Justice Department sues Virginia over
effort to reduce voter rolls close to
Election Day
Posted By: Dreadnought, 10/11/2024 6:38:19 PM
The Justice Department announced Friday that it is suing Virginia over its efforts to purge voter rolls within 90 days of an election, calling the state's actions a violation of federal voting laws. The suit comes about two months after Republican Gov. Glenn Youngkin signed an executive order requiring the state's Department of Elections to conduct daily updates to its voting list, including comparing the list of identified "non-citizens" to the state's existing list of registered voters. Local officials are required to notify people found on both lists that their voter registration will be canceled if they fail to respond

New York Times, ProPublica Scares Lefties

With 6,000 Words on Texas Billionaire 'Theocrats 6 replies
The leftist journalists at ProPublica pose as "A Pulitzer-winning, non-profit newsroom focused on investigative journalism in the public interest." But that journalism tends to rip conservatives as a danger to America. The headline writers for their latest effort, a 6,000-word expose in the Sunday New York Times Magazine by Ava Kofman (in partnership with the liberal nonprofit newsroom ProPublica) certainly know how to scare the paper's liberal readership: How Two Billionaire Preachers Remade Texas Politics They control Republican politics in the state. Now they’re poised to take their theocratic agenda nationwide.
We can see signs of the Democratic freak-out going on all around us, as they start to realize that maybe trading Joe Biden out for Kamala Harris wasn't the best idea.
The most recent example is them dragging out Barack Obama to help Kamala in Pittsburgh. It showed how desperate they are. Even Obama admits there isn't the same enthusiasm that there had been for him. He blames black male voters -- the "brothas"-- and suggests they have a problem with Harris because she is a woman.
You don't start looking for excuses like that unless you think that your side is losing or in trouble.
Advantage, Vance
1 reply
In the early days after Tim Walz and JD Vance were announced as vice presidential candidates, Walz scored higher approval ratings. Neither man was broadly familiar to the public, so that was an artifact of biased press coverage.
But in the aftermath of Vance’s crushing debate victory, public opinion has shifted. Rasmussen finds Vance with a positive approval rating, 50% favorable to 42% unfavorable. Walz is under water, at 42% favorable and 44% unfavorable.
Most respondents, of course, are just sticking up for their party, so Vance’s edge no doubt represents an even more significant gulf in public perception
The Biden-Harris administration reportedly colluded with foreign government entities in silencing Americans’ free speech, and one congresswoman has had enough. According to documents obtained by America First Legal (AFL) in September, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) took advice from UK government censors on how best to crush speech. The shocking documents came amid Rep. Nancy Mace’s (R-SC) campaign to defund foreign censorship and prevent domestic election interference by suppressing speech. They also come after Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg admitted to censoring COVID-19 speech after government pressure. As alleged by AFL, the Biden White House hosted the UK government Counter Disinformation Unit (CDU),
Elon Musk’s tweets about the presidential election and spreading falsehoods about Hurricane Helene are endangering his ability to launch rockets off California’s central coast.
The California Coastal Commission on Thursday rejected the Air Force’s plan to give SpaceX permission to launch up to 50 rockets a year from Vandenberg Air Force Base in Santa Barbara County. “Elon Musk is hopping about the country, spewing and tweeting political falsehoods and attacking FEMA while claiming his desire to help the hurricane victims with free Starlink access to the internet,” Commissioner Gretchen Newsom said at the meeting in San Diego.

Kamala Harris is on a "media blitz" because her numbers are slipping. Badly.
This is about the 18th version of Kamala Harris--she "reboots" so regularly because she is no good at this campaigning thing... I'm pretty sure her internal polls show worse numbers than that.
The blitz is not going well at all, unfortunately for her (or Tim Walz, who just had a disastrous interview on Good Morning America). The latest clusterfark for Kamala was her Univision "town hall," during which she gave the same canned answers she always does, and as a result, I think you can rest assured that her poor performance with Latinos is about to

Boeing
will cut 10% of its workforce, or about 17,000 people, as the company’s losses mount and a machinist strike that has idled its aircraft factories enters its fifth week.
Boeing expects to report a loss of an $9.97 a share in the third quarter, the company said in a surprise release on Friday. It took charges in both its commercial airplane unit and defense business.
The manufacturer also won’t deliver its still-uncertified 777X wide-body plane until 2026, putting it six years behind schedule, and will stop making commercial 767s in 2027, CEO Kelly Ortberg said in a staff memo on Friday afternoon.

