House Oversight Committee Chairman Comer
Investigates Zelensky Visit
Posted By: ladydawgfan, 9/25/2024 5:23:55 PM
As we've been covering, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky traveled to Pennsylvania this week on the taxpayer's dime where he hobnobbed with Democratic politicians in the commonwealth and even criticized the Trump-Vance ticket. According to Zelensky, Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) "is too radical." On Wednesday, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) sent a letter to Attorney General Merrick Garland, Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin, and Assistant to the President and White House Counsel Edward Siskel seeking documents about any government resources used for the visit. Concerns about the visit go beyond this week, though.

Former U.S. Ambassador to the European Union Gordon Sondland, who was a witness in former President Donald Trump’s first impeachment, said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that he will vote for Trump because he disagrees with President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris’ policies.
Host Ari Melber said, “Why was it important for you to say no more Trump because of this January 6? Do you stand by that?”
Sondland said, “No. I’ll tell you why. I’ve lived four years under the Biden-Harris policies, and I have to say those policies are not only becoming an existential threat to our country’s way of life but to our allies as well.”
Tim Walz's Self-Implosion Continues During

Tim Walz continued his self-implosion on Wednesday as reporters pressed him on two of his worst moments during his debate against JD Vance.
As RedState reported, Walz struggled throughout the night against Vance, who was far more poised and articulate, never mind having the issues on his side. There was one specific instance where the Minnesota governor was pushed on a falsehood he told about being in Hong Kong for the Tiananmen Square protests. Walz proceeded to melt down on stage, with an especially awkward moment toward the end of the exchange. Here's the video for those that didn't see it.
This election cycle seems to have been going on since "The Munsters" was a primetime hit on television. I've checked and rechecked the calendar and — I kid you not — we are nearing the end of this thing. Given the amount of pro-Harris and anti-Trump B.S. we will have to wade through, these last five weeks may feel like another six months, but the end is truly nigh.
I mean the end of the election cycle, not the end of the world. Maybe.
Between now and November, I'm going to keep pushing back on a lot of the recurring false attacks on Donald Trump
Abon’go Malik Obama believes his half-brother former President Barack Obama is “still running the country” — and would have “a big role to play” if Vice President Kamala Harris wins the 2024 election.
Malik — who was best man at Barack’s wedding but has since parted ways with the 44th president — told The Post that his relative made “everything flip” in July, when he swapped out President Biden for Harris as the Democratic nominee, without a single primary vote being cast.
“Definitely he had something to do with it. … He’s still running the Democratic Party, and he’s still running the country behind closed doors,” he said of his estranged half-brother.
Vice President Kamala Harris returned to her natural habitat over the weekend — Hollywood, where she partied with celebrities and studio executives as millions of Americans elsewhere continued to deal with the deadly devastation wrought by Hurricane Helene.
“Oh, it’s good to be home!” Kamala Harris reportedly exclaimed to the crowd gathered for a Harris-Walz fundraiser at the JW Marriott in downtown Los Angeles on Sunday afternoon.
Her prioritization of Hollywood stars over the millions victims of Hurricane Helene has resulted in a negative news cycle for her campaign. Former President Donald Trump is set to visit storm-ravaged parts of Georgia on Monday and will assist with the distribution of relief aid.
During a friendly interview with the All the Smoke podcast, sitting Vice President Kamala Harris proved she has no idea how a bill becomes a law.
What we have here is another situation where Kamala is interviewed by her own fans and asked puffball questions in the hopes of making her look good and in command. Unfortunately for her, she’s an idiot with no grasp of why she believes what she believes, and your only takeaway from the interview is how dumb and shallow she is.
One of the hosts offered her this layup: “Explain how a bill becomes a law.” What happened next was pure comedy,
I’ve had a lot of jobs. No, seriously, A LOT of jobs. More than 80. I’ve done everything you can imagine, from roofing to being a busboy, from making sandwiches in a deli in an office building to being a press secretary in the United States Senate. I was even a “Merry Maid” for an hour – I filled out the paperwork, watched the training video, realized it was not for me, told the supervisor, and walked out. There isn’t much I haven’t done, and much I did for a very short time (I had an attitude when I was younger). I’ve quit, been fired, and stopped showing up.
Look Who’s Eyeing Eric Adams Mayor Seat

In the wake of New York City Mayor Eric Adams’ (D) indictment, former New York Governor Andrew Cuomo is reportedly already looking to replace him.
Despite being pressured to resign in 2021 from his governor’s seat amid sexual harassment allegations, Cuomo believes he would fare well as the city’s next mayor. He reportedly still has millions of dollars left in his state campaign funds, which technically he can use.
According to the City and State of New York, Cuomo’s campaign has nearly $8 million. Adams’ campaign has only about $3 million in his war chest.
However, transferring to a potential mayoral campaign would be challenging.

