Nike co-founder Phil Knight declares war
on Democrats in Oregon
Posted By: Imright, 10/16/2022 9:14:24 PM
Nike co-founder Phil Knight says he will do anything to block Democrats from keeping their hold on Oregon's gubernatorial seat Saturday. Knight, 84, has poured cash into the campaigns of Democrat Tina Kotek's opponents in the governors race. He helped to kickstart a campaign from Betsy Johnson, a former Democrat running as an independent, who is serving as a major spoiler for Kotek. Johnson's candidacy is giving Republican Christinze Drazan the opportunity she needs in a liberal electorate no longer confident in the state's recent far-left policies.

White House Chief of Staff Ron Klain praised Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Thursday for supporting Ukraine in combating Russian aggression.
Klain said McConnell has been the one of the administration’s “strongest supporters” in voicing support for Ukraine and its fight against Russian President Vladimir Putin’s aggression, arguing that condemning the war should not be a partisan issue.
“We are planning to work with a Democratic House and a Democratic Senate next year, that’s our plan,” Klain said on “Morning Joe.”
Tesla CEO Elon Musk discussed a wide range of economic phenomena during a Wednesday earnings call.
The electric vehicle company posted earnings per share of $1.05 in the third quarter, slightly higher than the $0.99 expected by analysts. It earned $21.45 billion in revenue, falling short of the forecasted $21.96 billion. Musk, however, said that demand for the company’s vehicles is soaring, according to a report from CNBC.
“I can’t emphasize enough, we have excellent demand for Q4 and we expect to sell every car that we make for as far into the future as we can see,”
MSNBC’s Joy Reid accused Florida Governor Ron DeSantis of bringing back the days of Jim Crow by making it more difficult for black people to vote in his state, a smear that has been often used against Republicans and the laws put into place in states to restore voter confidence after the 2020 election.
On Wednesday’s edition of “The ReidOut,” the race-obsessed host launched into an attack on the Sunshine State Republican who is perhaps even more feared and loathed by her party than former President Donald J. Trump and who represents a formidable threat to their power on a national level if he chooses to run for president in 2024.
The creator of a nuclear war simulator has said it is "critical" that the public understands the nature of the threat posed by atomic weapons.
Tensions between the West and Russia rose significantly after President Vladimir Putin launched his invasion of Ukraine in February and worsened as the West began supplying Ukrainian forces with urgently needed military aid. While it is not clear if Russian President Vladimir Putin would go so far as to use nuclear weapons, despite his recent threats about deploying them, the escalation of the Ukraine conflict has led to increased discussions about the potential outbreak of a nuclear war.

