If you missed Kamala Harris’s speech at the Democrat National Convention, you didn’t miss much. The first act was all biography. The second act was all Trump bashing, naturally.
In one of the most stunning moments, she accused Trump of throwing away people’s votes. This is especially rich because Kamala wouldn’t even be the Democrat nominee without the Democrat party throwing away millions of votes from Democrat primary voters who voted for Biden.
On August 12, the US Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, issued a press statement commemorating the anniversary of the adoption of the Geneva Conventions.
He said: “The 75th anniversary of the adoption of the 1949 Geneva Conventions is a fitting occasion to reaffirm our commitment to respecting international humanitarian law… We call on others to do the same.”
Except Israel.
Blinken added: “Faced with the horrible reality of war, parties to armed conflict must comply with international humanitarian law to mitigate many of war’s worst humanitarian consequences, support pathways to peace, and advance the protection of civilians and other victims.”
Except Israel.
Of course, Blinken did not add the words “except Israel” but he should have, considering what had happened just two days earlier.
On August 10, Israel dropped bombs on a school sheltering displaced Palestinians, killing over 100 and injuring hundreds more.
The New York Times reported that one witness “said he found a scene of carnage unlike any he had seen in the past 10 months of war: A prayer hall strewed with bodies and body parts over two floors.” Another witness said “the dead were all in pieces.”
CNN said there was “no advance warning of the attack” and reported that the director for ambulance and emergency services said, “All of these people who were targeted were civilians, unarmed children, the elderly, men and women.”
NBC News described the event as “one of the deadliest attacks in the 10-month war” and said the strikes hit the school “during dawn prayers.” The network reported, “The White House said it was deeply concerned.” Two days earlier, Secretary Blinken announced that the US was sending billions more to Israel in a new weapons package.
The Financial Times quoted a surgeon as saying, “This was a very bloody day,” and that he had performed several amputations including on at least four children.
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.”
Bernie Sanders spoke at the Democrat National Convention tonight and decried big money in politics, even going so far as to say that rich donors should not be allowed to buy primary elections.
That’s funny, considering that is exactly what just happened. After Biden’s disastrous debate performance, rich, Hollywood, Democrat donor George Clooney wrote an op-ed for the New York Times in July, calling on other big donors to withhold cash from the Democrat party unless and until they replaced Joe Biden with someone else.
In the days that followed, almost all of the big Democrat donors basically starved Joe Biden out of the race. These donors caused the party to cast aside the 14 million primary votes that had gone to Joe Biden over many months and installed Kamala Harris as the nominee.
And yet, Bernie Sanders can stand in front of the crowd at the DNC and say this with a straight face.
The Biden-Harris administration has called voter photo identification laws “burdensome” and “unnecessary.” The administration has let hundreds of thousands of unvetted illegal immigrants pour across the border with no questions asked about who they are. But the administration’s political party has implemented identification requirements for anyone who wants to attend the Democratic National Convention (DNC).
Individuals seeking to get into the DNC must show proof of identity “for security screening” to pass through a security perimeter and physical barriers, NewsNation reported. In fact, Chicagoans who live in the “areas around the United Center and McCormick Place” where roads will be closed for the convention “will still be able to go in and out of their homes” but they are only “allowed guests as long as those guests have photo ID.”
This is all done under the guise of protecting attendees. “Security” is suddenly important to Democrats. So why not protect and secure our elections?
Eighty-one percent of Americans support requiring voters to show a “government-issued photo identification” in order to cast a vote, according to a Pew Research study. A 2022 Gallup poll found 79% of Americans support requiring a voter to prove his identity.
Vice President Kamala Harris‘ campaign cheered on a distributed denial-of-service (DDoS) targeting X—a leading American company—on Monday, as it disrupted a conversation between former President Donald J. Trump and tech mogul Elon Musk.
DDoS attacks involve flooding websites with bogus bot or botnet traffic to sabotage their functionality or knock them offline altogether. The one on the Trump-Musk X space comes as the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) is investigating a recent hack of the Trump campaign, attributed to Iran, in which internal emails were accessed.
