As Democrats revel in Vice President Harris closing the polling gap against former President Trump, speculation is ramping up over who might serve in a potential Harris Cabinet if she prevails in November. Any Cabinet appointee would likely face a razor-thin Democratic-controlled or GOP-controlled Senate, meaning Harris would have to balance partisan realities with her desire to break the mold with her choices, like naming the first woman to head the Pentagon.“I’m sure it will be very diverse.

Why should Hamas agree to a ceasefire when its refusal is blamed on Israel by the president of the United States? In addition, when Biden blames Israel, he encourages other allies, such as Great Britain, Canada, France and Germany, to do the same.
[Biden] blamed Netanyahu alone without even mentioning Hamas. And this was after Hamas terrorists had murdered six hostages, including an American.
Although Biden did say that the Hamas killers would pay a price for the murders of the hostages, he did not say that Iran— which controls Hamas— would pay any price, including increased sanctions, or worse, unless the hostages, including the Americans, are released, unharmed, immediately.

A gas explosion in a coalmine in Iran’s South Khorasan province has killed at least 51 people and injured 20, Iran’s state media said.
The accident was caused by a methane gas explosion in two blocks, B and C, of the mine run by the Madanjoo company, state media said on Sunday.
The governor of South Khorasan province, Ali Akbar Rahimi, told state TV: “Seventy-six per cent of the country’s coal is provided from this region and around eight to 10 big companies are working in the region, including Madanjoo company.”
In Friday’s episode of “In Depth With Graham Bensinger,” the 53-year-old shed light on “living in Kansas City since ‘Modern Family’ ended basically.”
Stonestreet shared that leaving his home in KC for Los Angeles gigs has illuminated some Hollywood highs and lows.
“What I realized it does is it highlights everything great about our business, the entertainment business,” the actor reflected. “And it highlights all the douchebaggery of our business. It amplifies it. Because I’m here, I’m dealing with people from here, and I’m going into the store and having all these authentic, real moments, and then I go to Hollywood,
How I was canceled for what

Everyone in my business takes lumps for things they say.
That comes with the territory.
What’s different is getting smeared for something you verifiably didn’t say. This has been the project of malicious accounts on X the last few days that have insisted that I said a racial slur during an appearance on “The Megyn Kelly Show” last weekend.
These ridiculously false accusations on social media — that have been rebutted even by people who disagree with me politically — have now resulted in cancellations in the real world.

The French presidential palace unveiled a new center-right government Saturday, more than two months after elections that produced a hung parliament and deepened political divisions as France grapples with economic and diplomatic challenges.
Conservative French Prime Minister Michel Barnier put together the government after weeks of difficult negotiations, and President Emmanuel Macron approved it. The new government was announced at the presidential palace.
A left-wing coalition secured the most seats in June-July elections but failed to win an outright majority. The 38-member Cabinet announced Saturday includes primarily ministers from Macron’s centrist alliance and the conservative Republicans party.
A tidal wave of cheap Chinese imports floods the national market.
Industries reel, companies crumble and factories close their doors for good.
The livelihoods of countless families disintegrate.
This could be a description of the original “China Shock,” the long-term result of the United States’ policy of “free trade” with China, which cost America 2.4 million jobs between 1999 and 2011.
But it also describes what countries across the globe are facing right now: a massive glut of vital industrial inputs and high-value goods, courtesy of Chinese overproduction.
Just look at Latin America,
New York magazine’s Washington correspondent Olivia Nuzzi was placed on leave after she had an alleged romantic relationship with former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr while covering his campaign.
Nuzzi, without naming the 70-year-old Kennedy scion, admitted in a Thursday night statement that earlier this year “the nature of some communications between myself and a former reporting subject turned personal.”
The 31-year-old star political reporter insisted the relationship was not physical in nature.

Israel’s Ingenious Strike Against Terrorist Pagers 28 replies
Back in the late 1980s to early 1990s, the only people with pagers were doctors and drug dealers. And if you happened to be friends with a doctor or drug dealer, you learned to call the pager and leave a numeric code. (We even figured out a way to pass along football scores.) This communication process wasn’t turnkey, but where there’s a will, there’s a way. But pagers, of course, went the way of the typewriter and telegraph machine. Nowadays, the only people who still use pagers are, well, doctors and drug dealers. (Lots of hospitals have lousy cell reception, so the medical staff is armed with pagers.)
Democrats have complete control of the state government in Colorado. The last Republican governor left office in 2007. The last time Republicans controlled one of the legislature's two chambers was 2019, and Democrats currently hold a supermajority in both the House and the Senate. Over the past decade, Democrats have enacted a number of new gun control laws, including "universal" background checks, a ban on "large capacity" magazines, and a "red flag" law, as well as repealing firearms preemption and allowing localities to pass their own measures more restrictive than state law. So how's that working out for the state?
Firing Incompetent People Is Necessary

“When somebody does a bad job, I fire them,” said former President Donald Trump during his recent debate with Vice President Kamala Harris.
On the other hand, “They never fired one person. They didn't fire anybody having to do with Afghanistan,” Trump said, referring to the Biden-Harris administration. “Look at the economy. Look at the inflation. They didn't fire any of their economists. They have the same people.” Although Trump’s comment about the Biden-Harris administration’s propensity to not fire incompetent officials who have screwed up royally over the past four years did not garner the attention it rightfully deserves, it certainly struck a chord with me and many more Americans.
U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP) released its latest statistics Monday, showing nearly 530,000 migrants flew into the U.S. and were paroled into the country as part of the Biden administration’s controversial mass parole program for those migrating from Cuba, Haiti, Nicaragua and Venezuela (CHNV). The August report includes data after the Department of Homeland Security resumed processing new Advance Travel Authorizations (ATAs) in the parole process for the CHNV program.

