As Democrats revel in Vice President Harris closing the polling gap against former President Trump, speculation is ramping up over who might serve in a potential Harris Cabinet if she prevails in November. Any Cabinet appointee would likely face a razor-thin Democratic-controlled or GOP-controlled Senate, meaning Harris would have to balance partisan realities with her desire to break the mold with her choices, like naming the first woman to head the Pentagon.“I’m sure it will be very diverse. I think it will be a mix of people who have been around Washington for a while in these kinds of roles because she respects that,

AOC wants to be the Ambassador to Puerto Rico. /s Commie-la's sorority sisters will also be ambassadors. Why? 'Well, as you know, sorority sisters are just like real sisters. I have a sister, She is a special sister. Sorority sisters are special sisters too. It is nice to have sisters.' Ambassadorships will be decided by food preferences. Who likes Chinese food? Korean food? French salad dressing? Japanese food? Mexican food? Italian salad dressing? Russian salad dressing? Haitian 'barbeque'?

Ye gods, what a hacktastic cabinet that would be. It would top Biden's, the worst ever (so far). It's obvious she can't be allowed to ever be in a position to form a cabinet.

She would probably keep most of the ones Biden has since most of them have already destroyed the Agency they were appointed to. Pretty sure Hillary will get a job and Oprah an Ambassadorship, and then there are the usual political payoffs.

It’s election time again and that means it's time for the Democrats' regular pilgrimage to black communities to remind them of our sad state of affairs where racist evildoers -- Republicans of course -- actively work to keep black people down. And the only hope for relief is by voting for Democrats -- who, by the way, have run the country for 12 of the last 16 years. This race-baiting is disgusting but is what even more disgusting is that large portions of the black community buy into it.

The Israeli military said Sunday that it has killed another high-ranking Hezbollah official in an airstrike. The military said Nabil Kaouk, the deputy head of Hezbollah’s Central Council, was killed in an airstrike on Saturday. There was no immediate comment from Hezbollah. Several senior Hezbollah commanders have been killed in Israeli strikes in recent weeks, including the group’s overall leader, Hassan Nasrallah, in Beirut on Friday. The group has also been targeted by a sophisticated attack on its pagers and walkie-talkies, and Israel has carried out waves of airstrikes over the past week across large parts of Lebanon.

Hezbollah Secretary General Hassan Nasrallah, who was killed at his headquarters in a massive Israeli airstrike on Friday, took over the leadership of Hezbollah in 1992 after Hezbollah's original leader, Abbas Musawi, was killed in an Israeli raid. He immediately set out to make Hezbollah ("Party of God) a major player in the Middle East. Nasrallah began by courting the Shiites in Iran. A Shiite cleric, he was able to convince the Iranian leadership to invest in his organization. He had an idea to create a two-track path to power: a military wing to intimidate opponents and a political wing to gain the support of the masses.

Mayor Eric Adams surrendered himself to the feds Friday ahead of a scheduled appearance before a Manhattan federal judge — a day after he was hit with a historic indictment alleging a decade-long pattern of corruption. Hizzoner — who is the first sitting New York City mayor to be indicted — was scheduled to make an initial appearance at the Manhattan federal courthouse at noon on charges he took bribes and illegal campaign contributions from foreign nationals in exchange for favors. He is expected to plead not guilty. A stony-faced Adams gave a thumbs-up but didn’t speak as he emerged from his motorcade and headed into the courthouse just before 9 a.m.

D’Souza spoke with The Daily Signal about the film, offering behind-the-scenes insights from his exclusive interview with former President Donald Trump, which was conducted just days after the July 13 assassination attempt. “I noticed that Trump was somewhat more measured,” D’Souza recalled from their time together in Florida. “He seemed somewhat more reflective in the sense of now seeing his own life as maybe having some sort of a directed purpose.”

Those same organizations [that condemned Israel's exploding pagers] and activists had nothing to say about the Hezbollah rocket attacks on Israeli towns and villages that turned tens of thousands of Jews into refugees in their own country. There is no legitimate way for Israel (or any non-Muslim country) to take out an Islamic terrorist. No amount of warnings, phone calls and dropped leaflets and roof-knocking warning projectiles were enough of a precaution. Even hostage-rescue operations were condemned for killing terrorists who, in the usual Hamas medical department parlance, turned into innocent children.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton criticized former President Donald Trump and stressed her purported innocence in an interview with Margaret Hoover of PBS’ “Firing Line” on Friday. Clinton echoed sentiments that Trump poses a threat to democracy and mocked him for directing his administration to investigate her only to not file any criminal charges. While the Trump administration never formally accused Clinton of breaking the law, Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey in July 2016 said that Clinton had stored 110 emails containing classified information on a private email server, with eight email chains containing top secret information.

A new poll shows that Taylor Swift’s popularity has dropped overall among voters following her endorsement of Kamala Harris this month. Taylor Swift’s overall favorability among all registered voters fell from last year, decreasing from 40 percent in 2023 to 33 percent this year, according to an NBC News poll released Friday. While 16 percent had negative feelings about her in 2023, 27 percent say they do now. About 26 percent of independents have a positive attitude toward Swift, a drop from 34 percent in 2023. The NBC News poll is the latest survey to show that Swift’s endorsement hasn’t had the impact Democrats were hoping for.

VIce President Visits Border, Promises

Today Kamala Harris visited the border in Arizona and proposed a tougher plan to limit illegal immigration. But of course she's also the current Vice President in the administration with one of if not the worst immigration records in US history. She is essentially promising that, if elected, she will clean up her own mess. This really ought to be embarrassing to all involved but she seems to be getting the serious headlines she wanted out of it. Harris’s proposed executive action would build on President Joe Biden’s current policy of essentially closing the U.S. asylum system unless illegal border crossings stay below 1,500 daily crossings

Nasrallah, 64, was in a bunker beneath the group’s main headquarters in Beirut Friday when Israeli warplanes dropped bombs that “leveled six buildings” and took out several Hezbollah honchos in a targeted attack on the longtime terror leader.

Experts, however, have hinted the embrace of touch screens was more cost related than any other factor.
