Beneath campaign nastiness, legitimate
concerns about Fetterman's health
Posted By: NorthernDog, 9/6/2022 9:29:33 AM
Pennsylvania lieutenant governor and U.S. Senate candidate John Fetterman has not fully recovered from the serious stroke he suffered in May. His campaign has acknowledged his obvious struggles with “auditory processing” and speech, but the persistence of those struggles has contrasted with the campaign’s rosier predictions of a return to the rigors of campaigning, including debating his opponent, Mehmet Oz. If Mr. Fetterman is not well enough to debate his opponent, that raises serious concerns about his ability to serve as a United States senator. None of this excuses the antics of Mr. Oz’s campaign, which has decided that their

The CEO of a popular clothing brand Cotopaxi is closing the company's only San Francisco store due to "organized theft rings" and a lack of safety in the city, he announced this week. CEO Davis Smith announced the closure in a lengthy post on social media, saying the location faces regular attacks by thieves with virtually no response from law enforcement. "We are closing the store due to rampant organized theft and lack of safety for our team. Our store is hit by organized theft rings several times per week. They brazenly enter the store and grab thousands of dollars
RENO — Flanked by two generations of pro-choice activists, Senator Catherine Cortez Masto made the pitch she hopes will help her notch a victory and help secure Democratic control of the Senate in a tough election year. “There is no doubt in my mind that Adam Laxalt will be a vote for a federal abortion ban,” she said of her Republican challenger last week at the University of Nevada Reno. “If we aren’t vigilant and if we aren’t fighting back and if we aren’t vocal about it and using all of our voices, it is going to happen.” When Roe
A Quinnipiac University poll shows Democratic incumbent Kathy Hochul with a slight edge on Republican challenger Lee Zeldin in the New York governor's race. The poll shows Hochul holding a 50% to 46% margin over Zeldin. Hochul leads in New York City by a 59% to 37% margin. However, Zeldin has a slim 50% to 49% lead in suburban communities. Quinnipiac University Poll Analyst Mary Snow said the race will be decided by key issues voters will focus on come Election Day. “Crime ranks as the number one issue and the most urgent issue for New York state likely voters,"

A group of violent Philadelphia ATV drivers was caught on video attacking police by throwing bricks and bottles at the officers before fleeing the scene, police said. The group unleashed its assault on police just one day after a Republican city councilman accused the administration of Mayor Jim Kenney, a Democrat, of instructing officers "not to enforce the law." The Philadelphia Police Department shared video on Tuesday that showed "a large group of people riding dirt bikes and ATVs" around a gas station near Delaware Avenue and Spring Garden Street, police said. According to police, a dirt-bike rider initially crashed
Republican Mehmet Oz has narrowed Democrat John Fetterman’s lead in Pennsylvania’s bare-knuckle Senate election, and the two candidates are now polling inside the margin of error, according to a new survey shared exclusively with POLITICO. Fetterman is slightly ahead with 48 percent of likely voters, while Oz has 46 percent, the poll by AARP found. That’s a shift in Oz’s direction since June, when Fetterman, the state’s lieutenant governor, was leading by six percentage points in the AARP survey. (Snip) Fetterman’s image has sunk since June, though it is still right side up by a hair. Forty-six percent of likely

