On Thursday, May 21, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) released a report examining the party's performance in the 2024 elections. The 192-page postmortem argued that Democrats must “organize everywhere to Win Anywhere” and particularly advocated for a “renewed focus on the voters of Middle America and the South.” However, the organization distanced itself from the document's findings. In a Substack post accompanying the report's release, DNC Chair Ken Martin said, “I don't endorse what's in this report, or what's left out of it.”Announcing our fourth guest for West Virginia!We're excited to announce that Free Press columnist Kat Rosenfield will join our on-stage lineup at Tangle's next in-person event in Berkeley Springs, West Virginia, on June 14.

Hey Friends I am still fighting a rare but tough cold and so I was not able to produce a news segment today but I do have a GREAT conversation with a brilliant first time guest that I think you will love I hope you had a great weekend and I am happy we made to to May together All of Atima's Links Named to Ebony Magazine's "Power 100" list of emerging leaders and Jet Magazine's "40 Under 40" list, Atima Omara works and leads at the intersection of electoral politics and issue advocacy in the progressive movement. She is a political strategist, advocate, trainer, leader, and speaker with significant political, government, and non-profit experience, and she is a sought-after commentator and strategist. As the President & Chief Strategist of Omara Strategy Group, she provides strategic consulting to progressive candidates and organizations centering women and people of color in their mission and work. She strategizes with candidates and political organizations to win victories for a more reflective progressive democracy. An American-born child of Black immigrants, Atima realized early the importance of catalyzing social and electoral change from both the grassroots and leadership levels—especially among underrepresented communities. She has worked as Special Assistant to then-Virginia Governor Mark Warner, and then went to work as an organizer in multiple states with a union and community organizations on voter registration, ballot initiatives, and get-out-the-vote operations in low-income communities of color and immigrant communities. She is also a former candidate for public and political party office herself, and draws from her lived and professional experience to train activists to organize and candidates from historically marginalized communities to run for office for many organizations including: Emerge America, Higher Heights for America, Vote Run Lead, Running Start, New American Leaders, and National Council for Independent Living. Prior to that, Atima built her executive leadership experience from serving as Vice President of Reproductive Health Technologies Project, a research based advocacy organization; a Director on the political project #VOTEPROCHOICE (VPC) where she managed successful voter engagement campaigns on behalf of VPC for progressive state and local candidates; and as a nationally elected leader of the Young Democrats of America (YDA), the nation's largest partisan youth organization from 2013-15. She was the first Black president and only the fifth woman to lead the organization in its 80+ year history. During her tenure as YDA President, she grew national membership and led an independent expenditure to targeted states in 2014 that increased the youth vote turnout for Democrats in critical races. She is an original board member for Emerge Virginia and a founding board member of Virginia's List PAC, two organizations helping to elect more Democratic women. She previously served as Board Chair and Vice Chair of the Planned Parenthood Metro Washington Action Fund. The seasoned political leader is currently an elected member of the Democratic National Committee (DNC) since 2016 and elected vice chair of the DNC's Women's Caucus since 2017.

A longtime party leader and organizer, he brings more than 20 years of experience working on behalf of progressive candidates and causes.

[SEGMENT 1-1] Democracy WAS on the ballot 1 I read an article where the author claimed that Democrats screed about "democracy is on the ballot" fell short. I disagreed. Democracy was indeed on the ballot in 2024, just not in the way Democrats intended. Democrats plastered the phrase across ads, speeches, and campaign rallies. But their actions told a very different story. As Vice President Kamala Harris and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) insisted they were the stewards of democratic ideals, they sabotaged their own processes. They silenced dissenters, and manipulated election mechanisms in ways that left even their own base skeptical. Ironically, this made their loss to Donald Trump not only inevitable, but richly poetic. Democracy by Any Means Necessary? The Democrats' rallying cry of “saving democracy” was undermined from the start. Shielding Joe Biden from primary challengers was their first move, a tactic that looked more like damage control than democratic engagement. Prominent figures like Representative Dean Phillips (D-Minn.) and Marianne Williamson openly criticized this strategy. They sounded the alarm, warning that Biden's isolation from scrutiny would backfire. The DNC then doubled down by canceling the Florida primary outright and attempting similar maneuvers in Wisconsin, only to be blocked by the courts. When Robert F. Kennedy Jr. dared to challenge the Democratic establishment, they deployed an entire “war room” to discredit him. Ultimately, they not only pushed him out of the race as a Democrat, but they push him out of the party altogether. Meanwhile, Harris—who dropped out of the 2020 race without earning a single vote—was anointed as the party's new figurehead once Biden became too much of a liability. Their so-called defense of democracy had all the hallmarks of a monarchy, minus the pageantry. Democracy for Us, Not for You It wasn't just presidential politics where the Democrats' hypocrisy shone. In multiple states, they fought tooth and nail against ballot measures aimed at expanding voter participation. Reforms in Arizona, Colorado, Washington, D.C., Nevada, and South Dakota sought to give independent voters a voice in primary elections. But the Democrats actively campaigned against these reforms. The message was clear: democracy is fine as long as it serves our interests.  [SEGMENT 1-2] Democracy WAS on the ballot 2   [X] SB – Katt Williams on CNN being wrong This isn't a new phenomenon. For years, the DNC has resisted primary election reform, even in states where it could strengthen democratic processes. In places like California and Washington, where voters implemented open primaries, the party has lobbied to return to exclusionary systems. The irony? The party that brands itself as the champion of democracy consistently works to suppress it when it threatens their grip on power. The 14th Amendment Fiasco As the general election approached, Democrats took their anti-democratic antics to new heights. In states like Colorado and Michigan, they pursued legal battles to bar Trump from the ballot, citing the 14th Amendment's clause against aiding an “insurrection.” It was a novel—and transparently desperate—interpretation of constitutional law. Voters saw it for what it was: a last-ditch attempt to win by disqualification rather than persuasion. This legal gambit didn't just fail; it galvanized the Trump base and alienated moderate voters. Americans may have disagreements about Trump, but they overwhelmingly rejected the notion that the electoral process should be circumvented to deny voters their choice. When Hypocrisy Meets Reality Democracy wasn't just on the ballot—it was the ballot. And voters delivered a resounding verdict: they want leadership that respects the process, not a party that manipulates it. While Democrats lamented their loss, leaders like Nancy Pelosi now bemoan the very lack of openness they orchestrated. It's a convenient pivot, but one that smacks of opportunism, rather than genuine reflection. The broader issue here isn't just that the Democratic Party lost—it's that they lost credibility. For years, they've positioned themselves as defenders of democracy while engaging in the very behaviors they accuse Republicans of: voter suppression, exclusionary tactics, and backroom deals. This hypocrisy has finally caught up with them, and voters are no longer buying what they're selling. A Lesson in True Democracy Americans care deeply about democracy, despite what pundits might suggest. But they won't be lectured by a party that cancels primaries, silences challengers, and manipulates election systems. In 2024, voters made it clear that they're tired of being told what democracy looks like by Leftist demons who have no intent of practicing it. As Democrats process their historic loss, they have a choice to make. They can continue down the path of hypocrisy, or they can take a hard look at their own undemocratic tendencies and work to rebuild trust. Either way, democracy has spoken—and it's Trump who emerged as its unlikely standard-bearer.  [SEGMENT 1-3] Democracy WAS on the ballot 3   [X] SB – Scott Jennings asked by Blitzer why Harris lost No one to blame but themselves. I asked myself this, because I like to think like our opponents. How could you not see this coming? [X] SB – Squawk Box Joe Kernen torches Scaramucci  [SEGMENT 1-4] Democracy WAS on the ballot 4   [X] SB – TikTok influencer on voting for Trump Marc Cuban out Joy Reid out AOC voters [X] SB – Guy on Rogan regarding Democrat guilt trips [X] SB – Hugh Hewitt walks out of interview Laying the groundwork for cheating Elections can't be fair unless Trump wins it [X] SB – Scott Jennings on comedic hacks  Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-kevin-jackson-show--2896352/support.

