Larry Elder Drops Out of 2024 Race, Endorses Trump

(Headline USA) Republican presidential candidate Larry Elder suspended his campaign this week to endorse former President Donald Trump, calling on his peers to “unite” behind Trump and against President Joe Biden.

Elder, who did not meet the Republican National Committee’s requirements to make the first two debate stages, said suspending his grassroots campaign was a “difficult decision.” 

However, the presidential run allowed him to highlight issues important to him, including “the crisis of fatherlessness, the dangerous lie that America is systemically racist, the need for an amendment to the Constitution to set federal spending to a fixed percentage of the GDP,” Elder said.

“The breakdown of the family structure and the absence of positive father figures in the lives of many children have far-reaching consequences for our society, including the crime wave we are currently seeing in America today,” he continued. “I hope that my campaign has helped shine a light on these critical issues and sparked important conversations about how we can solve them.”

Elder then revealed he was endorsing Trump.

“Now that I am exiting the race, I am proud to announce my endorsement of Donald Trump for President of the United States,” he said. “His leadership has been instrumental in advancing conservative, America-first principles and policies that have benefited our great nation.”

The other Republican presidential candidates must do the same and “unite behind Donald Trump to beat Joe Biden and fight back against Biden’s unprecedented election interference and the Left’s destruction of America,” he added.

Elder gained attention toward the start of the 2024 race when he threatened to sue the RNC for “rigging” the race against him after he failed to qualify for the first presidential debate.

“I said from the beginning that it appeared the rules of the game were rigged, little did we know just how rigged it is,” he said at the time. “For some reason, the establishment leaders at the RNC are afraid of having my voice on the debate stage.”

‘He Drew a Swastika’: Adidas, Kanye West Accused of Anti-Semitism

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Both Adidas and rapper Kanye West have come under scrutiny following a detailed exposé by the New York Times, which unearthed unsettling allegations of anti-Semitic behavior.  

According to the report, one particularly disturbing incident occurred during a 2013 meeting at the Adidas headquarters in Germany, where West purportedly drew a swastika in a fit of displeasure. 

“The Adidas employees, thrilled to get started, had arrayed sneakers and fabric swatches on a long table near a mood board pinned with images,” the Times claimed. “But nothing they showed that day at the company’s German headquarters captured the vision Mr. West had shared.” 

The designs reportedly made West grow upset. “To convey how offensive he considered the designs, he grabbed a sketch of a shoe and took a marker to the toe,” two individuals recounted. “Then he drew a swastika.”

The Times highlighted that the incident took place mere miles away from Nuremberg, “where leaders of the Third Reich were tried for crimes against humanity.” 

Furthermore, the report detailed additional instances of alleged anti-Semitism, including an episode where West reportedly forced Adidas executives to watch pornography during a meeting. 

West is said to have told a Jewish Adidas employee to “kiss a picture of Hitler every day” and admitted that he paid a “a seven-figure settlement to one of his own senior employees who accused him of repeatedly praising the architect of the Holocaust.” 

West also allegedly said he “admired” Hitler’s “command of propaganda” and that the German leader was a “master marketer.” 

Despite these allegations, the report revealed that Adidas chose not to sever ties with West until 2022, following the artist’s public struggle during an interview with Alex Jones on Infowars. 

“The Jewish media has made us feel like the Nazis and Hitler have never offered anything of value to the world,” Ye said at one point during the interview. “I see good things about Hitler, also. … I see good things about Hitler. Every human being has something of value that they brought to the table, especially Hitler.”

Rockefellers, Soros, Give Millions to Hamas and Other Anti-Israel Groups

Rockefellers, Soros, Give Millions to Hamas and Other Anti-Israel Groups

(Dmytro “Henry” Aleksandrov, Headline USA) It was revealed that the Rockefeller brothers, George Soros and other leftists with a lot of money and connections have been donating millions of dollars to anti-Israel groups and terrorist groups, such as Hamas.

