the 2024 election

Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen issued a stark warning about the economy and delivered what appeared to be a veiled endorsement with just over forty days to go before the presidential election. In an op-ed written in the Wall Street Journal, the top economic official signaled the U.S. is on the right economic path and touted the policies implemented in the Biden administration over the last three and a half years. But she also warned the U.S. needs to stay on track. 'Risks remain, but the data suggest that we’re on the path to a soft landing,' Yellen wrote just days after the Federal Reserve announced its largest interest rate cut

Donald Trump has claimed he received intel briefings that Iran has made 'real and specific threats' to assassinate him.
The Republican presidential candidate's campaign gave the chilling update Tuesday night, in a statement that painted the plans 'as an effort to destabilize and sow chaos in the United States.'
The bulletin was sent out by Trump Campaign Communications Director Steven Cheung, and claimed the ex-commander-in-chief had been briefed about the supposed plot.

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon praised Elon Musk’s plan for a government efficiency commission, calling it a “very good idea” while highlighting the need for heightened government accountability.
In an interview with CNBC-TV18 at the India Investor Summit, Prashant Nair brought up Musk’s proposal for an efficiency task force to audit the federal government.
“So Elon, this idea about having an efficiency commission, I actually like the idea. I think governments have to become more efficient, more competent and look at when they take money what do they get for it?” Dimon said.
“I actually think it’s a very good idea.”
Vice President Kamala Harris has tried to portray her upbringing as “middle class” and even working class — touting a summer job at McDonald’s and claiming to be from Oakland, a blue-collar city with a large black population.
For example, during a recent interview with Oprah Winfrey, Harris said, “I grew up a child of a mother who worked very hard. She raised me and my sister and she saved up. And by the time I was a teenager, she was able to buy a home.” On September 13, she posted on X, “Let me be clear: I will always put the middle class and working families first.
The mainstream media keeps saying that the 2024 presidential election is over and that Trump has already lost to Willie Brown’s mistress, Kamala Harris.

in Visa Stock Weeks Before DOJ’s Antitrust Lawsuit 4 replies
Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, dumped over $500,000 worth of Visa stock just weeks before the Department of Justice slapped the financial giant with an antitrust lawsuit, according to the New York Post.
The timing couldn’t be more suspect. Visa, one of the most dominant players in the debit card market, is now facing charges of monopolizing the industry.
The DOJ’s antitrust unit claims Visa has abused its market power, forcing financial tech companies to work with them while penalizing those who try to go with competitors.
According to the press release: According to the complaint, more than 60% of debit transactions in the United States run on Visa’s debit network,
Who's the Threat to 'Democracy'?

It’s almost become a cliché today when someone on the left calls Donald Trump a “threat to our democracy.” Never mind that we’re a republic; the breathless left wants you to believe that Trump will usher in some sort of dictatorship.Over the past nearly four years (and the eight Obama years), we’ve seen what the left wants to do with power. Democrats have weaponized the federal government against conservatives and anyone else who threatens Democrat power, and Obama and Joe Biden have used their presidential bully pulpit to tell the world that we're terrible people for opposing them.
The FBI agent leading the investigation of the second attempt on President Donald Trump’s life was the subject of an internal “retaliation investigation” for anti-Trump and anti-conservative bias, a whistleblower revealed.
Jeff Veltri, the FBI Miami Field Office Special Agent in Charge (SAC), who is now leading the investigation of Trump would-be assassin Ryan Routh, was investigated by the FBI for retaliating against conservatives inside the agency by identifying them as a “security concern.” Veltri, who previously served as a section chief in the Security Division at FBI Headquarters during the time the so-called “Trump questionnaire” was used by the FBI, had already been accused of retaliating against conservatives.

As Democrats worked to blame former President Donald Trump and Senator J.D. Vance for inciting hate crimes against Haitians, the Biden-Harris Department of Justice searched high and low for any evidence to support their accusations, emails obtained by The Daily Wire show.
On September 13, Jomaica Sherman, a Lead Conciliation Specialist at the DOJ’s Community Relations Service (CRS), wrote to Rachel Roberts-Pickett, an official with Catholic Charities Dallas, that “my colleagues and I were tasked with researching information regarding the Haitian Community.”

