Tim Walz Keeps Lying

For Tim Walz, in vitro fertilization (IVF) is a deeply personal issue—or at least he made it seem that way. In several recent interviews, the Minnesota governor and Democratic vice presidential candidate implied or outright suggested that his own two children were conceived using IVF.

One problem: It’s not true. Walz’s children were conceived using intrauterine insemination (IUI), not IVF. These are two very different things, and the policy conversations about them are fundamentally distinct; many religious conservatives want to prohibit IVF—which can result in the destruction of unused fertilized embryos outside the womb—but not IUI.

Yet Walz tried to link his own personal experience with potential efforts by Republicans to ban IVF. This is misleading, since he and his wife used IUI, not IVF.

It was an oft-repeated error. On Facebook, Walz wrote that his family had taken advantage of reproductive health care options like IVF, which is true enough. But then he told the Pod Save America podcast that his two kids were born “that way,” in reference to IVF. Worse still, on MSNBC, he flatly stated: “Thank God for IVF, my wife and I have two beautiful children.”

CNN ‘Journalist’ Dragged For Fact Checking JD Vance’s Joke About Tim Walz

Earlier this week, JD Vance cracked a joke about Democrats holding their convention in Chicago so that Tim Walz would be able to say he’s been in a war zone.

Hilariously, a CNN reporter took the comment at face value and ‘fact checked’ it as wrong.

She did a journalism. Hard hitting research.

55 to 60 Arrested During Violent DNC Protests: Chicago Police

Nighttime protests outside the Israeli consulate in Chicago on Aug. 20 led to between 55 and 60 arrests, according to Superintendent Larry Snelling of the Chicago Police Department.

He said exact figures would be provided at a later time.

“Last night was a danger to our city and a danger to our citizens,” Snelling told reporters during a news conference on Aug. 21, more than half a day after violence broke out west of the United Center during the Democratic National Convention.

The Epoch Times witnessed multiple arrests as pro-Palestinian demonstrators, many with their faces obscured, physically clashed with law enforcement on Madison Street.

Snelling told the media that those apprehended on the scene included three journalists.

“We need you guys to step to the side,” he said, recommending that reporters keep at least two arm’s-length distance between themselves and officers to maintain what he described as a “reactionary gap.”

Harris -Walz are oblivious that the U.S. economy CAN NOT exist without crude oil.

“Renewables” such as wind turbines and solar panels ONLY exist to generate occasional electricity under favorable weather conditions, as they CANNOT make tires, toilet paper, iPhones, or any products or transportation fuels to support lifestyles and economies around the world!

Neither VP Kamala Harris nor Minnesota Governor Tim Walz are cognizant that all the parts of spacecrafts, EV’s, and for more than 50,000 merchant ships, more than 20,000 commercial aircraft  more than  50,000 military aircraft , 23,000 private planes, and 33 million pleasure boats are made from the products based on derivatives manufactured from crude oil.

In addition, all those merchant ships, commercial and military aircraft, private planes, and pleasure boats, use transportation fuels manufactured from crude oil. 

FURTHER, everything that NEEDS electricity to function, like iPhones, iPads, TV’s, computers, data centers, and X-Ray machines are made from the oil derivatives manufactured from raw crude oil.

It’s shocking that neither Harris nor Walz comprehend that electricity was developed AFTER the discovery of crude oil. Without the parts and components to be able to generate electricity such as insulation, copper wiring, computers, control panels, and air conditioning, there would be no electricity from any of the six methods used to generate electricity such as coal, natural gas, nuclear, hydro, wind, and solar.

Amazingly, neither Harris nor Walz have enough Energy Literacy to direct policymakers to write energy policies!

Policymakers have no comprehension that crude oil is virtually never used to generate electricity, but when manufactured into those petrochemicals that are the basis of more than 6,000 products, is the basis for virtually all the products that support Hospitals, Medical equipment, Appliances, Electronics, Telecommunications, Heating and Ventilating, and Communications systems.

Trump Announces Reinstatement of Discharged Military Members Over Unconstitutional COVID Mandate — Promises Full Back Pay and Formal Apology from U.S. Government

President Donald Trump made a triumphant return to the campaign trail in Asheboro, North Carolina, holding his first outdoor rally since the assassination attempt against him one month ago.

With a crowd of thousands cheering him on, Trump, alongside Senator JD Vance, laid out their vision for restoring America’s global standing after the disastrous Harris-Biden regime.