We speak with secular political activist Sarah Levin about the evolving landscape for secular voters within the Democratic Party, the implications of interfaith coalitions, and the role of non-religious constituents in upcoming elections.We also explore Sarah's substantial activism, including her role as founder of Secular Strategies and her efforts to establish secular representation within the Democratic National Committee (DNC). She emphasizes the significant strides made since her last appearance, particularly the inclusion of non-religious voices in the DNC's interfaith efforts and the official endorsement of the principle of separation of church and state in the party's platform for the first time. Doug and Sarah also discuss the challenges that still exist, including the perception issues surrounding secular candidates among both voters and the party apparatus.Sarah reflects on the importance of building a political identity that resonates with both non-religious voters and religious individuals, stressing the necessity of intersectionality in politics. We also focus on voter engagement and the upcoming elections.A critical segment of the conversation addresses the complex U.S. relationship with Israel amidst the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. Sarah articulates her belief that while the U.S. has historically provided unquestioned support to Israel, this is a moment for reevaluation—especially in light of the potential ramifications of a Trump administration, which promises more extreme measures than current policies.Finally we encourage listeners to actively participate in the political process, follow updates on secular candidates, and engage in conversations that amplify the non-religious voice. With Sarah Levin's groundwork laying the foundation for future progress, this episode serves as a clarion call to recognize both the challenges and opportunities that lie ahead for secular individuals in politics.Full Show Notes & LinksSend us a textSupport the showSubscribe to our free newsletterCheck out our MerchFind us on Twitter(for now) Find us on InstagramFind us on Counter SocialFind us on Mastadon

John Mcafee predicted before his death all has come true shocking predictions about the future of the United States, including the forced resignation of President Joe Biden due to medical reasons in September. The Democratic National Committee (DNC), through a little-known legal loophole, will be able to bypass national voting and directly choose Biden's replacement. This revelation sends ripples through political circles, adding fuel to the ongoing debate about the existence and power of the "Deep State." The Deep State refers to career employees in U.S. government agencies, such as the CIA, IRS, and FCC, who allegedly control policy behind the scenes, immune to firing by elected officials. These unelected entities are said to enact regulations that have a far greater impact on American lives than laws passed by Congress. The reality is that while the public remains largely unaware of the Deep State's operations, it controls significant aspects of American foreign and domestic policy. Is this conspiracy or reality? As the power dynamics in Washington shift, with increasing control in the hands of unelected figures, Americans are left questioning: who truly governs the country?

In this episode, we explore the stark contrasts between the Republican National Committee (RNC) and the Democratic National Committee (DNC). We'll also dive into a discussion about the evolving job market and the role of AI in shaping the future of work. Tune in for a thought-provoking conversation!

On Sunday, the Democratic National Committee (DNC) released the party's 2024 platform. In a press release, the DNC noted that the platform had been passed on July 16, prior to President Joe Biden's exit from the presidential race, but that the document “makes a strong statement about the historic work that President Biden and Vice President Harris have accomplished hand-in-hand.” The platform, however, was not updated to reflect that Biden is no longer the nominee, frequently referring to the president's plans for a second term.You can read today's podcast⁠ ⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠, our “Under the Radar” story ⁠here and today's “Have a nice day” story ⁠here⁠.You can watch the entire Tangle Live event at City Winery NYC on our YouTube Channel!Check out Episode 5 of our podcast series, The Undecideds.

In the latest episode of "The Capitalist Investor," hosts Luke Lloyd (Cool Hand Luke) and Derek (Diamond Hands D) dive into some of the most pressing issues in the current economic landscape. With Tony out on assignment, it was an engaging and insightful dialogue between the two hosts covering a multitude of topics that could significantly impact the financial markets and everyday investors. Unrealized Capital Gains Tax at 25%One of the most contentious issues discussed was the proposal by the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to impose a 25% tax on unrealized capital gains. This concept means that investors would be taxed on the potential profit of their investments even if they haven't sold them yet. For example, if you buy a house for $250,000 and its market value rises to $500,000, you would owe taxes on the $250,000 "unrealized" gain. Luke and Derek argue that this would disincentivize investments and could signal the end of capitalism as we know it.Corporate Tax Increase to 28%Another hot topic was the proposal to raise corporate taxes from the current 21% to 28%, a 33% increase. The hosts pointed out that such an increase would likely be passed on to consumers, resulting in higher prices and increased inflation. This policy could stifle economic growth at a time when it may be sorely needed to combat a potential recession.Price Controls on FoodPrice controls on food were another contentious issue brought up during the episode. The hosts vehemently opposed this idea, suggesting that it could lead to supply shortages and inefficiencies in the market. Derek and Luke argue that government price controls could disrupt the natural balance of supply and demand, potentially causing even more severe problems like food shortages.Top Capital Gains Bracket to 44.6%The episode also discussed the idea of raising the top capital gains tax bracket to 44.6% from the current 39%. This significant increase would affect high-income earners and long-term investors. Luke and Derek believe that such a tax hike would deter people from making long-term investments, ultimately hurting the economy.Economic and Political CyclesTowards the end of the episode, the hosts touched on the concept of economic cycles and human behavior, citing Ray Dalio's book "The Changing World Order." They discussed how economic policies often lead to wealth disparities, which can generate public discontent and extreme political actions. The hosts suggest that recognizing these cycles can help investors better understand and navigate the unpredictable political landscape.This episode of "Capitalist Investor" provided a thorough analysis of several pivotal economic policies that could drastically shape the future of both individual investors and the broader economy. From taxing unrealized capital gains to implementing price controls on food, the episode was a critical examination of potential policy impacts. As always, the hosts encouraged listeners to stay informed and consult with financial professionals to navigate these turbulent times.Tune in next time for more in-depth discussions and insights on The Capitalist Investor!

The political stage is abuzz after recent revelations concerning the infamous Robert F. Kennedy Jr, who, in an unexpected turn of events, unveiled the identity of his vice-presidential candidate. This surprise move has set the wheels of consternation in motion within the Democratic camp, prompting an intense backlash from party members. This iconic figure, whose surname is interwoven with Democratic history and legacy, boldly claimed his independence, veering from the party platform, and choosing Nicole Shanahan, an accomplished lawyer and technology business pioneer, as his running-mate. This unexpected announcement has not been received well by party members, with many in the Democratic side escalating their assaults on his candidacy. Kennedy's decision has led to considerable disarray within the party; party members fearing the worst—insiders remark that this is their 'worst nightmare come true'. The uproar is palpable to all who are witnessing it—a notable departure from the regal silence often associated with such matters. Matt Keelen, a key figure in the political strategy landscape and principal of The Vogel Group, chimes in on Kennedy's transformation from a respected figure within the Democratic family tree to an object of scorn from the very party his family name helped build. Keelen's comments seem to depict an Affection for Kennedy's audacious departure, remarking on how ironic it is that this esteemed Democrat offspring was practically ousted from the very party that has drawn heavily from the Kennedy legacy. In less than a fortnight since Kennedy stepped into the limelight of presidential candidacy, unveiling Shanahan as his VP, he became a favored target for criticism from a party he once revered. This announcement also led to an urgent conference call hosted by the Democratic National Committee (DNC). It became apparent to wide-eyed observers that a state of trepidation had engulfed the party's leadership. Austin Davis, the Lt. Governor of Pennsylvania, was amongst those rallying the troops. His words on the call were an unmistakable proclamation of unwanted disruption from Kennedy: 'He's a spoiler', Davis said, detailing the concerted efforts of the party towards re-election of Biden and Harris.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Robert F. Kennedy Jr's speculated vice presidential pick, Nicole Shanahan exhibits a tendency towards left-leaning ideologies, particularly, her notable support for 'criminal justice' initiatives. This is a surprising turn as Kennedy Jr. staunchly showcased a newfound political independence this past October, parting ways with his previous affiliation - the Democratic Party. He announced, 'It's time I charted my independent course, away from the Democrats and indeed, all political factions.' Despite this declaration, Shanahan's record places her firmly within the Democrat camp, with multiple contributions towards Joe Biden and the Democratic Party. Kennedy Jr. has significantly distanced himself from the Democratic Party, seeking to cultivate an independent presence in the political realm. However, his veep choice, Shanahan, does not display a similar political middleground. Her historical affinities lean towards Democrats, with ample financial support for Joe Biden, reaching into the thousands. Drawing from a report by the New York Times, Shanahan, once married to Google's co-founder Sergey Brin, bears a long history of bankrolling Democratic campaigns. This included President Biden's 2020 race when she offered substantial donations. Interestingly, she also backed Kennedy Jr.'s presidency campaign in May 2023 when he still identified as a Democrat. Additional details reveal that Shanahan provided considerable contributions towards the Biden campaign in 2020, a hefty sum of $30,000, as indicated by Federal Election Commission (FEC) data. Moreover, she has made recurring donations to ActBlue, the Democratic fundraising entity, and even the Democratic National Committee (DNC). Beyond this, Shanahan has actively participated in influencing political decisions regarding 'criminal justice.' In an interview with San Francisco Magazine in 2021, she proudly referred to herself as a significant funding contributor for 'Measure J' in Los Angeles County. The said 'Measure J' involves changes to the local charter. It stipulates that no less than 10% of locally created unrestricted income must be re-invested in community development and alternate solutions to incarceration. The measure also prohibits the misappropriation of these funds towards carceral systems and law enforcement agencies. In that same 2021 San Francisco Magazine interview, Shanahan put forth her perspective on the George Floyd incident. She proposed that the presence of a mental health professional at the scene could have potentially altered the course of the tragic event. According to the magazine, Shanahan's commitment to transformative justice predates the rise of the Black Lives Matter movement. Shanahan shared, 'About five years ago, I suggested to the head of Sergey's foundation that 'criminal justice reform' was poised to be one of the defining issues of our generation. I am proud to have contributed significantly to 'Measure J' in Los Angeles County, rerouting some of the law enforcement budget towards mental and social support services.' Expanding upon her thoughts, Shanahan argued that the arrival of a mental health professional during George Floyd's arrest could have defused the tension, maybe even saving his life. These sentiments reflect Shanahan's deep-rooted belief in transforming the criminal justice system. Moreover, Charlie Kirk, founder of the conservative youth organization Turning Point USA, highlighted an additional aspect of Shanahan's political inclinations. According to him, Shanahan is a substantial donor to George Gascon, the prosecutor reputed for his pro-crime stance and backed by Soros. Gascon achieved notoriety for his role in upsetting the San Francisco status quo and is currently viewed as detrimental to Los Angeles. Concluding his assessment, Kirk labelled Shanahan's selection as a clear left-leaning tactic by Kennedy Jr., aimed at consolidating his progressive credentials. He noted this move could potentially alienate common-sense independents and centrist voters, who are wary of escalating crime rates yet intrigued by Kennedy Jr.'s campaign. Kirk further explained his concern: 'Kennedy Jr.'s VP pick, Nicole Shanahan, has financially backed George Gascon, the pro-crime, Soros-backed prosecutor whose tenure has led to negative consequences for San Francisco and is currently disturbing the peace in LA.' He also acknowledged her support for 'Measure J,' a Los Angeles initiative that rerouted spending from law enforcement, a detail that further corroborates Shanahan's alignment with left-leaning ideologies. Her involvement with these initiatives signals her political persuasion. The dynamics of Kennedy Jr.'s political campaign continue to evolve with Nicole Shanahan's potential inclusion as his vice-presidential pick. Though he aims to redefine himself as an independent candidate, his choice in Shanahan, with her well-documented support for Democratic causes, blurs this self-professed independence. The objective now lies in whether this would impact Kennedy Jr.'s campaign, especially in terms of attracting centrist voters and those with a practical approach to crime prevention. Only time will tell if this mixture of independence and distinct left-leaning sympathies can strike a favorable chord with the electorate.

