Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brooklyn—The NYPD released surveillance images Monday of three men wanted for questioning in connection with the July shooting death of a 1-year-old boy. Davell Gardner was in his stroller at a family barbecue on July 12 when a bullet struck him in the stomach, police said. Three men were also injured. A 36-year-old man was shot in the right leg, a 35-year-old man was shot in the groin and a 27-year-old man was shot in the ankle. Gardner's father described the 22-month-old boy as a "loving and caring soul"
Covington Catholic high school student Nick Sandmann, who was viciously smeared by the establishment media and has won settlements from the Washington Post and CNN, will speak at the Republican National Convention (RNC), Trump campaign and RNC officials confirmed to Breitbart News exclusively. In addition to Sandmann, campaign and Convention officials confirmed to Breitbart News what the Washington Post reported previously, that the St. Louis couple Mark and Patricia McCloskey will speak at the RNC next week. In addition, Andrew Pollack—whose daughter Meadow was killed in the Parkland shooting
Hillary Clinton offered a lot of lessons to the Democrats that they just didn’t learn from.It’s hard not to notice certain parallels happening in the 2020 Presidential elections right now. President Donald Trump is once again up against an opponent who would drag the country down into a socialist hellscape and his most threatening opponent on the opposite team is a list of leftist cliche’s soaked in social justice.I think it’s fair to say at this point that Biden is hardly a threat to Trump. He spends most of the time hidden away by his handlers so as not to embarrass himself and the party any further.
President Trump said he intends to hold his younger brother Robert Trump’s funeral at the White House on Friday, telling reporters it would be “a great honor” to the late executive.
“We may do just a small service right here in the White House for my brother,” Trump said on the White House South Lawn on Monday after Robert died in Manhattan on Saturday at the age of 71.
“I think it would be a great honor to him. I think he’d be greatly honored. He loved our country. He loved our country so much. He would be so proud of what we were doing
Michelle Obama will make a personal plea for Joe Biden, describing the man she knows, as she keynotes the first night of the Democratic National Convention Monday. The former first lady's speech, which was pre-taped at the Obamas' Martha Vineyard home, is expected to be the second most-watched speech of the virtual convention, after Biden. It marks her first campaign appearance for her husband's vice president.'I know Joe,' she said in a clip of her addressed released by the party Monday afternoon.'He is a profoundly decent man guided by faith. He was a terrific vice president.
The coronavirus pandemic is grounding Joe Biden’s campaign.
The former vice president’s campaign team hasn’t booked any air travel, leaving no need to lease a plane to jet around the country for political rallies, Axios reported on Monday.
With many swing states limiting the sizes of public gatherings, the Biden campaign is betting that adhering to health guidelines paves a path to the presidency.
It also allows Biden, who will accept the Democratic presidential nomination at a convention being held virtually, to contrast himself with President Trump, who will be flying on Air Force One for campaign hangar rallies in Wisconsin, Minnesota and Arizona this week.
Gotta say: Democrats and their compliant media allies just seem to be phoning it in today as the Democratic National Convention starts as a virtual exercise. Meanwhile, President Donald Trump is actually in Wisconsin, that place that Democrats seem to have real difficulty getting to and wouldn’t win without.MSNBC’s Chuck Todd announced that Trump was counter-programming with campaigning while the Democrats were holding their virtual convention. But listen to how he handles it, without even a semblance of being fair or giving any time to what Trump is actually saying
Speaking from a Wisconsin tarmac in front of Air Force One Monday afternoon, President Donald Trump went after Democrat presidential candidate Joe Biden, Senator Kamala Harris, the left and the media on everything from taxes, to healthcare and continuing civil unrest. During his remarks, Trump gave Americans a clear choice for November. "Voters of Wisconsin face a simple choice, do you want to be ruled by the radical left mob or do you want to stand tall as free men and women in the greatest country on earth and keep it that way," Trump said. "Joe Biden is just a Trojan horse for socialism, he is, he's a Trojan horse.
Nearly half of Joe Biden’s backers said they plan to mail in a ballot for their candidate, while two-thirds of President Trump’s supporters plan to vote in person on Nov. 3, according to a poll released Monday.
Only 26 percent of Biden voters said they would do so in person at a polling place on Election Day, with 47 percent planning to mail their ballot and another 21 percent opting to cast a vote at an early in-person voting site, an NBC News/Wall Street Journal survey found.
