Former President Barack Obama’s onetime speechwriter claimed that reports that President Joe Biden is angry over Israel’s airstrike that killed seven aid workers “only make him look weak.”
Jon Favreau said Biden does not deserve credit for being “privately enraged” over the killing of the aid workers because he has not used his position to “leverage” change from the Israeli government to stop its military campaign in Gaza. Biden has received much backlash over his response to the Israel-Hamas war. “The President doesn’t get credit for being ‘privately enraged’ when he still refuses to use leverage to stop the IDF from killing and starving innocent people,” Favreau posted to X

The 2024 general election is in full swing and the presidential candidates are making their case to the nation. President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump are duking it out on the campaign trail as Americans decide which candidate they will support.
A new Economist/YouGov poll’s findings revealed precisely what the 2024 election will be about. The survey showed that regardless of which side one is on, this race is all about Trump.
Researchers found that about 67 percent of Trump supporters are mostly voting for the former president. Among Democrats, about 52 percent indicated their votes will be against Trump.

It was a terrible quake that struck near Hualien City, Taiwan, just as the workday was beginning on Wednesday. Details aren't yet complete but, so far, nine people have been reported killed, over a thousand more injured, and 152 trapped in damaged buildings, quarries, and other places.
At 7.4 on the Richter Scale, the Hualien shifter was three times more powerful and released 5.6 times more energy than the 1989 Loma Prieta earthquake that dropped part of San Francisco's elevated Embarcadaro freeway, killed 63 people, and injured 3,757 more.
“It was pretty scary,” a visiting American told NBC News. “In all the years that I’ve lived here and

I was born in the 1960s, just about the time people decided it was bad for children to be born.
Oh, I don’t take it personally. It’s just people started to worry about a “population explosion.”
Thanks to antibiotics, vaccines, mosquito eradication and better farming, people weren’t dying off as they had been.
But they were still having babies.
This led to more people.
And quite a few folks — themselves already born — thought that was bad. The most famous is Stanford’s Paul Ehrlich, an entomologist whose bestselling book about people, “The Population Bomb,” promised the Earth a grim Malthusian fate, only a decade or so away.

Time for a new pandemic or other crisis, because it's going to take a lot of rigging to get Joe Biden across the finish line this November.
I'm not making any predictions, mind you. Crises and pandemics can be manufactured on demand these days. It's not like the MSM is above putting its thumbs on the scales to move the needle.
But according to Gallup, Joe Biden's reputation among Americans keeps getting worse, while Trump is still doing pretty well.
There is no mystery about why many Americans hate Trump, but I have to say that after the disastrous 3 years of Biden's presidency I am not

The 1792 Exchange launched a database exposing the political biases of woke Fortune 250 companies such as Disney.
The 1792 Exchange is a nonprofit dedicated to providing resources and developing policies to educate Americans about “woke” companies, as well as the dangers with Environment, Social, and Governance (ESG) investing.
The nonprofit launched its “Board Bias” database exposing the political activities and ideological statements from board members and executives.
“The Board Bias database gives folks a fuller picture of the people behind the decisions made by corporations. We hope it’s a tool that informs shareholders and educates the public,” Daniel Cameron, the CEO of the 1792 Exchange, told Breitbart News in a statement.

The judge presiding over Donald Trump's falsifying business records case shot down his bid to use presidential immunity as part of his defense, finding the former president waited too long to raise the issue.
In his ruling Wednesday, Judge Juan Merchan also denied Trump's motion to delay the trial's start date until the U.S. Supreme Court rules on his immunity claims in the federal election interference case in Washington, D.C. Trump had contended in a New York filing last month that he’s immune from state prosecution based on “official acts,” and that some of the evidence against him should be kept out of the impending trial because

In 2020, President Joe Biden's victory was buoyed by strong support among Black and Latino voters, as well as young voters.
It was this concentration of support in key swing states including Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin that gave Biden the edge that year.
But in a new Wall Street Journal survey of the seven swing states, Biden continues to struggle to recreate the 2020 electoral coalition that paved his way to the White House.
Former President Donald Trump leads Biden in all of the above mentioned states, plus North Carolina.

He’s not losing in all the battleground states. He’s coming up, and he’s even or doing better,” she said. “Once people start to focus in, and they see their two choices, it’s obvious that Joe will win this election.”
Americans have been excited and understand the presidential election’s consequences, according to the first lady.

The Biden administration is secretly using migrant flights to dump illegal aliens into the United States. It turns out that most of them are being flown into Florida and Texas.
Hmm. Is it a coincidence that two red states that are being vigilant in securing their borders are receiving 90% of the migrant flights? I don't think so.
The Center for Immigration Studies analyzed available public information on U.S. Customs and Border Protection's (CBP) website. It's difficult to know the full picture since the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) refuses to publicly identify the dozens of international airports it has approved for direct flights from abroad for some inadmissible aliens.

Elon Musk is backing Nelson Peltz in the proxy battle for the future of Disney.
Onlookers are waiting with baited breath after the bitter voting to select Disney’s board of directors closed last night, with CEO Bob Iger‘s nominees appearing likely to win out. However, that didn’t stop X/Twitter and Tesla owner Musk taking to social media this morning to provide his two cents.
He wrote: “Nelson Peltz should definitely be on the Disney board! He would help reform the company, improve the quality of product and generally serve in the best interests of shareholders, as he has done at many other companies. This would significantly improve Disney’s share price.”
