'knowingly false' info on funding migrant
counseling to enter US
Posted By: Moritz55, 9/20/2024 2:18:32 PM
Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., a member of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, slammed President Biden's State Department for being caught with its hands in the "cookie jar" over taxpayer dollars going toward counseling migrants on how to use the asylum process to enter the United States. "Your department is responsible for giving us knowingly false information," Issa told Julieta Valls Noyes, assistant secretary for Bureau of Population, Refugees, and Migration (PRM) at the State Department, during a Thursday hearing, referencing the department’s PRM program funding a nonprofit organization known as the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society (HIAS).

David Sacks at the recent All-In Summit talked about media bias and lying about science during COVID.
"You bring up these stories about Russian influence or whatever. The real influence operation in this country is by the mainstream media. They're the ones who are spreading disinformation about the war in Ukraine and so many other issues on a scale that dwarfs what any of these handful of podcasters that most people have never heard of can ever hope to accomplish," Sacks said.
DAVID SACKS, ALL-IN PODCAST: I agree with you that the mainstream media is not just biased, it's just like all propaganda all the time.
Author and constitutional scholar Jonathan Turley sounded the alarm on Hillary Clinton's "chilling" suggestion that Americans who share disinformation should be arrested. Turley addressed the former secretary of state's controversial remarks on free speech during "America's Newsroom," warning that the global effort to stifle free speech has reached U.S. shores. JONATHAN TURLEY: I talk about her in my new book, ‘The Indispensable Right,' and how she's been one of the outstanding voices in the anti-free speech movement. Her views on free speech are quite chilling. What's interesting is that for years, the left has been trying to get people to embrace censorship, but it's hard

Political commentators and other social media users criticized Vice President Kamala Harris for remarks that she gave during a campaign event and interview with Oprah Winfrey on Thursday night. "We love our country," Harris said. "I love our country. I know we all do, that’s why everybody’s here right now. We love our country. We take pride in the privilege of being American and this is a moment where we can and must come together as Americans, understanding we have so much more in common than what separates us. Let’s come together with the character that we are so proud of about who we are, which is we are an
“Evangelicals for Harris” — the phrase alone is quite possibly the biggest oxymoron of this election cycle.
Look closely and you’ll find they’re an alliance of disgruntled anti-Trumpers clinging to the title of “Evangelical” like they know what it means, while proudly planting their cross in Kamala’s camp this November. Dig a little deeper and it’s really just an orchestrated coup by the who’s who of the “Orange Man Bad” fan club to pick off votes from a lucrative demographic that overwhelmingly supports the former president.
In a tweet not long after launching, Evangelicals for Harris announced their “ultimate allegiance is to Christ and His eternal Kingdom,” and

Few Americans know that September 17 is Constitution Day and Citizenship Day, commemorating the 1787 signing of the Constitution in Philadelphia. But for me, celebrating citizenship and the Constitution together is the right way to appreciate the promise of America.
I’m an immigrant. When I was eight years old, my parents, brother, sister, and I came to the United States from Israel and settled first in Philadelphia (though I mostly grew up in New Jersey). We came above all for economic reasons: My parents had a small construction business, and the collapse of the Israeli economy in the ’80s destroyed it. America offered the chance to start over.
Over the past six years, I've raised tens of millions of dollars for the Democrats. I've given thousands of hours of my mind, heart, and soul to get Democrats elected, as a Democratic fundraising consultant for federal Senate and House candidates and Left-leaning national organizations.But my work with Democrats started in high school, when I was an alternate-delegate for Hillary Clinton. Later, I interned on Barack Obama's campaign. Most recently, I volunteered at last month's Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Initially, I was thrilled to attend this rite of passage for every political operative. But once there, wandering amidst the glitz and glam
Trump Made Them Do It

