New Mexico’s Gov Suspends Gun Rights, Says Constitutional Oath ‘Not Absolute’.

New Mexico Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham, a Democrat, issued an emergency order on Friday suspending the right to carry guns in public across Albuquerque and the surrounding Bernalillo County for at least 30 days. The decision comes in response to recent instances of gun violence, including the shooting death of an 11-year-old boy outside a minor league baseball stadium earlier this week. The order, classified as an emergency public health order, applies to open and concealed carry in most public places, excluding police and licensed security guards. Violators could face civil penalties and fines up to $5,000.

Quizzed on the unconstitutionality of the order, Grisham stunningly responded: “No constitutional right, in my view, including my oath, is intended to be absolute.”

Grisham acknowledged her order will face legal challenges, with Bernalillo County Sheriff John Allen stating concerns over violating constitutional rights and potential civil liability conflicts for his deputies.

This latest order follows a series of gun control measures signed by Governor Lujan Grisham, including a “red flag” law and a ban on gun possession for domestic violence offenders. As part of the emergency order, state regulators will conduct monthly inspections of firearms dealers statewide to ensure compliance with gun laws. The state Department of Health will also conduct a report on gunshot victims in New Mexico hospitals, aiming to gather demographic and firearm-related data to inform future policies.

1000+ Dead in Morocco Quake.

A powerful 6.8-magnitude earthquake struck Morocco late Friday night, resulting in the death of at least 1000 individuals, as reported by the country’s Interior Ministry. The seismic event occurred at 11:11 p.m. local time, according to the U.S. Geological Survey, with shaking lasting several seconds.

Morocco’s National Seismic Monitoring and Alert Network registered the earthquake as measuring 7 on the Richter scale. An aftershock with a magnitude of 4.9 was recorded by the U.S. agency approximately 19 minutes later. Marrakech, a city with a population of nearly one million people and renowned for its historic palaces, was among the affected areas.

The last such incident was a 6.4 quake in Al Hociema, which claimed the lives of at least 600 people. In 1960, an estimated 12,000 died after an earthquake near Agadir.

Marrakech is a UNESCO World Heritage site.

WATCH: DeSantis’ Campaign Will Be Described as an ‘Historic Clusterf*ck’.

Editor of the National Pulse Raheem Kassam believes Ron DeSantis‘ 2024 presidential nominee campaign will go down in American history as an “historic clusterfuck,” after the Florida Governor’s campaign has completely failed to gain momentum and alienated swatches of voters.

Speaking to Donald Trump Jr on his “Triggered” podcast,  Kassam explained that historians will likely see the campaign as “maybe the biggest fail in modern American political history given the great expectations.”

“I think probably the best way to describe it is an historic cluterf*ck, I think that’s probably as accurate as you can be with it.”

– Raheem Kassam, September 2023.

Kassam – perhaps the only political pundit to accurately predict how DeSantis’s campaign would go – also explained how he foresees the Florida Governor’s chief strategist Jeff Roe, selling off his ‘Axiom’ consulting firm after the presidential campaign.

Governor Kristi Noem Endorses Trump.

South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem is set to endorse Donald J. Trump at a rally in the Mount Rushmore State on Friday, praising him as a President who “shows up”.

“We’ve invited many other people to come to our state and talk to us, and they keep saying how insignificant South Dakota is,” she said.

“It’s not important to be in South Dakota right now; they want to be in Iowa or New Hampshire. And what I love about President Trump is he has said: ‘I will be there.’ He doesn’t ever overlook the little people, he doesn’t say states like South Dakota aren’t important, she said.

Governor Noem has championed election integrity since 2020, including paper ballots and voter ID, and recently signed a series of bills strengthening elections in her state even further.

She was also a much fiercer opponent of lockdown measures during the Wuhan virus pandemic than Trump rivals such as Ron DeSantis, despite the Floridian’s increasingly contested reputation as the key figure in pushing back against restrictions.

GA Grand Jury Wanted Charges Against Sitting U.S. Senators for their Opinions.

