Sloan: More of the same water-carrying by media for Harris

By Kelly Sloan | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Donald Trump may overplay it a little with his “FAKE NEWS” schtick, but the reality of inhered left-wing bias in the media is axiomatic. If we needed a few more examples, I offer the last few weeks. It’s no secret that the mainstream media has been pretty much carrying the Harris campaign since the deposing of Joe Biden, whose foibles and steady degradation of mental acuity they had been all but covering for until it became so obvious that it would require a Truman Show-level of coordinated mass deception to employ the needed gymnastics. Since the primary-circumventing replacement of the Democratic Presidential ticket (a brilliant bit of political sleight-of-hand naturally left uncommented upon) most of the media have fallen over them...

Brown University trustee steps down over vote on Israel divestment, calling it ‘morally reprehensible’

By Jennifer Nuelle | The Daily Caller A trustee at Brown University announced his resignation on Sunday over the school’s vote on Israel divestment. The university’s highest governing body, “The Corporation,” will vote on the divestment during its October meeting, which was decided after an agreement was made between administrators and “encampment organizers” in April, according to the Brown Daily Herald. Joseph Edelman, a trustee since 2019, noted that Brown’s plan to hold a divestment vote in the first place was based on “weakness towards student activists,” not facts and values. “I find it morally reprehensible that holding a divestment vote was even considered, much less that it will be held—especially in the wake of the deadliest assault on the Jewish people since the Holocau...

Biden-Harris Admin ignored repeated military warnings ahead of disastrous Afghan withdrawal

By James Lynch | National Review President Biden’s insistence on withdrawing entirely from Afghanistan no matter the cost — despite repeated warnings from the military and NATO allies — exposed American personnel to security threats and allowed the Taliban to quickly remake the country into a terrorist safe-haven, according to a new congressional report. Taking their cue from Biden himself, senior State Department officials were hellbent on getting every last U.S. troop out of Afghanistan by September 11, 2021, regardless of the security situation on the ground or the Taliban’s compliance with the previously negotiated Doha Agreement, according to a 354 page report compiled by the House Foreign Affairs Committee’s Republican majority.

The most important stat in a fresh NYT poll showing Trump pulling back ahead nationally

By Guy Benson | Town Hall In case you missed Sarah's post yesterday, a fresh nationwide survey from the New York Times and Siena College shows Donald Trump edging back out into the lead against Kamala Harris -- in both the head-to-head and wider field numbers.  In the days immediately following Joe Biden being forced out of the race by his party, this pollster went into the field and found Trump ahead of Harris by one point among likely voters, 48 percent to 47 percent.  In the intervening month-and-a-half, Harris was lavished with extraordinarily positive 'news' coverage, gaining momentum, and taking the lead.  The press made her the new frontrunner.  Six weeks later,  the hype machine may be running out of steam.  The same pollster went back into the field, just after Labor Day, and p...

Big Lots files for bankruptcy, will close some stores amid sale to investment firm

By  Pilar Arias | Fox Business About three months after Big Lots noted "substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue" in a U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, the company said on Monday it has secured $707.5 million to support its operations and sell its business to private equity firm Nexus Capital. This comes as the company has initiated bankruptcy proceedings under Chapter 11. Big Lots listed its assets and liabilities in the range of $1 billion to $10 billion, according to a filing with bankruptcy court in Delaware, which showed creditors in the range of 5,001-10,000. Big Lots cited troubles that began during the COVID-19 pandemic, and "macroeconomic factors such as high inflation and interest rates that are beyond its control." RE...

Harris finally adds policy page to campaign website, devotes several sections to Trump

By Danielle Wallace | Fox News Vice President Harris finally added policies to her campaign website for the first time since President Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed her in the presidential race 50 days ago. The website breaks Harris and her vice-presidential running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’ policy proposals into four sections: "Build an Opportunity Economy and Lower Costs for Families," "Safeguard Our Fundamental Freedoms," "Ensure Safety and Justice For All," and "Keep America Safe, Secure, and Prosperous."  Before the new addition, Harris' campaign website had pages to buy merchandise, donate and get to know the candidate's background, but was devoid of any policy plans for weeks even after she formally accepted the nomination at the Democratic National...

Top DOJ spokesman calls Trump cases ‘perversion of justice’ on hidden camera

By Olivia Rondeau | Breitbart The chief spokesman for the U.S. Department of Justice’s (DOJ) Southern District of New York (SDNY) was caught tearing into Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg and other prosecutors for carrying out a “perversion of justice” in targeting former President Donald Trump, hidden camera footage captured by an undercover journalist revealed. Nicholas Biase, the public affairs director for the U.S. Attorney’s Office of the Southern District of New York (SDNY), spilled his feelings about the liberal DA when speaking to an unidentified operative with podcaster Steven Crowder’s “Mug Club” on multiple occasions.

Sheffield: Faux feminist Kamala Harris, an anti-woman, misogynist candidate

By Carrie Sheffield | Daily Signal Vice President Kamala Harris claims to be a champion for women, but many facts tell a different story. Harris speaks pro-women rhetoric, but fails to protect women and girls from assaults in locker rooms.  Harris endorsed a new Biden-Harris administration rule expanding Title IX protections to gender identity and sexual orientation, requiring schools receiving federal funds to allow males into female spaces such as restrooms and locker rooms, or into any activity currently separated as male or female.  READ MORE AT THE DAILY SIGNAL Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in commentary pieces are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the management of the Rocky Mountain Voice, but even...
