Harris would-be Cabinet

Worried about Vice President Kamala Harris potentially facing a Republican-controlled Senate if she wins the White House, two Democratic strategists tell NewsNation senators are discussing an emergency plan to approve her Cabinet during a December Senate session. (Snip) To solve this issue for Democrats, strategists told NewsNation that the most extreme plan is for current Democratic President Joe Biden’s Cabinet to resign during his lame-duck Senate session. Biden would then appoint Harris’ picks, and Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer would then confirm the new Cabinet with his current 51 to 49 Senate. One source, however, conceded that this might not

The Democratic Party needs to get competitive with Republicans in battleground North Carolina to turn out more voters before Election Day, says a former political consultant from the Tar Heel State. (Snip) Mills, who worked on the direct mail team for the Democratic National Committee in 2004, identified two problems that Democrats need to address, quickly, to compete in the state: early voting and low African American voter turnout. "They [Republicans] seem to be on the right track right now. Democrats, on the other hand, need to boost their turnout. I mean, what we don't know is how people are

Former First Lady Michelle Obama hit the campaign trail for Vice President Harris in battleground Michigan on Saturday, blasting former President Trump and railing against what she cast as a double standard in the high-stakes presidential race. “I gotta ask myself: why on earth is this race even close? I lay awake at night wondering: what in the world is going on?” Obama told a raucous rally crowd in Kalamazoo, Mich. (Snip) Her searing remarks against the former president come as the polls show Harris and Trump neck-and-neck as Nov. 5 nears. Polling averages from Decision Desk HQ and The

ST. LOUIS – Less than two weeks away from the November general election, FOX 2 has released the results of our exclusive, new Emerson College/The Hill/Nexstar poll, shedding light on where support for Missouri’s U.S. Senate race stands. (Snip) The new Emerson College Polling/The Hill poll finds that Hawley leads in support among all five candidates. Poll results reveal 50.6% support for Hawley, 40.5% support for Kunce, 1.2% support for Kline, 0.6% support for W.C. Young and 0.2% support for Jared Young. Around 6.8% of poll respondents said they were “undecided” in the Missouri U.S. Senate race. Poll results indicate
The editor of the Los Angeles Times opinion section has resigned from her post after the newspaper’s owner prevented the editorial board from endorsing a candidate for president. Mariel Garza, editor of the illustrious newspaper’s editorials, resigned in protest of the decision by Patrick Soon-Shiong, owner of the Times, to block the editorial staff from endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I am resigning because I want to make it clear that I am not okay with us being silent,” Garza told the Columbia Journalism Review in a phone interview with her former colleague Sewell Chan. “In dangerous times, honest people
Veteran pollster Nate Silver said his “gut” right now is that former President Trump will win the election in less than two weeks, but he cautioned against putting faith in anyone’s gut feeling. Silver wrote in a guest essay published Wednesday by The New York Times that calling the race a 50-50 toss-up is the “only responsible forecast,” with polls showing the race as razor-tight in all seven key battleground states that are likely to determine the outcome. But, the 538 founder added, if people press him to give an answer on who is favored, he will say Trump. “My
AURORA, Colo. — Another retail closure is coming to a troubled intersection on E. Colfax Avenue in Aurora. The Walgreens store at Havana Street and E. Colfax Avenue will close next month. Walmart shuttered its Neighborhood Market store at the same intersection in June. (Snip) The company cited "increased regulatory and reimbursement pressures" as the reason why it's closing the 10501 E. Colfax Avenue location. However, Willmann doesn't believe that's the entire story. "I hate to say this, but I think it’s shoplifting," he said. The Walmart Neighborhood Market across the street has been closed for three months. The company
Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are deadlocked in the latest national NBC News poll, with Trump bolstered by Republicans coming back home to support him after last month’s rough debate and a subsequent polling deficit, as well as by a favorable voter assessment of Trump’s term as president. These are among the findings of a new survey released three weeks before Election Day, which also shows Harris’ popularity declining compared to a month ago, after she got a big summertime boost; a massive gender gap between support for Harris and Trump; and voters viewing abortion as
The drownings of two Navy SEALs during a maritime intercept off the coast of Somalia were preventable, caused by a lack of proper training and unclear guidance on effective flotation, a Navy investigation found. During a night-time intercept of a ship carrying Iranian weapons to Yemen, Chief Special Warfare Operator Christopher Chambers and Naval Special Warfare Operator 1st Class Nathan Ingram fell into heavy seas while trying to board. Chambers, the Leading Petty Officer of the platoon, fell in from the side of the ship, while Ingram jumped into the water immediately to help. Loaded with gear for the intercept
One person was killed and 12 people remain trapped inside a Colorado gold mine after the elevator malfunctioned, causing “a severe danger” during a tour Thursday, sheriff officials said. The elevator inside the Mollie Kathleen Gold Mine — a family-owned business that offers tours to the public — experienced a mechanical issue at 500 feet deep at around noon, Teller County Sheriff Jason Mikesell said during a press conference streamed by FOX21 News. One person died, and four people suffered minor injuries during the elevator issue, he added. Authorities have already rescued 11 people — including two children — from
Over the weekend I wrote about recently hints that the Harris campaign might be in trouble in Michigan, a swing state they need to win next month. One of the issues that has Democrats in the state feeling nervous is the ongoing Israeli-Hamas war. As one Lebanese activist told Reuters, Harris was going to lose a lot of votes over the Biden administration's stance. (Snip) “I personally don’t know anyone who would vote for Harris,” said Imam Hassan Qazwini, who founded the Islamic Institute of America in Dearborn Heights and said that he planned to vote third party this year
The swing state of Pennsylvania’s voter registration system will be closed on the night of former President Donald Trump’s return rally in Butler, the site of the July 13 assassination attempt against him. The Republican nominee announced Sept. 25 that he is holding another rally in Butler on Oct. 5, just three months after a gunman shot the former president at a rally there, wounding him in the ear. “This website will undergo scheduled system maintenance and be unavailable Saturday, October 5th 10 p.m. until October 6th 4 a.m,” the Pennsylvania Voter Registration website says. “We thank you for your

