The forum's staff told the Wall Street Journal that Klaus Schwab's management had sexually harassed and discriminated against women and black people for years The leadership of the World Economic Forum (WEF), including founder Klaus Schwab, have turned a blind eye to discrimination against women and black people as well as sexual harassment in the organization, the Wall Street Journal reported on Saturday, citing over 80 current and former employees and other sources familiar with the situation. The accusations contrast with the recommendations of the WEF, which has been vocally calling for the advancement of gender parity, which according to its analysts, is projected to add trillions to global economies and significantly

Just a couple of days ago I wrote about the way the national media was expressing shock over Joe Biden's performance at the debate while simultaneously ignoring the fact that many people on the right have been pointing out this was a problem for at least a year. They literally went from dismissing the right's concerns as dishonest spin to echoing them without acknowledging this meant they'd been wrong all along.
Today the NY Times is trying to creep back toward reality with a new newsletter piece headlined "The Problem in Plain Sight." Yes, I know it's hard to believe they're publishing that headline a week after they ran with "How
Joe Biden shuffled out to a White House podium on Monday and did nothing to assuage the questions surrounding his fitness for the office. Addressing the Supreme Court's decision on presidential immunity, which delivered Donald Trump a partial victory, the current president misrepresented the U.S. Constitution and attempted to change the narrative surrounding his failing campaign. He was also...oddly orange. After Biden faceplanted on the national stage, showing ample evidence of his senility at last Thursday's debate, his handlers decided to smear him in bronzer to make him look less pale.
Trump campaign spokesman Steven Cheung joined a Biden-Harris campaign call Monday, posting that it was the “saddest thing I’ve ever listened to.”
“They have given up,” he posted on X. The conference call with reporters is the first after President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance on Thursday that sent Democrats scrambling for another presidential candidate.
The call was reportedly to discuss the Supreme Court’s ruling that presidents have absolute immunity from prosecution on official actions — a development which will effectively delay some trials sought by Democrat prosecutors against former President Donald Trump until after the election.

Election Forecast: ‘Not Great News for
the President’ 6 replies
President Joe Biden plunged even further in Nate Silver’s Silver Bulletin presidential election forecast on Monday in the wake of his disastrous debate performance last week.
“[We’ve] got a string of polls in late this afternoon, they’re mostly poor for Joe Biden, and they’re beginning to have a bigger impact on the model,” wrote Silver in Monday’s forecast. “Trump now leads by 2.7 points in our national average. And Biden’s win probability has dropped to 28 percent from 35 percent on debate night.”
He continued, “Our guess is that more likely than not, there’s some further decline ahead: the model is trying to figure out whether this is random noise, but instead
President Joe Biden criticized the Supreme Court in a White House address Monday evening over its ruling that former president Donald Trump is immune from criminal prosecution for official acts taken while in office, but not unofficial ones.
“For all practical purposes, today’s decision almost certainly means that there are virtually no limits on what a president can do,” Biden said. “This is a fundamentally new principle, and it’s a dangerous precedent.”
Biden said the presidency will “no longer be constrained by the law” and that “the only limits will be imposed by the president alone.”
“This decision today has continued the Court’s attack in recent years on
House and Senate Democrat candidates began distancing themselves from President Joe Biden over the weekend after his terrible debate performance.
Many down-ballot Democrat candidates in battleground states or districts will face increased headwinds come November due to the president’s lack of popularity. A post-debate forecast from the Economist gave former President Donald Trump a 73- percent chance of victory in November. Trump leads Biden by six points in the probability of winning the popular vote in November, Nate Silver’s election model forecasted post-debate.
A Wave of Migrant Crime Engulfing America

A wave of serious migrant crime continues to sweep across America as President Joe Biden and his surrogates defend the wide-open border policies drawing millions of aliens to cascade unvetted across our borders.
American citizens and their children are being stolen from, beaten, raped, and murdered by illegals in every corner of the country even as millions of illegal migrants gobble up federal and state welfare dollars for free housing, free health care, food, clothing, education, legal services and more. Here are just a few examples of the crime America wave faces.
Donald Trump is pumped up by the Supreme Court’s major decision handed down Monday which ruled 6-3 that a president does have immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts. All three liberal judges dissented.
The ruling is a blow to Special Counsel Jack Smith’s cases against the former president.
Trump took to Truth Social to celebrate what he sees as a huge win and also to blast Joe Biden for weaponizing the justice system against his political opponents. Around 11 a.m., he posted:
BIG WIN FOR OUR CONSTITUTION AND DEMOCRACY. PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN
Monday, the Supreme Court handed down a mixed bag of a ruling on presidential immunity. In my view, they took what could've been a straightforward and elegant decision — the president is immune from prosecution for acts committed in office unless he has been impeached for those acts — and turned it into a dog's breakfast of angels-on-the-head-of-a-pin litigation about what constitutes official and unofficial acts. Susie Moore has an excellent write-up on that case at BREAKING: Supreme Court Rules on Presidential Immunity.
What has passed with remarkably little notice is Justice Clarence Thomas's concurrence. Justice Thomas says the Court is putting the cart before the horse.

The Supreme Court on Monday dismissed challenges to Florida and Texas laws that restrict how large social media companies moderate user content.
Each law would require Big Tech companies like X (formerly Twitter) and Facebook to host third-party communications but prevent those businesses from blocking or removing users' posts based on political viewpoints.
In a unanimous ruling, the court said lower courts did not properly analyze the First Amendment issues at play in the case. As a result, each case will go back to its respective Circuit Court of Appeals.

