President Donald Trump plans to announce Monday that using Tylenol during pregnancy could contribute to autism risk and will advise pregnant women only to use it, or generic acetaminophen, for high fevers, two senior administration officials told POLITICO. The officials, granted anonymity to share details of the announcement in advance, said Trump would also highlight leucovorin, a cancer and anemia drug, as a potential therapy for people with autism.

The Charlie Kirk Memorial [Updated]
0 replies
The Charlie Kirk memorial was a phenomenon. Something like 200,000 people showed up for it in Phoenix, and around 70,000 were inside the stadium. Millions watched online and on television. I think we are only beginning to see the consequences of Kirk’s murder by Tyler Robinson. They may be more profound than we could have guessed, eleven days ago.
Here are a few observations on the memorial:
* It went on for a long, long time. People were filing into the stadium hours before it actually got under way, with Christian music being performed from the stage. Some people must have been in the stadium for five hours or more.
Elon Musk and President Donald Trump were seen warmly greeting each other at Charlie Kirk's memorial service at State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday, marking their first public meeting since their highly publicized fallout earlier this summer.
Why It Matters
The potential reconciliation between Trump and Musk represents a significant political development, given their relationship deteriorated dramatically over disagreements about the president's "Big Beautiful Bill" spending legislation this summer.
The White House brushed off Musk's attacks on Trump as an "unfortunate episode." Press secretary Karoline Leavitt told Newsweek in June
President Donald Trump delivered remarks Sunday at Charlie Kirk’s tribute service in Glendale, Arizona, recalling the Turning Point USA founder’s influence on college campuses and his role in shaping national politics. Trump spoke of Kirk’s determination to take his message to universities long dominated by non-conservative students and faculty, describing how those campuses shifted as Kirk built chapters and engaged students directly.
“He was taking over college campuses, colleges that had, in theory, only very liberal or, as they like to say, ‘progressive.’ I call them liberal, but they like to call themselves such a beautiful word, ‘progressive.’ They’re the opposite of progressive,

Vice President JD Vance told the memorial audience for Charlie Kirk that Christianity is essential for good politics.
“I have talked more about Jesus Christ in the past two weeks than my entire time in public life,” he declared to the Arizona and national TV audience. The attendees roared their approval as Vance continued:
I always felt a little uncomfortable talking about my faith in public, as much as I love the Lord and as much as it was an important part of my life… Charlie knew that we were all children of God. He knew deep down the truth of Scripture, and from that confidence, everything else flowed.
President Donald Trump and numerous top officials from the administration mourned the late conservative activist Charlie Kirk at his memorial Sunday.
In his address about Kirk’s legacy and what his assassination means for conservatives moving forward, Trump, who throughout his political career had a personal relationship with Kirk, mourned the 31-year-old, whom he called a martyr for American freedom.
“He did what was right for our nation,” Trump said. “Our greatest evangelist for American liberty became immortal.”
GLENDALE, Arizona — Erika Kirk revealed that she forgives the man who killed her husband Charlie and preached unity and peace in a stunning, searing speech that left mourners speechless and crying on Sunday.
“He wanted to save young men. Just like the one who took his life,” Kirk’s widow said through tears, speaking behind the presidential seal on stage at State Farm Stadium.
She added: “I forgive him because it was what Christ did. And what Charlie would do.” “The answer to hate is not hate. The answer we know from the gospel is love and always love.
Tens of thousands of people packed into the State Farm Stadium in Glendale, Arizona, on Sunday to honor the life of Charlie Kirk, with local outlets reporting that the crowd size could “exceed” those of NFL football games.
Worship music began as Kirk’s fans, friends, and family poured into the venue at 9:00 a.m. local time, after many people even camped outside Saturday night to secure their places in line: Headliners of the event include President Donald Trump, Vice President JD Vance, Secretary of State Marco Rubio, War Secretary Pete Hegseth, and Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., AZCentral reported.
Normally, when I see a person wearing a t-shirt with an American flag and an eagle, I think, “patriot” and probably MAGA. Now, though, I’m having my doubts. Instead, I think we’re going to discover that a lot of venomously anti-MAGA people will be parading around in black t-shirts with flags and eagles on them as an homage to Charlie Kirk’s murderer, who wore that shirt when he pulled the trigger.
We’re all painfully familiar by now with the image showing Kirk’s killer right before the shooting:
We've been covering the furor on the left over the suspension of Jimmy Kimmel's show. Kimmel made comments on ABC's "Jimmy Kimmel Live!" implying that the suspect in the Charlie Kirk killing was MAGA, and claiming MAGA was trying to capitalize on Kirk's murder.
ABC "indefinitely preempted" Kimmel's show on Wednesday, when many of their affiliate stations decided not to run the show.
Folks on the left freaked out, claiming that this was President Donald Trump shutting down free speech. They seemed more upset about the Kimmel suspension than about the killing of Charlie Kirk. However, the powers that be

