LOL: No One Is Buying Hillary Clinton’s Book.

Hillary Clinton has released a new memoir titled Something Lost, Something Gained: Lessons on Life, Love, and Liberty, her second book focused on her electoral loss to former President Donald J. Trump. According to industry sources, the memoir sold 27,000 copies in its first week of release, a major crash from her 2017 memoir, What Happened, which sold 167,000 copies in its opening week.

Clinton emphasizes her supposedly historical achievements as “the first woman to win a presidential primary, the nomination of a major party, and the national popular vote” in her new work and brags about occasions when she “flew on Air Force One” and “dined with kings and queens.”

However, the reception of Clinton’s latest publication has been less than enthusiastic. It managed less than 20 percent of the initial sales of her 2017 memoir.

The former First Lady is continuing to intervene in the political discourse ahead of the 2024 election, in which Trump is once again running against a woman. In September, she defended her description of Trump’s 2016 supporters as “deplorable,” saying it was “bad politics” but “got at an important truth,” alleging that Trump voters are “drawn to his racism, sexism, homophobia, xenophobia, Islamophobia—you name it.”

Clinton even doubled down on her past remarks, saying, “[I]f anything, ‘deplorable’ is too kind a word for the hate and violent extremism we’ve seen from some Trump supporters.”

She has also been calling for Americans to be “criminally charged” for repeating so-called Russian propaganda “boosting Trump.”

Afghan Terror Plotter Worked for CIA.

An Afghan charged with plotting an Election Day terror attack after being imported to the U.S. following the Biden-Harris government’s botched withdrawal from Afghanistan previously worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA). Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi, 27, worked in a security role for the CIA in his native country. According to the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), Tawhedi passed a “multilayered screening and vetting” process, including checks against intelligence, law enforcement, and counterterrorism databases, before being paroled into the U.S.

Biden-Harris officials claim Tawhedi became radicalized just weeks after his arrival on September 9, 2021. However, they are incentivized to claim his radicalization occurred after he entered the U.S., or they would be implicated in failing to detect his terroristic intentions before importing him.

Tawhedi entered the country under “humanitarian parole” after the Biden-Harris government fast-tracked the entry of tens of thousands of Afghan migrants. DHS initially claimed he arrived on a Special Immigrant Visa (SIV), but the State Department pushed back, saying that Tawhedi came in under humanitarian parole and applied for an SIV on arrival.

Tawhedi, based in Oklahoma, allegedly planned to target large gatherings on Election Day and was prepared to die as a “martyr” along with his juvenile brother-in-law, who was brought to the U.S. through another immigration program.

Biden-Harris Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has remained silent on the case, avoiding questions about failures in the vetting process for Afghans. Regardless, the incident raises serious concerns about how many other potential threats may be inside the U.S. due to the Democrats’ lax immigration policies.

Hundreds of would-be illegal immigrants apprehended at America’s borders have been discovered to have terrorism links. Surprisingly, more of these migrants are caught attempting to cross the northern border than the southern border.

Chinese Govt Auto Exec Donated to Harris After Biden Provided Subsidies.

An executive at an American subsidiary of a Chinese electric vehicle (EV) firm made significant donations to the election campaign for Joe Biden—and later Kamala Harris—after her company received financial backing from the U.S. government. Ke Li, president of BYD Americas, contributed $33,400 to what was originally the Biden Victory Fund, now renamed the Harris Victory Fund. Additionally, Li made two $3,300 donations to the Biden campaign, now the Harris campaign.

BYD Americas is one of the primary beneficiaries of the Inflation Reduction Act‘s electric vehicle tax credit, despite the Biden-Harris government’s insistence that the subsidy is meant to boost American EV production. In addition, Governor Gavin Newsom (D-CA) awarded BYD a nearly $1 billion no-bid contract for masks during the coronavirus pandemic despite the company’s lack of background in manufacturing protective equipment at the time. As shown by state records, Li contributed $50,000 to Newsom’s gubernatorial campaigns in 2018 and 2022.

