No Virginia, Abortion isn’t the number one issue. We’re only weeks away from election day. And the radical extremists are still telling us that the number one issue with voters is killing babies.
Most polls and even the MSM admits that the economy with inflation is what’s on most voters minds. And are you better off under Harris vs. Trump.
Sure the loons out there want you to think that all the voters are for the killing of children. But that’s not the case.
Bits and pieces on the illiterate one. Kamala.
Bill Whitaker: “Was democracy best served by President Biden stepping down and basically handing you a nomination? You didn’t have to go through a primary process. You didn’t have to fight off other contenders. That’s not really the way our system was intended to work.”
Kamala Harris: “President Biden made a decision that I think history is going to show is rare among leaders, which was to put country before self. And I am proud to have earned the support of the vast majority of delegates.”
But Whitaker wasn’t buying it. He added, “But I think this truncated process is why people think or say they don’t really know who you are.”
Bill Whitaker: “You recently visited the southern border and– embraced President Biden’s recent crackdown on asylum seekers. And that crackdown produced an almost immediate and dramatic decrease in the number of border crossings. If that’s the right answer now, why didn’t your administration take those steps in 2021?”
Kamala Harris: “The first bill we proposed to Congress was to fix our broken immigration system, knowing that if you want to actually fix it, we need Congress to act. It was not taken up. Fast forward to a moment when a bipartisan group of members of the United States Senate, including one of the most conservative members of the United States Senate, got together, came up with the border security bill. Well, guess what happened? Donald Trump got word that this bill was afoot and could be passed and he wants to run on a problem instead of fixing a problem, so he told his buddies in Congress, ‘Kill the bill. Don’t let it move forward.'”
Bill Whitaker: “But there was an historic flood of undocumented immigrants coming across the border the first three years of your administration. As a matter of fact, arrivals quadrupled from the last year of President Trump. Was it a mistake to loosen the immigration policies as much as you did?”
Kamala Harris: “It’s a longstanding problem. And solutions are at hand. And from day one, literally, we have been offering solutions.”

Latest on the 2024 Election. Let’s see what the latest is on Harris and Trump.
Some Harris nonsense.
WHITAKER: Pardon me, Madam Vice President. The question was, how are you going to pay for it?
HARRIS: Well, one of the things, I’m gonna make sure that the richest among us, who can afford it, pay their fair share of taxes. It is not right that teachers and nurses and firefighters are paying a higher tax rate than billionaires and the biggest corporations, and I plan on making that fair.
WHITAKER: But we are dealing with the real world here.
HARRIS: But the real world includes…
WHITAKER: How are you going to get this through Congress?
HARRIS: You know, when you talk quietly with a lot of folks in Congress, they know exactly what I’m talking about because their constituents know exactly what I’m talking about. Their constituents are those firefighters and teachers and nurses.
Looking good.

The RNC and Michigan GOP won a major lawsuit against Michigan Democrat officials for failing to verify absentee ballots.
In September Michigan Republicans sued Michigan’s Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson for violating election security law.
The lawsuit alleged that SOS Benson failed to follow Michigan laws that require implementation of ballot number matching on the ballot, poll book, and ballot return envelope to ensure that ballots are accurately cast and counted. Win number 10 in Michigan.
The Republican National Committee (RNC), along with the Georgia Republican Party and the Fulton County Republican Party, has filed a lawsuit against Nadine Williams, the Director of Fulton County Department of Registration & Elections.
The lawsuit alleges that Williams intentionally excluded qualified Republican poll workers from the hiring process for the upcoming November 2024 election, hiring only 15 Republicans out of 804 total election staff.
An Ohio judicial panel on Saturday rejected an attempt by a far-left nonprofit group to issue arrest warrants for former President Donald Trump and Ohio Senator JD Vance.
The group had accused the two Republican leaders of spreading “false claims” regarding Haitian migrants in Springfield, Ohio, including reports of migrants consuming pets and wildlife.

You make the call. Was the military called in by Trump, but ignored by the Military and Secretary of Defense? We now have what some say is absolute proof that Trump wanted the military for January 6th, and his orders were ignored. You make the call.
DoD Transcripts One Pager FINAL (house.gov)
CHAIRMAN BARRYLOUDERMILK @OVERSIGHTADMN
@REPLOUDERMILK
The DOD IG claims that the actions at the Pentagon were “reasonable in light of the circumstances” at the
Capitol on January 6, 2021. The IG also determined that “DoD officials did not delay or obstruct the
DOD’s response to the [U.S. Capitol Police’s] [Request for Assistance] on January 6, 2021.”
