summer break and hopefully found something productive to do. Unfortunately, however, the new academic year starts up again soon, and the extremists have been busy making sure they're ready for more destruction:
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said that she thinks President Biden should be added to Mount Rushmore during an interview with CBS News aired on Sunday.
"He was in a good place," she said about Biden. "Top of his game. Such a consequential president of the United States. A Mount Rushmore kind of president of the United States."
"You've got Teddy Roosevelt up there -- and he's wonderful. I'm not saying take him down, but you can add Biden," Pelosi said. Pelosi also denied making any calls to force Biden from power: "He knows that I love him very much."
British Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer has seen his approval ratings plunge by 16 points in the past two weeks amid criticism of his handling of widespread anti-mass migration uprisings and the decision by his government to implement major cuts to winter fuel benefits.
Just one month after sweeping to power in last month’s general election, it appears that the honeymoon is over for Sir Keir Starmer.
According to the latest survey from Opinium, the left-wing leader has seen his net approval rating fall to just 3 per cent, down from 19 per cent two weeks ago, representing a decline of 16 points in a fortnight.
The coming terrorist attacks

Scarcely a week goes by we don’t hear about more known terrorists caught—most are never caught--at the border, like these:
Border Patrol agents took three suspected Palestinian terrorists into custody earlier this month after they illegally crossed the border from Mexico into California, the New York Post reported. One of the men reportedly had a “salacious photo” of a masked man holding an AK-47 rifle, the article states. Just another day at the border, just another batch of Islamist terrorists who happened to stroll across the Atlantic or Pacific on their way to our southern border. Nothing to see here; move along, move along.

Boom, Cont'd: Mole Hunt Raging in Tehran

Call it the gift that keeps on giving.
Israel stunned the world and humiliated the Iranians in killing Hamas chief Ismail Haniyeh this week while a guest in Tehran for the presidential inauguration. The explanation of how they carried out the precision bombing rattled the Iranians even more. The Mossad penetrated the Iranian Revolutionary Guard's most trusted protective service, hiring more than one of their agents to plant that bomb as well as others in a compound considered the most secure in Tehran:
The Telegraph [link here, paywalled -- Ed] cited two Iranian officials as saying that the initial plan was to assassinate Haniyeh when he was in Tehran
I officially nominate Elon Musk for the title of “Most Interesting Man in the World,” a moniker made famous by the hysterical Dos Equis beer commercials of years past.
The Tesla CEO and Twitter/X owner appeared on the Lex Fridman Podcast posted Friday to talk about the incredible advances in brain-computer interfacing his company Neuralink is achieving—they hope to have devices in at least 10 people in the near future, he says—but he also weighed in on the presidential election and how the assassination attempt on GOP nominee Donald Trump was a truly iconic moment.

In a Twitter post just yesterday, gun rights advocate Kyle Rittenhouse surprised many when he claimed:
"unfortunately, Donald Trump has bad advisers, making him bad on the Second Amendment", which protects gun ownership in the US."
... and ...
"If you cannot be completely un-compromisable on the Second Amendment, I will not vote for you and I will write somebody else in. We need champions for the Second Amendment or our rights would be eaten away and eroded daily. I support my decision and I have no take-backs." Rittenhouse said he would write in libertarian and former presidential nominee Ron Paul on the ballot.
The tweets have since been deleted,
Former President Donald Trump said Friday on Fox Business Network’s “Mornings With Maria Bartiromo” that Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg called him after the assassination attempt and apologized for Facebook and Instagram censoring photos of him with his fist raised.
Trump said, “Mark Zuckerberg called me. First off he called me a few times after the event and said that was amazing and brave and actual he announced he is not going to support a Democrat because he can’t because he respected me for what I did that day.”
He added, “To me it was a normal response but I was called by Mark Zuckerberg the day before on the same subject
Vice President Kamala Harris said Friday she is “honored to be the presumptive Democratic nominee” after she collected enough delegates in online voting to earn the nomination.
“I will officially accept your nomination next week, once the virtual voting process is closed, but I’m happy to know we have enough delegates to secure the nomination,” Harris reportedly told her supporters in a call on Friday.
The deadline for delegates to submit their virtual ballots is Monday, but
Say that five times fast - I dare you.
HAH!
It's been less than two weeks since our sad sack o' carbon president-in-name-only stepped gracefully out of his reelection race and the coronation effort of Kamala Harris as successor began in earnest. In the ensuing days, even as Barack Obama was forced to nod his head in her direction, trapped as he was by POTATUS endorsing her during his exit, Democrats have done their damnedest to begin an immediate and complete remake of a thoroughly vapid, self-absorbed, and unlikable woman.
What's involved in such an undertaking is pretty complex,
Coalitions of minority groups cannot band together to claim that political maps constitute discriminatory gerrymandering, the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals ruled in a Galveston County lawsuit.
The 12-6 decision found that the Voting Rights Act’s protections for individual racial or ethnic groups do not extend to multiple groups joining together to claim that political boundaries dilute their votes. The ruling came in a case in which Black and Latino voters jointly sued Galveston County for voter discrimination after the county dismantled a district where people of color made up the majority.
The ruling reverses decades

