Vice President and Democrat nominee Kamala Harris appeared on a sexually explicit podcast claiming she never had children because she was never aspiring to be “humble.” Harris appeared on Call Her Daddy, popular among promiscuous young women and known for crude and graphic sexual discussion, and addressed her recent criticism from Arkansas Governor Sarah Huckabee Sanders.
In Michigan, Sanders—a mother of three—stressed the significance of motherhood as a grounding force, explaining, “kids keep me humble.”
“Unfortunately, Kamala Harris doesn’t have anything keeping her humble,” she added.
“I don’t think she understands that there are a whole lot of women out here who, one, are not aspiring to be humble,” Harris told the podcast, suggesting that humility is a virtue that belongs to “the 1950s.”
Harris has two stepchildren through her husband Doug Emhoff, an adulterer who currently stands accused of impregnating a family nanny and being physically violent to a former girlfriend at the Cannes Film Festival in 2012.

Childlessness is a growing trend among many Western leaders, male and female. Former German Chancellor Angela Merkel, current German Chancellor Olaf Scholz, French President Emmanuel Macron, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte, and several other current and former Western leaders all have no children of their own.
President Donald J. Trump is a father of five, and his running mate, Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH), is a father of three, and the Trump campaign has adopted an explicitly pro-family platform.
Senator Vance has called for pro-parent policies like cutting childbirth costs and expanding child tax credits. Earlier in his career, he lamented the prevalence of “childless cat ladies” in national leadership roles, suggesting they have less skin in the game than Americans raising families.
“It’s just a basic fact. You look at Kamala Harris, Pete Buttigieg, [Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez], the entire future of the Democrats is controlled by people without children,” he argued.
Earlier this year, the Harris campaign attacked Vance for supporting the Child Tax Credit, likening it to a tax on childlessness. However, she later reversed her position and claimed she wanted to boost it.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) is arguing New York City Mayor Eric Adams should not resign despite being federally indicted over allegations of corruption. The Democrat mayor faces charges of allegedly soliciting campaign contributions from foreign nationals connected to the Turkish government before his 2021 run for mayor.
“My view is that Mayor Adams, like every other New Yorker and every other American, is entitled to the presumption of innocence and entitled to a trial by a jury of his peers who will ultimately determine his fate within the legal system,” Jeffries argued.
“At the same time, it’s important for Mayor Adams to articulate to New Yorkers in a compelling way a plan and a path forward to ensure that the city is continuing to function and run in a manner that meets the needs of everyday New Yorkers and in a manner that New York City, which we believe is the greatest city in the world, deserves,” he added.
Adams previously praised the Biden-Harris government for halting border wall construction and vowed New York City would remain a sanctuary city. However, he began criticizing open borders as the migrant crisis worsened, saying it would “destroy” his city.
Adams says the charges against him are false, suggesting the Biden-Harris Justice Department is targeting him for publicly accusing “the federal government [of doing] nothing as its broken immigration policies overloaded our shelter system with no relief.”

