The only daughter of former Republican President Gerald Ford has endorsed Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election.
Susan Ford Bales is a registered Republican and admitted she would 'likely disagree on some policy matters' pushed by the vice president. But ultimately she believed that Harris' 'integrity and commitment to those same principles that guided Dad have led me to conclude' that she should be in the White House over Donald Trump.[snip] Ford was Michigan's only president and was propelled to the White House when Richard Nixon resigned in 1973 in the aftermath of the Watergate scandal.
Taxpayers, not an insurance agency, will pay for the city of Akron's $4.85 million settlement to Jayland Walker's family for Walker's police-involved shooting death, Akron Mayor Shammas Malik.
The city is not insured, so the settlement will come in a series of four payments over four years, he said.
"I imagine that this is something that would have strong feelings, across the board," Malik said of settlement details. "This was something that was done to protect the city's financial interests and to settle the claim."
The lawsuit, filed by Walker's family, initially sought $1 million for each bullet that struck Walker.
Kamala Harris’s campaign is flailing such that even the mainstream media can’t disguise her struggles.
Even her boss seems to have little confidence.
Joe Biden allegedly told Obama that “she” is “not as strong as me” — with Obama agreeing, “That’s true.” If a man who is non compos mentis thinks you are incapable, you are really in trouble.
In a desperate attempt to change the subject, Harris released her medical report, which concludes that she is in “excellent” health and possesses “the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully execute the duties of the presidency.”
The goal was to compel President Trump to release his records.
Several election forecast models have shifted in favor of former President Donald Trump winning the upcoming presidential election over Vice President Kamala Harris.
FiveThirtyEight, polling expert Nate Silver, J.L. Partners, Decision Desk HQ, and the Hill released election forecast results from their models, which found that Trump’s chances of winning the upcoming election were greater than Harris’s. In a Decision Desk HQ/the Hill election forecast, the model found that Trump had a 52 percent chance of winning the election, while Harris held a 42 percent chance of winning the election.

Tucker Carlson invited journalist Mark Halperin on his show to predict what the post-election future could look like for America and was horrified by what he heard.
Halperin, an author of several books about American elections and currently a reporter for Newsmax, told Carlson it may result in a psychological catastrophe across the country if Donald Trump beats Kamala Harris.
'I think it will be the cause of the greatest mental health crisis in the history of the country,' he said, adding that liberals would question their 'connection to the nation' and suffer 'trauma in the workplace.'
New polling of eight battlegrounds shows Donald Trump on the verge of completing a political comeback the cynics said was impossible after the 2020 election.
But he’s not quite there, per the Redfield & Wilton survey of 8,533 likely voters in the octet of battlegrounds, though the state-level data are encouraging.
Trump leads by 3 points in Arizona, 49% to 46%. He’s up by 4 in Florida, 49% to 45%. In Georgia, the ex-prez leads 48% to 47%. Nevada shows another 1-point lead: 47% to 46%. And it’s 48% to 45% for Trump in North Carolina.
This gets him to 268 electoral votes, forcing Kamala Harris to win the blue-wall states.

