Biden got 83 million votes. Do you think those ballots will just disappear? Expect more of the same.

Well, OK then. But, the biggest takeaway for me from the article is: "All this might be wrong." Don't let the polls influence whether or not you are going to vote. Assume they are wrong. Stay vigilant and vote. A Trump/Vance victory is a must, and so is control of the House. Otherwise, the Dems will start their phony hearings and file their annoying impeachment motions starting Day 1.

Harris began to decay from the first moment that she and the desperate democrats pushed Joe out. He hates her and so do we. By election time, her fan club will be crying.

Hubby and I have always voted on Election Day. We live in a pretty safe area for free and fair elections but this year we’re voting early - in person at the early voting location. Taking no chances on Election Day problems and there are sure to be a lot of them in certain areas of the country. Think violence and thugs trying to keep people away from the polls like they did in 2008 in Philadelphia. And worse.

At my online casinos, the odds have shifted big time toward Trump in the last week, including a decent jump yesterday. In the last few days, they have moved both PA and WI to the "leaning Trump" column. MI is trending that way. I would place more reliance on that than anything from biased pollsters. Despite the trends in the right direction, we all need to vote to make it happen, and save our country.

I don't think anything will keep US from voting. Too many realize what is at stake. Democrat voters are not enthusiastic about voting, but they weren't with biden either. Our side should be voting like crazy but thinking about what we will do if there's a steal.

Re #9. Mrs. Holliday and I just got back from early voting. A poll worker told me it looks like a record for early voting here. This is North Georgia and we go Republican normally so I don't know what this means. Good or bad? It may mean nothing but the Trump/Vance yard signs look to be 10 to one over Harris/Waltz.

Elon Musk has become a crucial donor towards Donald Trump's presidential campaign after he gave $75million to his pro-Trump super PAC over the past three months. The tech billionaire is hoping to trigger a 'red wave' in crucial swing state with the expectation that former President Trump could ride the wave back to the White House. America PAC, which was founded by Musk to focus on turning out voters in closely contested states, spent around $72million of those funds in the July-September period alone - according to disclosures filed to the Federal Election Commission

Growing up an observant Jew, no figure in modern religious history has played such a formidable role in my theological development than Rabbi Menachem Mendel Schneersohn of Chabad-Lubavitch. Be it his cultivation of leaders, radical empathy, or staunch principles in the face of an ever-evolving society, the Rebbe has consistently been a voice of moral reasoning, even long after his passing. The decision to mark the one year anniversary of the horrific October 7th Hamas attacks, which culminated in the largest massacre of Jews since the Holocaust, at the grave of Rabbi Schneersohn, was relatively simplistic.

You hear it from the Dems and the corrupt media all the time: MAGA white supremacists are out there daily, like boogeymen, waiting in the shadows to commit unspeakable violence on women, minorities, perhaps your pets—anything you can think of. Yet it was leftists who in 2020 rioted across the country and destroyed at least a billion dollars in property and caused the deaths of at least 25 Americans. But it’s those darn Neo-Nazi Trump fans that should keep us up at night. In a bid to keep that scary narrative alive, a group of pretend MAGA folks crashed a huge Trump boat parade in Florida on Sunday.

Suppose you Googled Donald Trump’s discussion with Bloomberg’s John Micklethwait at the Economic Club of Chicago today. In that case, you’ll see that everyone in the opposition press thought he crumbled at the forum. Kamala Harris was invited, but she declined, likely because she lacks the intelligence to engage in an economic discussion. We’re at a point where you know to think the opposite of whatever the establishment press writes about Donald Trump. Things got heated between Micklethwait and Trump, where the former hurled loaded questions at the former president, notably those about a peaceful transfer of power.

The world’s eyes are once again focused on the south of Lebanon, as the Israel Defense Forces continue their war against Hezbollah. The IDF took me into Lebanon Saturday to see firsthand some of what they have already found. The timing was important because the Israelis this week got caught in a battle of more than words with the United Nations “peacekeeping force” in the area. Five UN force members have been wounded in recent days. The IDF has taken responsibility for several of these accidental cases, although two days ago it was Hezbollah that hit a UN peacekeeper. Still, the fact is that ever since the 2006 war here ended,

We’ve seen so much malpractice from the corrupt media, especially since Donald Trump descended that golden escalator in 2015, that it’s hard to be surprised anymore. We’ve seen them bury the Hunter Biden laptop story right before an election, we saw them prattle on for years about a fake Russia Collusion narrative, and witnessed them lie endlessly about Joe Biden’s obvious mental decline. Still, CBS’ deceptive editing of Kamala Harris’ “60 Minutes” interview marks yet another low. As we reported, they issued two separate clips showing Kamala answering a question from interviewer Bill Whitaker—but her answer is different in each one. Clearly, then, one of those edits is a lie.

