A Chinese citizen was arrested this week after police said he repeatedly tried to get into former President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago Club in Palm Beach while he claimed that he had documents that tie his home country's government to the July 13 assassination attempt on the Republican nominee for president. Zijie Li, 38, of El Monte, California, faces a misdemeanor trespassing charge in the incident, which occurred Wednesday, and remained at the Palm Beach County Jail on Thursday morning on a $3,000 bond, according to court records. According to jail records, this is the first security-related arrest at Mar-a-Lago since July 13, when a gunman shot at Trump as he spoke

Nixon got boned
8 replies
Friday marks the 50th anniversary of one of the darkest days in American politics — the day when the FBI and the rest of the deep state overthrew the duly elected government of President Nixon by forcing him to resign in a scandal designed by teh FBI and promoted by the Washington Post.
The cover up was worse then the crime, because there really was no crime. Thus in less than two years, the deep state overturned the biggest Electoral College victory in 152 years.
Nixon’s 520-17 win in 1972 was bested only by James Monroe and George Washington; both were unanimous choices although one of Monroe’s electors in the Electoral College
Japanese stocks plunged on Aug. 5 in their biggest drop ever, amid concerns about the global economy and fresh forecasts of a possible recession.
The Nikkei 225, a stock market index for the Tokyo Stock Exchange, shed 12.4 percent on Aug. 5, losing 4,451 points. During the 1987 Black Monday sell-off, the index lost 3,836.48 points, which was the worst previous decline.
The Nikkei share average drop comes as the dismal Aug. 2 jobs data in the United States heightened worries of a possible recession, and as the yen rallied to seven-month highs versus the dollar.
Perhaps the most instructive faux pas during the controversial Olympics opening ceremony in Paris on 26 July was the moment when the South Korean team was incorrectly labeled as the North Korean team instead.
You can see how the confusion may have arisen. Not so long ago, we Western democracies mocked Pyongyang’s interminable public-theater displays of regimented, all-singing, all-dancing political conformity in their stadiums prior to sporting events as an unmistakable diagnostic sign of state-mandated ideological totalitarianism. Now we have the precise same thing ourselves, but ineptly disguised by placatory bromides like “diversity,” “tolerance,” and “inclusion.”

Michigan Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson is encouraging residents to report so-called “misinformation” from their neighbors ahead of November’s election.
“Misinformation about the election process, voter rights, or even an issue on the ballot is a serious threat to election security,” reads an online document from Benson’s office. “If you see misleading or inaccurate information regarding voting or elections in Michigan, please report it.”
The document requests residents email reports of election “misinformation” – with “an image if possible” – to misinformation@michigan.gov.
Tropical Storm Debby is anticipated to intensify quickly now and will likely impact the “big bend” of Florida area as a hurricane. The good news is that Debby is moving fast (13 mph) and getting faster. Less time for the buzzsaw is a good thing, regardless of intensity.
(snip)Remember, you are in control right now, not Debby. She takes control tomorrow. There is no need for panic or dark imaginings. Calm, prudent preparations should be taken if you are in the zone of uncertainty. A lot of change in impact zone can happen quickly with these northerly moving storms.

Gee whiz, how soon they forget, and how the headlines change quicker than a pole dancer’s favors from a sucker tossing twenty-dollar bills to the one with the C-notes. I am referring to last week’s captions about Biden’s mumbling and rambling, the creepy whispering, the misnomers and forgetfulness, the whole hullabaloo that had nothing to do with Biden being unable to perform his duties, but whether he was able to beat the enemy of mankind, Donald J. Trump.
It all changed quicker than you can say John Wilkes Booth, Oswald, or Crooks, for that matter. Until last Saturday it was a modern Hitler who threatened our way of life,

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.