In contrast, 66 percent of Trump voters will go to the polls in person and just 11 percent intend to vote by mail,
John Kasich is an enlightened convert to the cause of Joe Biden's presidential campaign. Or the former Ohio GOP governor is an apostate Republican.That's how some Democrats and most Republicans are likely to view Kasich's convention speech at the virtual Democratic National Convention Monday night.“I’m a lifelong Republican, but that attachment holds second place to my responsibility to my country. That’s why I’ve chosen to appear at this convention. In normal times, something like this would probably never happen, but these are not normal times," said Kasich, 68.
The four-day virtual Democratic National Convention kicks off Monday evening with a “We The People” theme. Featured speakers will include former first lady Michelle Obama, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn (D-SC), Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer, and former Republican Ohio Governor John Kasich.Stay tuned to Breitbart News for live updates throughout the evening ..All times eastern. 10:10 PM: Kasich, at a fork in the road, says America is at a crossroads. He says continuing to follow Trump’s path will be bad for America’s soul because he has pitted one against the other
The St. Louis couple who wielded firearms while Black Lives Matter protesters gathered outside their mansion will make an appearance at the Republican National Convention next week, a report said Monday.
Personal injury attorneys Mark and Patricia McCloskey are expected to express their support for President Trump during the virtual weeklong event, party officials told the Washington Post.
A spokesman for the convention declined to comment on the appearance to the Post.
The couple shot to nationwide attention in June when they were filmed pointing a handgun and an AK-47 at civil rights demonstrators moving through their swanky neighborhood.
Postmaster General Louis DeJoy has agreed to testify before Congress next week amid allegations from Democrats that he is undermining the cash-strapped US Postal Service ahead of the November election.
House Oversight Committee chairwoman Rep. Carolyn Maloney wrote to DeJoy on Sunday calling for an “urgent” hearing on cost-cutting changes at the USPS, sparking fears it could slow delivery and impinge on Americans’ ability to cast postal votes.
DeJoy, a Trump appointee who came into the role in May this year, agreed to appear before the committee on Monday, Aug. 24 at 10 a.m.
NEW YORK— Joe Biden introduced the breadth of his coalition to a divided America on Monday night, progressive Democrats joining conservative Republicans and a billionaire CEO to deliver an urgent appeal for voters to unite against President Donald Trump regardless of political ideology or party. Former first lady Michelle Obama vouched for Biden’s empathy and experience, while the extraordinary ideological range of Biden’s many messengers on the opening night of the 2020 Democratic National Convention was perhaps best demonstrated by former presidential contenders from opposing parties: Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, a self-described democratic socialist who championed a multi-trillion-dollar universal health care plan, and Ohio’s former Republican Gov. John Kasich,
An overwhelming majority of Americans say having Sen. Kamala Harris on the Democratic presidential ticket won’t make a difference in how they vote, a poll released Monday said.
Seventy-one percent of respondents said the California lawmaker won’t impact their choice, while 17 percent said her appearance makes them more likely to vote for the Democratic ticket and 10 percent said it makes them less likely to vote for the Democrats, according to an ABC News/Washington Post poll.
The survey, released on the first day of the Democratic National Convention, also shows that enthusiasm has been building for former Vice President Joe Biden,
Dozens of protesters, including suspected members of the anti-fascist group Antifa, rampaged through Williamsburg over the weekend, trashing several national chain stores and spraying anti-police graffiti, according to police and sources. The rowdy mob marched through the Brooklyn neighborhood late Saturday, with police first receiving a 911 call at 8:20 p.m. about vandalism at an Apple Store on Bedford Avenue, where they found broken windows and the letters “FTP”—typically meaning “F–k the police” in this context—spray-painted on the wall, cops said.(Snip) “The irony of it is you can clearly tell that everyone on the video is white,”
In a letter to her Democratic colleagues in Congress about President Trump's alleged manipulation of the U.S. Postal Service, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) falsely claims that "Social Security benefits" are delivered by mail. This is not true because, as the Social Security Administration states in its own literature, "If you get Social Security benefits, you must receive your payments electronically." In her Aug. 16 letter, which is posted as a press release on her website, Pelosi states, "The Postal Service is a pillar of our democracy, enshrined in the Constitution and essential for providing critical services: delivering prescriptions, Social Security benefits, paychecks, tax returns and

Presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden has avoided answering questions from the press but was happy to make time for an interview with rapper Cardi B. Biden, who was criticized last week by Fox News host Chris Wallace for his “basement strategy,” spoke with the “WAP” singer about campaign issues and her dislike of President Donald Trump during an interview for Elle magazine’s September 2020 issue.(Video) “Oh, snap. Is this real?” the 27-year-old Bronx native quipped at the beginning of the interview that covered topics ranging from healthcare, free education and “equity” along with racism in America.The former vice president, who insisted that Cardi B call him “Joe,”
The Trump administration is about to achieve what many see as its long-held objective of bringing the U.S. legal immigration system to a halt. While the administration would not be allowed to stop processing immigration applications without incurring legal action, critics say that through policy choices and mismanagement of U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services (USCIS) it may accomplish the same goal. “The federal agency tasked with offering citizenship, green cards and visas to immigrants is planning to furlough about two-thirds of its workers at the end of the month after Congress failed to reach a deal on a coronavirus stimulus package,”(snip)Immigration Services notified about 13,400 of its 20,000 employees
Aug. 17 (UPI) -- President Donald Trump on Monday approved Iowa Gov. Kim Reynolds' request for a major disaster declaration after a powerful derecho tore through the state last week.
Reynolds requested nearly $4 billion in federal aid Sunday to help the state recover from the storm that tore through the Midwest United States, leaving hundreds of thousands of Iowans without power and damaging millions of acres of crops.
"From cities to farms, Iowans are hurting,
A recent Instagram chat (pretty hip!) between Joe Biden and his President-in-Waiting, Kamala Harris, was filmed by the networks at Democratic Campaign Headquarters, otherwise known as Joe’s basement.
Alert viewers of the footage (which of course does not include any modern journalists) noticed two things. One, Joe was holding his iPhone upside down. Two, Joe had a set of talking points in front of him in about 40-point font.
I have now examined the footage carefully and found between the lines of the talking points the entire Democratic Platform. In an exclusive from the Aspen Beat, here it is.
Temperatures in Death Valley, California, reached 130 degrees Fahrenheit on Sunday, as local utilities barely managed to maintain power to the state in the midst of a heat wave. The 130º reading is one of the highest temperatures ever recorded at the site — and the hottest temperature recorded on earth since 1913. The National Weather Service tweeted: “Per the climate data in xmACIS2, this is the first time since 1913 that Death Valley has reached 130F. In July 2013, it last reached 129F. If valid, it would be the hottest August temperature at the site by 3F.” (Tweet)
As other polls show that President Trump is climbing back into the race and threatening prospective Democratic presidential candidate Joe Biden’s lead, a new poll conducted by YouGov finds that Trump has opened a 7-point lead over Biden in the state of Texas.“The YouGov poll, commissioned by Texas Hispanic Policy Foundation and Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy, surveyed 846 registered voters in Texas from August 4-13. Trump had a 7-point lead over Biden, 47.5% to 40.5%, among all voters surveyed and a 5-point lead among most-likely voters, 49.4% to 44.1%,” KXAN reported, adding, “Before the release of the most recent YouGov poll,
President Donald Trump on Monday met with Minneapolis business owners affected by the destructive riots in the name of George Floyd.The president criticized former Vice President Joe Biden’s running mate Sen. Kamala Harris for asking for donations to help bail out the rioters who had been arrested for violence and looting.“Their sympathies lie with lawbreakers and with criminals, my heart is with law-abiding, hard-working Americans like these people,” Trump said. “And my heart is also with the great men and women of law enforcement.”The president tore into local Democrats for failing business owners by allowing riots and looting to continue in the city in the name of George Floyd.
