White House confirms it does NOT have

and got it through 'other sources' as
questions swirl over whether U.S. had
any foreign help

The White House revealed on Tuesday morning that it does not have DNA proof that Al Qaeda chief Ayman al-Zawahiri was killed in a drone strike in Kabul on Sunday. Instead, spokesman John Kirby said officials used multiple sources and pieces of evidence to establish that Osama Bin Laden's successor was dead. It comes as officials are under pressure to release more details about the strike, including where the U.S. drones flew from and any foreign assistance they had in taking out one of the world's most wanted men.

Results are still pending in Arizona’s Republican gubernatorial primary, though former Fox 10 Phoenix anchor Kari Lake leads her opponent Karrin Taylor Robson. It is unclear when a winner could be declared.
Lake, backed by former President Donald J. Trump, holds a more than 11,300 vote lead over Robson with 80 percent reporting, the Associated Press election results compiled by the New York Times show. Lake has 294,260 votes versus Robson’s 282,936. In a tweet, Dave Wasserman of the Cook Report suggested Lake will come away with the nomination, though only one county is reporting more than 95 percent of its votes.
The State Department has just approved a massive missile sale and related equipment to Saudi Arabia for a whopping total of $3.05 billion. So how many missiles are we talking, exactly? Try around 300 ballistic missiles.
That’s a lot of boom, wouldn’t you say?
The sale comes just a month after President Joe Biden paid a visit to Saudi Arabia in an attempt to get them to increase oil production to help ease prices at the gas pumps.
According to Just the News, the announcement of the approval of the sale was made by the Defense Department’s Defense Security Cooperation Agency.
After turning away from left-wing politics, a former Antifa activist and Democratic politician are launching a new campaign to challenge what they see as pervasive anti-Americanism among the country's youth.
Gabriel Nadales, an Antifa protester turned conservative activist, and Barrington Martin II, a former Democratic congressional candidate, launched a half-million-dollar ad buy last week through their new group Our America, aimed at empowering young people across the United States to "celebrate a pride in, connection to, and a responsibility for our community and country." The organization, whose advisory team includes conservative commentator Deroy Murdock, will also spend $2 million to produce online content that promotes
Melania Trump slammed the White House Historical Association for its new guidebook on the executive mansion, saying it shows only a small amount of her restoration work and that 'her deliberate styling of the furniture and accessories was significantly rearranged.'
The new 60th anniversary edition of 'The White House: An Historic Guide', which was released July 28, offers readers a behind-the-scenes glimpse of life at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, including photos of the private rooms on the second floor where presidents and first ladies live.
Although the photos were taken last fall during Joe Biden's administration
As America moves like a barreling freight train into a third-world country, one must ask, where is Mayor Pete?
It honestly didn’t take long after Joe Biden became President for shipping containers to start piling up and causing backlog and supply chain issues across the country. The estimated cost is being passed on to Americans causing the price of goods and services to increase 4.5 times more than what they had been paying at the end of 2020. The cost of exporting goods has also skyrocketed. (Tweet)
Republican Arizona House Speaker Rusty Bowers lost his bid for a state Senate seat after refusing then-President Donald Trump´s pleas to help overturn the 2020 election results and testifying before Congress about the efforts.
Bowers tried to move to the state Senate because of term limits. He lost to former state Senator David Farnsworth, who criticized him for refusing to help Trump or go along with a contentious 2021 'audit' that Republican leaders in the Senate commissioned.

Sen. Chuck Grassley’s office confirmed to The Federalist that the multiple FBI whistleblowers charging misconduct related to the Hunter Biden investigation only came forward in the last two months. While the existence of these new whistleblowers proves promising, other FBI agents with knowledge of misconduct or political bias must stop hiding behind the chain of command and start blowing their own whistles.
“Multiple FBI whistleblowers, including those in senior positions” informed the Iowa Republican senator that “Washington Field Office assistant special agent in charge Timothy Thibault and other FBI officials … ‘falsely portray[ed] as disinformation evidence acquired from multiple sources that provided the FBI derogatory information related to Hunter Biden’s
There will be no second term for Showtime’s The First Lady, which starred Viola Davis as Michelle Obama. The dramatic anthology series has been canceled after just one season following ridicule from viewers and widespread negative reviews.
The series also failed to pick up any major Emmy Award nominations, though it did receive a few nods in technical categories.
Showtime confirmed the cancellation in a statement sent to multiple outlets on Monday, saying the show “will not be moving forward with another season.”
The First Lady focused the wives of the presidents, with the plan to cover three administrations per season.

