A background check company was hacked and now the information of almost 3 billion people is up for sale on the dark web. Florida-based Jerico Pictures Inc., which runs National Public Database, also known as NPD, was hacked according to a press release from Schubert Jonckheer & Kolbe LLP, the company investigating the breach.
The company, which represents consumers in class action lawsuits against corporations, said that “USDod,” a cybercriminal group, got into NPD’s data in April and took the personal information that had been collected. The database compiling the information on 2.9 billion people was offered on the dark web for $3.5 million.
California: Next Stop, Venezuela

Just when you think California didn't have enough foot left to shoot, it pulls out a gun and does it again. This time it involves the initial step toward California nationalizing the gasoline refinery industry. The California Energy Commission (CEC) has proposed several government regulations of the petroleum industry in order to combat future gasoline price surges. CEC regulators announced proposed government controls of the petroleum industry, ostensibly to combat future gasoline price surges. CEC's proposed fiasco is unbelievable since it has a clear vision of the ultimate outcome: Venezuela.
The CEC announcement comes as Chevron, one of the largest oil companies in the U.S., announced that it will relocate

First son Hunter Biden, acting on behalf of a Ukrainian energy company, requested help from the US Embassy in Rome to land a lucrative business deal, while his father, Joe Biden, was vice president, according to a report.
Hunter’s big ask and apparent attempt to use his father’s position of power to land the deal for Bursima — the Ukrainian gas giant that he sat on the board for — came to light only after State Department records were released to the New York Times after Joe Biden ended his 2024 re-election bid last month.

Last week we found out that Kellyanne Conway, a rather disingenuous woman with deep professional republican bona fides, had registered under FARA laws so that she could lobby the US Government on behalf of Ukraine. Essentially, Kellyanne Conway is a Ukraine lobbyist.
The MSM tried to push a story that people around President Trump were positioning Conway for a more substantive role in the Trump campaign. However, President Trump put a stop to that false narrative by telling everyone there was ZERO truth to such a claim.
Having a weak president in charge of the United States makes us vulnerable to attacks from ruthless dictators, Donald Trump and Elon Musk agreed during Trump’s interview on X August 12.
Trump repeatedly stated in the interview his conviction that Israel and Ukraine would never have been launched into war had he still been president. While leftists might fixate on Trump’s saying he had a good relationship with dictators like Vladimir Putin and Kim Jong-Un, Trump clarified that he meant the dictators had respected him and been willing to back off and negotiate instead of fighting it out. That made America and the world safer.
Americans want their government to help revive the American Dream that helped the Baby Boomers, Donald Trump told Elon Musk in their August 12 conversation on X.
“It’s about the American dream,” Trump told Musk. “You don’t hear about the American dream anymore, Elon, you’re the American Dream in the truest sense, but you don’t hear about the American dream anymore. (X Video)
The American Dream hope for the future is rarely mentioned in the post-1990 government policy of enforced migration and chaotic diversity, slack wages, slumping living standards, and high housing costs.
The idea emerged in the early 1930s and then blossomed in the post-war prosperity made possible by
For the next five months, Dr. Kevin C. O’Connor will be one of the most powerful people in the world.
The White House physician is the chief medical arbiter of Joe Biden’s fitness to continue as commander in chief in a war-torn world until the end of his term in January. Even as the public has long expressed concern about the 81-year-old president’s mental capacities and Democratic Party leaders pressured Biden to drop his bid for a second term, O’Connor has repeatedly given his boss a clean bill of health.
As Republicans demand that the president be removed from office under the 25th amendment
It's been exactly one month since a smelly, pimply-faced incel's bullet narrowly missed President Trump's face. Bleeding and defiant, Trump rose moments after the bullet struck his ear, shook his fist in the air, and yelled, "FIGHT, FIGHT, FIGHT" like the boss that he is.
But the shooting seems like ancient history now because the mockingbird media mudpuppies running most of our news outlets have decided that the story was bad for their bolshie business because it shows that Trump has a pair of brass stones and is a true leader. So the lefty press decided to memory-hole the shooting
The Harris campaign runs misleading Google ads that look like news articles published by the establishment media, an Axios analysis found Tuesday.
The strategy harnesses the ambiguous nature of the media’s oftentimes pro-Harris coverage with actual Harris campaign advertising.
The Harris campaign edits the ads that “make it appear as if the Guardian, Reuters, CBS News and other major publishers are on her side,” Axios reported. “It’s a common practice in the commercial advertising world that doesn’t violate Google’s policies, but the ads mimic real news results from Search closely enough that they have news outlets caught off guard.”