THE TRANSCRIPTS REVEAL OTHERWISE.
COMMANDING GENERAL WILLIAM WALKER, D.C. NATIONAL GUARD:
“My thoughts are that there has to be something else at play here. Why is there such a concern about
proximity to the Capitol? We hadn’t had that before.” *
“[General Piatt said] at 2:42pm “It would not be his best military advice to send the National Guard to the U.S.
Capitol at thistime….Military presence could make the situation worse and the optics were bad.” *
COLONEL EARL MATTHEWS, D.C. NATIONAL GUARD:
“The D.C. Guard could’ve gone in right away. But the Secretary of the Army did not give us the
approval.”*
“There was concern about being anywhere near the Capitol because of perception that the military would be
involved, that there would be militarization of the electoral process.”*
“We were seeing the Congress of the United States being overrun, and the Guard — and the Capitol Police, the
MPD need help. We had people at the D.C. Armory who are able to help, and they’re not moving. And they’re
not allowed to move. They’re not allowed to go down there.” *
“It’d be like, if there’s a five-alarm fire and you’re telling a volunteer fire company, “Don’t go respond to the
fire. Go to trees and pull cats or dogs out of trees to free up firemen to respond to the real fire.” I mean, it’s
ridiculous.” *
COMMAND SERGEANT MAJOR MICHAEL BROOKS, D.C. NATIONAL GUARD:
“They were ready to go, and they just couldn’t understand why they were still sitting there. Literally sitting
on a bus, just waiting to drive to the Capitol and do the best they could do to support Capitol Police.” *
“People were like, “Why weren’t you there?” We were. We were waiting.” *
“We repeatedly told them, “We know what we’re doing. We just need you to give us the authorization” *
BRIGADIER GENERAL AARON DEAN, ADJUTANT GENERAL, D.C. NATIONAL GUARD:
“I thought to myself, “Okay. I’m not sure why we’re concerned about optics when it comes to, you know, saving
lives and preventing damage and loss of property, but okay.” *
“The lull time between that 2:30pm call and 5 o’clock, just nothing. It was like, that’s a little odd — very odd.
It put us in a bad situation, because we wanted to respond but we couldn’t. So we were just left there waiting
on word.” *
GENERAL WALTER PIATT, DIRECTOR OF ARMY STAFF:
“What we were afraid of is that military assets would be employed without military command, and that
weighed in heavily when forces were requested in support of January 6.” *
CHRISTOPHER RODRIGUEZ, D.C. HOMELAND SECURITY AND EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT:
“So, it kind of shocked me, because we had a situation where the Metropolitan Police Department had been
on the scene at the Capitol for over an hour at that point, and we couldn’t get any additional support from
DOD.” *

OVERSIGHT:
Fact checking ABC and Harris.
Last night we had the debate. For some reason the ABC moderators did a fact check on Trump seven times. But for some reason didn’t fact check Harris. So let’s look at the Harris lies.
Many of their fact-checks were incorrect or incomplete. A list of the seven most obvious examples follows (quotes taken from the ABC News transcript):
Trump to Implement his Project 2025.
False. Trump had nothing to do with 2025. A Heritage Foundation wish list.
Harris claim of never favoring a Fracking ban.
False. During a CNN town hall on climate change in 2019 when she was still a Senator, Harris said, “There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking.”
Harris claimed that Trump would sign a National Abortion Ban.
False. Trump has said he has “no regrets” in selecting the Supreme Court justices who overturned the constitutional right to an abortion. But he also repeatedly has promised that if elected, he will not sign a federal abortion ban into law and will leave the issue up to the states.
Trump left us the worst unemployment since the Great Depression.
False. Unemployment rapidly declined to 6.4% in January 2021 by the time Trump left office, as the economy started to rebalance. And that 6.4% unemployment rate is still better than the 10% peak during the Great Recession in October 2009.
If you eliminate pandemic statistics, the lowest unemployment rate under Trump was just slightly higher than the lowest point under Biden. Both were good: 3.5% under Trump and 3.4% under Biden at their lowest respectively, according to data provided by the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis and Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Comments will have more fact checks.
How do you make your state totally dependent on oil from countries like Venezuela?
The governor of California just figured out a way to eliminate all the oil refineries in California. This man comes up with some of the most craziest ideas known to mankind. This from KTLA5.
