Trump-backed Kari Lake is poised to have the debate stage all to herself after her Democratic opponent for Arizona governor refused to accept the format. Katie Hobbs, the current Arizona secretary of state, must "respectfully decline" an invitation for the debate scheduled for Oct. 12, her campaign manager said on Sunday.The decision comes after Citizens Clean Elections Commission, the state agency that sets up debates, rejected her request to alter the format into separate 30-minute "town hall-style" interviews as opposed to a direct face-off

Actually, he disrespectfully declined, because he is a coward and can't stand up to her WORDS and her IDEAS.

I’m here in Arizona and the only reason I can think of why Katie Hobbs refuses to debate Kari Lake is because she’s scared to DEATH of her!

Seems to be a trend. Patty Murry in Washington State also got the Everett newspaper to change their debate format to a single zoom interview format for each candidate, at the last minute. Senator Murry went first. When Tiffany Smiley gave her opening statement she came out guns blazing at the journalists. She scorched them for carrying Murry's water and caving into her demands because she was too cowardly to face her opponent openly. She went on to describe vividly the disgraceful condition of Seattle, the homeless problem, the drugs coming from across the border and the failure of Patty Murry representing Washington. Then she said good-by. The sheepish look on the faces of the reporters was priceless. Can the voters overwhelm Dominion in Arizona and Washington?

Hobbs like Fetterman avoid debating like the plague. They know they will be outclassed by their opponents. So they hide in plain sight. Be wary of election shenanigans in AZ and PA. You know there will be some.

Those Democrats think It worked for Biden, why not try it! They KNOW they're going to get hammered and they have no real answers as to what they would do to fix the problems, so they simply are not going to put themselves out there to take a Beating! We will see if this approach is going to work!

It's astonishing how low a democrat can get without ideas to give reason for seeking office. It's too easy to debate a leftist democrat who can't be in control of the debate. A democrat who can't shout you down or use vulgar words is defenseless that's why they will not face off with an opponent.

Of course, she wants town halls, so the DNC can plant participants and questions. Dems have learned that, just like their leader Biden, they don’t have to debate or even campaign and they can still “win.”

The Dem nominee is not going to come off well in a televised debate with Lake. First, there is the visual difference. Voters tend to go for the more visually appealing. It is human nature and there is no changing human nature. Second, Lake has proven to be very good at handing hostile questions from reporters. And third, the ideas she expresses are more in line with common sense voters and normal people.

I can't say as I blame Ol' Katie for not wanting to debate Kari. Kari is one smart cookie, and fierce (and right). I wouldn't want to debate her either. Be like going up against a grizzly bear in hand to paw and jaw combat. To paraphrase G. Gordon Liddy: Kari should come out and say she won't debate Katie, because she refuses to engage in a battle of wits with an unarmed woman.

Mike Lindell, the controversial CEO of MyPillow, said Tuesday that his cellphone had been seized by the FBI. In an episode of his show, the Lindell Report, the election skeptic said the seizure took place at a Hardee’s drive-thru while driving back to his home in Mankato, Minnesota. Two cars blocked his vehicle in the pickup lane and Mr. Lindell, according to a clip of the show at The Post Millennial, told his traveling buddy that “that’s either a bad guy, or it’s FBI.” The CEO and ally of former President Donald Trump said he asked the officers if they were going to arrest him.

Medical school and postgraduate training is a long and arduous journey, often taking 8-10 years beyond college. There is much to learn, process and assimilate. Clinical judgement stems not only from experience but also from intelligence. Medicine is a high stakes game. Sickness and health lie in the balance, as does life and death (or vision and blindness in my professional world of retina surgery). Medical errors can be due to accidents, incorrect judgement calls, or lack of knowledge. When your health or life is on the line, you want the smartest physician caring for you, making critical decisions, or performing challenging surgery.
Mass. voters on brink of overriding Dem

Massachusetts voters will have a chance to repeal a law allowing illegal immigrants to obtain driver’s licenses. The bill was vetoed in May by Republican Governor Charlie Baker. But in another case of ruling against the will of the people, the veto didn’t stick. So strongly do Democrats in the state legislature feel about illegals voting that they went all in and overrode the veto. Nevertheless, the people will have the final say, as the ballot measure’s approval was announced on Friday. “It just shows how out of touch the Democratic Legislature is with the will of the people,” Massachusetts GOP chairman Jim Lyons told the Boston Herald.