Left-wing politicos erupted with outrage on Monday over conservative talk show host Rush Limbaugh allegedly calling Democratic vice presidential-pick Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) a “h*.” (Tweets) However, despite the viral posts, Mr. Limbaugh never characterized the Democrat as such.Instead, Limbaugh noted that a freelance photographer contracted with the NBA was recently canned for sharing a meme that referred to Harris as a “ho,” referring to former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown “promoting” his past adulterous relationship with Harris and boasting that he helped boost her career.“I have two stories about Kamala Harris,” Limbaugh said Friday.
Just north of the Golden Gate Bridge, yet a world away from San Francisco, in an unincorporated and oft-overlooked area known as Marin City, sea level rise is rarely the first worry that comes to mind. Traditional flood maps for this predominantly Black and working-class community suggest that the area is safe until the sea-level rise reaches three feet or more. But sea level rise is a lot more complicated than just waves breaking over seawalls and beaches disappearing. Imagine the groundwater beneath your feet. As the ocean moves inland, it will push all this trapped water upward until it breaks the surface.
A Minnesota House candidate endorsed by Gov. Tim Walz and Rep. Ilhan Omar was captured screaming profanities at a Black Lives Matter protest outside of the home of Minneapolis police union President Bob Kroll on Saturday.
John Thompson, who last week won his primary for House District 67A in St. Paul, later apologized for his “inflammatory rhetoric” after he was seen in two videos wearing a “Bob KKKroll Must Go!” T-shirt and delivering a profane rant about White people as more than 100 people gathered outside Mr. Kroll’s home in Hugo, the Star Tribune reported. “You all got the grand wizard living
Joe Biden and his wife Jill have lied to the world for more than 40 years about how they started dating — they actually had an affair that broke up her first marriage, her first husband claims. And the whole story the Bidens tell about how the presidential candidate fell in love with Jill after a blind date is completely made up, Bill Stevenson told DailyMail.com in an exclusive interview. Now Stevenson is about to publish a book that he says will blow the lid off the sham story.
Last week President Trump announced a peace deal in the Middle East between Israel and the United Arab Emirates (UAE). Experts have widely praised the first Middle East peace deal in decades while the Obama gang, Democrats, Turkey and Iran hate it.
The historic peace treaty was signed this week. Reuters reported that phone lines opened between Israel and the UAE soon after the agreement was signed:
The UAE and Israeli foreign ministers held their first publicly-acknowledged call on Sunday after the Gulf state opened telephone lines to Israel as part of a normalisation of ties.
Middle East expert John Carafano also praised the President’s efforts:
SACRAMENTO — Maybe you’ve noticed: Gov. Gavin Newsom no longer looks like a promising future presidential prospect. He has been leaped over and left behind by a California ally, Sen. Kamala Harris.
Since Newsom was elected governor in 2018, the expectation has been that he would seize the first opportunity after this year to run for president.
Newsom, 52, wasn’t ready this year. But if President Trump won reelection, the Oval Office would be open in 2024. And if a Democrat ousted Trump, there’d be another opportunity in 2028.
Seattle—Two people were arrested and four officers were injured Saturday afternoon at Cal Anderson Park, according to a blotter post. Police said they responded around 4:30 p.m. to reports of a man breaking windows near 11th Avenue and East Olive Street. Officers responded and found the man in the park. When officers tried to talk to him, a crowd surrounded them as they took the suspect out of the park, according to a blotter post. Police said the suspect then collapsed on the ground. Medical aid was brought to the scene. While medics were assisting the man, a different man, who police
A couple years ago, I was struck by a long article that ran in Chicago Magazine in 2011, describing how Chicago's Democratic politicians are working hand in glove with Chicago's gangs. The fact that the police could never touch them based on their connections to Democratic political power was why Chicago's violence was so high. (Snip)
The 2011 Chicago Magazine article(Snip) entitled "Gangs and Politicians in Chicago: An Unholy Alliance," described how gangs and Democrats offered protection to one another. Gangs performed the muscle tasks to bring in votes once done by political machines and supplied Democratic pols with drugs on the side, while politicians gave gangs complete immunity