A subsidiary of the Chinese-based and owned multinational BYD Company, BYD Americas doesn’t actually sell passenger cars in the United States. Instead, its primary Western markets include Latin America and Europe. The American subsidiary aims to open a new manufacturing plant in Mexico by 2026 that will produce 150,000 electric cars a year. Despite being subsidized by U.S. taxpayers, these cars will mostly be sold in Latin American markets and not in the U.S.

BYD Company is involved with China’s Belt and Road Initiative and receives subsidies from the Chinese government. Concerns over espionage led Congress to investigate BYD and other Chinese vehicle manufacturers earlier this year.

Pro-life Activist Heather Idoni Faces Continued Mistreatment in Custody.

A pro-life activist arrested and prosecuted for breaking pro-abortion laws by the Biden-Harris Justice Department is reportedly being mistreated by federal officials in prison. Heather Idoni is alleged to have been physically abused and kept in solitary confinement.

Heather Idoni was convicted of violating the Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act and conspiracy charges, devised to stop protests such as Christian prayer vigils near abortionists’ clinics. She has been in custody since August 2023, with trials held in Washington, D.C., and Nashville, Tennessee. Another trial is pending in Detroit, Michigan.

Calvin Zastrow, a co-defendant in the Nashville case, highlighted Idoni’s difficulties during her detention. Idoni has reportedly been transferred between federal prisons frequently and experienced mistreatment in transit.

According to Zastrow, a U.S. Marshal tightened a chain around her waist, making it hard for her to breathe. He alleges she was threatened with worse treatment if she complained.

Congressman Chris Smith, a member of the Pro-life Caucus, has worked with the U.S. Marshals following complaints regarding Idoni’s mistreatment.

Idoni’s health concerns, including diabetes and a past stroke, have been compounded by her experiences in custody, where she was denied necessary medications until congressional intervention.

Congressman Chip Roy has called for the repeal of the FACE Act, criticizing its use against pro-life protesters.

Since the Biden-Harris government took control of the U.S., 24 FACE Act cases have been filed against 55 defendants, nearly all aimed at pro-life activists, despite numerous attacks on churches and pregnancy centers.

Former President Donald J. Trump criticized the federal government’s actions, urging the release of detained pro-life activists.

The Biden-Harris regime has also gone after traditionalist Catholics, with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) deploying informants in Catholic parishes in parts of the country.

Judge Says Jack Smith’s Election Interference Can Continue.

U.S. District Court Judge Tayna Chutkan has rejected a motion filed by President Donald J. Trump’s legal team asking that the Biden-Harris Department of Justice’s (DOJ) special counsel, Jack Smith, refrain from publicizing additional documents outlining his lawfare case against the Republican nominee public before the election. The ruling follows the unsealing of Smith’s 165-page legal brief against Trump’s presidential immunity claim last week.

Specifically, Smith is seeking to file an appendix to the immunity brief, which includes grand jury transcripts. “Defendant has now filed an opposition objecting to unsealing any part of the Appendix. ECF No. 259. As in his previous filing, he identifies no specific substantive objections to particular proposed redactions,” Chutkan wrote in her order on Thursday.

The foreign-born, far-left judge added: “For the same reasons set forth in its decision with respect to the Motion, ECF No. 251, the court determines that the Government’s proposed redactions to the Appendix are appropriate, and that Defendant’s blanket objections to further unsealing are without merit. As the court has stated previously, ‘Defendant’s concern with the political consequences of these proceedings’ is not a cognizable legal prejudice.”

However, any public filings by Smith will be delayed for at least a week, as Chutkan did grant a seven-day stay on the decision, allowing Trump’s lawyers time to appeal her ruling if they choose.

The National Pulse previously reported that CNN’s senior legal analyst, Elie Honig, called Smith’s decision to file the 165-page immunity brief just a month before the November presidential election an “unprincipled, norm-breaking” attempt to “chip away at Trump’s electoral prospects.”