Vogue‘s latest covergirl, First Lady Jill Biden, told the magazine in a sprawling profile that she and President Joe Biden “will not let those 90 minutes” spent on the presidential debate stage last week “define the four years he’s been president. We will continue to fight.”
After a disastrous debate performance against former president Donald Trump last week — one that caused Democratic Party insiders and Biden allies in the media to call for his replacement atop the 2024 ticket — the president’s wife has taken on a heightened stature as the individual with perhaps the most influence over the president’s course of action.
For quite a while now, some of us have been trying to figure out who is actually running the country at the moment. It obviously hasn't been Joe Biden, a fact that should have been made clear during Thursday night's debate for those of you who still had some remaining questions. Some have assumed that it might be a coalition of Jeff Zients and Ron Klain, along with a few other liberal policy wonks. Others have suggested that Barack Obama is still handling things from the background, a possibility that can't be entirely ruled out. We may have gotten a better clue yesterday, however, after the Biden clan

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) plans to draft articles of impeachment after the Supreme Court ruled former President Donald Trump may have some immunity from prosecution related to actions he took in the aftermath of the 2020 election.
“The Supreme Court has become consumed by a corruption crisis beyond its control,” Ocasio-Cortez said in a post to X on Monday. “Today’s ruling represents an assault on American democracy. It is up to Congress to defend our nation from this authoritarian capture.” “I intend on filing articles of impeachment upon our return,” the New York Democrat said.
The Biden family are apparently questioning whether several top campaign aides should be fired after last week’s disastrous debate debacle — as some allies accused President Biden’s preparation team of “political malpractice.”
Talk of axing the staffers unfolded in private as President Biden and his family hunkered down at Camp David over the weekend to discuss options amid mounting calls for the 81-year-old to give up his re-election campaign, sources told CNN.
During the discussions, some members of the first family trashed the senior aides and called for them to be put on the chopping block —
MSNBC host Mika Brzezinski is calling for changes at President Biden’s reelection campaign in the wake of last week’s poor debate performance, which has raised new concerns about the president’s age and some urging for him to drop out of the race. “Does there need to be changes, yes, managing him,” Brzezinski said on “Morning Joe” on Monday. “Changes to his schedule, changes even maybe to those around him.” Biden struggled during last week’s debate against former President Trump, at times appearing confused, drifting off message and failing to string together coherent thoughts. The performance has sparked a moment of
A new report suggests that (the) presidential debate affected director Rob Reiner and actress Jane Fonda so immensely that the latter was reduced to tears while the former screamed at the TV.
According to CNN, people in attendance at the Hollywood debate watch party this past Thursday said that Reiner and Fonda were emotionally swept up in seeing President Joe Biden perform poorly against former President Trump.
A debate watch party in Los Angeles on Thursday night happened to feature Harris’ husband Doug Emhoff, Pritzker, Whitmer and Beshear.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) blasted what he called the “MAGA SCOTUS” on Monday after the U.S. Supreme Court found in favor of former President Donald Trump in his challenge to January 6th prosecutors.
Trump faces charges in Washington, D.C., brought by Special Counsel Jack Smith relating to his conduct on January 6, 2021, when rioters stormed the Capitol. He argued that he is immune from prosecution for his official acts.As Breitbart News reported, the Court found that presidents have absolute immunity from criminal prosecution for official acts, but not from unofficial acts, and remanded the case back to the trial court to determine the difference.

Multiple brawls and wild chaos engulfed Washington Square Park in the aftermath of New York City’s Pride Parade Sunday as police battled to control the unruly mob of revelers, shocking footage shows.
Video from the jaw-dropping scene showed fistfights and hair-pulling as several troublemakers turned the crowded park into their own personal boxing ring while herds of onlookers watched with glee and even whipped out their phones to record the showdowns in Lower Manhattan.
At one point, two young men threw haymakers at each other before one took a tumble to the ground.

DOCTOR Jill Biden is the power player on the cover of the August issue of Vogue that dropped early Monday and, if she was trying to make a statement about the election and last week's debate debacle, her timing couldn't have been better.
Granted, these covers are planned weeks in advance — glamour shots like DOCTOR Jill Biden's don't just happen on a whim.
But the little blurb that goes with the cover shot? That can be changed at any time, right up to publication. It doesn't take any time or special skill. (Snip)
So there's DOCTOR Jill Biden on the cover of Vogue, insisting, "WE WILL DECIDE OUR FUTURE."
Jill Biden graced the cover of Vogue as she's accused of 'elder abuse' by allowing Joe to continue his 2024 reelection campaign despite his disastrous debate.
The first lady covers the August issue of the fashion magazine in a $7,000 outfit, including a white power suit. The photo portrays an image of authority at a time Democrats say she is the only one who can talk Joe Biden off the presidential ticket and reigniting charges from conservatives that the first lady is a real power in the White House.
'We will decide our future,' reads the magazine's tagline.

Democratic Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer told President Biden's campaign that her state was no longer winnable after Biden's disastrous debate performance last week, Politico reported Monday.
The news arose from a call between Whitmer and Biden campaign Chair Jennifer O’Malley Dillon. Sources familiar with the call told the outlet that Whitmer expressed frustration that her name was being raised as a replacement for Biden in the wake of the debate.
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and former House Majority Whip James Clyburn, D-S.C., reaffirmed their support for Biden during television appearances Sunday.

President Joe Biden’s son Hunter Biden sued Fox News on Monday for publishing nude photos and videos of him in a fictionalized “mock trial” miniseries focused on his foreign business dealings.
Hunter Biden alleges Fox violated New York state’s so-called revenge porn law, which makes it illegal to publish intimate images of a person without their consent. He is also suing for unjust enrichment and intentional infliction of emotional distress.
Biden’s lawyer and representatives for Fox did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
