Sen. J.D. Vance made his appeal to 'booing' firefighters at a conference in Boston on Thursday. The Republican vice presidential nominee took in stride the commanding boos that came over a chorus of cheers at the International Association of Firefighters conference as he urged them to give him a chance to deliver his 'pitch' to earn their vote. 'Sounds like we've got some fans and some haters – that's OK,' Vance said. But he urged the crowd to 'listen to what i have to say here and I'll make my pitch.'

Vice President Kamala Harris’ much-anticipated CNN interview on Thursday did not go as she would have hoped, at least according to presidential election oddsmakers.
Newsweek reported, “The vice president went from being the favorite to win with odds of 10/11 (52.4 percent) on Thursday to tied with Donald Trump on 19/20 (51.3 percent) each on Friday morning, according to the Star Sports betting company.”
“Over the same period, Trump’s odds of victory in November improved from 21/20 (48.8 percent) before the interview to 20/21 (51.2 percent), according to U.K. based bookmaker Betfair,” the outlet noted.
Democrat vice presidential nominee Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz argued for using algae to power the United States Navy as part of his efforts to fight climate change, claiming that sustainable energy solutions are crucial for military resilience.
During a debate with his then-opponent, Republican Jim Hagedorn, in Winona, Minnesota, in 2016, Walz spoke of the growing recognition that climate change is a pressing concern that cannot be ignored.While noting that the nation’s armed forces can adopt new eco-friendly resources, Walz insisted that “the Pentagon is not a bunch of green tree-huggers.”

Even as the Kamala Harris team is trying to sell us on the "joy" of the cackle (as opposed to how wacky it truly is), they themselves are reportedly a tension wracked group of folks, struggling to figure out who's doing what. It has Harris loyalists and Biden alumni grafter on top of Biden people, as Fox's Peter Doocy dished, with people leaking about the issues. It's the "Frankenstein" team. (Video) As Axios reported:

Prior to CNN’s Thursday interview with the Democratic ticket of Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, we suggested 30 questions that Dana Bash might ask the duo in their much-hyped first interview. But when it came time to sit down to talk in Savannah, Bash only asked five of them.
Bash did manage to ask Harris about her fracking flip-flop, “Do you still want to ban fracking?... In 2019, I believe in a town hall, you said -- you were asked, would you commit to implementing a federal ban on fracking on your first day in office? And you said: There's no question I'm in favor of banning fracking. So, yes.

That same day, Goffman wrote to Rich Gold, a major Democratic donor and Holland & Knight lobbyist who represents clients including the American Chemistry Council, oil and gas companies, and the timber industry, to thank him.
“It’s live,” Goffman said of the job announcement, text messages reviewed by The Daily Wire show. “Will I ever be able to thank you enough?”

Republicans believe former President Donald Trump made the right choice in picking Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance to be his running mate as the campaign enters the fourth quarter of the election season.
Through the final weeks of August, Vance has spent his time on the campaign trail, sparring with hostile media and drawing contrast to Vice President Kamala Harris as she dodges the media. Prior though, Vance was fighting a barrage of Democratic attacks that branded him as “weird” for past statements.
Republicans and campaign officials expressed satisfaction with Vance’s performance in conversations with the Daily Caller.
Experts are warning against Vice President Kamala Harris’ proposed tax strategy, which they say would threaten the future of the United States economically. Recently, Harris’ campaign confirmed that the Democratic presidential nominee supports a $5 trillion tax increase, among a long list of other tax hikes, to the unrealized gains of wealthy Americans. Economic advisors caution that such a move would be a financial calamity, resulting in the most significant tax increase the U.S. has seen in over 40 years.