Kamala Harris Threatened to Weaponize DOJ Against Platforms That Don’t Censor Her Opponents.

Footage of Vice President Kamala Harris threatening to weaponize the Department of Justice (DOJ) against social media platforms failing to censor supposed “hate” and “misinformation” to her liking in 2019 is going viral. In a speech to the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) in Detroit, Michigan, while she was running for the Democrats’ 2020 presidential nomination, then-Senator Harris said she would “put the Department of Justice of the United States back in the business of justice.”

“We will double the Civil Rights Division, and direct law enforcement to counter this extremism,” Harris declared, vowing: “We will hold social media platforms accountable for the hate infiltrating their platforms, because they have a responsibility to help fight against this threat to our democracy. And if you profit off of hate, if you act as a megaphone for misinformation or cyber warfare, if you don’t police your platforms, we are going to hold you accountable as a community.”

Weaponizing the DOJ in this way would likely lead to a significant abridgment of Americans’ First Amendment rights, with “hate” being subjective and the authorities’ definition of “misinformation” previously including accurate information on Hunter Biden’s laptop and vaccine side effects.

Harris, presenting herself as a moderate for her snap 2024 presidential run, campaigned much further to the left during her run at the 2020 nomination, endorsing the decriminalization of unlawful border crossings and taxpayer-funded transgender surgeries for criminals and illegal aliens, for instance.

She pushed far-left policies as a state-level politician in California, sponsoring a handgun ban later overturned by the courts and arguing for the authorities to be able to enter lawful gun owners’ homes, among other authoritarian policies.

Harvard, Yale Stand Accused of Price-Fixing in Major Lawsuit.

A group of 40 top private universities in the United States, including Harvard, Cornell, Dartmouth, Brown, and Yale, faces a class-action lawsuit. The legal action, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of Illinois, alleges that these institutions conspired to overcharge students by factoring in the financial backgrounds of noncustodial parents when determining financial aid packages.

A Boston University student and a Cornell University alumnus filed the lawsuit, seeking $5 million in damages. It also demands that the schools discontinue the alleged scheme. The complainants argue that the schools’ methodology requires noncustodial parents’ financial details to be considered, even when they do not contribute to the applicant’s education costs. According to the lawsuit, this requirement has led to inflated tuition fees, allegedly raising the cost by approximately $6,200 compared to institutions not using the same financial aid criteria.

The lawsuit also names the College Board, a nonprofit organization that developed the financial aid methodology in question. Documents revealed an entanglement between the College Board and university officials, including individuals influential in both organizations. The College Board has responded, indicating it is reviewing the lawsuit and expressing confidence in its position.

Steve Berman, managing partner with Hagens Berman, the law firm representing the plaintiffs, stated that the alleged collusion disproportionately impacts applicants from divorced families. According to Berman, the scheme resulted in less financial aid than what would be available in an unmanipulated market.

New York University, also named in the suit, dismissed the allegations as unfounded and intends to challenge them vigorously. While some universities have refrained from commenting on the ongoing legal proceedings, others, including Brown, Dartmouth, Yale, Fordham, and the University of Pennsylvania, have not issued responses.

Kamala’s Campaign Hits $1 Billion Raised.

Vice President Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign has surpassed $1 billion in fundraising since its inception despite seemingly losing ground to President Donald J. Trump in several key swing states.

Fundraising began with a surge of donations following President Joe Biden’s announcement on July 21 that he was exiting the race. Harris’s campaign collected $81 million within a day, climbing to over $100 million by July 22.

In August, the campaign reported raising $361 million, escalating its fundraising total to over $615 million. September’s figures are yet to be disclosed. Official records of recent fundraising efforts are expected in mid-October.

In Pennsylvania, a pivotal state for both parties, Republican factions have invested approximately $222.5 million in presidential race advertisements.

Meanwhile, Democratic factions have spent slightly more, at $275.1 million. The Harris campaign intends to allocate further resources toward advertising and operational efforts, particularly in battleground states, over the approaching weeks.