Olympic boxing sunk to a new low last week. An Algerian boxer with XY chromosomes – the ordinary definition of “male” – and commensurate male testosterone levels – beat up a woman in front of thousands of cheering spectators.
The woman who was beat up had to quit 46 seconds into the match, apparently with a broken nose. In tears, she said in her native Italian “not fair, not fair” and explained afterward that she’d “never been hit so hard in my life.”
The XY boxer was declared the winner. Yesterday, the XY boxer won again in a decision where all three judges favored the XY boxer in all three rounds
Less than a year after Judicial Watch reported that the Taliban has established fake nonprofits to steal millions of dollars in U.S. aid to Afghanistan, a new investigation reveals that the terrorist group has also received hundreds of millions in development assistance from Uncle Sam because the State Department fails to properly vet award recipients. At least $239 million have likely filled the coffers of the extremists running the Islamic republic since the 2021 U.S. military withdraw, according to a report published this month by the Special Inspector General for Afghanistan Reconstruction (SIGAR). The money was disbursed by State Department
Furious bikers have turned their back on iconic motorcycle maker Harley-Davidson, accusing its CEO of 'going woke.'
The growing movement - spearheaded by conservative influencer Robby Starbuck - cites CEO Jochen Zeitz's support for hardline policies on trans care for kids, critical race theory, climate change and diversity, equity and inclusion efforts.
Starbuck, 35, is now demanding the company drop its CEO - and is rallying motorcycle enthusiasts to his cause at the largest bikers' event in the world, the 84th Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota.
'Bikers @SturgisRally are going to be spreading the word about this,' Starbuck vowed last week, just days before the 10-day event kicked off.
An account of the terrors of working for Vice President Kamala Harris during the days she was a U.S. senator has resurfaced.
Terry McAteer, whose son worked briefly for Harris in a long-ago summer internship, wrote an op-ed for The Union in 2019 when Harris was in the midst of her failed campaign for the Democratic presidential nomination.
This is not exactly a startling revelation.
In 2021, as Harris’s staff was heading for the exit one after the other, Politico wrote a piece describing the vice president’s office as a hotbed of dysfunction.

Kyle Rittenhouse, the conservative campaigner who shot two men during a Black Lives Matter protest nearly four years ago, flip-flopped this week on whether he would be voting for Former President Donald Trump in the November election.
Rittenhouse, 21, took to X on Thursday, to declare his intentions to instead write in former Libertarian presidential nominee Ron Paul, who is not running for president.
“Unfortunately, Donald Trump had bad advisors making him bad on the Second Amendment and that is my issue,” said Rittenhouse. “If you cannot be completely uncompromisable on the Second Amendment I will not vote for you.”

Mossad, Israel’s intelligence agency, hired Iranian security agents to plant explosives in three separate rooms of a building where a Hamas leader was staying, The Telegraph has learned.
The original plan was to assassinate Ismail Haniyeh, the political head of the Palestinian terror group, in May when he attended the funeral of Ebrahim Raisi, Iran’s former president.
Former President Donald Trump’s July 13 rally in Butler, Pennsylvania — where he survived an assassination attempt — was the first time the Secret Service sent a counter-sniper to a Trump event to protect the 45th president, the agency admitted.
“It was the first time Secret Service counter-snipers were deployed to support the former president’s detail,” Secret Service acting director Ronald Rowe revealed during a Friday press briefing.

Second Gentleman Douglass Emhoff, the husband of Vice President Kamala Harris, criticized “toxic masculinity” in an interview with MSNBC’s Jonathan Capehart conducted Tuesday. (snip)
DOUGLAS EMHOFF, SECOND GENTLEMAN OF THE UNITED STATES: "Oof. This is something I have thought about a lot, I’ve spoken about a lot. There’s too much of toxicity — masculine toxicity out there, and we’ve kind of confused what it means to be a man, what it means to be masculine. (snip) I think it’s a problem and I am going to continue to use this platform every time I get to speak out against this toxic masculinity that is out there."
Vice President Kamala Harris refused to accept former President Donald Trump’s invitation to a September 4 debate on Fox News a day after she officially became the 2024 Democratic presidential nominee. Despite declining Trump's invitation, Harris indicated she would debate Trump on one condition: if ABC News hosted the event.
ABC News is historically known for leaning more Democrat, while Fox News, although not always a Trump fan, lean more right.
“Donald Trump is running scared and trying to back out of the debate he already agreed to and running straight to Fox News to bail him out.
