Biden Blows $25M Pro-Abortion Election Ads.

President Joe Biden’s re-election campaign is set to launch a new digital ad campaign targeting former President Donald Trump and other Republican presidential candidates for their so-called “hardline” abortion stances. The ad buy comes as Biden’s poll numbers have declined, with voters becoming increasingly concerned about his age and lagging enthusiasm amongst Democrats.

The ad blasts Trump for appointing three U.S. Supreme Court justices who voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, as well as Florida Governor Ron DeSantis for signing into law a six week abortion ban. It will run on television and YouTube in three states that recently enacted strong pro-life laws – Florida, South Dakota, and Iowa – as part of a larger $25 million media blitz.

The Biden campaign aims to make abortion access central its reelection pitch, hoping to drive a wedge between pro-life Republicans and less socially conservative moderate voters. The Trump campaign has been cautious when discussing abortion on the campaign trail, with some polls showing Republican support for strict abortion bans being partially to blame for the lackluster 2022 midterm results.

Former President Trump has stated he believes the Supreme Court was correct to over-turn Roe v. Wade, leaving state governments to decide how to regulate abortion. On the question of federal legislation banning abortion access, Trump has said there needs to be a conversation among Americans and that any legislation would be the result of negotiations between those on both sides of the issue. The former President has also said he believes Republicans should support exceptions in cases of rape, incest, and when the life of the mother is in danger.

DeSantis’s Own Pollster Shows Trump INCREASING Margin in Iowa.

Ron DeSantis is trailing Donald Trump by over 20 points in Iowa, according to a poll published by the George Soros and DeSantis-linked Public Opinion Strategies (POS) firm. The new data puts the former president 23 points clear of the Florida Governor on 45 percent, with DeSantis dragging behind on 22.

Trump, according to the numbers, is up four points while DeSantis has only gained one. Nikki Haley is the only one candidate with any significant movement, having lost five points.

POS suggests Trump’s “floor” of voters who are considering only him for the nomination has gone down in recent weeks, from 26 percent to 22 percent, though this is well within their 400-person survey’s admitted 4.9 percent margin of error.

Ron DeSantis is believed to be “apoplectic” with his own hiring of Axiom strategist Jeff Roe, with insiders describing further chaos inside his campaign and its associated ‘Never Back Down’ PAC. In denying a new report of the matter in the Washington Post, DeSantis comms chief Andrew Romeo said they are, in fact, “thrilled” with their failing campaign.

Fauci’s NIH Used CCP-Owned Messaging App.

U.S. government employees at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and National Institute for Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) communicated about official government business using WeChat – the Chinese Communist-run social media and instant messaging app. The revelation from emails obtained by the House Select Subcommittee on the Coronavirus Pandemic raises concerns that Chinese intelligence may have had access to sensitive U.S. government communications.

Rep. Brad Wenstrup (R-Ohio), who chairs the select subcommittee, has given the NIH until September 21st to hand over a tranche of documents and emails from NIH contractors and employees – including Anthony Fauci – so that it can be determine to what extent the government health agency was compromised by the use of WeChat.

Emails made public by the select subcommittee appears to show a senior NIH official instruct another agency employee to use WeChat to communicate with a Chinese scientist during the early days of the COVID-19 pandemic. Whether Fauci used WeChat himself or knew of its use by agency employees is of particular concern to Wenstrup, who called the matter a “national security threat.”

WeChat is owned by the CCP tech giant Tencent Holdings Ltd. In 2020 the U.S. Central Intelligence Agency determined Tencent was backed financially by the Chinese government’s Ministry of State Security. Former President Donald Trump issued executive orders banning WeChat and the Chinese social media app TikTok in the United States, however a preliminary injunction issued by the U.S.District Court for the Northern District of California prevented the bans from taking effect. After assuming office, President Joe Biden abandoned Trump’s efforts to ban the Chinese apps.

‘I Regurgitated the Party Line’ – Cardiologist Regrets Pushing Vax After ‘Undeniable’ Rise in Heart Conditions.

Famed cardiologist Dr. Anish Koka has expressed his regret at “regurgitating the party line” on mRNA vaccines being “safe and effective” for young people, vowing he would never behave the same way in a similar situation.

Koka, a cardiologist with degrees from Penn State and Temple University trained at Jefferson Health, said he “certainly saw an increase” in heart conditions at his Philadelphia clinic after mRNA vaccines were rolled out en masse, “…like many of us in the cardiology community did.”

“It’s undeniable,” he stressed.

