Walz ‘did not earn the rank’ he claims, his unit successor Lt. Col. John Kolb says in Facebook post

By Stephen M. Lepore | DailyMail.com The battalion commander who ran Tim Walz's former unit has slammed the vice presidential nominee over claims of 'stolen valor'.   Kamala Harris' running mate has already been forced to backtrack on claims of having 'carried' weapons of war in combat during his 24 years in the Army National Guard and faced claims of being a 'coward' from family members of soldiers. Harris has also been put in the unenviable position of confronting claims that Walz misrepresented his rank when he retired from the National Guard. READ THE FIULL STORY AT DAILYMAIL.COM

By Brooke Singman , Lydia Hu | Fox News Former President Donald Trump is set to sue the Justice Department for $100 million in damages over the government’s unprecedented 2022 raid on his Mar-a-Lago property in Palm Beach, Florida, with lawyers arguing it was done with "clear intent to engage in political persecution." Fox News has obtained Trump’s memo claiming "tortious conduct by the United States against President Trump."  Trump and his legal team intend to sue the Justice Department for its conduct during the FBI’s raid on Mar-a-Lago on Aug. 8, 2022, amid the federal investigation into his alleged improper retention of classified records.  READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX NEWS

Speaker Johnson: Only Americans should decide our elections. Here’s how Congress can guarantee it.

By Speaker Mike Johnson | Commentary, Fox News There are few things more important to our country than ensuring the integrity of our elections. The people rightfully demand it, and Congress has a duty to act.   Yet, when given the opportunity to eliminate one of the most glaring threats to fair elections, 198 House Democrats voted instead to keep the door open to fraud.  The threat is very real. In nearly all 50 states today — including every major electoral battleground state — a noncitizen can walk into a DMV or welfare office, fill out a federal voter registration form, claim they are a U.S. citizen, and be registered to vote.  That noncitizen can then cast a ballot and help...

Vespa: Is Barack Obama covertly the QB of the Harris presidential campaign?

By Matt Vespa | Townhall Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy isn’t one to spew conspiracy theories, but what he said about Kamala Harris’ campaign was interesting, given the recent hires. The California Republican said that the man who is the real campaign manager is none other than former President Barack Obama (via NY Post). The former president worked behind the scenes to jettison Biden after his disastrous June 27 debate. He knew Biden couldn’t beat Trump and felt the same way about Kamala.

‘Never’ Harris: Border Patrol agents on Kamala and that she is ‘probably worse than Biden’

By Anna Giaritelli | Washington Examiner Border Patrol agents expressed more distrust of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris than President Joe Biden and said they will not vote for her in November in interviews with the Washington Examiner. None of the more than a dozen Border Patrol agents questioned by the Washington Examiner said they would cast a ballot for Harris because they do not view her as supportive of the organization and its congressionally mandated mission. “I would never vote for her,” the first agent said. “These past four years have been a nightmare for the patrol, and it would be another four years of the same — and probably worse than Biden, honestly,” a second agent said.

Dem’s VP hopeful Walz to attend fundraiser in Denver along five-stop, multi-state tour this week

By BRIAN PORTER | Rocky Mountain Voice Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, named last week by Vice President Kamala Harris as her running mate, will make Denver a destination this week in advance of the Democratic National Convention. It is part of a multi-stop fundraising trip from coast-to-coast, beginning Tuesday in California, where Walz plans to speak to the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees at its Los Angeles convention, according to several media reports.

Copy cat Kamala: Harris ‘copies’ Trump’s no tax on tips policy at rally in hospitality-heavy Nevada

By Mark A. Kellner, Katherine Donlevy and Deirdre Bardolf | New York Post Vice President Kamala Harris rolled out a promise to stomp out taxes on tips during a campaign stop in Las Vegas Saturday — prompting former President Donald Trump to rip her for “copying” one of his signature proposals. Though she spent a significant portion of her talk ripping Trump, the Democratic presidential nominee regurgitated one of his signature ideas at the top of her stump speech at the battleground state. “It is my promise to everyone here, when I am President, we will continue our fight for working families of America, including to raise the minimum wage and eliminate taxes on tips for service and hospitality workers,” Harris told the crowd to a roar of applause.

Pilot errors blamed for Osprey crash that killed Colorado Marine, 2 others

By TARA COPP | Associated Press, via Fox 31 News An Osprey crash in Australia that killed three Marines, including one from Colorado, was caused by multiple pilot errors during a near mid-air collision, a military investigation has found. It also found that squadron leadership had permitted “a culture that disregarded safety of flight.” Two Marines pilots were killed by the Aug. 27 crash: Capt. Eleanor V. LeBeau, 29, and Maj. Tobin J. Lewis, 37, who was born and raised in Conifer, Colorado. A third Marine, crew chief Cpl. Spencer R. Collart, 21, was killed as he “heroically re-entered the burning cockpit of the aircraft in an attempt to rescue the trapped pilots,” the investigators said in a report released late Friday.

Sloan: U.S. foreign affairs weakness was on display

By Kelly Sloan | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice There were a couple bits of good news to emerge on the foreign affairs front this past week, of which highlight the atrophy of American strength, which is starting to become unmistakable. Evan Gershkovich, the Wall Street Journal reporter detained in Russia some 16 months ago was finally, and thankfully, released in a prisoner exchange last week, along with a handful of others who were unjustly detained, including former U.S. Marine Paul Whelan, held on false charges of espionage in 2018, Russian-American journalist Alsu Kurmasheva, and British-Russian dissident and journalist Vladimir Kara-Murza.  It would be ungenerous, and rather dishonest, to not give the U.S. State Department its due for arranging the release, or to ignor...

Growing government debt is bigger threat to economy than climate change, CBO says

By Stephen Dinan | The Washington Times The rapidly rising federal debt will do substantially more damage to the U.S. economy in coming years than climate change, the Congressional Budget Office said, putting stark figures on the size of the danger. The CBO said Friday that if Uncle Sam’s debt grows as it projects, it would reduce the size of the economy by 3.2% in 30 years. Climate change would sap it of 1%, as measured by gross domestic product. The CBO released the data in response to a question from Sen. Charles E. Grassley of Iowa, the top Republican on the Senate Budget Committee. Mr. Grassley had labeled climate change a “serious issue” but said it was odd that the Democratic-led panel was spending so much time worrying about it. READ THE FULL STORY AT THE WASHINGTON TIM...
