Audio from the Las Vegas Metro Police Department's protective detail for President Joe Biden on July 17 was released Friday afternoon by Oversight Project, which obtained the recordings through a Freedom of Information Act request. Those recordings confirm RedState's reporting that Biden was first headed to University Medical Center, a trauma center, after he suddenly canceled a speaking engagement due to illness, then suddenly diverted directly to Harry Reid International Airport. The three recordings span a time frame of a few hours and are not timestamped, so it's difficult to get exact time frames from them
Former President Trump’s plane was diverted to Billings, Montana, on Friday due to a mechanical issue, a Billings airport official said.
The Republican presidential nominee is scheduled to hold a rally in nearby Bozeman, Montana, Friday evening, and is still expected to make it.
"I just landed in a really beautiful place: Montana. So beautiful, flying over and you just look down and that's the way it's supposed to be," Trump said in a video from his plane posted to social media, making no mention of any plane issues or of the diversion. "I'm here to do some fundraisers and most important
Now this is how you play three-dimensional chess. After the assassination of Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran, Iran threatened massive retaliation ... but hesitated. Hezbollah also threatened to attack on an unprecedented scale ... but has yet to do so. Intel out of the region suggested earlier this week that Iran might wait until the Israeli holiday of mourning on Tisha B'av, if indeed they decide to attack at all, which suddenly sounded less firm later this week after Israel threatened to retaliate against all of their enemies as disproportionately as they could.
Tisha B'av starts on Monday. Today, Benjamin Netanyahu agreed
A passenger plane carrying 62 people crashed on the outskirts of São Paulo on Friday afternoon, killing everyone on board, according to Brazilian officials. Dramatic footage from the scene showed the Voepass Linhas Aéreas plane’s fall and its destroyed fuselage in flames on the ground.
“There are no survivors,” Ana Cândida Briski, communications director of the nearby city of Valinhos, told CNN, adding that there were no ground victims.
Flight tracking data shows that the the ATR 72-500, a twin-engine turboprop plane, dropped 17,000 feet in just one minute, but it is not yet clear why. “There is still no confirmation

Says Chromosomes Don’t Determine Sex:
‘Not True Anymore’ 29 replies
The president of the Olympics’s governing body no longer believes in basic human biology when it comes to determining a person’s biological sex, a testament to the influence of progressive gender ideology across many major institutions.
International Olympic Committee president Thomas Bach suggested during a press conference Friday that identifying people’s biological sex based on their chromosomes is outdated. His comments came in response to a question about the recent controversy over two boxers competing in the women’s division after failing sex-identification tests administered by an outside sports body last year.
The Ukrainian Army launched an attack into Russia's Kursk Oblast during the early hours of Tuesday. The attacking force seems to consist of about two brigades of tanks and infantry fighting vehicles, totaling about 1500 to 2000 troops. The attack swiftly overran Russian positions, seized over 200 square miles of Russian territory, seized the gas pumping station that controls all Russian gas flows to Europe, and appears to have controlled the main Russian railway supply route for Russian forces in Ukraine.
U.S., Ukrainian and Russian officials all acknowledged the ongoing attack, which stunned Moscow and appeared to involve the use of armored fighting vehicles donated to Kyiv
Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin is ordering all votes for the 2024 presidential election to be cast by paper ballot.
Youngkin issued Executive Order 35 on Wednesday, which codifies election security protocols established under his governance for all future elections.
"The Virginia model for Election Security works. This isn't a Democrat or Republican issue, it's an American and Virginian issue," Youngkin said in an announcement. "Every legal vote deserves to be counted without being watered down by illegal votes or inaccurate machines. In Virginia, we don’t play games and our model for election security is working."