Not according to James Altucher, a best-selling author and former hedge-fund manager (and a former MarketWatch columnist), who says that New York City is “dead forever” as its residents come to grips with the reality of the coronavirus pandemic and what it means for the fate of the Big Apple.
“I love NYC. When I first moved to NYC, it was a dream come true. Every corner was like a theater production happening right in front of me. So much personality, so many stories,” he wrote in a blog post explaining why his temporary relocation might become more permanent.
The Tennessee Department of Education has withdrawn a $1 million initiative to conduct well-being checks for all children in Tennessee from birth to age 18 after the program sparked uproar this week, with critics calling it a big-brother government overreach.Gov. Bill Lee and Education Commissioner Dr. Penny Schwinn released the Child Wellbeing Check Toolkit during a news conference Tuesday. As originally published, the initiative recommended well-being checks for all children in the state to verify well-being as school closures have left gaps for nutrition, health, and abuse reporting services amid the coronavirus pandemic. Guidelines for the initiative were a collaborative effort of the 38-member
Joe Biden has thrown his support behind free health insurance and college, saying in an Elle magazine interview with rap star Cardi B that “there’s no reason why we can’t have all of that.” And who will foot the bill? Taxpayers, of course, with the presidential candidate saying that “no corporation should pay less than 15 percent tax.”
Biden made his remarks in response to Cardi B’s wish list for what she wants from the winner of November’s presidential election. “I have a whole list of things that I want our next president to do for us,” the 27-year-old, anti-Trump rapper said. “What I want is free Medicare.
President Trump on Monday ripped Mayor Bill de Blasio as a “communist” and a “fool” who’s transformed the Big Apple into a lawless city of homelessness and violent crime. “He’s a socialist, communist, maybe he’s a fool,” the president said in an interview on “Fox & Friends.” “He got rid of some of the most talented policemen that there are in the world. And that includes looking for very bad things beyond New York.” Trump pointed to the surge in gun violence the city has grappled with since the NYPD dismantled its anti-crime unit.(Snip) “Look at the shootings,” Trump continued. “When I left New York
As the pandemic grinds on, the Big Three broadcast evening newscasts are among the highest rated programs on television today — and that means millions of viewers are witnessing the most biased presidential campaign coverage in modern media history. I’ve been studying the news media and elections for more than 35 years. Trust me — there’s never been anything like it.A new MRC analysis of all evening news coverage of President Donald Trump and former Vice President Joe Biden in June and July found these networks chose to aim most of their attention and nearly all of their negative coverage on Trump
Early voting has just ended in Florida and election day is on Tuesday, August 18th, but that hasn’t stopped CBS12 in Palm Beach County, Florida from posting their election results in the 2020 primary election. President Donald Trump and Republicans have warned of voter fraud and voter suppression in the 2020 presidential election, so could CBS12 pre-election day, election results be a sampling of what is to come in the coming months? How can CBS12 be reporting the election results before election day? Or better yet, why is CBS12 reporting 100% precincts reporting 48 hours before the polls even open.
The Democrat Party is sending out ballots to the members abroad and blatantly claiming it’s okay to send in two ballots. In a memo to fellow Democrats, the organization labeled DemocratsAbroad.org is encouraging Democrats to vote more than once in the upcoming election.

