Democrats Panic as Top Senator Faces a
Close Race

Original Article

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

If ... and it is a big if ... Senate races in Wisconsin, Michigan and Virginia are in play as well as Virginia for Trump, I'm seeing an election much like 1980 Carter-Reagan. Tyrus (Gutfeld!) thinks it will be ovet by 10:05 Eastern on election night. I'm not ready to buy into this, but the early signals are there. Assuming , of course, that we all continue to work for an America First victory.

It is likely that the Republicans will take the Senate, but it is also likely that they will lose the House. Good for the Supreme Court, but a problem for President Trump come next January.

In a significant shift from his party, former Democratic Congressman Peter Deutsch, who served six terms in Florida’s 20th District, has publicly endorsed Donald Trump for president. Citing his growing concerns about the Biden administration’s foreign policy failures, Deutsch emphasized that global security is his top priority in the upcoming election. During a call organized by Trump’s campaign, Deutsch pointed to Biden and Harris’s handling of world conflicts, particularly their approach to the Hamas-Israel war and Iran, as reasons for his endorsement.

As RedState reported earlier, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis held a press briefing on Monday to discuss the state's preparations for Hurricane Milton, which is projected to hit the Sunshine State Wednesday night as a devastating Category 3 storm.Understandably, DeSantis wanted to provide assurances to residents that the state was doing everything it could ahead of the storm. Unfortunately, one of the so-called reporters decided to play politics during the briefing by pressing DeSantis over an anonymously sourced NBC News story that alleged he refused to take a call from Democrat presidential nominee Kamala Harris after Hurricane Helene hit.

Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) is refusing to take calls from Vice President Kamala Harris regarding storm recovery efforts, more than a week after Hurricane Helene ravaged parts of the state. And he has a very good reason for doing so. According to a source close to the situation, DeSantis has been avoiding the Democratic presidential nominee’s outreach because her calls “seemed political,” and the governor is focused on recovery, not campaigning. “Kamala was trying to reach out, and we didn’t answer,” a DeSantis aide told NBC News, emphasizing that DeSantis is committed to keeping the focus on helping Floridians, not engaging in political posturing. Instead, he's been communicating directly

Kamala Harris encountered some unexpected pushback during her 60 Minutes interview after being asked to explain her economic policies, causing her to fall flat on her face. As The Gateway Pundit reported, Harris, expecting an easy interview, sat down with host Bill Whitaker to discuss her campaign for President and her policies, which are unknown to many Americans. She began by uttering nonsensical remarks about the Middle East as all-out war threatens to break out in the region. “The work that we have done has resulted in a number of movements in that region by Israel that were very much prompted by, or a result of, many things, including

Vice President Kamala Harris repeated the left's claim Sunday that a woman in Georgia died due to delayed care as a result of the state's abortion limits, despite doctors previously denouncing the narrative as false. During an interview on the raunchy and often-sexually explicit "Call Her Daddy" podcast, host Alex Cooper asked Harris about the impact of the overturning of Roe v. Wade, blaming the death of Amber Nicole Thurman on the Supreme Court ruling and the state’s abortion limits after she received a chemically induced abortion in 2022.

Welp, the Trump-loathing crew of MSNBC's "Morning Joe" on Monday trotted out perhaps its most dire warning yet of what will happen to America should Donald Trump win the 2024 presidential election. Civil war. Yeah. Simpish co-host Joe Scarborough kicked off the festivities by sharing his TDS-riddled thoughts about Trump's triumphant speech at his Saturday rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, the site of the July 13 assassination attempt against the former president.Unsurprisingly, Scarborough's bilge was both condescending and demeaning to Trump supporters, as well as

The RNC appears to be doing nothing about election integrity concerns and election law violations in Arizona, where Democrats are gearing up for another rigged election following the obviously stolen 2020 and 2022 elections. One would think that after 60% of machines in the state’s largest county were programmed to fail in 2022, disenfranchising thousands of Republicans and stealing statewide elections, the RNC would ramp up efforts to ensure Arizona’s elections are fair in 2024. Last month, it was revealed that the state had failed to verify the citizenship of 218,000 registered voters.

In 2005, in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina wrecking Louisiana and neighboring states, Democrats (and media allies) pounced on George W. Bush for his failures (real and fabricated) in Katrina’s aftermath. Hurricane Helene witnessed a predictable pattern. Biden stayed at the beach; Kamala pretended to be on the phone; and Trump characteristically flew in with supplies, organized a charity drive, and convinced Elon Musk to rush in 500 Starlink internet terminals, followed by FEMA blocking Musk’s and everyone else’s efforts. Blocking Starlink is essential to concealing FEMA’s perfidy. Success will be measured by how many Republicans can be kept from voting.

