Swearer: On the 2nd Amendment, Harris shoots herself in foot—again

By Amy Swearer  | Commentary, Daily Signal It’s hard to reconcile Vice President Kamala Harris’ friendly overtures to gun owners with the footage that recently emerged of a 2007 press conference in which the then-district attorney of San Francisco said cops could conduct random home inspections to enforce compliance with the city’s new “safe storage” laws. Yes, really. She told reporters: We’re going to require responsible behaviors among everybody in the community, and just because you legally possess a gun in the sanctity of your locked home doesn’t mean that we’re not going to walk into that home and check to see if you’re being responsible and safe in the way you conduct your affairs.

Pompeo says Zelensky meetings with Harris and Trump were ‘very different’

By Zach LaChance  | Washington Examiner Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo on Friday addressed Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky‘s separate meetings with Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump, saying they were “very different.” Speaking on Jesse Watters Primetime, Pompeo was asked how he saw the meetings between Zelensky and Harris and Zelensky and Trump. “Very different meetings. In one case, he was meeting with a vice president who was in charge when tens of thousands of people of his — Zelensky’s — people in Ukraine were killed. And the other president had deterred Vladimir Putin for four years,” he said. Pompeo then defended Trump’s record as president, saying the difference between Harris and Trump “couldn...

IDF targets remnants of Hezbollah leadership; 20 killed alongside Nasrallah

By Joel B. Pollak | Breitbart The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) carried out airstrikes on Sunday targeting Hezbollah’s remaining officials, following the killing of leader Hassan Nasrallah on Friday, whom Israel said was killed with 20 other terrorist commanders. In a statement Sunday, the IDF said: This past Friday, in a precise airstrike carried out by the Israeli Air Force, directed by the Intelligence Directorate, fighter jets struck and eliminated Hassan Nasrallah, the leader of the Hezbollah terrorist organization, and Ali Karaki, the Commander of Hezbollah’s Southern Front, who was one of the remaining senior commanders in the organization before the strike. More than 20 other terrorists of varying ranks, who were present at the underground headquarters in Beirut located b...

Walz could harm Harris, not help her, in debate against Vance

By Barnini Chakraborty | Washington Examiner When Vice President Kamala Harris picked Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate in August, the choice was seen as a move to balance out her presidential ticket and help broaden her appeal to working-class voters. Democrats bet his bonafides as a former high school teacher, veteran, and gun owner with folksy charm would help Harris, who has been criticized for being inauthentic and a flip-flopper on policy. But for all of Walz’s midwestern “dad energy,” his record and penchant for tall tales will be in the spotlight on Oct. 1 when he faces Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) in a vice presidential debate. In what is undoubtedly the largest stage of his political career, Walz risks undermining Harris even furthe...

The worst mistake of Joe Biden’s career becomes clear

By Salena Zito  | Daily Caller President Joe Biden’s worst career mistake became clear this week, and it should serve as a cautionary tale for young men. Uncle Joe’s political career is cooked. His legacy is already lost. And this week showed it. In his first official cabinet meeting in over a year, First Lady Jill Biden sat at the head of the table. Biden was then forced to appear on ABC’s “The View,” where the hosts treated him like a child and where he admitted he is still in denial about how his own party kicked him off the ballot. It was so undignified you pitied the man. But Biden brought this upon himself by making a strategic career error that might cost his legacy for future generations.

Data dump shows 650,000 migrant criminals, suspects free in Biden-Harris’s America

By Neil Munro  | Breitbart President Joe Biden’s administration is allowing up to 650,000 criminal migrants and suspects — including at least 13,099 migrant murderers and 222,141 migrants facing criminal charges — to roam through American communities, according to a dramatic data dump by a House Republican. “The data says that, among those not in detention, there are 425,431 convicted criminals,” reported Fox News, which got the information from Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX). The letter from ICE to Gonzalez says: Your letter requests the number of noncitizens on ICE’s docket convicted or charged with a crime. As of July 21, 2024, there were 662,566 noncitizens with criminal histories on ICE’s national docket, which includes those detained by ICE, and on the agency’...

Voters moving right on tax cuts, poll shows

By Salena Zito  | Daily Signal A national survey released weeks before the Nov. 5 presidential election shows most voters know little about the personal impacts of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, which is set to expire at the end of 2025. The survey, conducted by Public Opinion Strategies on behalf of Stand Together, shows that 76% of voters, an overwhelming majority, say now is a bad time to increase taxes, and only 5% say it is a good time. The other 18% said it was neither a good time nor a bad time. The Tax Foundation has estimated that if the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act expires next year, a single parent with one child making $30,000 per year will pay more than $1,000 more in taxes annually. A family of four making $75,000 is estimated to face a tax increase of more...

McElwee: Kamala Harris’ Pennsylvania Problem

By Charles F. McElwee | Politico America’s second Catholic president was visiting his childhood neighborhood in April, when he employed a bit of ritualized Irish Democratic politicking. “I’m Joe Biden,” he introduced himself to a patron at a small coffee shop gathering in Green Ridge, long a bastion of Irish-Catholic families who work in law and politics. “I went to St. Paul’s.” The greeting, an echo of the old Catholic habit of identifying oneself by church parish, was Biden’s homage to the parochial nature of Scranton, home to one of the nation’s highest concentrations of white Catholics.

J.D. Vance, potentially the next VP, set to attend high-dollar fundraiser in Denver in October

By Ernest Luning | Colorado Politics Republican vice presidential nominee JD Vance is scheduled to headline a fundraiser hosted by former U.S. Sen. Cory Gardner in Denver in October, with tickets starting at $3,300 apiece, according to an invitation to the event.

Maly: Donald Trump Is Jewish Americans’ best option for President in 2024

By Brandon Maly | Newsweek My great-grandfather was a Holocaust survivor. Many of us believed that the kinds of atrocities he lived through in Eastern Europe couldn't happen again, a history that we vowed never to forget. That was just 79 years ago. On Oct. 7, 2023, the world changed for the Jewish community. Israel experienced the most deadly attack in its history, and it marked the most Jews killed on any one day since the Holocaust. At that moment in time (and since), every Jewish person in the United States who feels any connection to Israel became a single-issue voter. This doesn't mean that Jewish voters will vote exclusively on the most pro-Israel candidate (if both are pro-Israel), but it does mean that Jewish voters will look at insufficiently pro-Israel politicians and si...