The Rich Zeoli Show- Hour 1: Why is Governor Phil Murphy (D-NJ) suddenly making fewer radical decisions? According to a report from Brady Knox of The Washington Examiner: “Earlier in October, Dr. Ronald G. Taylor, superintendent of schools for the South Orange-Maplewood School District, sent a letter to parents announcing that no Halloween celebrations would be held by the school district, claiming that doing so may ‘violate the dignity of some of our students and families, either culturally or religiously.' The cancellation of the holiday was bashed by the governor.” And on Thursday, Governor Murphy vetoed a bill that would have increased tolls across New Jersey—is he nervous Republicans could take back the state's legislative branch in the next election? You can read Knox's full article here: https://www.washingtonexaminer.com/policy/education/new-jersey-murphy-slams-school-canceling-halloween On Tuesday, Joe Biden's campaign manager Julie Chavez Rodriguez confirmed that the president will not appear on New Hampshire's 2024 Democrat primary ballot, following the Democratic National Committee (DNC) decision to place South Carolina first in the primary cycle. New Hampshire, which has traditionally been the party's first primary, has vowed to defy the DNC and hold their vote prior to South Carolina. During Thursday's White House press briefing, National Security Council Coordinator for Strategic Communications John Kirby was asked to clarify President Joe Biden's comments about civilian casualties potentially being an unfortunate side-effect of Israel's quest to eradicate Hamas. In response, Kirby slammed Hamas for their routine violation of human rights and barbaric actions, explaining that Israel has a right to defend itself. According to David Wildstein of The New Jersey Globe: “Dr. Henrilynn Ibezim has been charged with telling campaign workers to complete hundreds of fake voter registration applications and mail them to election officials in Union County and allegedly bringing a large white garbage bag stuffed with almost 954 voter registration forms to the post office.” You can read the full article here: https://newjerseyglobe.com/local/ex-plainfield-mayoral-candidate-charged-with-mailing-nearly-1000-bogus-voter-registration-forms/

Jamaal Bowman (D-NY) pulled a fire alarm in the Cannon House Office Building just prior to the House holding its vote on a stopgap spending measure to avoid a government shutdown. Although Rep. Bowman has claimed he pulled the alarm in error, some have speculated that it was a tactic to delay the House vote—providing Democrat members of the House additional time to read through the Republican proposed legislation. On Thursday, Bowman pleaded guilty to falsely pulling the fire alarm at a congressional office building—a misdemeanor. He will have to pay a $1,000 fine, serve a three-month probation, and write a letter of apology. 5:20pm- Brooke Singman of Fox News reports: “The FBI maintained more than 40 confidential human sources on various criminal matters related to the Biden family, including Joe Biden, dating back to his time as vice president, according to information obtained by Sen. Chuck Grassley…Grassley learned that an FBI task force within the Washington Field Office sought to, and in some cases, successfully, shut down reporting and information from those sources by falsely discrediting the information as foreign disinformation. That effort ‘caused investigative activity to cease.'” You can read the full report here: https://www.foxnews.com/politics/fbi-received-criminal-information-40-confidential-sources-joe-biden-hunter-jim-grassley 5:30pm- Perhaps unsurprisingly, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) and Minority Leader Mitch McConnell are both advocating for packaging Ukrainian aid and Israeli aid together in the same spending bill. 5:50pm- Maddie Hanna of The Philadelphia Inquirer writes, “The Pennridge School District has adopted a policy specifying that sports teams are divided by sex, barring transgender students from participating on teams aligned with their gender identities. The policy, passed unanimously by the school board Tuesday, follows a move by the district earlier this year requiring that students use group bathrooms based on sex, rather than gender identity.” You can read Hanna's full article here: https://www.inquirer.com/education/pennridge-athletics-policy-sex-transgender-20231025.html 5:55pm- Matt defends his decision to forgo wine and instead drink Coca-Cola with pizza while in Italy.

Despite initial suppression, the narrative has been widely accepted as the most likely cause of the virus. 6:40pm- On Wednesday, Rep. Mike Johnson (R-LA) became the 56th Speaker of the House of Representatives with a 220 to 209 floor vote—ending three-weeks of Republican infighting with unanimous support for his candidacy. In his first speech as Speaker from the House floor, Johnson vowed to “ensure that our republic remains standing as the great beacon of hope, light, and freedom in a world that desperately needs it.” MSNBC condemned the selection of Johnson citing his expressed doubts about the outcome of the 2020 presidential election. However, didn't MSNBC spend years expressing similar doubts about the legitimacy of Donald Trump's election victory in 2016—baselessly blaming Russian interference? 6:50pm- Many progressive media outlets and politicians, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, have denounced Mike Johnson's speakership—referring to him as an “election denier.” On X, President of American Commitment Phil Kerpen highlights the hypocrisy, noting that following the 2016 election Jeffries' tweeted: “The more we learn about 2016 election the more illegitimate it becomes. America deserves to know whether we have a fake president in the Oval Office #RussianInterference.”