An article in The Atlantic essentially confirmed NBC journalist Dasha Burns’ widely disputed claim that Pennsylvania Democratic Senate candidate John Fetterman appears to have problems making conversation without the use of closed captioning, noting he had difficulty responding "meaningfully" to voter questions. In a Sunday piece headlined, "Do Voters Care About John Fetterman’s Stroke?," Atlantic staff writer Elaine Godfrey noted that Fetterman "still struggles to process the words that he hears, and sometimes he can’t quite express what he means" five months after he suffered a stroke. She also noted that his wife Gisele, who a Rolling Stone writer called
WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. — Three days before early voting begins in North Carolina and three weeks before election day itself, researchers at East Carolina University have good news for Republicans in our closely-watched U.S. Senate race. In a new poll released Monday, the ECU Center for Survey Research has Congressman Ted Budd leading former North Carolina Supreme Court Chief Justice Cheri Beasley by six points, doubling his lead in this same poll a month ago. (Snip) Fifty percent of respondents said they would vote for Budd if the election was held today, compared to 44% for Beasley. Five percent were undecided and
One of Vladimir Putin’s mobilisation chiefs has been found dead in “suspicious” circumstances prompting a murder investigation. The body of Lt-Col Roman Malyk, 49, was discovered near the fence of his home as the Russian tyrant announced his chaotic mobilisation was being called off. Last month, Putin ordered the mobilisation of 300,000 extra soldiers to the frontline as his disastrous war continues to falter with Moscow losing ground on the battlefield. Police investigating the death of Malyk have opened a murder probe but have not ruled out suicide. Some reports said Putin's enlistment chief died from hanging. His “suspicious” death
Shocking video posted online lays bare just how crime-ridden downtown Minneapolis has become, with a police horse harassed and sworn at, people brawling, and illegal street races happening near where rowdy women twerked on top of cars. The scene outside The Gay 90s bar on Saturday night seemed chaotic in the video posted online by Rebecca Brannon, as girls were filmed twerking on top of cars and yelling at a police horse as an officer tried to break up a fight involving the women. Officers in the video told the girls to 'get out, keep moving' after the fight broke
Huge increase in NYC rat sightings

NEW YORK - If you live in New York City, it probably comes as no surprise to hear that rats are becoming increasingly visible all across the Big Apple. Sightings of the rodents are up a stunning 70% from this time two years ago, with New Yorkers calling in some 21,557 rat sightings to the city's 3-1-1 service request line between January 1 and September 30. That's up from 18,601 rat calls during the same period last year. In recent months, the city has tried to control its vermin problem with a number of attempted solutions, including putting a limit on
On May 11, Vice President Kamala Harris cast the deciding vote in favor of Alvaro Bedoya’s nomination to serve on the Federal Trade Commission. This brought Harris to number three on the list of most tiebreaking votes by a vice president in American history. Since then, Harris has cast a six tiebreaking votes and is just five away from tying John C. Calhoun for the record. Yet Harris’s accomplishment also stands out for the fact that she has cast her tiebreaking votes at a faster rate than any of her predecessors. The magnitude of Harris’s record over less than two

A selfie crowd formed around Pete Buttigieg as he stood in line for coffee at the airport in Washington. One woman said she wasn’t going to stop because she wasn’t sure it was him. “It’s me,” the Transportation secretary replied. An older man explained to his wife, “That’s Pete BOOT-GUG,” missing the pronunciation and the emphasis. “He’s the President’s…” the man said, unable to come up with his job title. And yet, it’s Buttigieg – whose only political experience before his failed presidential bid was serving as mayor of South Bend, Indiana – who has become the most requested surrogate

