The Los Angeles Times announced a few days ago that it would not endorse a presidential candidate this year. That decision apparently was dictated by the paper’s owner, Patrick Soon-Shiong, after an editorial endorsing Kamala Harris had already been drafted. Times editor Mariel Garza resigned in protest

There's nothing honorable about either the LA Times or WAPO. They haven't had a Come to Jesus moment. By not endorsing anyone they are, in fact, endorsing Trump. They know it and we know it- but they're cowards for not saying it outloud..

By trying to destroy us, they have destroyed themselves. This was no minor act of malfeasance. It was attempted murder of American society. Only now, when they have been caught red handed with all possible excuses nullified and they are about to massively lose are they trying to what? Make amends? Say oops? Even now they can't really say "We were wrong. We shouldn't have done what we did". Instead they are simply trying to run from their own mess. The media deserves whatever happens to it. No tears need be shed and no mercy extended. Just let them expire and we can build a replacement that can respect and serve our society and the People.

That's what...... 56 years that I have personally witnessed. And NOW you say you want to 'Reclaim your Honor"? You Defecated in your bed- America and America's people- for over half a century.

'Try' is the most important word in this article. But try to reclaim their honor is ridiculous! The are fighting for their life. And unless they change they are doomed. Thetechnology has passed them by, while they were pandering to the special interests that ARE the source of most if not all of our problems. No Fox. No ther MSM for me. Aggregators like LUcianne and podcastsby peoplewho are trustworthy are the future. It'd chnging so quickly, that its hardto see the forest because we are in the trees.

OMG that is so funny. Newspapers are finished. Their info-delivering technology is obsolete They are uniformly communist propagandists and Bolshevik chaos creators. Maybe they'll be honored in the Pantheon of Dead Maoist sloganeers. Good riddance.

The long political career of Mitch McConnell (R – KY) is winding down in the same manner as previous RINO Senators such as John McCain, Mitt Romney, Jeff Flake, Bob Corker, etc – with betrayal, vendettas, and a repudiation of the conservative base. McConnell, the current Senate Republican Leader is actively trying to defeat incumbent Senate conservatives who are running for re-election, and he is making it clear that his role in his final two years in Congress will be to align with Democrats to thwart President Trump should Trump be elected to a second term.

On the last leg of her African tour, Vice President Kamala Harris paid a visit to an otherwise unremarkable office building in Zambia. Kamala needed a tangible connection to Africa to win over African-American voters and convince them that she was one of them. And everyone settled on the office building as being the next best thing where she had once stayed as a little girl with her Indian mother on a visit to her grandfather. P. V. Gopalan, Kamala’s grandfather, had been a member of India’s socialist Congress party which was aligned with the USSR.

The CEO of a legendary American company steps down after a series of reverses. His company used to dominate its industry, was the leader in innovation, and succeeded so massively that it became an icon of American success. Despite this track record, it had turned to an outsider with a financial background, but no experience in, or passion for, the industry when it hired him. The new CEO focused on cost-cutting and squeezing profits from older products instead of making the investments necessary to invent new ones.
Volkswagen is Halting US Electric Vehicle
Production Until at Least 2025

As the “electric vehicle transition” continues to implode due to an emphatic consumer rejection of EVs, legacy automakers have had to deal with a glut of unsold and unwanted electric cars. Coincidentally, whenever there is a need to suspend EV assembly lines due to the glut of unsold inventory, there always seems to be an accompanying cover story that provides a different reason for halting EV production. Volkswagen is the latest to suspend its EV assembly line here in the US. VW is blaming this all on door handles, not on the collapse in sales of its electric ID.4 car.

Do you plan to vote this November? You’re not alone. Experts say somewhere between 1.5 million and 2.7 million illegal immigrants are likely to cast a ballot in the 2024 elections, “A 2014 academic journal found that 6.4% of noncitizens voted in 2008,” Kerri Toloczko, executive director of Election Integrity Network and senior advisor to the Only Citizens Vote Coalition, told The Washington Stand. “There are about 24 million noncitizens in the U.S. right now. If they voted only at the same rate of 6.4% this year as they did in 2008, they would account for 1.5 million votes.”

"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?" one of those Philosophy 101 questions which many of us have endured as students. But is there still a scandal if the powers that be insist that there is no scandal? Such is the strange place where American spooks find themselves thanks to the unprecedented saga surrounding the so-called Havana Syndrome. Here, the leadership of the Intelligence Community has conspired with the White House and Biden administration to deny and conceal that hostile intelligence services are attacking and crippling Americans
Years of miscalculations by U.S., NATO
led to dire shell shortage in Ukraine

On the frontlines near this old industrial city, soldiers in the trenches say a shortage of an all-important munition – the 155 millimeter artillery shell – has turned the war in Russia’s favor. The causes of the shell crisis began years ago. They are rooted in decisions and miscalculations made by the U.S. military and its NATO allies that occurred well before Russia’s 2022 invasion, a Reuters investigation found. A decade of strategic, funding and production mistakes played a far greater role in the shell shortage than did the recent U.S. congressional delays of aid, Reuters found.