Politics has always been a dirty business. As far back as the fall of the Roman Republic, Mark Antony replied to Marcus Tullius Cicero's "Philippics" speeches, in which Cicero called Antony every Latin name in the book, by sending soldiers to kill Cicero. When the soldiers arrived at Cicero's estate, he accepted his fate; the Roman historian Aufidius Bassus tells us Cicero told them.
(Snip) Politics today isn't quite so openly brutal - usually. But on Sunday, we learned that a former political opponent of Representative Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL), William Braddock, is facing charges for allegedly trying to hire a hit squad.

Republican Ohio Senator JD Vance and Democrat Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota are set to face off in a pivotal vice presidential debate Tuesday night, and the stakes couldn’t be higher. With the race between Kamala Harris and Donald Trump seemingly tighter in the polls by the day, this could be one of the most consequential VP candidate face-offs in debate history.
Both face their own issues coming in, but they have one thing in common: neither of them was at the top of the headlines just months ago, before they were chosen. Vance might have been better known, as he has the bestselling book
I admit it: I love silly comedy. To me, Monty Python is as much art as the opera “Madama Butterfly.” (All right, perhaps I exaggerate just a wee bit.) In my mind, “Airplane” is a work of profundity and incitefulness.
Or whatever. In any case, we have brought you the hysterical videos of an internet content creator, “Mr Reagan,” whose AI parodies so triggered California Gov. Gavin Newsom that he signed a law banning such material during election season. The elegantly coiffured guv seems to have forgotten about a little old thing called the First Amendment, and the lawsuits against his silly censorship efforts are already flying in left and right.
After former President Donald Trump, Elon Musk is fast becoming public enemy number one on the left, especially after the billionaire entrepreneur came out in support of Trump in November, warning of the calamity that awaits the nation if Kamal Harris prevails.
And while the left loves to hate Musk, his brilliance continues to bring innovative ideas to life that have the potential to impact society in tremendous ways. Few of these endeavors top the growing possibility of enabling the blind to see — perhaps for the first time in their lives.

In a bizarre post-debate analysis, Politico magazine has looked into the supposed significance of J.D. Vance’s facial hair.
After Vance gave his fellow vice-presidential nominee Tim Walz during Tuesday night’s vice-presidential debate, Politico sought to dissect the candidate’s body language, including their physical features.
The piece, written by body language expert Joe Navarro, explains:
One of the first bits of nonverbal communication to appear in the debate was on JD Vance’s face: his beard. As POLITICO Magazine has noted before, Vance is the first White House wannabe to wear facial hair in 80 years.

Washington— Donald Trump laid the groundwork to try to overturn the 2020 election even before he lost, knowingly pushed false claims of voter fraud and “resorted to crimes” in his failed bid to cling to power, according to a newly unsealed court filing from prosecutors that lays out fresh details from the landmark criminal case against the former president.
The filing from special counsel Jack Smith’s team offers the most comprehensive view to date of what prosecutors intend to prove if the case charging Trump with conspiring to overturn the election reaches trial.
Though a months-long congressional investigation and the indictment itself have chronicled in stark detail Trump’s efforts to undo
Despite his grandson saying he was 'limited' as he turned 100, Jimmy Carter spent his birthday in the sunshine enjoying a military flyover at his Georgia home. Carter - the first American president to reach the century mark - was able to watch a flyover of four F-18 jets and several vintage planes that graced the skies over Plains, Georgia as part of the town's celebrations, per CBS News.
Kamala Harris’s husband, Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff, is credibly accused of physically assaulting a woman in 2012.
Three friends of the alleged victim whom the Daily Mail only identifies with the pseudonym “Jane,” have come forward alleging Emhoff “struck the woman in the face so hard she spun around.” According to the report, Jane and Emhoff, who would’ve been 47-years-old at the time, were “waiting in a valet line late at night after a May 2012 Cannes Film Festival event in France.” According to one of Jane’s three friends, who have all chosen to remain anonymous fearing retaliation (we’ve all seen what the corporate media do to people who hurt
Minnesota Democratic Gov. Tim Walz stunned watchers of Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate as he nervously fidgeted, frowned and even called himself a “knucklehead” — while his Republican counterpart, Sen. JD Vance of Ohio, gave a steady and lawyerly presentation and was widely seen as the victor.
The largely good-natured forum, hosted by CBS News, featured the two candidates agreeing with each other repeatedly and expressing warm personal sentiments — avoiding the blistering personal attacks that were part of both presidential debates earlier this year.
Walz, 60, who has honed a folksy demeanor on the campaign trail, was noticeably nervous and misspoke repeatedly as he wrung his hands, took frantic notes,
I don't know what the viewership numbers were on the vice presidential debate between Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, but if they're not high they should have been because that was one of the best debates I've ever watched in my time as a political junkie (which goes back a looong time).
Vance, as RedState previously reported, wiped the floor not just with Walz but also the CBS News debate moderators, who did what they weren't supposed to do at least twice in "fact-checking" Vance, only to have him refuse to be silenced by fact-checking them right back.

