Kamala Harris Says She Curses More Because She Is Veep

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) In a recent interview with Rolling Stone, Kamala Harris said that she started to curse more after she got into the White House in 2021.

During a wide-ranging interview, a propagandist from the far-left magazine asked Harris what she’s done differently since getting into the White House. In response, Harris said that she started to curse more, mentioning how she recently dropped an F-bomb during a live-streamed White House event.

“I had to! I had to!” Harris said, after telling the White House group that sometimes “you need to kick that f***ing door down,” referring to taking opportunities.

“What have I done differently since I’ve been in this office? I curse more! Although, kind of. I don’t know. It’s not a new language to me, and I think when one speaks the language, one should get the pronunciation down. My pronunciation is very good, thank you very much!” she said, while adding her infamous maniacal laugh.

Instead of apologizing for the inappropriate language, Harris embraced it, adding that cursing is “not accepting the status quo.”

“So approaching my work — always challenging traditions, not accepting the status quo, knowing what’s possible, even if it hasn’t been done before — I also know how difficult it can be to propose and require new approaches. When people hear ‘status quo,’ they think, ‘Oh, static.’ But let me tell you — and it’s a learned experience for me — the status quo is anything but static. The status quo is quite dynamic. You start trying to change the status quo, you f*** with the status quo, it will fight you.”

Harris was also asked during the same interview about an abortion case in front of the Supreme Court and Harris had nothing better to do than curse again.

“It’s f***ed up,” she said.

MURDOCK: Trump’s Populist Tax Cuts May Be Tipping Point for Blue-Collar Voters

MURDOCK: Trump’s Populist Tax Cuts May Be Tipping Point for Blue-Collar Voters

(Deroy Murdock, Headline USA) Rallying Las Vegas voters on June 9, President Donald J. Trump said: “For those hotel workers and people that get tips, you’re going to be very happy, because when I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips.”

Trump’s Tip Tax-repeal proposal blends sensible policy and smart politics.

The presumptive GOP standard bearer discussed this idea with congressional Republicans on Capitol Hill Thursday.

“He would like to tell you that it was incredible research and policy discussion, but the secret is, he got it from a waitress,” Sen. Kevin Cramer, R-N.D., told Roll Call after huddling with Trump over a Republican legislative agenda.

Cramer said that Trump got this idea when a Las Vegas waitress told him, “They are coming after my tips.”

The Tax Foundation analyzed the latest IRS data: In 2018, some 6.13 million workers each paid federal income tax on an average of $6,249 in tips. Keeping that cash, rather than having it incinerated in Washington, would ease the pain of everyday Americans who endure President Joe Biden’s lingering inflation and dwindling growth.

“In an act of political genius, President Trump promised to eliminate income taxes on tips, should he win the November election,” Grover Norquist, founder of Americans for Tax Reform, told me.

“The promise was made in Nevada, one of many states where thousands of waiters and waitresses see tips as immediate rewards for their hard work and extra effort,” he added. “Every tip is a pay hike.”

The Left cannot argue that Trump is scrapping the Tip Tax to enrich his fellow billionaires at Mar-a-Lago. Instead, Trump would help barbers, baristas, and bartenders—people like those he recently visited at an Atlanta Chick-fil-A, a Harlem bodega, and a South Bronx park.

This working-class tax repeal will ease efforts to make permanent the Trump–GOP Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. Killing the Tip Tax is the side order of onion rings that makes the permanent-tax-cut burger irresistible.

“Crooked Joe Biden has taken the totally opposite approach, trying to TAX more and more of their Tips, even hiring 88,000 IRS Agents to collect!” Trump wrote via Truth Social. “In fact, Crooked Joe substantially increased the Reporting Requirements for Workers (2023!), and would go still further if I wasn’t here to watch.”

Indeed, ditching the Tip Tax will spare employees and employers endless paperwork hassles and needless scrutiny from Biden’s brigades of intrusive tax inspectors.

“The IRS wants to look at how they can trap the entire transaction process more accurately, thereby netting more revenue,” said National Taxpayers Union President Pete Sepp. “It could also impose a whole new web of record-keeping systems and compliance burdens.”

Compare Trump’s valuable tax cuts for workers with the Democrats’ venomous minimum-wage mandates.

