Hayley Williams, the lead vocalist of the decreasingly popular rock band Paramore, paused a performance on Friday at the iHeartRadio Music Festival in Las Vegas to voice false claims about President Donald J. Trump, claiming he plans to “punish” poor people and peddling the debunked Project 2025 trope about him and his campaign.
Williams, however, was caught on camera reading from a script being held up by someone in the front row as she delivered her screed of anti-Trump misinformation to a camera positioned just to the left of the script.
In the scripted remarks, Williams accused Trump of intending to harm women, people of color, and LGBTQ Americans without offering any evidence for her remarks.
WATCH:
Remember the video of Paramore’s Hayley Williams bashing Trump and spewing lies about “Project 2025” on stage?
Yeah, turns out she was reading a SCRIPT.
Who the hell gave it to her? Was she paid or blackmailed?

Pop star Janet Jackson recently questioned Vice President Kamala Harris’s self-proclaimed racial identity, stating in an interview that Harris is not black. Speaking to The Guardian, Jackson responded to queries about the possibility of the United States electing its first black female president. “She’s not black, that’s what I heard, that she’s Indian,” Jackson remarked. She claimed she was informed that Harris’s father is white. “I mean, I haven’t watched the news in a few days,” she added.
When asked whether she believed the nation was ready for a female president of color, Jackson expressed uncertainty. “Honestly, I don’t want to answer that because I really truthfully don’t know,” she said. “I think either way it goes is going to be mayhem.”
Her comments echo similar sentiments expressed by former President Donald Trump at the National Association of Black Journalists convention in July. Trump had asserted that Harris originally emphasized her Indian heritage at the start of her career but now identifies as black. “She was always of Indian heritage, and she was only promoting Indian heritage,” Trump stated. “I didn’t know she was black until a number of years ago when she happened to turn black, and now she wants to be known as black.”
Trump continued, “I respect either one, but she obviously doesn’t because she was Indian all the way, and then all of a sudden, she made a turn, and she went — she became a black person.”
Vice President Harris is the daughter of Donald J. Harris, a Jamaican-American professor at Stanford, and her mother, who is of Indian descent. Harris has faced scrutiny from some individuals who allege she identifies with different aspects of her ancestry depending on the circumstance. Recently, critics claimed she adopted a regional accent while speaking in Detroit, which then seemed to fade at a subsequent event in Pittsburgh the same day.

Brexit leader Nigel Farage MP will speak at the New York Young Republican Club (NYYRC) annual gala in Manhattan on December 15th, 2024, joining honored speaker Stephen K. Bannon and Master of Ceremonies Raheem Kassam.
‘Mr. Brexit’ was originally billed to join last year at Cipriani on Wall Street, but was waylaid by a major, weeks-long reality TV appearance in the United Kingdom. This year, Farage jointly headlines one of the most widely attended and anticipated events of the Republican political calendar.
Last year’s event saw around one thousand people pack into Cipriani to hear from President Donald J. Trump, Rep. Matt Gaetz, Senator Roger Marshall, and others.
A statement from the club reads:
The NYYRC is excited to announce the next speaker at our 112th Annual Gala—a great friend of President Trump and leader of the Brexit movement, Nigel Farage MP.
Mr. Farage has fought for his country’s independence from Brussels since the early ’90s, leading the UK Independence Party (UKIP) to numerous election victories and serving as a Member of the European Parliament in Brussels since 1999.
Following his world-changing European referendum win in 2016, Farage established the Brexit Party, now known as Reform UK, with a view to Making Britain Great Again.
Farage attended Dulwich College, is a popular personality in global media, a keen fisherman, a father of four, and even has his own line of gin!