Nevertheless, the Vice President’s team appeared thrilled that her leading election arrival—and a top U.S. business—were targeted again on Monday, trolling him on his Truth Social platform. Once their conversation concluded, Harris‘ team put out a statement sneering at Trump and Musk as “self-obsessed rich guys… who cannot run a livestream in the year 2024.”
As 20% of California suffers in poverty amid soaring power bills, soaring homelessness, businesses fleeing the state, and sky-high taxes, one might expect the state’s leadership to focus on solutions. Instead, Governor Gavin Newsom has taken a rather unconventional approach: hiring a celebrity photographer, Charles Ommanney, with a $200,000 annual salary to enhance his public image.
Yes, you read that right. In a state where many struggle to make ends meet, Newsom has brought on board a photographer known for capturing the likes of Mark Zuckerberg, George W. Bush, and Barack Obama. Ommanney’s task? To ensure that the governor is photographed in his most flattering light, whether it’s wearing aviator sunglasses while picking up trash from a homeless encampment or surveying wildfire damage in designer workwear.
This new role, which was quietly created and filled without the usual fanfare, is particularly egregious amid the backdrop of California’s economic struggles. With Ommanney now a full-time member of the governor’s team, his photos aren’t just about documenting events—they’re about crafting a carefully curated image of Newsom as a hands-on leader, Politico reports.
And while residents suffer, their governor is ramping up his meticulously polished persona, perhaps with an eye on the national stage. Earlier this year, instead of delivering the traditional State of the State address, Newsom’s office produced a glossy video, complete with dramatic visuals—some of which were shot by Ommanney—highlighting national issues over local crises.
You’d never see this at a Trump rally.
Kamala Harris held a rally on Saturday in Las Vegas on Saturday.
The crowd was filled with weirdos and freaks and their were completely empty sections at the rally – via Joe Hoft.
During the rally her opening act, a teacher, told the crowd how much she enjoyed indoctrinating children over the years.
And then after the rally ended they left piles of trash outside the COX Pavilion for someone else to come clean up.
Communists be communists.
During a left-wing rally in Walthamstow that was billed by the media as “peaceful,” a Labour Party councillor talking about right-wingers asserted, “We need to cut all their throats and get rid of them.”
After a hoax list was circulated on Telegram, the mainstream media reported that there were at least 100 “far-right riots” scheduled to take place last night.
In reality, none of this ever materialized, enabling leftists to turn out in numbers and declare victory, a narrative that was bolstered by the same media responsible for amplifying the ‘100 riots’ hoax in the first place.
Indeed, the only serious disorder occurred in Croydon, where police were pelted with objects by youths, although the Met was quick to assert that the disorder was “not linked to protest” and appeared “to be pure anti-social behaviour.”
Secretary of State Antony Blinken announced Thursday that the Biden regime officially recognizes Edmundo González Urrutia as the legitimate winner of Venezuela’s July 28 presidential election.
This statement comes after widespread allegations of electoral fraud and manipulation by the Maduro regime.
In a statement, Blinken commended the Venezuelan people for their resilience and participation in an election marred by significant challenges.
“At least 12 million Venezuelans peacefully went to the polls and exercised one of the most powerful rights given to people in any democracy: the right to vote,” he said.
However, he condemned the National Electoral Council (CNE), which is widely viewed as a tool of Nicolás Maduro’s government, for its handling of the election results.
“The CNE’s rapid declaration of Nicolás Maduro as the winner came with no supporting evidence,” Blinken said.
He highlighted that despite calls from both Venezuelans and the international community, the CNE has failed to publish crucial data, including disaggregated vote tallies and official precinct-level results.
Blinken condemned Maduro’s threats against opposition leaders, including Edmundo González and María Corina Machado. He called for their protection and the immediate release of all individuals arrested for peacefully participating in the electoral process.
