WATCH: CNN Host FACEPALMS When Former Harris Official Says This…

On Tuesday, CNN’s senior political commentator Scott Jennings was seen placing his face in his hands in response to remarks made by Jamal Simmons, the former communications director for Vice President Kamala Harris. Simmons claimed that former President Donald Trump had lost his first presidential debate of 2024. Trump faced President Joe Biden on June 27, and Biden’s lackluster performance prompted significant public pressure for him to withdraw from the reelection race, which he ultimately did on July 21. During his appearance on “CNN News Central,” Simmons argued that Trump’s defeat in the debate was due to the Democrats substituting Biden with Harris, whom he characterized as a more formidable candidate.

“Look, Trump right now is zero for one when it comes to debates, right? Like he may think that he won that debate, but it might be that he actually lost the war because of that debate,” Simmons said. “Because after that debate, Joe Biden left. And when Joe Biden left, he ended up with Kamala Harris, so he should be careful.”

Jennings expressed disbelief and amusement as he facepalmed upon hearing Simmons assert that Trump had lost the debate.

“Zero for one? Jamal, Jamal, my brother and colleague … He literally ran a man who’d been in politics for 52 years out of his chosen profession over a debate,” Jennings said. “I mean, look, I understand what you’re arguing, that you all traded in for a better candidate, but Trump won the debate. He is not zero for one. Are you saying he actually did so well that he did badly?”

“This is exactly the problem with campaigns. Very often people are focused on the minutiae of what it means in this tack or that tack,” Simmons answered. “But the question is, are you winning the fundamental argument? And for right now, Donald Trump may have tactically won the debate, but strategically, it may have cost him the entire election, because he ended up with a much better candidate than the one he was aiming for. And he’s probably now a couple of points behind.”

Breaking: Beyonce Goes After Donald Trump

Pop icon Beyoncé has allegedly threatened to pursue legal action regarding the use of her song “Freedom” in a campaign video by the Donald Trump campaign.

On Tuesday, Steven Cheung, a spokesperson for Trump, shared a brief video on his X account showing Trump disembarking from his aircraft, accompanied by Beyoncé’s song. However, a source close to Beyoncé reportedly informed Rolling Stone that the artist promptly reached out to the Trump campaign, indicating her intention to file a lawsuit.

Cheung subsequently removed the video featuring the song late on Wednesday. Neither Beyoncé nor the Trump campaign has issued any public comments concerning the incident.

This situation marks yet another instance of an artist threatening legal action against Trump for the unauthorized use of their music. This month, the family of the late singer Isaac Hayes has requested that Donald Trump’s campaign cease the use of his 1996 song, “Hold On, I’m Coming,” originally performed by the duo Sam & Dave.

Additionally, Canadian singer Celine Dion criticized the Trump campaign for utilizing her song, “My Heart Will Go On,” without authorization during a rally in Montana.

In the previous 2020 campaign, the rock band The Rolling Stones also demanded that Trump refrain from using their music after their 1969 hit, “You Can’t Always Get What You Want,” was played at a rally in Tulsa.

Other artists, including the estate of Sinéad O’Connor, singer Pharrell Williams, and rocker Steven Tyler, have similarly threatened legal action regarding the unauthorized use of their music.

Tim Walz Caught Lying About His Background AGAIN

Tim Walz, the Democratic vice-presidential candidate and Governor of Minnesota, has been reported to have exaggerated his credentials and misrepresented the involvement of Harvard University in a teaching program in China that he participated in. According to a recent investigation by the Washington Free Beacon, Walz falsely asserted that he was recognized as the “Outstanding Young Nebraskan” by the Nebraska Chamber of Commerce and suggested that Harvard was responsible for selecting him for a teaching opportunity in China through a university program. The program, known as WorldTeach, was established in 1986 by several Harvard alumni, as indicated on the organization’s LinkedIn profile.

These inaccuracies were found in an archived version of his campaign biography from 2006, during his congressional run. This revelation follows previous instances where Walz made misleading claims, including assertions regarding his children’s conception through in vitro fertilization (IVF), his experience carrying weapons in combat, and his military rank, stating he retired as a “command sergeant major” when he actually retired as a Master Sergeant.

“With his teaching degree complete, Harvard University offered Walz an opportunity to gain a new perspective on global education by teaching in the People’s Republic of China,” Walz’s biography on the archived website says. “Working in China during 1989-1990, Walz was a member of one of the first government sanctioned groups of American educators to teach in Chinese high schools.”

The publication observed that Walz’s congressional biography reportedly contained similar statements, and that a biography from 2018 seemingly suggested that Walz had been involved in teaching in China via the WorldTeach program, which is affiliated with Harvard University:

“The program in question is the WorldTeach program, a nonprofit founded by Harvard undergraduates, including the Nobel Prize-winning economist Michael Kremer, in 1986. For a time, the program was funded by Harvard’s Phillips Brooks House Association, which the Harvard Crimson has characterized as “a student-run community service group” that disburses resources to an array of nonprofit organizations and facilitates volunteerism for Harvard students. WorldTeach, which is currently dormant, does not appear to have ever been an official program of Harvard.”

Watch: Sean Hannity TEARS Into Top Dem On Live TV

Democratic strategist James Carville provided a defense of the Biden administration’s border policy on Friday in a one-on-one interview with Fox News host Sean Hannity.

