For families struggling to make ends meet, Kamala Harris claims she has a plan to lower energy costs. What she will deliver is more pain. Just ask anyone paying energy bills in a state her party controls. On Harris’ campaign website, she pays lip service to reducing energy costs, but then rattles off a long list of plans to tackle the “climate crisis.” We already know you can’t have one with the other. At a congressional hearing last week, members of the House Budget Committee heard from witnesses about how Biden-Harris policies have fueled today’s energy crisis.

Trump Didn’t Start The Fire

For the second time in as many months, an assassin targeted Donald Trump, and the left blamed … Donald Trump. It’s his violent rhetoric, you see, that is poisoning the body politic and causing everyone to go crazy. Or something like that.
Never mind that the second would-be assassin, Ryan Routh, had written a book in which he called on Iran to assassinate Trump, gave money to Democrats, and posted on X in April using the exact same language Democrats have been pushing for years – “DEMOCRACY is on the ballot and we cannot lose. We cannot afford to fail. The world is counting on us to show the way.”

Voters See Own Party As ‘Undemocratic’:
I&I/TIPP Poll 16 replies
Much of the noise coming from the debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris last week had to do with a media-driven narrative that Harris “won.” Maybe so. In initial polls after the debate, Harris padded her lead. But will the debate win be enough for the Democrats’ own rank-and-file voters, who believe the party used an undemocratic method to select its nominee?
September’s I&I/TIPP Poll suggests the answer is yes. Start with the fact that the Real Clear Politics polling average puts Harris up just 1.7 percentage points nationally, and a sliver-thin 0.2 percentage points in key battleground states.
"President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is coming down in this country.”
That was ABC News’ David Muir “fact checking” Donald Trump during his debate with Kamala Harris.
Two days later, the Bureau of Justice Statistics released the results of its national crime victimization survey, which showed that the number of victims of violent crime was 41% higher in 2023 than in 2020.
There were almost 170,000 more rapes, 300,000 more robberies, 1.4 million more assaults, 300,000 more claims of domestic violence, and almost 400,000 more crimes with a violent weapon.
When Kamala Actually Said Something

Presidential candidate Kamala Harris sat down for an interview late last week. It was the equivalent of a Friday news dump, done when most of the country was to busy otherwise to pay attention. But it did serve a purpose: Her campaign can say she’s done a solo interview, even if she, as is her practice, said nothing of substance.
The interview was with Brian Taff, news anchor at ABC’s Philadelphia affiliate. He asked five questions and the exclusive affair lasted all of 11 minutes.
When the vice president asked if she had “one or two specific things” in mind
What do the climate activists really want? Do they have nothing more in mind than a noble crusade to prevent the burning sky from falling on us? Or is the global warming scare just another piece of the revolution? It’s of course the latter. We know this because they’re constantly telling us it is.
The most recent admission comes from Los Angeles Times environmental reporter Rosanna Xia, whose exhausting essay under the headline “To fix climate anxiety (and also climate change), we first have to fix individualism” was posted on Wednesday – yes, Sept. 11.
Americans of all political stripes seem to agree the country faces a lot of challenges. But whom do voters trust more to deal with these issues? Democratic candidate Kamala Harris, or Republican candidate Donald Trump? The voters spoke, and Trump wins, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
Specifically, in the September I&I/TIPP Poll, 1,386 registered voters were asked this question: “Regardless of whom you support, whom do you trust more on the following issues?”
Voters were given 10 issues of national importance, including “Securing the border,” “Lowering the national debt,” “Improving national security,” “Reducing crime,”
Fifty days after Joe Biden quit his re-election campaign – and one day before she debates Donald Trump — Kamala Harris finally posted an “Issues” page on her website, detailing her plans if she wins the election in November. Now we know why she waited so long.
She calls this “A New Way Forward.” But it’s actually just the Biden plan with a few added wrinkles — which either have been widely panned or were stolen from Donald Trump.
The day after Biden made his announcement, Harris had her own campaign website set up. And it included an “Issues” page, which was a
The Biden-Harris Jobs Con Continues
5 replies
As it has done every month this year, the Biden administration continues to gaslight the public about job growth. Each month, the Bureau of Labor Statistics reports headline-grabbing job-creation numbers, then quietly cuts that number in subsequent months – often by huge amounts.
The latest report is no exception. The headline Friday is that the economy created 142,000 jobs in August – a figure that is close to economists’ expectations and that prompted CNN to cheer “The sky is not falling.”
But buried in the report is the fact that the BLS sharply cut the number of jobs created in both June and July.
The global warming alarmist cabal continues to spin its many yarns and press forward with its propaganda program. Maybe the zealots are becoming desperate because they see the facts aren’t lining up with their hyperbole.
Following the get-’em-while-they’re-young school of thought, the climate agitators are targeting kindergarteners. NASA’s Climate Kids webpage, for instance, says “global warming will affect everyone on Earth.” While admitting that “fossil fuels have changed the course of human history,” NASA also says “these good things come at a cost. The cost is pollution, the destruction of landscapes and natural habitats, oil spills in the ocean, and nasty fracking chemicals in the ground.
In a 19-word post on X this past Sunday, President Joe Biden admitted that he has been lying to the public for years. It didn’t make news, partly because Biden is now irrelevant. But it should. Because Kamala Harris is now repeating the lie.
“Since I took office,” Biden posted, “we’ve recovered all the jobs lost during the pandemic. And added over 6 million more.”
Why Biden, or whoever on his staff was running his X feed, decided to post this on a Sunday is anyone’s guess.
Whatever the reason, it went almost entirely overlooked. We came across it courtesy

