Marvin Aneer Jalo, 17, is alleged to have plotted to murder tens of people attending a Pride Parade in Phoenix Arizona. The plan was to use a drone loaded up with explosives and fly it into the middle of a large crowd. You haven’t heard of this close call because the person in question was an Islamist who hoped to “bomb 2024 Pride Parade and take over USA.”
Arizona Teen Plotted Massacre at Phoenix Pride Parade. Here’s Why You Haven’t Heard About It. – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
A 17-year-old in Peoria, Ariz., has been arrested over his plans to load up a drone with explosives and send it into the Phoenix Pride parade. He was hoping to “bomb 2024 Pride Parade and take over USA” and said that he had ordered bomb-making equipment. He was, however, discovered and stopped before he could carry out his attack. Still, you should have heard about a terror plot of this magnitude, yet the establishment media is maintaining near-radio silence about it.
Now, foiled attacks always get less attention than ones that are successful, and that’s why you likely haven’t heard about this particular plot, but there is another reason as well: the perpetrator was not a “white supremacist” gun nut who could be easily shoehorned into the left’s standard narrative about supposed “right-wing” violence.
Instead, Marvin Aneer Jalo was an Islamic jihadist, coming at a time when the left’s alliance with Islamic groups is fraught with tension over the Biden-Harris regime’s failure to betray Israel as thoroughly as Muslim leaders have been demanding they do, as well as over social issues, with many Muslims furious over the left’s unshakeable determination to embrace and normalize every fantasy, delusion and perversion that comes down the pike. So this was just the worst time for a Muslim to plot to blow up a Pride Parade, and that’s why you’re likely to hear about this plot only here.
Kamala Harris’ Biden Administration has been using a “clever” legal loophole to essentially grant amnesty to millions of illegal aliens without having to go through the trouble of even writing a bill for congress, let alone have it pass.
The accusation comes from the GOP-led House Judiciary Committee, which issued a report that says “Instead of adjudicating these cases, denying invalid asylum claims, and ordering aliens removed from the United States, the Biden-Harris Administration has directed its immigration judges to simply not adjudicate them.”
Biden-Harris admin engages in ‘quiet amnesty’ to allow illegal border crossers to remain in US indefinitely: House Judiciary | The Post Millennial– thepostmillennial.com Source Link Excerpt:
“Instead of adjudicating these cases, denying invalid asylum claims, and ordering aliens removed from the United States, the Biden-Harris Administration has directed its immigration judges to simply not adjudicate them,” the report stated.
The House Judiciary Committee on Thursday released an interim staff report on how the Biden-Harris administration “uses the nation’s immigration courts to advance an open-borders agenda” through a massive backlog in the immigration courts and the dismissal of cases.
The committee wrote that since Biden took office, there have been more than 3.7 million new immigration court cases since the beginning of fiscal year 2021, which began in October of 2020. “The majority of those cases are based on claims that ultimately will prove unsuccessful,” the report stated, noting that of the adjudicated cases in fiscal year 2023, just 14 percent of them resulted in an asylum grant. The remaining cases were “cases denied, abandoned, dismissed, terminated, withdrawn, or administratively closed.”
“The Biden-Harris Administration has used the immigration court backlog as an excuse to allow even more aliens to remain in the country. Instead of actually adjudicating illegal aliens’ cases based on the merits of aliens’ claims for relief—such as whether an alien has a valid and successful asylum claim—immigration judges under the Biden-Harris Administration have been tasked with rubberstamping case dismissals, case closures, and case terminations, all of which allow illegal aliens to remain in the United States without immigration consequences,” the report stated.
Through oversight conducted by the Judiciary Committee and its Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement since 2023, it has been revealed that the administration “has used administrative maneuvering in immigration court proceedings to allow nearly 1 million illegal aliens to remain in the US indefinitely.”
To “mask” the increase in new cases created by the Biden-Harris admin’s border crisis, the administration “has empowered ICE attorneys to pursue or agree to—and immigration judges to grant—mass dismissals, terminations, and closures of immigration cases.”
A dismissal is “requested by ICE when the agency ‘makes a determination that they’re not going to proceed forward’” in a particular case, termination “ends an alien’s immigration court removal proceedings,” and administrative closure indefinitely “pauses an alien’s removal proceedings by removing the case from an immigration judge’s calendar.” All three of these instances allow “aliens to remain in the US indefinitely,” the report stated.
From the beginning of the administration through July 31, 2023, immigration judges administratively closed 71,465 cases. Immigration judges also dismissed 459,356 cases and terminated 172,645 cases through June 30, 2024. “The pace of case dismissals, terminations, and closures increased every year under the Biden-Harris Administration,” with just over 5,000 cases being administratively closed from Biden’s inauguration through the end of fiscal year 2021, 35,775 cases being closed in fiscal year 2022, and 30,476 cases being closed in the first 10 months of fiscal year 2023. Similar skyrocketing numbers were seen for terminations and case dismissals.
“Without adjudicating cases and ordering aliens removed from the United States, immigration judges’ mass granting of dismissals, terminations, and closures ensures that aliens can remain in the US indefinitely. Even worse, the majority of the aliens in those cases likely never would have been able to establish any legal basis to remain in the country,” the report stated.
“Instead of adjudicating these cases, denying invalid asylum claims, and ordering aliens removed from the United States, the Biden-Harris Administration has directed its immigration judges to simply not adjudicate them,” the report later added.
Poll Shows Trump +2 Nationally, +8 in Swing States– www.breitbart.com Source Link Excerpt:
In the latest HarrisX/Forbes national poll, Donald Trump leads Kamala Harris by two points, 51 to 49 percent, in a head-to-head matchup.
When third-party candidates are included, Trump leads by a single point, 49 to 48 percent.
The pollster considers this a “noticeable shift from Harris’ four-point lead last month” when Harris led 52 to 48 percent.
This online poll of 1,244 likely voters was taken between Oct. 21-22.
In the seven battleground states — Georgia, North Carolina, Arizona, Pennsylvania, Nevada, Wisconsin, and Michigan — Trump is up eight points over Harris, 54 to 46 percent.
With polling all over the place, the trends matter more than anything, especially when you can compare the same poll over time. So Forbes is correct. Harris lost her four-point lead in only five or six weeks. That’s a six-point shift in Trump’s direction.
The national shift towards Trump in this poll is no fluke. In the RealClearPolitics average poll of national polls, Kamala’s lead is down to just over a half-point, at 0.6 points. At the beginning of the month, she was 2.2 points ahead.
At this same time in 2016, Trump was down nationally to Hillary Clinton by 5.9 points. In 2020, Trump was down to Joe Biden by eight points.
Trump has never polled better than he is polling right now.
In those seven crucial swing states that will decide the election, the story is the same: Little by little, the former president has edged into a lead in all seven. In five of the seven swing states, Trump’s lead is less than a single point. Nevertheless, it is a steady lead.
Additionally, among those who know, the early vote so far looks extraordinarily good for Team Trump. That could change on a dime over the next week or ten days, but right now Republicans are thrilled with what they are seeing, while Democrats stress over their usually reliable base staying home (so far) in larger numbers than expected this many days in.