Vice President Kamala Harris’s efforts to distance her 2024 presidential campaign from much of the far-left policy stances she took during her 2020 White House bid appear to be driven—at least in part—by the influence of her brother-in-law, Tony West. A senior vice president and chief legal officer at Uber Technologies with deep ties to Wall Street and Silicon Valley, West has taken a leave of absence from his role as a corporate executive to serve as an informal advisor on Harris’s campaign.
While West has helped bolster support for his sister-in-law among the globalist corporate and financial elite, his influence over the Harris presidential campaign is rankling some organized labor leaders and economic progressives in the Democratic Party. After replacing the 81-year-old Joe Biden as the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee in July, Harris largely abandoned Biden’s more economically populist policies. Most recently, she attacked President Donald J. Trump’s tariff policies, which were largely unchanged under Biden.
TROUBLE WITH THE TEAMSTERS.
Harris’s shift away from organized labor-supported tariffs and West’s support of anti-union laws around the country is believed to have contributed to the Teamsters Union’s decision not to endorse the Democratic Party nominee ahead of the November election.
Uber’s support of a 2020 California ballot measure that would allow it to classify its drivers as independent contractors—enabling the company to deny certain employment benefits and more effectively resist unionization efforts—is said to have been a particular sticking point for the Teamsters’ leadership. Some of the union’s leaders pointed the finger at West for Uber’s $200 million campaign supporting the ballot measure.
Recent survey data released by the Teamsters suggest a significant shift in the rank-in-file from supporting Joe Biden to backing Donald Trump after the former announced he would not seek re-election.
SIDELINING BERNIE & WARREN.
West’s advisory role and influence on the Harris campaign isn’t just drawing criticism from organized labor, however. The Teamsters’ concerns are being echoed by allies of Senators Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), who contend Harris—under West’s advisement—is spending too much time attempting to win the support of Wall Street and Silicon Valley billionaires while ignoring the Democratic Party’s more economically progressive voter base.
“I don’t begrudge West and the Harris campaign for trying to have business outreach going on,” said long-time Sanders advisor Faiz Shakir in a recent interview. “But you don’t simultaneously see an outreach to those wanting to unrig the economy,” he lamented.
While West’s record as a DOJ attorney under the Clinton and Obama governments suggests he largely supports far-left progressive views on social and cultural issues, his record demonstrates his embrace of globalist economic interests. Progressive political activists are especially alarmed at continuing discussions regarding what role West may play in a Harris White House.
Kamala Harris’s embrace of technology billionaires like Reid Hoffman, Mark Cuban, and Reed Hastings is doing little to assuage progressives’ concerns regarding her close political relations with her brother-in-law. Hoffman, a visitor to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island, Little St. James, is pushing Harris to oust the aggressively pro-antitrust Federal Trade Commission Chairwoman Lina Khan—a darling among the progressive left and even some on the populist right.
EMBRACING THE CHENEY FAMILY.
While tensions over West’s role in building a more pro-globalist, pro-Wall Street Harris campaign has caused increasing strain with economic progressives, the Democratic Party presidential nominee’s enthusiastic welcoming of support from warmonger and former U.S. Vice President Dick Cheney may prove a bridge too far.
A recent report from Semafor suggests any gains made among more right-leaning voters by Harris’s embrace of Dick Cheney—whom she called “an American patriot”—is likely to be offset by her continued slide among white working-class voters.
While serving under President George W. Bush, Dick Cheney was frequently the subject of Democratic Party leaders’ ire. The former Vice President played a critical role in pushing the U.S. to go to war against Iraq—peddling false claims that the Middle Eastern country’s then-dictator, Saddam Hussein, possessed weapons of mass destruction.
Likewise, Harris has also welcomed the support of Dick Cheney’s daughter, former Congressman Liz Cheney. The former Wyoming lawmaker appeared alongside Harris on Wednesday in Ripon, Wisconsin—the birthplace of the Republican Party. Cheney lost her re-election bid in 2022 after being defeated in the state’s Republican congressional primary by a two-to-one ratio.

The Biden-Harris government’s Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas is suggesting the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)—a subagency of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and ostensibly tasked with responding to natural disasters—likely will not have enough money in its budget to get through hurricane season. While FEMA claims the catastrophic damage and costs from Hurricane Helene will limit its ability to respond to future storms, the agency announced $380 million in supplemental funding for illegal immigrant housing just a month ago—bringing the total to over $1 billion for the 2024 fiscal year.
Mayorkas made the remarks while traveling with President Joe Biden to North Carolina, where the western part of the state has seen catastrophic flooding and mudslides—with at least 160 declared dead so far—in the wake of Helene. The Biden cabinet official made similar claims in June, telling Congress that FEMA was underbudgeted.
In fiscal year 2024, FEMA saw an allocation of around $20 billion, while DHS received over $61 billion in total. In April, the disaster management agency announced it would “provide $640.9 million of available funds to enable non-federal entities to off-set allowable costs incurred for services associated with noncitizen migrant arrivals in their communities.” These grant funds primarily go to paying for food and shelter for illegal immigrants as they await their appearance before an immigration judge.
Despite the initial allotment for illegal immigrant housing, FEMA announced at the end of August that it would make an additional $380 million in grants available. The supplemental grants bring FEMA’s total spending on shelter and food for illegal immigrants to over $1 billion for the fiscal year.
The National Pulse reported earlier this week that eight illegal immigrants were arrested in flood-ravaged eastern Tennesse for looting in Hurricane Helene’s aftermath.