The rapid pace of fundraising has given Harris’s campaign a financial edge over the Trump campaign, particularly evident in August, when Harris’s campaign raised $230 million more. As of now, the campaign holds over a $100 million advantage. The Trump campaign reported a September fundraising total of $160 million.

Despite the large amount of cash, the Harris campaign has been unable to move poll numbers substantially and meaningfully, and in recent days, Trump has been improving in many polls.

Betting markets, such as Betfair, Polymarket, and Bwin, now all put Trump ahead of Harris, with the betting average giving Trump a 52 percent chance of winning next month to 46.4 percent for Harris.

Swing state polling suggests that Trump could win at least 280 electoral college votes, more than enough to meet the 270 required to win the presidency.

Criminalization of Prayer at Home is Now Here.

Christian and pro-life groups are raising alarms over new abortion laws in Scotland, which could criminalize prayer even in private homes. The legislation, which took effect last month, establishes 200-meter (~656-feet) “safe access zones” around all abortion clinics, banning activities that supposedly “harass, alarm, or distress” abortionists and their patients—including silent prayer vigils.

Even people living within these zones now face the possibility of prosecution for actions people can see or hear from outside their homes. This means activities such as praying aloud or displaying religious symbols could potentially be treated as crimes.

The Scottish Government led by the left-separatist Scottish National Party (SNP)—roughly equivalent to a U.S. state government—confirmed through letters sent to residents in Edinburgh’s safe zones: “In general, the offenses apply in public places within the safe access zones. However, activities in a private place (such as a house) within the area between the protected premises and the boundary of a zone could be an offense if they can be seen or heard within the zone and are done intentionally or recklessly.”

Many Christians, for whom prayer is a personal and sacred act, now fear their private expressions of faith could be under threat from the new law. Michael Robinson, executive director of the Society for the Protection of Unborn Children, criticized the law as “sinister and Orwellian.” He stresses that the authorities could prosecute individuals for silently praying in their gardens or displaying Bible verses in their windows.

Andrea Williams, chief executive of Christian Concern, called the law “regressive” and an example of “state overreach,” vowing to monitor its enforcement across the country.

Similar laws are set to be imposed in England following multiple failed prosecutions of Christians praying silently inside their heads near abortionists’ clinics.

REPORT: AZ Senate Candidate’s Drug Trafficking Father Arrested for Punching Landlady.

Representative Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), the 2024 Democratic Party nominee for U.S. Senate in Arizona, is facing increasing scrutiny over his Mexican father’s criminal behavior, both past and present. Jose Angel Marinelarena was arrested on March 3, 2024, for battery after assaulting his landlady in Chicago, Illinois. Additionally, Gallego admitted last week that his father is a “convicted drug dealer.”

According to an arrest report obtained by investigative journalist Laura Loomer, Jose Angel Marinelarena punched Edyta Jagas twice in the face this past Spring after the woman confronted him over unpaid rent. Additionally, the 69-year-old Marinelarena, a Mexican immigrant, has a prior conviction for drug trafficking with alleged ties to the violent Juarez cartel in Mexico. Gallego claims that he has no relationship with his father.

Gallego’s Republican opponent, Kari Lake, has repeatedly blasted the Democratic Congressman for his support for the Biden-Harris government’s open borders policies. In addition, Lake has raised Marinelarena’s ties to the Mexican drug cartels, suggesting Gallego and his father’s relationship might not be as distant as the Congressman suggests.

“We need to be calling out what [Gallego] is about. I want to confront the cartels… I want to end the cartels,” Lake said at a news conference last Saturday. “He will never confront the cartels; he is controlled by them. He has close family members who are drug traffickers.”

Polling in the Arizona Senate election shows a tight race. The latest survey has Gallego narrowly leading with 50 percent of the vote to Lake’s 46 percent. Meanwhile, President Donald J. Trump has consistently led Vice President Kamala Harris in the state—raising concerns among Democrats that Trump’s coattails could be enough to secure a win for Lake as well.