Some of the highlights from the rally:

  • Saluting Local Law Enforcement: President Trump took a moment to honor local sheriffs on stage, stating, “You are the reason that we’re able to be here and have a safe state — and a great state.” His appreciation for law enforcement resonated deeply with attendees.
  • Compassion in Action: Trump comforted a member of the crowd who suffered a medical emergency.
  • A Record of Success: Reflecting on his first term, Trump reminded supporters of his administration’s significant foreign policy achievements: “We defeated ISIS, we killed the world’s top terrorists, we secured our borders, we achieved Energy Independence, we stood up to China, we protected Israel, we made peace in the Middle East … and we didn’t start wars.”
  • Critique of Afghanistan Withdrawal: Trump lamented the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan under the current administration: “Under my leadership, we were getting out of Afghanistan — but we were going to get out with dignity, pride, and with strength.” He emphasized that during his tenure, no American service members were lost in combat in Afghanistan for 18 months.
  • Restoring Peace Through Strength: Looking ahead to a potential second term, Trump pledged to restore America’s strength immediately after taking office: “Starting the moment I lift my hand from the Bible after taking the oath of office, I will move to restore America to maximum strength and return the world to peace.”
  • Border Security Accountability: Senator Vance did not hold back in his criticism of Vice President Kamala Harris’s handling of border security: “As Border Czar, Kamala Harris has allowed a literal invasion of this country … If we give Kamala Harris a promotion and make her the president of the United States, the southern border is going to look like Walmart on Black Friday.”
  • The Stakes of This Election: Vance encapsulated the choice facing voters: “Let’s be honest, folks: mean tweets and world peace has a pretty nice ring to it — and I think we ought to bring it back.”

Also, during the rally, President Trump announced that all military members discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine mandate would be reinstated with full back pay and apology from the government.

Hypocrite Alert: Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar Praises Kamala Harris as ‘Tough on the Border’ at DNC, Yet Demanded Biden and Harris Fix Border Crisis in Resurfaced 2022 Video

Democrat Bexar County Sheriff Javier Salazar took the stage at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Wednesday, delivering a speech that seemed more fantasy than reality.

Salazar not only attacked former President Trump, blaming him for Texas’s immigration crisis, but also heaped praise on Kamala Harris, hailing her as “tough on the border.”

“When Donald Trump comes down to Texas and stands next to officers in uniforms just like mine, he’s not there to help us. Don’t think that—not for a second. He is a self-serving man. I mean, look, just like when he killed the border bill, he just made our jobs harder.”

“Now, Kamala, on the other hand, has been fighting border crime for years. She’s gone down to Mexico and worked to stop the traffickers. When the traffickers didn’t stop, she put them in jail.”

“Now, down in my neck of the woods, we call that fooling around and finding out. I may be paraphrasing a bit. We protect them. Now, the border sheriffs that I know and I, we’re like Kamala. We protect and serve. We enforce the law, we show compassion, and we fight like hell to protect our border. Because as we’ve always known in Texas: When we fight, we win.”

Kamala Harris’s updated truly lousy jobs report and stock market hysteria, today

Really, we just need to alert readers to this “development” (not really) yesterday and overnight, from Bloomberg:

Fed Confronts Up to a Million US Jobs Vanishing in Revision

US job growth in the year through March was likely far less robust than initially estimated, which risks fueling concerns that the Federal Reserve is falling further behind the curve to lower interest rates. 

Goldman Sachs Group Inc. and Wells Fargo & Co. economists expect the government’s preliminary benchmark revisions on Wednesday to show payrolls growth in the year through March was at least 600,000 weaker than currently estimated — about 50,000 a month.

So that’s Bloomberg this morning. We’d like to know which “economists” are downplaying the Biden-Harris feints from labor on what our jobs are doing, and where they are going.

We already know that any “gains” in jobs, for years now, has been because of part-time hires, federal hires, and illegal migrant hires. The Labor Department is not forthcoming on these realities, either.

The Business Times offers this analysis vis-à-vis implications for any change in interest rates precipitated by a more honest picture:

US JOB growth in the year through March was likely far less robust than initially estimated, which risks fueling concerns that the Federal Reserve is falling further behind the curve to lower interest rates.

Goldman Sachs Group and Wells Fargo economists expect the government’s preliminary benchmark revisions on Wednesday (Aug 21) to show payrolls growth in the year through March was at least 600,000 weaker than currently estimated – about 50,000 a month.