Republicans Accuse FTC Chair of Hatch Act Violations– slaynews.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Joe Biden-appointed Federal Trade Commission (FTC) Chair Lina Khan has been accused of Hatch Act violations.
A contentious debate has emerged in Washington as top Republicans on the House Judiciary Committee accuse Khan of compromising ethical standards by attending events with Democrat candidates.
The FTC official’s attendance at the events is linked to the Hatch Act violations.
Khan faces scrutiny from Republicans for allegedly participating in partisan activities during her official duties.
Judiciary Committee investigators argue that Khan has been using her position to sway electoral results, Fox News reported.
At the heart of the Republican critique are claims about Khan’s involvement in a tour alongside Democrat candidates before the coming elections.
House Demands More Docs Over NewsGuard Censorship Machine– thefederalist.com Source Link Excerpt:
Republicans on the House Oversight Committee are demanding more documents from the censorship service NewsGuard in their probe of the company’s collusion with federal “misinformation” monitors.
On Friday, House Oversight Chairman James Comer of Kentucky sent a letter to NewsGuard executives “to seek additional documents and communications” from the censorship group related to “present contracts with or grants administered by federal government agencies or any other government entity, including foreign governments.”
NewsGuard is one of the more popular web browser extensions deployed in K-12 classrooms across the country with the support of federal taxpayer funding. The service rates the credibility of online websites and redirects users to news organizations approved as regime friendly. Such ratings have been weaponized to censor non-leftist content with misinformation labels for factual reporting on stories such as Hunter Biden’s laptop.
It turns out the alleged “Republican Women” against Trump group called Women4Us is funded by Jeffrey Epstein’s former friend and DNC-CCP Megadonor Reid Hoffman. Hoffman has given over $500K to the group since July, which accounts for more than 85 percent of their total funding.
Reid Hoffman, Democratic Megadonor Linked to Jeffrey Epstein, Is Largest Donor to ‘Republican’ Women’s Group Opposing Trump– freebeacon.com Source Link Excerpt:
A super PAC launched this year to “empower” Republican women to vote against Donald Trump is funded almost entirely by a Democratic megadonor linked to pedophile Jeffrey Epstein, according to campaign finance records.
Reid Hoffman, one of the Democratic Party’s biggest donors, has given $518,000 since July to Women4Us Inc., which reported roughly $644,000 in campaign contributions since July 1. Another super PAC funded heavily by Hoffman, One For All Committee, has contributed $86,000 to Women4Us, according to campaign finance disclosures.
Hoffman’s deep financial involvement in Women4Us raises questions for an organization that calls itself a group of “GOP women, standing together to vote for Kamala Harris to protect our rights.”
Women4Us was cofounded by three political consultants with backgrounds in Republican politics. Its honorary advisers include anti-Trump Republicans Christine Todd Whitman, Susan Molinari, and Jennifer Horn, a cofounder of the Lincoln Project, the scandal-plagued anti-Trump group. Former Rep. Joe Walsh (R., Ill.) and Republican consultant Heath Mayo are listed as “allies” of the organization.

ELECTRIC FIELDS GROW TOMATOES AT MIDNIGHT – A new type of agriculture called “electro-agriculture” could free humans from the vagaries of climate and enable them to grow reliable plant products under all conditions, including in the middle of the night. The method so far is a theory that appears on the Cell Press Journal Joule.
Essentially, a chemical reaction would be created through solar-powered electricity that would convert the CO2 in the air to something a plant can simply “eat” without photosynthesis. The plants will be genetically engineered to be able to do this.
Biological engineer Robert Jinkerson of University of California, Riverside, a corresponding author of the article, spoke of the potential, stating, “If we don’t need to grow plants with sunlight anymore, then we can decouple agriculture from the environment and grow food in indoor, controlled environments. I think that we need to move agriculture into the next phase of technology and producing it in a controlled way that is decoupled from nature has to be the next step. The whole point of this new process to try to boost the efficiency of photosynthesis. Right now, we are at about 4% efficiency…”

This method offers a clear way to provide a certain degree of “intelligence” to an electronic device. The reality is that there are many engineering situations that don’t require the best chips. At the end of the day, all you care about is whether your device can perform the task. This technology is capable of meeting some of the “constraints.”

Rep. Cory Mills (R-FL) has formally requested the Biden-Harris Gestapo Department of Justice (DOJ) to investigate Kamala Harris for potential criminal misconduct following a highly politicized press conference.
Mills is pointing to federal laws that prohibit any federal officer or employee from using their official authority to interfere with or influence an election—a line Harris crossed when she used the office of the Vice President to launch vicious attacks against Donald Trump.
On Wednesday, just 13 days before Election Day, Harris delivered a desperate three-minute unhinged tirade against Trump, invoking debunked smears and inflammatory rhetoric at the official residence of the Vice President, located at the Naval Observatory in Washington, D.C., flanked by the official seal of the Vice President.
Kamala Harris took to the podium on Wednesday to launch a vicious attack on former President Donald Trump
Harris wasted no time in seizing on the outrageous claim, stating that Trump wanted a military that was “loyal to him personally” and suggesting that he would use the military to target American citizens who opposed him.
Harris went as far as to accuse Trump of comparing himself to Hitler.
“We know what Donald Trump wants. He wants unchecked power. The question, in thirteen days, will be what do the American people want?” Kamala said…
Mills’s letter, addressed to Garland, reads:
As you are likely aware, earlier today Vice President Kamala Harris gave what was billed as a “press conference” at the official VP residence. In the under three-minute speech VP Harris only made vicious political attacks on Republican Presidential Candidate and Former President, Donald J. Trump.
After making multiple defamatory references to Hitler and claiming he would use the American military to go after American citizens, she concluded saying, “We know what Donald Trump wants. He wants unchecked power. The question, in thirteen days, will be what do the American people want?”
While the Hatch Act, which prohibits using official resources to support partisan political campaigns, does not apply to the President and Vice President in civil provisions, it does not exempt them from criminal provisions.
In Federal law, it is a crime for any federal officer or employee to “use his official authority for the purpose of interfering with, or affecting, the nomination or the election of any candidate for the office of President, Vice President, Presidential elector, Member of the Senate, Member of the House of Representatives.”
Recognizing this concern and as Attorney General, you issued a strict prohibition to your political appointees from participating in campaign-related activities in any capacity.
As Attorney General, you answer to the President, but your oath is to the Constitution and the laws of the United States.
I ask that you investigate today’s questionless “press conference” as it appears to be a direct use of official authority to affect the upcoming election. Given the proximity to the election, the American people deserve timely answers.”

Kamala Harris Is Trying to Get Trump Shot at Again – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
In a shocking display of political desperation, Kamala Harris made another blatant Hail Mary attempt to stop Donald Trump. Only this time, her rhetoric might get him killed.
On Wednesday, the New York Times published a hit piece against Donald Trump, quoting his former Chief of Staff, John Kelly. Kamala Harris, seeking to capitalize on this weak story, spoke from the Vice President’s residence to address it.
“So, yesterday, we learned that Donald Trump’s former chief of staff, John Kelly, a retired four-star general, confirmed that while Donald Trump was president, he said he wanted generals like Adolf Hitler had,” she began. With this incendiary remark, she not only rehashed her stale talking points but also risked reigniting the dangerous narrative that has previously inspired attempts on Trump’s life.
“It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler, the man who is responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews and hundreds of thousands of Americans,” Kamala continued. “All of this is further evidence for the American people of who Donald Trump really is. This is a window into who Donald Trump really is from the people who know him best, from the people who worked with him side by side in the Oval Office and in the Situation Room.”
CNN Contributor Points Out Glaring Flaw In Kamala’s Latest Effort To Link President Trump To Hitler– wltreport.com Source Link Excerpt:
Time is running out before Election Day, and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris appears to be increasingly desperate.
As President Donald Trump’s advantage grows in nationwide and battleground state polls, Harris has latched on to a widely debunked claim that Trump once voiced his admiration for Adolf Hitler.
Not only did the Trump campaign unequivocally deny any such allegation, but CNN pundit Scott Jennings offered a scathing assessment of Harris’ latest line of attack.
“It is deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous that Donald Trump would invoke Adolf Hitler, the man who was responsible for the deaths of 6 million Jews and hundreds of thousands of Americans,” the Democrat presidential nominee said in her remarks, which oddly enough were delivered from the vice presidential residence.
While both the former president and his presidential campaign have responded accordingly, GOP strategist/political analyst Scott Jennings, fresh off of triggering his colleagues on the Doug Emhoff abuse scandal, brought up another great point during a Wednesday CNN segment about why Harris’ argument about Trump bombs so badly:
It probably will shock Kamala Harris and the rest of her campaign staff to learn that there are incumbent Democrat US Senators in this country right now running television ads touting all their work with this “modern-day Hitler.”

