"Because Cruz has “authored and joined numerous amicus briefs to the U.S. Supreme Court that defend religious liberty for all — whether it be a Christian wedding, cake artist, a football coach, or even a preschool."
"As the election season draws to a close, one thing is increasingly clear: The Democrats are targeting Texas Republican Sen. Ted Cruz.
"And it’s time to rally for Ted.
"The race between Cruz and Democrat Colin Allred is, according to polls, close, with Cruz in the lead.
"But the real question here is: Why do the Democrats and Washington’s elites so despise Cruz? As his website makes plain, Cruz has been nothing if not devoted to serving his state. The site notes:
From the oil fields of West Texas, to the farm lands of the Panhandle, to the United States’ southern border and into space, Ted Cruz has been Texas’ leading fighter for over a decade. Since day one, creating jobs, defending freedom, and ensuring security have been Ted’s priorities. Ted has a proven record of standing up to any politician or special interest group to defend the Lone Star State. Delivering meaningful, bipartisan wins for Texas commerce and transportation, NASA, and more, Ted has worked for every Texan to keep Texas, Texas.
"But there’s more going on here than Cruz simply doing his job for Texas, and doing it well.
"The real problem that is driving Democrat Senate Leader Chuck Schumer crazy is that in addition to taking care of Texas, Ted Cruz is a seriously serious — and smart — conservative. And left-wing New Yorker Schumer and his allies cannot abide a seriously smart, decidedly principled, and more than capable conservative.

"2024 is shaping up to be one of the most bizarre elections we’ve ever seen. From Biden being ousted in a “soft coup” by his own party, to President Trump teaming up with RFK Jr. and Elon Musk, and Kamala Harris basically hijacking her precious “democracy” to try to steal the White House—it’s been a wild ride. But one of the most interesting aspects of this campaign has been Joe Biden’s reaction to it all. It’s starting to look like Biden is actively sabotaging Kamala Harris. I mean, he actually put on a MAGA hat the day after Kamala’s debate with President Trump. Then he stood in front of the White House press corps and said he and Harris were “singing from the same song sheet” at a time when Team Harris was desperately trying to distance themselves from Biden’s—and Kamala’s—failures.
"And if that wasn’t enough, while Kamala was trying to score political points by attacking Governor DeSantis during Hurricane Milton, Biden was praising the Florida Governor. So what’s really going on? Well, Newt Gingrich thinks he knows. He believes Joe and Jill have teamed up to undercut Harris—and he thinks he knows exactly why.
“We’re in the early stages of watching her collapse,” says @newtgingrich of Kamala Harris. “It’s just my hunch …. that sometime in the last two weeks, Joe and Jill looked at each other and thought, you know, wouldn’t it be a great legacy if Joe’s the only guy ever to beat Trump? And I think the stuff he’s done to undermine her in the last ten days is pretty amazing.” . . .
Let’s face it, Joe might be a mental midget suffering from senility, but he still has enough political savvy to know exactly what he’s doing for the 2024 election. This wasn’t a mistake. As Julie Kelly so artfully put it, Joe’s on a mission to prove that all the coup operators who tossed him aside like yesterday’s trash were dead wrong. That’s Joe’s top priority right now, and that Trump 2024 hat symbolized it perfectly.
WATCH: Jewish Grandmother, African Farmer, Jamaican Pothead: The Many Accents of Kamala Harris (freebeacon.com) "Vice President Kamala Harris often struggles to articulate a coherent thought, but she has demonstrated a remarkable knack for vocal transformation. Here are just a few of the accents Harris has adopted since taking office in 2021: Latino fisherman, Southern jazz queen, Florida church lady, Chicago community organizer, Jewish grandmother, African farmer, and Jamaican pothead.
"Most recently, Harris debuted a bizarre Eastern European accent during her friendly chat on Tuesday with former comedian Stephen Colbert. Colbert, a partisan liberal who raises money for Democrats, gave Harris another chance to answer a question she repeatedlyfumbledduring her friendly chat with the ladies ofThe View: What if anything would she do differently as president compared with Joe Biden?" . . .
Democratic politicians have a long history of using fake accents in an effort to relate to normal Americans.
🚨🚨 BREAKING NEWS : The UN wants this video to be removed from the internet, because it caught Hamas-UNRWA employee firing a guided missile from a UN school in Gaza. And they complain about killing of people in schools, hospitals and refugee camps! Follow us more news and facts.…
Let me explain to you the history of the Gaza Strip as clearly you have been misled by the lies and propaganda churned out by Hamas and swallowed hook, line and sinker by the main stream media and ignorant politicians.
