Vladimir Putin has made a surprising endorsement for who he wants to win the 2024 US election. The Russian president has long been considered friendlier with this year's Republican nominee Donald Trump, with the former president calling Mr Putin a "genius" early in 2022. But speaking at the Eastern Economic Forum in Vladivostok, he said Kamala Harris was Russia's preferred choice for the next US president.

hand count of ballots at Georgia polling places 26 replies
ATLANTA (AP) — Georgia’s secretary of state on Thursday came out against election rule changes pending before the State Election Board, specifically rejecting a proposal to count ballots by hand at polling places on election night. At a meeting in July, the board advanced a proposal that would require three separate poll workers to count ballots at voting precincts on election night to make sure they match the number of ballots recorded by voting machines. That proposal has been posted for public comment and the board is set to vote Monday whether to adopt it.
A Russian court has sentenced amateur ballerina Ksenia Karelina to 12 years in jail for treason for donating $51 (£39) to a charity supporting Ukraine. Karelina, who has American and Russian citizenship, pleaded guilty last week after a trial held behind closed doors.
Ksenia Karelina had been living in Los Angeles and became a US citizen in 2021. She was arrested during a family visit last February in Yekaterinburg, about 1,600km (1,000 miles) east of Moscow.
Kamala Harris’ legislative record is full of diversity initiatives, climate bills, social justice salvos and other left-wing priorities that eventually secured her the title of Congress’ “most liberal” senator of 2019. GovTrack, a website that tracks legislation and votes in Congress, deleted the report card that gave Harris that ranking, however. Harris, who Californians first elected to the Senate in 2016, sponsored a slate of legislation that favored far-left projects during her four years in the Senate.
Democratic Sen. Bob Menendez of New Jersey was convicted of federal corruption and bribery charges on Tuesday, Fox News reported. Menendez, who was indicted on Mar. 5, was convicted by a jury over his involvement in a bribery and corruption scheme with three New Jersey businessmen and the Egyptian government. The indictment was brought forth following an investigation and search of his New Jersey home, where authorities found over $480,000 in cash hidden throughout the property, a luxury vehicle purchased for his wife by the businessmen, and over $100,000 of gold bars, according to the indictment.

In a leaked audio recording posted on social media, New Mexico Democrat Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham can be heard expressing deep frustration with Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas and threatening to send a letter accusing his department of failing to work with her on border security. “For the love of god, put [Border Patrol agents] at the border in Sunland Park where I don’t have a single Border Patrol agent — not one. And people pour over. And so I’m cranky with the Secretary,” Grisham is heard saying in the audio, which was first posted by an anonymous account on X.
Republican Indiana Rep. Jim Banks introduced legislation Friday to defund National Public Radio (NPR). The Daily Caller first obtained a copy of the legislation, which is titled the Defund NPR Act. The bill would cut off any federal funds to NPR.

Fulton County Superior Court Judge Scott McAfee, who is overseeing the case against former President Donald Trump, made a small donation of $150 to Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’ campaign prior to his appointment. McAfee, who was sworn in on Feb. 1, 2023 after being appointed by Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp, made his donation in June 2020 while still working as an assistant U.S. Attorney for the Department of Justice (DOJ), according to financial disclosures. He will soon have to decide whether Willis should be disqualified over allegations that she financially benefited from appointing her romantic partner, Nathan Wade, to work on the Trump case.

When I was a kid, I had a bad temper. I suppose in today’s psychobabble, they would say I had an “anger-management issue” and perhaps they would give me a handicapped parking pass or other special privileges. But back in the day, I was just a kid with a temper.
One summer day when I was about 11, when my parents weren’t home, my brother and sister locked me out of the house for reasons I don’t remember (but they were probably good ones).
A back door to the house was sliding glass.
There will not be a second presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. On Thursday, the former president announced that he wasn't interested in a rematch and then proceeded to slam Harris. When a prizefighter loses a fight, the first words out of his mouth are, “I WANT A REMATCH.” Polls clearly show that I won the Debate against Comrade Kamala Harris, the Democrats’ Radical Left Candidate, on Tuesday night, and she immediately called for a Second Debate. She and Crooked Joe have destroyed our Country, with millions of criminals and mentally deranged people pouring into the USA, totally unchecked

Ohio Governor Mike DeWine (R) is sending law enforcement and millions of dollars to Springfield, Ohio, after residents’ public grievances about the influx of 20,000 Haitian migrants to their community garnered national attention.