The Trump-Vance campaign rolled out a brutal new ad in response to Vice President Kamala Harris’s first sit-down interview since taking the top spot on the Democratic Party ticket. As Matt and Sarah covered, the interview was a train wreck, though it went as expected.
In a statement, the Trump-Vance campaign identified what the vice president didn’t discuss with CNN, including the nation’s crime crisis, her support for ending cash bail, defunding the police, Medicare-for-All, closing immigration detention centers, reparations, her vote for the American Rescue Plan, which fueled inflation, among other issues. “Kamala said her values ‘have not changed’ three separate times,” the statement noted. “She’s still
Oprah Winfrey claims Vice President Kamala Harris is “no longer hiding in plain sight” after her recorded interview with CNN in which she had her running mate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) as her chaperone, adding that Harris’s avoidance of the media is simply something that women do to make themselves “smaller, narrower, and dimmer.”
Speaking to Variety at the Venice Film Festival on Thursday, Winfrey claimed that Harris has gone from “hiding in plain sight” as presidential candidate to “stepping into the true vision of herself,” following her recorded interview with CNN.
Now we see why the Dems didn't want Kamala Harris as their nominee.
Four weeks into campaigning, she finally granted an interview — to a very friendly CNN, toting her VP pick Tim Walz along for reasons unknown.
Moral support, perhaps? A buddy to pick up her verbal slack? Either way, it wasn't a winning look for someone who wants to be president of the United States.
As for her answers: Harris was vague, policy-free, and at times just plain full of it.

The United Nations is “terrified” at the prospect of a second Trump presidency, according to a leaked conversation with a senior official at the global agency. “I’m not sure the United Nations is going to survive a second term from Donald Trump,” Jorge Paoletti, an associate legal officer at the UN Office of Legal Affairs in New York, told an undercover reporter from podcaster Steven Crowder’s Mug Club.
Did you catch Kamala Harris's first "interview" as the Democratic Party nominee for president? It was pretty much everything you'd expect from an interview conducted by CNN. Lots of softball questions, lots of word salad responses. CNN anchor Dana Bash actually asked some decent questions, but what really struck me about the interview was that Kamala Harris, more often than not, avoided answering most of the questions, and Bash didn't seem to be concerned with getting an actual answer.
You knew things were going to be bad when Harris really struggled to give a coherent answer to the cliché question about what she would do on "on day one."
During his joint CNN interview with Vice President Kamala Harris Thursday evening, Minnesota governor Tim Walz brushed aside criticisms that he has misrepresented his military service, telling network host Dana Bash that his “grammar is not always correct” but that his “record speaks for itself.”
In the middle of Thursday’s interview, Bash asked Walz to address comments he made in a 2018 campaign clip during which he said the country should restrict ownership of the types of weapons that “I carried in war” – a misleading statement given he deployed to Italy in 2003 but never served in a combat zone.

POTTERVILLE, Mich. — Former President Donald Trump said in an interview with NBC News on Thursday that if he is elected, his administration would not only protect access to in-vitro fertilization but would also have either the government or insurance companies cover the cost of the expensive service for American women who need it.
"We are going to be, under the Trump administration, we are going to be paying for that treatment," Trump said before adding, "We're going to be mandating that the insurance company pay." Asked to clarify whether the government would pay for IVF services or whether insurance companies would do so, Trump reiterated that one option

Savannah, Ga.—Vice President Kamala Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, will sit down Thursday for their first major television interview of their presidential campaign as the duo travels in southeast Georgia on a bus tour.
The interview with CNN’s Dana Bash will give Harris a chance to quell criticism that she has eschewed uncontrolled environments, while also giving her a fresh platform to define her campaign and test her political mettle ahead of an upcoming debate with former President Donald Trump set for Sept. 10. But it also carries risk as her team tries to build on momentum from the ticket shakeup following Joe Biden’s exit

After laying a white rose at the site of the Diversity Festival slashing that left three dead and eight wounded, Chancellor Olaf Scholz promised rapid action would be taken against knives.
Right now, people in Germany can carry knives up to 4.7 inches long. The law will be modified so that they can only carry knives up to 2.4 inches long. No one appears to have considered the possibility that Muslim terrorists on the way to killing as many infidels as possible might violate the law and carry a concealed knife of 4 inches or longer. Such thoughts are unthinkable.
Actor Ben Stiller received a mixed reception online after he endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, saying that her candidacy has brought "change" to the Democratic Party.
"Just very excited about moving forward and all the energy and excitement that's around this movement right now," Stiller said in a video interview posted by journalist Nicholas A. Ballasy that has since gone viral online. "That's why I'm here, because it's time for change, and it seems like it's happening."
Stiller and other Hollywood celebrities, including actor George Clooney, have endorsed Harris as President Biden's successor as the Democratic Party's nominee for president. When asked if Harris could keep up her momentum after the