When Israel was recognised as a State in 1948 EGYPT took control of the Gaza strip. In case you are unaware of this, Egypt is an independent Muslim country. So Egypt was in control of Gazan Muslims.
Egypt and Gaza share a border, so regardless of whether or not Gazans came into Israel (they did), they had no problem exiting and entering through Egypt. To say nothing of the fact that Gaza is on the Mediterranean Sea with a long coastline.
Egypt remained in control of Gaza until they and five other Arab countries decided to wipe Israel off the map in 1967. Unfortunately for them they failed.
Whilst Israel captured Gaza in 1967 they didn’t want it - but Egypt refused to take it back.
So a few thousand Israelis moved in alongside the Gazans/Palestinians and built State of the Art hothouses and other agricultural ventures which cost millions, which brought work for them and the Gazans.
When Hamas's people visit
The border with Egypt was of course still there, and hundreds of thousands of Gazans came into Israel to work.
In 2005 Israel pulled out of Gaza. That means all the Israelis, including of course many born there. they even dug up their dead. What they didn’t take were the State of the Art hothouses, now a thriving multi-million dollar enterprise.
The Gazans/Palestinians destroyed them in a single night.
Since 2005 hundreds of thousands of Gazans/Palestinians continued to come into work in Israel, whilst - after local elections - Hamas took over Gaza and sent thousands of missiles into Israel.
On October 7th 2023 Hamas sent three thousands evil terrorists into Israel to massacre, rape, butcher and behead innocent Israeli civilians. They also cruelly took hundreds of hostages, including babies, women, children, the sick and elderly.
It then emerged that in the time of a supposed “blockade” the Gazans/Palestinians had succeeded in obtaining enough concrete to build hundreds of miles of terror tunnels, equipped with enough supplies to sustain their “fighters” and had accrued enough weapons to still be attacking Israel and fighting the IDF more than ten months after the October 7th massacres.
So where exactly was this “jail” that was broken out of?
Here are some of the hostages the “brave freedom fighters” took captive. (Click on the pictures to see their innocent faces.)
Are they still alive? No-one knows. Not a single “humanitarian organisation” has made any contact. The UN is silent. The Red Cross is silent. Amnesty International is silent. The courts that deal with war crimes are silent.
. . .“As a result, the potential risk for fraud, waste, and abuse increases the longer a program remains open,” a DHS report concluded." . . .
"Although the Federal Emergency Management Agency told Congress last month that it had $4 billion in its Disaster Relief Fund, officials also warned that the Fund could have a shortfall of $6 billion by year’s end, a situation FEMA says could deteriorate in the aftermath of Hurricane Helene.
" 'While FEMA is expected to ask Congress for new money, budget experts note a surprising fact: FEMA is currently sitting on untapped reserves appropriated for past disasters stretching back decades.
" 'An August report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General noted that in 2022, FEMA “estimated that 847 disaster declarations with approximately $73 billion in unliquidated funds remained open.”
"Drilling down on that data, the OIG found that $8.3 billion of that total was for disasters declared in 2012 or earlier.
"Such developments are part of a larger pattern in which FEMA failed to close out specific grant programs “within a certain timeframe, known as the period of performance (POP),” according to the IG report. Those projects now represent billions in unliquidated appropriations that could potentially be returned to the DRF (Disaster Relief Fund).”
"These “unliquidated obligations” reflect the complex federal budgeting processes. Safeguards are important so that FEMA funding doesn’t become a slush fund that the agency can spend however it chooses, budget experts said, but the inability to tap unspent appropriations from long-ago crises complicates the agency’s ability to respond to immediate disasters." . . .
"And ultimately, we learn that Kamala would be a disaster as president from this picture, told in minute detail." . . .
. . ."We learn how Kamala, a ditz with ambitions from Canada, who pronounced her name many different ways during her lifetime, never bothered to register to vote until she was 29 years old, which would have been about the time she "dated" Willie Brown. That contrasts sharply to her claims of being an "activist" for various social causes from an early age. Activists don't skip registering to vote. But party girls often do.
"We learn about the significance of Willie Brown in San Francisco's politics, what he brought her, what she gained, the goodies she got and how he worked the system. We learn she never put in a day's work in her life, which would have gotten her fired from any real job, and how it sure as heck shows today. It was always all about the connections, not putting out the way other lawyers put out. That accumulated over her career, which is why we see her lack of confidence as a candidate today.
