So I'm not the only man who doesn't get Kamala
By Silvio Canto, Jr.
Harris is a shallow woman who can't answer deep questions.
That's her problem, not her gender.
On Sunday, Andrea Mitchell of NBC sort of broke the news.
Here is the story:
NBC News chief Washington correspondent Andrea Mitchell said Sunday on “Meet the Press” that Vice President Kamala Harris has to “double down” on doing serious interviews because she is not polling well with male voters.
Mitchell said, “They have to double down on doing more interviews and serious interviews because what I’m hearing from Democratic and Republican business people and a lot of men. She has such a big problem with men. I think there’s an undercount of the Trump vote. I think there’s misogyny in all of this, black and white men, big problem.”
She added, “Also, in the business world, they don’t think she is serious. They don’t think she’s a heavyweight. A lot of this is gender, but she’s got to be more specific about her economic plans.”
Get serious, girl, or something like that.
Mitchell had to add that this has something to do with her gender or reference to men not being comfortable with a woman president.
As a man, I don't buy that. Two of the greatest leaders of my lifetime were women, Golda Meir of Israel and Margaret Thatcher of the U.K. No one had any doubts about their seriousness.
VP Harris doesn't fit the Thatcher or Meir model.
Harris is a shallow woman who can't answer deep questions.
That's her problem, not her gender.
Will VP Harris start doing serious interviews?
Probably not because she can't be serious.

FEMA is what happens when your genitalia become your moral compass
By Andrea Widburg
within FEMA itself the agency employees no longer care about ordinary Americans facing extraordinary circumstances. Instead, genital equity is the rule of the day.
In fiscal year 2023, Congress allocated $29.5 billion to FEMA. You’d think that’s a lot of money, and you’d be right. However, even as FEMA has been granted massive amounts of funds for illegal aliens through Customs and Border Patrol, it’s managed to run out of money for ordinary Americans facing terrible disasters. Now, we’re learning that FEMA employees are doing more allocations, this time based on what I can only call “genital equity.” (I scorn the phrase “gender equity.”) That is, FEMA employees aren’t concerned with the greatest good for the greatest number during an emergency. They’re concerned with the LGBTQ+ crowd.
Two videos illustrate what’s going on. The first is from a FEMA Disaster Preparedness meeting which took place on an unknown date (that is, I don’t know if the speakers are discussing the current disaster or just any disaster):

DISTURBING: Helicopter With Pilots Wearing ‘Military Headgear’ Sabotages Hurricane Helene Recovery Supplies at NC Distribution Site – Cajun Navy Confirms (VIDEO)
by Cullen Linebarger Oct. 8, 2024 10:45 am
Volunteers in one tiny North Carolina town have revealed a disturbing incident that unfolded Sunday night as the region tries to recover from Hurricane Helene.
Videos have emerged on social media showing an unidentified helicopter with pilots wearing military-style headgear sabotaging direly needed supplies at a United Cajun Navy distribution site in Burnsville despite volunteers in a seemingly deliberate act of sabotage despite volunteers allegedly designating the area as a “no-fly, no drop” zone just hours before.
TikTok user @megsnbacn claimed that the chopper flew in just after 7 p.m. while she was conducting a K9 Security round. She stated that the helicopter did not belong to any of them and was unmarked, which is illegal.
She also stated that 45 minutes before the aircraft arrived, two unidentified SUVs showed up, did a “slow roll” at the entrance of the parking lot, and fled the area. The SUVs, too, did not belong to the volunteers.
Here is how her complete allegation:
This evening at approximately 7:18 in Burnsville NC an unmarked helicopter flew in and attempted to destroy the distribution area that was set up by locals for locals while I was conducting a K9 Security Round. The majority of our security teams were off-site re-supplying helos at the DESIGNATED HL zone. THIS WAS NOT ONE OF OUR HELOS!
This was about 45 minutes after 2 unmarked black SUVS and a side-by-side did a slow roll at the entrance of our parking lot and left. Neither the SUVS nor the unmarked helo were any of our points of contacts.
Local LE did not know about them after they responded to the scene shortly after the helo left. It was UNMARKED and it is illegal to fly unmarked helicopters. But we know SF can and does and we know some private contractors do (not sure the legalities on that though)…. So who were they? Why were they here? Why were they masked up? I’ve done plenty of helo ops with Coast Guard helos, and I know a practiced rotor wash when I see it, and our pilots never masked up this way.

