Debate revealed Tim Walz to be a fraud
‘everyman’ — and a lightweight
Posted By: Moritz55, 10/4/2024 4:14:20 AM
If Donald Trump wins this election, the postmortems on Kamala Harris’ campaign should put her choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate at the top of her list of mistakes. Much of America got to know Walz for the first time during Tuesday’s vice-presidential debate. Unlike his appearance at the Democratic National Convention, the Walz we saw on the debate stage didn’t have his words written for him in a teleprompter. And the unfiltered version underscored a very obvious fact about the governor: He is patently fake. For starters, how about this “Coach Walz” nonsense, which he broached yet again on Tuesday.

Israel a ‘disgrace’ 4 replies
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu slammed French President Emmanuel Macron and other Western leaders on Saturday who he said had called for an arms embargo on Israel over its airstrikes against Hamas in Gaza. "As Israel fights the forces of barbarism led by Iran, all civilized countries should be standing firmly by Israel’s side, yet President Macron and other western leaders are now calling for arms embargoes against Israel. Shame on them,” Netanyahu said in a statement.
He continued, "Is Iran imposing an arms embargo on Hezbollah, on the Houthis, on Hamas and on its other proxies? Of course not.
Dead heat gets even hotter for Harris
7 replies
A dead heat is getting even hotter for Kamala Harris. To see it, you can look at the slightly tightening polls; to appreciate you must look inside them. However, to fully understand it, you must look at what Harris did last week: she visited the southern border, she gave an economic speech and she held another softball interview. For a campaign centered on not saying anything, Harris’ playing to her weaknesses says a lot.
The polls say the race is tightening slightly. According to RealClearPolitics’ Sept. 29 average of national polling in a two-way race, Harris leads Trump 49.1 percent to 47.1 percent.

reveals devastating details of Biden-Harris
border disaster 7 replies
When describing the Biden-Harris administration’s policy of allowing millions of illegal border crossers to stay in the United States, it’s absolutely critical to use the word “unvetted.” What government official would let so many people who entered the country illegally remain in the U.S. without even knowing who they are? That would be crazy. And yet that is exactly what the Biden-Harris administration has done for nearly four years. And by the way, administration officials don’t want you to know how often they have done it.
Ohio Sen. JD Vance, as anticipated, easily won the vice-presidential debate Tuesday, October 1, on demeanor, facts, and analysis. But in fairness to a sometimes herky-jerky and nervous Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, he had the harder task of defending the temporary pseudo-conservative make-over of Democratic presidential nominee Vice President Kamala Harris. His additional burdens were her co-culpability for the last three-and-a-half-years of the Biden disaster, and her unwillingness to implement her supposedly "change" agenda in the last months of her vice-presidential tenure.
The CBS News moderators, Nora O’Donnell, and, especially, Margaret Brennan, also as expected, ganged up on Vance.
Tim Walz has a problem misspeaking.
Since being tapped as Kamala Harris’ running mate, the folksy, plain-speaking Minnesota governor has had to explain a growing number of inaccurate statements — and at times embellishments — about his past. They range from comments about his military service to his visit to Hong Kong more than three decades ago to clarifying that his family didn’t specifically use in vitro fertilization. It’s unclear whether Walz’s verbal errors will undercut his credibility with voters. But the need to continually clean up those claims could politically hurt Walz and Harris, who are locked in a tight race with Donald Trump and JD Vance.

Former National Institutes of Health employee Margaret Moore, accused by Republicans of helping others shield emails from the public, invoked her Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination at a deposition before the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic Friday. Moore, a former FOIA public liaison for the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), also declined to answer questions from Fox News in the hallway before the committee meeting.
The committee on Monday issued a subpoena for Moore to appear. "Instead of using NIH’s FOIA office to provide the transparency and accountability that the American people deserve, it appears that ‘FOIA Lady’ Margaret Moore assisted efforts to evade