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.
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.
Former first lady Michelle Obama implied that people who don’t support Vice President Kamala Harris for president are sexist and racist, and she questioned if voters were “ready for this moment.”
During a Harris rally in Kalamazoo, Michigan, on Saturday, Obama spoke about how the race between Harris and former President Donald Trump was “too close.” The former first lady added that Harris was “an extraordinary human being” and candidate, and would be an “extraordinary president.”
General Milley’s Attack on the Constitution
22 replies
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.

Rally With Michelle Obama: Being Completely Unhinged 22 replies
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. HARRIS: Should never again (starts yelling) stand behind the seal of the United States! Never again! Never again! Never again!
Vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz and congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez planned to stream themselves playing an American football video game against each other on Sunday as the two Democrats continued their party’s efforts to secure votes from young men just nine days before the White House election.
Walz and Ocasio-Cortez were scheduled to face each other on Twitch platform at 3pm ET in the latest edition of the Madden game after a recent NBC News survey found the Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris had a lead of two percentage points over Donald Trump with young male registered voters.
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.
“Exxon Knew!” The battle cry has inflamed and inspired climate activists for decades. Since the 1970s, they allege, Exxon Knew that human-caused climate change is “real” – but lied about it, claimed there wasn’t a “crisis,” and kept marketing its “planet-killing” fuels and petrochemical feed stocks. Now activists say Exxon Knew for years that very little plastic waste is actually recycled. The oil giant is deceiving regulators and consumers with claims that all plastics are recyclable and its “advanced recycling” processes keep enormous amounts of plastics out of landfills.
ExxonMobil “campaign of deception” demands a lawsuit, says California Attorney General Rob Bonta.

Michelle Obama came out to support Kamala Harris during an event in Kalamazoo, Michigan, on Saturday. She hasn't done much for Harris; she hasn't been out there like her husband. This is her first campaign appearance apart from the DNC in August, and we're almost at the election. She scarcely could have done less. But to be fair, surrogates Barack Obama and Bill Clinton haven't been doing well for Kamala either. They seem to be accidentally throwing her under the bus and stepping in it more than helping her.
Barack basically attacked black men for not being sufficiently supportive of her and suggested they were misogynistic.

Former First Lady Michelle Obama has hit the campaign trail for Vice President Kamala Harris — but critics are panning her 11th-hour sales pitch as “racist” and “sexist” and saying that her words reveal more about her than they do about Harris.
Obama ignored the possibility that Harris — who catapulted to the top of the Democratic ticket on the tidal wave of President Joe Biden’s ouster from the race — was simply a weak and unlikable candidate, and instead argued that the voters were the only possible weak link in the chain. That, she claimed, was the result of racism and sexism in the electorate.
What Sort of Man Votes for Kamala Harris?

The Kamala Harris campaign is deeply worried that it isn’t getting traction among male voters, and is resorting to increasingly desperate — and inexplicable — measures to try to appeal to them. The Trump War Room on Sunday published a video of the Candidate of Joy herself in the midst of her latest attempt to move that particular needle. In yet another cringeworthy staged moment, she is sitting in a bar with fellow a leftist ideologue, Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, in front of largely untouched beers. See, guys? Beer! That means, vote for Harris!
“So, I’ve got to tell you something,” Madame Joy tells her comrade.
As we reported, a Democrat appointee nominee Kamala Harris PAC thought the best thing to do in the final days of the presidential campaign was to drop an ad featuring a dude masturbating. Seriously. They imply that “fascists” will burst into his room to stop him should Trump and other Republicans prevail in the November 5 elections.
The desperation is palpable.
GOP nominee Donald Trump, meanwhile, aired a stirring commercial during the third quarter of the Eagles-Bengals game Sunday and reminded us of why this election is one of the most consequential of our lives. It isn’t about vibes, or “joy,” or Nazis;
