As Paper Loses 200K Subscribers Over Endorsement Debacle

Washington Post owner Jeff Bezos has reportedly told the newspaper that it needs to add more conservative columnists in a bid to make the paper more balanced. The directive comes as the paper has lost more than hundreds of thousands of subscribers over the last several days after Bezos killed the Editorial Board’s endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris. NPR reported that by midday on Monday, more than 200,000 people canceled their subscriptions, more than 8% of the company’s total number of subscribers. Bezos has told people at the newspaper that he wants to grow the paper’s reach with conservatives,

CBS News anchor Norah O’Donnell accused former President Donald Trump “and his supporters” of not giving President Joe Biden “grace” over his “garbage” remarks.
O’Donnell referred to how Trump rode on a garbage truck to his rally in Wisconsin a day after Biden described Trump voters as being “garbage.” “Former President Donald Trump was in North Carolina earlier, and tonight he’s also in Wisconsin,” O’Donnell. “He landed in Green Bay just a short time ago, and pulled, then, this campaign stunt, speaking to reporters from a garbage truck, proof that he and his supporters are giving no grace to a gaffe by President Biden, where he in his explanation, inadvertently
I think one thing that both sides can agree on is that the 2024 presidential election cycle, specifically starting in June and going until Election Day, will one day be known as perhaps the wildest, most unpredictable campaign cycle in modern American history.
And we are so here for it!
As we reported earlier, GOP presidential nominee Donald Trump put on an absolute master class Wednesday in trolling his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris, and her purported boss, President Joe Biden, by hitching a ride on a garbage truck to a campaign event in Wisconsin.
The photos and videos of Trump, dressed in a suit and an orange safety vest,
President Joe Biden bizarrely bit three babies as he greeted the children of staff to his final Halloween party at the White House.
Biden - infamous for his playful interaction with children at public events - also feigned fright at the creepy costumes of his young visitors alongside his wife Jill who was dressed in a full-body panda suit.
The 81-year-old president was pictured biting the leg of a baby dressed as a turkey, chomping the toe of a child in an ice cream cone costume and nibbling at a third baby wearing a blue dress.
Kamala Harris' speeches in three swing states on Wednesday were derailed by hecklers in the critical final stretch of the campaign with the polls on a knife edge.
The vice president was in the middle of her remarks in the battlegrounds of North Carolina and Pennsylvania when the demonstrators started screaming and shouting at her.
The Democratic nominee slapped down the interruptions both times by invoking Donald Trump and claiming he considers his critics the 'enemy.' Her third rally of the long day also was interrupted.
Protesters have popped up frequently at Harris' rallies and most have targeted the Biden administration's involvement in the war in Gaza.
Liberal icon and feminist author Naomi Wolf endorsed former President Donald Trump, highlighting how he was “being more inclusive.”
During an interview with Steve Bannon, the host of the War Room podcast, and the former executive chairman of Breitbart News, Wolf was asked if she really endorsed Trump. Wolf added that the Republican Party had become the “unity party,” and Trump was leading it. Wolf has previously worked as a presidential campaign adviser for former President Bill Clinton and former Vice President Al Gore.
Vice President Kamala Harris looks exhausted on the campaign trail, recently unearthed footage shows of the vice president.
The footage undercuts a Harris campaign narrative that tries to frame former President Donald Trump as low energy. (Video) In a video posted by the Trump War Room X account, Harris rested her head against a headrest in what appears to be the Marine Two helicopter and gave a big yawn. Aides to the vice president in the aircraft appeared to be attending to her needs.
The video surfaced Wednesday after Harris gave her Tuesday evening closing campaign remarks in Washington, DC, on the National Mall.
As all signs point to a Trump victory next week, CNN appears to warn its viewers that Vice President Kamala Harris doesn’t have what it takes to be the next president of the United States. CNN senior data reporter Harry Enton pointed out not-so-good news for Democrats but great news for Republicans as he cited polling numbers that show former President Donald Trump edging out Harris in the presidential race. He made note of a recent RealClearPolitics survey that shows Trump in the lead over the vice president among six of the seven critical battleground states.
Enten pointed out that just 28 percent of Americans believe the country is heading