He touted her proposals to crack down on price gouging, increase housing supply and support domestic production of both renewable energy and fossil fuels.
“What did she say? ‘Let’s solve the problem.’ What did he say? ‘Let’s lay the blame,’” Clinton said. “I’m telling you, if you want a president to do a real job, you have to find somebody who will take responsibility and find a better way.”
Clinton called Trump “mister brand and blame,” portraying him as a person at home attacking his rivals but not solving problems.

The partisan liar claimed that the story came from Natalie Khawam, the attorney for the family of the slain soldier, 20-year-old Vanessa Guillén.
Guillén was murdered in 2020 by another soldier at Fort Hood. When her body was discovered and preparations were made to bury the soldier, Trump reportedly disparaged the dead soldier.
“It doesn’t cost 60,000 bucks to bury a fucking Mexican!” Goldberg claims Trump said of the Mexican-American soldier.

Many on the left are in crisis mode, as Kamala’s performance in this campaign was as retarded as she is. This typically would be nothing more than a personal problem but the Dems are trying to make it your problem, as the left pushes conspiracy theories with more evidence to disapprove it than back it up.
It’s unclear if the whole pretending Trump is “literally” Hitler was intended to win over swing voters in middle America but this tactic has not proven to bring the success the Dems hoped for. The left has thrown everything at Trump and slandered him into oblivion, and the fact that they think pretending Trump is “literally” Hitler will do anything to move the goalpost is not only pathetic but deeply unserious.
You cannot lie to voters for 8 years and expect them to believe this propaganda like its gospel. This didn’t work in 2016, it may or may not have worked in 2020, and it is definitely not working now. So while the left is also trying to bring Jan. 6 back as if anyone remotely cares, the Dems are resorting to an oldie but a good one, which is to call Trump a “fascist.”

Parents outraged after ‘sex-ed’ program leader uses pedo-friendly language in school presentation– www.lifesitenews.com Source Link Excerpt:
(LifeSiteNews) — According to the website of Power Up Sexual Health Education, the organization is dedicated to giving kids a healthy view of sexual health. “At Power Up, we believe Sexual Health Education is NOT optional AND is best delivered starting from 2 years old,” the website states. “Why teach early? We believe educating early is the key to eliminating sexual abuse. Educating early does not strip your child of their innocence – but sexual abuse will.”
The founder and operator of Power Up is Kerri Isham, and she is under fire for her decision, during a presentation to Grade 9 students at the Quamichan School in Duncan, British Columbia, to refer to pedophiles as “MAPs” – that is, “Minor Attracted Persons.” This is a phrase preferred by pedophiles, who believe that “MAP” is a destigmatizing term that assists in legitimizing their “identity” and promotes social acceptance of their sexual attractions.
Isham admitted as much in a video posted for Facebook. “I did talk to students in Grade 9 at the school about MAPs,” she said. “A MAP is a person who’s ‘minor-attracted.’ This is an identity usually for men. MAPs are not part of the 2SLGBTQ+ community. They would like to be, but they’ll never be accepted by the community because MAPs harm children. Instead of using the word ‘pedophile,’ they want to legitimize what they are doing by changing their identity to MAP.”
It is strange that Isham admitted that “MAP” is a term of “legitimization” – but still chose to use it. Indeed, asserting control over the language used in any debate over identity is a way of shaping the conclusion, which is precisely why pedophiles wish to choose their own labels.

Photosynthesis, the chemical reaction that enables almost all life on Earth, is extremely inefficient at capturing energy — only around 1% of light energy that a plant absorbs is converted into chemical energy within the plant. In a perspective paper publishing October 23 in the Cell Press journal Joule, bioengineers propose a radical new method of food production that they call “electro-agriculture.” The method essentially replaces photosynthesis with a solar-powered chemical reaction that more efficiently converts CO2 into an organic molecule that plants would be genetically engineered to “eat.” The researchers estimate that if all food in the US were produced using electro-agriculture, it would reduce the amount of land needed for agriculture by 94%. The method could also be used to grow food in space.
“If we don’t need to grow plants with sunlight anymore, then we can decouple agriculture from the environment and grow food in indoor, controlled environments,” says corresponding author and biological engineer Robert Jinkerson of University of California, Riverside. “I think that we need to move agriculture into the next phase of technology, and producing it in a controlled way that is decoupled from nature has to be the next step.”
Electro-agriculture would mean replacing agricultural fields with multi-story buildings. Solar panels on or near the buildings would absorb the sun’s radiation, and this energy would power a chemical reaction between CO2 and water to produce acetate — a molecule similar to acetic acid, the main component in vinegar. The acetate would then be used to feed plants that are grown hydroponically. The method could also be used to grow other food-producing organisms, since acetate is naturally used by mushrooms, yeast, and algae.
“The whole point of this new process to try to boost the efficiency of photosynthesis,” says senior author Feng Jiao, an electrochemist at Washington University in St. Louis. “Right now, we are at about 4% efficiency, which is already four times higher than for photosynthesis, and because everything is more efficient with this method, the CO2 footprint associated with the production of the food becomes much smaller.”
To genetically engineer acetate-eating plants, the researchers are taking advantage of a metabolic pathway that germinating plants use to break down food stored in their seeds. This pathway is switched off once plants become capable of photosynthesis, but switching it back on would enable them to use acetate as a source of energy and carbon.
“We’re trying to turn this pathway back on in adult plants and reawaken their native ability to utilize acetate,” says Jinkerson. “It’s analogous to lactose intolerance in humans — as babies we can digest lactose in milk, but for many people that pathway is turned off when they grow up. It’s kind of the same idea, only for plants.”
Kamala Harris told a reporter that any hope any American would have to get a religious exemption from having to perform an abortion if their work “required it” should be tossed into the dustbin of history.
Harris told an MSM reporter, in response to their question about religious exemptions, “I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body.”

What a ghoul. Seriously. This woman makes me sick. Somehow, her tongue doesn’t get twisted when she’s talking about abortion:
REPORTER: What concessions would be on the table? Religious exemptions, for example? Is that something that you would consider?
HARRIS: I don’t think we should be making concessions when we’re talking about a fundamental freedom to make decisions about your own body.
REPORTER: To Republicans like, for example, Susan Collins, Lisa Murkowski, who would back something like this on a democratic agenda if, in fact, Republicans control Congress. Would you offer them an olive branch or is that off the table? Is that not an option for you.
HARRIS: I’m not going to engage in hypotheticals because we can go on with a variety of scenarios. Let’s start with the fundamental fact. A basic freedom has been taken from the women of America, the freedom to make decisions about their own body. And that cannot be negotiable, which is that we need to put back in the protections of Roe v. Wade, and that is it.

According to Microsoft, Russia is working to spread fake news to help the Republicans win the 2024 election, while the Chinese are doing the same thing to help the Democrats win.
The Microsoft Report claimed, “Actors have parroted antisemitic messages, amplified accusations of corruption, and promoted opposition candidates. While not always resulting in high levels of engagement, these efforts demonstrate China’s sustained attempts influence U.S. politics across the board. History has shown foreign actors’ ability to rapidly distribute deceptive content can significantly impact public perception and electoral outcomes. With a particular focus on the 48 hours before and after Election Day, voters, government institutions, candidates, and parties must remain vigilant against deceptive and suspicious activity online.”