If you thought left-wing media outlets were merely biased against Republicans, think again. MSNBC is openly spewing dangerous propaganda on its airwaves and trafficking hate against MAGA voters with no pushback from its hosts or executive brass.
During a recent TV appearance on MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House” show with host Nicolle Wallace, former Republican National Committee Chairman Michael Steele, a RINO (Republican in name only) political analyst with the network, compared MAGA Republicans to “lice,” “fleas” and “blood-sucking ticks” whom potential GOP House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) would have to “lay down with” should conservatives win the majority in the upcoming midterm elections.
In early 2021 the RNC tasked 30 members for election suggestions to help the RNC compete. Election integrity experts like Seh Keshel, Proffessor Clements, Jeff O’Donell, Joe Hoft, or Dr. V. A. Shiva Ayyadurai, were not invited. Their “Committee on Election Integrity” report was released in August 2021. Most suggestions have not been deployed by the RNC.
Here are several additional questions by The Gateway Pundit to the RNC and Chair Ronna McDaniel as the midterm approaches. Republican voters deserve action from their leaders. Republican voters deserve answers.
Joe Biden has a long history of not being able to take being challenged. He may be the first person ever running for president who seemed to have a habit of insulting voters when they asked him questions that he didn’t like, including calling voters “lying dog-faced pony soldier” and “look, fat,” as well as telling another voter he was lying and “full of sh**” before saying that he should “take him outside.”
Biden showed that temper again when he was challenged earlier about whether his continued release from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve was “political” to help Democrats in the election.
He also had another moment
San Francisco has “descended into a city of chaos,” forcing businesses to close their doors as organized crime runs rampant.
Davis Smith, owner and CEO of outdoor outfitter Cotopaxi, wrote a goodbye letter to the city, explaining his decision to close their San Francisco location less than one year after opening.
“It’s sad, but San Francisco appears to have descended into a city of chaos,” Smith said in a message posted on LinkedIn. “Many streets and parks are overrun with drugs, criminals, and homelessness, and local leadership and law enforcement enable it through inaction.”
Cotopaxi vows on its website to “make durable gear in the most ethically sustainable way possible,”
Trump-Endorsed Kari Lake is about to take the stage with Virginia Governor Glen Youngkin in Scottsdale, Arizona.
The event is being held at Dillon Precision at the Scottsdale Airport, and nearly 1,000 patriots are here waiting to see Lake and Youngkin speak.
The Gateway Pundit reported that Youngkin is flying to Arizona to rally beside Kari Lake.
They started their day across the state in Tucson, and they’re closing it out tonight in Scottsdale.
Exactly two years ago, on October 19, 2020, one of the dirtiest tricks in electoral history was played on the American people by 51 former intelligence officials, who used the false alarm of “Russian interference” to stop Donald Trump winning a second term as president.
Using the institutional weight of their former esteemed roles, they signed a dishonest letter to mislead voters 15 days before the election, claiming that material from Hunter Biden’s laptop published by The New York Post “has all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation.”
With Election Day rapidly approaching, the fight for the soul of one of the country’s most contested battleground states is just starting to heat up. In Michigan, where Democrat Gov. Gretchen Whitmer is facing a tough general election challenge from Republican gubernatorial candidate Tudor Dixon, residents will be voting on two leftist-backed ballot amendments that carry serious ramifications — and one grassroots group is standing up to make sure they don’t pass.
The amendments seek to overhaul the state’s election systems and codify unlimited access to abortion into Michigan’s constitution, with the latter amendment covertly including a right for transgender-identifying minors to undergo sterilization without parental consent.
An award-winning ABC News investigative reporter who was working on a book about President Joe Biden’s disastrous pullout from Afghanistan has not been seen in months after his apartment was raided by the FBI reportedly in connection with having classified material on his computer.
Rolling Stone broke the story about 52-year-old James Gordon Meek, an Emmy-winning journalist, on Tuesday. Meek was also former senior counterterrorism adviser and investigator for the House Homeland Security Committee.
The FBI conducted a pre-dawn raid on his upscale apartment

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,
Michael Steele, tell us what you really think.
Steele, Chair of the Republican National Committee from 2009 to 2011 has made no secret of his disdain for Donald Trump and anybody who supports him, has become increasingly strident in his condemnations of Republicans.
Former Republican National Committee (RNC) Chairman Michael Steele warned his party against legitimizing some Trump-aligned figures as political leaders, calling them “fleas” and “blood-sucking ticks” whom potential House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., would have to “lay down with.”
Former vice president Mike Pence was asked at a symposium of sorts if he would vote for his former boss and our former president in 2024. Not surprisingly, though forever disappointedly, Pence revealed he wanted someone else on the ticket. After everything Donald Trump did – not least of all elevating this establishment loser to the second-highest office in the country -this is how he returns the favor.
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
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.
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.
In the three weeks leading up to the November midterms, Stacey Abrams is getting an assist from legacy media as she goes full-court press on her second Georgia gubernatorial bid. Most polls show Abrams down by at least six points, so appearances on the usual liberal and Left-wing programs, as well as puff pieces like this one in The Cut, are flowing like the Chattahoochee River.
Titled, “Stacey Abrams’s Last Stand,” , the writer bemoans how Abrams fought so hard to elect other men for the Democrat Party, yet continues to see a lack of “robust support” in her efforts for higher office.
As Abrams trails Kemp in the polls,
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.
Remember earlier this month when the news broke about a Vermont high school allowing a biologically male student to use the girl’s locker room? Well, there has been a new and disturbing development in this saga. A father who works at the school was suspended for speaking out against the policy after his daughter was made uncomfortable by the male student.
The situation began when the Daily Signal reported that two girls who are members of the Randolph High School’s volleyball team asked the boy, who identifies as a girl, to leave the locker room after he made an inappropriate comment.