Every day millions of parents put their children under the care of public school teachers, administrators, and support staff. Their trust, however, is frequently broken by predators in authority in what appears to be the largest ongoing sexual abuse scandal in our nation’s history. Given the roughly 50 million students in U.S. K-12 schools each year, the number of students who have been victims of sexual misconduct by school employees is probably in the millions each decade, according to multiple studies. Such numbers would far exceed the high-profile abuse scandals that rocked the Catholic Church and the Boy Scouts.

America’s favorite baker, Jack Phillips of Masterpiece Cakeshop, is back in front of the Colorado supreme court today for yet another round of state-sponsored persecution. The question before the court: Does the First Amendment apply in Colorado, or can the state continue to harass, target, and bully speakers who don’t ascend to the state’s view of cultural issues, in direct contradiction of recent U.S. Supreme Court rulings? That is not hyperbole. The Supreme Court already ruled once that Colorado unconstitutionally targeted Phillips for his religious beliefs. It also ruled a year ago that Colorado law to compel speech violates the First Amendment.

President Biden described the current election cycle as “decency versus lack of decency,” and called former President Trump a “loser” during a campaign stop for Vice President Harris in the swing state of Pennsylvania. “This is the most important election of our lifetime no matter how old or young you are,” Biden told the Pittsburg, Pa. audience members on Saturday. Not a joke, not a hyperbole, not about Democrat or Republican. This is decency versus lack of decency,” Biden declared. “This is about character.” The president added Harris was a “clearer” choice for the position of commander-in-chief. “The choice couldn’t be clearer. The choice couldn’t be more stark,” the president stated.

Americans should prepare for “unrest’ if former President Donald Trump completes the greatest political comeback in modern American politics, Democrats told the Wall Street Journal on Monday. The potential for Democrats to perpetrate political violence undermines their narrative that Republicans, and especially the America First movement, are a threat to democracy. “I think there’ll be some violence. I think there’ll be workplace fights. There’ll be fights at kids’ birthday parties. I think they’ll be protests and will turn violent,” Mark Halperin recently told Tucker Carlson. Resistance groups, according to the Journal’s Joshua Chaffin and Valerie Bauerlein, believe citizens should be “bracing for unrest” if Trump wins:

New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) said she thinks the Madison Square Garden rally former President Trump is hosting Sunday is a “white flag of surrender.” “I think he’s waving the white flag of surrender,” Hochul said Sunday on MSNBC’s “The Weekend.” He’s coming back to a city that he knows well. He’s comfortable here. Maybe he’d like to sleep in his own bed.” Hochul contrasted Trump’s rally with Vice President Harris’s itinerary. She’s campaigning in the critical battleground state of Pennsylvania. Trump will be going to his “known, familiar” environment, but it won’t serve him on the campaign trail, Hochul argued.

Everyone is wondering what will happen on November 5. Will Trump win the election? Or will the Democrats, aided by their Deep State operatives in the FBI and CIA, manage to “fortify” the election once again? This may surprise you, but I think he’ll win—although that’s not the end of the story, and there’s not necessarily a happy ending. Two months ago, I didn’t think Trump would win. I was confident that the same “cabal” of Deep State cronies Time Magazine wrote about in 2021—the secret junta that really rules America—would never allow Trump to win in a fair election.

Vice President Kamala Harris said she would take a cognitive test in response to former president Donald Trump’s insults about her low intelligence, challenging her opponent to do the same. Harris responded to Trump’s Friday remarks in a nearly three-hour interview with podcast king Joe Rogan, in which the GOP nominee called Harris “a very low IQ person” and said she needs to take a cognitive test. “Sure, I would challenge him to take the same one,” Harris said when asked by CBS News anchor Norah O’Donnell over the weekend whether she’d take a cognitive test. “This is what he has resorted to,

Former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, General Mark Milley, recently called Donald Trump a “fascist to the core” and “a wannabe dictator.” That such a senior military leader would feel comfortable saying this about his former boss is remarkable given that similar statements by officers have, in the past, resulted in severe punishment. The U.S. Constitution makes the president—the only democratically elected leader in the chain of command—commander in chief. Military leaders serving under the president owe him both deference and respect, regardless of whether their policy preferences differ.

Vice President Kamala Harris appeared with Michelle Obama on Saturday evening, and things ranged from laughable to psychotic. As RedState reported, the former First Lady ranted and raved about abortion while scolding male voters for not reflexively backing Harris. To say it was tone-deaf would be too kind. I'd instead go with psychotic regarding the following clip. But while Michelle Obama made headlines for being so tone-deaf and demeaning, Harris got noticed for a different reason: She was completely unhinged.