Brian Trascher, the Vice President and Public Information Officer for the United Cajun Navy, told RedState.com in a phone interview that the unmarked helicopter was likely a UH60 standard Blackhawk, and the pilots were wearing military headgear. The organization came to the conclusion after analyzing the videos and speaking with eyewitnesses.
“Yeah, it takes two pilots to fly,” Trascher explained to RedState.com. “One of those things, and both were wearing standard DOD gear, the headgear.”
Trascher said the United Cajun Navy is continuing to investigate the incident and identify the culprit.

FEMA goons bamboozled by road closures so they turn around and call it a day
By Olivia Murray
It’s hard to pick the “worst” federal agency—is it the one that bleeds you dry of your hard-earned money at the barrel of a gun? The one that raids your farm and destroys your raw milk products just to show you who’s boss? The one that kicks your door, holds your children at gunpoint, and then shoots you because you had a pistol brace attached to a pistol, all because you missed the unconstitutional memo from Steve Dettelbach saying pistol braces are now illegal, despite no law saying so? The one that spies on and targets you because you spoke up at a school board? Or, is the one that doles out your stolen money to pamper illegal aliens then abandon you and tell you to take a hike?
On par with former Secret Service director Kimberly Cheatle suggesting the reason that she left the rooftop from which President Trump took a sniper’s bullet unsecured was because it was a slightly sloped surface and she wouldn’t want her agents to get hurt comes this little gem of incompetence from the federal government: FEMA agents found themselves bamboozled by the road closures in the wake of Hurricane Helene, so they called it a day, aborted the mission, and left the people of Bat Cave, North Carolina to fend for themselves.
Here’s the story, from an exclusive report at the New York Post:
Residents of a tiny North Carolina town that was almost totally destroyed by Hurricane Helene have been fending for themselves after FEMA told them that a ‘Road Closed’ sign is an insurmountable obstacle for the agency to navigate.
‘FEMA called me and told me they wanted to inspect my house, then called me back to say they couldn’t drive around the ‘Road Closed’ sign. They weren’t allowed,’ local Chelsea Atkins, 38, told The Post.
I mean, a hurricane just ravaged the landscape, and it’s a very precarious situation; we wouldn’t want anyone to get hurt on the job now would we?
I’m left wondering: Does a “Road Closed” sign repel all federal agents, or are they just kryptonite for FEMA goons? Do they work on the ATF? What about the IRS? USDA? FDA? Can we just prop up road closure sandwich boards across the U.S. and finally free ourselves from the burden of a burdensome and loathsome federal government? Seems like we may have stumbled onto some invaluable information….
While I certainly believe many of the events in the aftermath of Helene are intentional to destroy two swing states whose electoral votes were likely going to President Trump, I chalk this up to profound incompetence, and a civic culture of staggering self-interest. Civil service is not supposed to be a cushy career—it’s ostensibly about serving others, something of which the American government has completely lost sight—but under an ever-bigger progressive government, self-service is what it’s become. People seek employment with the bureaucracy not because they want to help others, but because it means good pay, tons of time off, almost no accountability, zero worry about layoffs due to market fluctuations, and a hefty set of perks, like insurance and retirement.
There are over 400 unconstitutional agencies, and like figs are not gathered from thorns nor grapes from bramble bushes, so too prosperity and freedom cannot be reaped from selfishness and lawlessness.
It’s hard to pick the “worst” federal agency—is it the one that bleeds you dry of your hard-earned money at the barrel of a gun? The one that raids your farm and destroys your raw milk products just to show you who’s boss?