From CNBC,
Dow, S&P 500 close at fresh records, log big gains for the week after Fed rate cut.
The S&P 500 index was up 0.5 percent on the day and up almost 1 percent for the week. CNBC quotes a market analyst,
While September has historically delivered pullbacks, this year’s market has defied that pattern — climbing 35% since March with strong technical and fundamental tailwinds.
Meanwhile, things aren’t so rosy in the land of the Mouse. Stock for the Walt Disney Company (ticker symbol: DIS) was down almost 1 percent today and down more than two percent for the week. Disney, of course,
Unemployment: blue state blues

The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) issued state-level unemployment statistics this morning and it was mostly bad news for jurisdictions that backed Kamala Harris last year.
The headline,
August jobless rates up in 3 states, down in 2; payroll jobs up in 1 state.
I’ve spare you the suspense. Jobs were up significantly in Utah (Trump +21) and down in the District of Columbia (Harris +86). The unemployment rate was down in Alabama (Trump +31) and Colorado (Harris +11). Unemployment was up in Delaware (Harris +15), Maryland (Harris +29) and Minnesota (Harris +4).

Obama Is a Soulless Fraud
17 replies
Barack Obama is such a soulless fraud. He’s spent the last week trying to downplay the significance of Charlie Kirk’s assassination. First, he pretended that the motive behind Charlie’s murder was impossible to ascertain. Then he blamed President Trump for welcoming “extremism” into the White House. Finally, he insinuated that Charlie was a racist and at least partially responsible for his own death. As always, America’s foremost “divider in chief” excels at rubbing salt in gaping wounds.
The Soros network of NGOs must have recently sent out marching orders instructing Democrats to speak favorably of Obama’s presidency because every prominent Donkey Party politician has tried to rewrite Obama’s divisive reign
A number of show business, news media, and political personages have proclaimed vile comments, cheering the murder of Christian conservative Charlie Kirk.
So, too, have entertainment-industry has-beens who grab for modern relevance. None will be named by this writer, who doesn’t wish to aid miserable lost souls’ quests.
I believe there are at least two reasons some celebrities acquit themselves so despicably.
First, unfortunately, a hatred market exists. Just as there are garbage-hearted people with wallets, there breathe conscienceless graspers with big eyes. Whether someone is selling a candidacy, a movie ticket, a TV program, a recording, or any other commodity, market cultivation is surely a consideration.
If Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez plans to run for president in 2028, she’s just made the biggest mistake of her political career. That speech of hers will be written in ink, and it will haunt her for years to come. Why? Because she didn’t know the first thing about Charlie Kirk, and everyone who watched her give that speech knows she’s either ignorant or lying.
We know that on the Left, they do not believe in any kind of presumption of innocence when it comes to words. Words are harm. Words are violence. Most of all, words define who you are.
Canada, Australia, and the United Kingdom recognized a Palestinian state on Sept. 21.
The announcement was made ahead of the U.N. General Assembly in New York City; the countries had pledged to recognize a Palestinian state before the summit.
“Today, to revive the hope of peace for the Palestinians and Israelis, and a two state solution, the United Kingdom formally recognizes the State of Palestine,” British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said in a statement.“Since 1947, it has been the policy of every Canadian government to support a two-state solution for lasting peace in the Middle East,” Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said in a statement

