in rebuke of Madison Square Garden rally

Original Article

President Biden raged against “Kill Tony” podcast host Tony Hinchcliffe’s joke about Puerto Rico being a “floating island of garbage” and suggested that was a good description for supporters of former President Donald Trump. “Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community,” Biden said during a campaign call at the White House Tuesday first reported by NBC. “Just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage.” “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters. His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s unAmerican.”

The comedian ( and i don't mean to make excuses for him,)but he called an Puerto Rico an island of floating garbage. Joe Biden just called human beings ---in fact at least half of America's human beings ,garbage, and Biden wasn't trying to be funny. You tell me who just went off the rails. Joe Biden is a sick and and he was a sick man when the Democrats chose to cheat to elect him.

Calling Trump supporters "garbage" is not exactly a plea for unity, but Biden probably did not get the memo that JOY is out, and TRUMP is HITLER is out, because the new message is UNITY.

I think that someone, JD Vance, maybe, could address this "floating Island of garbage" scandal and turn it back around on them. Puerto Rico is facing a crisis point of literarily too much garbage on the island. It's not about the people, its about the garbage. What have Joe Biden and Kamala Harris done to help them out?

Biden has always been a nasty, mean person, a liar, a plagiarist, a man with strange behavioral propensities. Hunter is a walking symbol of all Joe’s perversities and dysfunctions. As for the “comic” he was awful. Immediately I thought, “Who picked this jerk? Foul mouth and not funny,” wished I could have called and said: “give him the hook!” Digger the floating one. So, Who hired him???🧐

This is probably the first time during the entire Biden Harris administration that they even acknowledged the existence of Puerto Rico. Their feigned outrage over the Puerto Rico comment is just one more fake thing about the Harris campaign.

You probably knew it was coming. President Donald Trump -- the master of trolling -- would have a good response to Joe Biden calling Trump supporters "garbage." Indeed, he did, sitting in a garbage truck on Wednesday, calling out Biden for insulting millions of Americans and having a lot of fun in the process. He already showed he has a talent for this with his McDonald's success. That was about serving the people. This time it's about cleaning up Washington. What a great symbolic move it is. How great was it? CNN even had to cut away to cover it, rather than talking about Kamala Harris.

Wednesday afternoon, I participated in an "election integrity call" hosted by the RNC and the Trump campaign. Karoline Leavitt, National Press Secretary for the Trump campaign, spoke first. She explained that they were hosting the call to discuss massive victories in both Pennsylvania and Virginia today. They also wanted to describe the ongoing fight by the RNC and the campaign to ensure free and fair elections. Leavitt referenced the Trump supporter who was arrested in Delaware County, Pennsylvania, on Monday and the voters turned away in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, on Tuesday. She also noted that they had just won the Bucks County suit 30

The Donald Trump Campaign and the Pennsylvania GOP won a huge victory today in their efforts to force the Bucks County, Pennsylvania, government to permit voters to request mail-in ballots in person. The campaign filed a lawsuit on Wednesday, documenting how county officials broke state law and turned away voters hours before the deadline (see Trump Campaign Suing Over Voter Suppression in Major Swing State). This was after video surfaced of a police officer and skeevy individuals, some later identified as local Democrat activists, wearing "Voter Protection" badges but with no visible identification credentials shutting down the line at 1:45 p.m.

The Los Angeles Dodgers clinched the 2024 World Series on Wednesday with a 7-6 victory over the New York Yankees in the Bronx, finishing off a impressive display in the matchup between the two biggest-market and star-laden teams in baseball. The 4-games-to-1 victory in the best-of-seven series is the Dodgers franchise’s eighth World Series title, the second in five years and the first since the pandemic-impacted 2020 season. The Dodgers before that hadn’t won Major League Baseball’s Fall Classic since 1988 and before that 1981, when they beat the Yankees.

Joe Biden narrowly won Nevada in 2020 by just over 30,000 votes. The state has strong union support for Democrats but anyone expecting a clear Harris victory there this year might be in for a surprise. Hometown reporter Jon Ralston estimates that about 60% of the vote in the state is already in and so far Republicans have a big advantage. We are at 790,000 ballots recorded, or 39 percent of registered voters. So I’d guess about 60 percent of the vote is in, maybe a little less. We are going to get at least 75 percent of the vote in before Election Day and maybe as much as 90 percent

A pro-Trump internet ad now running in the swing states of Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Wisconsin focuses on Macalester College professor Brian Lozenski, the Tim Walz education appointee who calls for the overthrow of the United States. The ad plays video of Lozenski describing the United States as “irreversibly racist” and calling for America’s overthrow. It finishes by noting that Walz’s education expertise was one of the reasons Harris selected him as her running mate. The ad was paid for by Restoration PAC. I broke the story of Lozenski’s call for the overthrow of the U.S. here at National Review Online about a month ago.

The Justice Department is disputing the notion that the audio from President Joe Biden’s interview with special counsel Robert Hur is the subject of significant public interest. In a court filing Monday, the Justice Department argued against expediting the release of audio recordings of Hur’s interview with Biden. Hur conducted a two-day long interview with the president last October for his investigation into whether Biden mishandled classified documents. “The motion to expedite should also be denied because it is based on an inaccurate premise: that expedition is warranted because of the public’s interest in President Biden’s conduct during a law enforcement interview,”

HARRISBURG, Pa. — Donald Trump’s campaign filed a lawsuit in Pennsylvania on Wednesday in hopes of briefly extending an in-person voting option in one suburban Philadelphia county where long lines on the final day spurred complaints that voters were being disenfranchised by an unprepared election office. The lawsuit, filed in the heavily populated Bucks County, comes amid a flurry of litigation and complaints over voting in a battleground state that is expected to play a central role in helping select the next president in 2024’s election. The lawsuit seeks a one-day extension, through Wednesday at 5 p.m., for voters to apply in-person for a mail-in ballot.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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
