So, the Ukrainians used a drone to strike at the Zaporizhzhya NPP. NPP—that’s Nuclear Power Plant. Lord Bebo @MyLordBebo Russia says Ukraine hit it! As a result of the shelling of the city of Energodar by the Armed Forces of Ukraine, a fire broke out at the Zaporizhzhya NPP cooling systems facility. Currently, all 6 power units of the station are in cold shutdown, there is no threat of a steam explosion or other consequences. The radiation background around the NPP and the city of Energodar is normal. The Ministry of Emergency Situations employees are working at the scene of the fire, the fire sources are being eliminated. There is no threat to the plant.

Tim Walz’s battalion commander came out swinging with a scathing post on Facebook. Several videos of Tim Walz lying about his military rank and service in combat have surfaced. Walz never deployed. He abandoned his battalion after they were deployed to Iraq so he could run for Congress. Tim Walz introduced himself at a 2006 veterans event as a “retired command sergeant major,” which is a lie.Stolen valor Tim Walz lied about his rank in a 2009 farewell message to soldiers actually deploying to Iraq.

Although the left opposes voter ID and calls the effort to secure American elections “racist,” they apparently have no problem requiring ID for their events. An email sent to the RSVP list for the Harris-Walz rally in Arizona on Friday said participants must present a matching government-issued photo ID to be admitted to the venue, KTAR reported. (Snip) So, requiring ID to vote is racist, but requiring ID to attend an event with Democrats is not? (X's) In a 2021 interview with Soledad O’Brian, Harris talked about how “problematic” voter ID laws are.

Sen. JD Vance (R-OH) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that the Trump administration will start mass deportations with a million people. Anchor Jonathan Karl said, “One of the proposals in the platform you’ve talked about, and Trump has talked about, is a mass deportation. You said he said he’ll start with the easy ones, the criminals, people who commit crimes, deport them, but he said deporting 15 million to 20 million people, how do you actually do that?Vance said, “We have to start with the fact that we have a wide-open southern border because our border czar set a lot of open border policies.”

America is in a crisis. From a constitutional republic and limited government founded on Jewish and Christian principles, America has now disintegrated into a state of chaos, violence, murder, corruption, indebtedness, and internal division that threatens to rip the nation asunder. Where does the blame lie? A paper by the progressive Carnegie Endowment for International Peace asserts that the “world’s oldest democracy” is “in swift decline.” The authors contend that “political violence and spontaneous hate crimes that harm people” are committed mostly by those on the right, whereas the vast majority of Black Lives Matter protests have been “peaceful,” except for a few that resulted in

Usha Vance is setting the record straight on her husband J.D.'s luscious eyelashes, saying he was born with them amid speculation over whether the Republican vice presidential nominee wears eyeliner to make his blue eyes pop. The 38-year-old wife of Donald Trump's running mate said 'they're all natural' of Vance's eyelashes in a statement to Puck News. 'I've always been jealous of those lashes,' she gushed. Vance's piercing blue eyes and looks have gained increased attention as he has been thrust into the spotlight with the looming presidential election,

Three current and former Smartmatic executives are charged with running a brazen alleged bribery scheme to use bribes connected to use of the company's voting machine technology. The indictment, handed down in Florida Thursday, doesn't identify the name of the company, which gained notoriety in 2000 when Donald Trump allies leveled debunked allegations that its equipment was part of a vote stealing conspiracy theory. It is engaged in a prolonged defamation lawsuit against Fox Corp. where it is seeking $2.7 billion in damages.

Democrat figures including President Joe Biden, former President Barack Obama, former President Bill Clinton, and failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton will reportedly be speaking at the upcoming Democrat National Convention (DNC) in Chicago. In an article published Sunday, NBC News cited two sources familiar with the plans for the event, which is scheduled for August 19 through the 22nd. (Photo) Obama and the Clintons spoke during the DNC in 2020, the outlet noted, adding that “a source familiar said that former President Jimmy Carter’s grandson Jason Carter is also confirmed to be speaking as a representative for his grandfather.” Vice President Kamala Harris, who has chosen Minnesota’s leftist Gov. Tim Walz (D)

Steven Aguirre Giler was shot in a failed kidnapping attempt as a growing number of rural health workers are targeted by extortionists. ose Aguirre Giler never imagined his brother’s work as a doctor in a rural Ecuadorian town would end in kidnapping attempts and fatal gunfire. His youngest brother, Steven, had a bright future ahead of him after graduating from medical school in 2023 and starting a government-mandated year of service at a health centre in Guayas, a south-western province racked by drug gang violence. “He helped out anyone who needed help,” says Jose. The first kidnapping attempt was in November 2023