PORTLAND, Ore.—The man suspected of setting fires in ballot drop boxes in Oregon and Washington state is an experienced metalworker and may be planning additional attacks, authorities said Wednesday.
Investigators believe the man who set the incendiary devices at ballot boxes in Portland, Oregon, and nearby Vancouver, Washington, had a “wealth of experience” in metal fabrication and welding, said Portland Police Bureau spokesperson Mike Benner.
The way the devices were constructed and the way they were attached to the metal drop boxes showed that expertise, Benner said.
Authorities described the suspect as a white man, age 30 to 40, who is balding or has very short hair.
Police previously said surveillance video
No, Joe. That’s not poultry.

Donald Trump hit back at President Joe Biden for calling his MAGA supporters 'garbage' with a spectacular nine-word zinger.
'You can't lead America if you don't love Americans,' said Trump speaking to a crowd of supporters at a Rocky Mount, North Carolina, rally Wednesday.
'And you can't be president if you hate the American people,' he continued.iden likened MAGA supporters to trash while discussing comedian Tony Hinchcliffe's joke about Puerto Rico being a 'island of garbage' during Trump's Madison Square Garden rally in New York.
'The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,' Biden said

In September 2024, we reported that data expert Tim Vetter as well as Phani Mantravadi of Check My Vote identified 6,126 duplicate votes on the August primary voter rolls.
Later, 6,017 of the duplicate votes curiously disappeared from the voter rolls after our reporting, while 109 duplicate votes remained in the October vote history. “Our Secretary of State has a record of scrubbing the voter rolls after the media and election integrity groups bring it to their attention.”

Days before President Joe Biden called the tens of millions of Americans who support former President Donald Trump “garbage,” Hollywood actor Robert De Niro called Trump “a piece of s***” while speaking at a rally in Pennsylvania for Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign.
“It makes me so f****ng angry that we’re here talking about a piece of s*** like Donald Trump,” De Niro said, eliciting cheers from the audience. (X Video) As Breitbart News reported, De Niro joined fellow actor Leonardo Di Caprio, along with several other celebrity elites, in an attempt to boost Harris in the crucial battleground state of Pennsylvania on Saturday.
President Trump called on a crowd of supporters to "forgive" President Biden after he compared the former president's supporters to garbage.
"Wow. That's terrible," Trump said, invoking Hillary Clinton’s infamous "deplorable" remarks in the weeks before the 2016 election. "And then she said irredeemable. That didn't work out."
The Republican nominee called on his supporters to forgive him during a packed rally at the PPL Center in Allentown, Pennsylvania. "Garbage, I think, is worse," he said. "But he doesn't know. You have to please forgive him."
Arnold Schwarzenegger has made a rare presidential endorsement just six days before the 2024 election.
The former Republican Governor of California - who refused to vote for Donald Trump in 2016 - announced that he will be voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz.
In the shocking endorsement, the actor wrote: 'I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians.'
Despite that, the Terminator star, 77, said that it's time for the country 'to move forward', and that 'the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz'.
ABC has sparked wild conspiracy theories after mistakenly airing election results for Pennsylvania.
The results appeared on the ticker along the bottom of the screen during a broadcast of the Formula 1 Mexico Grand Prix by ABC local affiliate WNEP-TV on Sunday.
It showed Kamala Harris taking the state with 52 percent of the votes, while Donald Trump's share was 47 percent.
It instantly prompted claims of election rigging on social media, with one person tweeting: 'The cheat is on.'
WNEP-TV said that the numbers came up on the screen in 'error' and that they had been 'randomly generated' as part of a test ahead of election night on November 5.
The White House and its media allies ran a coverup for President Biden after he maligned former President Donald Trump’s supporters as “garbage” — going so far as to edit an official transcript of his remarks, to the outrage of conservatives and other critics who called out “flat out lying” by Democrats and their allies.
Democrats went into damage-control mode Tuesday night due to the president’s trash talk, claiming that Biden hadn’t intended to demonize his party’s political opponents just seven days before voters head to the polls.
“The President referred to the hateful rhetoric at the Madison Square Garden rally as ‘garbage,’” White House spokesman Andrew Bates said in a statement.