KISS. The age-old, sage advice to Keep It Simple, Stupid. With voting already underway, the Trump-Vance campaign has at its disposal a historically simple case to drop the KISS of death on Kamala Harris’ candidacy. Six numbers utterly disqualify the most inadequate, incompetent, ineffectual, insubstantial candidate ever put forward by a major party for the office of president of the United States of America. These numbers must be repeated, daily, by the two members of the Republican ticket and every imaginable surrogate between now and the final closing of the final polling place November 5.

Two Democratic primary challengers to Mayor Eric Adams capitalized on the chaos engulfing City Hall, hauling in more than $1 million each in campaign funds — including a donation from actress Scarlett Johansson, new filings show. City Comptroller Brad Lander raked in $1.5 million over the last three months, bringing the total in his 2025 mayoral campaign war chest to $4.5 million, according to fundraising figures released Friday — the first since stunning raids on high-level City Hall officials and Adams’ historic criminal indictment. The haul stands above that of other Adams challengers, with the next-highest coming from Scott Stringer — Lander’s predecessor as comptroller and a 2021 mayoral also-ran —

Hartman is yelling at a new recruit, then cuts to a clip of Navy Adm. Rachel Levine, the Biden-Harris administration’s assistant secretary for health for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS).

Vice President Kamala Harris on Wednesday will tout her GOP support in a bid to attract Trump-wary Republicans and independents in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, the most purplish of Philadelphia’s suburbs. More than 100 Republicans will join Ms. Harris at a rally in Upper Makefield, Pennsylvania, near the site where George Washington famously crossed the Delaware River. Later, she will try to hammer home her anti-Trump message to a conservative audience when she is interviewed on Fox News’ “Special Report with Bret Baier.” Among the Republicans who lay out why they are crossing party lines to back Ms. Harris in this year’s election are former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman,

Vice President Kamala Harris is adding to her recent “media blitz” that until now has included stops at mostly friendly news outlets, talk shows and podcasts (which the Democratic presidential nominee has still inexplicably managed to bomb). Yet, this week, she’s shaking things up and doing her first ever sit-down interview with Fox News. The interview will take place Wednesday with Fox News anchor Bret Baier. Baier has said that he won't treat Harris with kid gloves during their conversation, and that any editing of the interview will only be for “timing” and that “no topic is off the table.” Sounds promising.

Former President Bill Clinton had a bizarre moment while eulogizing the late Ethel Kennedy before a crowd of influential politicians and Kennedy family members. During his remarks at the Kennedy matriarch's funeral Wednesday afternoon in Washington, D.C., Clinton revealed to the crowd what he really thought of Robert Kennedy's widow. 'I thought your mother was the cat’s meow,' Bill said about the late 96-year-old. 'She would flirt with me in the most innocent ways,' he continued to cautious laughs from the audience. (Photo) The former president continued on, seemingly making another joke about how she had 11 children.

When the officer identified himself, she slammed it back shut. For the next three minutes, the policeman continued to knock, only for the 6ft 6in Wilson to open the door and charge him with a knife.

The closing argument has two parts. The closing argument is what kind of country do we want to be? What kind of people are we? Do we want to be divided? Do we want to be set into arguments with each other that we can’t agree on solving our problems? She is qualified to bring our country together and he is not.”

In a race too close for comfort, with everything on the line, Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) delivered a masterful debate performance on Wednesday night. Facing off against Rep.

Allred wasn't ready for primetime, contradicting himself at multiple points and walking right into numerous receipt-laden traps set by Cruz.

How refreshing it is to see the Democratic Party in full panic mode. Nothing is working and as a result, the entire and profoundly unsuccessful Obama-Biden interlude is stricken and faltering. In fairness to the voters, the country could not have voted Republican in 2008 after the disaster of President George W. Bush — the Iraqi war topped out by the financial collapse and panic traceable to President Clinton’s requirement that the financial markets be flooded with commercially unsustainable mortgages. There had to be a change, as there usually is after two terms of the same party, and Senator McCain was not a skilled national campaigner.