Donald Trump's Sunday visit to a McDonald's in Pennsylvania continues to cause hurt feelings and fauxrage among the Usual Suspects, some of who have even gone so far as to try and cancel the Feasterville-Trevose location he traveled to, all for the crime of giving the green light for the GOP presidential nominee to work the fry station and greet drive-thru customers.The point behind Trump's visit, of course, was two-fold: 1) It was in a critically important "purple" county in the presidential race (Bucks County), and 2) it spotlighted Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris' unverified claim of having once supposedly worked at a McDonald's.
A town hall event with Vice President Kamala Harris on Monday featured a shocking revelation after one voter simply wondered whether she could ask a question.
Former California First Lady Maria Shriver admitted while hosting the event with former Rep. Liz Cheney in Royal Oak, Michigan that she would only include 'predetermined questions.'
'Are we going to be able to ask a question?' asked a woman in the audience.'You're not, unfortunately we have some predetermined questions,' Shriver replied. 'And hopefully I'll be able to ask some of the questions that might be in your head, I hope so.'
Typically, presidential campaigns allow voters at townhall meetings to ask unscripted questions,
Judges in Michigan and North Carolina separately rejected RNC lawsuits on UOCAVA or overseas voting in US elections.
The RNC in Michigan challenged the rule by Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson that voters who never resided in Michigan could cast their overseas ballot and have it count in Michigan.
The Michigan judge said the lawsuit was an attempt to “disenfranchise” voters.
The North Carolina judge said Republicans “presented no substantial evidence” of the fraud they claimed they were trying to prevent.
Vice President Kamala Harris has been hitting the campaign trail with former Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) lately, with former and potentially future President Donald Trump trolling the former congresswoman, as Katie covered earlier. The "town hall" event that the two did in Michigan further proved how fake the Harris-Walz ticket really is.At the start of the event in Royal Oak, NBC News' Maria Shriver admitted to an attendee that they were "not, unfortunately" going to be able to ask their own questions. She then tried to soften the blow with a bogus response on how the "pre-uh, determined questions, and I'll hopefully be able to ask

I had a professor at Harvard who told an interesting story. He had just published a book, and an article about him and his writings was forthcoming. The relevant publication sent a photographer to get some author snaps. The photographer took many pictures, and when they were finished, she told him they were done. A second later, he heard the camera shoot again. The surprised professor asked what that was. “I always take a picture of my subjects after they think we have finished.
This is one of the most challenging columns I have written. Not only have we experienced unprecedented unconstitutional abuse of government power exercised in response to COVID-19, 2020 election irregularities, and January 6, which has left our country in a state that has more in common with a banana republic than the constitutional republic that has defined us previously for some 230 years. Recent developments suggest that this could be a prelude to worse to come.
As Election Day looms and polls tighten up, a solid majority of Americans remain unhappy with the Democratic Party’s machinations to remove President Joe Biden as its candidate and replace him with Vice President Kamala Harris. And it’s not strictly partisan. Many Democrats are also upset at how the party switched candidates, the latest I&I/TIPP Poll shows.
As Harris continues to struggle, the national online I&I/TIPP Poll of 1,240 registered voters indicates lingering widespread disappointment with the Democratic Party’s maneuvers to get rid of the age-impaired Biden last July.
The poll asked voters whether they agreed or disagreed with the following three statements:
Nature might abhor a vacuum, but empires love them. The busy empire-builders in Tehran have spent the last two decades extending their reach into power vacuums in Iraq and Syria as part of their attempt to recreate at least part of the old Persian Empire that once covered almost the entire Middle East. Funding the Houthi rebels in Yemen keeps the Saudis conveniently distracted, too, as well as giving Tehran a way to attack the shipping that Western economies rely upon.
Hamas and Hezbollah in Gaza and Lebanon respectively are Iran's imperial outposts even further west — and the Arab nations have reportedly had enough.
Former President Donald Trump served McDonald’s French fries two days after the Wall Street Journal published a feature on the Republican nominee’s new crusade to “Make America Healthy Again.”
“Trump Adopts RFK Jr.’s War on Junk Food to Win Over His Fans,” the headline read.
Fast-forward to Sunday, when Trump greeted customers at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s drive-thru and passed out goodie-bags of the industry’s most iconically-addictive “junk food.” Several online X users said the split images reflected an inherent contradiction between Trump’s endorsement of efforts promoting sound nutrition and his championship of the fast food menu.
Just a dozen days ago, The New York Times ran a thoughtful, hard-hitting, unbiased, 100% even-handed article on Kamala Harris: ‘Joy’ Is Working for Harris, but Can It Close the Deal? (That was a follow-up to its previous hard-hitting piece: Harris Used to Worry About Laughing. Now Joy Is Fueling Her Campaign. A few days earlier, another site exclaimed: Kamala Harris is showing that joy can be a strategy. And just a little bit prior to that, New York Magazine declared the dawning of a new, exciting age in American politics: Kamala Harris and the New Politics of Joy!