Last April 1, California inflicted a 25% hourly pay hike on fast-food chains with at least 60 outlets—from $16 to $20. As conservatives warned, results have been poisonous:

  • Rubio’s Coastal Grill padlocked 48 Mexican restaurants in the Golden State and filed for bankruptcy due to “significant increases to the minimum wage in California.”
  • Franchisees sacked 2,000 Pizza Hut delivery drivers from Sacramento to San Bernardino.
  • Burger King franchisee Harsh Ghai planned to install job-killing digital-order kiosks in his 140 West Coast eateries between 2029 and 2034. Instead, Ghai will deploy them all by late this month “in every single restaurant in response to the legislation to be able to balance some of these labor costs that are hitting us.”
  • Citing data from Kalinowski Equity Research, KNBC Los Angeles reports that in just the first 18 days of the $20 minimum wage, fast-food prices rose 7% at Starbucks, 7.5% at Chipotle, and 8% at Wendy’s.

So, the Democrat “solution” closes businesses, kills jobs, unleashes robots, and boosts prices.

Donald J. Trump pledges to free workers from pouring their tips into the Potomac.

On Nov. 5, these visions will compete on the ballot.

Choose wisely.

Black Politicians Misidentified in Major Media Blunder

Black Politicians Misidentified in Major Media Blunder

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) New York Magazine used the photo of the wrong black man in an attempt to criticize Rep. Ritchie Torres, D-N.Y. 

The magazine published an article about self-described “progressives who left,” specifically focusing on Torres, Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa., and former Rep. Mondaire Jones. 

In a photo for the article, also shared on social media, New York Magazine mistakenly used a picture of New York Lieutenant Gov. Antonio Delgado instead of Torres, reported the Daily Caller. 

The error was first noticed by New York Post reporter Jon Levine on Twitter. He wrote, “I am guessing New York Magazine meant to use a picture of Rep. Ritchie Torres here — but this is Antonio Delgado? — Yikes.” 

Despite New York Magazine’s use of Delgado’s photo, the piece does not mention Delgado at all. 

Torres criticized the outlet for the mistake, saying, If New York Magazine is going to publish an Anti-Israel hit piece by Sarah Jones, then at least do enough due diligence to get the photo right.  I am not Antonio Delgado.”  

He added, “Not all Black people look the same.” 

In response to the error, the magazine issued a correction: “A photo-illustration in a previous version of this story incorrectly included Antonio Delgado, not Ritchie Torres.” 

The article, written by Sarah Jones, discusses Democrats who have departed from the so-called progressive wing of the Democratic Party. 

Torres’s and Fetterman’s support for Israel has made them persona non grata for the radical leftist wing of the Democratic Party. 

Jones was a one-term lawmaker who lost his re-election to Rep. Mike Lawler in the 2022 midterm elections when Republicans won the House majority. 

Jones has endorsed George Latimer, a Westchester County Executive, against Rep. Jamaal Bowman, D-N.Y. Latimer has also received the endorsement of Hillary Clinton.

Concerns Raised at G7 Over Biden’s Conduct: ‘Worst He Has Ever Been’

Concerns Raised at G7 Over Biden’s Conduct: ‘Worst He Has Ever Been’

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) A diplomat who attended the G7 Summit in Italy last week recounted his experience of President Joe Biden appearing disoriented and wandering off.

The diplomat described Biden as “the worst he has ever been,” according to the New York Post. 

Another attendee from a non-American delegation told The Sun that the first meeting where Biden wandered away during a skydiving demonstration was “embarrassing.”

On Friday, as world leaders gathered to observe skydivers, Biden got distracted and began walking away from the main event. 

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni noticed Biden looking confused, quickly intervening and directing him back to the right direction. 

What had stolen Biden’s attention? A group of technicians packing a parachute. 

United Kingdom Prime Minister Rishi Sunak said that Meloni told Biden not to worry about the technicians as they would meet them later. 

“We were meant to line up so they could come and then shake all our hands,” Sunak said. 

Shortly thereafter, they gathered for a photo-op. 

As reported by the New York Post, Meloni had to wait for 20 minutes before Biden arrived. When he finally did, Meloni jested, “You shouldn’t leave a woman waiting like this.” 