A South Florida CBS affiliate, CBS 12, posted the primary election results for over a half-dozen races last night to their website, days before the final votes are to be counted. Florida’s final absentee ballots and in-person election day voting occurs on Tuesday from 7am to 7pm. Despite this, congressional candidate Laura Loomer, who is running in the Republican primary to take on far-left career politician Lois Frankel, found herself shocked to see that 100% of precincts reporting their tallies late Sunday night.
Six protesters have been arrested after a George Washington statue in Los Angeles was defaced and torn down during protests last week.

In a Sunday interview on Fox News Channel’s “The Next Revolution,” Breitbart News senior contributor and Government Accountability Institute President Peter Schweizer discussed Sen. Kamala Harris (D-CA) as presumptive 2020 Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden’s running mate.
Schweizer, author of “Profiles in Corruption: Abuse of Power by America’s Progressive Elite,” said he believed Biden selected Harris based on her fundraising ability, but explained she has a “deeply troubling” way of raising money that is related to not prosecuting certain sexual abuse cases involving rich and powerful families and lawyers representing the Catholic schools in the crosshairs of investigations.

Democrats have spent several days flogging the false “mailbox conspiracy” theory that President Donald Trump is deliberately crippling the U.S. Postal Service so that it cannot handle votes by mail in November — even forcing it to remove mailboxes.
The truth is that the mailboxes were removed because mailboxes are always being removed. About 14,000 were removed during the Obama-Biden administration. Democrats are creating a new hysteria to cast Trump as a tyrant and motivate their conspiracy-theory-addled voters.
Former Vice President Joe Biden has enthusiastically inflamed this phony conspiracy theory

I write this under an Attic sun reflecting from the marbles of the Acropolis and into my living room. This was once the center of Western civilization, its stem just hundreds of feet from where I’m standing. Individual liberty and democracy first flourished right here, when 300 Spartans gladly went to their inevitable death against as many as 100,000 Persians in order to preserve free thought. Because of their sacrifice and those of many others following their example, fifty-some-odd centuries of triumph and tragedy have created a rich historical and cultural heritage that has indelibly stamped its imprint on the way Greeks think. No modern state believes so strongly
A New York Times reporter who won a Pulitzer Prize for his role perpetrating the Russia collusion hoax was tasked with framing the news that a former top FBI lawyer was to plead guilty to deliberately fabricating evidence against a Donald Trump campaign affiliate targeted in the Russia probe. The resulting article is a case study in how to write propaganda.

Perhaps 70 percent of Trumpism remains a hodgepodge of Reaganism: strong defense, realist foreign policy, deregulation, smaller government, big deficits, tax cuts, energy growth, and stars-and-stripes traditionalism.
But it is the other unorthodox 30 percent that excited his base, terrified conservative apostates, and won Trump the 2016 election by energizing between 4 million and 6 million voters in swing states who had either given up on Republicans, or on elections altogether. NeverTrumpers talk of Trump’s demise and their own resurrection as Phoenixes to rebirth the GOP. They have no idea that those who despise them had ensured their Beltway-preferred candidates could rarely win; nothing has changed since.
The California Senate is considering legislation to use taxpayer funds to pay for hormone blockers and sex change operations for minors. The bill, after passing the Senate Health Committee by a 7-1 vote last week, moves to the Senate Appropriation Committee and then the Senate floor before the end of the month. As noted by health experts, the use of cross-sex hormones and surgeries for adolescents would permanently destroy their reproductive systems, a fact which bill backers seem inclined to ignore. AB 2218 initially asked for $15 million to start the fund. It passed the State Assembly with little debate.
A mob of Portland Black Lives Matter and Antifa militants forced a white man to crash his truck, then punched and kicked him unconscious, disturbing footage shows. A series of clips on social media shows the victim being surrounded in his white truck at 10:30 p.m. Sunday as others attacked his wife, who was punched and even tackled to the ground during the violent melee. “He didn’t do nothing!” someone could be heard calling as others punched the driver as he sat in his truck, which was also repeatedly kicked.

SEATTLE — In a sad scene of resignation a Seattle police officer told a person believed to be a BLM protester that he planned to resign due to the civil unrest and riots.
A video circulating on social media (see below) shows the unnamed officer drive up to a protester and have a short conversation.
“You having a good day today?” says the officer through his passenger side window, which is rolled down.

Kim Jong-un has declared that pet dogs are a symbol of capitalist 'decadence' and ordered that dogs in Pyongyang be rounded up - and owners are fearful that their beloved pets are being used to solve the nation's food shortages.

