The Latest


Democrat Lawmaker Indicted in Alleged Sex Tape Blackmail Scheme


Sexual blackmail is shockingly common in politics. You wouldn’t believe how
many well-known public figures are compromised by bedroom videos. It would blow
your mind. This story serves as a reminder.

A federal grand jury has charged a Maryland state senator with extortion and
conspiracy, accusing her of deploying a hidden camera to record a former
political consultant’s adulterous rendezvous and using the footage to coerce
the victim into never criticizing her campaign. Senator Dalya Attar’s henchman
hid the cameras in smoke detectors to film a 2020 sexual encounter between the
consultant and a married man, according to the indictment.

The saga began in 2018, when the salacious advisor began working for Attar.
The relationship quickly soured, prompting a feud that apparently led the pair
down this dark and perverse path. We can’t help but wonder what the consultant
knows about the politician that makes silencing herso important. Read more

Black Lives Matter Is Under Investigation


Federal prosecutors are reportedly investigating whether senior Black Lives
Matter leaders defrauded donors during the George Floyd protests.

The group saw a surge of over $90 million in donations as rioters torched
America’s cities in 2020, and investigators suspect its top figures of
improperly managing the funds. In 2022, BLM foundation leaders confirmed the
use of donor money to buy a sprawling $6 million property in Los Angeles, which
included a six-bedroom, six-bathroom home.

The foundation’s latest public federal tax filings show it had $28 million in
assets as of the end of June 2024, and Indiana’s attorney general sued the
group in 2022 for failing to comply with a state investigation into its
finances.

The 2020 riots caused over $1 billion in damages. The scope of the DOJ’s probe
is unknown.Read more

11 Months After the Election, Kamala Still Shills for Biden


It’s been over nine months since Kamala Harris was Joe Biden’s vice president.
Why is she still spreading his propaganda?

Harris brought her interviewer’s jaw to the floor on Thursday by insisting
the confused former commander in chief was “fully competent” to remain in power
until age 86, mind-bogglingly claiming “he had the stamina to govern.”

We won’t use this newsletter to debunk Kamala’s crazy claim. Videos from
throughout Biden's term clearly showed his brain is as cooked as a well-done
steak. So why is she still playing this game? Her old boss is a relic of the
past, and it’s hard to imagine Democrat voters even slightly caring whether
potential 2028 candidates hurt his feelings. He’s irrelevant.

How come Kamala and Gavin Newsom
<[link removed]>
won’t just tell the truth? Do they really think Joe Biden’s approval is the
key to the nomination? He’ll probably be in a nursing home by the time the
primary rolls around. Why do they keep insulting the public by insisting he’s
as sharp as a tack?Read more

MASS EXODUS: Nearly 100,000 Young Men Flee Ukraine



Ukrainians are running for the hills.

Nearly 100,000 of the country’s fighting-age men have fled their homeland in
the past two months, according to Poland’s border guard. The mass exodus comes
after the Zelensky government eased regulations requiring its people to stay.
In 2022, martial law blocked Ukrainian men between 18 and 60 from leaving the
country. Now, they can travel abroad before turning 23.

Zelensky hopes that allowing the men to leave will motivate them to fight
upon returning. Considering the war has killed approximately 100,000 of the
nation’s troops, it’s easy to imagine many of the travelers not going back at
all.

Remember this story the next time Joe Biden's allies lecture you about how
America is helping Ukraine. This war, which is still going only because of U.S.
funding, is completely destroying the nation they claim they’re supporting.
There’s no better sign that a country is failing than its people being
desperate to leave. Ukraine needs peace, and America never should have
prevented it.Read more

Attempted Trump Assassin Really Wants to Die


Convicted would-be Trump assassin asked the judge presiding over his case to
move him to a state where assisted suicide is legal on Wednesday, once again
signaling that he wants to die. The move comes one month after he tried to stab
himself with a pen upon receiving his guilty verdict.

“I would like to plan forward for sentencing and request kindly to be placed
in a state that has assisted suicide since I am a constant failure,” Ryan
Routh, who serves as his own legal representation, wrote. “I have yet been
unable to obtain a list, but I hope someone can provide it.”

Assisted death is legal in 10 states and Washington, D.C. Routh’s sentencing
is scheduled for next month. He faces life behind bars after his conviction on
all five counts, including attempted assassination of a major presidential
candidate and possessing a firearm to carry out a violent crime.Read more

KIM KARDASHIAN: The Moon Landing Was Fake


Was the moon landing real? Kim Kardashian isn’t buying it.