Emblematic of What Her Presidency Would
Do to America 6 replies
Kamala Harris held a rally in Detroit Wednesday in which she once again trotted out some kind of weird accent that she somehow thinks honors the locale (but which is actually insulting), and she once again had to provide a free concert to get folks to show up. But there was something different about this rally - that's the completely FUBAR'd logistical situation as the rally-goers tried to get back home. The chaotic scene perfectly encapsulates what America would be like under a Harris presidency: a complete lack of organization/accountability/sense in government, resulting in tired, hungry, and angry masses of people simply trying to escape.
Reporters Finally Corner Harris for Questions,

but She Once Again Illustrates Trump's Point 2 replies
How long has it been since the coup on Biden that took the Democratic nomination from Joe and handed it to Kamala Harris? Eighteen days?
Former President Donald Trump and his running mate JD Vance have been excoriating her over her failure to respond to questions, do an interview, or even enunciate her positions on issues. But she's gone to ground, embracing the Joe Biden "basement strategy." But on Thursday, reporters were finally able to corner Kamala for a few questions. She responded to a couple, but not surprisingly, she gave non-answer answers.
She was asked about the stolen valor scandal imploding around her VP choice Tim Walz regarding his comments
I've said it out loud. I'm sure you've said it out loud. But it's one thing for a private citizen like you or me to say it — and it's quite another for a former and probably future president of the United States to say it out loud.
In public. On camera. For the whole world to hear and see.
It was a glorious thing to say, too — and for more than just the obvious reason that it happens to be true. But I'll get to that in a moment.
"The presidency was taken away from Joe Biden," former President Donald Trump told reporters during a sometimes testy press conference
Britain is no longer falling.
It has fallen, and it may never get back up.
Hate speech laws have been plaguing Britain for years, and people have sporadically gotten arrested for offending the wrong person--usually somebody in the alphabet community, who are the most "protected" people in the Western world right now. Close behind are Muslims, who can rampage across Great Britain shouting about killing all Jews, replacing English law with Sharia, and run a parallel police system to enforce Sharia among Muslims. The warnings went out a few days ago, telling people not to be mean online.
Possibly very true. Also possibly very true: The US might need to strike actual gold to afford it.
Nevertheless, Donald Trump has emphasized his desire to find new places to cut taxes in order to generate real economic growth. Those ideas are also clearly aimed at finding inroads into traditional Democrat constituencies. A proposal to end taxes on tips has a lot of appeal for low-income servers, who are likely younger voters, and both are key demos for Kamala Harris and other Democrats. It didn't woo the culinary union leaders, but it might appeal to their members.
His latest proposal clearly has the New York Times worried

Kamala Harris has selected Tim Walz as her running mate for the upcoming election.
This decision raises serious concerns about national security and the integrity of American values, given Walz’s radical policies and extensive ties to Communist China.
Senior reporter Paul Sperry from RealClear Investigations recently uncovered a disturbing pattern in Walz’s relationship with China.
According to investigative journalist Paul Sperry on X, Walz traveled to China annually from 1996 until at least 2003. His travels were not merely for tourism; he was granted a special work visa by the Chinese government, which raises questions about his loyalties and motivations.
Is Kamala Black?

Probably inadvertently and for all the wrong reasons, Donald Trump made an important point last week when he said of the Democrats’ most recent presidential nominee, Kamala Harris:
“She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage. I didn’t know she was Black until a number of years ago, when she happened to turn Black, and now she wants to be known as Black.”
Cue media exploding in ritualistic rage at Trump for his “racist attack.”(snip)
In fact, it actually is important that Harris is not a foundational black American (FBA), but rather, the child of immigrants. I know we don’t talk about it nearly enough, but remember slavery?
For weird characters like Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, now Kamala Harris's running mate, there is no such thing as human nature.
Which is why he and his woke coevals are constantly in for a surprise when they make human beings into their guinea pigs for a Better World.
And this is particularly obvious in matters involving children and their identities. It's very well known that boys, when given Barbie dolls to play with will turn them into guns for cowboy play.
Writer Kira Davis saw what happened when Tim Walz's wokesterly idea of putting tampon and maxipad dispensers in the boys' room of her kids' high school in California.
Why Harris isn’t taking questions