Reelection Bid By 370 Votes, Recount Confirms 7 replies
A Thursday recount by Virginia officials determined that House Freedom Caucus Chair Bob Good narrowly lost his reelection bid to former state Sen. John McGuire during the commonwealth’s recent primary elections.
The final results from the Good-requested recount confirmed McGuire won the battle to become the GOP nominee for Virginia’s 5th Congressional District by 370 votes. That’s four votes fewer than the 374 vote-lead McGuire had following the state’s initial tally of the June 18 race. The former state senator will now face Democrat Gloria Witt this November.

Another day, another bundle of noncitizen voter registrations discovered on state voting rolls. But there’s still nothing to see here — so say the left and their election integrity-denying accomplices in corporate media.
On Thursday, Ohio Secretary of State Frank LaRose announced he was directing local elections officials to remove nearly 500 foreign national registrations from Ohio’s voter rolls. The suspected illegal registrations were detected as part of a statewide audit of Ohio’s voter registration database.
The U.S. economy created fewer jobs than expected while the unemployment rate increased, signaling that the labor market could be going through a rapid deceleration at a time when the Federal Reserve could soon be cutting interest rates.
According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), there were 114,000 new jobs in July, down from 179,000 in June. This fell short of the consensus estimate of 175,000.
The unemployment rate rose to 4.3 percent, up from 4.1 percent, and higher than economists’ expectations of 4.1 percent. This represents the highest jobless rate since October 2021.

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."
A packed roster of Hollywood comedians will hold a virtual fundraiser for Kamala Harris next week, the latest effort by entertainment industry elites to stuff Kamala’s coffers with hard cash.

Chelsea Clinton is aspiring to take up an ambassadorship if Kamala Harris claims the presidency come November, sources confided to the New York Post, with the UK seen as the first choice in her diplomatic ambitions.
“Chelsea really wants to be the ambassador to the UK,” said a Clinton source cited by the outlet. “There’s a reason why Bill and Hillary came out in the first five minutes to support Kamala’s presidential bid — they were currying favor.”The source said the Clintons have been “working on this idea for a long time” and would like to see her accepted by The Court of St James’s.
On January 27, 1967, a freak accident during a routine test killed astronauts Gus Grissom, Ed White, and Roger Chaffee. At the conclusion of the investigation, fellow astronaut Frank Borman testified to Congress that his friends were killed by a “failure of imagination.” As he said, nobody -- including himself -- imagined that a test of the capsule, performed on the ground, could be so catastrophic.
We heard the “failure of imagination” phrase again last week, when acting Secret Service director Ronald Rowe testified about the assassination attempt on former President Donld Trump. He said that the Secret Service’s performance on July 13th amounted to

US President Joe Biden is set to meet his national security team on Monday to discuss “developments in the Middle East”, the White House has said, as the US deploys extra fighter jets and warships to the region amid growing fears of an Iranian attack on Israel.
Regional tensions have increased after the assassination last week of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran a day after an Israeli strike in Beirut killed Fuad Shukur, a senior military commander from the Lebanese group Hezbollah. Both groups are backed by Iran, which has sworn revenge.
Biden will also speak to Jordan’s King Abdullah II, the White House said,
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.
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
If you've been on social media this past week, there's a good chance you've come across a video that has gone viral showing Kamala Harris answering a question about how she will fix inflation. Trust me when I tell you that it is hilarious.
"What else are you going to do to fix this problem with inflation?" a reporter asks her in the clip.
"Well, let’s start with this," Kamala began. "Uhh.. prices have gone up. And families and individuals are dealing with the realities of — that bread costs more, that gas costs more. And we have to understand what that means. That’s about the cost of living going up,

The liberal media wants to make Donald Trump’s comments about Kamala Harris’ race a significant point as we enter the final months of the 2024 election. It’s a tacit acknowledgment that the Democratic Party is underwater with groups that usually vote overwhelmingly for them in elections. They need something to jolt the base—and this subject matter could do it. That’s why I’m admittedly nervous: personal attacks on Kamala do nothing but energize liberals. Trump said that Kamala carried herself as Indian before becoming black after her national profile increased at last