Biden Touts Infrastructure – What Does That Even Mean?
The president will crow about his bill, but there is very little to show for the billions spent.
by Andrew Moran | Oct 8, 2024
President Joe Biden will visit Milwaukee, WI, today (Oct. 8) to highlight the administration’s infrastructure campaign, nearly three years since the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act was signed into law. Biden is expected to champion the White House’s march to replacing lead pipes and creating jobs. Like other facets of Washington’s pursuit to build or rebuild America’s infrastructure, the government has slapped lofty timelines and expensive price tags. Progress will be key as the president’s efforts routinely generate negative publicity.
Biden Infrastructure — A Primer
In November 2021, Biden signed the $1 trillion Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act, one of three landmark legislative initiatives under the current administration. The enormous domestic spending bill aimed to channel billions of dollars to states and local governments to build or upgrade bridges, broadband internet connections, roads, and public transportation systems. The legislation, which was championed as a bipartisan effort because it attracted just 13 House Republicans and 19 Senate GOP lawmakers, also prioritized anything related to green energy.
Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris also promised that the infrastructure law would create “millions” of jobs. However, the White House had to quickly clarify and confirm that officials were referring to “job years.” A job year equals one job for one year. If an individual is employed at a new job for two years, it would equal two job years rather than one.
“My message to the American people is this: America is moving again, and your life is going to change for the better,” Biden said in a South Lawn ceremony.
Three years later, has the administration delivered on its pledge to revitalize the nation’s infrastructure? Washington would claim it has been a resounding success because of all the state and local government applications to receive federal funds. Of course, any cash-strapped jurisdiction’s governor or mayor – Republican or Democrat – would undoubtedly tap free money from Congress for the opportunity to host a ribbon-cutting ceremony. So, results would make a better assessment
EV Charging Stations
In June, Liberty Nation News reported on internal Department of Transportation (DoT) memos obtained from the Washington Free Beacon that confirmed “only seven or eight” electric vehicle charging stations had been installed. The Biden administration’s goal was to construct half a million charging stations by 2030, relying on $5 billion through the National Electric Vehicle Infrastructure (NEVI) program and $2.5 billion in Charging and Fueling Infrastructure (CFI) discretionary grant funding.
US government officials and left-leaning think tanks have attributed the sluggish building pace to various reasons, from complicated federal and state regulations to climate change. But a senior Transportation Department staff member, speaking on the condition of anonymity, told the Free Beacon that equity requirements “are screwing everything up. It’s all a mess.”
Administration officials have since tried to shrug off the abysmal number by announcing $521 million in grants to continue expanding the nation’s EV charging network. “Charging infrastructure is being built in rural, suburban, urban, and Tribal communities alike, supplementing private investment and filling critical gaps where charging is needed most,” the DoT said in an August press release.
Got Internet?
Inside the bipartisan infrastructure law was the Broadband Equity Access and Deployment (BEAD) program. This contained approximately $42 billion in federal funds “to connect everyone in America to reliable, affordable high-speed internet by the end of the decade.” While the Department of Commerce and its National Telecommunications and Information Administration (NTIA) are tasked with distributing BEAD funds, reports suggest that neither a single business nor household has been plugged in as part of the US government’s initiative.
This past spring, NTIA Administrator Alan Davidson confirmed to Congress that “this is really a 2025, 2026, shovels in the ground project.” Lawmakers say the president’s ambitious pursuit is hampered by the NTIA’s mountain of red tape and woke-minded commands.
In an April 2023 letter to Davidson, a chorus of GOP senators noted that regulations and mandates “would discourage participation from broadband providers while increasing the overall cost of building out broadband networks.” Upper chamber Republican officials alluded to a range of requirements, such as hiring “individuals with past criminal records” and “justice-impacted participants.”
So far, they are right. Telecommunications industry representatives told MinnPost in June that they had little interest in applying for the $652 million from Minnesota’s BEAD grants. Brent Christensen, president and CEO of Minnesota Telecom Alliance, told the newspaper: “None of them would bid for the federal grants because of the regulations that would come with it — especially the requirement to provide low-cost services to low-income households in exchange for grants that would allow internet providers to build out their networks.”
Well, at least the private sector is doing a great job in extending broadband internet access. Reports from the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) or OpenVault Broadband Insights suggest that most Americans already have access to broadband internet and enjoy at least 100 Mbps download speeds. If the US government actually wanted to succeed, it would have spent $42 billion to purchase Elon Musk’s Starlink dishes for 140 million individuals!
Everything Is Infrastructure
Are childcare programs infrastructure? Is minority business development infrastructure? Is turning school buses into electric vehicles infrastructure? Indeed, the law redefines the conventional yardsticks of what constitutes infrastructure. The New York Times contended three years ago that Biden’s plan “is a radical reimagining of what infrastructure means.” And yet, as federal intervention in the childcare industry receives bipartisan support, the infrastructure package has not accomplished the goal of lower costs: According to the August Consumer Price Index report, daycare costs surged more than 6% from August 2023. It appears the government cannot even get non-infrastructure infrastructure spending right.

