Trembling, Bleeding Spokeswoman Issues Statement Denying That Doug Emhoff Would Ever Hit Anyone [...] "These accusations are absolutely ridiculous," the spokeswoman said as blood trickled from a scrape under her left eye. "Mr. Emhoff would never, ever do such a despicable thing as to strike anyone — much less a woman. The woman who was allegedly slapped by Mr. Emhoff simply fell down some stairs… just like I did right before coming out here to speak with you all today."

All Charges Dropped After Diddy Claims He's Just A Knucklehead NEW YORK, NY — All charges of sex trafficking and racketeering against rapper and business mogul Sean "P. Diddy" Combs were formally dropped Thursday after he admitted he was just a knucklehead. "Look, I can be a bit of a knucklehead at times," Diddy said as he addressed the court. "What can I say? Ope!" He continued, "So look, my commitment has been from the beginning, to make sure that I'm there for people, to make sure that I get this right. I will say more than anything, many times, I will talk a lot. I will get caught up in the rhetoric. But being there, the impact it made, the difference it made in my life. I learned a lot from sex trafficking. It made me who I am today." [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/all-charges-dropped-after-diddy-claims-hes-just-a-knucklehead

This confirms that PMSNBC, for one, is firmly in Kommie's grasp. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Whistleblower Reveals Left-Wing Networks Are 'Rigged' for Kamala An MSNBC producer just blew the lid off the liberal media's plan to get Vice President Kamala Harris elected, and it's every bit as shady as you'd think. Undercover conservative journalist James O'Keefe released a video of MSNBC producer Basel Hamdan admitting that the network is "doing all they can" to elect Harris by making viewers "dumber over the years." Hamdan, a writer and producer for the network's show "Ayman," was asked by an undercover journalist what MSNBC is doing to help Harris win the race. Speaking into a hidden camera and microphone, he said that [...] https://townhall.com/tipsheet/saraharnold/2024/10/04/whistleblower-reveals-left-wing-networks-are-rigged-for-kamala-n2645745

Elon Musk to Join Trump Campaign Rally in Butler, Pa. on Saturday: Unbowed, Unbroken, and Unrepentant Earlier on Friday, Green Party presidential candidate Jill Stein officially accused the Democratic National Committee of spying, infiltrating their organization, lawfare, and other dirty tricks. And Friday afternoon, none other than Tesla CEO Elon Musk pledged to join the upcoming Trump campaign rally in Butler, Pa. — the same place where Donald Trump nearly lost his life after being struck by an assassin's bullet — over the upcoming weekend. It's noteworthy that Stein and Musk — who, arguably, represent the two most high-profile environmental movements in the country (politically and commercially) — have come together in agreement that the Democratic Party is their common enemy.

A brief and very well-expressed article. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~ US union members and leaders are not always on the same political page The saying goes, "don't ask the question if you don't want to know the answer". US labour leaders have taken that advice to heart, largely declining to poll their membership on what political positions their unions should take. The problem is that, for many of them, their own progressive instincts are often woefully disconnected from the views of their members.

FEMA Reports They Spent All The Taxpayer Funding On A Sweet PowerPoint Presentation About Racial Equity ASHEVILLE, NC — Official sources within the Federal Emergency Management Agency were disappointed to inform victims of Hurricane Helene that the government agency was unable to offer them any taxpayer funding, as it had spent it all on a PowerPoint presentation about racial equity. According to FEMA spokesperson Gayle Kane, the agency would have loved to help out North Carolina residents affected by the storm but was simply unable to do so as it had blown the remainder of its budget having an intern with purple hair put together the presentation.

Tim Walz Polling Strong Among Men Who Choose Middle Urinal U.S. — With little over a month left before election day, results of a new national survey showed Minnesota Governor Tim Walz polling strongly among men who choose to use the middle urinal in men's rooms. The new poll, conducted in the days following Walz's debate with Senator J.D. Vance, showed a steady increase in support for Walz among guys who are often classified as ambiguous creepy and prone to making other men uncomfortable. "He's running away with that demographic," said Professor Blake Rumsey, a political analyst and [...] https://babylonbee.com/news/tim-walz-polling-strong-among-men-who-choose-middle-urinal

~~~~~~~~~~~~ Ayatollah Frantically Googles 'How To Build Iron Dome Thingy FAST' TEHRAN — After watching his missile bombardment of Israel fail to yield the results he had hoped for, Iranian Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei frantically googled "how to build iron dome thingy FAST." Israel's much-publicized "Iron Dome" missile defense system was placed under tremendous strain during Iran's attack but was able to prevent mass casualties despite a barrage of well over 100 ballistic missiles. "Okay, so we didn't wipe out the Jews and now they're going to retaliate," Khamenei reportedly told high-ranking members of the Iranian government. "But don't worry, I have a plan."

North Carolina Asks Zelensky For $100 Billion In U.S. Funding RALEIGH, NC — With civilians working hard to rescue their neighbors along the path of devastation left behind by Hurricane Helene and FEMA revealing a lack of available money, the state of North Carolina asked Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky for $100 Billion in U.S. funding. Though President Biden approved North Carolina's request for federal disaster relief, uncertainty about the timetable for receiving funds amid various obstacles and bureaucratic red tape, the state's officials decided to go directly to the man with more U.S. taxpayer dollars than anyone else.

Debate revealed Tim Walz to be a fraud 'everyman' — and a lightweight If Donald Trump wins this election, the postmortems on Kamala Harris' campaign should put her choice of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz as her running mate at the top of her list of mistakes. Much of America got to know Walz for the first time during Tuesday's vice-presidential debate. Unlike his appearance at the Democratic National Convention, the Walz we saw on the debate stage didn't have his words written for him in a teleprompter. And the unfiltered version underscored a very obvious fact about the governor: He is patently fake. [...] https://nypost.com/2024/10/02/opinion/debate-revealed-tim-walz-to-be-a-fraud-everyman/

This is shocking but not surprising. My own assumption is confirmed by this quote from the article: "Psychologists told her they suspected the abundance of social media apps like TikTok and YouTube have overtaken recreational reading." Their noses are buried in their phones. I can't pry Mini-Bone's phone away from him for a second. Fortunately, Mini-B.'s public skool does require the reading of entire books. I just ordered two.

Harris Supporters Trying To Figure Out How To Convert Joy Into Groceries [...] While the Harris-Walz campaign continued to trumpet its mantra that it was ushering in a national movement of "joy," voters in favor of Harris's election were searching for the proper method of conversion that would allow them to use excess joy to provide for the basic necessities of life like food, clothing, housing, and gas. "Can anyone tell us what the current joy-to-groceries exchange rate is?" asked Stephanie Dean, a Kamala Harris supporter from Denver, Colorado. "I get that Kamala is all about spreading the joy — and I'm totally in favor of it — but I'm starting to kind of wonder if spreading all this joy will eventually make it cheaper to buy food for my family.