On Thursday, Gov. Gavin Newsom announced a new proposal that would require oil refineries to keep a minimum supply of fuel reserves in hopes of avoiding future supply shortages and price hikes for consumers.
The governor’s plan would direct the California Energy Commission to require petroleum refiners to follow the new guidelines. The governor hopes the proposal will help keep supply and prices stable even when refineries undergo maintenance.
Penalties would be imposed on refiners who fail to follow the new guidelines. So what happens to prices when you no longer have an oil industry?
By Bob Unruh for WND Published July 8, 2024 at 12:34pmPhysicians who were threatened and abused by various tyrannical credentialing boards that sought to suppress anything but the official government story line about COVID-19 have been given the go-ahead by the courts to sue.
The case was brought by the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons Education Foundation against the American Board of Internal Medicine, the American Board of Obstetrics and Gynecology, the American Board of Family Medicine and the secretary of the Department of Homeland Security over various situations in which those organizations threatened or actually acted against doctors because of what they said about COVID.
Their medical opinions essentially contradicted the government’s talking points about taking various experimental shots, which evidence now shows have been extremely damaging to thousands of people.
The challenge focused on the coordinated campaigns to “censor and chill the speech of physicians,” with special targeting of those who criticized the unfounded positions taken by White House adviser Anthony Fauci, lockdowns, masks and more.
A district judge had claimed that the AAPS “lacked standing,” but a decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 5th Circuit has reversed that dismissal.
It’s headed back to the lower courts for discovery, and potentially a full trial.
A report in the Federalist documented the ruling.
“The AAPS Educational Foundation brought the case because of a series of physicians who were being threatened with loss of their board certification because they had made comments that were either critical of the COVID0 vaccines or that advocated for early treatment with repurposed drugs,” explained AAPS chief Jane Orient.
“Particularly bad were the three defendants of the internal board who were also engaged in threatening physicians who supported the overturning of Roe v. Wade or had anything to say about abortion and its side effects.”
Dr. Ryan Cole, Sen. Ron Johnson, R-Wisc., and Dr. Peter McCullough at a roundtable in Washington, D.C., on the COVID-19 vaccines and the link to injuries
The case also cited the egregious censorship schemes that were being developed by Homeland Security’s Disinformation Governance Board which, Orient explained, “was devoted to seeking out and finding ‘disinformation,’ ‘malinformation,’ and, or pressuring people, including those on specialty boards and social media companies, to take action.”
Public outrage that the government would assemble such a force prompted that particular coalition to be disbanded, but that doesn’t mean that scheme has been abandoned.
When physicians made public comments, press comments, testified in hearings – and their statements did not align with the Biden administration’s political agenda – they were threatened with loss of their credentials, which in many cases could mean the loss of their income.
The power structure simply labeled, without evidence, dissenting opinions as “misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation,” the case charged.
One facing punishment was Dr. Peter McCullough, a professor of medicine for decades, who was forced into independent practice over his views after those in “academic practice” refused to allow him free speech.
He questioned, during a state legislative hearing, the experimental shots, and the ABIM later adopted a rule about “misinformation” and retroactively applied it to him, the report said.
McCullough confirmed to The Federalist he provided documentation and evidence regarding his opinions on COVID, but the organization refused to accept it.
The power structure lined up against the dissenting doctors including those credentialing agencies as well as insurance companies that would refuse to provide compensation for treatment if the doctor’s opinion differed from theirs.
Lawyer Andrew Schlafly, litigating for AAPS, said, “Viewpoint-based censorship of freedom of speech is one of the most important issues today, and essential to the future of both our country and the ability of patients to obtain quality medical care. It is vital that we restore freedom of speech and end improper interference with it. Physicians must be able to speak candidly about issues of public concern without fear of retaliation.”
Exposing the eight year lie. There were good people on both sides. Just ask Snopes. For eight years Biden has spewed the lie that President Trump was glorifying the hate group on the right. He wasn’t. Conservative media within a day played the video where Trump condemned the violence from the right and spoke about the peaceful groups. MSM repeated Bidens lie. Now this finally after eight years of lies. From Snopes.

Context
In a news conference after the rally protesting the planned removal of a Confederate statue, Trump did say there were “very fine people on both sides,” referring to the protesters and the counterprotesters. He said in the same statement he wasn’t talking about neo-Nazis and white nationalists, who he said should be “condemned totally.”