Koka was especially regretful about his personal role in propagandizing for the vaccines: “Me running around saying it’s ‘safe and effective,’ and giving it to 17-year-olds, given that most of the patients that were in the vaccine studies weren’t 17-years-old — I wasn’t technically correct.”

“I wasn’t correct at all in saying it was safe and effective because there weren’t enough people in that group to say that,” he lamented, emphasizing that he “would not give it to low-risk people again. That was a mistake on my part.”

Koka is particularly concerned by a Thai study that found an alarming number of cardiac injuries among minor teens given the Pfizer vaccine, particularly as the Moderna vaccine “has been shown to have myocarditis rates 3-4x Pfizer.”

“This study tells you if you roll this vaccine out to millions and millions and of 13 to 18-year-olds, you’re going to have a significant number of clinical myocarditis cases,” he warned.

“This is a very cardioactive vaccine.”

Cheese BANNED on London’s ‘Tube’… Yes, Really.

Transport for London (TfL), responsible for travel across Britain’s capital city, has banned cheese from being advertised on the London Underground, arguing that it is too “unhealthy” to be displayed to Londoners and tourists.

TfL argued that showing cheese does not fall within the rules of its advertisement policies and removed the adverts featuring a truckle last month. The transport network has banned foods that are considered “high in fat, sugar, and salt” since 2019 in an effort to address childhood obesity.

Edward Hancock, whose products were featured in the advert, called the decision “crazy,” as TfL permits sodas, ultra-processed foods, and even alcohol to be advertised on the Underground or “Tube” network.

“It’s because the government tried to simplify advice for people. But the problem is when you oversimplify it to such an extent… you get this issue with products that are actually proven to be very good for you,” Hancock stated.

Cheese is not alone in being banned by TfL. White people are also proscribed, having been made unable to apply for internships reserved instead for ethnic minorities.

Ex Trump Advisor Peter Navarro Found Guilty of Contempt of Congress.

Former Trump White House trade adviser Peter Navarro was found guilty of two counts of contempt of Congress by a Washington, D.C. jury on Thursday, having failed to comply with a partisan subpoena issued by House Democrats as part of their sham investigation of the January 6th protests. Each count carries a minimum of 30 days and a maximum of one year in prison, as well as a maximum fine of $100,000.

“I have been stripped, stripped of virtually every defense by the court and yet there is some defense left and the reality here is the government has not proved his case,” Navarro told the press outside the D.C. federal courthouse prior to the jury reaching a verdict on Thursday.

“Please understand that the Biden-weaponized Department of Justice is the biggest law firm in the world. That’s what I’m fighting against.”

Navarro’s legal team argued that federal prosecutors could not conclusively show that he willfully refused to comply with the congressional subpoena. In his closing remarks Stanley Woodward, Navarro’s attorney, told jurors: “The government provided no evidence about that. Do we know that his failure to comply beyond a reasonable doubt was not the result of inadvertence, accident, or mistake?”

The Select Committee on the January 6 Attack was formed in July of 2021 when Democrats held the majority in the House of Representatives. Congressional Democrats turned the committee into an elaborate and partisan show-trial against former President Donald Trump – going so far as to hire a ‘producer’ to ensure the committee’s televised hearings had the maximum political impact. The committee was dissolved in January of this year after Republicans assumed control of the House following the 2022 mid-term elections, though GOP representatives have done little to reverse the damage done by former Speaker Pelosi’s partisan operation.

Ex French Prez Sarkozy Says ‘Great Replacement’ Isn’t ‘Far-Right Idea’.

Former French President Nicolas Sarkozy has defended those in his country who wish to preserve their unique cultural, linguistic, and ethnic identity, telling the political talkshow “C à vous” that ‘the great replacement theory’ – which argues that mass migration is an intentional attempt at demographic shift – is “not a far right idea.”

While Sarkozy says he disagrees with the contention itself, he defended it from being labelled “extremist,” and criticized the French political elite who argue that populist politician Éric Zemmour or Marine Le Pen’s National Rally political party are not a part of the Republic’s political mainstream.

“I do not understand this stupid argument that the [National Rally] does not belong to the Republican Arc,” Sarkozy said, before adding that Zemmour also belongs to the mainstream Republican political right.

National Rally has achieved a degree of political success in France. The party’s advocacy for non-interventionist foreign policy, cuts to legal immigration, stricter controls on illegal immigration, trade protectionism, and anti-crime measures has drawn significant support among the French electorate – resulting in its presidential candidates reaching the second round of the 2002, 2017, and 2022 presidential elections .