Democrats are warning Vice President Kamala Harris that she needs to ramp up her engagement with voters and the media or it could cost her the election. Harris is neck-and-neck with former President Trump in the 2024 race, according to national polls. While Harris and her running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, have stepped up their interviews in recent weeks, she has also faced criticism from media critics for being evasive, even in interviews with friendly liberal outlets like MSNBC.
"Ms. Harris responded to the fairly basic and predictable questions with roundabout responses that did not provide a substantive answer," The New York Times reported

Helene aftermath 13 replies
U.S. Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas' words have come back to haunt him as video from earlier this year touting the Federal Emergency Management Agency's (FEMA’s) preparedness before Hurricane Helene exposed shortcomings in the organization. Mayorkas this week warned that FEMA was running out of funds as hurricane season continued to slam the southeastern United States. The organization has enough funds to deal with the aftermath of Helene but would not have enough to "make it through the season."
This warning stands in stark contrast to previous comments Mayorkas made in the summer assuring that FEMA would be able to handle upcoming weather crises.
Elon Musk says he will "be there to support" Donald Trump on Saturday when the former president returns to Butler, Pennsylvania to hold a rally at the site where the first assassination attempt against him unfolded earlier this year. The Republican presidential nominee is slated to speak on Oct. 5 at the Butler Farm Show fairgrounds in the suburb north of Pittsburgh.
"I will be there to support!" Musk wrote on X late Thursday in response to an image Trump shared promoting the upcoming event.
When Joe Biden became president, the Middle East was calm. Now it is in the midst of a multifront war.
So quiet was the inheritance from the prior Trump administration that nearly three years later, on September 29, 2023 -- and just eight days before the October 7 Hamas massacre of Israelis -- Biden's national security advisor Jack Sullivan could still brag that "The Middle East region is quieter today than it has been in two decades."
So, what exactly happened to the inherited calm that led to the current nonstop chaos of the present?
Forgotten America in Crisis

The devastation Hurricane Helene has wrought on much of Appalachia—and Western North Carolina in particular—presents an unfortunate occasion to examine what the U.S. military is doing to secure the American way of life.
Unfortunately, the military’s dismal response so far shows that they are unwilling to provide for the American people at a time of dire need.
Days after Hurricane Helene, the Biden-Harris Administration finally activated up to 1,000 soldiers to support the delivery of food, water, and medicine to isolated communities. But these efforts are too little, too late.
If Donald Trump wins this election, the postmortems on Kamala Harris’ campaign should put her choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate at the top of her list of mistakes.

Aid to People Affected by ‘Crisis in Lebanon’ 30 replies
The United States announced that it would be providing $157 million in humanitarian aid to address the “crisis in Lebanon” and those who have been affected by it.
In a press release on Friday, U.S. Secretary of State Antony Blinken revealed that the “nearly $157 million” in humanitarian assistance would go towards addressing “new and existing needs to internally displaced persons and refugee populations” for communities in Lebanon.
“The United States will provide nearly $157 million in new U.S. humanitarian assistance to support populations affected by conflict in Lebanon and the region,” Blinken said
President Biden warned that the money for a disaster aid loan program used by survivors of Hurricane Helene and other calamities will soon dry up without intervention from Congress.
In a letter to the four congressional leaders on Friday, Mr. Biden said the Small Business Administration’s program is on the verge of going broke before Congress is slated to return after the Nov. 5 election.
The loans are a “critical lifeline” that act as the “largest source of Federal disaster recovery funds,” he said, adding that $1.2 billion is needed to refill the program’s coffers. Lawmakers are out of town until Nov. 12. “I warned the Congress

If it's Friday, then it stands to reason that there's going to be a Friday news dump. And the Biden administration didn't disappoint with its quiet announcement in the work week's waning hours, stating that it will end plans to provide a path to citizenship for the over 500,000 illegal aliens from four nations that it flew into the United States. Readers might remember the temporary pause in the program in August, after major fraudulent activities were exposed in the program's management, in part thanks to Elon Musk's bringing attention to the Daily Mail's story back in the spring.
North Carolina Hurricane Helene victims are furious at the government for, what they say, has abandoned them without proper resources or supplies. Even so, the storm has taken more than 200 lives and the feeder Al government’s response has been less than urgent. More than a week after the storm hit, North and South Carolina states continue to be isolated with hundreds being without power and lousy service, making it difficult to communicate outside of their community.
Democratic strategist James Carville griped Friday that the Democratic Party is continuously reported in a “negative light” as he clashed with CNN’s host Jake Tapper over Vice President Kamala Harris’ polls in a key swing state.
Polls between Harris and former President Donald Trump have tightened in key swing states, with Michigan becoming a concern for Democrats. While on “The Lead with Jake Tapper,” Carville called out Tapper and CNN’s senior data reporter Harry Enten, who had previously warned about Harris trailing in Michigan polls.

