Bad Bunny threw his support behind Vice President Kamala Harris on Sunday by sharing a video of the Democratic presidential nominee shortly after a comedian at Donald Trump’s Madison Square Garden rally made crude jokes about Latinos and called Puerto Rico a “floating island of garbage,” angering artists and some Hispanic Republicans. Bad Bunny, whose official name is Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio, is one of the most famous artists of the moment. His backing could be a boost for the Harris campaign as it tries to bolster its support with Latino voters, among whom Trump has been working to gain ground.

I Sure Hope President Donald Trump can step out and make clear he rejects that joke from that comedian…. Who was not funny at all. No one should make any excuse for this joke in any way.

So, let me get this straight: Because a comic at DJT's rally said something that may be deemed inappropriate, this weenie is endorsing Harris...hopefully to sway Latino votes in her favor, and subject every Latino in the country pay more for groceries and gasoline and everything else they purchase, endure higher crime rates in their communities, wait hours at an ER to get medical care and have their kids crowded out of their schools...just to name a few of the negatives? I'd call that a knee-jerk reaction that he should re-think. With a friend like him, who needs enemies?

Curiously enough, no story on this incident mentions whether or not this comedian is Puerto Rican, which makes me speculate that he is.

Puerto Ricans are not a race they are a culture. The Island was inhabited by Caribbean natives, then conquered by the White Spanish who imported the Black slaves. Over the years, Germans settled on the west cost of the Island near the City of San German and the British in the south around Ponce. .So, there is no such thing as a Puerto Rican race anymore than there is an American race. They are a culture just as we are.

Puerto Rico is not a race anymore than the US us a race. He made crude jokes about their culture, which was insulting but, much less dangerous than being called a NAZI as the Left is calling Trump.

JPMorgan CEO Jamie Dimon on Monday launched an astonishing attack on the Biden-Harris Administration by hitting out at the “onslaught” of red tape from Dem-backed regulators. The Queens native, who reportedly had interest in becoming US Treasury Secretary should Kamala Harris win the election, gave bureaucrats in Washington a tongue-lashing for hobbling the industry with a raft of new rules. “It’s time to fight back,” Dimon told a conference of bankers in New York.

There’s an old aphorism among leftists: if you’re not winning the argument, say it louder. If you’re getting killed in a factual debate, toss the logic and get emotional. Get angry. Throw anything you got, it doesn’t matter if it’s true, just keep screaming. Actually, I don’t know if that’s an old aphorism—I just made it up—but I see it time and time again, whether I’m arguing with a low-IQ progressive or reading what passes as the mainstream media these days.

If you’ve been alive on Earth for a few decades, you’ve probably watched more than a few election cycles – both general and midterms, federal, state, and municipal. With that thought in mind, I have to ask – have you ever seen a politician win on the promise to raise your taxes? The answer to that, of course, is ‘no.’ Sure, during election time, liberals and Democrats will talk about the importance of certain programs for various perceived “needs,” causes, and crises – but they never get around to explaining what pays for those programs. The answer to that, of course, is ‘your money!’

From her incoherent word salads to her puddle-sized understanding of the issues, Harris is dumber than Hillary, more boring than Hillary, and, ultimately, far more dangerous to the future of the United States and the world than Hillary Clinton. This is not an exaggeration. After putting her up for president, the Democrats should be arrested for impersonating a political party. Unvetted by the electorate, Kamala Harris was manufactured in a media lab, probably at Columbia but the evidence is lacking. She's a Frankenstein monster whose personae have been carefully assembled, piece by piece, to reflect an America that doesn't exist except in the fever dreams of left-wing radicals.

President Biden described the current election cycle as “decency versus lack of decency,” and called former President Trump a “loser” during a campaign stop for Vice President Harris in the swing state of Pennsylvania. “This is the most important election of our lifetime no matter how old or young you are,” Biden told the Pittsburg, Pa. audience members on Saturday. Not a joke, not a hyperbole, not about Democrat or Republican. This is decency versus lack of decency,” Biden declared. “This is about character.” The president added Harris was a “clearer” choice for the position of commander-in-chief. “The choice couldn’t be clearer. The choice couldn’t be more stark,” the president stated.

U.S. intel corroborated an exclusive USA TODAY report about how authorities believed Russia was behind the widely viewed pro-Trump, anti-Harris video. U.S. intelligence officials have confirmed that a viral video spreading online showing mail-in ballots being destroyed in the key battleground suburb of Bucks County, Pennsylvania, is a hoax perpetrated by Russia as part of its covert effort to help elect former President Donald Trump. A federal official exclusively told USA TODAY on Friday that authorities believed that was the case, based on the specifics of the video and the fact that it was targeting Vice President Kamala Harris and trying to boost Trump's electoral chances.

It has been reasonably stated before. It is the one constant in an ever-changing universe when the political desperation reaches a certain point in the debate, leftists always use the “Hitler” card. The worn-out and overused pattern always repeats. Earlier today, a desperate and diminished Democrat candidate for the office of the presidency reached the final phase of campaign futility. Taking to the podium directly outside the residence of the vice president, Kamala Harris said Donald Trump was Hitler. Trying to disprove a negative assertion framed as a wrap-up smear is futile.

CBS has shown its true colors. The home of Walter Cronkite and Dan Rather is no longer just a biased news organization. That’s too kind. For years, I’ve watched this network go from slanted reporting to straight-up propaganda, and now to sheer deceit. The past month has shown that Republicans should have nothing to do with it — and that former President Donald Trump is right to call attention to its chicanery with a threat of legal action. First, CBS moderators broke the network’s own pledge not to fact-check during the vice-presidential debate, deliberately targeting GOP candidate J.D. Vance and doing so-

Americans should prepare for “unrest’ if former President Donald Trump completes the greatest political comeback in modern American politics, Democrats told the Wall Street Journal on Monday. The potential for Democrats to perpetrate political violence undermines their narrative that Republicans, and especially the America First movement, are a threat to democracy. “I think there’ll be some violence. I think there’ll be workplace fights. There’ll be fights at kids’ birthday parties. I think they’ll be protests and will turn violent,” Mark Halperin recently told Tucker Carlson. Resistance groups, according to the Journal’s Joshua Chaffin and Valerie Bauerlein, believe citizens should be “bracing for unrest” if Trump wins:

The havoc wrought by Hurricane Helene in western North Carolina brought disaster to homes and families, but that has not stopped Democrats from blocking the approval of emergency early voting sites in the heavily Republican area. The refusal to act forced the GOP-led state legislature to intervene. Democrat-run local elections boards in McDowell and Henderson counties have failed to approve additional early voting sites in the disaster-stricken area, despite increasing calls for more access to voting. Both counties voted for Donald Trump in 2020. “Ensuring the right to vote is upheld for western NC citizens devastated by Hurricane Helene should be a non-partisan issue,

The popular YouTuber tragically passed away on October 28, 2024, following a month-long battle in hospital.

Nothing says joy like an abortion, am I right? If you cringed reading that, take it up with Vice President Kamala Harris. On Friday, just 11 days from the election, the Democratic presidential nominee campaigned in Houston in part to boost the Democrat running for the Senate. But she wasn't here only for a Senate race.By talking about abortion and basking in the fame of a celebrity or two, Harris tried to make an example of Texas while peddling a false narrative about joy and freedom to women. I hope women see through this charade.