Under President Joe Biden, the foreign-born population of the United States has grown to its highest level ever recorded, the U.S. Census Bureau reports. Over the last year, the Biden administration added two million new foreign-born residents to the U.S. population — illegal aliens and legal immigrants on green cards and visas — serving as a boon for Biden’s billionaire donors in the financial industry who are some of the biggest beneficiaries of mass immigration and an ever-growing populace. According to Steven Camarota at the Center for Immigration Studies, who analyzed the latest Census Bureau data, the foreign-born population hit nearly 47 million

Most voters believe President Joe Biden has divided the country despite promising to unite it, a survey from Convention of States Action/Trafalgar Group found. The survey, obtained first by Breitbart News, found 58.7 percent of voters express the belief that Biden has, indeed, divided the country during his time in office. Just one in five say he has unified the country, and another one in five remain unsure. While a plurality of Democrats, 43.6 percent, believe Biden has unified the country during his time in office, that sentiment is not held by most Republicans or independents

White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre insisted Tuesday both that inflation was “essentially flat” and that it was OK for President Biden to host a large celebration of his Inflation Reduction Act — even though annual inflation remains elevated at 8.3%. “Overall, prices have been essentially flat in our country these last two months. That is welcome news for American families with more work still to do,” Jean-Pierre said at her regular briefing, moments ahead of the large South Lawn bash. Republicans, however, attacked Biden as “out of touch” for hosting a celebration for the environmental and healthcare spending bill

The Biden administration will stop oil and gas drilling on more than 58,000 acres of federally-issued land after reaching a legal settlement with environmental activist groups on Sept. 6. The Interior Department’s (DOI) Bureau of Land Management (BLM) agreed to halt drilling permits on 113 oil and gas leases across 58,617 acres of land in Montana, North Dakota and South Dakota, according to the settlement. The DOI agreed to stop drilling after a coalition of environmental nonprofits led by WildEarth Guardians and the Sierra Club filed a lawsuit against the agency in January 2021.

Special Counsel John Durham’s request to unseal a motion in limine pertaining to the trial of Igor Danchenko, who has been identifed as the “primary source” behind ex-British spy Christopher Steele’s dossier, has been granted. A motion in limine is a “pretrial motion asking that certain evidence be found inadmissible, and that it not be referred to or offered at trial,” according to Cornell’s Legal Information Institute. The Special Counsel’s motion to include the evidence against Danchenko reveals that the FBI was aware of his activities as early as July 2016. “Beginning in or about July 2016 and continuing through December 2016, the FBI began receiving a series of reports

Have you heard that?” “DeSatan versus that,” Crist said, gesturing to a sign behind him featuring his own name, and one of the event attendees said, “Christ!” Crist responded, “Oh think about it!

The South Carolina Republican is expected to call for a ban on most abortions after 15 weeks of pregnancy at a press conference with anti-abortion leaders, the Washington Post reported. Graham’s office has not divulged any details on what the Protecting Pain-Capable Unborn Children from Late-Term Abortions Act entails ahead of the announcement.

The major stock market indexes tumbled on Tuesday after a key measure of inflation came in worse than expected. The Dow Jones Industrial Average plunged 900 points, for a 2.8 percent decline. The S&P 500 dropped 3.2 percent, while the Nasdaq Composite fell 4.1 percent. The drop, which undid a week worth of gains, came after the Bureau of Labor Statistics revealed that the Consumer Price Index (CPI) increased by 8.3 percent in August compared to the same time last year and increased 0.1 percent from the previous month. The rise was worse than the 8.1 percent increase that economists had expected, according to Dow Jones estimates. The month-to-month figure

Today, federal “revenooers” are the greatest threat to freedom in a country where liberty is already being lost at an alarming rate.

It has often been used an instrument of intimidation, even terror, against political foes, and those who might not be so enthusiastic about paying income taxes, or simply have a financial hardship that limits their ability to pay.