Sen. J.D. Vance dove head first into the media onslaught Sunday as he fielded questions from reporters on numerous talk shows. In a pre-recorded interview that aired Sunday on ABC News, former President Donald Trump’s running mate, said he was “extremely confident” in their chances of winning the election. When asked by host Jonathan Karl how the duo’s mass deportation plan would work, Mr. Vance said they would “start with what’s achievable.” “I think that if you deport a lot of violent criminals and, frankly, if you make it harder to hire illegal labor, which undercuts the wages of American workers, I think you go a lot of the way

The U.S. Secret Service has hinted it was not involved in the break-in of a hair salon during a Kamala Harris campaign event in Massachusetts late last month. The allegations of Secret Service involvement arose after the salon’s owner, Alicia Powers, alleged that agents put duct tape over her security cameras and broke into her building by picking the lock. Security camera footage shows an individual dressed like a Secret Service agent approaching the door with a roll of tape and observing the locked door and camera before grabbing a nearby chair to put tape over the camera.

Pope Francis prayed Sunday for the victims of the 1945 atomic bombing of the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a topic he has returned to on numerous occasions. (snip) The pontiff has repeatedly condemned the U.S. bombing of Japan that brought an end to the Second World War. Prior to his 2019 trip to Japan, Francis denounced the “evil” bombings of Nagasaki and Hiroshima, calling the attacks a “tragic episode in human history.” “I will soon visit Nagasaki and Hiroshima, where I will offer prayers for the victims of the catastrophic bombing of these two cities, and echo your own prophetic calls for nuclear disarmament,” the pope told Japanese bishops.

Several hundred people gathered in front of the Ferguson, Missouri. police station to mark the 10th anniversary of the death of Michael Brown. Brown was killed when he struggled with Officer Darren Wilson and, as DNA evidence clearly proved, reached for the officer's gun. Three autopsies confirmed Wilson's version of events. The "mostly peaceful" protesters (according to CNN) began to violently shake the chain-link fence. “We did not react. We stayed here, let them shake the fence,” said Police Chief Troy Doyle. “That happened several times throughout the night up until the point that they broke the bottom portions of our fence,

Seldom are the Regime Media made to look as smugly biased and factually unprepared as in this contentious exchange between GOP vice presidential nominee Senator JD Vance (OH) and ABC’s Jon Karl, over Minnesota’s “transgender sanctuary law”. Watch as Vance completely annihilates Jon Karl’s smarmy line of “fact-based” questioning over Minnesota’s law, which was predicated upon a citation of former President Donald Trump (click “expand” to view full transcript):

On Friday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg — who was appearing in his personal capacity — argued that statements from Republicans that 2024 Democratic vice presidential candidate Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) overstated his title and falsely claimed to have carried weapons in war — which the Harris-Walz campaign conceded the validity of by updating his bio on their campaign website and saying that Walz misspoke about carrying weapons in war — show “how desperate Republicans are not to talk about the issues.”

Vice President Kamala Harris did nothing and allowed over 15 million illegal immigrants to storm into the United States under President Joe Biden’s term. Now, she is campaigning on the promise to fix the crisis in which she created the past four years. Harris called for a “pathway to citizenship” during her rally on Friday after accusing former President Donald Trump of not wanting to fix the southern border. “Donald Trump does not want to fix this problem,” Harris said. “Earlier this year, we had a chance to pass the toughest bipartisan border security bill in decades, but Donald Trump tanked the deal because

Local law enforcement are disputing claims that the Secret Service assigned them to cover the rooftop where a would-be assassin fired at former President Donald Trump during a Pennsylvania campaign rally in July. Acting Secret Service Director Ronald Rowe, during recent testimony, said local police snipers were positioned inside a building adjacent to the rooftop and if they had stayed at their post, they would have seen Thomas Matthew Crooks climb into his position. Others have posted video that also suggested this, as reported by Breitbart News. WATCH — Col. John Mills: Trump Was Getting “Economy” Level of Security from Secret Service: (Video)

Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) appeared on 770 WABC’s “The Cats Roundtable” Sunday with host John Catsimatidis and dropped a bombshell: the Obamas are actually running Kamala Harris’ campaign behind the scenes. And they were running the White House before that, he alleges: If you’re watching the campaign now, some of Obama’s [key people such as] David Plouffe and others are now working on the campaign. You’re getting the Obamas shifting from running the White House to now running this campaign. The 44th president's former staff has their fingerprints all over the place:

Kamala Harris’s rise in many polls since the vice president replaced President Joe Biden as the Democrats’ candidate for 2024 is attributable to her becoming the so-called “generic” Democratic candidate, the New York Times reports. Though the term “generic” can sound like a put-down, it is actually a coveted status, because “generic” candidates who simply reflect partisan loyalty often poll better than real candidates with real-world records and personalities. Biden had been polling far below a “generic Democrat” because of disapproval, even among Democrats, about his job performance, and because of concerns about his age. But Harris, still relatively unknown, has rallied the party:

The media are hopping mad about Republicans referring to Kamala Harris as a “DEI hire.” (snip)” Apparently, it’s racist to notice that DEI exists. (snip) The most easily fooled Republican, former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy, took all this to heart and lectured his fellow Republicans not to use the “DEI attack.” (“Totally stupid.”) His argument is: “Look, I disagree with DEI, but she is the vice president of the United States.(snip) So was Dan Quayle. I don’t remember liberals stoically refusing to sneer about Quayle being a silver spoon, golf-loving WASP. (snip) as California’s attorney general, Harris was the one who deceived voters into passing propositions that unleashed a criminal hellscape

Vice President Kamala Harris continues to have no policies on her website — despite being in the presidential race for three weeks, and in office for nearly four years. As Breitbart News noted last week, there were no policies on the website — even after changes were made to add Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz to the ticket (and the site). Harris is supposedly going to be rolling out some policies in the coming week. As a U.S. Senator from 2019 to 2021, she achieved the most left-wing record of any member of the upper chamber — exceeding even socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT). She embraced “Medicare for All,”

It’s been a few weeks since Joe Biden’s bombshell announcement that he was abandoning his reelection campaign and was endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris to be the Democratic standard bearer, and he’s mostly been invisible since then. He has finally made an appearance, however, sitting for a CBS interview that aired Sunday where he describes how the Dem elite essentially initiated a coup to shove him to the sidelines. It would seem that former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi is the real power in Washington, not the president: "A number of my Democratic colleagues in the House and Senate thought that I was going to hurt them

Kamala Harris’s running mate, stolen valor Tim Walz, once bragged about leaving his 87-year-old mother who had just undergone heart surgery alone in her home to fend for herself. The far-left Minnesota governor said during Covid he isolated and left his mother, who just had major surgery, alone in her home to fend for herself. “This is what we do in my family – my 87-year-old mother had heart surgery. We isolated her. Our goal was to bring her up here and live with us for a while. We can’t bring her. So she is alone. We drop groceries at the door. We have to!”

Former Vice President Mike Pence said Friday he does not intend to endorse or wade into the presidential race this November, expressing concerns about the direction of the Republican Party while criticizing the Democratic agenda. “For my part, I’m staying out of the presidential campaign,” Pence said at “The Gathering,” an event organized by conservative radio host Erick Erickson. “For the reason that I cannot endorse this growing abandonment of our allies on the world stage that’s taken hold in parts of our party,” he said. “I cannot endorse ignoring our national debt that reached $35 trillion just in the last week."

The selection of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz (D) as the running mate for Vice President Kamala Harris has led to intense debates over crime policy, war claims, gender identity policies and other issues. Some attacks have, in my view, been inaccurate or overwrought. However, the greatest danger from this ticket is neither speculative nor sensational. A Harris-Walz administration would be a nightmare for free speech. For over three years, the Biden-Harris administration has sustained an unrelenting attack on the freedom of speech, from supporting a massive censorship system (described by a federal court as an “Orwellian Ministry of Truth“) to funding blacklisting operations targeting groups and individuals with opposing views.

Noticing the outlet with the story is always the first step in identifying the motive behind it. Together with the New York Times, Politico is the most favored outlet by the FBI, DOJ and domestic IC apparatus. snip) (snip)Politico is told by Trump officials they are holding “foreign originated” “hacked documents” from a “senior official inside the Trump campaign.” This is the exact scenario that Politico and the aligned media railed against on behalf of Hillary Clinton in 2016. Now, however, the same Politico is running to the typeset to share what they previously said was illegal to report and share. They’ve got nothing. But keep watching.