Muslims have been threatening boulangeries and restaurants in France, even those owned by non-Muslims, to become strictly halal. That means all pork products must be banned.

[SNIP] After months of pressure and the latest altercation in his bakery in Vénissieux (Lyon), Alexandre Dallery announced on Friday that the boulangerie would stop selling pork products.

of two evils' 22 replies
Pope Francis on Friday slammed both major U.S. presidential candidates as "against life," because of Vice President Kamala Harris's stance on abortion, and former President Donald Trump's stance on immigration, but told Americans to choose the "lesser of two evils."
The pope, who has weighed in on politics as the head of the Catholic Church more than his recent predecessors, did not indicate which candidate was considered the "lesser of two evils." (snip) The pope previously blasted Trump for his immigration policies in the 2016 presidential election, because of his desire to build a border wall. Francis claimed that anyone who did so was "not a Christian."
ABC News anchor Linsey Davis revealed in a post-debate Los Angeles Times puff-piece profile how she, ABC World News Tonight anchor David Muir and ABC producers schemed to ambush President Trump with ‘fact checks’ at Tuesday night’s presidential debate in Philadelphia with Kamala Harris after watching Trump crush and knock Joe Biden out of the race in their June debate. (Photos)
The fact checking at the debate was one-sided, with Trump being interrupted by Muir and Davis several times with ‘fact checks’ while Harris was not ‘fact checked’ once.
ABC News is denying the extraordinary allegations there was collusion between the presidential debate moderators and Vice President Kamala Harris' campaign.
'Absolutely not,' an ABC News spokesperson told the Daily Beast. 'Harris was not given any questions before the debate.'
Former President Donald Trump and his MAGA allies have stoked conspiracy theories that Harris had a leg up in the debate. Most polling showed that Americans believed Harris had the more commanding performance onstage Tuesday night in Philadelphia.
Singer John Legend waded into the boiling migrant crisis unfolding in his hometown of Springfield, Ohio, by telling the town's residents to 'embrace' the 20,000 Haitian migrants whose arrival has sparked a political firestorm.
In a recorded Instagram video from his Beverly Hills mansion, Legend - a staunch Democrat - said: 'So you might imagine there are some challenges with, you know, integrating a new population.
'New language, new culture, new dietary preferences. All kinds of reasons why they might be growing pains'.
White House National Security Council spokesman John Kirby was met with intense criticism Wednesday after he inadvertently emailed a reporter that there is “no use in responding” to veteran concerns about the Harris-Biden administration’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Kirby, 61, apparently intended to send his dismissive response to White House staffers but accidentally hit “reply all” on an email chain that included the Fox News reporter making the inquiry.
“Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe,” read Kirby’s email, according to the outlet.
If you judge Kamala Harris by the one big decision she made so far in her campaign — picking Tim Walz as a running mate — she doesn't fare very well. Walz has largely been a mess, bringing with him a stolen valor scandal and all sorts of prevarications about his life.[Snip] But he put his foot in it big time when he started to tell a story that he said he loved about Kamala Harris.(Video) "As a young prostituter, Kamala Harris talked about going into that courtroom for the first time,"[Snip]… he seemed to swallow hard after that and try to move on, but there was no taking it back.
Former President Donald Trump proposed Thursday during a campaign rally in Tucson, Arizona, to eliminate taxes on overtime pay should he win the election this November.
Trump called for eliminating taxes on overtime wages for workers who work more than 40 hours a week. The former president said removing such taxes would bolster worker incentives and simplify recruitment for businesses.