Tehran has secretly threatened to strike America's oil-rich allies in the Middle East if their territory or airspace is used for an Israeli attack on Iran, it has emerged.
Israeli officials are pushing for damaging strikes on nuclear facilities or oil infrastructure after Tehran fired 180 ballistic missiles at Israel earlier this month.
But Iran has now warned that it will respond with 'devastating hits' on Israel's civilian infrastructure and against any Arab states that help facilitate the touted attacks, The Wall Street Journal reported.
Iran has reportedly threatened several countries hosting American troops, including Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia and Qatar.
WASHINGTON, Oct 11 (Reuters) - Donald Trump's campaign has requested the use of military aircraft and vehicles to protect the former president as he campaigns during the final weeks of the presidential campaign, the New York Times and Washington Post reported on Friday.
The request follows two recent assassination attempts against the Republican presidential candidate. It also comes after Trump's campaign last month said he had been briefed by U.S. intelligence officials on alleged threats from Iran to assassinate him.

To paraphrase something I have heard conservative radio talk show host Dan Bongino say often, the difference between conservatives and liberals is that conservatives think liberals are just people with bad ideas. Liberals think conservatives are not only people with bad ideas, they are bad people. The fact that he is right can be seen in the way the far-left reacts to conservatives. It's not enough to disagree with conservatives, but they and their whole lives must be destroyed. And when it comes to Donald Trump, there are "special" rules for him and anyone associated with or supporting him.
I was reading an interesting piece by Fred Bauer in UnHerd on the "reboot" of Kamala Harris' campaign strategy.
After months of avoiding the media almost entirely, she is now talking in less controlled settings, although so far, the only journalist she has actually sat down with is 60 Minutes' Bill Whitaker, who did a good job trying to pin down a slippery Kamala Harris. The interview did not go well. Dana Bash isn't a good journalist, so I consider this Harris' first interview.
Bauer's piece crystallized something in my mind--something I have thought and said before, but I now see more clearly: Harris isn't just avoiding

Memphis, Tennessee, once known for its blues, soul and rock 'n' roll music, has now turned into a haven for crime and drug abuse.
A study by WalletHub has named the Southern city the most dangerous city to live in America among the 182 cities surveyed.
The United States Department of Justice also declared that this once-flourishing metro has the highest number of homicides - 129 in the first half of 2024.
Apart from this, 167 rapes, 1,028 robberies and 3,763 incidents of aggravated assault were reported in the first half of 2024 in Memphis.
This cultural hotspot also has a crime rate of 98 incidents per 1,000 residents
The White House released Vice President Kamala Harris’ medical report on Saturday, which conveniently claims she is in “perfect health” to serve as the commander-in-chief.The report states that Harris “Possesses the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief.”
“Vice President Harris remains in excellent health,” Army physician Dr. Joshua R. Simmons wrote. "She possesses the physical and mental resiliency required to successfully execute the duties of the Presidency, to include those as Chief Executive, Head of State and Commander in Chief."
Kamala Harris Is Too Stupid To Be President

Univision hosted a “Latinos Ask” town hall with Kamala Harris on Thursday night, and it was about as airheaded and disingenuous as you’d expect. Here was one word salad from the first five minutes — remarkably in response to a question about the two hurricanes that just decimated the southeast of the country:
Leadership is about understanding the importance of lifting people up, understanding that the character of our country is such that we are a people who have ambitions and aspirations, dreams, goals for ourselves and our families, (snip)That’s a lot of ambitions.