People should become familiar with the THIRD AMENDMENT to the United States Constitution. It is there for a very specific reason. Amendment III – No ¹soldier shall, in time of peace be quartered in any house, without the consent of the owner, nor in time of war, but in a manner to be prescribed by law. ¹I would argue the armed person protecting the president or vice-president meets the general guidelines for a soldier in peacetime. The U.S. Secret Service, assigned to the detail of Vice-President Kamala Harris, broke into a private residence in order to avail themselves and their contingents to the bathroom facilities of an American citizen without permission.

The United States is pursuing a high-stakes diplomatic gambit to persuade Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro to relinquish power, offering amnesty to him and his top lieutenants in exchange for a peaceful transition, according to people familiar with the matter. This bold move comes as overwhelming evidence emerges that Maduro lost last month's election by a significant margin. As reported by The Wall Street Journal, US officials have discussed pardons for Maduro and key regime figures who face Justice Department indictments. One source indicated that the US has put "everything on the table" to convince Maduro to step down before his term ends in January.

The Summer Olympic Games scheduled for Los Angeles in 2028 will be car-free with spectators expected to leave their private vehicles behind and only use public transport to access events, mayor Karen Bass decreed Saturday. Bass addressed the issue of the city’s notorious traffic in her opening remarks at a press conference in Paris on Saturday. She added Angelenos not traveling to events over the two-week festival of sport will be expected to work remotely to keep freeways clear, citing COVID restrictions as an example of how stay-at-home expectations can be implemented.

This is the simple albeit massive question that even President Trump himself doesn’t spend time thinking about. Melania does. ♦ To stop him in 2016, the FBI and DOJ ran a comprehensive surveillance operation against his campaign. The same people manufactured a completely fabricated case of Trump colluding with Russia. Have you forgotten? ♦ To stop him in 2017, the DOJ and Congress ran a comprehensive Special Counsel operation against his presidency. The justification of the SC operation was to prove a completely fabricated case of Trump colluding with Russia.

In late July, Vice President Kamala Harris held a fundraising event in Pittsfield, Massachusetts, in Berkshire County. The July 27 event is now in the news for the unforced public relations incident created by the agency, which is already being grilled and ridiculed for failing to protect former President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13. No assassination attempts occurred in Pittsfield, but Secret Service agents were engaged in what arguably was a breaking and entering incident. A local salon owner says agents left her place of business a mess, did not ask permission for entry, and it was all caught on camera for the most part;

With just three months until the November presidential election, polls suggest former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris will go neck and neck in a tight race. However, Trump still has a significant lead over Harris as her “honeymoon phase” comes to an end. According to Polling Plus, Trump is picking up steam in crucial battleground states. In Wisconsin, Trump edges out Harris 49 to 48 percent. In Pennsylvania, Trump’s 46 percent triumphs Harris’ 44 percent. In Arizona, Trump is leading Harris 48 to 47 percent.

Revelations of marital infidelity are never good news for a politician's image. But when the Daily Mail disclosed last week that Kamala Harris's husband had cheated on his first wife by impregnating their children's blonde nanny, it could hardly have been less helpful to the Democrat nominee. When you're trying to win over the progressive young voters who might decide this year's presidential election by showing them you've got the wokest family in America, that sort of cliched patriarchal behaviour is, as they say, highly problematic. Desperate to make up ground against Donald Trump in key swing states, the Harris campaign and its media allies are busting a gut to

Very scary things are happening in the United Kingdom. Sir Mark Rowley, Met Police Commissioner, has threatened to jail U.S. citizens over online posts he deems hateful or disinformation. At the same time, the UK is openly enforcing a two-tier system of justice where antisemitic rioters, pro-jihadi and pro-open borders thugs are given free rein to terrorize citizens, and those who object are beaten and jailed. One jurist has, in fact, just sentenced someone for being a just a looker-on and even retweets of anything the UK overlords object to subjects one to arrest. I’m not worried about Rowley’s threat

Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate 'Coach' Tim Walz was criticized for his display of unbridled enthusiasm during their latest rally in Las Vegas. The duo had held their fifth rally in five days in the swing state late Saturday night in hopes to win over undecided voters - and Walz was pumped! In a video circulating on X, the Minnesota Governor can be seen joyously clapping as the crowd goes wild and he walks around onstage from the podium. As the music blasts through the speakers, Walz overflows with exuberance in the short clip.