The mostly defunct discount chain KMart created a cultural icon with its "Blue Light Special." The Blue Light Special was an in-store sales promotion that was available for a short period of time and only during business hours. It was advertised using a rotating blue light and announced over the store's public address system with the phrase "Attention, Kmart shoppers!" The IDF has essentially borrowed this gimmick to get at a large store of Hezbollah money that it can't reach via airstrikes.

The press was hysterical after former President Donald Trump manned the drive-through window at a Pennsylvania McDonald’s Sunday and genuinely looked like he was having a blast.
“I think I might come back and do it again,” Trump said after handing off another bag of fast food. When the next car pulled up, Trump went on to chuckle about being shot in the face this summer when a passenger said, “Thank you for taking a bullet for us.” The Republican presidential nominee walked into the franchise restaurant in Feasterville, Pennsylvania, Sunday “looking for a job.”

President Donald Trump lit it up over the weekend at McDonald's in Bucks County, PA. He worked the fry station and the drive thru window.
It got all kinds of attention and he looked like he was in his element. The left lost their minds over it, which made it extra hilarious.
It showed once again, Trump's natural ability to interact with people as opposed to Kamala Harris' lack of ability. It was a brilliant campaign move and brought epic images including this one.

If there’s a prototypical Kamala Harris voter it might seem to be Charles Johnson, a 23-year-old black college student.
Johnson is informed and politically engaged; he went to hear former President Barack Obama speak Friday at a Democratic campaign rally on the University of Arizona campus.
Yet he isn’t all that impressed with Obama, the nation’s first black president, nor Harris, who would be the second. He says he’s leaning toward voting for Donald Trump.

“No power, no food, no medicine, no running water,” John notes. “So it always goes in a socialist paradise.” That’s Cuba, a model for American leftists from the start, despite a decidedly racist legacy. Cuba’s 800,000 African slaves were more than twice the number in the United States. Cuba did not abolish slavery until 1886 and there was no Cuban equivalent of the historically black colleges in the USA. By some estimates, only one third of Cubans are people of pallor, with two thirds composed of blacks and those of part African ancestry. That profile bears a stark contrast to Cuba’s ruling Communist Party.

Former Georgia special prosecutor Nathan Wade who previously led the Fulton County election-fraud case against Donald Trump lacked critical experience for the job and had to take training sessions on racketeering law, he told a House committee last week.
Wade testified before the House Judiciary Committee behind closed doors and admitted to lacking the experience necessary to be special prosecutor, to the point where he attended a course on the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organizations Act to learn how the law worked.
“Prior to your appointment as special prosecutor, had you ever worked in a district attorney’s office?” Wade was asked, according to a transcript of his testimony. “No,” Wade replied.

Welp, look who's back in the news.
I reported on Friday about the continued decline of Michael Cohen, a one-time personal lawyer of former President Donald Trump. In a nutshell, Trump Derangement has so ravaged Cohen's bitterly obsessed mind that he continues to publicly embarrass himself in absurd — yet hilarious — ways.
For example, as I covered in a Friday article, Cohen appeared on Thursday's episode of MSNBC's “Deadline” to warn that if Trump wins the presidential election, he will do "exactly what he says he will do ... rewrite the Constitution. And he is going to destroy our tripartite system, get rid of the judiciary,
Seven Israeli citizens were arrested last month on suspicion of spying for Iran for as long as two years, carrying out hundreds of tasks at the behest of the Islamic Republic, prosecutors said on Monday.
“This is one of the most severe cases we’ve ever investigated.