Vice President Kamala Harris‘ husband, Doug Emhoff, claimed during an interview this week that it was unfair for people to criticize his wife’s performance over the last three and a half years because she was not the president.
Emhoff made the remarks during a softball ABC News interview Friday morning on “Good Morning America,” which came just days after the network’s debate between Harris and former President Donald Trump that was extremely biased against the Republican nominee.
Co-anchor Michael Strahan asked Emhoff if he thought it was fair that his wife was being criticized for the numerous failings
In what could be a massive game changer in the 2024 presidential election, the union representing workers from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has endorsed Kamala Harris.
In a press release this week, the National Treasury Employees Union which represents workers of the Internal Revenue Service confirmed that the decision had been taken “after extensive research into the candidates’ records regarding the federal workforce, and consultation with NTEU members and chapter leaders across the country.” (X) “When it comes to treating federal employees with respect, valuing their service, and investing in their work, Kamala Harris is the clear choice,”
Shocking new details were released by Republicans on the House Oversight Committee on Friday of US military brass ignoring President Trump’s request for security on January 6th.
President Trump knew there would be a massive crowd of Americans at the planned rallies outside the US Capitol and at the Ellipse that day. So, Trump ordered the National Guard to be deployed to the US Capitol prior to the planned protests on January 6.
The newly surfaced transcripts, which were previously concealed, reveal the truth that many in the mainstream media have ignored.

Author and constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley sounded the alarm on Hillary Clinton's "chilling" suggestion that Americans who share disinformation should be arrested. Turley addressed the former secretary of state's controversial remarks on free speech during "America's Newsroom," warning that the global effort to stifle free speech has reached U.S. shores. JONATHAN TURLEY: I talk about her in my new book, ‘The Indispensable Right,' and how she's been one of the outstanding voices in the anti-free speech movement. Her views on free speech are quite chilling. What's interesting is that for years, the left has been trying to get people to embrace censorship, but it's hard
There’s going to be a (large) percentage of readers whose eye will roll at this headline: You don’t listen to Sean Combs… or P. Diddy… or Diddy… or Puff Daddy… or whatever he’s calling himself today. Not your jam, not your bag: “So, okay, Combs was busted this week for sex trafficking and racketeering, and is currently sitting inside a jail cell on suicide watch. But why should I care?”
For a couple of reasons:
First, this seems to be a story with nice, long legs that even Tina Turner would envy. There’s sex, celebrities, wild parties, debauchery, baby oil(!), and more —
A very curious image has been making the rounds on social media for a few days now and it’s raising some serious questions about who is really in charge of the country right now.
It’s a picture of one of Joe Biden’s official legislation folders and it includes not only Joe Biden’s signature, but also Jill Biden’s. Why does her signature appear here? No one elected her to anything.
Just this week, people across the country were shocked to see Jill Biden sitting at the head of the table at a Joe Biden cabinet meeting, now this.

Officials' Release Letter Endorsing Kamala Harris 18 replies
Of all the things that Kamala Harris is unfit to do, of all the duties she should never be entrusted with, commander-in-chief of the American armed forces and the national intelligence apparatus has to be at the top of the list. That is not, however, preventing over 700 "national security officials" from endorsing her in her POTUS run. That's an endorsement that is almost as chilling as her endorsement by the tax collectors union.
This endorsement from "national security officials" reads like it was written on Opposite Day:
More than 700 high-ranking national security officials have endorsed Democratic candidate Vice President Harris

It’s a shame what’s going on in Springfield, Ohio. [Snip] They’re eating dogs. They’re eating cats. [Snip] It’s been thoroughly debunked, but since when does truth matter when you have the backing of the triumvirate of political treachery: Trump, his running mate and Ohio’s Republican senator, J.D. Vance, and Republican Bernie Moreno, who is trying to unseat Ohio’s other senator, Democrat Sherrod Brown. [Snip] In MAGA-land, focusing targets on brown-skinned immigrants can be a dangerous game. [Snip] All because of a politically advantageous lie, promoted largely by a man out on bond.

Four people were killed and at least 21 others were wounded in a mass shooting Saturday night in Birmingham, Alabama. Two men and a woman were killed at the scene in the 2000 block of Magnolia Avenue in the Five Points South area near the University of Alabama at Birmingham, while a fourth victim died at the university's hospital, Birmingham Police told AL.com. The incident happened shortly after 11 p.m., Officer Truman Fitzgerald told the outlet.
During an interview with Bloomberg on Friday, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) declared that “you can’t compromise on women’s right to choose. I don’t think that you can compromise on the fact that we’ve got women who are in danger of dying because doctors are afraid of the government coming in and getting between them and their patient.” And opposed a compromise on a ban on abortion after 15 or 16 weeks because “many of these cases are very complicated and often involve parents who really want to have children, but have extraordinary complications. This is an issue that should be left to women and their doctors.”
An Indian hospitality technology firm is set to buy Motel 6, the motel chain's parent company announced Friday.
