As the nation’s southeast continues to recover from Hurricane Helene’s deadly aftermath, another storm is headed to Florida, and it’s expected to become a Category 4 before hitting Florida this week.Officials in the Sunshine State are sounding the alarms:
Millions of people across the Florida Peninsula are on alert as Hurricane Milton is rapidly intensifying in the Gulf of Mexico while it continues on a path toward the Sunshine State. The hurricane is expected to reach Category 4 status before bringing a potentially life-threatening storm surge, damaging winds and torrential rain to the state this week.
Breitbart News’s Jon Kahn’s tribute song to former President Donald Trump, “Fighter,” received huge applause when it played during a Trump rally on Saturday in Butler, Pennsylvania, where the former president returned for the first time since the assassination attempt on his life there two months ago.
The song, which reached the #1 spot on iTunes across all charts within 24 hours of its release, was played on the jumbotron screen prior to Trump taking the stage.
The crowd of tens of thousands — gathered in the same field where Trump came within an inch of death last July — erupted into cheers when the song reached its crescendo and
Kamala Harris, one of the most incompetent politicians to rise in ranks (and that’s saying a lot) delivered a word salad about the Middle East as World War 3 looms.
Tensions are escalating in the Middle East as Israel prepares a ‘significant’ retaliatory strike to Iran’s missile strikes and Kamala Harris, the current Vice President who may get installed as the next US President, has no clue what she’s talking about.
Iran launched more than 200 missiles towards Israel last week.

President Trump received the endorsement of Wisconsin Sheriffs at his rally in Juneau, WI, on Sunday. After all, what law enforcement agency would want to “defund police” Kamala Harris?
“Mr. President, I am proud to announce that all of these Sheriffs are among a very small amount of sheriffs and law enforcement across our country that support you,” Sheriff told President Trump.
“In Dodge County, in this 2024 election, there are zero drop boxes for the election. Our clerks are fantastic. We are gonna make sure that we have the best, most secure election in Dodge County history,” Sheriff said. Watch:

Fans of the hit podcast Call Her Daddy shredded Alex Cooper after she released her surprise interview with Vice President Kamala Harris Sunday.
The vice president, who has been subject to intense criticism for her lack of interviews, follows up her appearance on the NBA-themed All The Smoke with an appearance on Alex Cooper's wildly-popular chat show.
The show's Instagram account posted a brief tease of the interview, which dropped Sunday morning, and was met with anger from many of the show's 'Daddy Gang' listeners over the 'softball' questioning and making the show political.

Hollywood-controlled media are rolling out the red carpet for Kamala Harris this week, welcoming the Democrat presidential candidate to a range of friendly media appearances as part of a planned offensive to enhance her likeability in the final stretch of the election cycle.
Kamala Harris is set to appear on ABC’s The View, where hosts including Joy Behar and Whoopi Goldberg have regularly sung her praises; CBS’ late-night show with Stephen Colbert, another ally; and Howard Stern, who recently called Trump supporters “stupid.” The aforementioned shows are all known for their soft-ball questions when it comes to Democrat politicians,
Democrats are losing ground not only in the presidential race but also in Senate races, and the party is spiraling.
As the race in Wisconsin closes in, top Democrat senator Tammy Baldwin is losing momentum in the state. Historically, the state was a safe bet for Democrats. However, much like Nevada and Arizona, a red wave might be on the forecast. An Axios report shows Baldwin’s lead in public and internal polls has diminished. At the same time, Republicans are pouring money into Wisconsin, hoping to pull off a win. This will determine who controls Congress in November. Baldwin is on track to lose her seat to GOP
On Saturday, President Trump returned to Butler, PA, after a failed assassination attempt that took place on July 13, 2024.
He was given a hero’s welcome by the estimated 50,000 to 100,000 people in the crowd.
Just before the rally began, the Trump campaign released a powerful new ad.
As disturbing images of the assassination attempt scroll by, a narrator says, “There are some moments in history that are forever seared into our hearts. Moments when time stops, when joy is shattered by pure terror over good and our pride turns to mourning all in an instant.”
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz (D) said over the weekend that he does not believe that anyone cares about the numerous lies that he has been caught telling.
Walz made the remarks during a “Fox News Sunday” interview with host Shannon Bream when confronted over numerous lies he’s told that have been exposed since he became Vice President Kamala Harris’ vice presidential running mate.
Walz has claimed that his lies were nothing more than him making “misstatements.”
“You’ve modified your story or explained that you misspoke about things involving your military rank, about carrying a weapon in war, your 1995 DUI arrest,
Speaker Mike Johnson clashed with ABC News anchor George Stephanopoulos over rhetoric by some of former President Donald Trump’s allies blaming Democrats for the recent assassination attempts.
Johnson (R-La.), 52, reiterated his longstanding call to “turn the rhetoric down,” but refused to denounce comments from Eric Trump and others faulting Democrats for the attempts against his father’s life.
“I don’t know the context,” Johnson pushed back after Stephanopoulos, 63, played a clip of the Trump Organization executive’s remarks during the Butler, Pa. rally Saturday.

Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg shed light on the call between him and SpaceX founder Elon Musk last week to clear the air on the tech guru’s public complaints that the government was hamstringing his company from helping Hurricane Helene victims.
Musk, 53, had taken to X, with allegations that the Federal Aviation Agency was blocking flights into storm-ravaged parts of North Carolina, prompting a response from Buttigieg, 42, who told the billionaire to give him a ring.
“He took me up on that. He called. We had a conversation. What we found out was actually happening was the FAA was not closing down any airspace,” Buggieg recalled
Vice President Kamala Harris declined to say Sunday whether Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is a reliable ally, in a clip released by CBS News’ 60 Minutes.
Harris was presented with a series of controversial (but effective) wartime decisions made by Netanyahu against the express public demands of the Biden administration, then asked whether the U.S. still has any “sway” over Netanyahu. Harris was not clear in her reply, calling diplomatic relations with Israel an “ongoing pursuit.” (X Video) “Do we have a real close ally in Prime Minister Netanyahu?” the interviewer persisted.

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
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.

The swing state of Pennsylvania’s voter registration system will be closed on the night of former President Donald Trump’s return rally in Butler, the site of the July 13 assassination attempt against him. The Republican nominee announced Sept. 25 that he is holding another rally in Butler on Oct. 5, just three months after a gunman shot the former president at a rally there, wounding him in the ear. “This website will undergo scheduled system maintenance and be unavailable Saturday, October 5th 10 p.m. until October 6th 4 a.m,” the Pennsylvania Voter Registration website says. “We thank you for your

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.

Gov. Tim Walz (D-Minn.), the Democratic vice presidential nominee, will join Fox News Sunday for his first solo interview on Oct. 6 at 2:00 p.m. according to a Saturday announcement.
The outlet said Shannon Bream will ask him about the state of the race, the September vice presidential debate and other news of the day. Walz has come under attention recently from some in the media for not doing more appearances.
“I’m bewildered a little bit by the absence of both the presidential candidate and the vice presidential candidate on television since they became the nominees,” CNN’s Jake Tapper said o ahead of the vice presidential debate earlier this week.
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.
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.
Democratic vice presidential hopeful Tim Walz fessed up to making numerous false statements, but implied that voters aren’t too concerned about his “misspeaking.”
When confronted about his various fibs ranging from being in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square massacre to his wife’s reproductive assistance and more, Walz argued that sometimes he gets tripped up by his passion.
“I think they heard me the other night speaking passionately about gun violence and misspeaking,” Walz told “Fox News Sunday,” alluding to how he flubbed an answer during the VP debate and sputtered out the unfortunate turn-of-phrase, “I’ve become friends with school shooters.”

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.
