Domenech: Kamala Harris embraces a Liz-Cheney-sized mistake

By Ben Domenech | Commentary, The Spectator Welcome to Thunderdome. Liz Cheney is campaigning with Kamala Harris today in Wisconsin at Ripon, known as the birthplace of the Republican Party at the Little White Schoolhouse. It was there in 1854 at a church meeting that Whig and Free Soil Party members gathered to form a “great irresistible Northern party, organized on the single issue of the non-extension of slavery.” This was even then pretty aggressive language for the Episcopalian who called the meeting, but not for Horace Greeley, who publicized it to the nation. Whatever Liz Cheney says today about how important it is to elect Kamala Harris will no doubt equal the historical significance of that moment, at least according to Rachel Maddow. But I’m here to tell you that thi...

‘High risk noncitizens’ without IDs flying across U.S.

By  Bethany Blankley | The Center Square Twenty-three years after Islamic terrorists used airplanes to conduct the worst terrorist attack on U.S. soil, the federal agency created to protect Americans from national security threats “cannot ensure they are keeping high-risk noncitizens without identification from entering the country.”  The potentially high-risk noncitizens are being flown on domestic flights without identification, creating a public safety risk, according to the latest Office of Inspector General report assessing several federal agencies within the U.S. Department of Homeland Security. The OIG has repeatedly published reports identifying potential national security risks created by Biden-Harris policies identified within DHS and its subagencies. READ THE FU...

Firefighters union declines to endorse Kamala Harris for president after being first to back Biden in 2020

By  Hannah Nightingale | The Post Millennial On Thursday, the International Association of Fire Fighters announced that it would not be endorsing any candidate in the 2024 presidential election. This comes after the union’s executive board had backed Joe Biden’s White House bid in 2020. IAFF President Edward Kelly said that the union’s executive board voted by a margin of just 1.2 percent not to endorse Democratic candidate Kamala Harris or GOP candidate Donald Trump. "Over the past year, the IAFF took unprecedented steps to hear our members’ views on the candidates and the policy issues that matter most to them," Kelly said. "As we have over our 106-year history, the IAFF will continue its work to improve the lives of firefighters and their families. The IAFF Execut...

FEMA’s failure leaves Hurricane Helene victims crying out for help

By  M.D. Kittle | The Federalist The washed-out, mud-caked roads and bridges of Madison County, N.C., the river-ravaged homes and businesses in county seat Marshall, and the desperation of the Appalachian inhabitants are all testament to the merciless destruction of Hurricane Helene.  That so many remain lost, trapped, hungry, and hopeless a week after the hurricane unleashed historic rains and horrific flooding is testament, some residents and family members say, to the abject incompetence of the Biden-Harris administration and its ill-prepared Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA). Sarah Parkhurst, of Montgomery, Ala., born and raised in the small-town shadows of Asheville, N.C., tells The Federalist that she thanks God for the private citizens that have len...

Supreme Court to decide if Mexico can sue firearms makers over cartel violence

By Kaelan Deese | Washington Examiner The U.S. Supreme Court has agreed to review a significant case that could determine whether Mexico can bring a $10 billion lawsuit against U.S. gun manufacturers for allegedly facilitating the flow of firearms to drug cartels. The case, revived by a federal appeals court, challenges the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act (PLCAA), a 2005 law that generally shields gun manufacturers from civil liability when their products are used in criminal activities. A lower court initially dismissed Mexico’s lawsuit based on this law, but the 1st Circuit Court ruled that Mexico’s claims fit an exemption in the PLCAA, allowing the suit to move forward. Mexico argues that U.S. gun manufacturers, such as Smith & Wesson, are culp...

Mile High Red Cross calling on volunteers to help with Hurricane Helene recovery efforts

By Ashley Portillo | CBS Colorado Hurricane Helene caused widespread devastation, and because of the magnitude of just how large the storm was, the American Red Cross Mile High Area in Denver is making an urgent plea for more volunteers to help out at disaster shelters. As of this week, more than 1,000 Red Cross volunteers and disaster responders from across the country are boots-on-the-ground, helping those recovering in 10 states devastated by Hurricane Helene. That includes North Carolina, Tennessee and Florida. Norman Deeba, of Broomfield, and Pam Pickle, of Red Feather Lakes, are two of approximately 30 Coloradans currently on deployment helping during the aftermath of the storm.

Obama to campaign for Harris in Pennsylvania, other key states

By Michael Dorgan , Paul Steinhauser  | Fox News Former President Obama is preparing to hit the campaign trail next week for Vice President Harris, focusing on key battleground states in the lead up to Election Day, according to a senior campaign official with anonymity to discuss the matter. Obama, who served back-to-back terms as president from 2009 through 2017, will kick off his drive in the Pittsburgh area of Pennsylvania on Thursday, a state which remains one of the tightest contests in the nation and which could tip the scales for either candidate.  A Fox News survey of Pennsylvania voters last week found Harris narrowly ahead of Trump by 2 points (50-48%) among registered voters, while the race is tied at 49% each among likely voters. President Bid...

Dockworkers’ union reaches tentative agreement, will suspend port strike until January

By Bradford Betz | Fox Business Striking U.S. dockworkers will return to work Friday after reaching a tentative agreement with employers on an improved wage offer. The conditional offer was for a 62% wage increase, FOX Business has learned.  The offer is on the table for the next 90 days. If no deal is reached within that timeframe, the proposed wage hike will be pulled from the table.  The International Longshoremen’s Association, which represents 45,000 striking U.S. workers, said the union and USMX have reached a "tentative agreement on wages and have agreed to extend the Master Contract until January 15, 2025 to return to the bargaining table to negotiate all other outstanding issues."  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX BUSINESS

Thousands of noncitizens removed from voter rolls, dozens of lawmakers want answers from Garland

 By Adam Shaw | Fox News Dozens of lawmakers in the House and Senate are calling for more information from the Justice Department about efforts to stop noncitizen voting in federal elections, which they call a "serious threat" to election integrity, citing officials in multiple states who have identified noncitizens on their voter rolls. A letter from 73 lawmakers, led by Sen. Bill Hagerty, R-Tenn., and Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Ariz., sent to Attorney General Merrick Garland said they were "deeply concerned" by reports of noncitizens registering to vote and voting in federal elections and had not received a response from an inquiry in July on the matter. "As of today, there has been no response from you or your Department regarding the inquiry on July 12, 2024, seeking information on ef...