The Rockefeller Brothers Fund was founded by John, Nelson, Laurance, Winthrop and David Rockefeller, the five sons of John D. Rockefeller Jr., whose father created a vast empire in the early 20th century, becoming one of the wealthiest men in history (when adjusted for inflation) with his Standard Oil monopoly.

Unfortunately, the subsequent generations of Rockefellers have been less than prudent with how they spent their inherited wealth. Since 2018, RBF has given more than $3.4 million to Hamas and other terrorists, Slay News reported.

Among the non-terrorist groups that promoted anti-Semitic narratives for the Rockefeller millions were Defense for Children International-Palestine—an extension of the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine—Education for Just Peace in the Middle East and Jewish Voice for Peace.

In addition to that, the Rockefeller family gave more than $2.2 million to other groups that have either justified Hamas’s actions or outright blamed Israel for the Oct. 7, 2023 attack.

However, Rockefellers were not the only ones who funneled millions of dollars to anti-Israel causes. The New York Post reported that $10 million was given to different anti-Semitic groups over the past five years.

The organization that gave away this large sum of money was Washington, D.C.-based Arabella Advisors, which spreads the leftist ideology through its New Venture Fund, Hopewell Fund, Sixteen Thirty Fund, North Fund and Windward Fund, which have given a combined $10,833,396 to anti-Israel groups since 2018.

Among the groups who pushed Hamas propaganda and criticized Israel whenever it was possible were NEO Philanthropy, MPower Change, One Arizona, the Alliance for Youth Action, the Black Alliance for Just Immigration, the Alliance for Global Justice, Grassroots for Global Justice, IfNotNow Movement and the Arizona chapter of the Council on American-Islamic Relations.

Arabella Advisors also donated money to groups like the Education for Liberation Network and Muslims for Progressive Values that were brainwashing schoolchildren into thinking that the war between Israel and Palestine is a “struggle against occupation,” additionally suggesting that reports of Hamas raping women and burning Israeli parents and children alive were false.

It was also discovered through Arabella Advisors’s tax filings that the organization reported more than $1 billion in revenue in 2020. The for-profit firm that was founded in 2005 by former Clinton administration official Eric Kessler is not required to disclose its donors, among whom were leftist billionaires Soros and Pierre Omidyar.

“The network should immediately ask for their money back from these radical groups, and Arabella’s financial backers should reconsider the cost of supporting a network that is tacitly endorsing an alarming movement of hate aimed at Jewish communities across our country,” Caitlin Sutherland, the executive director of Americans for Public Trust, said.

Left’s Vitriol Aimed at Ivanka Trump as Judge Orders Testimony

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Ivanka Trump, the daughter of former President Donald Trump, faced disturbing vitriol from leftist social media users who are calling for her arrest after New York Judge Arthur Engorron ordered her on Friday to take the stand against her father. 

“Ivanka Trump should be in prison just like the rest of that grifting crime family, agree?” said Twitter user “Rich from CA,” a self-proclaimed strategist and political activist. Another user added, “On this is good stuff. She’s not a defendant, so does she bury Daddy and the idiot twins or perjure herself and risk jail time?? Poor Vanky. Decisions,  decisions.” 

Engorron, presiding over the civil case against the Trump Organization, issued the order for Ivanka to take the stand in the trial initiated by New York Attorney General Letitia James, a Democrat. 

Engorron’s ruling came in defiance of the Trump legal team’s efforts to shield the former first daughter from testifying. “I want to see her in person. That is how we prefer testimony,” Engorron said, as reported by the New York Post on Friday 

Ivanka is now set to give her testimony, followed by her brothers, Eric and Don Jr. Trump. Initially named as a defendant in the case, she was later removed following intervention by an appeals court. Her legal representatives had previously argued that a subpoena forcing her to testify constituted “continued harassment.”

Ivanka maintained that she no longer has any business ties in New York subject to the case’s jurisdiction. However, Engorron dismissed this defense, stating, “Ms. Trump has clearly availed herself of the privilege of doing business in New York.” 

