Jon Favreau, a host of the political podcast “Pod Save America,” said during Friday’s episode that President Biden’s internal polling showed that President-elect Trump would win “400 electoral votes.”
“Then we find out when the Biden campaign becomes the Harris campaign, that the Biden campaign’s own internal polling at the time when they were telling us he was the strongest candidate, showed that Donald Trump was going to win 400 electoral votes,” Favreau said on the podcast in comments highlighted by Mediaite.

Out of a sense of morbid curiosity, we decided to venture over to the Bulwark, the opinion site founded by alleged conservative Bill Kristol with the single mission of providing readers a daily dose of anti-Trump vitriol.
We wondered if perhaps the folks at Bulwark were celebrating because Donald Trump’s victory means that their reason for existing just got extended another four years. Had Trump lost, their pretense of being a conservative “bulwark” would have shattered.
They aren’t celebrating.
Instead, Trump’s overwhelming victory against overwhelming odds has them struggling to think straight.

The 2024 landmark election has concluded with a resounding victory for the Grand Old Party. With the newly acquired Republican majority in Congress and Donald Trump as President-elect, the United States is facing a pivotal moment that promises to bring long-awaited changes.
Interference Anxiety
In the months and days leading up to the election, the outcome was far from certain. Polls showed a dead heat between Trump and Harris, with only a marginal difference, and even prominent pundits were unable to predict a winner. Having experienced election interference controversies in 2016 and 2020,

Things are moving quickly after President-elect Donald Trump's win on Tuesday in the general election. One of the issues that voters said was one of the major reasons they pulled the lever in the ballot box for him, and not Vice President Kamala Harris, is immigration. In a piece Thursday, my colleague Ward Clark outlined the agenda items that Trump has promised to tackle on day one of the new administration. Among those, of course, is not only beginning deporting the illegals already in the country but securing the porous southern border with Mexico.

One of the best things about Kamala Harris losing is that now, Tim Walz can slink back to Minnesota and we won't have to deal with him on the national stage into the future. He's truly a hard individual to take, from gesticulations to falsehoods. At Kamala's concession speech on Wednesday, Walz appeared close to crying. In the final analysis, in a campaign full of failure and bad choices, picking Tim Walz may have been one of her worst choices. She didn't choose a guy who was allegedly more moderate like Pennsylvania Governor Josh Shapiro, who might have helped her win PA. She did choose Walz,

Lots of people are sharing this video as if it were just released, but it actually has been on his campaign website for over a year.
That doesn't make it any less interesting, though. I had never seen it, and having been drawn in by the clickbait, it turns out that the video and plan are AWESOME. Who cares if Trump released it today or a year ago? This is what must be done. Donald Trump’s plan to dismantle the Deep State.
1. “Immediately reissue my 2020 executive order, restoring the President's authority to remove rogue bureaucrats.”
2. “Clean out all of the corrupt actors in our national security and intelligence apparatus.

It's a contest between federal might and a state's right as we head into the waning hours of the 2024 election. The Department of Justice announced that it would be sending lawyers out to 86 polling locations in 27 states to monitor them on Tuesday. But some of those states are pushing back, including Missouri, which filed suit against the DOJ on Monday challenging the feds' right to have monitors in place. Missouri Secretary of State Jay Ashcroft on Monday filed a lawsuit against the Justice Department in an attempt to prevent federal officials from monitoring polling locations in St. Louis on Election Day.

It's hard to believe that we're just a few hours away from it officially being Election Day, but yes, we've finally made it to that point.
In North Carolina, there has been a distinct buzz in the air on the Republican/conservative side since early voting started on October 17th, with GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump's push for Republicans to take advantage of early voting spurring early vote numbers for the party not seen in previous election cycles. The difference was pronounced enough that it caused a full-blown panic for the Harris-Walz campaign, which was aware from past elections that early voting has typically been the strong suit for Democrats, not Republicans.

Megyn Kelly appeared at Donald Trump’s campaign rally in Pittsburgh, Pa., on Monday, revealing to the crowd that she’s backing the Republican ex-president because of the Democrats’ handling of illegal immigration and transgender policies.
Kelly listed instances of illegal migrants accused of killing young Americans like Georgia college student Laken Riley, 22, and 12-year-old Texan Jocelyn Nungaray as she blamed Vice President Kamala Harris for opening up the southern border “by choice.”

A Japanese nuclear reactor that restarted last week for the first time in more than 13 years after it had survived a massive 2011 earthquake and tsunami that badly damaged the nearby Fukushima nuclear plant was shut down again Monday due to an equipment problem, its operator said.
The No. 2 reactor at the Onagawa nuclear power plant on Japan’s northern coast was put back online on Oct. 29 and had been expected to start generating power in early November.
But it had to be shut down again five days after its restart due to a glitch that occurred Sunday in a device related to neutron data inside the reactor,

Eight people are going on trial in Paris on terrorism charges Monday over the beheading of teacher Samuel Paty, who was killed by an Islamic extremist after showing caricatures of Islam’s prophet to his middle school students for a lesson on freedom of expression.
Paty’s shocking death left an imprint on France, and several schools are now named after him. Paty was killed outside his school near Paris on Oct. 16, 2020, by an 18-year-old Russian of Chechen origin, who was shot to death by police.

My, how the "girlie man" has fallen.
Arnold Schwarzenegger took to X on Wednesday to make a presidential endorsement and found out in short order that few people cared what he thought. The Hollywood star turned California governor and then deposed, "The New Celebrity Apprentice" host has been officially terminated from whatever remained of the good graces of Donald Trump supporters. The former California governor once gave an uplifting and well-crafted speech about how "I Am a Republican!" at the 2004 Republican National Convention, in which he scolded "girlie men" too timid to stand up for what's right.
Good times.