What's the betting line on this challenge? 100:1 against? Those odds would likely still be too low.
During his conversation with Donald Trump, Elon Musk took a shot at the media coverage of Kamala Harris as "propaganda" designed to cover up her radical politics. He also ended up endorsing Trump, as I noted earlier. However, he also offered Harris equal access to the same vast community of voters ... if she has the courage to take it.
Just how seriously does Harris take 'equity'? Newsweek apparently tried to get a comment from Team Kamala, but has yet to receive one.

CNN host Kate Bolduan pressed Democratic New Jersey Gov. Phil Murphy on Tuesday about whether Vice President Kamala Harris should be participating in sit-down interviews.
Harris has not participated in a single sit-down interview since launching her presidential candidacy on July 21, the day President Joe Biden dropped out of the race. Bolduan pointed out that Republican nominee Donald Trump has been participating in interviews, most recently with “X” Owner Elon Musk on Monday night.
Joe Biden on Tuesday stopped to chat with reporters on the South Lawn of the White House as he departed en route to New Orleans.
Biden is traveling to Louisiana to deliver remarks a Cancer Moonshot event. He’s going to cure cancer. Just ask him.
After hiding from the public, Biden shuffled out of the White House and took four questions before hobbling over to Marine One.
One reporter asked Biden if he would attend a Trump inauguration. “I have good manners, not like him,” Biden said.
Tesla CEO Elon Musk pitched a “government efficiency commission” to cut government waste while speaking with former President Donald Trump on Monday, and offered to “help out” with such an endeavor.
Musk called for the commission during his more than two-hour conversation with Trump on Monday night. Trump was very receptive to the idea. The relevant conversation begins around the 1:44:00 mark: (X Video) “I think it would be great to just have a government efficiency commission that takes a look at these things and just ensures that the taxpayer money, the taxpayers’ hard-earned money, is spent in a good way,” Musk told Trump.
Kamala Harris's honeymoon bounce in the polls has Democrats excited for the first time in a long time in this election. Even with that surge of enthusiasm, she's still only managing to take a small lead within the margin of error in the RealClearPolitics average. Nevertheless, her position appears to be much stronger than Joe Biden's but, CNN's Harry Enten is warning them that Harris doesn't have the election in the bag — not by a long shot.
To explain why, he looked at battleground state polling in the previous two election cycles to see how far off they were from the results.
Audience members of The Late Show With Stephen Colbert laughed when Stephen Colbert called CNN an “objective” news outlet, to which CNN anchor Kaitlan Collins replied by asking if that was “supposed to be a laugh line?” Colbert informed that it was not.
“I know you guys are objective over there and that you just report the news as it is,” Colbert told Collins, which immediately sparked laughter among the show’s audience members. (X Video) A seemingly surprised Collins then asked, “Is that supposed to be a laugh line?” to which Colbert replied, “It wasn’t supposed to be, but I guess it is.”
During a conversation with former President Donald Trump on Monday, billionaire Elon Musk said that he is not “far-right,” as the media portrays him, but a political “moderate” who is strongly encouraging other moderates to vote for Trump in 2024.
Musk framed the 2024 election as an “important juncture” and said our nation is “in deep trouble” if Trump were to lose.
“I’ve not been very political before. [The media] try to paint me as a far-right guy, which is absurd because I like to make electric vehicles,” Musk said to Trump. “I supported Obama — I stood in line for six hours to shake Obama’s hand
The United Auto Workers (UAW) union has filed federal labor charges against former President Donald Trump and billionaire tech mogul Elon Musk.
This comes hot on the heels of their groundbreaking Twitter Space interview, a conversation that garnered global attention and shattered records with nearly 1 billion combined views of the conversation and subsequent discussion by other accounts.
The interview, which took place on Monday night, saw Trump and Musk exchange ideas on a range of topics, in what many have dubbed a historic dialogue between two of the most influential figures of our time.
However, not everyone was thrilled with the outcome of this conversation. The UAW,
Nearly a week ago, we ran a bombshell piece based on the DHS’ Office of Inspector General (OIG) Report that turned out to confirm numerous aspects of our ground-breaking coverage on the January 6 pipe bomb hoax, including new information indicating that Kamala Harris’ own Secret Service detail at the very least participated in a cover-up of this hoax. Likely on account of its utterly damning and inconvenient contents, the OIG report had been assiduously suppressed at the orders of the highly corrupt and political DHS head, Alexander Mayorkas, of open borders fame. In fact, at the time that we published our own expose based on this report,
Once in a while there is a court ruling on the Fourth Amendment that just makes my jaw drop. The Fifth Circuit had such a ruling today, United States v. Jamarr Smith. The case creates a split with the Fourth Circuit on one important issue, and it creates another split with the Colorado Supreme Court on an even more important issue. The new case is about the Fourth Amendment limits of geofence warrants, which are warrants to access location information for users who have Internet providers retain location history. The Fifth Circuit makes two important holdings. First, accessing any amount of geofence records is a search
The European Commission, described as the “executive arm” of the European Union, is trying to force X CEO Elon Musk to censor presidential candidate Donald Trump on an American platform.
Musk announced on Sunday that he and Trump are set to host a “live conversation” on X, marking Trump’s return to the platform. But a letter from Thierry Breton of the European Commission issued a threat on Monday to Musk over the “amplification of harmful content.”
The letter claims Musk, who owns a U.S.-based company, is obligated to adhere to EU law meant to govern European politics