While JPMorgan Chase forecasters see a decline of about 360,000, Goldman Sachs indicates it could be as large as a million.

Have our federal information minders dropped the ball, or has Kamala forgotten to take care of her fraudulent economic/finance picture? Here’s more:

‘A large negative revision would indicate that the strength of hiring was already fading before this past April,’ Wells Fargo economists Sarah House and Aubrey Woessner said in a note last week. That would make ‘risks to the full employment side of the Fed’s dual mandate more salient amid widespread softening in other labor market data.’

However, Kamala may not need to overly worry, as we won’t have anything close to the truth until after the election:

The government’s preliminary benchmark projection will be followed by final revisions that are incorporated into the January employment report to be released in February.

That’s February 2025, folks. If Trump is in by then, he’ll be fixing it. If Kamala’s the man, she won’t notice it anyway.

Kamala Harris is coming for your house

If you thought Kamala Harris’s price controls scheme was straight out of the Book of Nicolás Maduro, wait till you see what she has in stores with her proposal for a 25% tax on unrealized capital gains.

According to Americans for Tax Reform:

The Harris-endorsed budget calls for an annual 25 percent minimum tax on the unrealized gains of individuals with income and assets that exceeding $100 million. Once in place, it won’t be long before the threshold is lowered to hit more and more Americans.

Americans overwhelmingly oppose taxes on unrealized gains, by a factor of three to one, including 76% of independents. Americans know that a “gain” isn’t “real” until it is actually realized, in hand.

What that means is that if you bought a house for $60,000 in the 1970s, and saw its value go up to $1,000,000 on Zillow last year (which isn’t uncommon in places like California), you’d be on the hook for taxes on a million-dollar property, which would be more than you actually paid for the house, even though it’s the same ordinary house you bought in a middle-class neighborhood back in the ’70s and you haven’t changed residences.

The same could be said of any homeowner, you’d buy a house for $300,000, but as its value rises to $1.2 million, your tax bill would clock in for a $1.2 million property, and not the $300,000 tract home you bought a few years earlier. If the market value went down by the time you sold, to say, $250,000, you will have spent tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars on taxes while actually earning just $250,000 on your investment.

The same could be said of stocks, or crypto, or any asset, it’s not just homes. You’ll pay the huge taxes, but if the price goes down, as it inevitably will on some assets, you’ll have gotten nothing but the huge tax bill already paid.

DNC Maggots: FBI Investigates the Gross Breakfast Discovery

The FBI is investigating a potential sabotage at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago after maggots were allegedly slipped into the hotel breakfast being served to delegates.

Law enforcement agencies suggest activists likely brought the maggots into the hotel to make a statement, while city officials released a statement addressing the delegate breakfast dilemma.

“Multiple unknown female offenders are alleged to have entered a building (200 block of North Columbus Drive) and began placing unknown objects onto tables containing food. The offenders are believed to have then left the area. One victim was treated and released on-scene. Along with CPD, FBI-Chicago is assisting in the investigation. No further information is available at this time.”

It’s unclear if the contamination was found before any delegates ate the food.

Delegates expressed concern over the maggot incident while Chicago police officers and Illinois state troopers gathered in the lobby of the Fairmont Hotel near the meeting rooms.

“They protected us, of course, and turned it around in minutes,” said Indiana delegate Tracy Boyd, who is at the convention representing the Indianapolis region. She said her group was notified that breakfast service would be briefly delayed due to the incident.

PAY ATTENTION: Democrats Just Revealed How They Will Steal the 2024 Election — In Three Easy Steps

Pay Attention.

In 2020 President Trump won more votes than any sitting president in US history.

Trump increased his vote totals by 12 million votes in 2020 over his first presidential victory in 2016.

Trump won 16 of 17 bellwether counties and allegedly lost the election. Something that had never happened in 36 years.

Trump won the bellwether states, Ohio, Florida, and Iowa handily, something EVERY winning candidate has accomplished since 1960.

Biden won the fewest number of counties in the 2020 election by any alleged “winner” in history – winning only 16% of all US counties.

In this same election, President Trump improved in EVERY category.

  • President Trump won more Hispanic votes.
  • President Trump won more female votes.
  • Trump won more black votes.
  • President Trump won more gay votes.
  • President Trump won more immigrant votes.

But somehow, Democrat Joe Biden, who did not campaign, hid in his basement, and could barely string together two coherent sentences, supposedly won 81 million votes!?!