Lawyers representing James emphasized the significance of Ivanka’s testimony, highlighting her close association with the Trump Organization.

“While no longer a Defendant in this action, she indisputably has personal knowledge of facts relevant to the claims against the remaining individual and entity Defendants,” attorneys representing James claimed. “But even beyond that, Ms. Trump remains financially and professionally intertwined with the Trump Organization and other Defendants and can be called as a person still under their control.”

Comer Rips Raskin’s Deceit After Ex-DOJ Official Vindicates Biden Probe

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer, R-Ky., and fellow Republican members launched a scathing attack on Rep. Jamie Raskin, D-Md., demanding an apology and correction for what they labeled as the dissemination of false information regarding the Biden family bribery allegations. 

The call for retraction comes in the wake of revelations from former Pittsburgh U.S. Attorney Scott Brady, whose recent testimony directly contradicted Raskin’s assertions that the Trump-era DOJ had shelved the investigation due to insufficient evidence. 

“[Y]ou have been a spirited critic of the need to look into President Biden or his family. It is of course your prerogative to determine how best to serve your constituents, Abbe Lowell, and the American people,” the fiery letter began.

“However, the Oversight Committee must not be used as a means to propagate false or deceptive information, and for that purpose, we must address public statements you have made that contradict facts and are, unfortunately, lies,” the letter added. 

The Republican members further pressed for a formal correction and a public apology from Raskin.

“The Committee requests that you formally correct the record and apologize to the American people for spreading disinformation about evidence collected by the Committee during its investigation of President Biden,” the letter read, spanning four pages. 

This rebuke follows Brady’s closed-door testimony, where he explicitly refuted Raskin’s assertion that the probe into the Biden family, including the alleged $10 million bribery bombshell, was terminated. 

“My understanding of Mr. Raskin’s public statements is that, based on the determination that I and my team found the allegations in the 1023 not credible or other information not credible, we did not escalate the assessment to a limited or full investigation. That’s not true,” Brady emphasized, as per the transcript reviewed by Just the News.

Hamas Spox Storms Out of Interview When Pressed About Barbaric Atrocities

Hamas Spox Storms Out of Interview When Pressed About Barbaric Atrocities

(Luis Cornelio, Headline USA) Ghazi Hamad, a deputy foreign minister of Hamas, stormed out of an interview with the BBC when pressed about the trail of horror left by the group’s terrorists in southern Israel on Oct. 7. 

The interview, conducted by BCC Middle East correspondent Hugo Bachega, turned heated when he questioned Ghazi about the approximately 1,400 individuals, including U.S. citizens, killed by Hamas terrorists.

“There was no command to kill any civilians,” Hamad alleged, echoing previous claims from the terror group that Gazans were at fault for the inhumane atrocities. Specifically, he resuscitated the Hamas talking point that the mass killing was the product of “clashes and confrontations” between Palestinians and Israeli citizens. 

Bachega pushed back against Hamad’s defense, which has been debunked by numerous outlets and mounting evidence. “It’s not a confrontation — you invaded houses,” Bachega said, to which Hamad replied, “I can tell you that we didn’t have any intention or decision to kill the civilians.” 

An undeterred Bachega pushed back, “How do you justify killing people as they sleep, families? How do you justify killing hundreds of people in …?” But Hamad interrupted the BBC journalist, proceeding to take off his microphone and throwing it on a nearby table. 

“I want to stop this interview,” Hamad declared, cowardly refusing to answer the questions. 

Hamad’s remarks echoed the claims by Khalil al-Hayya, a member of the Hamas Politburo stationed in Qatar, who told the New York Times that Gazans killed Israelis, not Hamas. 

 “Our issue is with the soldiers, the military people,” al-Hayya told the Times last week, claiming that Hamas’s armed wing, Qassam Brigades, was barred from harming civilians. 

The Beatles to Release a Final Song, with a Little Help from AI

The Beatles to Release a Final Song, with a Little Help from AI

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) The Beatles will release their final single on Thursday, Nov. 2,  a reworking of their 1978 song “Now and Then,” with a little help from artificial-intelligence-based music software, according to MSN.