When is a vaccine not a vaccine? Sometimes when the court says so. A panel on the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals restored a case against the Los Angeles Unified School District, allowing employees to sue to prevent future vaccine mandates.
Not only did folks got a right to sue over COVID mandates, but the court also ruled that the COVID vaccine did not do what the folks at the LA school district said it would do.
In a contentious case involving the Health Freedom Defense Fund and other plaintiffs versus the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD), the court has declared that mRNA COVID-19 injections do not qualify as vaccines under traditional medical definitions.
The judges in the majority wrote this case was different because they found L.A. Unified demonstrated a pattern of “withdrawing and reinstating its vaccination policies” over the course of the lawsuit.
“Accordingly, LAUSD has not carried its heavy burden to show that there is no reasonable possibility that it will again revert to imposing a similar policy,” the opinion states wrote.
MORE LAWFARE! (They’ll be coming for others soon) Epoch Times CFO Arrested and Charged with $67 Million Money Laundering Scheme
The chief financial officer of conservative global news outlet The Epoch Times has been arrested and charged with leading a yearslong scheme to launder at least $67 million in illicit funds, federal prosecutors said Monday.
The scheme — which involved cryptocurrency, tens of thousands of prepaid debit cards, fraudulently obtained unemployment insurance benefits and stolen personal information — fueled a massive increase in The Epoch Times’ reported annual revenue, prosecutors alleged.
Weidong “Bill” Guan, 61, is charged in U.S. District Court in lower Manhattan with one count of conspiracy to commit money laundering and two counts of bank fraud.
Guan was arrested Sunday morning, and pleaded not guilty on Monday afternoon before a federal magistrate judge in Manhattan, according to a court notice. He was released on a $3 million personal recognizance bond, and his travel is restricted to parts of New York and New Jersey, among other restrictions. [Guess they’re trying to look more ‘even-handed’ –TPR]
Guan “conspired with others to benefit himself, the media company, and its affiliates by laundering tens of millions of dollars in fraudulently obtained unemployment insurance benefits and other crime proceeds,” U.S. Attorney Damian Williams said in a statement.
“When banks raised questions about the funds, Guan allegedly lied repeatedly and falsely claimed that the funds came from legitimate donations to the media company,” Williams said.
The Epoch Times is not mentioned by name in the indictment. But Guan is listed as Epoch Times’ chief financial officer on the nonprofit media company’s most recent tax return, filed in late 2023.
Prosecutors alleged the money laundering scheme benefited “a multinational media company headquartered in Manhattan, New York.” The Epoch Times is headquartered on West 28th Street in Manhattan.
Prosecutors allege the scheme by Guan and his co-conspirators caused the company’s revenue to jump from “approximately $15 million to approximately $62 million” between 2019 and 2020.
According to The Epoch Times’ publicly available IRS nonprofit tax returns, in 2019 the company reported program revenue of $15.5 million. The following year, The Epoch Times reported tax-exempt revenue of $62.7 million.
Guan, a resident of Secaucus, New Jersey, managed the Epoch Times’ “Make Money Online team,” which carried out the scheme to buy “crime proceeds” and transfer them to bank accounts linked to the media outlet, according to his indictment.
From 2020 to 2024, the team allegedly used a crypto platform to buy tens of millions of dollars in crime proceeds at discounted rates, of 70 to 80 cents on the dollar, in exchange for cryptocurrency. The crime proceeds, which came from sources including “fraudulently obtained unemployment insurance benefits,” were loaded onto tens of thousands of prepaid debit cards, prosecutors alleged.
After purchasing the crime proceeds, participants allegedly used stolen personally identifiable information to open various types of accounts and transfer the proceeds into bank accounts linked with the media outlet and related entities.
They were often laundered again through other accounts, including Guan’s own personal bank and crypto accounts, according to prosecutors.
To hide the illegal nature of the proceeds, Guan and his co-conspirators allegedly lied to banks and other entities about their sources.
An attorney for Guan could not immediately be reached, but a case docket showed late Monday that Guan had been appointed a public defender.
A spokesperson for the Manhattan U.S. Attorney’s Office declined to provide any additional comment on the indictment against Guan, which was filed in late May and unsealed Monday.
The bank fraud counts each carry a maximum sentence of 30 years in prison, while the conspiracy holds a 20-year maximum prison sentence. The charges against Guan “do not relate to the Media Company’s newsgathering activities,” the Department of Justice noted in a press release.
