Gavin Newsom Relatives Hosting Big Money Fundraiser for Trump.

Relatives of far-left California Governor Gavin Newsom are hosting a major fundraiser for Donald Trump in the Bay Area on September 13. Tom Siebel, a relative of Newsom’s wife, Jennifer Siebel Newsom, will host the event. Tickets are going for up to $500,000 per couple.

Tom Siebel is not the first Newsom family connection to the political right. Newsom’s father-in-law, Ken Siebel, registered as a Republican in Florida, and a trust connected to the Siebel family donated $5,000 to Florida Governor Ron DeSantis in 2022.

However, when DeSantis suggested the Siebels had fled the Golden State for the Sunshine State to escape Newsom’s policies during a debate, Ken Siebel dismissed the Florida Governor as a “slimeball.”

California has not voted for a Republican presidential candidate since 1988, and Joe Biden won with over 60 percent of the vote in 2020. Nevertheless, the Republican minority is significant in purely numerical terms, with more people voting for Trump in California than in Texas, and the state plays a substantial role in GOP fundraising. Alongside the Siebel fundraiser, former President Trump is attending another event at a currently undisclosed Los Angeles location on September 12, with tickets going for up to $250,000. On Sunday, Trump’s running mate, Senator J.D. Vance, sold out a Los Angeles fundraiser alongside former independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr.

NOT ALONE. 

Newsom is not the only high-profile Democrat whose relatives prefer Trump to Kamala Harris. Jeff Walz, older brother of Democratic vice presidential hopeful Tim Walz, says he is “100 percent opposed to all his [brother’s] ideology.”

“The stories I could tell. Not the type of character you want making decisions about your future,” Jeff Walz added.

Eight members of the Walz family in the Minnesota Democrat’s native Nebraska subsequently posed in ‘Nebraska Walz’s for Trump’ T-shirts.

Biden-Harris Govt’s Own Intelligence Officials Dispute Claim Russia Is Interfering in the 2024 Election.

An election security update issued by the Biden-Harris government’s Director of National Intelligence (DNI) contradicts—in part—Attorney General Merrick Garland and Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Christopher Wray’s claims that Russia is actively interfering in the 2024 U.S. presidential election. Specifically, the DNI notice states, “the [intelligence community] has not observed any foreign actors seeking to interfere in the conduct of the 2024 elections.”

“The interagency election security community assesses that it would be very difficult for a foreign actor to manipulate election processes at a large enough scale to impact the outcome of a federal election without detection by intelligence collection, post-election audits, or the physical and cybersecurity monitoring of the decentralized and diverse election infrastructure across the country,” the DNI report reads.

Late last week, Attorney General Garland and FBI Director Wray announced the Biden-Harris government is indicting two Russian nationals for violating the Foreign Agents Registration Act (FARA). At a news conference announcing the prosecutions, both Garland and Wray insinuated the two Russian individuals were at the center of a plot to interfere in the U.S. election. However, the indictment itself details a broader scheme to inject pro-Russia talking points into American news and heighten partisan discord among the populace.

The DNI does state that there are foreign operations aimed at boosting preferred candidates—something that occurs in almost every U.S. presidential election. To this end, the intelligence community notes that foreign actors “sometimes use cyber tools to collect information that helps them… embarrass or denigrate particular candidates through leaks”—likely referring to a recent hacking of former President Donald J. Trump’s campaign by Iran. The hacked documents and emails were subsequently leaked to several media outlets—though they have chosen thus far not to publish the illicitly obtained material.

This Democrat Lashed Out at Colleagues for Calling Republicans ‘Weird.’

Congressman Ro Khanna, serving as a campaign surrogate for Kamala Harris, is expressing his disapproval of fellow Democrats calling Republicans “weird.” Speaking at an event hosted by the Guardian, Khanna said, “I’m not, in candor, a fan of calling each other ‘weird’ or names… I think we have to, in this country, and as a party, not just win, but deserve victory, and to deserve victory means to offer a vision that is going to bring this country together with a common purpose.”