The New York Times devotedly follows the cardinal rule of liberalism—never blame the victim!—at least for officially designated victims of American racism and classism. Slavery, for example, not higher rates of criminal offending, is responsible for blacks’ “unequal involvement in the criminal justice system.” If unwed mothers are poor, the reason lies in heartless welfare rules, not in the decision to have a child out of wedlock.
But when it comes to Donald Trump, victim-blaming is de rigueur. According to the Times’s premier Trump-basher, Peter Baker, Trump is responsible for the attempted assassinations against him. “At the heart of today’s eruption of political violence is Mr. Trump,
A conservative watchdog group launched a Freedom of Information Act probe against the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) seeking documents relating to the situation that has left two U.S. astronauts at the International Space Station (ISS) for several more months. The Oversight Project’s executive director told Fox News Digital on Monday he and his group have legally sought emails between NASA political appointees and the White House, including the office of Vice President Harris, who also holds the title of chair of the National Space Council.
The filing by Mike Howell, head of the Heritage Foundation's Oversight Project, also demands outgoing emails to Harris’ presidential campaign.
Donald Trump was targeted Sunday in a second apparent assassination attempt in as many months.
An eagle-eyed Secret Service agent reportedly spotted the barrel of a gun in bushes a few hundred yards from where the former president was playing golf and shot at the would-be assassin, who was later arrested.
It’s a frightening development that highlights the recklessness of the hateful rhetoric constantly aimed at Trump by his political opponents, even after he was shot at a rally in Pennsylvania in July. Last week, Kamala Harris falsely accused Trump of calling Nazis “fine people,” promising a “bloodbath,” and being responsible for “the worst attack on our democracy since the Civil War.”

Since I move between worlds and see how stories are covered differently by each side, I was shocked — or maybe not — to catch a few minutes of ABC News after the debate. They were selling extreme fear, extreme hysteria. The conclusion?
A) Trump said the bad thing, B) his supporters obey his every command and now an army of armed Proud Boys Nazi Brown Shirts are going to Springfield to terrorize the Haitians.
We hear “bomb threats” and “shooting threats” yet we never hear the follow-up. We never hear if there was any investigation. The reason? They don’t care if it’s true or not. It’s useful to
“You are entitled to your opinion. But you are not entitled to your own facts.”
That famous line from Sen. Daniel Patrick Moynihan (D-N.Y.) remains a virtual mantra for politicians and pundits. Yet, judging from the presidential debate between former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, we have officially entered the post-truth political era. ABC News has been widely criticized for the bias of the two moderators Linsey Davis and David Muir. Even liberal outlets acknowledged that the two journalists seemed inclined to “fact check” only Trump. In the meantime, they allowed clearly false statements from Harris go unchallenged.

Vice President Kamala Harris‘ husband, Doug Emhoff, claimed during an interview this week that it was unfair for people to criticize his wife’s performance over the last three and a half years because she was not the president.
Emhoff made the remarks during a softball ABC News interview Friday morning on “Good Morning America,” which came just days after the network’s debate between Harris and former President Donald Trump that was extremely biased against the Republican nominee.
Co-anchor Michael Strahan asked Emhoff if he thought it was fair that his wife was being criticized for the numerous failings
In what could be a massive game changer in the 2024 presidential election, the union representing workers from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) has endorsed Kamala Harris.
In a press release this week, the National Treasury Employees Union which represents workers of the Internal Revenue Service confirmed that the decision had been taken “after extensive research into the candidates’ records regarding the federal workforce, and consultation with NTEU members and chapter leaders across the country.” (X) “When it comes to treating federal employees with respect, valuing their service, and investing in their work, Kamala Harris is the clear choice,”

