FCC Fast-Tracks George Soros Purchase of 220+ Radio Stations Before Election

  The Gateway Pundit | by Assistant Editor 

"Soros has funded the ‘defund the police’ movements on the left, as well as the caravans of illegal immigrants flooding into America. Soros has also been a generous donor to the movement to normalize transgender operations on children."

 "The mainstream media keeps saying that the 2024 presidential election is over and that Trump has already lost to Willie Brown’s mistress, Kamala Harris.

"So why is far-left billionaire George Soros trying to buy 220+ radio stations before the election, the Audacy radio network, reaching 165 million Americans?

"And why is the Federal Communications Commission allowing him to do it, in an unprecedented move?

The FCC just fast-tracked George Soros’ purchase of 220+ radio stations before November’s election.

The stations reach 165M Americans.

"FCC Commissioner Brendan Carr is bringing this to light in a House Oversight Committee last week, noting that it is a violation of the FCC’s most basic rules against monopoly interests.

"The New York Post first reported this pending Soros sale of a large portion of the nation’s radio stations.

"Soros will have control over 40 media markets after this deal goes through.

"Soros is a far-left megadonor, supporting efforts nationwide to support Democrats and fund destructive and divisive far-left social movements. Soros makes his money from currency speculation, including complex financial maneuvers that have resulted in the national bankruptcies of England in 1992, Thailand and Malaysia in 1997, Russia in 1998, and Indonesia in 1997-98." . . .

Joe Biden's disastrous legacy of crime at home and war abroad on full display in his final UN speech

 Michael Goodwin (nypost.com)  

"He tried to sneak Afghanistan into the memory lane mix, saying, “I was determined to end it, and I did,” before saying he thinks “every day” of the 13 service members who died in his chaotic withdrawal. As always, he ignores the inconvenient fact that every military leader warned him that the complete and sudden abandonment would be a disaster — and it was." 


"In 1980, the Boston Globe put a place-holding headline on an editorial about a speech by President Jimmy Carter. 

“ 'Mush from the wimp,” the headline read — and it appeared in more than 150,000 copies of the paper before editors caught their error and removed it. 

"I thought about that headline as I watched Joe Biden’s UN speech Tuesday.

"The similarities go far beyond another mushy speech from another wimpy president. 

"Biden now rivals Carter as the worst American president of the modern era — and maybe of all time. 

"Both men were one-term Democrats felled by inflation and disorder at home.

"On the global stage, they pursued policies that too often treated American power as a problem rather than a solution, and were rewarded with mayhem and murderous aggression. 

"There are differences, too, with Carter constrained by his faith-based moral imperatives, while Biden’s family got rich by selling his name to foreigners, some of them adversaries. ". . .

Nancy Pelosi's Husband Dumps Over $500K in Visa Stock Weeks Before DOJ's Antitrust Lawsuit

 The Gateway Pundit | by Jim Hᴏft

"In 2022, Paul Pelosi exercised $1 million to $5 million Alphabet call options before Democrats proposed a congressional stock trading ban. In the same year, Paul Pelosi sold all of his NVIDIA stock just one day before Congress was set to vote on a bill that would boost domestic production of semiconductors."


Nancy Pelosi’s husband, Paul Pelosi, dumped over $500,000 worth of Visa stock just weeks before the Department of Justice slapped the financial giant with an antitrust lawsuit, according to the New York Post.
"The timing couldn’t be more suspect. Visa, one of the most dominant players in the debit card market, is now facing charges of monopolizing the industry.
"The DOJ’s antitrust unit claims Visa has abused its market power, forcing financial tech companies to work with them while penalizing those who try to go with competitors.
"According to the press release:

According to the complaint, more than 60% of debit transactions in the United States run on Visa’s debit network, allowing it to charge over $7 billion in fees each year for processing those transactions.

The complaint further alleges that Visa illegally maintains its monopoly power by insulating itself from competition.

For example, Visa wields its dominance, enormous scale, and centrality to the debit ecosystem to impose a web of exclusionary agreements on merchants and banks. These agreements penalize Visa’s customers who route transactions to a different debit network or alternative payment system.

In so doing, the complaint alleges, Visa locks up debit volume, insulates itself from competition, and smothers smaller, lower-priced competitors.

Visa also induces would-be competitors to become partners instead of entering the market as competitors by offering generous monetary incentives and threatening punitive additional fees.

As the complaint alleges, Visa coopted the competition because it feared losing share, revenues, or being displaced by another debit network altogether.

"And what was Paul Pelosi doing while the DOJ built its case? Selling off massive chunks of Visa stock." . . .

NEW: Kamala Harris Using Soros-Funded Fake News Sites to Lie to Voters

 Bonchie – RedState  

"What does that say about Harris' confidence level as we enter the home stretch of this election? It certainly doesn't project confidence. A campaign that believes it's winning going away doesn't have to use fake news sites to promote false headlines about made-up endorsements. Yet, that's exactly what Harris is doing." 