I was invited by my New York congresswoman, Nicole Malliotakis, to attend the Madison Square Garden Trump rally, but I politely declined because I loathe crowds.
I did, however, watch the rally online when supposed MAGA comedian Tony Hinchcliffe said:
“There’s a lot going on. There’s literally a floating island of garbage in the middle of the ocean right now. I think it’s called Puerto Rico.”
He also made a bunch of disparaging remarks about Latinos and implied that illegals are coming here making lots of babies. Hmmm, I guess I am supposed to be so offended that I will not vote for Trump or any Republican running for office.
A shocking scene reportedly unfolded at a satellite election office in South Park Ice Rink in Bethel Park, PA, where early voters, who had been waiting for hours, witnessed ‘vanloads’ of ‘non-English-speaking citizens’ allegedly escorted to the front by “translators” to cast their ballots.
According to X user Emma Cawwod, at least “three buses” arrived, with individuals being guided in by representatives from “Vote Today PA,” a vote mobilization group funded by the progressive organization Working Families Power, which advocates for causes like “economic fairness, racial justice, gender equity, climate sustainability.”
Some of these individuals were seen wearing hooded sweatshirts with “Vote Today PA” printed on them.
The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that Virginia is entitled to remove noncitizen aliens from its voter rolls, siding with the commonwealth over lower courts less than a week out from the election.
The order comes two days after Virginia attorney general Jason Miyares filed an emergency application, requesting that the Court stay an injunction that ordered Virginia to restore some 1,600 suspected noncitizens who are ineligible to vote to the state’s voter rolls. A federal appeals court upheld the injunction on Sunday, quickly prompting the attorney general to appeal to the Supreme Court.

Joe Biden might just have formally ended Kamala Harris' campaign on Tuesday night.
The Democrats were trying to go all in attacking the Trump rally at Madison Square Garden, demonizing it as a "Nazi rally" and criticizing what a comedian said there about Puerto Rico. But then Biden blew all that away in his criticism by calling Trump supporters "garbage," as we reported earlier.
Politico then tried to spin what he actually said but was caught because video was released showing what he actually said.

The venerable Washington Post may or may not have been a force for good, but it certainly was great.
They brought down Richard Nixon for crimes that were only modest by today’s inflated standards but serious at the time. They helped lose the Vietnam War – a war that was criminal, or just, depending on your view of history, but the losing of which was certainly a tragedy for the conquered South Vietnamese and most of the rest of the world.
They won the Pulitzer Prize 76 times, and many of those times were back when the Prize rewarded true excellence.
In the final week of this 'dead heat' presidential election, I am reminded of Ronald Reagan's landslide 1980 victory. Then as now, President Jimmy Carter was polling neck-and-neck with his Republican challenger. A Gallup poll showed Carter up one percentage point nationally in late October. Only four days before the vote, a CBS News/New York Times survey showed the race to be just as close. Then the bottom dropped out of Carter's campaign - and Reagan won by nearly 10 points in the popular vote, and a staggering 489 to 49 in the Electoral College. I was a young campaign
The U.S. Capitol Police, in coordination with federal agencies, conducted a “Casualty Evacuation Exercise” Monday night, just over a week before Election Day.
In a public notice, the U.S. Capitol Police stated, “EXERCISE: This evening, the United States Capitol Police & our federal partners are conducting a routine training exercise on the grounds of the U.S. Capitol. Please do not be alarmed if you see emergency vehicles and low flying helicopters.” (X) This exercise took place one week after the Capitol Police conducted a campus-wide evacuation drill.
“EXERCISE: This morning, at approximately 10:00 am, we will have a campus-wide evacuation exercise. The routine drill is in coordination with our Legislative Branch partners.