President Donald Trump’slatest plan to overhaul the American immigration system has left some immigrant workers confused, forcing the White House on Saturday to scramble to clarify that a new $100,000 fee on visas for skilled tech workers only applies to new applicants and not to current visa holders.
The president on Friday, with Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick by his side, signed a proclamation that will require the new fee for what are known as H-1B visas — meant for high-skilled jobs that tech companies find hard to fill.
President Donald Trump put the heat on Attorney General Pam Bondi Saturday, demanding the prosecution of a list of adversaries in a social media post that he quickly deleted.[snip]the president called for charges against former FBI Director James Comey, Sen. Adam Schiff, D-Calif., and New York Attorney General Letitia James—slamming Bondi for "all talk, no action." "Pam: I have reviewed over 30 statements and posts saying that, essentially, "same old story as last time, all talk, no action. Nothing is being done. What about Comey, Adam "Shifty" Schiff, Leticia??? They’re all guilty as hell, but nothing is going to be done."
She finally answered a question, and it was a nightmare. We can see why Democratic Virginia gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger’s people have been trying to keep her away from the media. If this were a dangling of one’s foot into that pool, they’re likely going to whisk her away, because this was a hefty helping of word salad over a simple question: Do you support men in women’s bathrooms? The question was pitched to her by WJLA’s Nick Minock.
Here's how she responded: [video]
Does California Governor Gavin Newsom want his state to remain a part of our federal union?
Newsom does not like our president. The fact that Donald Trump is a member of the opposing party is immaterial to the governor's critique of the United States federal government. Newsom doesn't like to be told how to run his far-left-wing, kooky, dystopian nightmare of a state. In fact, Newsom rejects any effort Washington makes to exert control over federal policy in California.
It's not just immigration enforcement. Newsom has been resisting federal rules on auto emissions, Clean Air Act waivers, and the removal of EV mandates.

Democrats have surely heard the sage advice that when you’re in a hole, drop the shovel and walk away.
But they aren’t listening, and are still digging themselves in deeper and further out of favor.
With the party out of power and wildly unpopular, last week demonstrated that many leading Dems are not just clueless — they’re also heartless.

118 House Democrats Refuse To Vote For

Resolution Condemning Charlie Kirk’s Assassination 10 replies
Some Democrats claim to want “unity” in the wake of the far-left political violence they fomented, but it is hard to believe they want anything other than to be absolved of responsibility when 118 of them in the House refuse to officially condemn the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
The House of Representatives passed House Resolution 719, condemning Kirk’s assassination and “Honoring the life and legacy of Charles ‘Charlie’ James Kirk,” on Friday 310-58. While 95 Democrats voted in favor of the resolution, more than half of the Democrats in the House either voted against it or decided not to support it by voting “present” or not voting at all.
It’s been one week since Kirk was shot dead while debating on a college campus, and the Right is reacting more viscerally than we’ve seen from it in recent memory. Not only that, but we’re seeing worldwide support for Kirk, mass demonstrations against illegal immigration in Europe, the fall of France’s government, and a grassroots movement saying, “Enough is enough,” here in America. Victor Davis Hanson analyzes the events that pushed the West to its boiling point and where we go from here on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.”
Golf legend Phil Mickelson took aim at Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., on Saturday after the controversial congresswoman insulted Charlie Kirk and his legacy. During an interview on CNN, Omar addressed her recent social media posts in which she called Kirk "Dr. Frankenstein," doubling down on those comments and saying his legacy should be left in the "dustbin of history."[snip] Mickelson responded to Omar's comments in a post on X, saying he hopes she's "sent back to Somalia soon."
"Ilhan spews hate every time she opens her mouth, she came here fraudulently and will hopefully be sent back to Somalia soon," Mickelson wrote.