Hurricane Milton, a Lack of Leadership, and Election 2024
Milton may turn out to be the real October surprise.
by Leesa K. Donner | Oct 8, 2024
“[H]eartlanders are deploying whatever resources they must to help their neighbors.” Meanwhile, hurricane survivors continue to hang on for the broke and illusive organization that could easily be dubbed the Federal Emergency Migrant Assistance program – the all-new FEMA.
The Gulf Coast of Florida is bracing for what is being billed as an historic weather event as Hurricane Milton strengthens to a Category 5 storm with winds up to 150 mph. Coming on the heels of Hurricane Helene – which has devastated parts of Georgia and North Carolina – Milton may just be the defining moment of Election 2024. After all, what is the government’s purpose if it does not come to the aid of its citizens in moments of hardship? Right now, a lot of Americans are hurting, and when Milton makes landfall tomorrow (Oct. 9), more people will be in desperate need of help. Will the Biden-Harris administration step up to the plate? If the response to Helene is a harbinger of things to come, it’s unlikely.
The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s (FEMA) ineffectiveness has been a cornerstone of criticism regarding the lack of aid to people suffering in the aftermath of Helene. Yesterday (Oct. 7) on Fox & Friends, GOP vice presidential candidate JD Vance suggested the federal government’s poor response was due to a lack of leadership: “I think the fundamental mistake the Kamala Harris administration has made here … was that from the get-go you should have imposed military-style command and control.”
Vance asserted that an organized military approach would have cut back on the red tape and delivered goods and services to those most in need in a targeted fashion. Helicopter and airplane landings could have been coordinated, as well as food and water distributions. As it is, he said, “The problem here, I really believe, is it’s like the DMV [Department of Motor Vehicles] at industrial scale, and because of it, a lot of folks in North Carolina are suffering unnecessarily.”
Thus far, FEMA has been in the eye of the poor response storm, and those affected by the first hurricane are hopping mad about it. Residents of the two states have been begging for government assistance. However, it appears that those stepping up are private organizations and community relief efforts. As Liberty Nation’s Sarah Cowgill reported, “[H]eartlanders are deploying whatever resources they must to help their neighbors.” Meanwhile, hurricane survivors continue to hang on for the broke and illusive organization that could easily be dubbed the Federal Emergency Migrant Assistance program – the all-new FEMA.
On Fox, Will Cain asked Vance how he and former President Donald Trump would put Americans first in this situation:
“[T]he fundamental point [is] that the Biden Harris administration has turned FEMA effectively into an agency that helps to resettle and helps to deal with illegal immigration. That is just fundamentally going to distract focus from their core job of helping American citizens in their time of need. “
However, FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell vociferously disagreed with the Republican assertion that FEMA has used its funds for the illegal migrant population. USA Today quoted Criswell’s interview on ABC’s This Week news program:
“Criswell defended FEMA’s response and shot down Trump’s claims that the agency is short on disaster relief funds because money has been diverted to help undocumented immigrants and that help is being withheld from Republican areas, calling such assertions ‘frankly ridiculous and just plain false.’”
Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) made an effort to clear up the matter on Fox News Sunday. “The streams of funding are different, that is not an untrue statement, of course.” But the Biden-Harris administration, under the direction of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas, has been putting federal money toward the resettlement of those who have crossed the border illegally. Johnson added, “That’s what the Biden administration, Kamala Harris and Secretary Mayorkas have been engaged in.”
The Federal Emergency Management Agency’s mission is to help people in times of natural disaster, and whatever the reason its response has been neither timely nor well-coordinated.

No matter which cache of federal funds was used, those whose homes and lives have been destroyed by Helene and those who will suffer the same fate when Hurricane Milton lands likely don’t care. What concerns them is Mayorkas’ statement that FEMA is broke. Meanwhile, yesterday (Oct. 7), “[T]he Inspector General for Homeland Security released a report saying FEMA is sitting on at least $8.3 billion in untapped, unspent funds.”
While this political game of verbal gotcha takes place, hurricane victims are left holding the bag. Fortunately, Sunshine State residents have Gov. Ron DeSantis as their failsafe. DeSantis has proven to be a tried-and-tested leader when it comes to dealing with hurricanes. And it could be said that leadership – even more than money — appears to be what is sorely lacking in this challenging time.
But make no mistake: These unplanned events will affect the upcoming election as thousands of people are likely to express their displeasure with those who didn’t step up to assist their fellow Americans when they were in desperate need.

At a gas station, now. Just filled up two- five gallon containers with diesel- the only grade left.
Gov. DeSantis is on top of this. Not like Biden on Delaware Beach and Harris at her swank LA fundraiser.
Fmr Pres. Trump has taken on the aura of already being the President, with Biden fruit loops and Harris crackers.
Good night all. Really enjoy reading everyone's posts.
ch.. thanks for this. One of my future things i want to learn more of....right now reading up on JFK assassination.

“The Deep State Party will put up ‘Republican Candidates’ that ARE NOT MAGA PEOPLE, and we want MAGA, NOT Republicans so you can’t vote a straight Republican ticket. You are going to have to know which candidates are MAGA to make your vote count, it’s as simple as that.”
“So, know your candidates, right?”
“You have to know who you’re voting for, or should I say you have to know what you’re voting for: the Deep State or the Constitution (MAGA).”