President Joe Biden again undermined Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign on Friday by tying her to their administration’s policy failures.
Biden’s comments are damaging to Harris because she has been trying to run away from a catch-22: She cannot campaign on policies to fix crime, inflation, and border security without undermining the Biden-Harris administration’s policies, but she must tout the administration’s policies to validate her record and candidacy.
Dolly Parton has pledged a $1 million donation to help Hurricane Helene victims after her home state of Tennessee was one of the six states affected.
On Friday, Oct. 3, the country music star and Pitman Center, Tenn. native, 78, traveled to a Walmart in Newport, Tenn., to announce that she and her East Tennessee businesses partnered with the retailer to help aid those affected.
In addition to Walmart increasing its commitment of $6 million to a $10 million donation to hurricane relief efforts, Parton will now donate $1 million to the Mountain Ways Foundation.
According to its website, the foundation is "committed to providing ongoing disaster relief,
In a landmark case, the top European Union court has ruled that all member states must recognise gender changes made in other countries within the bloc.
The European Court of Justice (ECJ), which serves as the supreme court of the European Union in matters of EU law, said this week that Romania had violated EU law by refusing to accept as valid a gender transition certificate obtained by Arian Mirzarafie-Ahi in Britain.
The case was spurred after Mirzarafie-Ahi had requested a new birth certificate in Romania, however, the local court demanded that Mirzarafie-Ahi go through a new gender recognition process in Romania rather than accepting the documents from Britain, The Telegraph reports.
Gang members brandishing automatic rifles stormed through a town in Haiti’s main breadbasket region, killing at least 70 and forcing over 6,000 to flee, causing widespread shock even in a country grown accustomed to outbreaks of violence.
More people were severely injured in the attack in the early hours of Thursday at Pont-Sonde, in the agricultural region of Artibonite in western Haiti. Gran Grif gang leader Luckson Elan took responsibility for the massacre, saying it was in retaliation for civilians remaining passive while police and vigilante groups killed his soldiers.
Hashem Safi Al-Din, who is the presumed successor of former Hezbollah secretary-general Hassan Nasrallah, was reportedly killed along with other senior officials in an Israeli strike in southern Beirut on Friday, an unnamed official told Sky News Arabia. Additionally, several high-ranking Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) officers were in the same location when the airstrike hit. One of them is believed to be Ismail Qaani, a Brigadier General in the IRGC and commander of its Quds Force.
A Lebanese security source told Sky News that the chances of anyone surviving the targeted strike were “almost zero.”
The Saudi news organization Al-Hadath had previously reported that Safieddine was dead on Saturday morning.
An Ohio court has referred to county prosecutors a criminal case brought by a citizens’ group against the Republican presidential and vice presidential candidates over their comments about Haitian immigrants but rejected the group’s call to issue arrest warrants or misdemeanor summons. Springfield officials said in a statement Saturday that the Clark County municipal court found no probable cause to issue warrants or summons on misdemeanor charges against former president Donald Trump and his running mate, Ohio Sen. JD Vance. “The matter was then referred to the Clark County prosecutor’s office for further investigation,” city officials said.

Hurricane Helene, which tore through the southeastern United States and took more than 185 lives, may also effect this year's presidential election.
The hurricane was the first catastrophe in US history to hit two crucial swing states - North Carolina and Georgia - within just six weeks of a presidential election, according to Politico.
It particularly devastated heavily Republican areas of the two states, giving Vice President Kamala Harris a potential edge over former President Donald Trump.
