• GA special prosecutor admits to meeting with Biden team: Disgraced attorney Nathan Wade, who formerly served with the special prosecutor in Georgia’s election interference case against Donald Trump, recently admitted to congressional investigators that he met with Biden-Harris administration officials multiple times when he was on the case. Wade was removed from the case after his affair with Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis came to light. According to a Judiciary Committee investigator, Wade was asked, “If you billed eight hours for the interview with DC/White House, it’s safe to assume that you would have taken part in the interview?” He answered, “Yes, ma'am.” Wade also admitted to meeting with “lawyers” involved in the House J6 Committee. When asked about specific details from those meetings, Wade said he couldn’t recall. Nevertheless, Wade’s admission does establish the long-suspected involvement of the Biden-Harris administration in the lawfare actions against Trump.

• Make America Detroit Again? While Detroit’s worst days might be behind it, the once-great American city is still a sad shell of its former self. Since the last Republican mayor left office in 1962, crime and corruption have gutted the city, leaving swaths of it an abandoned and derelict urban ghetto. Detroit’s current population is a third of what it was back in 1950. All of which is why Donald Trump warned that Kamala Harris would make America “like Detroit.” But leave it to Harris’s messaging genius, Lizzo, to proudly offer Detroit as a vision for Harris’s America. “I’m so proud to be from Detroit,” Lizzo said during a recent campaign event in The Motor City. “They say if Kamala Harris wins, the whole country will be like Detroit. Proud like Detroit. Resilient like Detroit. The same Detroit that innovated the auto industry and the music industry. Put some respect on Detroit’s name.” Yikes. It’s a safe bet that the vast majority of voters don’t want America to resemble the single-party Democrat disaster of Detroit.

• Harris says “genocide” by Israel is real: During a campaign stop at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee, an anti-Israel protester questioned Kamala Harris about Israel’s war against Hamas and Hezbollah. Harris answered, “I know what you’re speaking of. I want a ceasefire. I want the hostage deal done. I want the war to end.” The protester continued to press, “But what about the genocide? What about the genocide, though?” Harris tried to move on, but the protester continued to raise the question of genocide and was eventually escorted away. At that point, Harris said, “Listen, what he’s talking about, it’s real. That’s not the subject that I came to discuss today, but it’s real, and I respect his voice.” Was Harris actually agreeing with the false and repeatedly debunked claim that Israel is engaged in genocide?

• Millionaire Walz leaves mom on Social Security: In an effort to criticize Donald Trump for supposedly not supporting Social Security, Tim Walz claimed that his own mother depends on a check from Social Security to feed herself. One would think that a man whose net worth is over $1 million would ensure that his 90-year-old mother was fully taken care of, including that she has plenty of food to sustain herself, irrespective of Social Security. He certainly has the means to, and on top of that, she’s family. If you’re unwilling to take care of your own family out of your personal wealth, then what business do you have running for public office? This, in a nutshell, is the problem with Democrats: They seek to make people dependent on government rather than ensuring that people and families have the freedom and means to care for themselves and their own. Government welfare should only and always be a last resort for people in need, not the first and expected support for all people’s needs.

• Another NYC Trump defamation suit: Seeing the success of E. Jean Carroll’s dubious defamation case against Donald Trump, members of the “Central Park Five” have filed a lawsuit against Trump alleging that he purposefully misrepresented the rape case that was raised against them. Back in 1989, these five teenagers were convicted of assault and rape. Their conviction was vacated in 2002. During his debate with Kamala Harris, Trump referenced the Central Park Five, claiming that they had pleaded guilty and had killed someone. However, after initially confessing to the crime, all five individuals recanted and claimed police coercion, and they never pleaded guilty. Furthermore, the victim, while beaten severely, did not die. No physical evidence tied them to the crime, and years later, a convicted criminal serving a life sentence confessed, and his DNA matched the evidence. Their success against Trump remains to be seen.

• Budget deficit dwarfs tax revenue surge: So much for Joe Biden’s boast of cutting the deficit in half. This year, for the first time in U.S. history without any pandemic spending to blame, federal government deficit spending hit almost $1.9 trillion. Notably, for the first time in our nation’s history, the U.S. Treasury paid more than $1 trillion in federal debt interest alone. To make matters worse, this massive government overspending comes in the midst of a surge in tax revenue totaling a record $4.9 trillion in FY2024, which is 11% higher than last year. There is simply no excuse for this out-of-control spending. And yet, despite the massive growth in tax revenue, Kamala Harris wants to raise taxes even higher. Is there a greedier institution than the federal government?

• Trump visits North Carolina offering encouragement: On Monday, Donald Trump visited areas of North Carolina that were devastated by flooding from Hurricane Helene. He complimented the hard work of first responders and promised to provide more aid. He praised the American Spirit of people coming together to help each other out. “All of America shares your sorrow and your grief over the past few weeks,” he said. “This region has seen an extraordinary hardship. But in the midst of such terrible tragedy, we have also seen the extraordinary love that binds us together as Americans.” He added, “Nothing is more inspiring than to see the American spirit triumph over adversity with the most selfless acts of generosity and love.” A former Green Beret who used his helicopter to rescue folks in North Carolina praised Trump for coming, saying, “To have you here, to have an opportunity to have this conversation on a national level, will keep western North Carolina on the map, and not leave the communities holding the bag on the back end of this.” Trump has thus far helped to raise some $8 million in aid for storm victims.