Border czar Kamala Harris is set to stop at Arizona’s southern border on Friday as she campaigns in the state.
The Harris campaign has not provided details of the border stop and location she will visit, likely to prevent the locals from showing up.
It would be a shame for the Democrats if thousands of Trump supporters showed up in protest of Kamala’s inaction on the southern border.
The far-left New York Times reports that “Harris is expected to make her first visit to the southern border since becoming the Democratic nominee,” omitting the fact that her first and only visit

In what’s likely his final speech to the United Nations General Assembly, President Biden said on Tuesday that he thinks “every day” about the 13 Americans who died in a suicide bombing at Kabul’s airport — as Secretary of State Antony Blinken faces a possible House panel contempt vote later in the day.
“Thirteen brave Americans lost their lives, along with hundreds of Afghans in a suicide bomb. I think [of] those lost lives — I think [of] them every day,” said Biden, 81, stumbling over his script.
Biden called his August 2021 withdrawal from Afghanistan “a hard decision, but the right decision” during the lengthy speech,

"Zero Dark Thirty" was a pretty solid movie. I liked it because the producers and director didn’t sugarcoat the way that CIA operatives treated terrorists. Terrorists deserved their fate. The composite protagonist “Maya” was a CIA analyst who worked tirelessly to bring justice down on Osama Bin Laden — AKA a bullet to the brain.
After Maya had fingered where Bin Laden was, she met with Leon Panetta, the then-head of the CIA. Panetta was portrayed by James Gandolfini. I don’t object to artistic license when actors portray real people, but Gandolfini was a big man: 6’1” and intimidating. He looked intimidating just standing still. Panetta,
SPRINGFIELD, Ohio, WJW-TV [Cleveland, OH] - In the state of Ohio, private citizens have the ability to legally file criminal charges. Tuesday, a Haitian nonprofit called Haitian Bridge Alliance did just that, bringing criminal charges against former President Donald Trump and Ohio Sen. JD Vance [Snip] The bench memorandum and supporting affidavit filed at Clark County Municipal Court comes following unfounded claims from both men regarding the large immigrant population in Springfield, Ohio. The attorney for the organization says there is probable cause the two committed crimes and they want a judge to affirm that, file charges and issue arrest warrants for both men.
An emotional President Joe Biden dabbed away tears Monday evening before he applauded Bill and Hillary Clinton for their uncommon “decency” then cooed “I love you” to the former first lady for publicly defending him.
The octogenarian was attending the Clinton Global Initiative’s summit but was not listed to speak before the elite gathering. The New York Post (NYP) reports he appeared there in support of Jill Biden before being called to the stage himself to accept a Global Citizen award. “This is what you call being trapped,” Biden declared before thanking the former first couple for their support.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy flew into a key U.S. swing state this week on a taxpayer-funded aircraft after publicly criticizing former President Donald Trump and Republican Ohio Sen. J.D. Vance.
Zelenskyy touched down in Scranton, Pennsylvania, on Sunday in a U.S. Air Force C-17A aircraft and toured a local munitions factory that has been producing armaments for Ukraine amid the country’s ongoing war against Russia.

The son of alleged would-be Donald Trump assassin Ryan Wesley Routh was arrested Tuesday morning on child pornography charges after the feds found hundreds of sick images when they searched his phone following his dad’s arrest.

Oran is the son of Ryan Routh, who is accused of trying to kill the former president while he was golfing at his club in West Palm Beach, Florida, on Sept. 15.

Suicidal Jews

When individuals kill themselves, we look for answers in their DNA, their environments, their personal reactions to feelings of impotent rage, rejection, disappointment, heartbreak, and mental illness.
But how to explain group suicide? There are numerous examples, going back to 206 B.C., and these relatively recent cases:
In 1943, in the final phase of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, many of the Jewish fighters besieged in the “bunker” at Miła 18 committed mass suicide by ingesting poison rather than surrender to the Nazis.
In 1945, about 1,000 residents of Demmin, Germany, committed mass suicide after the Red Army had sacked the town.