Elon Musk secretly funded a conservative political group in recent years, according to four people familiar with his donations, illustrating quiet financial support for right-wing causes even before the billionaire entrepreneur in July endorsed former President Donald Trump's bid for re-election.
Two of the people familiar with the donations told Reuters that Musk's contributions to the organization, Building America's Future, had started by 2022. One of those people and a third source said the donations amounted to millions of dollars, significantly boosting a group whose advertisements and social media campaigns have criticized the Biden administration and progressive political platforms of the sort that Musk himself has increasingly denounced.
“Mr Nice Guy”, Tim Walz, showed up at the vice-presidential debate in New York and flubbed it. Perhaps he was over-prepared. Or underprepared. Or just too darned “Minnesota nice”, as they say in his home state. Folks there have a reputation for being congenitally kind and polite. Kamala Harris’s running mate could have pummelled JD Vance for being a mean, small-minded, misogynistic flip-flopper whose sole guiding principle was to suck up to Donald Trump. Instead, he came to praise rather than to bury his opponent. Vance couldn’t believe his luck. The Republican vice-presidential nominee was only too pleased to play
Harold Daggett — the union boss who has vowed to “cripple” the US economy if ports don’t ban automation and raise dockworkers’ wages sharply — had a Bentley convertible parked outside his sprawling mansion in New Jersey this week, exclusive photos obtained by The Post reveal.
Photos taken by drone on Tuesday show the British luxury car parked with its top up outside what appears to be a five-car garage that’s connected to his 7,136-square-foot, Tudor-style home by a covered skyway.
The hulking, two-story mansion — located on a 10-acre property in Sparta, a leafy enclave 50 miles west of New York City — encircles a spacious backyard patio
Who Wins When the Longshoremen Go on Strike?

Some things are true — for collectivist communists and individualist capitalists, for all people, regardless of who they are.
For decades now, Americans have been inundated with propaganda that the only entity that cares for them is found in the Democrat party, as collectivism has been promoted as America’s savior and individualism and individual liberty have been castigated as “selfish” and self-serving. But although there is no shame in looking out for one’s own interests, there is plenty of shame in it when you put the entire population and the nation at risk in the process, which is precisely what the International Longshoreman’s Association is doing,
On Wednesday, “CNN Newsroom” host Jim Acosta interrupted Trump campaign senior adviser Corey Lewandowski while discussing immigration and the pronunciation of Vice President Kamala Harris’s name.
Acosta said, “Corey, can you say that Haitian migrants are not eating pets in Springfield?”
Lewandowski said, “You know what I can say, Jim? I can say that 13,099 murderers were let into this country, 16,000 rapes, 425,000 people in the last four years have been let into this country by by Kamala Harris and Joe Biden’s own Customs and Border Protection that are running around this country.”
Former President Donald Trump made his future debate plans crystal clear after Tuesday night’s vice presidential debate.
The erstwhile White House occupant waited until the conclusion of the exchange between his running mate Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) and Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Vice President Kamala Harris’s running mate, to reenforce his earlier statements that he is finished with debates.“Lyin’ Kamala just put out a request for another Debate because they lost so badly tonight,” Trump posted on Truth Social. “Again, it’s like the fighter who lost, gets up and says, “I WANT A REMATCH.” I beat Biden, I then beat her, and I’m not looking to do it again,