The suspects, all residents of Haifa and the north who emigrated from Azerbaijan, include a soldier who deserted
Kamala Harris was offered an opportunity to finally work at a McDonald's restaurant but never responded to the invite, a statement circulating on social media indicates.
A franchisee on X posted what they describe as "an internal statement to the McDonald’s system from the US Senior Leadership Team" regarding Donald Trump's visit to a McDonald’s in Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
They describe the memo as "100% real."
By now, most of our readers know that Trump swapped out his suit jacket over the weekend with an apron and proceeded to work the fryers and the drive-thru section at the fast food restaurant. [Tweet, video]
It was classic Trump.
On Monday on Fox & Friends, former President Donald Trump joined co-host Lawrence Jones for the latest installment of the Barbershop Talk series in the Bronx.
One man asked, “I don’t know what more to do, how can we make the economy come back?”Trump said, “Here is what we’re doing. Number one it will begin with the oil. They screwed around what I did with oil. We were energy independent. You remember back four or five years ago $1.87 for a gallon of gas. We had it lower than that for your car. $1.87 now it’s at 3 1/2, but it was much higher. They brought back my policies
Pretty much everything Donald Trump does triggers the left and their media allies.
That certainly was the case in the aftermath of his visit to a Pennsylvania McDonald's where, as we reported, the GOP presidential nominee seemed in his element while working the fry station and interacting with employees and drive-thru customers.
Indeed, wahmbulances have been on standby for the Usual Suspects who, among other things, have suggested this whole thing, which appeared to go over well, was no big deal because presidential candidates "frying food" for the cameras was not a new thing, although we're hard-pressed to find another example in modern history
In her stump speeches around the country since accepting her party’s nomination, Kamala Harris has invoked the three tenets of the far left’s gun control platform again and again – bans, red flag laws, and “universal” background checks. But since her September 10th debate with Donald Trump, Harris has struck a different note, emphasizing again and again that she owns a gun. But Americans should not be taken in by Kamala’s willingness to take on any persona – including “pistol-packing Momala” – to mislead voters into thinking she’s a moderate in a cheap ploy to win in November.
Former Fulton County special prosecutor Nathan Wade met with Biden administration staff on at least two occasions during District Attorney Fani Willis' probe into former President Donald Trump, a newly released transcript suggests. Wade was interviewed by House Judiciary Committee staff last week as part of Chairman Jim Jordan's probe into the prosecutions of the former president.
A grand jury indicted Trump and allies last year on charges related to alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia.
Wade did not disclose the details of his supposed meetings with White House representatives

MSNBC and its left-wing media ilk are melting down faster than a McFlurry in August after Donald Trump strapped on an apron behind the counter of a Pennsylvania McDonald’s over the weekend.
The outlets blasted the former president’s lighthearted campaign appearance in the key 2024 battleground as a “stunt” and “bizarre” while questioning his mental faculties and even critiquing his french fry-salting technique — only to futilely try to battle back against thousands of online critics roasting them over the lame attacks.

Far-left Politico, a blog dedicated to disinformation and lies, is no longer hiding its desire to see former President Donald Trump assassinated.

The Hezbollah terrorist organization receives funding in various ways, both overt and covert. Iran, Hezbollah's main patron, plays a significant role in financing the terror group. According to reports, Iran delivers hundreds of thousands of dollars to Hezbollah annually and also supplies it with weapons. Hezbollah, however, doesn't rely solely on Tehran. The organization has realized the need to diversify its funding sources for various reasons, including U.S. sanctions on Iran. It has done so successfully, mainly via money laundering, arms trading, drugs and tobacco.
Democrats publicly said that Trump was goaded into the June debate. Biden issued an “anytime, anywhere” challenge to Trump, and did so while Trump was on trial in New York. Joe said, “I understand you’re free on Wednesday,” which was an insult line written for him. Trump’s trial had an off day on Wednesday. The challenge was best remembered for multiple cuts. Apparently, it took Biden five takes (edits) to get a 14-second challenge. But he got it right. Sort of. [Tweet, video]