The reality TV star planted her flag in the “conspiracy theory” camp during
Thursday’s episode ofThe Kardashians, plainly saying that “it didn’t happen.”

Why does she hold this belief? Is she a secret tin foil hat enthusiast? Not
at all. Kardashian cited anold video of Buzz Aldrin
<[link removed]> seemingly slipping up and
admitting to a live audience that the event “didn’t happen.”

“What was the scariest moment of the journey?” a student asked the astronaut
during a Q&A at Oxford.

“Scariest?” he replied. “It didn’t happen. It could have been scary.”

The event’s panelist quickly claimed Aldrin had heard the question incorrectly.

Commentary


Banish the Serpents



We love Donald Trump.

We campaigned for him last year, attended both of his inaugurations, and would
do it all again if given the chance. Plus, he’s hilarious. Maybe the country’s
best dinner party host. It’s really something else.

Those feelings are why this Economist/YouGov poll
<[link removed]>
bummed us out. It shows the president’s popularity in freefall, particularly
among young Americans. 75% of respondents under 30 expressed disapproval of his
job performance, compared to only 20% who saw things positively. That minus-55
net approval is a 63-point swing in the wrong direction since February. Figures
like those will make Republican political consultants tremble in their boots.
Even they may struggle to find a positive spin.

The good news is that this problem is fixable. We’re still less than a year
removed from Trump earning the strongest support from young voters for a
Republican candidate in nearly two decades. Flocks of new adults flooded the
polls for him last November, and there’s no reason to believe they wouldn’t
rally behind him again. He just has to focus on the issues that earned him
their support in the first place.

When people think of MAGA, they think of the president. There will always be
groups that remain for or against him solely based on his personality. But
that’s not most of the country, and it certainly isn’t young people. The
movement that ushered Trump back into the White House is about more than one
man. It’s about the ideas he represented and campaigned on 12 months ago.

America First. No new wars. Secure the border. Protect U.S. jobs. Freedom of
speech.

The tragedy of the Trump story is that both times he’s taken office, usurpers
in the GOP have engineered calculated efforts to steer his administrations away
from their campaign promises in favor of the traditional establishment
Republican agenda.That program is the precise opposite of what MAGA hat-wearing
voters want.

America First? These fake Republicans are totally against it. They’d rather
put Ukraine and Israel first, and the United States somewhere between 22nd and
39th, if we’re lucky.

Starting foreign conflicts that have nothing to do with our country? Are you
kidding? It’s not justwhat they live for; it’s all they live for. Have you
heard from Lindsey Graham lately? He’s fully committed to wars with Iran,
Venezuela, and probably any other non “ally” you could find on a map. And he’s
far from alone.

Secure the border? Neoliberals have no interest. A closed border means less
cheap labor, which makes their donorsvery upset. The same goes for protecting
our country's jobs. The less common-sense protectionism, the better for them.
It’s all about their treasured corporations’ bottom lines, American workers be
damned.

Then there’s freedom of speech. It would be nice if all Republicans aligned
on an issue as straightforward as this. But no. The Houserecently passed a bill
<[link removed]> mind-numbingly
equating criticism of a foreign government to prohibited discrimination and
harassment. There’s nothing more American than the freedom to critique your
rulers. Anyone who says the government should block citizens from expressing
hostile views aboutanother country’s leadership clearly has no regard for the
First Amendment.

The more the president listens to the forces subverting his agenda with the
views listed above, the further his numbers will slide. If he kicks them to the
curb and commits his White House to the roots of the MAGA program, he’ll exit
office as popular as when he entered. We hope he chooses the latter. It’s best
for him, his voters, and the country as a whole.

This Day in History


October 31, 1517: The beginning of the Protestant Reformation. Priest and
scholar Martin Luther nailed his 95 revolutionary opinions to the door of the
Castle Church in Wittenberg, Germany, publicly condemning the excesses and
corruption of the Roman Catholic Church. Chief among his complaints was the
papal practice of seeking payment for the forgiveness of sins. The people in
charge reacted hysterically to Luther’s writings, headlined by Pope Leo X
excommunicating him from the Catholic Church and Roman Emperor Charles V
declaring him an outlaw and a heretic and giving permission for anyone to kill
him without consequence. Luther’s beliefs went on to form the basis of the
Protestant Reformation, which revolutionized Western civilization over the next
three centuries.