Nearly two dozen Democrats warned Vice President Kamala Harris in a Politico article over the weekend her relaxed campaign strategy could hurt her chances of defeating former President Donald Trump. With few days left on the 2024 campaign trail, Harris has opted to spend time rubbing shoulders with California elites and traveling for friendly interviews in Manhattan instead of focusing her time in swing states. Harris has not sat for many local interviews in battleground states, and she has mostly avoided the national press and conducted zero press conferences.

BUTLER, Pennsylvania — Former President Donald Trump made a triumphant return to Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday where he was greeted by a massive crowd of supporters at the same site where he survived an assassination attempt less than three months ago. After asking rallygoers what they would say if they could speak directly to Trump, many of them had just two words: “Thank you.” Breitbart News spoke to several rally attendees, the first of whom were seen camping out Friday night near the entrance to the Butler Farm Show, vying to catch a spot close to the stage for Trump’s speech.

The art of the traditional signature is becoming a thing of the past thanks to the rise of online contracts, e-signatures and PIN numbers.

And that matches what teachers are seeing.

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.

The better Israel does in its ongoing retaliation against Iran and its terrorist proxies, the more it seems as if their supposed allies have lined up to thwart their efforts in every fashion imaginable. The latest to join the parade was French President Emmanuel Macron who is no longer willing to settle for Israel "showing restraint" against Lebanon and other targets. Yesterday, on a French radio program, Macron urged a return to "a political solution" to the ongoing dispute. He clarified what he meant, saying that the West should end arms deliveries to Israel for use in Gaza. The response from Prime Minister Netanyahu was rapid

NBC News chief Washington correspondent Andrea Mitchell said Sunday on “Meet the Press” that Vice President Kamala Harris has to “double down” on doing serious interviews because she is not polling well with male voters. Mitchell said, “They have to double down on doing more interviews and serious interviews because what I’m hearing from Democratic and Republican business people and a lot of men. She has such a big problem with men. I think there’s an undercount of the Trump vote. I think there’s misogyny in all of this, black and white men, big problem.”

We should be used to the idea by now that the Biden administration does not exist in the same time frame of the universe as the rest of us. You might recall the $7.5 billion set aside in the 2021 Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act to build 500,000 EV charging stations across the country. As of June, exactly eight charging stations had been built. Amazingly, in that same Act, Congress authorized the Commerce Department to create an "Internet For All" scheme, which was supposed to bring broadband internet to everyone in America at an affordable price by 2030.

On Friday, the Arizona Supreme Court ruled that votes cast for a pro-ranked-choice voting constitutional amendment in the 2024 election will count — even though nearly 38,000 signatures supporting the amendment proposal were duplicates. In its decision, the Grand Canyon State’s high court rejected a challenge seeking to have votes cast for Proposition 140 voided after a lower court special master disclosed that 37,657 pairs of signatures gathered in support of the measure were duplicates. As previously argued by the Arizona Free Enterprise Club (AZFEC), the finding “place[s] Proposition 140 thousands of signatures under the constitutionally required signature threshold to qualify for the [November] ballot.”

A FEMA disaster preparedness meeting about 'focusing efforts on LGBTQIA+' victims has resurfaced following the agency's response to Hurricane Helene. In a virtual meeting from March 2023, FEMA Emergency Management Specialist Tyler Atkins alarmingly said the agency was prioritizing LGBTQ people because they are 'already disadvantaged.' 'They already have their own things to deal with. So you add a disaster on top of that, it’s just compounding on itself,' Atkins, who uses he/they pronouns, told the panel. It comes as FEMA has faced mounting backlash in the weeks since Hurricane Helene tore through the southeast and killed at least 227 people,

Columbia University saw donations at its annual fundraiser drop nearly 29% after the spate of anti-Israel protests on campus earlier this year. The annual “Giving Day” event brought in $21.4 million in 2024, compared to $30 million in 2022, the last time the event was held, according to campus newspaper Columbia Spectator. Giving Day was postponed in 2023 due to the Oct. 7 Hamas attack and the ensuing protests. The Ivy League university also saw a nearly 28% drop in the number of gifts, falling from 19,229 in 2022 to 13,870, the lowest since 2015, the paper said.

Family members hugged pictures printed on poster board, some collapsing into them in tears as search helicopters flew overhead in the direction of the hills. Days after six workers at a plastics factory disappeared under surging floodwaters caused by Hurricane Helene, loved ones and supporters have been gathering for vigils in front of churches, a high school and a grocery store to honor them. Most nights, prayers in Spanish are spoken over rosary beads: “Mary, mother of Jesus, intercede and help us find them.”