The president also failed to attend a dinner during the G7 meetings on Thursday. 

In response, White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed, “There’s going to be a lot of meetings happening, a lot of sessions, as you know, and so, the President is certainly going to be engaged for the — the two days — or two — two — two and a half days that he is in Italy at the G7. So, I wouldn’t read too much into him not going to one dinner.” 

At the summit, the G7 leaders agreed to lend $50 billion in an alleged loan for Ukraine. 

Biden Watched Dog Bite Secret Service Agents Many Times, Kicked, Punched Pets

Biden Watched Dog Bite Secret Service Agents Many Times, Kicked, Punched Pets

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Joe Biden was present at least three times when his former dog, Commander, bit Secret Service agents.

Judicial Watch reported that Biden also treated the dogs poorly by kicking and punching them sometimes.

The German shepherd and his predecessor, Major, were responsible for around three dozen attacks before they were removed from the White House earlier this year and in 2021.

The documents that Judicial Watch obtained via a Freedom of Information Act request also revealed that agents were not fond of working with Commander, wishing each other a “safe shift” if they knew they’d be close to the dog.

“While POTUS and Commander were in the Kennedy Garden I was standing halfway from the Book-Sellers and the Family Theater. POTUS opened the Book-Seller door and said [redacted]. As I started to walk toward him to see if he needed help, Commander ran through his legs and bit my left arm through the front of my jacket. I pulled my arm away and yelled ‘No!'” the agent said.

Biden “also yelled [redacted] to Commander,” and “then [redacted]. I obliged and Commander let me pet him,” the agent added.

However, the attacks didn’t stop.

“When turning to close the door, Commander jumped again and bit my left arm for the second time. POTUS again yelled at Commander and attached the leash to him. My suit coat has 3 holes, 1 being all the way through. No skin was broken,” the agent said.

The behavior of the animals was probably the result of Biden not caring for his dogs, sometimes kicking and punching them.

“Can we please find a way to get this dog muzzled?” a Secret Service Safety, Health & Environmental officer wrote an email in September 2023, after the incident happened.

Months later, the dog was given to Biden’s relatives.

The most serious violent incidents with Commander happened when Biden was not beside the dog. There were at least 22 biting incidents with Commander between October 2022 and June 2023, with 10 of these bites requiring medical treatment. In one bite incident, East Wing Tours were closed to the public for 20 minutes due to blood being on the floor.

Navarro Describes Harrowing Conditions in Biden Jail: ‘Lawfare Is Real’

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Peter Navarro, the former Director of the Trump White House National Trade Council, has shared details of his chilling experiences at a federal correctional facility after being sentenced for contempt of Congress. 

Navarro, 75, received a four-month prison sentence for citing executive privilege during the partisan Jan. 6 congressional investigation. He spoke extensively to the Daily Caller about his ordeal.

“It’s a dangerous place health-wise,” Navarro told the outlet. “I’m fortunate I don’t take any medicines, because prescription drugs are in short supply at the daily ‘pill line,’ and a lot of inmates needlessly suffer from symptoms that their prescription drugs would otherwise ameliorate.” 

Navarro described being among roughly 200 inmates in close dormitory quarters, noting that a new strain of COVID-19 emerged and spread rapidly. 

The former White House official has observed significant “unnecessary misery” in jail, attributing it to “mismanagement and the callous disregard of laws like the First Step Act by the Bureau of Prisons — prison can break you both mentally and physically, and it certainly doesn’t prepare inmates for success and honest work in the outside world.” 

Navarro mentioned that his access to news is limited but that he manages to watch Fox News briefly. 

He said, “I also read the Economist on a weekly basis to stay abreast of world news (albeit with a globalist spin) and at dawn I catch five minutes or so of CNBC when the rest of the inmates are sleeping so I can check the stock and bond markets — Joe Kernan, Rick Santelli, and Jim Cramer remain favorites.” 

Navarro reported receiving “thousands” of letters, though he claimed that nearly half have been returned by the Biden-led Bureau of Prisons. 

“The most poignant letters — always handwritten — are often from veterans who fought for our country and are appalled at the takeover of our justice system for punitive political purposes,” he said. “Lawfare is real. Lawfare is wrong. They didn’t fight for the right of one political party to put members of the other party in jail. We’re not supposed to act like Communist China or a Banana Republic. But that’s the growing perception of our justice system.” 