It’s a shame what’s going on in Springfield, Ohio. [Snip] They’re eating dogs. They’re eating cats. [Snip] It’s been thoroughly debunked, but since when does truth matter when you have the backing of the triumvirate of political treachery: Trump, his running mate and Ohio’s Republican senator, J.D. Vance, and Republican Bernie Moreno, who is trying to unseat Ohio’s other senator, Democrat Sherrod Brown. [Snip] In MAGA-land, focusing targets on brown-skinned immigrants can be a dangerous game. [Snip] All because of a politically advantageous lie, promoted largely by a man out on bond.
Vice President Kamala Harris has accepted CNN’s invitation to debate Donald Trump for a second time ahead of the November election — despite the latter’s insistence that he doesn’t see a “need” to face-off again.
“The American people deserve another opportunity to see Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump debate before they cast their ballots,” Harris-Walz campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said Saturday.
“It would be unprecedented in modern history for there to just be one general election debate. Debates offer a unique chance for voters to see the candidates side by side and take stock of their competing visions for America.
While Kamala Harris has taken a page from Biden’s basement campaign by hiding from the media, except when it is a fawning interviewer, like Oprah, the odds seemed slim she would agree to another presidential debate against Donald Trump.
The New York Post reports, however, that Harris has agreed to CNN’s invitation to a second debate on October 23.
The Post reports:
“The American people deserve another opportunity to see Vice President Kamala Harris and Donald Trump debate before they cast their ballots,” Harris-Walz campaign chair Jen O’Malley Dillon said Saturday.

CNN commentator and New York Times reporter Maggie Haberman said Friday on CNN’s “The Source” that former President Donald Trump was “on edge” after two assassination attempts.
On Wednesday, while speaking at a rally in New York, Trump said, “I thought this was a wise guy coming up. This guy, I’m getting ready. You know, I’ve got a little bit of a yip problem here. Right? That was amazing. I was all ready to start duking it out.”
Guest host Boris Sanchez said, “He describes it as a ip moment. He seems to flinch when he, out of the corner of his eye, sees some movement and
During an interview with Bloomberg on Friday, North Carolina Gov. Roy Cooper (D) declared that “you can’t compromise on women’s right to choose. I don’t think that you can compromise on the fact that we’ve got women who are in danger of dying because doctors are afraid of the government coming in and getting between them and their patient.” And opposed a compromise on a ban on abortion after 15 or 16 weeks because “many of these cases are very complicated and often involve parents who really want to have children, but have extraordinary complications. This is an issue that should be left to women and their doctors.”
Remember when GOP poll challengers were kicked out of Detroit’s absentee ballot counting room on the day after the 2020 election? (Photo) Can you guess which type of ballots they were counting?
If we told you they were UOCAVA votes, would that mean anything to you?
Does the average American citizen even have a clue what the acronym ‘UOCAVA’ stands for?
If you don’t know what the acronym UOCAVA stands for, you should because it could very well be the key to how Democrats plan to steal our upcoming election from President Trump and pro-America candidates running for seats up and down the ballot.
Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are running neck and neck in typically blue Virginia, according to a poll.
The University of Washington’s Center for Leadership and Media Studies poll, published Friday, shows the candidates are tied two in a two-way race among registered voters, while Harris has razor-thin edge with likely voters. Each garners 45 percent of the 850 registered voter respondents’ support in a head-to-head matchup. Three percent prefer someone else, and four percent are undecided. Two percent would not vote, and one percent refused to answer.
Harris leads Trump narrowly, 48 percent to 46 percent, among the 756 likely voters sampled.
The saga of Jill Biden cosplaying as president of the United States just got a lot weirder, and this time the press is involved.
On Friday, questions arose after she was spotted sitting at the head of the table and leading a cabinet meeting at the White House. That it was the first in over a year only made the situation more perplexing. Joe Biden doesn't meet with his cabinet for that long and when he finally does, his unelected wife takes the lead? Then, later on the same day, it was revealed that her name was being embossed on honorary legislation folders as if she were equal to the president.
Janet Jackson has claimed that Kamala Harris is not black - and that the Democrats' 2024 presidential nominee has a white father.
Jackson, 58, made the shocking assertion in an interview with The Guardian, when asked on her feelings about the United States having its first female black president.
'Well, you know what they supposedly said?' the singer answered. 'She’s not black. That’s what I heard. That she’s Indian.'
'Her father’s white. That’s what I was told. I mean, I haven’t watched the news in a few days. I was told that they discovered her father was white.'