Founded by Jean-Marie Le Pen in 1972 as the National Front with the purpose of unifying the French nationalist movement – the National Rally is currently the largest opposition party in France’s National Assembly.

DeSantis Dings Trump Over Fauci, But His Own Team Called for the ‘Doc’ to Get A Presidential Medal!

A public employee in the office of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis is criticizing former President Donald Trump for awarding Dr. Anthony Fauci a Presidential Commendation during the COVID-19 pandemic. Jeremy Redfern, who serves as the press secretary for DeSantis, posted on X (formerly Twitter): “Apparently, someone on Truth Social is talking about tweets from April 2020. But hey, at least I didn’t give Fauci a medal in January 2021.”

The National Pulse’s editor-in-chief Raheem Kassam was quick to point out that Redfern himself was one of the first people to publicly call for Dr. Fauci to receive an award for his work during the pandemic – asking Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-Tx.) on April 8, 2020 if the Congressman could encourage then President Trump to give Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx the Presidential Medal of Freedom.

DeSantis, once an ardent supporter of pandemic lockdowns and COVID-19 vaccines made available through Operation Warp Speed, has attempted to portray himself as one of Dr. Fauci’s biggest critics in an effort to boost is long-shot 2024 presidential campaign.

Republicans, however, appear unconvinced – with DeSantis’s primary opponents frequently reminding voters that the Florida Governor was an early booster of Fauci’s pandemic response. In March of 2020, DeSantis stated: “And from Dr. Birx to Dr. Fauci to the vice president who’s worked very hard, the surgeon general, they’re really doing a good job. It’s a tough, tough situation, but they’re working hard.”

Court Rules AZ Used Illegal Signature-Verification in Elections.

A state court has ruled that the Arizona Secretary of State used illegal signature-verification methods in the state’s prior two elections. The Superior Court for the County of Yavapai ruled that the Secretary, in permitting signature verification with documents that have no relation to the act of registering, “contradict[ed] the plain language” of the law.

In the decision, Judge John Napper wrote that the Arizona election “statute is clear and unambiguous” while adding, “…the legislature intended for the recorder to attempt to match the signature on the outside of the envelope to the signature on the documents the putative voter used to register.” By not specifically matching ballot signatures with voter registration documents, the Arizona Secretary of State acted in violation of the law.

Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections (RITE), a legal organization founded to defend state election laws, filed a lawsuit in March against the Arizona Secretary of State’s office – challenging it’s authority to ignore the state’s signature verification statute as written. According to RITE the Secretary’s instructions to “use a broader and less reliable universe of comparison signatures” resulted in “…ballots [being] counted despite using a signature that did not match anything in the voter’s registration record.”

Counsel for all parties have been ordered by Judge Napper to appear for a status conference on Sept. 19.

The 2022 elections in Arizona were fraught with accusations of voter fraud and mismanagement by then Secretary of State Katie Hobbs – herself a candidate for governor. Kari Lake, the Republican gubernatorial, argued at the time that many voter signatures were verified by election officials with no observers present. Lake was defeated by Hobbs by less than 20,000 votes. In the Arizona Attorney General race, Republican candidate Abraham Hamadeh was defeated his Democrat opponent by only 280 votes.

Mayor of ‘Sanctuary’ New York Now Says Migrants ‘Will Destroy’ City.

New York City Mayor Eric Adams, who promoted open borders and styled NYC as a “sanctuary city” for years, now says mass migration is poised to “destroy” the Big Apple as it struggles with an influx of over 110,000 illegal aliens.

“Let me tell you something, New Yorkers. Never in my life have I had a problem that I did not see an ending to. I don’t see an ending to this. I don’t see an ending to this,” Adams warned.

“This issue will destroy New York City. Destroy New York City,” he stressed. “We’re getting 10,000 migrants a month…  people from all over the globe have made their minds up that they’re going to come through the southern part of the border and come into New York City,” the Democrat complained – despite having hailed Joe Biden’s decision to “halt border wall construction” as a great achievement in 2021.

Now, Adams complains the Biden regime is not doing enough to alleviate NYC’s migrant crisis. Other senior Democrats seem equally reluctant to lend a hand, with New Jersey Governor Phil Murphy – who previously declared NJ would be a “sanctuary state” under his leadership – urging Biden not to send any NYC migrants to federal sites on his turf.

“I don’t see any scenario where we’re going to be able to take in a program in Atlantic City or frankly elsewhere in the state,” Murphy insisted earlier this month.

Despite these complaints from Adams and Murphy, border states with conservative electorates who never supported the Democrats’ mass migration policies continue to bear the brunt of the crisis.