We’ve noticed over the last couple of decades a repeating cycle in which finger-wagging scolds tell us that we need to drop some of the conveniences of modernity as sacrifices to Gaia, our Mother Earth. Two examples that have come around more frequently than Halley’s Comet have been the loony broadsides launched against air conditioning and showers.
Now add to that a campaign aimed at refrigeration, because it causes “wide-ranging climate implications.”
Nicola Twilley, author of “Frostbite: How Refrigeration Changed Our Food, Our Planet, and Ourselves,” seems to be on a crusade to reverse the benefits of refrigeration.

Philadelphia continues its spiral into chaos under Democratic leadership, with violent mobs once again taking to the streets, this time attacking police officers and patrol cars in a brazen display of lawlessness.
According to reports from 6 ABC, hundreds of cars and massive crowds participated in illegal car meetups, causing widespread chaos that lasted from 9:30 p.m. Saturday until 4:30 a.m. Sunday.
At least 11 meetups took place, six of which turned into violent confrontations with police. The mayhem resulted in the hospitalization of one officer, while five police cars were heavily damaged.
Joe Biden’s Department of Justice released a ten page pre-trial memorandum in support of a pre-trial detention of would-be Trump assassin Ryan Wesley Routh.[Snip]the Department of Justice posted Routh’s reward letter to anyone who will finish the job and murder President Trump.[Snip] The letter reads in part:
Dear World,This was an assassination attempt on Donald Trump but I am so sorry I failed you. I tried my best and gave all the gumption I could muster. It is up to you now to finish the job. And I will offer $150,00 to whomever can complete the job.

The U.S. is sending additional troops to the Middle East in response to a sharp spike in violence between Israel and Hezbollah forces in Lebanon that has raised the risk of a greater regional war, the Pentagon said Monday.
Pentagon press secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder would provide no details on how many additional forces or what they would be tasked to do. The U.S. currently has about 40,000 troops in the region.
“In light of increased tension in the Middle East and out of an abundance of caution, we are sending a small number of additional U.S. military personnel forward to augment our forces that are already in the region.

Georgia’s Hand-Counted Ballot Rules

The far-left Georgia Senator Raphael Warnock has claimed that rules in Georgia forcing the hand counting of ballots is a subversion of democracy.
In an interview with MSNBC’s Jen Psaki, Warnock made the case that common sense election integrity rules are a ploy by Republicans to steal the momentum from Kamala Harris.
“The news that Georgia voters [ought to be] paying attention to is this, the fact that they are doing this, means that they know we’re winning,” Warnock said.
“They know that the momentum is with Kamala Harris, and this effort to turn the democracy on its head, so that rather than the voters picking their representatives,