When Tim Walz (D-MN) was a teacher in a Nebraska High School in 1996, he welcomed a delegation of Chinese Communist Party officials. Ye Guoqiang and Yi Hongtao, to “study the education system” of the United States.
James Comer (R-KY) has noted yet another CCP connection to Walz, saying, “Governor Tim Walz’s documented relationships with Chinese Communist Party affiliated entities and officials bears hallmarks of a CCP infiltration and influence campaign. FBI briefers recently informed the Oversight Committee that the Bureau’s Foreign Influence Task Force investigates CCP subnational influence operations and activity that is similar to how China has engaged with Governor Walz.”
Tim Walz Welcomed Chinese Communist Officials into Nebraska Classroom › American Greatness– amgreatness.com Source Link Excerpt:
A new report claims that Governor Tim Walz (D-Minn.), the Democratic nominee for vice president, once allowed several officials with the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) into his classroom in Nebraska while he was still a schoolteacher in the 1990s.
According to the Daily Caller, Walz greeted a delegation of three CCP officials, labeled as “educators,” in February of 1996 when they visited the Alliance High School’s social studies class. The purpose of their visit was to allegedly “study the education system” of the United States. But some of the officials were working at the time for a Chinese intelligence agency.
The delegation consisted of two CCP officials, Ye Guoqiang and Yi Hongtao, who at the time were members of Guangzhou Institute of Physical Education; they were accompanied by their interpreter, Ning Ziheng. While there was no proof that Ziheng was a CCP member, the other two delegation members had been involved with the CCP for decades prior to their visit.
Details of their visit were provided in large part by a newspaper article from 1996 in the Alliance Times-Herald detailing the delegation’s visit. The article even included a black-and-white photograph of Walz and the three Chinese officials in the classroom together.
MIT researchers discovered a way to print electronics components along with transistors without using semiconductors. The new 3D print method could open up 3D electronic printing as it dramatically reduces the cost of production.
Luis Fernando Velazquez-Garcia, principal scientist on the project, said of their discovery, “We saw that this is something that can help take 3D printing equipment to the next level. This method offers a clear way to provide a certain degree of “intelligence” to an electronic device. The reality is that there are many engineering situations that don’t require the best chips. At the end of the day, all you care about is whether your device can perform the task. This technology is capable of meeting some of the “constraints.”
MIT accidentally invented 3D printing of simple electronics without semiconductors – ITC Source Link Excerpt:
Researchers at MIT have unexpectedly found a way to make transistors and other electronics components without using semiconductors.
The main problem with 3D printing electronics is that semiconductor elements consist of thin layers of silicon and are extremely fragile. Their functionality can be affected by dust, temperature, and humidity. Therefore, the chips are created in clean rooms where all factors are strictly controlled to ensure that the chips work accurately.
Modern chip design is extremely complex: they consist of billions of transistors and are manufactured using nanometer-scale technology. This process is much more precise than the capabilities of modern 3D printers allow.
The MIT scientists didn’t actually try to reproduce modern chips or even think about something like this — the opportunity arose almost by accident. Earlier this year, they made magnetic inductor coils using a process called extrusion printing — where a printer melts filament and sprays the material through a nozzle, making the object layer by layer.
China’s AI-Powered Railgun Shocks U.S. Military: A Hypersonic Threat Set to Dominate Naval Warfare! – MSN Source Link Excerpt:
China has just taken a massive leap in military technology, leaving U.S. defense officials rattled. By harnessing artificial intelligence (AI), China has cracked the code on railgun technology—a futuristic weapon capable of launching projectiles at hypersonic speeds. While the U.S. struggled for years with its own railgun program, China surged ahead, and now, their railguns could soon be deployed at sea, marking a game-changing shift in naval warfare.
This technological breakthrough signals more than just another military advance—it’s a clear indication that China has transitioned from being an imitator to a formidable innovator, with the U.S. losing ground. But China’s focus isn’t just on America. Their real concern? Japan, which is also advancing rapidly in railgun technology, further intensifying the arms race in Asia.
With AI bolstering their capabilities, China’s rise in military innovation presents a serious challenge, not only to U.S. dominance but also to regional stability, as China’s powerful new weapons reshape the global military balance.
Police identified the man as 60-year-old Jeffrey Michael Kelly, who was arrested Tuesday and charged with 10 counts including committing a terrorist act, criminal damage and unlawful discharge, among others, according to Tempe police.
Additional pending counts against Kelly could also include ones related to an incident where he allegedly left bags of white powder on political signs in the area as well as hanging political signs lined with razor blades, according to court documents.
About a dozen personnel, some from the FBI, were seen at Kelly’s home on Wednesday morning taking inventory of guns found inside, according to reporting from the Arizona Republic, part of the USA TODAY Network.
…A prosecutor from the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office said Kelly was “preparing to commit an act of mass casualty.” A court document, obtained by the Republic, said that Kelly’s actions showed a pattern of escalation of his suspected terrorist activity…
The latest shooting at the Democrats’ field office occurred early on Oct. 6. The other two shootings happened in September and within the span of a week − the first on Sept. 16 and the second on Sept. 23. All of the incidents occurred between midnight and 1 a.m. local time.
Man behind Phoenix-area political threats had huge stash of guns, ammo, police say – msn.com
… From Monday night into Tuesday morning, documents say Kelly was observed posting “anti-Democratic ideology signs“ at various locations near his Ahwatukee home.
The places included Chandler Boulevard near 44th Street and 35th Street, as well as Ray Road and 50th Street.
Phoenix police later said the signs were also lined with razor blades. The signs had messages referring to the Democratic Party and presidential candidate Kamala Harris.
Clear plastic bags containing white powder marked ”biohazard” were reportedly attached to the signs, with messages including, “F*** you!,” “play stupid games win stupid prizes!,” and “guess the poison!”
…
“He is obviously putting threats out there,” (Deputy Maricopa County Attorney Neha) Bhatia said in court. “He is wanting to scare the population. He is escalating in his violence and the state believes that he is an absolute threat to the community, to any political figures, Democrats specifically.”
Kelly’s attorney argued that some of the allegations were inflammatory, saying that his client is a retired aerospace engineer with a top-secret level clearance and no prior criminal record. Regarding the guns, his attorney said Kelly was a sportsman.
“We will not tolerate attempts to intimidate anyone involved in the process. Those who engage in political violence or try to interfere with elections, or discourage people from participating in the political process, will face serious legal consequences. We will aggressively pursue prosecution to protect our democracy and our democratic process.”
Brazil informally vetoed the admission of the Venezuelan dictatorship as a partner country in BRICS, the new category of association that is the key novelty of the 16th meeting of the group, which began this Tuesday (22) in Kazan.