Mike Johnson was elected by the House to become the next speaker as Republicans rallied behind their fourth nominee to replace former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Johnson could afford only a handful of defections from his fellow Republicans in the chamber-wide vote, but unlike prior candidates, there were no defections to his candidacy from his party. He won 220 votes, needing around 217 to become speaker. Democrats meanwhile continued to vote for Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. He picked up 209 votes from his fellow Democrats. Johnson scored his party's nomination late Tuesday, with several members absent and three voting present. In just the hours from Tuesday, though, Johnson has shored up support from the three Republicans who voted present in Tuesday's late nomination vote. Johnson also got support from President Trump, who gave his support for the GOP nominee, urging Republicans to "get it done, fast" ahead of a potential House speaker vote. DNC says House GOP will 'have to answer' for electing 'MAGA' Mike Johnson as speaker The Democratic National Committee (DNC) took aim at newly-elected House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., Wednesday just before he won a House-wide vote to replace former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., saying Republicans would "have to answer" to voters in 2024 for supporting him. “Many Americans are waking up this morning wondering — who is Mike Johnson? We’re here to help: MAGA Republicans’ new speaker-designate supports extreme nationwide abortion bans," DNC National Press Secretary Sarafina Chitika said in a statement. "He led the charge for Donald Trump denying President Biden’s legitimate election win and tried to overthrow the votes of 81 million Americans. He’s a leading proponent of slashing Social Security and Medicare," she said. Chitika called Johnson a "carbon-copy" of "MAGA extremism," and predicted House Republicans would have to answer for supporting him when voters head to the polls in 2024. "Make no mistake: The American people will hold them accountable for this choice," she added. Republicans celebrate newly minted House Speaker Mike Johnson's gavel ascension Republicans celebrated the election of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., after he ascended to the gavel on Wednesday. Johnson was elected speaker via a vote of 220-209, taking over the gavel from Speaker pro-tempore Patrick McHenry, R-N.C. Republicans were ecstatic about the election of Johnson, with House Majority Whip Tom Emmer — who secured the GOP's speaker nomination on Tuesday before bowing out — writing his congratulations to the new speaker. "Congratulations to my friend and colleague, [Johnson], on being elected Speaker of the House!" Emmer posted. "His strong convictions and commitment to conservatism will serve this body and the American people well," Emmer added. Rep. Byron Donalds, R-Fla., who also ran for House speaker, wrote "servant leadership," with a picture of the new speaker's nameplate "God bless America," Donalds wrote. https://www.foxnews.com/politics/new-report-unmasks-true-costs-electric-vehicle-mandates-remain-expensive New report unmasks true costs of electric vehicle mandates: 'Remain more expensive' A sweeping first-of-its-kind analysis published by think tank Texas Public Policy Foundation (TPPF) concludes that electric vehicles (EV) would cost tens of thousands of dollars more if not for generous taxpayer-funded incentives. According to the TPPF report — authored by energy experts Jason Isaac and Brent Bennett — the average model year 2021 EV would cost approximately $48,698 more to own over a 10-year period without the staggering $22 billion in taxpayer-funded handouts that the government provides to electric car manufacturers and owners. The analysis factors in federal fuel efficiency programs, electric grid strain, and direct state and federal subsidies. "It is not an overstatement to say that the federal government is subsidizing EVs to a greater degree than even wind and solar electricity generation and embarking on an unprecedented endeavor to remake the entire American auto industry," the report states. "Despite these massive incentives, EVs are receiving a tepid response from the majority of Americans who cannot shoulder their higher cost." "It’s time for federal and state governments to stop driving the American auto industry off an economic cliff and allow markets to drive further improvements in cost and efficiency," it continues. The report determined that, thanks to a special multiplier that has existed for more than two decades, EVs receive roughly seven times more credits under federal fuel efficiency programs than they provide in actual fuel economy benefits. That figure, the total regulatory credits from federal and state fuel efficiency and greenhouse gas emissions standards, amounts to an average of $27,881 per vehicle for EV makers. Further, the analysis calculated the socialized cost of EV charging stations' strain on the U.S. electric grid amounts to an average of $11,833 per EV over 10 years. Such costs are shouldered by utility ratepayers and taxpayers, many of whom may not own an EV. And, finally, state governments and the federal government provide an average of $8,984 per EV over 10 years in direct taxpayer-funded subsidies. "The stark reality for proponents of EVs and for the dreamers in the federal government, who are using fuel economy regulations to force manufacturers to produce ever more EVs, is that the true cost of an EV is in no way close to a comparable [internal combustion engine vehicle (ICEV)]," the report concludes. "Without increased and sustained government favors, EVs will remain more expensive than ICEVs for many years to come," it states. "Hence why, even with these subsidies, EVs have been challenging for dealers to sell and why basic economic realities indicate that the Biden administration’s dream of achieving 100% EVs by 2040 will never become a reality." The TPPF report, meanwhile, comes as lawmakers at the federal and state level continue to take aim at traditional gas-powered vehicles while boosting EVs. President Biden has set a goal of ensuring 50% of all car sales are zero-emissions by 2030 and his administration has pursued rigorous restrictions on gas-powered vehicles. In December 2022, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) finalized rules, which targeted heavy-duty trucks, that it said at the time were the "strongest-ever national clean air standards to cut smog- and soot-forming emissions" from such vehicles. The new standards went into effect on March 27 and will be implemented for new trucks sold after 2027. Then, in April, the EPA proposed the most aggressive federal tailpipe emissions rules on light- and medium-duty emissions ever crafted. If finalized and implemented, 67% of new sedan, crossover, SUV and light truck purchases, up to 50% of bus and garbage truck purchases, 35% of short-haul freight tractor purchases, and 25% of long-haul freight tractor purchases could be electric by 2032, the White House projected. Months later, in July, the Department of Transportation's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration issued its most aggressive fuel economy standards ever, an action critics say would increase consumer costs. And last year, the EPA also reinstated California’s authority under the Clean Air Act to implement its own emission standards and electric vehicle sales mandates, allowing other states to also adopt California's rules. The state then approved regulations that mandated all car purchases in the state — which leads the country in annual car sales — be electric by 2035. https://redstate.com/wardclark/2023/10/24/chinese-scientists-discover-8-new-viruses-on-tropical-island-what-could-possibly-go-wrong-n2165509 Chinese Scientists Discover 8 New Viruses on Tropical Island - What Could Possibly Go Wrong? Chinese scientists working on tropical Hainan Island off China's southern coast have discovered eight new viruses in that island's rodent population, and have not ruled out the capability of those viruses to species-jump to humans. One of the viruses has been confirmed to have been a coronavirus; the COVID-19 virus was also a coronavirus, as are several of the viruses that can cause the syndrome we call "the common cold," although rhinoviruses are more common in those cases. Researchers tasked with preparing the world for future pandemic took almost 700 samples from rodents living in Hainan, just off China's southern coast. Eight novel viruses — including one belonging to the same family as Covid — were uncovered in the project, funded by the Chinese Government. Experts said the discovered pathogens had a 'high probability' of infecting humans should they ever cross the species barrier. As a result, they called for further experiments on the viruses to determine exactly what their effects on humans could be. Lots of people from lots of governments as well as academic institutions and private-sector organizations do these kinds of surveys, of course. That's how we learn about viruses, or about anything else in the natural world — by going out, taking samples, and examining things. But there's a different wrinkle in this case. The findings were shared in the journal Virologica Sinica, the publishing arm of the Chinese Society for Microbiology (CSM). CSM is linked to the state-affiliated China Association of Science and Technology, which 'accepts administrative supervision' from the Chinese Government's 'Ministry of Civil Affairs'. Virologica Sinica is also edited by Dr Shi Zhengli, an influential scientist described as China's 'bat woman' who works inside the Wuhan Institute of Virology – considered to be the source of the Covid pandemic in some corners. The journal's editorial board also features over a dozen other academics linked to the WIV. The last sentence of that article's conclusion might raise some concerns: The pathogenicity and associated impact of these novel viruses on humans and animals should be evaluated in further studies. This is, yes, the same Wuhan virology lab that set off alarms about their safety practices at the outbreak of the COVID-19 panic. (There, the Wuhan lab isn't alone.) This is also the same Wuhan virology lab where $2 million in U.S. taxpayer funds were used to conduct research, including gain-of-function research. If that doesn't set some alarm bells ringing, it's not at all clear what would. Coming as it does, hot on the heels of the impeccably coiffed Governor Newsom flying to the Middle Kingdom to stump for Chinese electric cars, and at a time when the American public is growing good and tired of the whole COVID scare, the timing of the discovery is interesting as well. Granted, these kinds of expeditions go on all the time, and granted as well that China doesn't have an unlimited pool of virologists out there looking for work.

Mike Johnson was elected by the House to become the next speaker as Republicans rallied behind their fourth nominee to replace former Speaker Kevin McCarthy. Johnson could afford only a handful of defections from his fellow Republicans in the chamber-wide vote, but unlike prior candidates, there were no defections to his candidacy from his party. He won 220 votes, needing around 217 to become speaker. Democrats meanwhile continued to vote for Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. He picked up 209 votes from his fellow Democrats. Johnson scored his party's nomination late Tuesday, with several members absent and three voting present. In just the hours from Tuesday, though, Johnson has shored up support from the three Republicans who voted present in Tuesday's late nomination vote. Johnson also got support from President Trump, who gave his support for the GOP nominee, urging Republicans to "get it done, fast" ahead of a potential House speaker vote. DNC says House GOP will 'have to answer' for electing 'MAGA' Mike Johnson as speaker The Democratic National Committee (DNC) took aim at newly-elected House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., Wednesday just before he won a House-wide vote to replace former Speaker Kevin McCarthy, R-Calif., saying Republicans would "have to answer" to voters in 2024 for supporting him. “Many Americans are waking up this morning wondering — who is Mike Johnson? We’re here to help: MAGA Republicans’ new speaker-designate supports extreme nationwide abortion bans," DNC National Press Secretary Sarafina Chitika said in a statement. "He led the charge for Donald Trump denying President Biden’s legitimate election win and tried to overthrow the votes of 81 million Americans. He’s a leading proponent of slashing Social Security and Medicare," she said. Chitika called Johnson a "carbon-copy" of "MAGA extremism," and predicted House Republicans would have to answer for supporting him when voters head to the polls in 2024.