"We learn that she operated like Willie Brown, breaking every campaign law in the books to get elected, yet never paying a price because the political machine always protected her. In turn, when she started "winning" public office, she returned the favors by protecting all kinds of miscreants and criminals to keep her political masters happy. She had a thing against pro-life journalists, and a thing against free speech itself, which she is bound to destroy if she gets elected. She commited a lot of injustices against others for this habit, getting away with it every time, leading Harmeet to view her as simply a criminal." . . .
"In a recent video, Michigan governor Gretchen Whitmer, wearing a camouflage hat emblazoned with a Harris/Walz logo, fed Dorito chips to a kneeling left-wing media celebrity in what many consider a blasphemous parody of the Catholic Sacrament of Communion. Catholics believe that during the Mass, the bread and wine undergo a process called Transubstantiation in which they are changed into the Body and Blood of Jesus Christ. The bread, shaped into small discs called “hosts” are then distributed to the people who may receive them in the hand or on the tongue while standing or kneeling. Traditional Catholics prefer to receive on the tongue while they kneel.
"Watching a video of a virulently pro-abortion governor and celebrity mock this sacrament was deeply offensive to some Catholics. I say some, not many or all because a recent poll by The Associated Press-NORC Center for Public Affairs Research found that,
64 percent of U.S. Catholics (and 40 percent of Catholic Republicans) agreed that abortion should be legal in most or all cases, almost identical to the 65 percent of all adult Americans who held that view. Only 25 percent of evangelical Protestants held this view, putting Catholics closer to those with no religious affiliation at all (87 percent of whom said abortion should be legal in most or all case) than to their fellow Christians.
"If there’s a shred of a silver lining here at all it is that only 40% of Catholic Republicans hold that view. One would assume that the majority of those Catholics supporting abortion are Democrats or are unaffiliated." . . .
Such as barrio gang members for one example? And recall the baptism scene in The Godfather? I have met personally a number of cult members at my door who have previously been Catholics led on by those with a distorted Bible translation and no knowledge of true Scriptures to resist them. TD
“ 'Now, when she’s asked softball questions, she implodes, whether it’s The View, whether it’s 60 Minutes,” she said, hoping that former President Donald Trump will force them to release the full transcripts."
"The hype for Vice President Kamala Harris was “fake from the get-go,” and the mainstream media have been exposed as “sycophants and stenographers for the left” amid Harris’s collapse, Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY) said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday.
"“It was fake from the get-go, and not only is it exposing Kamala Harris”; it is exposing the media as “sycophants and stenographers for the left,” Stefanik said, referencing the lack of substance in Harris’s recent interviews.
"“They’ve lost tremendous, tremendous credibility. And let’s be honest: these are not tough interviews. These are softball interviews that if you’re running for Congress or you’re running for local office, you get tougher questions,” the House Republican Conference chair continued.
"“Now, when she’s asked softball questions, she implodes, whether it’s The View, whether it’s 60 Minutes,” she said, hoping that former President Donald Trump will force them to release the full transcripts.
" 'That’s one of the things I love about President Trump and this movement, is he is exposing this deep rot in the Deep State, working with mainstream media to try to pull one over the American people. But you know what? The American people are smart. They see through this. They see through the answer that Kamala Harris just gave on The View this week, saying there was nothing she would do differently,” she said, describing that as “abysmal and unacceptable.”
" 'Not only does she own Joe Biden’s crises; she created the crises in her positions as open borders czar, casting deciding votes in the Senate, etc. So again, this is something where the more people learn about Kamala Harris as a candidate, the less support she has,” Stefanik said, expressing hope that Harris continues to participate in these interviews." . . .
“Lampooning sacraments is not likely to win over Catholic voters… Or any other voting block. Or is there a Wiccan Doritos cult that I’m unaware of?” Arroyo added. Conservative commentator Tammy Bruce said, “I’m not even Catholic and I was disgusted.” Bruce went on to note that Whitmer and Plank went on to joke about “post term abortions.”
"A bizarre video featuring Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer(D) mocking the Catholic faith went viral on social media Thursday, offending Catholics and appalling just about everyone else.
"The short clip shows Whitmer placing a Doritos chip onto the tongue of kneeling lefty influencer Liz Plank, in an apparent attempt to mimic the Catholic sacrament of Holy Communion.
"As the lefty podcaster consumed the Dorito, Whitmer, clad in a camouflage Harris-Walz hat, stared at the camera with a weird, deadpan expression.“This video is abhorrent, and we are calling on @gretchenwhitmer to issue an apology for this offensive act,” the Catholic League posted on X. The Catholic League is a religious rights group founded by Bill Donahue in 1973.