The Harris campaign has repeatedly labeled former President Donald J. Trump and, in particular, his running mate Senator J.D. Vance, “weird” throughout the election campaign, with much of the corporate media amplifying the narrative. In July, Harris’s running mate, Tim Walz, said, “These are weird people on the other side; they wanna take books away, they wanna be in your exam room… these are weird ideas.”

The Minnesota Governor was referring to Republicans seeking to remove sexually graphic books from school libraries, such as All Boys Aren’t Blue, which describes underage cousins performing gay sex acts on each other, among other lurid passages.

Walz worked as a teacher for decades before entering politics, serving as a faculty advisor to a “gay-straight alliance” group pushing LGBTQ issues on minors as long ago as 1999. Many parents appeared to regard the behavior of the Democrat and his group as “weird,” pulling their children out of a “Gay Awareness Day” all-student assembly at which speakers discussed LGBTQ sexuality.

As Governor, Walz has made Minnesota a “transgender sanctuary state” and signed legislation that removed anti-pedophile language from employment protection laws.

DATA: Trump Pulls Back into National Lead, With Swing States Still Neck-and-Neck.

With fewer than two months until Election Day in the United States, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are entering the final phase of their campaigns. Polling data shows an inconclusive split between the two candidates. Despite Harris’s media-boosted surge when she announced her candidacy in late July, recent polls indicate a shift back toward Trump.

The latest New York Times/Siena College poll conducted from September 3 to 6 shows Trump leading Harris by just one percentage point, at 48 percent to Harris’s 47 percent. The poll’s three-point margin of error suggests that the race remains close. Both 2016 and 2020 polls showed Trump way behind his competitors at this stage in the race.

The results are significant as they come just two days before the first head-to-head debate between the candidates, scheduled for September 10 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, and hosted by ABC News.

In swing states such as Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin, the race remains highly competitive. Trump and Harris appear tied in Arizona, Georgia, Nevada, and North Carolina at 48 percent each. Harris slightly leads in Pennsylvania by one point and holds a two-point advantage in Michigan and Wisconsin.

Dick Cheney Joins Vladimir Putin in Backing Kamala Harris.

Former Vice President and Iraq War criminal Dick Cheney intends to vote for Kamala Harris in November’s presidential election, according to his daughter, former Congresswoman Liz Cheney. The former Wyoming Congressman revealed her arch-neoconservative father’s candidate preference in an interview with Mark Leibovich of the globalist Atlantic magazine during the Texas Tribune Festival earlier on Friday.

Liz Cheney told Leibovich and the crowd at the confab that her father—who oversaw the aggressive and heretofore irrevocable expansion of the U.S. surveillance state—believes former President Donald J. Trump is a “grave threat to our democracy.”

According to his daughter, the former vice president, who served under George ‘Dubya’ Bush, considers Trump responsible for the January 6 Capitol riots.

“My dad believes — and he said publicly — that there’s never been an individual in our country who is as grave a threat to our democracy as Donald Trump is,” the former Congresswoman said. The elder Cheney’s endorsement comes on the heels of his daughter’s decision publicly backing Harris, announced earlier this week.

Both Dick and Liz Cheney are notable Russia hawks, with the former opposing the normalization of relations with Russia after the collapse of the Soviet Union while serving as the U.S. Secretary of Defense under the late George H.W. Bush. However, their backing of Harris has placed them in the same camp as Russian President Vladimir Putin, who announced his preference for the Democratic Party nominee on Thursday.

The Iraq War, championed by Dick Cheney and other neoconservatives in the Bush White House, resulted in the deaths of nearly 5,000 American military service members, with an additional 32,000 wounded in action. An estimated 1,500 military contractors working for the U.S. and its allies also lost their lives. Upwards of half a million Iraqis died in the conflict. Meanwhile, the power vacuum created by removing Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein resulted in the rise of the Islamic State terror group and the expansion of Iranian influence throughout the Middle East.

Other speakers joining Liz Cheney at the Texas Tribune Festival include Georgia election denier Stacey Abrams, Congressman Colin Allred (D-TX), Biden-Harris Secretary of Homeland Security Alejandro Mayorkas, former Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), and Governor Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI).

Leaked Army Advisory Warns of Migrant Gang Violence in Major Cities.