Navarro is scheduled for release on July 17. Read the full interview here. 

Fani Willis Begs Court to Toss Trump’s Bid to Oust Her

Fani Willis Begs Court to Toss Trump’s Bid to Oust Her

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis’s Office filed a motion in Georgia’s Appeal Court on June 12, 2024, to throw out Donald Trump’s motion to remove Willis from one of his witchhunts, his Georgia 2020 election case.

Willis argued that she should remain a lead prosecutor in the case because her secret lover Nathan Wade resigned as special prosecutor after Judge Scott McAfee decided in March that only one could remain on the case, the New York Post reported.

“[Willis’s motion is a] last ditch effort to stop any appellate review of DA Willis’ misconduct,” Trump’s legal team said.

In court documents, Willis argued that McAfee’s “concern with any potential ‘questions’ stemmed from Wade’s continued presence in the case, a concern that was addressed when Wade withdrew.”

The court filings said the defendants’ “remaining evidence… relates to possible concerns about future appearances of impropriety that can no longer even come to pass.”

After hearing conflict of interest arguments about their secret romantic relationship, McAfee became highly critical of Willis and Wade.

Willis hired Wade as a special prosecutor on the 2020 election case against Trump and 18 co-defendants, in which they have been accused of attempting to overturn state election results.

It was later revealed that Willis financially benefitted from dating Wade, who treated her to exotic vacations after getting a high salary on the case. As expected, Willis and Wade refuted the allegations.

The arguments supporting the motion to disqualify her were rendered “a room without walls” after McAfee disregarded the testimony of star witness Terrance Bradley, Wade’s former law partner and divorce attorney, because he was concerned about Bradley’s credibility, Willis’s office said.

Steve Sadow, Trump’s lawyer, slammed the district attorney’s motion and said it was “a last-ditch effort to stop any appellate review of DA Willis’ misconduct.”

He then said the State’s motion deliberately failed to mention that McAfee’s ruling stated an “order of mendacity remains” from the hearing testimony by the DA and the State’s witnesses.

The judge also said there were “reasonable questions” whether Willis and Wade testified untruthfully.

Pelosi Claims Trump’s Family Should Stage an ‘Intervention’ for Him

Pelosi Claims Trump’s Family Should Stage an ‘Intervention’ for Him

(Headline USA) Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., claimed this week that former President Donald Trump’s family should stage an “intervention” for him.

“He knows he’s wacky,” Pelosi told MSNBC’s Lawrence O’Donnell on Thursday.

“He knows he’s an imposter,” she claimed. “… Everything he says about somebody else, whether it’s a judge in the courtroom, a witness, a juror, a member of Congress, a woman, an opponent in an election—everything he says is a projection of his own shortcomings.”

Pelosi’s rhetoric was, of course, a projection in its own right. Increasingly Democrats have begun to accuse Republicans—and Trump in particular—of the very behaviors in which they themselves are engaging, even down to the act of projecting onto others.

This is not a subconscious psychological avoidance tactic but is, in fact, a deliberately devised strategy taken directly from the socialist playbook.

The former House speaker went on to suggest that the reason those within Trump’s inner circle don’t agree with her diagnosis is because they don’t “love” him enough.

“I do wish there would be an intervention from his family, assuming they love him beyond the resources … that they would intervene,” she said.

She added that Republican Party also needs to stage its own “intervention” with Trump following his meeting with congressional Republicans in Washington, D.C. on Thursday.

“They have become a cult to a thug,” she said about Trump’s visit. “And that is really a tragedy.” 

Pelosi—who was in damage-control mode after a video of her admitting culpability for the Jan. 6 uprising surfaced earlier this week—did her best to deflect blame and pin it back onto Trump. 

The former president and presumptive 2024 presidential nominee met with congressional Republicans on Capitol Hill for the first time since the ill-fated 2021 rally resulted in a disruption to the Joint Session of Congress that was meeting to certify the Electoral College vote for Joe Biden.

Pelosi—who rejected Trump’s offer to dispatch the National Guard ahead of the gathering—referred to Trump’s meeting as a return “to the scene of the crime” and insisted that leftist media outlets make a big deal over it.