Women Have Lost 900 Medals to ‘Transgender’ Athletes › American Greatness– amgreatness.com Source Link Excerpt:
A new report from the United Nations reveals that almost 900 medals that should have gone to female athletes have instead been awarded to biological men who believe themselves to be “transgender.”
As reported by Fox News, the report was carried out by Reem Alsalem, the UN Rapporteur on Violence Against Women. The findings were titled “Violence against women and girls in sports.” Alsalem reveals that over 600 athletes failed to receive medals in over 400 competitions across 29 different sports, with the total amount of lost medals being just over 890.
“The replacement of the female sports category with a mixed-sex category has resulted in an increasing number of female athletes losing opportunities, including medals, when competing against males,” his report states. The information collected for the study goes up to March 30th of this year.
In the most recent example, the Ladies Professional Golf Association (LPGA) approved the participation of a male golfer in the most recent tournament, despite 275 female golfers signing onto an open letter denouncing the decision as unfair to women.
NORTH KOREA INVADES UKRAINE AS BRITAIN SAYS UKRAINE IS ABOUT TO FALL – Reports of North Korean soldiers in Ukraine have been increasing, and now Kyiv is claiming 10,000 troops have joined Russia’s fight against Ukraine. South Korea is demanding North Korea withdraw their troops immediately. Britain claims Ukraine is about to fall, though rumors of both nation’s immanent collapse have been frequent throughout the course of the war.
North Korea has sent 10,000 soldiers to Russia, Western source says – kyivindependent.com Source Link Excerpt:
North Korea has sent 10,000 soldiers to Russia to boost its war efforts against Ukraine, a Western diplomat familiar with the matter told the Kyiv Independent on Oct. 15.
Concerns over the deepening military ties between Moscow and Pyongyang have escalated dramatically this week.
Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky said on Oct. 13 that Russia’s plans for supporting its full-scale invasion of Ukraine would this autumn include “the actual involvement of North Korea in the war.”
The Western diplomat told the Kyiv Independent that it’s unclear what kind of soldiers they are or what their roles were. The Kyiv Independent contacted Ukraine’s Foreign Ministry but did not receive a reply at the time of publication. Ukraine’s military intelligence (HUR) declined to comment.
As Russia and North Korea deepen military ties, Western diplomats and experts stress that it shows Moscow’s increasing need for resources to continue waging its costly war in Ukraine.
“It’s a clear indicator how far Russia and its military have fallen over the last 2.5 years that it’s having to beg, borrow and buy support from North Korea,” John Foreman CBE, the U.K.’s former defense attache in Moscow from 2019 to 2022, told the Kyiv Independent.

Behind closed doors, the British military has grim expectations for the Ukraine conflict and believes that Kiev is about to lose, the tabloid Daily Express claimed on Tuesday.
Over the past month, Ukrainian leader Vladimir Zelensky has been touting his ‘victory plan’ to foreign leaders. Later this week he is set to unveil it to Ukrainian MPs and the general public, as well as the European Council. What Zelensky will present to his nation on Wednesday will not include specific numbers of requested weapons shipments by donor nations, according to his aide Mikhail Podoliak.
As one of the key suppliers of arms to Ukraine, Britain has publicly supported Kiev’s uncompromising position in the conflict with Russia. But private assessments by its generals say the situation is bad for Ukraine, a military source cited by Daily Express said.
”I was speaking to a very senior British Army officer today,” the source was quoted as saying. “He told me that Ukraine is on the verge of losing the war against Russia. It’s very serious.”

A Georgia judge decided on Oct. 15 to block a rule about the state hand-counting ballots on election day amid concerns that it could slow down announcing election results.
While Trump is leading across battleground states, the presidential race is still tight. The Republican candidate has a 1.2 point lead, pulling 48.4% support across seven top battleground states compared to Harris trailing behind at 47.2%, according to polling averages from RealClear Polling.
Harris is ahead of Trump nationwide, with a lead of 0.8 points at 49.3% compared to Trump’s 48.5%, according to national polling averages from RealClear Polling.
Trump has made significant strides among black voters. The Democrats have been attempting to shore up support for Harris from black voters amid concerns of weak enthusiasm from the key voting bloc.

Poll Of Arab Americans Stuns Political Pundits, Reveals Game-Changing Development– trendingpoliticsnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
With just two weeks left until Election Day, a new poll of Arab-American voters has shaken up the presidential race. The poll, conducted by YouGov and commissioned by Arab News Research & Studies Unit, reveals that former President Donald Trump holds a slight 2-point lead over Vice President Kamala Harris among Arab-American voters. The significant development comes as the Middle East conflict has taken center stage in the presidential campaigns since last year.
The poll indicates a strong expected turnout, with 87% of Arab-Americans planning to vote in the upcoming election. Palestine remains the top priority for many respondents, a factor that may be driving Trump’s slight lead. His administration’s past policy approaches to the Middle East, compared to Harris’s, appear to resonate with this voter bloc, especially as the ongoing Israel-Palestine conflict dominates headlines.
The poll, conducted between September 26 and October 1, sampled 500 Arab-Americans nationwide. While the poll has a margin of error of +/- 5.93%, it sheds light on the candidates’ standings within this crucial demographic, which could sway results in battleground states like Michigan and Pennsylvania, where Arab-American populations are significant.
SENATE
Pennsylvania Senate Race Moves to ‘Toss Up’ as Dem Bob Casey Loses Ground: Cook Political Report– freebeacon.com Source Link Excerpt:
Pennsylvania’s Senate race has shifted from “lean Democrat” to a “toss up” as incumbent Sen. Bob Casey (D.) loses ground to his Republican challenger Dave McCormick just two weeks before Election Day, according to the Cook Political Report.
Cook stated that the race is now competitive enough to be considered a “toss up,” adding that “both Republican and Democratic internal polls show this is now a margin-of-error race, with Casey holding a slim, statistically insignificant lead of between one and two points.”
As his reelection prospects slip, Casey is aiming to appeal to Donald Trump voters, highlighting in an ad released last week his “siding with” the former president on a trade and tariffs bill in 2017.
Polling released Monday by Atlas Intel shows McCormick with a slight lead over Casey for the first time in the Senate race. Around 48.3 percent of respondents said they would vote for McCormick, while 47.1 percent supported Casey. In September, Casey led McCormick 47 percent to 45 percent, according to Atlas Intel.
Senate battle goes from bad to worse for Democrats – The Hill Source Link Excerpt:
Senate Democrats are facing an increasingly tough road to keeping their majority in the upper chamber as races in crucial swing states tighten with just two weeks until Election Day.
The path to 51 seats was always going to be a long shot for Democrats, who are facing a difficult Senate map featuring multiple incumbents in solidly GOP territory.
But now Democrats are also dealing with Republican candidates in Pennsylvania and Wisconsin quickly closing the gap. The nonpartisan election handicapper Cook Political Report this month shifted both races from “lean Democrat” to “toss-up.” Along with Michigan, the “blue wall” states are now all in the “toss-up” category.
This is heaping pressure on the party to hold the fort in the final stretch.
“This is never going to be easy,” Sen. Michael Bennet (D-Colo.) told reporters Tuesday at the Capitol. “But I believe these races are essentially tied. … To me, it feels like it’s 50-50 all the time.”
EARLY VOTING
If Early Vote Trend Continues, Trump Wins– www.breitbart.com Source Link Excerpt:
Early vote trends in swing states favor of former President Donald Trump and suggest “the election will be over on election day before we know who votes,” political analyst Mark Halperin said Tuesday on The Morning Meeting.
The trends will likely cause the Harris campaign to hit the panic button in the coming days with increased heated rhetoric meant to drive turnout among its supporters.
Halperin, an analyst who attempts to report data without spin, said the early vote in Nevada and North Carolina looks strong for Trump, which is far “more important than the polls right now.” Surveys show Vice President Kamala Harris and Trump virtually tied in all seven battleground states.
In Nevada, North Carolina, and Pennsylvania, Republicans’ early vote trends look strong:
“We don’t know exactly who’s casting these ballots, how they’re voting, etc. But every analyst I’ve talked to in the last 24 hours, including people who speak publicly, say, ‘If this continues, Donald Trump can’t lose because the Democrats can’t possibly do well enough on election day,’” Halperin explained.
The 2020 election is a difficult benchmark to extrapolate to date, but the data appears to be in favor of Trump, Halperin added:
We don’t know what turnout is going to be like. This is a cycle coming out of the COVID cycle. Lots of things are shaken up, but I’ll say again, two things no one will tell you, no matter how partisan they are, no one will tell you that the early voting data is anything but scary for Democrats so far, and if on election day this trend continues, the election will be over on election day before we know who votes.
Early Voting Data From Historically-Blue Counties Shows Stunning Shift In Race– trendingpoliticsnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
With the 2024 election just two weeks away, new early voting data from key Florida counties indicates a noticeable shift that could reshape the presidential race. Traditionally strongholds for Democrats, these counties are showing unexpected Republican leads in early voting figures—a potential boost for former President Donald Trump as he campaigns against Vice President Kamala Harris in a high-stakes sprint to Election Day.
Republicans have gained ground in several prominent Florida counties, the data show, with early voting results revealing surprising Republican leads in historically blue territories. Here’s the current breakdown as of day 2 of early voting:
Duval County: R+4.6
Miami-Dade County: R+12.8
Palm Beach County: R+17.2
Hillsborough County: R+15.4
Pinellas County: R+25.5
Republicans see hints of an early voting edge over Democrats– www.washingtonexaminer.com Source Link Excerpt:
The Trump campaign is cautiously optimistic about early voting data from the seven battleground states two weeks before polls close on Nov. 5.
It’s a turnaround from 2020 when Republicans once ceded the early voting advantage to Democrats as members of the GOP traditionally voted on Election Day and former President Donald Trump criticized absentee ballot or mail-in voting as vehicles for fraud.
Although not all states collect partisan early voting information and an increasing number of voters identify as independent or unaffiliated, the data underscores potential problems for Vice President Kamala Harris, with little time to course correct.