Hello and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience. I'm your host Jordan Youkilis, and this episode serves as the outro to Episode 55, my interview with John Decker.In this episode, I start with my personal journey and how I went from admiring and voting for Hillary Clinton to accepting that I was dead wrong about this woman. We first highlight Clinton's collusion with the Democratic National Committee (“DNC”) in stonewalling Tulsi Gabbard's political career.Next, we dive into the early Clinton political years. We focus on how Bill and Hillary used their respective positions as Governor of Arkansas and Partner at Rose Law firm to facilitate cocaine smuggling and money laundering in the state.From there, we explore the sordid history of the CIA and organized crime, mind-control project MK-Ultra, and the intelligence agencies ties to human trafficking. We highlight the case study of hero and MK-Ultra survivor, Cathy O'Brien, and detail the dark junction of America's OSS with the Nazi SS at the end of World War II through Operation Paperclip.We then discuss the cabal's participation in blood ritual and their worship of the dark entity Baphomet. We also highlight the story of Satanist, psychological warfare expert, intelligence officer and child torturer Lt. Colonel Michael Aquino. From there, we cover the demonic entity Moloch and the cabal's depraved resort Bohemian Grove.We consider the WikiLeaks release of John Podesta's personal emails during the 2016 election. Episode 56, Part 1, ends as we highlight the importance of the Pizzagate scandal that resulted from the email leak, how it has never been debunked, and what it revealed about our political elites.In Episode 57, Part 2 we begin with the appearance of Satanic performance artist Marina Abramovic in the Podesta emails, her affinity for ‘spirit cooking', and the cabal's very real practices of cannibalism and adrenochrome harvesting.We then discuss the ‘snuff film' or ‘murder porn' industry, the existence of deep, underground military bases (“DUMBs”), and the notorious FRAZZLED.RIP. FRAZZLED.RIP is an alleged snuff film found on Anthony Weiner's laptop featuring Hillary Clinton and his ex-wife, Huma Abedin.Next, we consider allegations and supporting evidence that the Clinton crime family assassinates political opponents. We examine six suspicious deaths: those of (i) Vince Foster, (ii) John F. Kennedy, Jr., (iii) Seth Rich, (iv) Jeffrey Epstein, (v) Jean-Luc Brunel, and (vi) Mark Middleton.We dive into their money laundering apparatus, the Clinton Foundation, and focus on the destruction of Haiti caused by the Clintons. Our love, prayers and support are with the people of Haiti as we acknowledge and hold accountable the Deep State for the human rights atrocities that have taken place in their country.We end this essay with a reexamination of our election process, highlighting the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections as case studies. From there, we ask, ‘Who is the military-industrial complex?'

Hello and welcome to Entangled! The podcast where we explore the science of consciousness, the true nature of reality, and what it means to be a spiritual being having a human experience. I'm your host Jordan Youkilis, and this episode serves as Part 2 of the outro to Episode 55, my interview with John Decker. If you haven't already listened to Episodes 55 and 56, I'd recommend you start there.In Part 1, Episode 56, I started with my personal journey and how I went from admiring and voting for Hillary Clinton to accepting that I was dead wrong about this woman. We first highlight Clinton's collusion with the Democratic National Committee (“DNC”) in stonewalling Tulsi Gabbard's political career.Next, we dive into the early Clinton political years. We focus on how Bill and Hillary used their respective positions as Governor of Arkansas and Partner at Rose Law firm to facilitate cocaine smuggling and money laundering in the state.From there, we explore the sordid history of the CIA and organized crime, mind-control project MK-Ultra, and the intelligence agencies ties to human trafficking. We highlight the case study of hero and MK-Ultra survivor, Cathy O'Brien, and detail the dark junction of America's OSS with the Nazi SS at the end of World War II through Operation Paperclip.We then discuss the cabal's participation in blood ritual and their worship of the dark entity Baphomet. We also highlight the story of Satanist, psychological warfare expert, intelligence officer and child torturer Lt. Colonel Michael Aquino. From there, we cover the demonic entity Moloch and the cabal's depraved resort Bohemian Grove.We consider the WikiLeaks release of John Podesta's personal emails during the 2016 election. Episode 56, Part 1, ended as we highlight the importance of the Pizzagate scandal that resulted from the email leak, how it has never been debunked, and what it revealed about our political elites.In Episode 57, Part 2 we begin with the appearance of Satanic performance artist Marina Abramovic in the Podesta emails, her affinity for ‘spirit cooking', and the cabal's very real practices of cannibalism and adrenochrome harvesting.We then discuss the ‘snuff film' or ‘murder porn' industry, the existence of deep, underground military bases (“DUMBs”), and the notorious FRAZZLED.RIP. FRAZZLED.RIP is an alleged snuff film found on Anthony Weiner's laptop featuring Hillary Clinton and his ex-wife, Huma Abedin.Next, we consider allegations and supporting evidence that the Clinton crime family assassinates political opponents. We examine six suspicious deaths: those of (i) Vince Foster, (ii) John F. Kennedy, Jr., (iii) Seth Rich, (iv) Jeffrey Epstein, (v) Jean-Luc Brunel, and (vi) Mark Middleton.We dive into their money laundering apparatus, the Clinton Foundation, and focus on the destruction of Haiti caused by the Clintons. Our love, prayers and support are with the people of Haiti as we acknowledge and hold accountable the Deep State for the human rights atrocities that have taken place in their country.We end this essay with a reexamination of our election process, highlighting the 2016 and 2020 presidential elections as case studies. From there, we ask, ‘Who is the military-industrial complex?' The episode concludes with some thoughts on losing your heroes and on finding real ones. Ending music is a cover of Carl Klang's song, “It's Not Over Until We Win”.Outros available for this and all episodes at entangledpodcast.substack.com.