The song came from a group of unreleased demos written by John Lennon, who was assassinated in 1980, permanently quelling hopes of a live reunion for the Fab Four after their acrimonious breakup.

Two of the tracks were reworked and released to the public in the mid-1990s by the surviving band members—Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr and George Harrison—although Harrison died of cancer in 2001, further limiting the possibility of any additional creative output despite the emergence of new technology.

Although the band was unable to use the “Now and Then” demo during the previous session for their Beatles Anthology reunion because Lennon’s piano didn’t fit with their ensemble arrangement, Harrison did lay down a guitar track for it.

It was Lord of the Rings director Peter Jackson who approached McCartney about using emerging audio technology to isolate the vocal track while working on a documentary series about the making of the band’s 1970 album Let It Be and the iconic rooftop concert that would be one of their last.

McCartney went on to use the technology to isolate Lennon’s vocals from that concert in order to perform a virtual duet with his slain creative partner during recent concerts.

The forthcoming single contains Harrison’s previously recorded guitar track alongside, new drums by Starr and bass by McCartney.

Giles Martin, son of longtime Beatles producer George Martin (who died in 2016), assisted with the production of the song, as well.

Backing vocals from other songs such as “Hey, There and Everywhere,” “Eleanor Rigby” and “Because,” are also featured.

“There it was, John’s voice, crystal clear. It’s quite emotional. And we all play on it, it’s a genuine Beatles recording,” said McCartney, announcing the new single. “In 2023 to still be working on Beatles music, and about to release a new song the public haven’t heard, I think it’s quite an exciting thing.”

The day before the release of the song, a 12 minute short film will be released explaining the origins of the idea for the final track and how the song was compiled.

“This is the last track, ever, that you’ll get the four Beatles on the track. John, Paul, George, and Ringo,” Starr said in a recent interview with the Associated Press.

However, the remaining members of the band—McCartney, 81, and Starr, 83—continue to released new projects, including remixes and expanded versions of their old albums, studio outtakes and other nostalgic historical bits for fans.

Stanford Pro-Hamas Group Demands Free Round-Trip Airfare to Gaza

Stanford Pro-Hamas Group Demands Free Round-Trip Airfare to Gaza

(Molly Bruns, Headline USA) Student activists at Stanford University demanded funding for flights to Gaza in order to “mourn properly,” along with several other demands.

Along with the flights, the ultimatum required that the university condemn Israel, that college officials call for a ceasefire between the embattled peoples and that the school send direct aid to Gaza, according to the Daily Caller.

The list—written and published by students of Palestinian descent—included “full round trip [flights] covered by University upon the signing of a ceasefire for students to visit their family and friends and grieve properly.”

The students also sought counseling by specialized trauma therapists for Palestinian refugees, free legal representation for students facing harassment on campus, academic accommodations from all professors for students affected by the situation and campus-wide hate speech alerts.

The students also demanded the university put together an “investigative committee to correct the directives, faculty and research initiatives contributing to subjugation of Palestinian people.”

This task force would fund projects such as water purification and rapid construction for refugee encampments, invite Palestinian scholars to the school for research and teaching opportunities, and identify the roots of Stanford’s “one-sided response.”

Students also demanded the school boycott Israeli brands, divest from Israeli companies and prohibit said companies from recruiting on Stanford’s campus.

“Without such actions, Stanford will remain an enabler of Israel’s ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people,” the missive concluded.

The students planned to hold the California campus hostage by performing a sit-in protest until their demands were met.

Several Twitter users argued that Stanford should compromise and simply provide one-way tickets to those students wishing to go visit an active warzone.

Universities across the nation faced backlash from pro-Palestine students after their responses to the recent attacks between Israel and Hamas.

Leftist students blamed Israel for restarting the feud, scaring away college donors and leaving colleges to deal with accusations of anti-Semitism.

