Harris rejects religious exemptions for abortion

 By David Zimmermann  | National Review Vice President Kamala Harris said Tuesday night she would reject religious exemptions for abortion as president, effectively forcing health-care providers to perform the medical procedure in violation of their moral conscience. The Democratic presidential nominee has been adamant about passing a bill that would codify Roe v. Wade into law, despite the Supreme Court overturning that decision in 2022. In an interview with NBC News anchor Hallie Jackson, Harris indicated she would refuse to compromise with Republican lawmakers on the abortion legislation. “I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body,” Harris said when asked if sh...

Walcher: A new national sacrifice zone in effort to move beyond oil & gas?

By Greg Walcher | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice A couple years ago a little-noticed report called, “Beyond Carbon-Free: A Framework for Purpose-Led Renewable Energy Procurement and Development” was published by an energy company in Seattle, together with the Nature Conservancy and the National Audubon Society. It suggested that the goal of net-zero carbon emissions would require “massive areas of land for development,” perhaps “a footprint of 228,000 square miles – a land area greater than that of Wyoming and Colorado, combined.” With a gift for understatement, the authors wrote that “This tremendous need for land poses significant land-use challenges, and the potential for unintended consequences on both local communities and natural habitats.” Oh well, the report said, “In to...

Democrats fear race may be slipping away from Harris

By Amie Parnes  | The Hill There is growing fear in Democratic circles that the presidential race could be slipping further away from Vice President Harris. To be sure, Democrats still think Harris can defeat former President Trump. The margins are so close in the seven battleground states likely to decide the contest, a shift toward either candidate or a mistake in the polling could be decisive.  At the same time, Democrats are privately expressing worry that battleground polling appears to be moving in Trump’s direction over the last two weeks.

Mark Halperin says ‘Trump’s going to be president on Election Day’ if early vote holds up

By Jason Cohen  | Daily Caller Journalist Mark Halperin said Tuesday that former President Donald Trump will secure victory on Nov. 5 if early voting trends hold. While Democrats maintain a significant lead in early voter turnout, Republicans have cut the gap compared to 2020, The Wall Street Journal reported Monday. Halperin, on his 2WAY platform, said all the analysts he has spoken to since Monday believe Trump will win if this trend continues, as Democrats will be unable to combat Republicans’ early vote gains on Election Day. Gabbard recently joined the Trump campaign as an honorary co-chair for the former president's transition team alongside Robert F. Kennedy Jr., another former Democrat.

Spakovsky: No, Elon Musk is not breaking federal election law

By  Hans von Spakovsky , Commentary | Daily Signal Despite what you may hear from leftist so-called election law “experts,” Elon Musk is not violating federal law with his America PAC’s million-dollar lottery for registered voters who sign his “Petition in Favor of Free Speech and the Rights to Bear Arms.” Those who mistakenly claim otherwise are ignoring the terms of the petition and the text of the applicable federal statute in order to take a swipe at Musk. Musk’s very vocal support for the First Amendment, which he says is under “relentless” attack, is nothing new. He announced in April that he would fund a national signature campaign in support of free speech, and he’s frequently said defending free speech is one of the main ...

Poff: ‘The ‘single woke female’ election

By  Jeremiah Poff, Commentary | Washington Examiner To the Democratic Party and the future political prospects of Vice President Kamala Harris, there is no constituency more important than single women. When it comes to relationship status, no factor is more of a predictor that a woman will vote for the Democratic Party than that she is single. On the flip side, no factor is more of a predictor for a woman voting for the Republican Party than that she is married. According to data from the Pew Research Center, 50% of married women are registered Republicans, while 45% are registered Democrats. But 72% of never-married women are registered Democrats, while a meager 24% are registered Republicans. By contrast, the partisan split among men is muc...

Ex-Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries, partner arrested in twisted scheme to sexually exploit male models

By  Emily Crane, Georgett Roberts and Priscilla DeGregory | New York Post Former Abercrombie & Fitch CEO Mike Jeffries, his male partner and a middleman preyed on and horrifically abused more than a dozen young aspiring male models as part of a twisted sex-trafficking and prostitution ring, federal prosecutors said Tuesday. Jeffries, 80, allegedly wielded his “power, wealth and his influence” to traffic scores of men for his own sexual pleasure for nearly a decade — often dangling the promise of modeling careers in their faces, according to the feds. The disgraced fashion boss — who infamously had shirtless young male lifeguards and models parading outside Abercrombie stores and events during his time at the helm of the company — worked the depraved trafficking ...