Visit storyrealestate.com. https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-kevin-mccarthy-removed-as-house-speaker?utm_campaign=64487 Kevin McCarthy REMOVED as House Speaker Members of the House of Representatives voted on Tuesday to oust Republican Speaker Kevin McCarthy. The final tally showed 216 in favor of the motion to vacate, while 210 were opposed. Though McCarthy is no longer third in line to the presidency, he will retain his seat. The House will now have to decide who, if anyone, has enough votes to take over as Speaker. Until then, Rep. Patrick McHenry (R-NC) will act as Speaker pro tempore. Earlier Tuesday, Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) stood and repeated his motion to vacate. Rep Tom Cole (R-OK) rose to offer to table that motion. The 15-minute vote saw 208 Republicans vote in favor of McCarthy's leadership, and 11 against. All Democrats were in favor of vacating. Following a 60-minute back and forth between those for and against vacating McCarthy's position, the final vote was taken. Gaetz was able to initiate proceedings on his own thanks to the inclusion of the Jeffersonian Motion in the deal made when McCarthy accepted the Speakership in January. Under the agreement, a single person was permitted to introduce a motion to remove McCarthy if he "goes back on his word or policy agenda." In the months since, McCarthy has been criticized by members of his own party for decisions regarding the appropriation of funds to Ukraine, among other things. He recently drew ire from Gaetz and his crew for teaming up with Democrats to pass a 45-day stopgap resolution to keep the government running, despite there not being a properly passed continuing resolution. "You don't know chaos until you've seen where this Congress and this uniparty is bringing us," the Florida Congressman said in response to suggestions from reporters that removing the Speaker would throw the House into disarray. Others, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY), disagreed with Gaetz, and indicated that they would support McCarthy. "I agree with you we need serious change," Greene said, "but there is no plan and no one capable even stepping up. Last time Freedom Caucus threw out a Speaker, we ended up with Paul Ryan who did not support President Trump’s agenda. Nothing can truly change until Trump is back in the WH." Prior to the vote, McCarthy admitted it was "likely" that he would be vacated, noting that if all Democrats sided against him, they would only need five Republican votes. https://dailycaller.com/2023/10/03/dnc-officials-minorities-representation/ DNC Officials Are Freaking Out Because They Can’t Get Enough Minorities To Represent Them High-ranking officials at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) are expressing significant worries that the committee is not meeting its self-established minority representation goals, Politico reported. Six present and former committee members are increasingly fretting about the lack of desired diversity among delegates selected to attend the 2023 DNC convention, according to Politico. At the same time, President Joe Biden’s campaign is hemorrhaging minority support, which is crucial for securing a second term. “I keep looking at these diversity goals in big states like New York, like California. And, for some reason, whether it’s the African American community, Black community, the LGBTQ+ community, or Hispanic community, [the] numbers continue to decrease,” political strategist and former chair of the DNC Donna Brazile stated at a recent committee meeting in Washington, D.C., according to Politico. “It raises a red flag in my judgment,” Brazile told Politico in an interview. “And then I try to find out what the hell is it.” Biden’s support among black, Latino and Asian voters plummeted from 63% in July to 47%, according to a Monmouth University poll published on Monday. The poll also found that Trump’s support from these demographics increased from 23% to 33% over the same period of time. The DNC employs a formula to determine delegate diversity figures, which is tailored for each state and considers factors like census data and Democrat-leaning status, according to Politico. “If African Americans are 10 percent of the population, they’re usually like 15-20 percent of the Democratic vote,” political scientist and DNC member Elaine Kamarck stated, according to Politico. “So that’s how the math starts to work for the affirmative action goals.” Biden won the 2020 presidential election with support from more than 70% of nonwhite voters, according to The New York Times. https://nypost.com/2023/10/03/disturbing-video-shows-moment-beloved-activist-poet-is-randomly-stabbed-to-death-in-front-of-girlfriend-on-nyc-street/ Disturbing video shows moment beloved activist, poet is randomly stabbed to death in front of girlfriend on NYC street Disturbing new video shows the moment an activist and poet was randomly stabbed to death in front of his girlfriend – who desperately tried to get help in the aftermath of the harrowing attack in Brooklyn. Ryan Carson, 32, and his girlfriend can be seen sitting on a bus stop bench in Bedford-Stuyvesant and speaking with his girlfriend as the two made their way home from a wedding on Long Island just before 4 a.m. on Monday, according to the surveillance footage. Wearing a gray suit, Carson and the young woman, dressed in a blue, sleeveless gown, get up and begin to walk down the block, in the same direction as a man in a dark colored sweatshirt who had just strolled past the pair at the B38 bus stop, with his hood up over his head and his hands in his pockets. Just feet ahead of them, the stranger begins kicking scooters parked near the curb for no apparent reason, the footage – obtained by The Post on Tuesday – shows. Suddenly, the unhinged man turns to Carson The community activist – who replied that he wasn’t looking at anything – then stepped between his girlfriend and the irate stranger, who began to advance on the couple. “I’ll kill you!” the maniac threatens as Carson pleads with him to “Chill! Chill!” and holds up his hand. But the attacker pursues Carson, pulling a knife, as the victim’s girlfriend – running up behind them – is heard frantically yelling “Please, please, please!” As he runs, Carson tumbles over the bench the couple had earlier been sitting on. The assailant then grabs his jacket and knocks him onto the ground, savagely stabbing him multiple times in the chest as the victim’s girlfriend catches up to them. He then walks away as Carson lies curled up on the ground, before returning and approaching the terrified woman, who raises her hand to stop him. The sicko spits on her – while still clutching the knife – before kicking Carson’s mortally wounded body and storming away. An unknown woman then appears near the corner of the frame, yelling, “Don’t hurt him!” at the crazed man and repeating what sounds like the name “Brian” or “Bryan.” Investigators believe that woman and the suspect knew each other prior to the slaying, police sources said Tuesday. “I’m so sorry!” the same woman exclaims as she approaches Carson, still lying on the sidewalk, as his worried girlfriend stands at his side. The video cuts off as the girlfriend kneels over her loved one’s body, gently moving his arm that had been hanging over his face. She held her gravely injured boyfriend in her arms before he was rushed to Kings County Hospital Center, but it was too late – as the stab wound had pierced his heart, according to cops and sources. The horrific attack happened at Lafayette Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard, just blocks from the Bedford-Nostrand avenues train station, where the couple had gotten off the subway on their way home from the wedding, cops said. No arrests had been made in the heinous crime by Tuesday afternoon, but a “Wanted” poster circulated showing a close-up of the suspect wearing a black “Champion” sweatshirt. Men, this is a somber reminder it’s always a good idea to carry a firearm to protect yourself and those you love. And finally… https://www.dailywire.com/news/chicago-airport-now-sheltering-hundreds-of-illegal-migrants-as-city-waits-on-tents Chicago Airport Now Sheltering Hundreds Of Illegal Migrants As City Waits On Tents Chicago is now sheltering hundreds of illegal migrants at O’Hare International Airport as the city waits for new shelters to be built. The hundreds of recent arrivals, including babies and the elderly, live in a shuttle bus center at the airport’s Terminal 1, where they sleep on cardboard and use airport bathrooms, the Associated Press reported. Up to 500 migrants have lived at O’Hare at the same time in the crowded area where privacy is a curtain closed with staples, although the migrants have spread out beyond the curtain, some sleeping along windows as travelers walk by. Medical care is limited, and germs reportedly spread quickly in the living area. A private firm watches the migrants and their activities. The haphazard shelter situation has raised concerns about public health as well as safety. “It was supposed to be a stop-and-go place,” said Vianney Marzullo, one of the few volunteers at O’Hare. “It’s very concerning. It is not just a safety matter, but a public health matter.” Some migrants are also living at Chicago’s other airport, Midway International Airport, about 20 miles south of O’Hare. Others are sleeping on the floors of police stations. Chicago has been scrambling to respond to a migrant crisis before the cold winter months arrive. The country’s third-largest city has experienced an influx of about 14,000 migrants recently, many from Venezuela, and has already spent at least $250 million on the issue. Last month, the city of Chicago signed a $29.4 million contract with a private security firm to build massive winterized camps for newly arrived illegal migrants. The firm will be responsible for building, staffing, and operating the huge tents, which must be able to house between 250 and 1,400 migrants. Chicago Democratic Mayor Brandon Johnson faced pushback last month when he asked all 50 city council members to find two acres in their wards for a large tent that could house 200 migrants. “I’ve looked in my ward. I just don’t have any available space. I have one of the most dense wards in the city,” Alderman Brian Hopkins, whose ward includes parts of downtown, said last month. In the meantime, Chicago leaders have been begging the federal government for help with the migrant crisis. “Let me state this clearly: the city of Chicago cannot go on welcoming new arrivals safely and capably without significant support and immigration policy changes,” Johnson said in late August. The federal government has already given Chicago and Illinois at least $8.5 million for the migrant crisis. Other major cities are battling a migrant problem as well. New York City is struggling to process about 113,000 migrants who have streamed into the city since last summer. New York also set up tent shelters for migrants last year but ran into issues, including flooding in one of those shelters. Other cities like Boston and Atlantic City, New Jersey, have rejected the idea of sheltering migrants in airports.