Pro-abortion “D-list celebrity” Meghan Markle says she was treated like a “bimbo” and “objectified” while performing as a “briefcase girl” on the gameshow Deal or No Deal.
“Back in 2006, I had a short stint as a briefcase girl on the U.S. version of the gameshow,” Markle explained during Tuesday’s episode of her Archetypes podcast, in which she and Paris Hilton talked about the “bimbo” stereotype.
“My experience on this show, which included holding said briefcase onstage, alongside 25 other women doing the same, it was, for me, fascinating,” Markle added. “I had studied acting in college — and like a lot of the other women standing onstage with me,
Stacey Abrams, the Democratic nominee for governor in Georgia, floated abortion as a solution to voters’ concerns about inflation on Wednesday, explaining to a Morning Joe viewers that “having children is why you’re worried about your price for gas, it’s why you’re concerned about how much food costs.”
Abrams, who lost the 2018 gubernatorial election to incumbent Republican Brian Kemp, was responding to a question about what she would do to address inflation.
“While abortion is an issue, it nowhere near reaches the level of interest of voters in terms of the cost of gas, food, bread, milk… what could you do as governor to alleviate the concerns
An electric vehicle (EV) owner who takes road trips between Cheyenne and Casper in Wyoming has revealed that his first trip of 178 miles took a staggering 15 hours to complete in his electric Nissan Leaf.
“It was very difficult. For example, [it took] 15 hours to get from Cheyenne to Casper,” Alan O’Hashi told Cowboy State Daily, adding that this particular trip wasn’t taken in the beginning of the EV era. It was in May 2022.
One month later, O’Hashi was able to complete the road trip in about 11 hours, he said. To put it into perspective,
Every day, Joe Biden’s rapidly declining mental state becomes more of an issue.
Just yesterday, Biden read out D-O-T instead of saying dot-com, like a normal, mentally-fit human adult person would do.
But today, he went a step further during a Democratic National Committee event in Washington, D.C.
The View" host Joy Behar recently intimated that she finds the economic concerns of voters "sad and depressing” when compared to the threat to democracy she believes Republicans pose.
The ditzy one added that people simply don't know "what the stakes are" ahead of the midterm elections.
When ABC News political director Rick Klein stated that he believes Republicans were likely going to take the House in the upcoming election, Behar sneeringly asked him, "When your reporters say, you know, you tell me they’re [voters] worried about gas, they’re worried about this, they’re worried about that, do the reporters follow up and say
First lady Jill Biden has reportedly wielded influence over President Joe Biden’s decisions, directly participated in vetting White House officials, and worked to protect her husband from lengthy press conferences.
Jill Biden confronted senior members of the president’s staff after Joe Biden spoke at a conference in January, demanding to know who was supposed to end the conference, The New York Times reported Monday, citing a witness to the confrontation.
CDC Vaccine Advisory Group To Vote on Adding mRNA Vaccines to the Childhood Schedule: (Snip) The presentations and vote on the COVID vaccine for children occur on Wednesday, and the public may comment on Regulations.gov until the vote on October 20. This meeting follows the FDA and CDC expanding the use of the new Omicron jabs for children as young as five. As many, including Dr. Marty Makary from Johns Hopkins, noted, these recommendations are based on tests in mice. In a tweet, Makary said (spacing and punctuation corrected):
It appears the FDA no longer requires clinical trial data. Pfizer & Moderna’s new Omicron vax (tested in 8 mice) was authorized
Journalists and other left-wing activists are freaking out over a New York Times poll that shows Republicans leading Democrats by 4 percentage points among likely voters ahead of next month's midterm elections. They were particularly aggrieved by the poll's finding that Republicans were tied with Democrats at 47 percent among female voters and were supported by 34 percent of Hispanic voters and 18 percent of black voters. Those are terrible numbers for Democrats.
We don't know how the election is going to play out, but at least one thing is guaranteed: If Democrats lose, they are going to blame everyone but themselves for the outcome.
Whoopi Goldberg threw her support behind Democratic Georgia gubernatorial candidate Stacey Abrams, while admitting she can’t vote in the state, and said she’d prefer to see the Democrat “run for president” rather than governor.
During an interview Goldberg posted on Instagram on Wednesday, Abrams and “The View” co-host talked about all the reasons they said people should pick her over incumbent Republican Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp. (Snip)“Tracy, Election Day is November 8th,” Goldberg said, misstating Abrams’ first name.

Today’s obsession from various groups on the left with bringing sex up around children has gotten so bad that they’re now openly admitting it’s a goal around any given project. With the writers of the Disney/Marvel “She-Hulk” series, they admit to wanting to make a show that kids could tune in to watch while the characters talk about sex lives and hooking up. Effectively, the writers attempted to create a show that mixes superheroes with “Sex in the City.”
According to Bounding Into Comics, the writers admitted to wondering just how far they could go with talk about sex, with one of the actresses encouraging it to go farther and farther:
A 5-year-old boy claims that he was an African American woman killed in a fire and reincarnated.
Little Luke Ruehlman spooked his parents as he began incessantly insisting that he used to be a woman named Pam when he was just 2 years old.
The young boy’s mother, Erika, told Ohio’s Fox 2 that her son began speaking of a woman named Pam from a young age, but the family didn’t know anyone by the name.
One day Luke finally explained who Pam was. “He turned to me and said, ‘Well, I was,’ ” she recounted. “[He said] ‘Well, I used to be, but I died and I went up to heaven.