Members of several parties in the Germanparliament are set to introduce a motion to begin the process of banning the anti-mass migration Alternative for Germany (AfD), which is currently seeing success after success in regional elections. More than the 37 German lawmakers required to introduce the motion support it, including members of the ruling Social Democrats (SPD) and their Green coalition partners, the Left Party, and the notionally center-right Christian Democratic Union (CDU) formerly led by Angela Merkel.
The parliament cannot outright ban political parties by itself, so the motion calls on the German Constitutional Court to begin proceedings to ban the AfD. It also argues that the AfD should be cut off from all public party financing.
However, not all lawmakers support the motion. SPD politician Gesine Schwan warns the ban process could be “politically counterproductive” and actually increase public support for the AfD.
Sahra Wagenknecht, whose left-populist BSW party has also seen recent election success, called the move “the stupidest application of the year.” While economically left-wing, Wagenknecht shares some of the same concerns about mass migration as the AfD and is seen as socially conservative on many issues.
German politicians have been talking about banning the AfD for at least a year, with CDU lawmaker Marco Wanderwitz drafting legislation last October. Since then, the AfD has come second in state elections in Saxony and Brandenburg and finished first in Thuringia. Support among the German youth is surging for the party, with some polls showing it to be the most popular among young voters.

A new poll shows that over half (53 percent) of the British Conservative (Tory) Party’s members favor joining forces with Brexit leader Nigel Farage and his populist Reform Party. Compiled by the Popular Conservatism (PopCon) organization, the poll indicates that 70 percent of respondents favor a closer relationship with Nigel Farage’s party if not an outright merger.
Annunziata Rees-Mogg, head of communications at PopCon and a former Member of the European Parliament (MEP) for Reform’s predecessor, the Brexit Party, said of the results: “Every Conservative activist and canvasser knows people who had been Tories but voted Reform UK in July.”
Rees-Mogg’s brother, Sir Jacob Rees-Mogg, a former Cabinet minister for the Conservatives, previously urged the party to consider an electoral pact with Reform.
Speaking at the Conservative Party Conference in Birmingham, he suggested the Conservatives should step aside in nearly 100 constituencies where Reform had finished second to Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer’s Labour Party in the last election. Rees-Mogg argued that a strategic alliance with Reform would benefit both parties.
The Conservatives, currently amidst a leadership contest, experienced a massive loss in parliamentary seats after Britain’s July 4 snap election. Reform garnered millions of votes, many of which were from young voters. The party even outperformed the Tories with voters under 30.
Last month at the Reform Party conference, Farage did not mention a possible alliance with the Tories but said he wanted to professionalize the party.

A guest of the far-left MSNBC network claims that Hispanic voters are turning toward former President Donald J. Trump because they “want to be white” instead of being associated with immigrants. Maria Hinojosa, a host on the publicly funded broadcaster NPR, argues that the surge of support for Trump among Latinos is due to them wanting to be white, saying, “Latinos want to be white. They want to be with the cool kids.”
Hinojosa alleges many Hispanics “don’t want to be identified with all of those other immigrants that Donald Trump speaks so badly of, including me as a Mexican immigrant, so they’re like, ‘Let’s be with him.’”
Hinojosa admits that Hispanic support for Trump is a major issue for Vice President Kamala Harris and her campaign, saying it could even cost Harris the election in November.
Her comments come just months after leftist journalist and author Paola Ramos bizarrely claimed that “white supremacist tendencies” are driving Latino support for Trump.
“We can be minorities, but we too can perpetuate racism. Latinos, particularly the more generations are in this country, are not immune to nativism,” Ramos said.
In July, a report revealed that Latinos, who make up 20 percent of Nevada’s overall voters, are turning away from the Democrats, largely over immigration issues and the disastrous border policies of the Biden-Harris regime. A poll released in June revealed that as many as two-thirds of Hispanic voters want illegal immigrants deported back to their home countries.