"You don't know chaos until you've seen where this Congress and this uniparty is bringing us," the Florida Congressman said in response to suggestions from reporters that removing the Speaker would throw the House into disarray. Others, including Reps. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) and Thomas Massie (R-KY), disagreed with Gaetz, and indicated that they would support McCarthy. "I agree with you we need serious change," Greene said, "but there is no plan and no one capable even stepping up. Last time Freedom Caucus threw out a Speaker, we ended up with Paul Ryan who did not support President Trump’s agenda. Nothing can truly change until Trump is back in the WH." Prior to the vote, McCarthy admitted it was "likely" that he would be vacated, noting that if all Democrats sided against him, they would only need five Republican votes. https://dailycaller.com/2023/10/03/dnc-officials-minorities-representation/ DNC Officials Are Freaking Out Because They Can’t Get Enough Minorities To Represent Them High-ranking officials at the Democratic National Committee (DNC) are expressing significant worries that the committee is not meeting its self-established minority representation goals, Politico reported. Six present and former committee members are increasingly fretting about the lack of desired diversity among delegates selected to attend the 2023 DNC convention, according to Politico. At the same time, President Joe Biden’s campaign is hemorrhaging minority support, which is crucial for securing a second term. “I keep looking at these diversity goals in big states like New York, like California. And, for some reason, whether it’s the African American community, Black community, the LGBTQ+ community, or Hispanic community, [the] numbers continue to decrease,” political strategist and former chair of the DNC Donna Brazile stated at a recent committee meeting in Washington, D.C., according to Politico. “It raises a red flag in my judgment,” Brazile told Politico in an interview. “And then I try to find out what the hell is it.” Biden’s support among black, Latino and Asian voters plummeted from 63% in July to 47%, according to a Monmouth University poll published on Monday. The poll also found that Trump’s support from these demographics increased from 23% to 33% over the same period of time. The DNC employs a formula to determine delegate diversity figures, which is tailored for each state and considers factors like census data and Democrat-leaning status, according to Politico. “If African Americans are 10 percent of the population, they’re usually like 15-20 percent of the Democratic vote,” political scientist and DNC member Elaine Kamarck stated, according to Politico. “So that’s how the math starts to work for the affirmative action goals.” Biden won the 2020 presidential election with support from more than 70% of nonwhite voters, according to The New York Times. https://nypost.com/2023/10/03/disturbing-video-shows-moment-beloved-activist-poet-is-randomly-stabbed-to-death-in-front-of-girlfriend-on-nyc-street/ Disturbing video shows moment beloved activist, poet is randomly stabbed to death in front of girlfriend on NYC street Disturbing new video shows the moment an activist and poet was randomly stabbed to death in front of his girlfriend – who desperately tried to get help in the aftermath of the harrowing attack in Brooklyn. Ryan Carson, 32, and his girlfriend can be seen sitting on a bus stop bench in Bedford-Stuyvesant and speaking with his girlfriend as the two made their way home from a wedding on Long Island just before 4 a.m. on Monday, according to the surveillance footage. Wearing a gray suit, Carson and the young woman, dressed in a blue, sleeveless gown, get up and begin to walk down the block, in the same direction as a man in a dark colored sweatshirt who had just strolled past the pair at the B38 bus stop, with his hood up over his head and his hands in his pockets. Just feet ahead of them, the stranger begins kicking scooters parked near the curb for no apparent reason, the footage – obtained by The Post on Tuesday – shows. Suddenly, the unhinged man turns to Carson The community activist – who replied that he wasn’t looking at anything – then stepped between his girlfriend and the irate stranger, who began to advance on the couple. “I’ll kill you!” the maniac threatens as Carson pleads with him to “Chill! Chill!” and holds up his hand. But the attacker pursues Carson, pulling a knife, as the victim’s girlfriend – running up behind them – is heard frantically yelling “Please, please, please!” As he runs, Carson tumbles over the bench the couple had earlier been sitting on. The assailant then grabs his jacket and knocks him onto the ground, savagely stabbing him multiple times in the chest as the victim’s girlfriend catches up to them. He then walks away as Carson lies curled up on the ground, before returning and approaching the terrified woman, who raises her hand to stop him. The sicko spits on her – while still clutching the knife – before kicking Carson’s mortally wounded body and storming away. An unknown woman then appears near the corner of the frame, yelling, “Don’t hurt him!” at the crazed man and repeating what sounds like the name “Brian” or “Bryan.” Investigators believe that woman and the suspect knew each other prior to the slaying, police sources said Tuesday. “I’m so sorry!” the same woman exclaims as she approaches Carson, still lying on the sidewalk, as his worried girlfriend stands at his side. The video cuts off as the girlfriend kneels over her loved one’s body, gently moving his arm that had been hanging over his face. She held her gravely injured boyfriend in her arms before he was rushed to Kings County Hospital Center, but it was too late – as the stab wound had pierced his heart, according to cops and sources. The horrific attack happened at Lafayette Avenue and Malcolm X Boulevard, just blocks from the Bedford-Nostrand avenues train station, where the couple had gotten off the subway on their way home from the wedding, cops said. No arrests had been made in the heinous crime by Tuesday afternoon, but a “Wanted” poster circulated showing a close-up of the suspect wearing a black “Champion” sweatshirt. Men, this is a somber reminder it’s always a good idea to carry a firearm to protect yourself and those you love. And finally… https://www.dailywire.com/news/chicago-airport-now-sheltering-hundreds-of-illegal-migrants-as-city-waits-on-tents Chicago Airport Now Sheltering Hundreds Of Illegal Migrants As City Waits On Tents Chicago is now sheltering hundreds of illegal migrants at O’Hare International Airport as the city waits for new shelters to be built. The hundreds of recent arrivals, including babies and the elderly, live in a shuttle bus center at the airport’s Terminal 1, where they sleep on cardboard and use airport bathrooms, the Associated Press reported. Up to 500 migrants have lived at O’Hare at the same time in the crowded area where privacy is a curtain closed with staples, although the migrants have spread out beyond the curtain, some sleeping along windows as travelers walk by. Medical care is limited, and germs reportedly spread quickly in the living area. A private firm watches the migrants and their activities. The haphazard shelter situation has raised concerns about public health as well as safety. “It was supposed to be a stop-and-go place,” said Vianney Marzullo, one of the few volunteers at O’Hare. “It’s very concerning. It is not just a safety matter, but a public health matter.” Some migrants are also living at Chicago’s other airport, Midway International Airport, about 20 miles south of O’Hare. Others are sleeping on the floors of police stations. Chicago has been scrambling to respond to a migrant crisis before the cold winter months arrive. The country’s third-largest city has experienced an influx of about 14,000 migrants recently, many from Venezuela, and has already spent at least $250 million on the issue. Last month, the city of Chicago signed a $29.4 million contract with a private security firm to build massive winterized camps for newly arrived illegal migrants. The firm will be responsible for building, staffing, and operating the huge tents, which must be able to house between 250 and 1,400 migrants. Chicago Democratic Mayor Brandon Johnson faced pushback last month when he asked all 50 city council members to find two acres in their wards for a large tent that could house 200 migrants. “I’ve looked in my ward. I just don’t have any available space. I have one of the most dense wards in the city,” Alderman Brian Hopkins, whose ward includes parts of downtown, said last month. In the meantime, Chicago leaders have been begging the federal government for help with the migrant crisis. “Let me state this clearly: the city of Chicago cannot go on welcoming new arrivals safely and capably without significant support and immigration policy changes,” Johnson said in late August. The federal government has already given Chicago and Illinois at least $8.5 million for the migrant crisis. Other major cities are battling a migrant problem as well. New York City is struggling to process about 113,000 migrants who have streamed into the city since last summer. New York also set up tent shelters for migrants last year but ran into issues, including flooding in one of those shelters. Other cities like Boston and Atlantic City, New Jersey, have rejected the idea of sheltering migrants in airports.

Watergate scandal, interlocking political scandals of the administration of U.S. Pres. Richard M. Nixon that were revealed following the arrest of five burglars at Democratic National Committee (DNC) headquarters in the Watergate office-apartment-hotel complex in Washington, D.C., on June 17, 1972. On August 9, 1974, facing likely impeachment for his role in covering up the scandal, Nixon became the only U.S. president to resign. Perlstein, R. (2023, June 28).

Another mass shooting with an AR-15 armed shooter brings more thoughts and prayers from NRA-owned politicians … and that's about all. In Washington. While Republicans in the U.S. House focus on protecting kids from drag queens and classic books … instead of protecting them from being shot in their classrooms … Michigan's Legislature continues to do just the opposite. Gun safety is the latest issue to move from campaign promises all the way to the Governor's desk. Also enacted in this hyper-active legislative session: returning union rights to workers and civil rights for all Michiganders regardless of sexual identity or orientation. Joining the discussion this week is Democratic Party pollster Celinda Lake with insights on how Democrats can leverage the MAGA takeover of the Republican Party and reclaim the allegiance of Midwest blue-collar voters. Celinda is one of the Democratic Party's leading political strategists. She was one of two lead pollsters for the Biden campaign in 2020 and continues to serve as a pollster to the Democratic National Committee (DNC), other national party committees, and dozens of Democratic incumbents and challengers at all levels of the electoral process. Celinda and her firm, Lake Research Partners, are known for cutting-edge research on issues including the economy, health care, the environment, and education. Celinda, a native of Montana—born and raised on a ranch—and one of the political world's most avid whitewater rafters, holds a master's degree in Political Science and Survey Research from the University of Michigan and her undergraduate degree from Smith College in Massachusetts, where she graduated Summa Cum Laude. She is co-author of a must-read book on political strategy, “A Question of Respect.” Celinda teamed up with Republican pollster Ed Goeas to provide a political resource and a compelling case for how the nation reached a moment of massive political divisions, where it needs to go, and what it will take to get there. She also led research on behalf of American Family Values of how the Democrats' brand in the Midwest is damaged in blue-collar counties. The report concludes that “Democrats have their best opportunity to make progress in these counties in a generation.” =========================== This week's podcast is underwritten in part by EPIC-MRAEPIC ▪ MRA is a full service survey research firm with expertise in: • Public Opinion Surveys • Market Research Studies • Live Telephone Surveys • On-Line and Automated Surveys • Focus Group Research • Bond Proposals - Millage Campaigns • Political Campaigns & Consulting • Ballot Proposals - Issue Advocacy Research • Community - Media Relations • Issue - Image Management • Database Development & List Management =========================== Links to Stories We're Following This Week Democratic Report Explores Blue-Collar Struggles: ‘Our Brand Is Pretty Damaged' - The New York Times A Question of Respect Path to the Majority: Expanding the Map - Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee Opinion | The GOP gains among ‘voters of color' are overhyped - Perry Bacon/The Washington Post Democratic Report Explores Blue-Collar Struggles: ‘Our Brand Is Pretty Damaged' - The New York Times Path to the Majority: Expanding the Map - Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee Opinion | The GOP gains among ‘voters of color' are overhyped - Perry Bacon/The Washington Post Benson won't run for U.S. Senate in Michigan in 2024 - Detroit News Legislature's three-month sprint reflects sea change in Michigan politics - Detroit News Michigan 1st state in decades to repeal 'right-to-work' law - AP News New Laws Enacted so far in 2023 - Legislative Service Bureau Michigan GOP shoots itself in foot linking gun control to Holocaust - Detroit Free Press Michigan GOP slammed for comparing gun reform to Holocaust - AP News Michigan is passing gun safety laws.