The trip to McDonald’s in Bucks County, where the former president made French fries and served customers, is causing the Left to melt down, and it’s over the dumbest reason. The man was shot in July, with another lunatic waiting to take shots at him as he golfed in West Palm Beach, Florida, in September. Was anyone expecting unvetted drive-thru customers to grab food from Trump where a crazy person could open fire at point-blank range? It's a stunt, they say. Oh man, when Democrats do it, it's a campaign stop, but when we do it better, it's a "stunt."
Betteridge's Law of Headlines asser that "Any headline that ends in a question mark can be answered by the word no," but there are exceptions.
This story might just be one of those exceptions.
As the entire world knows by now, Donald Trump spent a little time this weekend "working" at a McDonald's drive-thru in Feasterville-Trevose, Pennsylvania. It was a campaign event, so of course it was staged, but the Left's outrage — I'm not even sure it's feigned — told you everything you need to know about how effective it was to see a billionaire former/future POTUS appearing so cheerful and confident working the crowd and the fryer.

We’re about two weeks out from what may be the most important election of our lifetime. It always seems to be the most important election of our lifetime, which is a real problem. Frankly, elections shouldn’t be that big a deal. They should be important. They should matter. But they should not be an existential crisis. Look back to 1996 when you had Bill Clinton running for reelection against legit war hero Bob Dole. We had that election, and nothing much changed. But pretty much ever since, it’s been crisis after crisis. It’s always the most important election because the left wants to lead America into a communist nightmare

Whenever words or phrases appear out of the blue and achieve rapid currency—think “disinformation”—they’re almost always top-down attempts at mind control or mental conditioning. In sneaky fashion, a new phrase can be just a tweak of a former phrase yet the tweak will shift one’s mindset. For example, people used to have medical insurance for medical care—insurance to cover unexpected and high medical bills in case someone got seriously sick. A few decades ago, however, the term became health care. This slight change had huge implications: instead of people seeing a doctor to treat illness, people began to accept the notion of seeing a doctor to maintain health.

Kamala Harris has been trying to push the fiction that former President Donald Trump is "exhausted.'
I think it's her attacks and her campaign that are exhausted. If you look at Trump's campaign not only does it have the momentum in the polls, it has the momentum in creativity, energy, and, well, joy. He seems to be having fun, and so are all the people supporting him.
We saw him turn a troll into a hilarious campaign event at a McDonald's, as well as making something of a comment on serving the people and recognizing workers.
But the Trump energy was lighting up around Pennsylvania.

CBS has been caught producing, via editorial manipulation, two entirely different responses to the same question.
Everyone has been asking CBS to just simply release the full transcript. CBS has refused. The assumption is now about the manipulative content of the broadcast being so extreme that to release a transcript would be even worse than what is already known. The FCC complaint is simple and accurate, which is likely why CBS has never attempted to defend itself, until today.
Kamala Harris and Tim Walz have a Pennsylvania problem.
Harris, her team, and national Democrats finally know it. But does their knowledge come too late? And can they fix it?
With his disastrous debate performance in June, Joe Biden showed the nation that he was old, floundering, and not up to the job. Polls confirmed it. National Democrats, including Nancy Pelosi and Barack Obama, along with Team Harris, sprang into action.
Something had to be done. The “Democratic Politburo” decided – on behalf of 75 million Democratic voters – what the party’s best option was. Out with “Uncle Joe,” and in with the new and improved product: Kamala Harris.
I wouldn’t be much of a political pundit if I weren’t willing to share my prediction for what will happen in 15 days when one of the most important presidential elections in history is decided.
So here goes: Donald Trump will win, and he will win convincingly. But that doesn’t mean the progressive left won’t have a meltdown. Just as in 2016, when Trump was first elected president, the media will be dismayed, the Democrats will be shocked, and there will be protests in the streets, possibly violent. Congressional Democrats such as Jamie Raskin will try to prevent Trump from being sworn in by declaring him an insurrectionist.