"Surprise, surprise, Kamala Harris is using a network of fake news sites to help prop up her campaign and mislead voters about her level of support.

"On Monday, the official "Kamala HQ" account posted a headline that read "Polish Pennsylvanians Endorse Kamala Harris Over Putin, Ukraine Concerns." The source was a supposed news outlet named "The Keystone Newsroom." 

"What the Harris campaign was trying to do was clear. Local news outlets are typically more trusted than national outlets by the residents of a given state. By pushing a headline bragging about a major endorsement from "The Keystone Newsroom," an air of credibility is given to the claim. The truth of the matter is far more insidious, though. Greg Price did some digging and figured out how the money is flowing and who is coordinating with who.

"The game being played is simple. The Soros-funded "Courier Newsroom" starts a bunch of "local" news sites that are presented as completely unbiased and non-partisan. Those dark-money sites then publish positive headlines about Kamala Harris based on objectively false claims. In this case, the headline states that "Polish Pennsylvanians," a community of nearly 800,000 people, have endorsed her. The truth is that the "endorsement" was just a letter written by four Democrat politicians. At that point, the only thing left is for Harris' official campaign account to share the headline and pretend it's a huge win. 

"Is what they are doing illegal? No, but it's incredibly dishonest and unethical, and it shows just how astroturfed Harris' presidential run is. From the very beginning, everything undergirding her campaign has been fake, fake the glowing proclamations of "joy" from the mainstream press to the idea that she "won" an open primary, as proclaimed by Nancy Pelosi. 

Senate Unanimously Passes Bill Offering Trump Same Secret Service Protection As Biden

 After his SOTU and DNC diatribes against Trump Joe Biden (Or Jill?) will likely sign it with clenched teeth. As I suspect, did the ladies of the Squad. TD

Rebecca Downs (townhall.com) "Last Friday, as we covered at the time, the House unanimously passed a bill from Reps. Mike Lawler (R-NY) and Ritchie Torres (D-NY) to offer nominees for president and vice president the same U.S. Secret service protection as the sitting president and vice president. The Senate did so on Tuesday by unanimous consent in a move offered by Sens. Rick Scott (R-FL) and Tim Scott (R-SC)." . . .

How did they get The Squad to agree to protecting Trump?

The Squad (United States Congress)

. . ."Speaking about the bill that passed last Friday by a unanimous vote of 405-0, the senator continued by offering that such a vote "shows that when common sense and desperately needed legislation comes before Congress, we can act quickly to do what the American people expect us of."

"In asking for unanimous consent, Scott noted that passing his bill "sends an important message to the American public and the world that we will not ignore these threats, which are truly an attack on our Democratic process and have rightly shocked the world."

Just in time; somebody who listened to this MSNBC lady may decide to eliminate Trump! TD

Stephanie Ruhle's Shameless Slobbering Over Kamala Harris Pays Off Big for Her – RedState   Hear her for yourself . . ."Calling this pathetic would be an understatement. Kamala Harris wants to be President of the United States, yet she's picking interviewers based on how much they bend the knee to her. Ruhle is a joke of a "journalist" who has long done the bidding of Democrats on MSNBC. She isn't going to ask a single tough question because she's already told us she's not going to ask a single tough question, and that's all it took to secure an interview with Harris. 

"The incentives within the mainstream press are completely screwed up. The more a journalist goes soft on a Democrat, the more likely they are to gain access. On the flip side, the more a journalist acts like a partisan hack towards a Republican, the more likely they are to see elevation in their career. For proof of that, go watch ABC News' Linsey Davis at the presidential debate between Harris and Trump and then read the glowing reviews she received." . . .

How the Pentagon Betrayed President Trump on January 6

 Jack Cashill - American Thinker 

. . ."January 6, of course, proved to be a Reichstag moment, but in precisely the opposite way Milley suggested. Democratic Party leadership responded to the riot much the way the Nazi leadership responded to the Reichstag fire, namely using an event of ambiguous origin as pretext to suppress speech and imprison its political opponents." . . . 

. . . "In a September 20, 2024 press release, Loudermilk added further proof of Trump’s request for support: “The transcripts released [from the DoD IG report] show Trump gave senior Pentagon leadership directives to keep January 6 peaceful -- including using the National Guard -- which the Pentagon leaders ignored.” The release then quotes Loudermilk directly as saying, “Pentagon leadership prioritized concerns of optics over their duty to protect lives.”

"To make his case, Loudermilk shared some direct quotes from Milley and others. When interviewed by the Department of Defense’s inspector general in 2021, Milley quoted Trump as saying, “Hey, look at this. There’s going to be a large amount of protesters here on the 6th, make sure that you have sufficient National Guard or Soldiers to make sure it’s a safe event.” Again according to Milley, Trump added, “Hey, I don’t care if you use Guard, or Soldiers, active duty Soldiers, do whatever you have to do. Just make sure it’s safe.”