Biden Laptop Letter 13 replies
More than 700 members of the Deep State — a mixture of high, medium, and low-ranking government officials and staffers — signed a letter endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday, in a move reminiscent of the letter 51 former intelligence officials signed claiming the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation.
In fact, some of the signatories of the new letter also signed the Hunter Biden laptop letter, such as former Obama CIA Director John Brennan and Air Force Gen. (Ret.) Michael Hayden.Other signatories of the new letter include Trump-haters Alexander Vindman, the former Ukrainian-American National Security Council staffer and retired Army lieutenant colonel who sparked the second impeachment
A federal judge has ruled that it would be unconstitutional for an Indiana prison to deny a transgender inmate sex reassignment surgery following the inmate's lawsuit against the facility. The American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) sued the Indiana Department of Corrections last year on behalf of a transgender inmate, Jonathan C. Richardson, also known as Autumn Cordellionè, who was convicted of strangling his 11-month-old stepdaughter to death in 2001.
Indiana law, however, prohibits the Department of Corrections from using taxpayer dollars to fund sex reassignment surgeries for inmates. However, the ACLU argues in the lawsuit, filed on Aug. 28, 2023, that the law is a violation of the Eighth Amendment’s prohibition
Volodymyr Zelensky has joined the growing list of foreigners campaigning for Kamala Harris.
No doubt the media mavens of the transnational elite will call for immediate impeachment of Harris for her collusion with Zelensky to interfere in our election.
Yeah, right. Sure, it's true that Joe Biden and Kamala Harris have been funneling uncounted billions into Ukraine and that much of that money has been sucked up by corrupt politicians and their buddies, But this is the right sort of corruption, so nobody in the Establishment is bothered by it at all.
Multiple reports on Sunday and Monday indicated, citing unnamed sources, that attempts by the administration of President Joe Biden to end Israel’s self-defense operations against the jihadist terrorist organization Hamas in Gaza have not yielded any significant progress.
Both Israel and Hamas reportedly rejected the latest attempts at a ceasefire deal from the White House, the Times of Israel reported on Sunday, suggesting that the Israeli government politely raised “reservations” with the proposed agreement, while Hamas terror leaders “flatly rejected” the deal. The proposed deal appears to be the result of a visit to Egypt, a core mediator, by Secretary of State Antony Blinken

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen issued a stark warning about the economy and delivered what appeared to be a veiled endorsement with just over forty days to go before the presidential election.
In an op-ed written in the Wall Street Journal, the top economic official signaled the U.S. is on the right economic path and touted the policies implemented in the Biden administration over the last three and a half years. But she also warned the U.S. needs to stay on track.
'Risks remain, but the data suggest that we’re on the path to a soft landing,' Yellen wrote just days after the Federal Reserve announced its largest interest rate cut
Donald Trump outperformed the polls in both 2016 and 2020, shocking the world by beating Hillary Clinton in his first election but losing to Biden in the second. Now, with the race between the former president and Democrat appointee nominee Kamala neck and neck, Democrats and pollsters are worried that he’ll beat the expectations once again—and return to the Oval Office.
Pennsylvania Senator John Fetterman knows that polls don’t tell the whole story:
“Polling has really been seriously damaged since 2016. And that’s one of the truths, is that Trump is going to be tough in Pennsylvania, and that’s absolutely the truth,” Sen. John Fetterman (D-Pa.)
This week, a group of citizens, attorneys, investigators, writers, former elected officials, tech entrepreneurs unveiled a powerful technology platform to even up the fight with Leftist NGOs stealing U.S. elections.
Their site, StopBogusBallots.com is an initiative of Common Sense Elections, a PAC applying quantum speed technology, innovative, successful legal strategies, top flight investigative talent – to exposing mail-ballots from nonsensical addresses BEFORE the votes get counted.
2024 will be decided by mail-in ballots, from 7 swing states, each of which is currently too close to call.

Former Speaker of the House and top Democratic figurehead Nancy Pelosi is under fire after some demonstrably false statements were made — to uproarious approval.
To wit, Pelosi spoke to Semafor on Wednesday, according to The National Desk.
As part of a bigger interview, Pelosi was eventually asked a relevant question: What happened to Pelosi’s prior calls for an open primary after incumbent President Joe Biden stepped down from seeking re-election?
As she was reminded of at the Semafor forum, Pelosi had previously advocated for having an actual primary contest post-Biden.