Court decisions in Michigan and North Carolina deny GOP challenges to overseas voters – ABC News Source Link Excerpt:
Courts in Michigan and North Carolina on Monday rejected attempts by Republicans to disqualify the ballots of certain overseas voters.
Both cases targeted people who have never lived in the state but were born overseas to parents who were residents of the state. The Michigan case also targeted the spouses of military and overseas voters.
A state judge in Michigan dismissed the Republicans’ case because it was filed so late — less than a month before the Nov. 5 presidential election. But the judge also found that the election language allowing those voters to cast ballots complied with both state and federal law, as well as the Michigan Constitution.
The state GOPs and the Republican National Committee were among the plaintiffs bringing both cases, which were filed as part of a broader legal strategy against overseas ballots in presidential battleground states ahead of the Nov. 5 election.
The RNC did not immediately return requests for comment.

When confronted with another example, he would say, “I don’t remember it happening. I know that it did because the entry says that it did.”
Biden Calls To ‘Lock’ Up Trump. Immediately Attempts Backtracking From Statement.– americanactionnews.com Source Link Excerpt:
President Joe Biden said Tuesday at New Hampshire’s Democratic National Committee (DNC) office that the party needs to “lock up” former President Donald Trump, quickly adding he meant to “politically” lock him up.
Since 2019, Democrats have been calling for Trump to be behind bars, flipping the script on their previous criticism of Republicans and the former president for calling for former Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to be locked up. While speaking to the DNC office in Concord, New Hampshire, Biden noted how close the race is becoming, claiming Trump believes he has immunity from “physically eliminating” threats.
“All of it’s on a knife’s edge. It’s on a knife’s edge right now. So this is really, really, really, really important right now. Folks, look, think about it. He is talking about doing away with the entire Department of Education — he means it, this is not a joke. This [is] a guy who also wants to replace every civil servant, every single one,” Biden said.

Rudy Giuliani Has Been Ordered to Hand Over Manhattan Apartment, Luxury Watches, Valuables- to Georgia Election Workers– wltreport.com Source Link Excerpt:
Rudy Giuliani has been ordered to turn over a large amount of valuables, his Penthouse apartment in Manhattan, and a load of sentimental belongings — and potentially more properties that have yet to be determined — by a federal judge.
The property and valuables will be given to Georgia election workers who won a defamation suit against Giuliani for statements he made questioning the integrity of the vote count — specifically the allegation made by Giuliani that Ruby Freeman and Shaye Moss allegedly committed election fraud when counting ballots in Fulton County, Georgia during the 2020 election.
The following is a CNN report with Michael Gottlieb, the attorney for the Georgia election workers, on the judgment and the assets included in the decision by the judge requiring Giuliani to hand over these specific items to be auctioned off and sold to satisfy the judgment awarded to them.
“We’re gonna fight for every dollar for our clients to satisfy this judgment.”

Liz Cheney Tells Anti-Abortion Conservatives to Support Kamala Harris – newsweek Source Link Excerpt:
Republican Liz Cheney has called on anti-abortion voters to support Vice President Kamala Harris, despite her liberal stance on abortion rights.
The former Wyoming representative, who has been campaigning alongside the Democratic presidential nominee this election, said the issue needed “compassion” and that former President Donald Trump would not be able to handle it.
Speaking in Wisconsin with Harris on Monday, Cheney said: “I’m pro-life, and I have been very troubled, deeply troubled by what I have watched happen in so many states since Dobbs.
“I have been troubled by the extent to which you have women who—as the vice president said—in some cases have died, who can’t get medical treatment that they need because providers are worried about criminal liability.”
Cheney continued: “Even if you are pro-life, as I am, I do not believe, for example, that the state of Texas ought to have the right, as they’re currently suing to do, to get access to women’s medical records.
Left-Wing Dark Money And Unions Team Up To Enshrine Abortion In Florida’s Constitution– dailycaller.com Source Link Excerpt:
As election day approaches and polls narrow, out-of-state groups are pouring tens of millions into Florida to enshrine abortion as a right in the state’s constitution.
Massive Democratic-aligned dark money networks, the Soros family, D.C.-based liberal advocacy groups and public-sector unions have rallied behind Floridians Protecting Freedom (FPF), spending millions to support the group’s effort to repeal Florida’s prohibition on abortion after fetal heartbeats are typically detected, campaign finance records show. FPF is the primary group supporting an initiative on November’s ballot to amend the state’s constitution by creating a constitutional right to terminate one’s pregnancy.
To be added to the state’s constitution, the amendment would need to attract 60% support on election day. A poll in June found that 69% of voters supported that amendment, though an October poll recently found that just 60% of voters reported supporting the abortion initiative, according to the Tallahassee Democrat.
“Now, just barely reaching the 60% it needs to pass, it looks like the fate of abortion in Florida will come down to turnout on Election Day,” University of North Florida political science professor Michael Binder told the Tallahassee Democrat.

DID KAMALA HARRIS JUST HAVE A SENNACHERIB MOMENT? – Kamala Harris was interrupted at her Wisconsin rally recently by someone who shouted in response to her comments on abortion “Jesus is Lord” and “Christ is King.” Kamala appeared to take offense at the mentioning of the name of Christ, firing back “Oh, I think you’re at the wrong rally.”
She added to her blasphemy by lying when she claimed, “I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.” Some Christians cite 2 Kings Chapter 19, where the Assyrian King Sennacherib had laid siege to Jerusalem, taunting God as he went, for which he would see his army smitten by the angel of the Lord (Christ to some).