"Acting U.S. Secretary of Defense Christopher Miller also heard Trump’s say “that they were going to need 10,000 troops.” As Miller admitted in May 2021 at a Democrat-led House hearing, he did not check with President Trump after the riot started because he did not need to." . . .

Who knew that too many people would create a problem?

 Silvio Canto, Jr. - American Thinker   "Once upon a time, immigrants came into the U.S. in an orderly fashion. I think that they call that "immigration," a policy enforced by every country to control the chaos and disorder that happens with open borders.

"Well, enter the Biden-Harris approach and now we have chaos. Who knew that chaos would happen? The chaos extends to homelessness.  Let's check this out from the New York Post: . . .


. . ."Imagine El Paso or Eagle Pass? Why do you think that Governor Greg Abbott started bussing? The reason was twofold. First, sending them to sanctuary cities. Second, he was relieving pressure in the border cities.

"Who saw these problems coming? You bring millions into your country without a plan and you get an unplanned outcome? Who knew that? Well, we know now."

Israel: The UN should be ashamed

"Why would the UN – a global organization supposedly dedicated to furthering and maintaining worldwide peace – knowingly protect savage barbarians, whose sole aim is to control every person, forcing them to be subservient to a demonic ideology that demands allegiance to murderous thugs? I’m at a loss to comprehend this kind of depravity."  The Jerusalem Post

Kamala, what’s your plan for Iran? The Times of Israel   . . ."Harris owes it to the American people to tell us what her plan — vis-à-vis Iran — will be. Harris has expressed her support for a two-state solution numerous times and has said she will use the leverage the United States has as Israel’s primary provider of weapons to influence Israeli military policy. That’s pretty specific. But Harris has remained mum or spewed generalities concerning Iran. Does she believe that a Palestinian state can happen while Iran continues to preach the destruction of Israel while training and arming the likes of Hezbollah, Hamas, and the Houthi? If so, let us know how, because the defanging of Iran and progress in peace negotiations between Israel and the Palestinians are intimately connected. Would Harris allow Iran to become a nuclear power? The Biden administration has said it would not, but not much more. We need to hear from Harris: How far would she go to prevent a nuclear Iran?" . . .

The UN protects Hamas because it hates the Jewish people - The Jerusalem Post   "It didn’t come as a huge shock to read that Hamas warehouses in Gaza are full of stolen humanitarian aid.
"Considering that these warehouses are stored to the brim not only with goods but also food and medicine, it is unbelievable that Francesca Albanese, the UN special rapporteur on human rights for the Palestinian territories, can keep a straight face when she laments that there are shortages in Gaza, squarely blaming Israel for it.



With a reported 200 trucks entering Gaza daily, these supplies are packed into the Hamas warehouses, causing them to run out of space. 

You would think that this would be the lead story for all news services. Or, at least, a much-needed update should be given by the UN, which seems to be out of the loop or is deliberately pushing another version for the sole purpose of fomenting more hatred toward Israel, by casting blame on it.




Israel will continue to strike Hezbollah, Netanyahu says - The Jerusalem Post (jpost.com)    . . ."Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau on Tuesday called for a de-escalation, stating, ”We need to make sure that civilians are protected. The violence needs to stop.
“ 'We need to make sure there is de-escalation, both by Israel and Hezbollah. We need to protect civilian lives. We need to make sure we’re moving towards peace and stability in the entire region,” Trudeau added."

                                         Israel says "Never again!"


Sen. Coons goes off the rails and says people 'misremember’ how bad Trump’s economy was

 Jack Hellner - American Thinker  

"Biden and Harris ran on the policy to destroy industries that produce reasonably priced energy. As soon as Biden took office, he canceled the Keystone pipeline and blocked oil production on federal land." 

                 CNN

 "For years, Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, other Democrats (including many in the media) have intentionally lied to the public, insisting that they “inherited” a deep recession from President Trump and that their policies and high inflation were necessary to save America.

"The complicit media clearly has the capability to discern that this is a lie, but they facilitate in the dissemination of this misinformation because all they care about is destroying Trump and other Republicans, no matter how many lies they have to tell.

Here, Senator Coons is lying when he says people “misremember” how strong the economic recovery has been, via Breitbart:

Harris Co-Chair: People ‘Misremember’ How ‘Strong’ Our Recovery Has Been

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s ‘Squawk Box,’ Harris-Walz Co-Chair Sen. Chris Coons (D-DE) stated that if you ask people if they’re better off than they were four years ago, ‘many Americans misremember just how bad the economy was four years ago and how strong our economic recovery from the pandemic has been.’

Coons said, ‘Americans, when you ask the question, are you better off today than you were four years ago, many Americans misremember just how bad the economy was four years ago and how strong our economic recovery from the pandemic has been. And, next year, the biggest fight’s going to be over taxes.[’]
