Trump transition official says RFK Jr.
wants to force vaccines off the market
Posted By: 4250Luis, 10/31/2024 5:28:15 PM
Howard Lutnick, co-chair of the Trump-Vance transition team, said in a Wednesday interview that former presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr., who is backing former President Trump, is seeking the federal data to prove vaccines should be kept off the market. Lutnick added, however, that Kennedy will not get — nor does he want — the job of secretary of Health and Human Services (HHS). “He’s not getting a job for HHS,” Lutnick told CNN’s Kaitlan Collins, pushing back against the claim that Trump had promised Kennedy the job.

I’m writing this on the 29th of October. As I wrote last week, I think Donald Trump is going to win. I think he’ll take office in January, but the two months between will be chock full of Democrat tricks trying to delegitimize his victory and coordinated riots seeking to push America into chaos before he’s inaugurated, along with the swamp seeking to do everything it can to insulate itself from the potential consequences of a Trump presidency.
January 20, 2025, will not be a checkered flag moment.

How Progressives Blew It
5 replies
It wasn’t so long ago progressives were riding high. They had a moment; they really did. Their radical views set the agenda and tone for the Democratic Party and, especially in cultural areas, were hegemonic in the nation’s discourse. Building in the teens and cresting in the early ’20s with the Black Lives Matter protests and the heady early days of the Biden administration, very few of their ideas seemed off the table. Defund the police and empty the jails? Sure! Abolish ICE and decriminalize the border? Absolutely! Get rid of fossil fuels and have a “Green New Deal”? Definitely! Demand trillions of dollars for a “transformational”
Three score years ago this Sunday, one of the seminal moments in modern American politics occurred in the service of a presidential campaign that would suffer a resounding defeat. Ronald Reagan’s “A Time for Choosing” broadcast endorsing Barry Goldwater’s unsuccessful candidacy did far more than herald Reagan’s arrival on the national stage. Somewhat paradoxically given its title, Reagan’s speech holds a principled timelessness that makes it as relevant today as it was six decades ago.
Well, I guess we can dispense with the quaint notion that unsecured steel "ballot boxes" deposited around California, Oregon, and Washington are secure. If anyone should hold those beliefs after reading what just happened in the Pacific Northwest, then you should probably have that person held on a 51-50 until they snap out of their delirium.
Overnight in Portland and Vancouver, in what are literally attacks on democracy, "incendiary devices" — IEDs — were used to incinerate "hundreds of ballots" in two ballot boxes overnight in Portland, Ore., and Vancouver, Wash.
Wyoming’s at-large congresswoman, Republican Rep. Harriet Hageman, brushed aside a question this month on whether she plans to run for governor in 2026 but did not say no. During an Oct. 19 interview on the Cowboy State Politics podcast, host David Iverson asked Hageman, “Harriet, are you going to run for governor?”
“I am flattered at the number of people who have talked to me about this, and it’s something that requires an awful lot of thought,” Hageman said. “Right now what we need to focus on is, we need to focus on getting Donald Trump elected in November.”
The Ordeal and Triumph of Mr. Netanyahu
5 replies
After the October 7 massacres, the obituaries of the long political career of Benjamin Netanyahu, published both in Israel and in the West, became orthodox. He was considered as politically inert as Donald Trump once was after January 6, 2021. The conventional wisdom speculated not if, but only when he would be forced out of office. Western leaders and the Israeli left, and indeed even the Israeli non-left, as well as American and European pundits, claimed that the laxity of the Netanyahu government was entirely to blame for the grotesque massacre of October 7.
Worst. Nazi. Rally. Ever.

When Donald Trump’s campaign announced plans for a rally at Madison Square Garden, Democrats and their media allies knew they had a problem. Trump was going to pack the house on their turf. So they wasted no time pushing the tired Hitler narrative and claimed that the choice of venue was an homage to a pro-Nazi rally held there in 1939. It wasn't just liberals in the media pushing this narrative, either. Hillary Clinton accused Trump of “actually re-enacting the Madison Square Garden rally in 1939.”
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) said she thinks the Madison Square Garden rally former President Trump is hosting Sunday is a “white flag of surrender.”
“I think he’s waving the white flag of surrender,” Hochul said Sunday on MSNBC’s “The Weekend.” He’s coming back to a city that he knows well. He’s comfortable here. Maybe he’d like to sleep in his own bed.”
Hochul contrasted Trump’s rally with Vice President Harris’s itinerary. She’s campaigning in the critical battleground state of Pennsylvania.
Trump will be going to his “known, familiar” environment, but it won’t serve him on the campaign trail, Hochul argued.