President Trump, in a Monday morning interview with "Fox & Friends," said the U.S. is "never going to have a fair" presidential election if universal mail-in voting is widely allowed. Trump reacted to media pundits who discussed the possibility that he may refuse to leave office if he didn't accept the result of the presidential election. Trump warned the election may be tainted by fraud stemming from mail-in voting. "I have to tell you, that if you go with this universal mail-in ... tens of millions of ballots being sent to everybody and their dogs, dogs are getting them okay, people that have been dead for 25 years are
With the media and the Democrats completely dedicated to fictional narratives, from Trump calling neo-Nazis “fine people” to the wacky conspiracy theory that Trump is sabotaging the US Postal Service in order to disenfranchise voters, the challenge facing the Trump campaign is letting truth annihilate propaganda.
I have long stressed that President Trump understands video narratives better than any other president in American history. He was the most successful reality television producer in the history of the medium (snip) We got an excellent preview of the developing mesages yesterday, thanks to Maria Bartiromo.
One of the key aspects of the Trump presidency has been his success at maintaining the vibrant and dynamic role of the office of the president. In John Yoo’s latest book “Defender in Chief,” he counters the narrative that President Trump challenges our constitutional order. On the contrary, Yoo explains, President Trump has been quite remarkable in promoting and protecting the presidency as an integral part of our federal system.
From its inception, our Constitution contemplated that the head of the federal government have the agility and flexibility to accomplish his agenda – one that had been presented to the public

Online trolls lost no time in mocking President Donald Trump in response to news that his younger brother, Robert Trump, died Saturday.“He was not just my brother, he was my best friend,” Trump said in a statement. “He will be greatly missed, but we will meet again.”“Almost immediately after, tweets calling for the president’s death were posted using the hashtag #wrongtrump, which quickly became the number four trending topic on the website,” the U.S. Sun reported.“Dear Grim Reaper, You took the #wrongtrump,” Twitter user @TalbertSwan wrote.The president visited his brother Robert at the hospital on Friday afternoon in New York City before returning to his club at Bedminster, New Jersey,

The news is filled with reports of President Trump's "assault" on the United States Postal Service. The president, Democrats and some in the media say, is deliberately slowing mail delivery and crippling the Postal Service so that it cannot handle an anticipated flood of voting by mail in the presidential election. Former President Barack Obama said Trump is trying to "actively kneecap" the Postal Service to suppress the vote.

In reading historian Paul Kengor’s stunning new book on the demonic roots of the socialist movement -- The Devil and Karl Marx – I came across one small section of the book that has the potential to deprogram the young Marxists in your life. (snip) what will trouble the clueless Marxists you might know -- and if they are not clueless, they are evil -- is Marx’s extravagant racism and anti-Semitism. The anti-Semitism I knew about. The racism I did not.
Making someone as extreme as Kamala Harris a president-in-waiting is a bone-chilling prospect. No conservative or moderate should support it.
I part company with some of my colleagues in that I don’t find Kamala Harris personally irritating. She’s attractive, youthful (she looks 15 years younger than her actual age, which is 55), and presentable. Her voice is neither a hectoring Midwestern drone (like Hillary Clinton’s) nor does it have the prissy professorial condescension of Elizabeth Warren’s. Her voice is fine, albeit a bit nasal.
It’s Harris’s policies that repel me. While I tend to view “Flight 93” thinking as hyperbolic, she does present a major threat to the constitutional order,

and jailed last Friday replies
New media reporter Millie Weaver is scheduled to have her first court hearing this morning after a weekend in jail following her arrest last Friday. Weaver’s arrest came on the eve of the release of her 82-minute documentary Shadow Gate that is an exposé of the Deep State with the assistance of two individuals identified as whistleblowers. Her arrest and incarceration in the Portage County Jail in Ravenna, Ohio immediately raised suspicions that she was being subjected to a scary new level of intimidation and censorship.
Millennial Millie, as Weaver is known, is a conservative rising star on the new and alternative media landscape
Two armed groups on opposing sides of the ideological divide squared off at Stone Mountain, Ga., on Saturday as right-wing militias and their allies stood face to face with Black Lives Matter and other left-wing radicals who had come to oppose them.
A militia group from Georgia wanted to demonstrate their support for the monument at Stone Mountain — the largest bas-relief carving in the world that depicts Confederate Generals Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee as well as Confederate President Jefferson Davis. Black Lives Matter was there to shout down the militias.
About Kevin Clinesmith