The Georgia special grand jury that recommended charges against former President Donald Trump also sought charges against United States Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC), as well as former Senators David Purdue (R-GA) and Kelly Loeffler (R-GA), according to the now-public special grand jury report. The document recommended the three prominent Republican lawmakers be charged for their involvement in an “…effort to overturn the 2020 presidential election… in Georgia, Arizona, Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, and the District of Columbia.”

Empaneled in May of 2022 to investigate alleged efforts to overturn the 2020 presidential election results in Georgia, the special grand jury examined evidence and heard testimony from 75 witnesses over a period of nearly seven months. When the investigation concluded, the special grand jury recommended charges against 39 individuals for attempting to in the 2020 election and offering a ‘false’ slate of presidential electors.

In Georgia, special grand juries differ from a ‘normal’ grand jury, serving only an investigatory purpose and lacking the power to issue actual indictments. The recommendations resulted in Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis convening a grand jury which handed down indictments of Trump and 18 other individuals last month.

Senator Graham, as well as former Senators Purdue and Loeffler, were among the 20 individuals recommended be charged by the special grand jury who were not indicted in District Attorney Willis’s RICO prosecution of former President Trump for alleged interference in the 2020 presidential election.

NYPost Claims Trump ‘Getting Smoked’ In Primary He’s Winning By Historic Margins.

The New York Post, owned by globalist billionaire Rupert Murdoch, is risibly claiming that former President Donald Trump is “getting smoked” in the 2024 Republican presidential primary – despite Trump leading by double-digit margins in the polls. Columnist Karol Markowicz acknowledges Trump leads in the Republican field, but argues: “[t]he comparison shouldn’t be to candidates in past elections but to incumbents,” adding that if Biden polled similarly, “…he’d be shoved off the stage.”

That’s not how primary polling or elections work, however. Markowicz is a supporter of Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, though fails to declare her allegiance in the article published in the paper that carries a Ukraine flag on its front page.

Media properties owned by Murdoch have stepped up attacks on former President Trump since the 2022 mid-term elections. Just two days after the election the New York Post‘s cover page read “Trumpty Dumpty”, blaming Trump for Republicans underperforming expectations. The Murdoch-owned Wall Street Journal called Trump “the Republican Party’s Biggest Loser.”

Murdoch himself has made clear his disdain for Donald Trump, calling the former President’s claims that 2020 presidential election was stolen “a huge disservice to the country” and “Pretty much a crime.” The billionaire media mogul insisted to executives at the Fox News, another media property he owns, that Trump was becoming “increasingly mad” while predicting: “In another month Trump will be becoming irrelevant and we’ll have lots to say about Biden, Dems, and appointments.”

In response to Murdoch attempts to derail his 2024 presidential run, Trump hasn’t minced words. In a video posted on Truth Social, Trump said: “Fox News and the Wall Street Journal fight me because Murdoch is a globalist… And I am America First. It’s very simple, and it will always be that way, so get used to it.”

CA to Fine School Boards for Resisting LGBT Pedo Curriculum.

The California Legislature has passed legislation empowering bureaucrats to sanction school boards that withdraw explicit books from schools or resist indoctrinating children with far-left gender, racial, and sexual ideology.

Despite its Democrat supermajority, the Golden State is home to many conservative enclaves, one of which recently tried to refuse to teach children lessons centered on Harvey Milk, a gay rights activist who groomed a 16-year-old in New York in his mid-thirties. The age of consent in New York is 17, while in California it is 18.

Governor Gavin Newsom hit the Temecula Valley Unified School District with a $1.5 million fine in retaliation, and the new bill the legislature has put on his desk, AB 1078, further increases the authorities’ powers to punish non-compliant conservatives.

“California is the true freedom state: a place where families – not political fanatics – have the freedom to decide what’s right for them,” the Governor declared as the bill was being passed, despite the fact it is clearly aimed at stopping conservatives from opting out of a particular poltiical agenda.

“All students deserve the freedom to read and learn about the truth, the world and themselves,” he added.

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.