On Sunday, former President and GOP nominee Donald Trump transformed Madison Square Garden into MAGA Square Garden, as the crowd reached capacity of reportedly over 19,000 people. In attendance was the melting pot of New York: Whites, Italians, Muslims, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, all the colors on the spectrum and then some. Yeah, it's unprecedented. This is the Republican presidential candidate packing out a famous venue in deep blue New York City. For a supposedly fascist, racist, Nazi rally, something has gone horribly wrong. The comparison between Trump's MSG rally and a 1939 Nazi Party rally started with, you guessed it, the Hildebeast:
Twenty thousand MAGA die-hards flooded Madison Square Garden for a sold out rally for former President Donald Trump in New York City.
Tens of thousands of people lined the streets of New York City as Madison Square Garden reached capacity ahead of the 45th president’s appearance in the Big Apple.
The crowd roared with applause as RFK Jr., Tulsi Gabbard, Tucker Carlson, and Hulk Hogan took the stage.

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
Boards are going up in Washington, DC, less than a week from the election, at it seems some businesses are anticipating riots on election night.
Andrew Leyden, a freelance photographer in DC, said he caught wind that some in DC were beginning the process of boarding up, so he decided to check it out himself. Indeed, he found that the back entrance of the Post Office near the White House has been covered with plywood boards, and workers are currently boarding up the front side of the office as well.

Actress Rosie O'Donnell has claimed she is on the verge of taking pills as she continues to worry that former President Donald Trump will beat Vice President Kamala Harris in this year's presidential election. [SNIP] She also expressed her concerns about Russian infiltration in the election, and claimed Trump would try to claim there was voter fraud if he loses.
'I'm, let's say on a scale of 10 being "Can't think of anything else and may need some additional medication," I'm like a seven,' O'Donnell admitted at the beginning of her video.
An ad that encourages women to lie to their husbands about supporting Kamala Harris is getting blasted on social media.
The ad supporting Vice President Kamala Harris, which was released by Vote Common Good, was voiced by actress Julia Roberts. “In the one place in America where women still have the right to choose, you can vote any way you want,” Roberts says. “And no one will ever know.”
In the ad, a woman wearing a bedazzled American flag hat votes for Harris. When she leaves the voting booth, her husband asks if she made the “right choice.”

Barack Obama shared his reaction to his daughter Malia dropping her last name for her directorial debut.
The former president said he warned her that dropping her name wouldn’t hide her connection to her famous parents.

“I was all like, ‘You do know they’ll know who you are.'”
Former President Trump is suing CBS News over a “60 Minutes” interview it broadcast with Vice President Harris earlier this month that he and his allies have claimed was edited to cast her in a positive light.
The lawsuit, which seeks $10 billion in damages and was filed Thursday in U.S. District Court in the Northern District of Texas alleges the network engaged in “partisan and unlawful acts of election and voter interference through malicious, deceptive, and substantial news distortion.” “To paper over Kamala’s ‘word salad’ weakness, CBS used its national platform on 60 Minutes to cross the line from the exercise of judgment in reporting to deceitful, deceptive manipulation

Ever. It’s just that simple. They’re intimidating to him.

Former President Donald Trump said on Thursday that he intends to create a new Cabinet position geared toward cutting the cost of living if elected to a second term in the White House.
He made the announcement as part of a “new step” to get “emergency price relief to all Americans” while speaking at a rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico, with less than a week to go before Election Day.
“I will create a new Cabinet position for a senior member of my administration who will be tasked exclusively with doing everything in the federal government’s power to reduce the cost of living,” Trump said.

The Superior Court of Arizona ordered Secretary Fontes to release the list of up to 218,000 registered voters who did not provide proof of citizenship as required by law.
Secretary Fontes must release the list by Monday.
Fontes previously claimed a computer glitch allowed more than 200,000 people in Arizona to register without proof of citizenship so America First Legal sued him on behalf of Strong Communities Foundation of Arizona, known as “EZAZ.org.”