More information is now being revealed on the condition Paul Pelosi was in on the night he hit another car with his 2021 Porsche and was arrested.
The California Highway Patrol report is out. It reveals more on the condition that Paul Pelosi was in, as well as more about the injury to the driver of the other car.(Tweets) According to the report, both cars suffered “major collision damage” in the crash that happened around 10:17 p.m. on May 28. Medical units from CalFire were the first on the scene, followed by a deputy from the Napa County Sheriff’s Department. When the California Highway Patrol arrived, they found
For months, Republicans have been telling anybody who would listen that this is the year they will end their power outage in Albany. They cite violent crime and inflation, an apparent lack of enthusiasm for Gov. Hochul and a national fury over the failures of the Biden administration.
Despite those advantages, there’s been little evidence so far that the GOP could free New York from the Dem stranglehold. A Tuesday poll begins to change that.
Hochul leads Republican Lee Zeldin by just 14 points, 53-39, in the Siena College survey.
Michigan Rep. Peter Meijer, one of 10 House Republicans who voted to impeach Donald Trump over the US Capitol attack, lost in one of Tuesday's most closely-watched primary races against a Trump-backed candidate.
The supermarket chain heir and military veteran formally conceded the race to John Gibbs after midnight in the race for Michigan's Third Congressional District.
Meijer is one of three House Republicans who voted to impeach Trump who saw the end of his political careers on Tuesday evening, as Republican primary voters in Arizona, Kansas, Michigan, Missouri and Washington went to the polls.
After weeks of dominating early voter polls, former local news anchor Kari Lake is trailing her opponent Karrin Taylor Robson by nearly 10 points in Arizona's Republican gubernatorial primary on Tuesday night.
As of midnight Eastern Time on Wednesday morning, business executive Robson holds roughly 49 percent of the vote compared to Lake, hovering around 40 percent.
That's with nearly 60 percent of the vote counted, according to the New York Times.
Arizona's Republican gubernatorial primary is among the most closely watched races on Tuesday - not because of the candidates running, but rather their high-profile backers.
The competition between Lake and Robeson stood out as a proxy battle

During Wednesday's episode of "The View," co-host Whoopi Goldberg debated with pro-life guest and former "View" co-host Elisabeth Hasselbeck on what it means to be pro-life. During the segment, Goldberg made arguments suggesting that God is fine with abortion. (snip) The host and famous actress seemed to invoke God to justify women choosing abortion, countering Hasselbeck’s pro-life points by saying that God gave women "freedom of choice."
Goldberg also argued that Jesus Christ's teaching of, "Do unto others as you would have them do unto you," obliged her to not speak out against abortion lest she risk judging others.
Despite a double-digit polling lead a day before the election, Republican gubernatorial candidate Kari Lake was nearly stunned by Karrin Taylor Robson in the Arizona primary.
Lake spent the entire night clawing back from being way behind. The reason: Early voting and mail-in ballots were the first counted and Robson outperformed anyone’s wildest dreams in those arenas. In the end, in-person voting won out, delivering the victory for Lake.

The United States saw its third 1-in-1,000-year rain in a week on Monday night and Tuesday morning, as southern Illinois was drenched by 8 to 12 inches of rain in 12 hours. An area just south of Newton, Ill., recorded 14 inches of rainfall in just 12 hours, according to the National Weather Service. Thunderstorms brought damaging winds and heavy rainfall through midafternoon on Tuesday. Heavy rain events such as this are becoming more common due to climate change. The NWS office in Lincoln, Ill., received about 20 reports of flooding on Tuesday as roads turned into rivers. Several flash
The hellfire missiles that are said to have taken out Al Qaeda leader Ayman al-Zawahiri, but not his family, are a newer generation of missiles that are high on precision and devoid of explosives.
The AGM 14 R9X missile, made by Lockheed Martin, can be fired from, in Zawahiri’s case, a Reaper drone as well as other platforms. It can be fired from 600 miles away. Because its payload is tungsten and not packed explosives, this version of the hellfire doesn’t have the accompanying explosion– unless it hits, for instance, a full gas tank in a car. The R9X is called a Ninja because of the six blades deployed during flight
Why Are There So Many Idiots in Politics?

You really have to wonder who ran against some of these morons in political office sometimes. Honestly, was the alternative to someone like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being forced to step on a rusty nail? Was Eric Swalwell’s opponent a literal cannibal promising to consume children if elected? If you set out to elect some of the dumbest creatures to ever walk upright on the planet, you couldn’t do much better than what Democrats currently have serving in Congress and the White House. Why?
There is no good answer, at least one that covers everyone. There are, after all, a lot of really dumb Democrats in office.
This is excellent news because South Carolina Senator Tim Scott has long been a DeceptiCon hiding out and tricking most of the Tea Party republican base of voters for several years. Some completely fooled people have even promoted Tim Scott’s name for the presidency.
As an attendee to the 2016 Sea Island Summit, Tim Scott pledged his allegiance to his one true god, money. That is the only allegiance of the American Enterprise Institute. After his initiation he joined the ranks of the manipulative DeceptiCons in the senate led by Mitch McConnell. This endorsement is simply further evidence:(tweet)

A 70-year-old San Francisco woman was brutally beaten by four attackers in broad daylight at her apartment complex. "They used their fist to hit my head multiple times and then they pulled me down and kept kicking me," the elderly lady, who wanted to be identified as Mrs. Ren, told KGO through an interrupter.
Mrs. Ren had spent the last two years in her apartment over fears of COVID-19, opting to leave for the first time Sunday only to be met by a mob of attackers in the hallway of her apartment complex.
"Yesterday was one of the first days for a long time she went out and this is what happened,"