So far we have said nothing about Kevin Clinesmith’s guilty plea, which illustrates the fact that these days, the news is impossible to keep up with. Clinesmith, as you probably remember, was an FBI lawyer, an assistant general counsel assigned to the Bureau’s National Security and Cyber Law branch in Washington. In that capacity, he supported FBI investigations, including Crossfire Hurricane. Clinesmith was instrumental in submitting some, at least, of the fraudulent FISA applications to spy on Carter Page.
Of all of the Obama administration loyalists who contributed to the Russia collusion hoax, Clinesmith is the one most obviously guilty of a felony:
If you are queasy about entrusting the U.S. Postal Service with a vastly expanded role in our electoral system in the midst of a crucial election, the following news will exacerbate your nausea. Last Friday, the National Association of Letter Carriers (NALC) followed the lead of the American Postal Workers Union (APWU) by endorsing presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden. Thus far, most objections to increasing the role of the USPS in the election process involve the inevitable logistical problems that will accompany a precipitous expansion of mail-in voting. The addition of overt partisanship among postal workers to inefficiency renders it obvious that the widespread expansion of vote-by-mail is dangerous.
Forty-nine people were shot over the course of 72 hours in NYC between Thursday and Saturday, compared to eight shooting victims over the same time period last year, according to preliminary NYPD statistics sent to Gothamist Sunday morning.
Eight people were murdered—at least six by gun violence—compared to three homicides last year over those three days.
Those numbers do not yet reflect shootings on Sunday.
But about 2 a.m. Sunday, a 47-year-old was fatally shot in the head near Parkside and Ocean Avenues in Brooklyn at the entrance of Prospect Park.
A new national poll released on the eve of the two major political party conventions indicates Democratic challenger Joe Biden with a smaller lead over President Trump than most other live telephone operator surveys show. The ticket of Biden and Sen. Kamala Harris of California – whom the former vice president and presumptive Democratic nominee named as his running mate last week - tops the ticket of Trump and Vice President Mike Pence 50%-46% among registered voters in a CNN survey conducted August 12-15. The 4-point advantage for the Democratic ticket is right at the poll’s margin of error of plus or minus 4 percentage points.
skydiver with two prosthetic legs jumped out of an airplane to carry a huge American flag down to the 80th Sturgis Motorcycle Rally in South Dakota over the weekend.
Sgt. 1st Class Dana Bowman, is a former Special Forces soldier and a member of the Army’s Golden Knights parachute team, which is also how he lost his legs. He suffered the injuries in a mid-air collision during a Golden Knights training incident that left a fellow skydiver dead.
According to the Defense Department, he was the first double-amputee to reenlist.
He has 4,000 jumps under his belt, many of them after the accident, according to Black Hills Fox, a South Dakota station.
House Speaker Nancy Pelosi suggested members could be brought back from August recess to address issues regarding the U.S. Postal Service, while urging Democrats to appear at their local post offices amid the battle to protect mail-in ballots for the 2020 presidential election.
Pelosi, D-Calif., on Sunday said the post office has become “Election Central” thanks to the coronavirus pandemic even as President Trump and Republicans have warned for months that universal mail-in ballots would cause widespread voter fraud in the election.
President Trump was greeted with rapturous applause from a small crowd of supporters as he returned to Washington, D.C. following the death of his younger brother, Robert. The Commander-in-chief, 74, touched down at the White House on Sunday evening with his wife Melania, 50, and their son Barron, 14, following a short flight from Bedminster, New Jersey. It was the first time the trio have appeared together in public since the coronavirus pandemic upended American life more than five months ago. The President appeared somber as he made his way off Marine One, giving a tentative wave to the group of well-wishers as he walked across the lawn.
A pro-Trump boat parade in Florida that is attempting to break a Guinness record reflects the “not-so-silent” majority that will enable the incumbent president to sail to reelection in November. That is the assessment of former Florida Attorney General Pam Bondi who serves as national co-chair of the Women for Trump organization. Speaking remotely to the Fox & Friends Weekend crew on Saturday, an enthusiastic Bondi expressed confidence that the gathering of MAGA boaters from all over the country could break the Guinness world record, which was set in Malaysia in 2014 with a total of 1,180 vessels.