MSNBC is the self-appointed police force for racist comments in American society. Not a day goes by when at least one of the pundits at the network does not label someone a "racist" – even if they are not actually a racist.
Yet, last week, one of MSNBC's own went on another overtly racist rant against white people. Primetime host Joy Reid thanked Kamala Harris for not picking Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly as her running mate because, unlike Tim Walz, Kelly is "super white."
Err, not just "super white.
According to Reid, Sen. Kelly is "like a mayonnaise sandwich on Wonder bread white."

LAS VEGAS — Some of the best hackers in the world gathered in Las Vegas over the weekend to try to break into voting machines that will be used in this year’s election — all with an eye to helping officials identify and fix vulnerabilities.
The problem? Their findings will likely come too late to make any fixes before Nov. 5. In one sense, it’s the normal course of events: Every August, hackers at the DEF CON conference find security gaps in voting equipment, and every year the long and complex process of fixing them means nothing is implemented until the next electoral cycle.

A Christian group in Washington state has shown it’s being injured by a state bias law, a federal appeals court ruled on Aug. 12, reversing a lower court decision and reviving the group’s case against state officials.
The Union Gospel Mission of Yakima, Washington, sued over the Washington Law Against Discrimination, which bars employers from discriminating based on sexual orientation. The group said the law is unconstitutional and that it is being affected by the law because it distributes a form for employees to sign that agrees to adherence to a Christian lifestyle and beliefs, including only engaging in sexual conduct in a marriage between a man and a woman.
The FBI’s “alarming” use of general warrants to scoop up the private location data of the devices of thousands of people on Jan. 6, 2021, was a violation of the Fourth Amendment that enabled an illegal four-acre dragnet to generate criminal charges without probable cause, defense attorneys argue in federal court filings.
In the wake of the protests and violence at the U.S. Capitol, the FBI served search warrants on technology giant Google Inc. and telecommunication companies, including AT&T.
Elon Musk interviewed Donald Trump for almost two hours last night. It was on X, and it got off to a rocky start. While this event was great, this platform can’t handle the volume. Musk said the means test for 8 million people—tens of millions will tune in, guys. Regardless, Trump attacked Kamala Harris and Tim Walz’s record, voiced concerns about the country's future, and outlined the many socio-economic issues plaguing the country.

Former President Donald Trump told Tesla CEO and X/Twitter owner Elon Musk during an interview on X Spaces on Monday evening that he was “more of a believer” in God after the assassination attempt on his life last month.
“I’m a believer now,” Trump said. “I’m more of a believer, I think. A lot of people have said that.” During the live interview with Musk on X on Monday, which started late after a distributed denial of service attack (DDOS) on X’s servers, Trump spoke about the moment Thomas Matthew Crooks opened fire at his rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13 from the rooftop of a nearby building, where he
The Obama Effect

A coincidence is, “the occurrence of events that happen at the same time... but seem to have some connection.” That seems to be the case whenever Barack Obama is in close relationship with left-leaning world leaders or directly involved in an American election. Although Obama works hard to look like he’s not directly involved in the things he’s engaged in, anyone who has followed the machinations of the stealthy socialist knows that there are no coincidences regarding the former president.

In the three weeks since Joe Biden handed her the nomination, Kamala Harris spent a total of 70 seconds in front of reporters and issued one specific promise, which she stole from Donald Trump.
This is the first presidential campaign in history that appears to be guided by Nancy Pelosi’s line about Obamacare: “We have to pass the bill so that you can find out what is in it.”
At her brief stop before a handful of reporters while boarding Air Force Two, one of them oh-so-politely asked Harris when she’d sit down for a press interview.