Prolific music producer and recording artist Pharrell Williams is expressing annoyance with celebrities endorsing political candidates. His comments follow pop star Taylor Swift‘s Instagram post backing Kamala Harris’ presidential bid.
“There are celebrities that I respect who have opinions, but not all of them. I’m one of those people who says, ‘What the heck? Shut up. Nobody asked you,'” Williams told The Hollywood Reporter in response to a question regarding whether he allows presidential candidates to utilize his music on the campaign trail. He continued: “When people get self-righteous, roll up their sleeves, and start marching around with placards: ‘Shut up!'”
The 13-time Grammy Award winner added: “I prefer to stay out of the way, though I will vote according to my views. I care deeply about my people and the country, but I see a lot of work that needs to occur, and I’m all about action.”
Numerous music recording artists are demanding that former President Donald J. Trump‘s campaign cease using their songs during events. While some artists may have legal recourse in instances where the use of a song is not properly authorized through the license holder, the demand a politician cease playing their music is often merely performative.
Musician Jack White, formerly of The White Stripes, is currently pursuing legal action against former President Trump’s campaign after a video montage featuring their song ‘Seven Nation Army’ was posted online by Margo Martin, Trump’s deputy director of communications. White filed a copyright infringement lawsuit, accusing the campaign of “flagrant misappropriation” of the song. The lawsuit was registered last week in the Southern District of New York.

Tucker Carlson is dropping Zyn nicotine pouches and launching his own brand, citing its manufacturer’s financial ties to Democratic candidate Kamala Harris. Staff at Zyn’s parent company, Philip Morris International, have donated at least $18,200 to Harris and $100,000 to the Democratic Lieutenant Governor’s Association in 2024, alongside thousands of smaller donations to individual Democratic candidates.
“I’m going through a period of transition in my life with nicotine patches. I’ve used a certain brand; I’m embarrassed to say it, it’s made by a huge company, huge donors to Kamala Harris,” Carlson said, distancing himself from a brand he has passively promoted for years.
“I’m not going to use that brand anymore. I mean, I think it’s fine… for your girlfriend or whatever, but I don’t think men should use that brand. It starts with a ‘Z,'” he joked.
Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, imposed a 95 percent tax on nicotine products, including Zyn, in May, making the support for the Democratic ticket at Philip Morris somewhat counterintuitive.
Carlson is launching his own brand of nicotine pouches, Alp. He says, “It’s a much better option, trust me.”
The former Fox News host is a strong nicotine advocate, insisting it is not a proven carcinogen and raises testosterone.

Editor’s Notes
Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Kamala Harris describes her Indian grandfather, P.V. Gopalan, as a progressive “independence fighter” against British rule, which ended shortly after the conclusion of the Second World War. Her claims are sparking angry recriminations in India, however, as he was actually a “diligent civil servant” who worked for the British Imperial Secretariat Service.
Harris has downplayed her Indianheritage in recent years, instead emphasizing the black identity she inherited from her father, a Jamaican Marxist of mixed African and European descent. Still, she shared a picture of herself in India for National Grandparents Day on Sunday, posing with her grandfather, whom she described as “a retired civil servant who had been part of the movement to win India’s independence.”
She has previously described Gopalan, a Tamil from the elite Brahmin caste, as “one of the original independence fighters in India.” The Indian pressreports that the records suggest otherwise, with Harris’s grandfather working diligently for the British imperial regime. “Gopalan’s son, Kamala Harris’s uncle G. Balachandran, said that had his father openly advocated ending British rule, he could have been fired,” notes The Times of India.
Indian socialmedia users were blunter, describing Harris’s account of her grandfather as “unadulterated BS. ”
“Kamala Harris’ grandfather, P.V. Gopalan was in British Imperial Secretariat Service in the 1930s, a role off-limits to anyone tied to the struggle against British rule,” wrote one, adding: “If anything, he aided colonial exploitation by serving the imperial bureaucracy.”
Harris’s Jamaican heritage is similarly murky, including not only Africans but also Hamilton Brown, a notorious 19th-century slaveowner who campaigned against abolition.
Agmark unadulterated BS.

Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield, co-founders of Ben & Jerry’s ice cream, have teamed up with the far-left advocacy group MoveOn.org to launch a new ice cream flavor called “Kamala’s Coconut Jubilee.”
The name comes from Harris’s bizarre story about how her mother needed to remind her, as a child, that she was not born by falling out of a coconut tree.
This “special edition” coconut-flavored ice cream with caramel swirls and red, white, and blue sprinkles is part of a voter engagement effort ahead of the 2024 presidential election.
The campaign will feature a “Scoop the Vote” ice cream truck tour targeting key battleground states, including Michigan, Wisconsin, Arizona, and Nevada, in an effort to boost voter registration and turnout for Vice President Kamala Harris.
MoveOn’s executive director Rahna Epting emphasized that engaging non-voters through unconventional methods like free ice cream is crucial to securing a Harris victory against Donald Trump.
Ben Cohen, who is releasing the ice cream under his “Ben’s Best” label, said the goal is to return “common decency” to the White House by supporting Harris. Harris had an affair with married Mayor Willie Brown to get her start in politics before moving on to date Montel Williams in a failed bid to become a celebrity socialite.

Taylor Swift’s Instagram endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris following the debate on Tuesday night resulted in over 337,826 visitors to Vote.gov, according to a spokesman from the U.S. General Services Administration.
Swift told her followers to visit Vote.gov for registration and early voting information.
“I will be casting my vote for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz in the 2024 Presidential Election,” she announced, emphasizing early voting.
By 2 PM on Wednesday, Swift’s custom URL drove a significant amount of traffic to the Vote.gov website, though it is unclear how many of those visitors registered.
This marks the second time Swift’s social media engagement has boosted visitor numbers on the voting information site. An NPR report in 2023 noted a 1,226 percent increase in website traffic following a similar call to action by Swift.
Meanwhile, grassroots activists such as Scott Pressler and his Early Vote Action group have been busily registering voters for years without celebrity endorsement or fanfare.

Singer Taylor Swift publicly endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential bid on Tuesday night in a pre-written statement posted to her Instagram account and leaked early to the corporate media. The endorsement followed the debate with former President Donald Trump. Swift described Harris as a “steady-handed, gifted leader” in her post in which she referred to herself as a “childless cat lady” before locking the comments section down.
“I’m voting for @kamalaharris because she fights for the rights and causes I believe need a warrior to champion them,” Swift wrote, praising Harris for her leadership qualities and commending Walz’s advocacy for LGBTQ+ rights and mass abortion.
Swift continued, emphasizing the importance of voter registration and early voting, particularly addressing first-time voters.
At 34, Swift has become increasingly vocal about her political views, a shift that began with the release of her documentary “Miss Americana.” The film showcased her decision to speak out against Sen. Marsha Blackburn during the 2018 midterm elections. Blackburn won her Senate race in a humiliating failure for Swift.
Earlier on Tuesday, War Room host Stephen K. Bannon had issued a public warning about Swift’s impending endorsement of Harris, in a statement made from his jail cell at Danbury Prison in Connecticut. He remains a political prisoner of the Biden-Harris regime, and is due to be released on October 31 2024.

Behind-the-scenes political intrigue exclusively for Pulse+ subscribers.
Singer Elton John recently praised former President Donald J. Trump’s ‘Little Rocket Man’ nickname for North Korean dictator Kim Jong-un, calling it “brilliant.” The 77-year-old, responsible for the hit song Rocket Man, told Variety: “I laughed, I thought it was brilliant. Good on you, Donald. The Rocket Man, yeah.” He said that Trump has attended several of his concerts, describing their relationship as friendly.
Trump coined the nickname in 2017 in reference to Kim’s ballistic missile tests and nuclear program. In 2018, Trump disclosed plans to gift Kim an Elton John album featuring the song Rocket Man. Former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo detailed in his 2022 memoir, Never Give an Inch, that Trump had to explain the nickname’s significance to Kim, who was unfamiliar with John’s music. Trump, who achieved a significant thawing in U.S.-North Korean relations following his initial tough stance, reportedly autographed an Elton John CD for Kim.

John has conducted shows at the late conservative firebrand Rush Limbaugh’s wedding, and Trump’s wedding to Melania Trump. “I’ve always been friendly towards [Trump], and I thank him for his support,” John said, adding: “I just thought it was hilarious.”
