Kamala Finally Speaks To The Media
Vice President Kamala Harris spoke to reporters for the first time since
becoming the presumptive Democratic presidential nominee nearly three weeks ago.

Harris-Walz Campaign Works Overtime To Hide Walz's Phony Military Credentials
The Harris-Walz presidential campaign has updated Tim Walz's online biography,
removing a reference to him as a "retired command sergeant major."
The change comes amid Republican scrutiny of Walz's military credentials in
the Army National Guard.
Walz served as a command sergeant major but allegedly retired as a master
sergeant in 2005 because he hadn't completed the coursework required for the
higher rank.
This issue has been raised in previous campaigns, including Walz's 2018 race
for governor of Minnesota.
The campaign's website now states that Walz "served as a command sergeant
major" instead of describing him as retired at that rank.

Kamala’s Midwest Gambit Faces Uphill Battle with Blue-Collar Voters
Vice President Kamala Harris has chosen Minnesota Governor Tim Walz as her
running mate for the 2024 presidential campaign.
The campaign is emphasizing Walz's midwestern, veteran, and working-class
background to appeal to middle-American voters.
Political strategists suggest that despite the campaign's efforts, Walz's
policies on immigration, abortion, and climate change may not resonate with
working-class voters in the Midwest.
Walz's handling of the 2020 riots in Minneapolis and his support for
progressive policies may also be a point of contention for some voters.
Some strategists argue that while Walz may not be seen as an "elite," his
background might not fully connect with the working class as the campaign hopes.

Nancy Pelosi Confirmed She Helped Lead The Charge To Force Biden Out Of The
Election
Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi expressed her long-standing dissatisfaction
with President Joe Biden's campaign operation in an interview with The New
Yorker.
Pelosi stated she was concerned about Biden's chances of winning in November
and felt that a decision needed to be made for a better campaign.
She played a role in pushing Biden to leave the ticket, citing dire polling
results from June and July.
Pelosi described her actions as a "political legacy rescue mission" for a
president she deeply admired, even at the cost of their personal relationship.
The former speaker hopes to maintain her friendship with Biden despite her
involvement in his decision to drop out of the race and endorse Vice President
Kamala Harris.

Dems Chase Green Dreams With Empty Wallets As Biden's $85M Heat Pump Gamble
Flops
The Biden administration is providing nearly $85 million in grants to four
producers of electric heat pumps, despite falling consumer demand.
U.S. shipments of heat pumps dropped 16 percent in 2023, even after the
federal tax credit was increased from $300 to $2,000.
Heat pumps are significantly more expensive to install than traditional
furnaces, costing an average of $10,750 compared to $4,700 for a new furnace.
The administration is using the Defense Production Act and the Inflation
Reduction Act to fund these projects, framing it as a response to climate
change.
This funding is part of a larger push by the Biden administration to promote
green appliances and energy efficiency, including new regulations on washers,
dryers, and gas stoves.
Critics argue that these initiatives are costly to consumers and may not be
economically viable, given the current energy market trends.

Digital Ad Group Leading Charge On Conservative Censorship Dissolves After
Being Sued By X And Rumble
The Global Alliance for Responsible Media (GARM), an influential advertising
coalition, announced its dissolution amid lawsuits from social media companies
X and Rumble.
The lawsuits accuse GARM of colluding with advertising agencies to censor
conservatives and withhold monetization from "disfavored platforms."
A House Judiciary Committee report released in July alleged that GARM and its
members organized boycotts and used tactics to target certain platforms and
content creators.
GARM's guidelines labeled "debated sensitive social issues" and "hate speech"
as content inappropriate for advertising support, and reportedly blacklisted
conservative media companies.
X's lawsuit claims GARM members illegally colluded to withhold billions in
advertising revenue, while Rumble's suit alleges GARM established arbitrary
standards to perpetrate an advertiser boycott.
The dissolution of GARM is seen as a victory for free speech advocates and
those opposing the alleged censorship of conservative voices online.

Special Counsel Says Hunter Biden Received More Than $3 Million To Influence
Policy On Behalf Of Romania
Special Counsel David Weiss stated in a court filing that Hunter Biden
accepted over $3 million from a Romanian partner to "influence U.S. government
agencies" during Joe Biden's vice presidency.
Weiss intends to introduce evidence at trial related to Hunter's dealings with
CEFC China Energy Co. and Burisma Holdings, claiming Hunter did little work in
exchange for millions received.
The filing comes after a previously negotiated plea deal for Hunter Biden fell
apart, leading to separate gun and tax charges being filed.
Hunter Biden now faces a total of 42 years in federal prison for nine tax and
three gun-related convictions, with trials scheduled for September and November.

Two Teenagers Were Planning An ISIS-Inspired Terrorist Attack On Taylor
Swift’s Vienna Concert
Two ISIS-inspired teenagers, aged 19 and 17, were arrested in Austria for
plotting a terror attack on Taylor Swift's concert in Vienna.
The main suspect, identified as 19-year-old Beran A., planned to drive a car
into the crowd, attack with knives, and detonate a suicide bomb.
Neighbors described Beran A. as a formerly "harmless boy next door" who had
recently changed his appearance and behavior after becoming radicalized.
The suspects had stolen chemicals to manufacture explosives and were preparing
for the attack when they were apprehended by authorities.
As a result of the foiled plot, Taylor Swift's three scheduled concerts in
Vienna were canceled due to security concerns.

What’s Next
Will Vice President Kamala Harris actually debate former President Donald
Trump?
Trump said he’s committed to three September debates and, as of yesterday,
Kamala agreed to participate.
Polling currently suggests that the race for the Oval Office is neck and neck.
Kamala has, generally, been able to avoid the media since announcing her
candidacy, but can this last?
The media will obviously run cover for her and whitewash any gaffes she makes
at debates and campaign events, but in a race this close, will the people
accept that?
Nothing should be taken for granted in politics. Considering her disastrous
tenure as vice president, Kamala should be frantic to get in front of cameras
and clarify how she would run things differently than her current boss.
The American people are owed that. Those who seek to rule us must justify why
they deserve power.
Kamala must debate Trump. Flaking is unacceptable.
Video of the Day
England’s prosecutorial administration is warning people that they could be
criminally charged for hate speech.