" 'Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer insulted Catholics nationwide when she intentionally ridiculed the Eucharist in a video,” Donohue wrote in a statement.
" 'There is no way to understand this stunt other than as an expression of vintage anti-Catholic bigotry. Whitmer’s team, and her allies in the media, are trying to distort what she did,” he said.
"The disturbing clip, which was posted on Plank’s Instagram account, was an apparent reenactment of a TikTok meme in which people are seen feeding each other snacks and then staring awkwardly into the camera.
"Helen Hare, a spokeswoman for Whitmer, claimed critiques of the video are an attempt to distract from Democrat investments in the economy.
" 'The governor’s social media is well known for infusing her communications with pop culture,” Hare said in a statement. “This popular trend has been used by countless people, including Billie Eilish, Kylie Jenner, and Stephen Colbert, and the fact that people are paying attention to a video promoting President Biden’s CHIPS Act proves it’s working.”
"But as Donahue noted, none of the people in the other videos were kneeling." . . .
From the Michigan Catholic Conference:“The skit goes further than the viral online trend that inspired it, specifically imitating the posture and gestures of Catholics receiving the Holy Eucharist, in which we believe that Jesus Christ is truly present,”said Paul A. Long, Michigan Catholic Conference President and CEO.“It is not just distasteful or ‘strange;’ it is an all-too-familiar example of an elected official mocking religious persons and their practices. While dialogue on this issue with the governor’s office is appreciated, whether or not insulting Catholics and the Eucharist was the intent, it has had an offensive impact.
“People of this state and across the country have grown tired of and continue to express their alarm at the bar of civility and respect toward people of faith lowering by the day. Michigan is a religiously diverse state and includes thriving communities of Christian, Jewish, and Muslim believers. The time is now for those in public office, their handlers, and strategists to return a level of respect, civility, and appreciation for those who have found peace and fulfillment in life by worshiping God and serving their neighbor.” Go here to read about it.
“ 'There is no way to understand this stunt other than as an expression of vintage anti-Catholic bigotry,” Donohue wrote.
"The Whitmer team is lying when they say she is merely “mimicking a popular trend on social media where people are shown feeding each other,” he stated, and it is “easy to disprove.”
"The typical TikTok videos show one person sitting at a table, often in a restaurant, being fed—usually with a fork or spoon—by a friend.
“ 'None of them are kneeling. None of them are receiving food on the tongue,” Donohue noted.
“ 'What Whitmer did was to deride Holy Communion. There is no wiggle room for her to deny the obvious,” he added." . . .
"The Democrats’ strategy of shaming black men into pulling the lever for Harris will be about as effective as fighting a grizzly bear with a toothpick. Black men have valid reasons for questioning the Democratic Party, which has enjoyed their loyalty for decades without offering much in return."
"Former President Barack Obama stepped deep in it during recent remarks aimed at black men who are not planning to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in November. He and those defending him are getting pilloried on social media after he basically accused black men of being misogynists because they don’t want to support Harris at the ballot box.
"As cringeworthy as his remarks were, Obama showed why so many black Americans are giving up on Democrats.
"For those who haven’t heard, the former president was at a campaign event for Harris and took the opportunity to schoolmarm the millions of black men who don’t want to vote for the vice president. He argued that they should support her because she “grew up like you” and supposedly had the same struggles as many young black men who spent most of their middle-class childhoods in Canada getting a superior education.
"He then said that these individuals are “coming up with all kinds of reasons and excuses” not to vote for Harris. One of these reasons is a supposed mistrust of women.
"Because part of it makes me think -- and I'm speaking to men directly -- part of it makes me think that, well, you just aren't feeling the idea of having a woman as president, and you're coming up with other alternatives and other reasons for that."
"Obama then claimed the “women in our lives have been getting our backs this entire time” and that “When we get in trouble and the system isn’t working for us, they’re the ones out there marching and protesting.” . . .
Dems in Disarray as Backlash Against Barack Obama’s Lecture to Black Men Grows Louder. . ."It’s simple: The Democratic Party is setting Black men up to take the fall in case Vice President Harris fails to defeat former President Trump in November. It’s that simple. And it is an outrage that they are trying to pin this on Black men. If Harris loses, it will not be on Black men or any other group of voters. The fault will lie squarely with the candidate and the party she represents." . . .
"Others talked about how they were insulted over the fact that they seemed to be expected to ignore the last four years of absolute failures in leadership from the Biden-Harris administration. There are a lot of videos like this circulating on TikTok (language warning):"