Congresswoman Elise Stefanik on Monday condemned Democratic vice-presidential nominee and Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for rubbing shoulders with the founder of National Students for Justice in Palestine (SJP) during a 2019 event.
Walz was photographed with the anti-Semitic scholar and SJP founder Hatem Bazian during the Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR)’s March 2019 event on “Challenging Islamophobia” at Metropolitan State University in St. Paul, the Washington Free Beacon reported.
“Tim Walz condones and props up anti-Semites like The Most Dangerous Professor in America Hatem Bazian,” Stefanik told The Daily Wire. “Kamala Harris and Tim Walz is the most radical anti-Semitic ticket in history.”
Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign has reportedly snubbed the Teamsters Union — which represents more than one million members — after the union’s president gave a populist speech at the Republican National Convention (RNC) to court GOP lawmakers on pro-worker policies.
At the RNC, Teamsters President Sean M. O’Brien delivered a historic address and praised former President Donald Trump for inviting him to speak. The goal of the speech, O’Brien said, was to make inroads in the Republican Party, which increasingly represents the nation’s working- and middle-class.
“President Trump had the backbone to open the doors to this Republican convention, and that’s unprecedented.

Former President Donald Trump released an ad on his X account Monday that leaned into pro-American imagery while sending a message of courage.
Released Monday afternoon and acquiring more than eight million views as of this writing, the ad featured the former president giving a speech over a montage of his supporters from various walks of life.
“Remember that nothing worth doing is ever easy,” Trump says in the ad. “You’ll have bad moments. You got to love what you’re doing, and if you don’t, just do something else.”
Later, the ad drives home a message of persistence by telling people they will have to face “criticism from those who lack courage.”
The European Union is not pleased that Twitter’s Elon Musk is interviewing former President Donald Trump tonight. Hopefully, it won’t be like Ron DeSantis’ 2024 rollout on the platform, which got marred by endless crashes and audio issues. It dovetails off another key development in the 2024 election: the former president has returned to Twitter with a vengeance. With over 88 million followers, it was insanity that Mr. Trump wasn’t taking advantage of this platform. He opted to continue using his platform, Truth Social, but he needed to use this as Kamala’s camp had decided to make this a social media war.

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “AC360,” CNN Senior Political Commentator Van Jones argued that 2024 Democratic presidential candidate Vice President Kamala Harris is getting the most attention right now and doesn’t need to talk to reporters right now because “if it ain’t broke, why fix it? She’s got a convention coming up. She’s going to go up another point or two. And then she can talk to a reporter.”
Jones began by saying that 2024 Republican presidential candidate former President Donald Trump is “not getting as much attention as Kamala Harris.”

Musk also explained that he has always been a “moderate Democrat” or “slightly left,” but said the Democrats have gone too far.
Hillary Clinton — who once falsely claimed she took sniper fire in Bosnia — attempted to come to the rescue of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, the Democrat vice presidential candidate.
Walz is facing scrutiny for exaggerating his military service and choosing to retire from the military after he knew his unit — of which he was the senior enlisted leader — would deploy to Iraq.
“Tim Walz served honorably for two decades. Then he joined Congress and worked to pass a new GI bill that helped fund the college educations of millions of veterans—among them, JD Vance,” Clinton posted on X on Monday.
Former President Donald Trump and X owner Elon Musk agreed that the United States does not “have a president right now” while speaking in an X Space on Monday.

In a stunning display of hypocrisy and double standards, CBS News attacked former President Donald Trump when he announced his “no tax on tips” policy proposal in June and then suddenly became uncritical of the idea when Vice President Kamala Harris copied Trump on Saturday.

Voters “want the American dream back,” Trump said, and he vowed

“I got infected about two weeks ago,” said Fauci. “It was my third COVID-19 infection, and I had been vaccinated and boosted a total of six times.”
No one knows how dangerous and weird Kamala Harris’ running mate Tim Walz is better than Minnesotans.
A new video appeared over the weekend of Minnesotans telling the truth about Walz, revealing the extent of his extremism during the pandemic, his failure during the riots, and his failure to lead the state.
The Gateway Pundit reported on the hundreds of millions of dollars scammed from taxpayers under Walz’ watch.
Walz even bragged about leaving his 87-year-old mother, who had just undergone heart surgery, alone in her home to fend for herself.
He even set up a snitch hotline for neighbors to report their neighbors for violating his draconian COVID restrictions.