Austria’s populist Freedom Party (FPOe) achieved its largest election success in the party’s history on Sunday, September 29, as young voters flocked to support the anti-mass migration party and its “remigration” policies. The FPOe won 29.2 percent of the national vote, beating their previous record of 26.9 percent back in 1999 when the party entered a coalition government as the junior partner of the center-right Austrian People’s Party (OeVP).
Herbert Kickl, leader of the FPOe and an ally of Hungary’s Viktor Orban in the European Union (EU), ran on an anti-mass migration platform and endorsed the concept of “remigration,” which could see large-scale deportations of illegal aliens and possibly incentives for migrants to return to their home countries.
“These invaders want to harm us, endanger our security and our prosperity,” Kickl said during the election campaign, calling for “Fortress Austria.”
The FPOe has become very popular among young voters, attaining first place among those under the age of 34 and winning 37 percent of the vote among those aged 35 to 59.
Despite winning the election, Kickl and his party will have to form a coalition government with another party for a majority in the Austrian parliament. Unlike Germany‘s Alternative for Germany (AfD) and France’s National Rally (RN), there is no so-called cordon sanitaire against the Austrian populists, with all other parties colluding to shut them out of office. This means there is a realistic prospect the FPOe could form a government with the center-right OeVP.
The OeVP last formed a coalition with the FPOe in 2017, which lasted until 2019. However, the OeVP was the senior partner in that coalition, and it is unclear whether it would accept a junior role with Kickl rather than an OeVP politician becoming Chancellor.
The Social Democrats, Greens, and liberal NEOS group have all ruled out working with the FPOe.

Representative Matt Gaetz (R-FL) published a detailed letter on Thursday to the House Ethics Committee declaring he will no longer cooperate in the investigation against him. The letter and its attached exhibits provide overwhelming evidence that the ethics investigations star witness Joel Greenberg fabricated allegations that Gaetz engaged in drug use and sexual contact with a 17-year-old female as part of an effort to get his criminal prison sentence reduced.
Additionally, Gaetz accuses the committee of purposefully circumventing several procedural norms to prolong the ethics investigation past its typical limit as an act of political retribution.
“It seems the fix is in,” Gaetz writes to the House Ethics Committee. He adds: “The Committee has refused to establish an Investigative Subcommittee, as is customary, perhaps because doing so would have time-limited this investigation long ago, and diluted the influence of those on the full committee who are seeking revenge.” Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) has pursued several attempts to remove Gaetz from Congress stemming from the latter’s successful ouster of the California Republican from power last year.
The Florida Congressman notes that the Ethics Committee has repeatedly “released public statements which cast [him] in a negative light” but chosen to ignore the plethora of exculpatory evidence he has provided. In a significant revelation, Gaetz details testimony from a jailhouse informant who has provided testimony that exonerates him entirely.
According to the informant who met Joel Greenberg in prison, the disgraced Florida politician—who is in prison for sex trafficking and financial fraud—is colluding with his victim to frame Gaetz. Greenberg hopes that by offering damning testimony—notably absent physical evidence—against Gaetz, federal officials will see fit to reduce his prison sentence. Additionally, the informant states that Greenberg’s sex trafficking victim, at the time a 17-year-old female, is working with Greenberg in exchange for monetary compensation.
Gaetz’s letter cites a Florida civil lawsuitrevealing textmessages Greenberg sent in which he claims to be paying for his victim’s own attorneys. In addition, Gaetz notes that he has provided the committee with evidence that the 17-year-old has subsequently sought monetary compensation from Greenberg in exchange for her backing his accusations.

Far-left blogger Ken Klippenstein has published an internal campaign vetting dossier on the 2024 Republican Party’s vice presidential nominee, Senator J.D. Vance (R-OH). Klippenstein, who previously worked as a journalist with The Intercept and the far-left progressive commentary web show The Young Turks, posted the material believed to have been hacked by the Islamic Republic of Iran on his Substack on Thursday. The National Pulse is choosing not to link to the dossier, given the plethora of personal information contained therein.
The dossier published by Klippenstein contains a bevy of private information belonging to Vance, including his social security number, personal phone number, physical addresses, and private email addresses. Klippenstein made no effort to conceal other private details and contact information for the vice presidential nominee, potentially constituting a threat to Vance and his family.
The 271-page document itself is fairly typical for any campaign’s vetting process. It raises several concerns about past policy positions and statements and weighs how these may impact the presidential ticket. The vetting materials make note of Vance’s early opposition to President Donald J. Trump’s 2016 campaign and some concerns over his ‘conservative’ bona fides.
Throughout the vetting document, Vance is revealed to be far less radically right-wing than portrayed by national Democrats and Kamala Harris’s presidential campaign. The Ohio Republican comes across as thoughtful and open to a wide array of policies and ideological propositions.
While the materials do not appear to be the explosive exposé alluded to by some members of the corporate media who received the documents from Iranian agents who hacked the Trump campaign, the publishing of private and personal details is concerning. The American intelligence community has made it abundantly clear that there is a concerted effort by the Iranian Islamist regime aimed at assassinating President Trump in order to prevent him from retaking the White House.