Beth – “I was pushed by an elderly woman. We were heckled at, we were cursed at, we were mocked, and that’s the biggest thing for me personally. In reflection of the event, Jesus was mocked. You know, his disciples were mocked, and that’s OK.”
Polaske – “In reality, we did God’s work, and we were there for the right reasons, and God is watching us in this moment. I’m all about being a cordial person no matter your beliefs, but I do believe that we were sent there by God.”
TikTok, Facebook Approve Ads With US Election Disinformation, Study Says – Barron’s Source Link Excerpt:
TikTok and Facebook approved advertisements containing blatant US election falsehoods just weeks ahead of the vote, a watchdog investigation revealed Thursday, calling into question the tech platforms’ policies to detect harmful disinformation.
The advocacy group Global Witness submitted eight ads containing false election claims to the Chinese-owned video-sharing app TikTok, the Meta-owned Facebook, and Google-owned YouTube to test their ad systems in the final stretch of the November 5 election.
The ads carried outright election falsehoods — such as people can vote online — as well as content promoting voter suppression, inciting violence against a candidate, and threatening electoral workers and processes.
TikTok “performed the worst,” Global Witness said, approving four of them despite its policy that prohibits all political ads.
Facebook approved one of the ads submitted.
“Days away from a tightly fought US presidential race, it is shocking that social media companies are still approving thoroughly debunked and blatant disinformation on their platforms,” said Ava Lee, the digital threats campaign leader at Global Witness.
Elon Musk quietly donates ‘very substantial’ amount to PAC to canvass Hispanic voters – Fox News Source Link Excerpt:
Tech billionaire Elon Musk has quietly donated a “very substantial” amount of his own money directly to a PAC that is canvassing Hispanic voters ahead of the 2024 presidential election, Fox News has learned.
Musk donated to a PAC called The Hispanic Leadership Alliance, which is canvassing voters in Arizona, California and Oregon to help Republicans up and down ballot.
Fox News has also learned that the latest FEC filings for The Hispanic Leadership Alliance will be released to the public on Thursday and will reveal the extent of Musk’s financial support. Musk’s donation to the PAC came from Musk directly and not through one of his PACs or organizations. The PAC has used the money in recent weeks to get out the Hispanic vote for Republicans.
Far-Left Los Angeles Times Abandons Kamala Harris: California’s Biggest Newspaper Refuses to Endorse Their Home State Candidate, Despite Backing Obama, Clinton, and Biden | The Gateway Pundit– www.thegatewaypundit.com Source Link Excerpt:
Far-left Los Angeles Times, California’s largest newspaper, has turned its back on Kamala Harris, refusing to endorse her in the upcoming 2024 presidential election.
This stunning break from tradition marks a sharp shift for the paper, which has consistently endorsed Democrat candidates, including Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton, and Joe Biden.
This refusal to back their home-state candidate speaks volumes about Harris’s diminishing support, even within liberal strongholds.
The LA Times published its endorsements for congressional and local elections but conspicuously omitted any recommendation for the presidency.
While the editorial board declared this election as “the most consequential in a generation,” their silence on Harris and the presidency was deafening.
Behind this decision, sources suggest, according to Semafor, is the influence of the paper’s owner, Dr. Patrick Soon-Shiong.
Testimony from a former special prosecutor, Nathan Wade, suggests the Biden-Harris White House has been not only colluding with local and state Soros-funded DAs to lawfare assault former President Donald Trump, they even groomed their future lawfare assassins and walked them through the whole process.
Wade pleaded a bad memory when confronted by the House Judiciary Committee but acknowledged the multiple times he wrote invoices for Fulton County to pay for meetings with the White House Counsel. When confronted with another example, he would say, “I don’t remember it happening. I know that it did because the entry says that it did.”
Trump Prosecutor Met with Biden-Harris White House Multiple Times, According to Newly Released Testimony– www.westernjournal.com Source Link Excerpt:
A now-ousted special prosecutor against former President Donald Trump in Fulton County, Georgia, might have been his own worst witness when it comes to President Joe Biden’s White House.
Nathan Wade, who was booted from his role overseeing the Trump prosecution because of a romantic relationship with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis, confirmed in a newly released deposition that he’d had lengthy meetings with the Biden White House while still on the Trump case.
But he claimed he can’t remember a thing about them — while he was paid $250 an hour for his time.
In the Oct. 15 grilling by the House Judiciary Committee, a transcript shows, Wade was confronted with invoices showing he had billed Fulton County taxpayers repeatedly for conferences with Biden White House counsel.
One, dated May 23, 2022, indicated a trip to Athens, Georgia — a distance of about 70 miles from Atlanta — as well as a “conf with White House counsel.”
Yet Wade claimed he could not remember who from the White House was present or even whether the “conf” took place by phone or in person.
At another point, the transcript cites an invoice for “Interview with D.C./White House, November 18th, 2022. Eight hours at $250. Cost $2,000.”
Wade again had little to add: “I don’t remember it happening. I know that it did because the entry says that it did,” he said in the deposition.
That was followed by a series of questions about who was present, what was discussed, and even whether Wade had traveled to Washington for the interview or if someone from the White House had come to him in Georgia.
Are the indictments against Trump politically motivated?
Yes: 99% (158 Votes)
No: 1% (2 Votes)
To all, Wade answered with some version of “I don’t recall.”
At still another point, Wade was asked about an invoice in which he billed Fulton taxpayers $6,000 for three days’ work from Sept. 7-9, 2022 for “Witness interview; conf call D.C.; team meeting.”
Again, Wade could not recall anything about the “conf call.”
In total, as Townhall noted, Wade used the phrases “I don’t recall,” “I can’t recall,” or “I don’t know” almost 60 times.
What is clear, however, is that Wade met with the Biden White House repeatedly while conducting a prosecution of the man the Biden White House feared as Biden’s most potent political opposition.
The fact that Wade claims not to recall anything about those meetings has its own problems.
Wade was being paid handsomely by Fulton County taxpayers for his mental acumen. Lawyers who make $250 an hour are generally expected to have a fairly high-grade intelligence, which generally translates to a reasonably good memory.
To a reasonable American, a man in Wade’s position who claims he can’t remember such important matters as when meetings take place and who attended — when those meetings involve the White House and a crucial front in the Democratic legal war on Trump — is not being very convincing.
In fact, it gives the impression that he’s got something to hide. And that makes him about the worst witness possible.

Christian Students Who Kamala Harris Told Were At The “Wrong Rally” Describe Their Experience At Event – “We Were Mocked”– wltreport.com Source Link Excerpt:
Two Christian students Kamala Harris told were at the “wrong rally” spoke out about their experience at the Wisconsin event.
Grant Beth and Luke Polaske, both juniors at the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse, said Harris’ response to “Christ is king” and “Jesus is Lord” was insulting.
Here’s the clip:
Oh my God…
Someone Shouted “Jesus is Lord” at Kamala’s Rally last night and she said…
“Oh, I think you’re at the wrong rally… I think you meant to go to the smaller one down the street.”
MAGA is the party of Jesus.
Kamala is the party of the devil.
Grant Beth and Luke Polaske, both juniors at the school, told “Fox & Friends Weekend” that they felt persecuted akin to Jesus and his early followers after they shouted such things as “Christ is King!” when the Democratic vice president and presidential candidate started talking about abortion rights.
One of them said Harris even sarcastically waved to him and gave him “an evil smirk” as he held up the cross around his neck and pointed to her while being booted with his pal.
“I was pushed by an elderly woman. We were heckled at, we were cursed at, we were mocked, and that’s the biggest thing for me personally,” Beth said. “In reflection of the event, Jesus was mocked. You know, his disciples were mocked, and that’s OK.
“In reality, we did God’s work, and we were there for the right reasons, and God is watching us in this moment,” he said. “I’m all about being a cordial person no matter your beliefs, but I do believe that we were sent there by God.”
The pair were shouting, “Christ is King!” and “Jesus is Lord!” while getting shoved by some of the rally-goers.
Kamala Harris Made It Clear to Christians She Doesn’t Want Your Vote– www.lifenews.com Source Link Excerpt:
The Joe Biden-Kamala Harris regime in Washington repeatedly has attacked people of faith in America, a nation founded on the morals of the Judeo-Christian community.
They’ve described conservative Catholic groups, parents concerned about radical leftist indoctrination in public schools and pro-life adherents as possible terrorists. They’ve sent grandmothers to prison for opposing abortion with their actions.
They’ve tried to force all doctors, including those with moral objections to killing unborn children, into the nation’s massive abortion industry. They want taxpayers to fund the industry of death, where the intention is that one of every two patients ends up dead.
Religious objections to taking an experimental COVID vax? You’re fired! Same if you don’t abide by the extremist LGBT ideology that men can suddenly become women, just by saying so.
And worse.
Now a report cites recent anti-Christian comments from Harris as offering the potential for long term, and negative, effects for the Democratic Party.
CatholicVote charged, “Kamala Harris exposes her vile hatred toward Christians once again by ridiculing a rallygoer for invoking the name of God.”
In a lengthy ruling Wednesday in which she rebuffed most of Trump attorney’s requests for discovery in his 2020 election subversion case, Chutkan, 62, swatted down concerns about potentially inconsistent statements from law enforcement as to whether the former president was responsible.