A threat advisory issued by the U.S. Army to Department of Defense (DOD) personnel across the country warns the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua (TdA) has established a significant foothold in multiple American cities and poses a serious danger to local, state, and federal law enforcement.

The document—designated as Controlled Unclassified Information (CUI) and obtained by investigative journalist James O’Keefe—states the violent migrant gang is employing advanced technology and surveillance to execute their criminal operations.

The advisory states that TdA “has established a presence in Brooklyn, Bronx, and Williamsburg, NY,” with an estimated 400 gang members taking up residence in the boroughs. Additionally, the U.S. Army warns the gang has forged close ties to Iranian-backed terrorist groups, including Hamas and Hezbollah.

While Democratic lawmakers have largely dismissed reports that TdA has taken over apartment complexes in Aurora, Colorado, the threat advisory appears to confirm the incidents. Concerningly, the document also details an August 24 incident where it is believed TdA members fired 19 rounds toward the Chapman Gate at Lackland Air Force Base in Texas. The U.S. Army also reiterates the DHS advisory warning local and state law enforcement that gang members have received the green light to target police in Denver, Colorado, and New York City.

The threat advisory may explain the increased presence of the National Guard and other military personnel in New York City, stating the U.S. Army’s Threat Analysis Division (TAD) has high confidence that DOD employees and their family members could become victims of the gang.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement sources claim most of the TdA members present in the country crossed the border illegally through Texas between 2022 and 2023. They were subsequently released by the Biden-Harris government in the U.S. pending removal proceedings.

What if the Venezuelan gang crime in major American cities was always the plan? To destabilize the country, and lead to mass national guard/army deployments in the name of “safety” and “security”? Remember: Tim Walz used the BLM lockdowns to fire on innocent civilian Americans and lock them in their own homes

Kamala Raised $361 Million in August – Nearly 3X the Trump Campaign.

Kamala Harris’s 2024 presidential campaign raised $361 million last month—nearly tripling the cash raised by her opponent, former President Donald J. Trump. The August cash haul could give Harris a significant advantage over Trump as the campaigns hit the homestretch before November’s presidential election.

Altogether, the Harris campaign and affiliated Democratic committees have just over $400 million in cash on hand. Meanwhile, former President Trump reports nearly $300 million in the bank, giving Harris a $100 million edge. The Democratic Party and its nominee’s fundraising was likely aided by their party convention held in late August—over a month after the Republican National Convention.

Since being selected as the Democratic Party’s 2024 nominee following the 81-year-old incumbent President Joe Biden’s announcement that he would not seek re-election, Harris has raised over $600 million. However, a share of that campaign cash came through a transfer from the now-defunct Biden campaign.

The Democrat cash advantage has allowed Harris to fuel a $370 million ad buy that began on Labor Day and will run through the November election. Harris’s campaign has also earmarked $25 million to spend on down-ballot races as Democrats struggle to retain control of the U.S. Senate and retake the House of Representatives.

According to the Democratic nominee’s campaign, over 60 percent of their August contributions came from women, while about 20 percent came from registered Republicans and independents. Before Harris entered the race, former President Trump led then-candidate Joe Biden in fundraising. Trump’s cash advantage was fueled in part by the Democrats’ lawfare campaign against him and by major donors becoming increasingly wary of the 81-year-old Biden’s cognitive decline.

RFK Wins Appeals to Remove Him from These CRITICAL Ballots.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., has won two legal appeals in Michigan and North Carolina to have his name removed from the states’ respective 2024 presidential election ballots. The state appellate courts reversed two lower court rulings issued just days ago, which held that the independent presidential candidate’s ballot line would remain in place.

In North Carolina, the appellate court remanded a ruling issued by Wake County Superior Court Judge Rebecca Holt yesterday—directing the lower court to rewrite its opinion in favor of Kennedy. On Thursday, Judge Holt held that Kennedy—who suspended his campaign late last month and endorsed former President Donald J. Trump—suffers only “minimal” harm by remaining on the state’s ballot compared to the harm having to reprint ballots would do to the state.

