Trump blasts Harris as part of Truth Social flurry on what she ‘didn’t mention’ in DNC speech

By Andrew Mark Miller | Fox News CHICAGO – Former President Donald Trump, as part of a live thread on Truth Social, blasted the Democratic National Convention speech of Vice President Kamala Harris in a variety of posts including one after she concluded talking about what she "didn't mention." "She didn’t mention China, she didn’t mention fracking, she didn’t mention Energy, she didn’t mention, meaningfully, Russia and Ukraine, she didn’t mention the big subjects of the day, that are destroying our Country," Trump posted on Truth Social shortly after Harris' speech concluded.  The former president posted several criticisms of Harris during the speech on several issues.

3 Things Kamala Harris Left Out of Her DNC Speech

By Bradley Delvin | Daily Signal Before Vice President Kamala Harris hit the stage to accept her party’s nomination for president Thursday night at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, her campaign told reporters what to expect.  Harris campaign officials leaked to the press that the sitting vice president would reintroduce herself to Americans, despite being the second most powerful person in the country for the past three and a half years.  And although questions linger about Harris’ policy positions despite her becoming the presumptive nominee shortly after fellow Democrats forced President Joe Biden out of the race a month ago, Harris was expected to take aim at The Heritage Foundation-led Project 2025, a policy agenda for the next conservative a...

Fact-Checking Polis at the Democratic Convention: Holding Him Accountable Since Others Won’t

By Colorado Peak Politics Having completed his Comic Con duties in Colorado, Gov. Polis is now at the Democrat National Convention where he is being celebrated as the newest member of the progressive brat pack whilst flacking for Kamala. He made the obligatory appearance on MSNBC to hype the Democrat Party and the ascension of their unelected nominee to protect that kind of “democracy.” Since no one else is bothering to fact check the crazy claims being spewed from this side of the political aisle, Peak is taking up the challenge.

Sloan: The legacy of ‘free stuff’ Biden government will continue with Harris

By Kelly Sloan | Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice Kamala Harris finally hinted at something resembling policy on Friday when she revealed snippets of her economic program, and it was every bit as horrifying as one would imagine. It was essentially a combination of spending sprees, price controls and offers of “free” stuff – meaning paid for by someone else. In other words, it was a prescription for more of the same, only writ large.  Whether she wants it to or not – more pointedly, whether Democratic campaign advisors want it to be or not – Harris’ campaign offers largely a continuation of the Biden administration and its legacy. Which is what, exactly? Well, domestically that legacy will almost certainly be the inflation that has dominated the economy for the last three-a...

Poll: Trump has gained since 2020 in Black, Hispanic demos but race is a dead heat

By BRIAN PORTER | Rocky Mountain Voice When the Democrat National Convention closes tonight in Chicago, it could be an all-out sprint to the Nov. 5 finish line to determine who will become the next President of the United States. A new Cook Political Report national polling average, re-released Wednesday for the first time since Joe Biden's exit and Kamala Harris' entry, finds the race to be a virtual dead heat. The CPR average takes into consideration 12 traditional media polls, most of which lean to the political left, and nine online or larger panel polls. Harris, who had yet prior to her acceptance speech Thursday to share policy on her website, is leading Donald Trump by less than 1%. With all polls considered, Harris is favored by 47.6% and Trump by 46.7%. The CPR average...

Young Americans, especially college grads, can’t get ahead, are ‘spiraling’ downward

By Peter St. Onge  | DAILY SIGNAL America’s Hometown Newspaper finally noticed young Americans are screwed. A few days ago, USA Today wrote an article asking why millennials and Gen Z are “spiraling, partying hard, and blowing their savings.” I’ve mentioned in previous videos how young Americans are doom-spending their way to financial oblivion amid low-paying jobs, a half-decade of transitory inflation, and half-a-million dollars for a starter home.

Programs in 2,000 cities nationwide are lowering crime, but DOJ is bullying cities to revoke laws

By Judicial Watch The Biden Administration is threatening — and has sued — local governments and law enforcement agencies across the country that have implemented measures to curb an epidemic of crime, drugs and gang violence in rental properties asserting that the policies “unfairly penalize communities of color.”  The popular laws, enacted by thousands of cities nationwide are commonly known as “crime-free” and “nuisance” programs that restrict housing based on criminal and arrest records and punish landlords and tenants with excessive calls to police and emergency services or those engaged in criminal activity. To improve living conditions in mainly low-income rentals 2,000 cities across 48 states have adopted crime-free and nuisance policies, according to the Department of Ju...

When Fed Chair Powell speaks to central bank Friday in Jackson Hole, he might disappoint

By Jake Smith | The Street Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell will take the stage at the central bank's annual retreat in Jackson Hole Friday with renewed confidence that inflation is receding and the economy is poised, albeit delicately, for a so-called soft landing. That knowledge, cemented by recent data, a resilient stock market and fading recession risks, will likely form the tone of his keynote address to attendees at the central bank's symposium in the northwest Wyoming resort town, which will be tracked by investors on Wall Street and around the world.

GOP senators want to know who funds Pro-Palestinian protests, Biden Admin brushes off inquiry

By Jake Smith | Daily Caller The Biden administration brushed off a top GOP lawmaker’s request for information regarding organizations backing pro-Palestinian protests, according to documents obtained by the Daily Caller News Foundation. Pro-Palestinian protests and riots have surged throughout the country for months, most recently at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) in Chigaco this week. Republican Sen. Joni Ernst of Iowa and 15 other senators wrote to the IRS Commissioner Daniel Werfel in May urging the agency to open an investigation into nonprofit organizations supporting certain pro-Palestinian groups and movements, and whether those organizations’ support jeopardized their tax-exempt status. (RELATED: Gov. Josh Shapiro Takes Jab At Fel...

Daniel Davidson: In fake news infomercial, the DNC has been one long litany of stupid, obvious lies

By John Daniel Davidson | Commentary, The Federalist It almost goes without saying that what Democrats are putting on at the DNC this week in Chicago is a simulacrum of democracy, a mimicry of the excitement and drama that might have come from a deliberative process of Democrat Party voters choosing their presidential candidate. None of it is real. The DNC has all the trappings of a major political party convention but without any of the substance. Not a single Democrat voter cast a primary ballot for Vice President Kamala Harris, yet Democrats are going through the motions as if that’s exactly what happened.