There is a line in the movie “Bull Durham” where CRASH DAVIS, the sage journeyman catcher played by KEVIN COSTNER, tells “NUKE” LaLOOSH, the young fireballer portrayed by TIM ROBBINS, that you never, uh, mess with a winning streak.
The same holds true in politics.
Vice President KAMALA HARRIS has been on a remarkable heater ever since replacing President JOE BIDEN atop the Democratic ticket, raising ridiculous amounts of money, meeting massive, euphoric crowds wherever she’s gone and instantly rising in the polls.
Democratic vice presidential candidate Tim Walz attends a church that preaches beliefs related to gender, race and sexuality that many Christian denominations strongly oppose. (snip) Materials published by Pilgrim Lutheran Church instruct parishioners not to refer to God using male pronouns, push congregants to support reparation funds, encourage them to celebrate Ramadan and include a modified gender-neutral version of the Lord’s Prayer, among other liberal practices.
Pilgrim Lutheran Church is part of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), a mainline protestant denomination that has been criticized by some conservative Christians for ordaining transgender and lesbian bishops as well as for its embrace of LGBT ideology.
President Joe Biden is headed to Delaware again Thursday after holding an empty public schedule since he returned to the White House Monday. He was also in Delaware last weekend. (X's) During the daily briefing at the White House Wednesday, Press Secretary Karine Jean Pierre falsely claimed reporters have had access to Biden. (X Video) Meanwhile, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi is in hot water with the White House after telling CNN Biden dropped out of the 2024 race due to a lack of stamina. She also revealed she hasn't spoken to Biden since he dropped out while laughably claiming she had nothing to do with his exit and
Kamala Harris hired Eric Holder to do the background vetting on Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, prior to the announcement of Walz being her VP candidate. Keep in mind, Barack Obama and Eric Holder do not have any issues with Tim Walz as the VP candidate. Factually, Walz is a very unstable person, prone to an intemperate disposition, has no problem targeting children for his fetish ideology under the guise of gender reassignment (cutting off the genitals of children), and is a proud Marxist.
Against the backdrop of ‘who he is’ the difference between ‘who he presents himself to be‘ is the real issue.
How Trump Can Win – or Lose – the Election

The good news for the Trump campaign is that the sure Democratic nominee Kamala Harris is a lifelong California hard leftist at a time when the state is emblematic of progressive nihilism. Her extremist advocacies as a San Francisco county and city attorney, state Attorney General, and senator are on record. And they are consistent with what has virtually destroyed the state. [Snip] However, the bad news for Trump is that there are only roughly 90 days left to expose Harris’s extremist record. And like cognitively challenged Joe Biden in 2020, her handlers will not allow her to speak extemporaneously or to give interviews to real journalists.
Vice President Kamala Harris told anti-Israel hecklers who interrupted her Detroit campaign rally Wednesday night that their activism risks handing the Nov. 5 election to former President Donald Trump.
“Kamala! Kamala! You Can’t Hide! We Won’t Vote for Genocide!” a group of protesters chanted.
“You know what? If you want Donald Trump to win, then say that. Otherwise, I’m speaking,” the 59-year-old Democratic presidential nominee said after a series of disruptions — pausing to stare down the demonstrators.
Moments earlier, Harris had tried to wait out the ruckus, saying with a more patient tone, “I’m here because we believe in democracy. Everyone’s voice matters, but I am speaking now.”

Joe Biden’s schedule this week has people once again wondering why this man is still the President of the United States.
His official schedule listed two phone calls and one meeting, followed by an early weekend departure to his Delaware beach house on Thursday.
What other job in the world would include this kind of schedule? There are major events unfolding across the country and Joe seems to be on a permanent vacation. (X) The Daily Wire reported: Biden’s Schedule For The Week Includes 2 Phone Calls And 1 Meeting Before He Leaves For His Beach House
The advertising trade group The World Federation of Advertisers told its members on Thursday that it was "discontinuing" activities for its Global Alliance for Responsible Media initiative following an antitrust lawsuit filed by Elon Musk's X against the company earlier this week.
Stephan Loerke, the CEO of the WFA, wrote in an email to members, seen by Business Insider, that the decision was "not made lightly" but that GARM is a not-for-profit organization with limited resources.
Loerke said that the WFA and GARM intended to contest the allegations in X's suit in court and were confident the outcome