“We cannot let this be whitewashed,” she said. 

During his meeting with Republicans, Trump reportedly blasted Pelosi and her daughter, Christine Pelosi.

“Nancy Pelosi’s daughter is a whacko. Her daughter told me if things were different Nancy and I would be perfect together. There’s an age difference though,” Trump allegedly said, according to Punchbowl News’s Jake Sherman.

Trump, who turned 78 on Friday, is six years younger than the 84-year-old Pelosi, who some suspect may have had an affair with John F. Kennedy.

Christine Pelosi responded to the news, calling Trump “unwell, unhinged, and unfit to step foot anywhere near” her mother.

“Speaking for all 4 Pelosi daughters—this is a LIE,” she declared. “His deceitful, deranged obsession with our mother is yet another reason Donald Trump is unwell, unhinged and unfit to step foot anywhere near her—or the White House.”

N.Y. Gov. Mulls Partial Mask Ban Amid Rise of Jew-Hatred

N.Y. Gov. Mulls Partial Mask Ban Amid Rise of Jew-Hatred

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) Gov. Kathy Hochul, D–N.Y., will push a partial mask ban for New York City’s subways as a response to the anti-Semitic rhetoric by pro-Hamas supporters that skyrocketed after the terrorist group attacked Israel last year.

On June 13, 2024, Hochul said she was working with lawmakers after Jewish leaders called to reinstate an anti-masking law that was repealed as the COVID-19 hysteria started, the New York Post reported, adding that the talks were largely focused on subways.

“It’s time for a reset. There’s obviously a problem here. This will be dealt with,” Hochul said during a news conference.

The news came after recent Jew-hating incidents that happened in the city, especially one in which masked protesters demanded that “Zionists” raise their hands on a crowded subway train.

Hochul added that there will be exceptions to the rule, such as health concerns, cultural events, religious reasons and Halloween.

Democratic Mayor of New York City Eric Adams supported the idea on the same day.

“Cowards hide their faces. Dr. [Martin Luther] King did not hide his face. I agree with those who are calling for the removal of the ban, not only for the protesters who are using vile language but also for criminal behavior. Now is the time to go back to the way we were pre-COVID, where you should not be able to wear masks at protests,” he said.

Supporters of a mask ban said that making protesters show their faces will help crack down on violent and hateful incidents, adding that anti-masking laws were effectively used in the past to combat the Ku Klux Klan who were hiding behind their hoods.

Other New Yorkers, however, opposed the ban, arguing that people should be able to wear what they want to wear and that, if implemented, the ban would stigmatize wearing a mask, which would prevent people from doing it, even if they need to wear a mask for medical reasons.

Porn Industry Sues Again over Law Requiring Sites to Verify Users’ Ages

Porn Industry Sues Again over Law Requiring Sites to Verify Users’ Ages

(Headline USA) An Indiana law that requires pornographic websites to verify users’ ages— one of numerous such statutes in effect across the country—is being challenged by an association of the adult entertainment industry.

In April, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected a request by the same group, the Free Speech Coalition, to block a similar law in Texas.

According to the Indiana law signed by Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb in March, the state’s attorney general and individuals can bring legal action against a website’s operator if material “harmful to minors” is accessible to users under the age of 18.

In addition to Indiana and Texas, similar laws have been enacted in Arkansas, Kansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Montana, Oklahoma, Utah and Virginia. Backers of such laws say they protect children from widespread pornography online, while opponents say the laws are vague and raise privacy concerns.

In the complaint filed Monday, the association says the Indiana law is unenforceable and unconstitutional. The group is asking a federal judge in Indianapolis to issue a preliminary injunction against the law before it takes effect on July 1 and to block the law permanently.

Indiana Attorney General Todd Rokita—listed as a defendant in the lawsuit—said in a post on X that he looks forward to defending the law in court.

“Children shouldn’t be able to easily access explicit material that can cause them harm,” the post said. “It’s commonsense.”

The Texas law remains in effect as the Supreme Court weighs the Free Speech Coalition’s full appeal. The Utah law was upheld by a federal judge in August, and a federal judge dismissed a challenge against Louisiana’s law in October.