Following the appellate court ruling, the North Carolina State Board of Elections issued a memo informing local officials to halt the mailing of absentee ballots to voters—a process set to begin this afternoon. However, the memo also ordered officials not to destroy the current ballots, suggesting the State Board of Elections intends to appeal the court ruling.

Moments after the North Carolina ruling was handed down, a state appellate court in Michigan also issued an order to remove Kennedy’s name from the state ballots. The Michigan decision also reverses and remands a lower court ruling earlier this week preventing Kennedy from removing his name.

The National Pulse previously reported that polling data suggests Kennedy supporters break by a two-to-one ratio for former President Trump over the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, Kamala Harris.

REVEALED: ‘Independent’ Newspaper Meddling In U.S. Election Publishes Chinese State Propaganda.

The far-left ‘Independent’ newspaper, which consistently intervenes in favor of Kamala Harris and the Democratic Party in the United States, is embroiled in a Chinese Communist Party (CCP) propaganda relationship that sees masses of pro-China “puff pieces” published on its website, furthering the interests of the CCP in the U.S., UK, and Europe.

“China Watch” – a series of articles by CCP-state-run newspaper China Daily, provides content for the Independent without any editorial oversight nor scrutiny from the UK-based paper, which in turn is owned by globalist oligarchy Evgeny Lebedev, as well as Saudi businessman Sultan Muhammad Abuljadayel.

Articles published by the Independent take the form of “soft-PR” for the Chinese government, often “reporting” on business opportunities for foreign firms, cultural issues, and trade with China.

As the Independent takes money from the Chinese Communist Party’s propaganda newspaper, it has also sought to interfere in the 2024 presidential race, regularly publishing articles clearly biased toward the Kamala Harris campaign.

Articles on former president Donald J. Trump bear headlines such as “Trump says convicted criminals should spend time behind bars. What about him?” or “Trump tried to explain how he plans to make childcare more affordable. It was a word salad.”

Vice President Kamala Harris received a much more favorable set of headlines, such as, “Optimism in the country perked up after Harris entered race, with poll reaching highest peak since 2021.”

The Independent’s collusion with China follows the plethora of mainstream outlets that have been taking CCP-sponsored trips to China in exchange for favorable coverage for years as part of groups like the China-United States Exchange Foundation.

In 2021, a member of President Joe Biden’s China team even stated she was “fine” with China spreading influence and propaganda in America.

Kamala’s VP Pick Tim Walz Linked to Wuhan Lab?

Kamala Harris’s running mate, Governor Tim Walz (D-MN), promoted a medical research center with a longstanding partnership with the Wuhan Institute of Virology (WIV) in China. As a Member of Congress, Walz secured millions of dollars in funding for the Minnesota-based Hormel Institute, which collaborates with the WIV on numerous research projects, including a 2020 study on COVID-19.

The revelation of Walz’s involvement with the Hormel Institute and the Wuhan lab is the latest in a concerning series of connections between the Minnesota Democrat and Communist China. While in Congress, Walz secured over $2 million in funding for the institute affiliated with the University of Minnesota.

“For 80 years, the Hormel Institute has helped pave the way for Minnesota to lead in biomedical innovation,” the 2024 Democratic Party’s vice presidential nominee said in April, praising the research center. Walz added: “It was great to stop by their facilities yesterday in Austin to see that work in action.”

The National Pulse previously reported that Walz is facing a Congressional investigation over his ties to China. In a letter last month, House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer (R-KY) pressed Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Christopher Wray to provide his committee with any materials the agency has regarding Walz’s Chinese connections.

Walz, who has traveled to China 30 times, including for his honeymoon, stated in 2016 that he believes the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) does not necessarily need to be viewed as an adversarial entity. Additionally, the Minnesota Democrat praised the CCP and lauded the ideals of international communism to students at a Nebraska high school while teaching in the state during the 1990s.

Earlier this year, the U.S. government halted federal funding to a nonprofit collaborating with the Wuhan lab, which the FBI suggests as the likely source of the novel coronavirus.

Researchers from the Hormel Institute, the WIV, and other Chinese institutions have frequently co-authored studies. Bin Liu, a Hormel Institute professor involved in several studies with Wuhan-based researchers, attended Wuhan University.