Kamala Harris Plagiarized Pages of Congressional Testimony From a Republican Colleague. Plus, a Fictionalized Story About Human Trafficking.– freebeacon.com Source Link Excerpt:
On April 24, 2007, Kamala Harris testified before Congress in support of the John R. Justice Prosecutors and Defenders Incentive Act of 2007. The bill, which was introduced that year but never passed the upper chamber, would have created a student loan repayment program for state and local prosecutors, and Harris, then the district attorney of San Francisco, argued it would draw top legal talent to offices like hers.
In a written statement to the House Judiciary Committee, she described how debt-addled prosecutors often decamp to the private sector a few years into the job, lured by the prospect of higher pay that could be used to pay off law school debt. That dynamic had left many district attorneys’ offices short-staffed, she said, forcing them to put rookie attorneys on complex cases.
“There are numerous criminal cases that are particularly difficult because of the dynamics involved,” Harris wrote. “To name just a few—child abuse, elder neglect, domestic violence, identity theft and public corruption. The stakes are simply too high to allow any attorney other than experienced prosecutors to handle these matters.”
By repaying the loans of prosecutors and public defenders, Harris argued, the bill, which had been introduced with bipartisan support, would provide an incentive for lawyers to enter public service, or at least diminish the incentive to leave it.
Former Obama Attorney General Suing Department of Defense on Behalf of Chinese Company › American Greatness– amgreatness.com Source Link Excerpt:
A former high-ranking cabinet official in the Obama Administration is providing legal services to a Chinese military company as it files a lawsuit against the Department of Defense (DOD).
As the Daily Caller reports, former Attorney General Loretta Lynch, who served as the final Attorney General in Barack Obama’s Cabinet from 2015 to 2017, is one of the five attorneys representing Chinese drone manufacturer DJI. Her services, along with the other four lawyers, are being provided by the firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton, & Garrison.
DJI filed its lawsuit on October 18th, challenging the Pentagon’s decision to designate the company as a “Chinese military company.” DJI was added to the Pentagon’s list of Section 1260H entities, determining that the company is “directly or indirectly owned, controlled or beneficially owned by” the Chinese military, and provides direct support to Chinese weapons manufacturing.
Lynch’s lawsuit claims that DJI “is neither owned nor controlled by the Chinese military and … sells only ‘consumer and commercial’ — not military — drones.” The company also insists that, as a result of the designation by the DOD, the company has suffered “ongoing financial and reputational harm.”
In a blistering statement on Monday, Congresswoman Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.), declared that “Barack Obama’s former Attorney General Loretta Lynch has turned her back on her nation, selling out to our greatest adversary Communist China and suing the United States on behalf of CCP-owned drone company DJI.”
“Not only is her lawsuit full of factual errors, it is also an obvious effort by DJI to distract from CBP’s recent halting of DJI imports due to Uyghur slave labor concerns and a futile attempt to disrupt the momentum behind my unanimously passed Countering CCP Drones Act,” Stefanik continued. “DJI’s time in the United States is rightfully coming to an end and Loretta Lynch’s sham lawsuit is not going to save them.”
Responding to Government Censors’ Crackdown on Online Slang and Memes, Chinese Internet Users Protest, “We Want to Speak Properly, but You Won’t Let Us!”– chinadigitaltimes.net Source Link Excerpt:
Chinese internet users are taking issue with a recent announcement that the Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) and Ministry of Education are trying to standardize online speech by cracking down on the use of “irregular and uncivilized language and text” appearing on the homepages, trending search lists, and suggested content sections of major online platforms. Such verboten speech includes variant or homophonic Chinese characters, abbreviations, online slang, “bad” memes, and phrases whose meaning seems obscure.
An October 11 Weibo post from The Paper (a digital newspaper owned and operated by state-owned Shanghai United Media Group) about the CAC’s latest campaign elicited an outpouring of comments from Chinese netizens. Many blamed government censors and large online platforms for censoring so many words and phrases that ordinary internet users have no choice but to turn to abbreviations, obscure language, variant characters, and homophones in order to express themselves online. “As the number of words we’re allowed to say shrinks, the volume of online slang expands,” commented one Weibo user. “It’s not clear what their underlying logic is—they just keep blindly banning things.” Another wrote: “Want to hazard a guess as to why jargon, bad memes, and obscure expressions proliferate?”
By October 14, comment filtering had been activated for The Paper’s Weibo post, and many of the comments under it disappeared. Numerous Weibo users noted the irony of censoring comments about censoring slang that itself arose as a response to online censorship. CDT Chinese editors have archived some of the now-deleted Weibo comments, a selection of which are translated below:
-孤卷残云:I think the official media ought to be banned from creating “bad memes”! The [euphemism] “malicious requests for unpaid wages” is one example.
迪南美:There are too many “sensitive words,” so we use homophones instead.
鸉鵗:Those words were invented to avoid using censored words.
恋枫居士:Why don’t you first make the various platform censors’ lists of blocked words public?
卡铱诺特:You don’t want to hear meaningful online speech.
双椒麻辣鱼头:Cut down on the number of banned words, and you’ll see an increase in the number of people who can speak properly.
大二笨WH:The point is that we want to speak properly, but you won’t let us!
库特纳霍拉的骨头:Vloggers use all sorts of abbreviations and shorthand in their video subtitles. You think it’s just because they enjoy being inventive?
河南原神小王:Who are the ones really polluting the Chinese language? Just look at the subtitles for TV programs, the most popular form of media. Even in a simple expression like “I’m dying of laughter,” the word “dying” has to be placed in quotation marks. And you’re blaming the public? With your invisible red lines and pointless censorship, you’re the ones who have perverted language, and driven my mother tongue from the land where she was born.
慕有枝613:Wouldn’t the most effective solution be to get rid of lists of “sensitive words”?
玫瑰色的我___ : “Abbreviations and symbols are not my mother tongue.”
珊煜君_山芋君:The simplified Chinese internet isn’t suited to proper speech. [Chinese]
Uh Oh! Democrats’ Silver Bullet Issue Is Losing Its Power This Election – PJ Media– pjmedia.com Source Link Excerpt:
In the spring of 2022, Team Red was eagerly rubbing its hands together in anticipation of walloping the Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections. Then SCOTUS handed down its Dobbs v. Jackson decision, and we became the proverbial dog that caught the car.
Democrats seized their opportunity. I wrote at the time that “Democrats are going all-in on a massive abortion pep rally in the 2022 midterm races. They’re heading into the election cycle homestretch with a massive $124 million already spent on pro-abortion television ads — nearly 20 times what they spent pushing pregnancy termination in the 2018 midterms…”
In the end, we watched our promised red wave dry up into a pink trickle and instead had our a**es handed to us. And with its recently corrected status as a legislative matter, abortion promised to be a perennial issue. Right-wing strategists fretted that, with abortion on the table in every upcoming election from now on, there would always be enough single-issue pro-abortion voters to make it impossible for Republicans ever to win another election in almost every state as well as nationally.
I worried about this as well, but I was also hopeful that people would now be free to decide the abortion issue in a more regional and democratic manner. I figured it would settle into an uneasy peace sooner or later. Now, it looks as though the issue may already be easing down the importance scale, in time for the 2024 election.
Exhibit A is Florida. In April 2023, Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis signed the state’s “Heartbeat Protection Act,” banning most abortions after six weeks of gestation. The political strategist in me cringed. Florida’s deep red hue of recent years has been such a morale booster, that I was loathe to see it lost in the abortion wars. After legal challenges failed, the law went into effect last May, and I winced again. This election is crucial to America’s preservation, and if we couldn’t even hold Florida, what chance did the rest of the country have?