Former President Obama is drawing backlash for recent comments calling on Black men to turn out for Vice President Harris in November’s election.
At a campaign stump for Harris on Thursday in Pittsburgh, Obama said that despite Harris raising upward of $1 billion, “we have not yet seen the same kinds of energy and turnout in all quarters of our neighborhoods and communities as we saw when I was running.” That lag in energy, he added, appears “to be more pronounced with the brothers.”
“You’re coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses; I’ve got a problem with that,” he said. “Because part of it makes me think -
I think Kamala Harris would be a horrible person to put in office. I don't even think she should be occupying the office she's in now. (Snip) But I have to admit, when I saw Tim Walz trying to load his gun during his pheasant hunt in Sleepy Eye, Minnesota, on Saturday, I did have an "OMG" moment. I was concerned for his safety and the safety of the people around him because of the trouble he was having just to try to load it. Has he ever used this gun before? Shades of Elmer Fudd.
The disaster in North Carolina continues to instruct, the primary take-away being that the government is malignant beyond our imagination and people are going to have to save themselves. The Appalachias are filled with the most degraded and outcast of human ethnic groups - one of them being my aboriginal tribe, the desperate clans of the Scottish/English border - and all of them vote, over and over again, for not-socialist-oppression because the State sends its stupidest most heartless crusader lefties to “help” Appalachia, and then allows vulture-corporations to ride roughshod. Appalachia is rich, in not just coal, but the power for a new century, with lithium and quartz crystal.

Former President Barack Obama on Thursday admonished Black men reluctant to support Democratic nominee Kamala Harris in the 2024 presidential election, suggesting some aren't rallying behind her because she is a woman.
Obama's stern remarks, delivered to supporters at a Harris campaign office in Pittsburgh, came as polling shows former President Donald Trump, the Republican 2024 nominee, has made slight inroads with Black males, particularly young Black men. Democrats also worry about signs of lagging Black turnout next month even as the country could elect the first Black woman president in U.S. history.
Nearly 450 7-Eleven stores across North America are closing for underperforming, according to the company. Seven & I Holdings, 7-Eleven’s Japan-based parent company, announced in an earnings report Thursday that 444 7-Eleven stores are closing because of a dip in sales, particularly cigarette sales, as well as decreased traffic and inflation. A list of which stores will be closing was not released. 7-Eleven has 13,000 stores across the U.S. and Canada, which means the closures would only impact 3% of the company’s portfolio.
The convenience store chain has faced six consecutive months of traffic declines, including a 7.3% dip in August.

Former President Trump is expected to reveal details of his "Operation Aurora" program during a rally in Colorado on Friday afternoon. The federal-level program would remove "every illegal migrant criminal network operating on American soil," including illegal alien members of the dangerous Venezuelan street gang, Tren de Aragua, a senior Trump campaign official told Fox News Digital.
As the New York Post exclusively reported in late September, the vicious gang lures desperate women deep into the US, "forcing them to sell their bodies on the streets of American cities to pay off exorbitant smuggling fees," a newly leaked law enforcement document reveals.
As President Trump takes the lead in several key swing states with just a few weeks left before the general election, liberals are starting to panic and becoming more deranged. Fox News’s Jessica Tarlov is no exception.
As TGP readers know, Tarlov is one of the most noxious leftists in the media landscape who never fails to slander Trump and excuse Democrat shenanigans. “The Five” co-host was even forced to issue a humiliating on-air correction about former Hunter Biden associate Tony Bobulinski after his lawyer threatened a lawsuit.
Tarlov appeared on Friday night to discuss the race between Trump and Harris.
You've no doubt heard the phrase, "Nero fiddled while Rome burned." America isn't exactly burning, but millions of our fellow citizens are suffering from a series of disasters − natural and human-made.
Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris, meanwhile, spent a significant part of the past week discussing Doritos and naps with shock jock Howard Stern, vibing and drinking beer on air with comedian Stephen Colbert and fielding questions from those hard-hitting journalists who host "The View." While Harris yapped with Stern, thousands of citizens in western North Carolina, recovering from the aftermath of Hurricane Helene, tried to cope without running water and electricity. Millions