58% of Adults (72% of Women) Likely to Wear a ‘Sexy’ Halloween Outfit

58% of Adults (72% of Women) Likely to Wear a ‘Sexy’ Halloween Outfit

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) A recent poll taken by a dating app suggests that adult Americans intend to dress up in “sexy” Halloween costumes at a strikingly high rates, the New York Post reported.

The poll, however, may be misleading. It was conducted by Pure, a dating app that promotes “one night stands,” seeks to combat “misconceptions” about “bi-sexuality,” and encourages “QTPOC,” or “Queer and Trans People of Color,” to live out their fantasies.

In sum, 58% out of the 2000 adults polled committed themselves to dressing up in something sexually appealing. The number was higher among women, 72% of whom said that they intend to dress up in such attire.

“Sexy and classy was my definite plan for Halloween,” said Pure CEO Olga Petrunina in a statement. “I went to a kinky party in Berlin, dressed in a latex outfit.”

Of course, those who use the Pure app are far more likely to engage in such things, meaning that the poll’s numbers may not be especially indicative of larger American trends.

But the phenomenon does appear to be trending upward, at least based on the availability of such outfits. The costume site Yandy, for instance, currently offers 1,776 “sexy” themed options, including sexy Ronald McDonald, sexy Scooby Doo, sexy construction-zone tape and a “Donna T.” getup inspired by everyone’s favorite GOP frontrunner.

Alas, it seems Halloween, which originated in the desire to honor all souls as a Christian feast, has transformed into a night wherein single adults look for a “turn-on” in their desperate attempts to “end the night with a fling,” according to Pure.

The self-described dating app “where anything goes” specializes in breaking up marriages, and, according to Anna Hintsyak, the company’s marketing manager in the U.S. and United Kingdom, it is “like Uber for dating—right here, right now.”

As one might suspect, two-thirds of the users are males.

For Hintsyak, however, Pure is superior to other sex-oriented dating apps because it is also woke.

“We stand for diversity and inclusivity, so when creating a profile, there are three genders to choose from (male, female, non-binary) and five sexual identities (heterosexual, queer, lesbian, bisexual, asexual),” she said.

Pro-Hamas Leftists Vandalize Tree of Life Synagogue Where Mass Shooting Occurred

(Jacob Bruns, Headline USA) Far-left radicals painted anti-Semitic graffiti on the Tree of Life synagogue five years after a mass shooting took place at the venue, the Washington Examiner reported.

The Pittsburgh synagogue shooting, which occured Oct. 27, 2018, led to the deaths of 11 people.

On Friday’s fifth anniversary, members woke up to “FREE PALESTINE” graffiti scrawled along the brickwork in front of the building.

The vandals also crossed out the word “Israel” in the synagogue’s “We Stand with Israel” sign, and replaced it with “Gaza.”

Rich Fitzgerald—an outgoing Democrat executive for Allegheny County who has lived for over 40 years in the “Squirrel Hill” neighborhood, where the school and synagogue are located—condemned the timing of the brazen hate crime.

“The day before the fifth anniversary of the deadliest anti-Semitic attack in this country’s history, it is beyond the pale that this type of thing would happen in this neighborhood,” he said.

He also accused the vandals of engaging in “intimidation,” noting that they were trying to “stoke fear in the community.”

The incident continued to demonstrate the rift that the Israel—Hamas conflict has wrought among those on the left.

Despite the high probability of the graffiti being the work of leftists, several Democrat politicians joined Fitzgerald in condemning it.

Sen. Bob Casey, D-Pa., said that he called school officials to offer his condolences.

“I just got off the phone with Dr. McCoy of Allderdice High School and Rabbi Myers from the Tree of Life to check in an offer my support,” he said. “This is a painful week for the Squirrel Hill neighborhood and the entire Jewish community in Pittsburgh. I stand with them, now and always.”

Casey was joined in his lament by fellow Sen. John Fetterman, D-Pa. who said that the only things that should be on the wall were the Israeli flag and photos of the Hamas kidnapping.

He also called the graffiti “reprehensible.”