Twitter's new owner released "The Twitter Files" on Friday evening, documenting how the social media company suppressed the legitimate and accurate NY Post story about Hunter Biden's laptop, just ahead of the 2020 election. Constitutional law professor Jonathan Turley: “Handled.” That one word, responding to a 2020 demand to censor a list of Twitter users, speaks volumes about the thousands of documents released by Twitter's new owner, Elon Musk, on Friday night. As many of us have long suspected, there were back channels between Twitter and the Biden 2020 presidential campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) to ban critics or remove negative stories. Those seeking to discuss the scandal were simply “handled,” and nothing else had to be said. Ultimately, the New York Post was suspended from Twitter for reporting on the Hunter Biden laptop scandal. Twitter even blocked users from sharing the Post's story by using a tool designed for child pornography. Even Trump White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany was suspended for linking to the scandal. FOX News reports that more is coming. Billionaire Elon Musk says "more smoking guns" are on the way after Friday's release of Twitter's internal communications regarding the alleged censoring of the New York Post's Hunter Biden laptop story. Musk made the announcement during a Saturday Q&A session on Twitter Spaces. Journalist Matt Taibbi published numerous internal Twitter documents showing how top executives handled censorship decisions surrounding the 2020 election.    Get exclusive content here!: https://thepetekalinershow.com/See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Former Barack Obama Communications Director and Pod Save America host Dan Pfeiffer is joined by Mellissa Murray, Professor of Law at New York University and co-host of the Crooked Media podcast Strict Scrutiny. In this episode Dan and Melissa analyze a viral ad from Mothers Against Greg Abbott (MAGA), Republican Katie Britt (Alabama), and the Democratic National Committee (DNC).

FBI Assistant Special Agent in Charge Timothy Thibault, a name previously unknown to most SpyGate sleuths, was recently brought to the public's attention through some astonishing revelations from Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa). Politically motivated activism by Thibault included the shutting down of an investigation into Hunter Biden in October 2020. Thibault did so by labeling information relating to Hunter as false information—even though many of the details were known to be accurate at the time. Grassley said that Thibault's Democratic National Committee (DNC) partisanship had “impacted his official decision-making on sensitive public corruption investigations” and had “likely affected investigations briefed to, and approved by, senior Justice Department and FBI officials.” But there was another new piece of information within Grassley's disclosures that's been bothering us of late: Thibault's association and interaction with Bruce and Nellie Ohr in Prague. Grassley disclosed that Thibault, “while overseeing and directing the FBI's most significant federal public corruption investigations, traveled to the Czech Republic to attend the same seminar with Bruce and Nellie Ohr in late February 2016.” As we shall see, that trip to Prague was more integrated and potentially much more significant than Grassley's letter has indicated. Grassley rightly observed that, at the time of the trip, Nellie Ohr was employed by Fusion GPS, working to fabricate anti-Trump propaganda for use by the Hillary Clinton campaign and DNC, and she was also involved in the fake Alfa-Bank narrative. Her husband Bruce Ohr, a senior DOJ official, was instrumental in pushing the Steele dossier, along with information from Glenn Simpson, into the FBI, and he maintained close contact with Steele until November 2017. Of particular note is the fact that in the days that followed the February 2016 Czech conference, the FBI's New York field office suddenly requested permission to open an investigation into Carter Page. ⭕️Watch in-depth videos based on Truth & Tradition at Epoch TV

Members of the Hillary Clinton 2016 presidential campaign have been issued trial subpoenas from special counsel John Durham—along with subpoenas for the Democratic National Committee (DNC), Fusion GPS, and Perkins Coie. As the case unfolds into how Democrat officials paid for and spread disinformation against Trump to influence the 2016 election, questions are growing on how much was done unaware, and how much was intentional. Meanwhile, Disney's stocks have fallen more than 31 percent after it got into conflict with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over his Parental Rights in Education bill, which bans the instruction of sexual orientation or gender identity to children from kindergarten to third grade and requires age-appropriate content on sexual issues. To discuss the fallout Disney has faced, we've invited special guest Stephen Soukup, author of “The Dictatorship of Woke Capital: How Political Correctness Captured Big Business.” And in other news, Elon Musk's bid to purchase Twitter for $44 billion has been approved, and the billionaire Tesla CEO is pleading to open the platform to free speech. As this happens, however, the European Union is passing new laws to regulate online content, under the banner of fighting what it deems as disinformation and propaganda. In this live Q&A with Crossroads host Joshua Philipp, we'll discuss these stories and others, and answer questions from the audience. ⭕️ Stay up-to-date with Josh with the Crossroads NEWSLETTER

Dan Backer, President and General Counsel for the Coolidge-Reagan Foundation, discusses the filing of the original complaint that led to the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Clinton campaign having to pay fines to the Federal Election Committee for concealing payments that they used to fund the Christopher Steele Dossier. The counselor reacts that it is rare these days to get any action or penalties from the Federal Election Commission, that finally there is a “semblance of accountability, and probably the first fine that the Clintons are ever actually paying”. Backer goes on to say that this goes beyond political “dirty tricks” that this is “actual Russian collusion”, that the DNC and Clinton campaign “colluded with the Russian government, and they did it knowingly, and they hid it from the public.”See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On Wednesday, Hillary Clinton and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) were fined by the Federal Elections Commission. Specifically, six years after the actual race, the Federal Elections Commission has issued a fine against Hillary Clinton's 2016 presidential campaign as well as the DNC for violating federal law and not accurately describing the payments that they made to a law firm—which then funneled the money to an ex-British spy. Meanwhile, while I was in Florida about two weeks ago, I had the unique opportunity to sit down and speak with Jeffrey Lord, who was a former member of the Reagan administration, and we discussed the new changing global world order—and what American's place in it can look like. ⭕️ Sign up for our NEWSLETTER and stay in touch

In a massive development, the Federal Election Commission (FEC) has announced the Hillary Clinton campaign and the Democratic National Committee (DNC) will be fined $113,000 dollars for falsely claiming that they were paying legal bills to the Clinton campaign law firm while actually funding opposition research of Donald Trump — the proven to be phony, Steele Dossier. Jay, Jordan, and the rest of the Sekulow team provide the latest details and give their expert analysis. This and more today on Sekulow.

[00:30] Legacy Media Finally Reports on Hunter's Crimes (25 minutes)For 17 months, the legacy media dismissed the Hunter Biden laptop story as fake news and Russian disinformation in an attempt to cover up the crimes Hunter and his father were committing with Ukrainian and Chinese corporations. As Fox News host Bret Baier put it yesterday, this story is “something [the legacy media] couldn't touch in October of 2020.” Such a story would have exposed the Biden crime family and likely changed the outcome of the 2020 election. [25:25] Hillary Clinton Fined by the FEC (4 minutes)Yesterday, the Federal Election Commission fined the Democratic National Committee (DNC) and Hillary Clinton for lying about the funding of the Steele Dossier. The DNC and Hillary Clinton gave Perkins Coie over $1 million for “legal services.” The law firm then used that money to gin up wild conspiracy theories about Donald Trump. [29:30] Prophetic Words About Ukraine (10 minutes)Tomorrow's news today. In 2014, the Trumpet stood alone in its forecast that Russian aggression against Ukraine would accelerate the formation of a newly reunited Europe led by a rearmed and militarized Germany. This is now happening like a flash of lightning. [39:00] Bible Study: Beware the Leaven of the Pharisees (15 minutes)Jesus Christ often warned His disciples to beware the “leaven of the Pharisees.” The hypocritical Pharisees would often speak about the law, but they would not keep it. God requires that we not only receive His commandments but go on to keep and do His commandments as well.