The conversation expanded into a wider discourse on national security and accountability. Hannity challenged Carville with emotionally charged questions regarding the families of victims impacted by crimes perpetrated by undocumented immigrants, citing particular cases.

“What do you say to Laken Riley’s family? What do you say to Rachel Moore and the mother of five’s family? What do you say to Jocelyn Nungarry’s family? I interviewed her mom and her granddad on my program right here,” Hannity asked Carville.

“I would have great difficulties. Anyone have great difficulty telling the parents in Uvalde, how are your children slaughtered with a legal weapon that no one has any need to have,” Carville responded. “You’re changing the topic,” Hannity interjected.

“The border had nothing to do with this. Please fact check me. Please fact check me. The border had nothing to do with these mass shootings, with these AR -15s. We all have difficult questions that we have to ask. Anybody can say that. We can sit in the peanut gallery and throw peanuts,” Carville explained.

“I think border crossings right now are about the same as they were when President Biden took office. Was that, I think ineffective border policy at one time? Yes, because they did what I said, you showed me saying at the beginning of the show. When you listen to these quote, identity progressive left -wingers, it’s always gonna lead, it always leads to bad policy. But right now, when you look at Senator Langford and Senator Murphy’s plan, that was negotiated and Donald Trump killed it.”

The atmosphere of the exchange became increasingly strained as Hannity probed into the achievements of Vice President Kamala Harris, prompting Carville to defend her position within the administration while remaining focused on the subject at hand.

“It’s demonstrably better off than it was four years ago. Look at employment rate four years ago. Look at the stock market four years ago, look at the crime rate four years ago. Are you kidding me?” Carville explained. “I’m giving you very specific metrics to look at — if you ask me is the country better off the date and it was four years ago my answer is heck yeah all right. Period, end of story, that’s James Carville’s view.”

Gavin Newsom Accidentally Says The Quiet Part Out Loud

California Governor Gavin Newsom, a member of the Democratic Party, shared a light-hearted moment on Friday as he humorously suggested that Democrats orchestrated a coup resulting in President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the 2024 election.

Just one month prior to Vice President Kamala Harris’s nomination speech at the Democratic National Convention, Biden announced his decision to forgo reelection and subsequently endorsed Harris. Various news sources indicated that prominent Democrats, including House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, and former President Barack Obama, had privately encouraged Biden to step down following a lackluster debate performance on June 27.

During an episode of Pod Save America at the DNC, Newsom wittily remarked to hosts Jon Favreau, Dan Pfeiffer, and Tommy Vietor that the process of replacing Biden with Harris was conducted in a “very open” manner.

“How are you feeling about the switch?” Favreau asked Newsom

“The switch? You know, we went through a very open process, a very inclusive process. It was bottom-up. I don’t know if you know that” he said with laughter. “Yes, that’s what I’ve been told to say.”

The former Obama staffers hosting the podcast giggled as they joked that it was a “blitz” or “blink” primary.

“Yes, it was a blitz primary, I believe it’s what they called it,” Favreau quipped.

“A very, very fast blitz,” Pfeiffer seconded. “It was a blink primary, that’s what you call that.”

Something STRANGE Fell Off Of Nancy Pelosi’s Pants Leg On Stage…

A square white item was observed to drop from House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s pant leg as she made her way onto the stage at the Democratic National Convention (DNC) on Wednesday evening.

As Pelosi greeted the audience upon her arrival at the DNC stage, she was set to present her speech in support of Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris. During her entrance, an unidentified white object that appeared to be toilet paper slipped off her pant leg, prompting Pelosi to momentarily look down at it.

Aside from ABC News, traditional media outlets omitted the potentially awkward moment, as reported by the news site Not the Bee. Pelosi went on to express her endorsement of Harris, stating that the Democratic presidential nominee “is perceptive and strategic in navigating challenging elections, swiftly obtaining the nomination with dignity and grace while selecting Tim Walz as our vice president,” according to the entertainment magazine Deadline.

Top Democrat RESIGNS

Multiple outlets reported that Democratic New Jersey Senator Bob Menendez resigned his seat in the Senate on Tuesday, according to multiple outlets. Following his conviction in a corruption case involving three New Jersey businessmen and the Egyptian government, the Senate Democrat announced his resignation. Gov. Phil Murphy has indicated that he will replace Menendez with George S. Helmy, a healthcare executive and his former chief of staff.

The Associated Press reported that a federal court found Menendez guilty of taking actions that would benefit the Egyptian government in exchange for bribes, including writing a letter to his fellow senators advocating for sending military aid to Egypt and providing the foreign government with personnel data related to the U.S. embassy in Cairo. Federal authorities found over $100,000 worth of gold bars and $480,000 in cash hidden in the senator’s home. Federal authorities also found over $100,000 worth of gold bars and $480,000 in cash.

After his conviction, Menendez said that he was deeply disappointed by the jury’s decision and that he would be moving forward with an appeal. Menendez said he has always been a patriot and has never been a foreign agent. The Democrat’s resignation comes after sources told the New York Post that he was negotiating a pardon with President Joe Biden in exchange for dropping out of the Senate race.

“He’s likely trying to get a pardon or a reduction in his sentence,” an anonymous New Jersey political operative told the Post. “Bob Menendez doesn’t do things without getting something back, and at this point I would think he would want to get out of the way to spare his kids the embarrassment, and maybe even help his wife.”

The Post reports that Menendez’s sentence in October could see him face upwards of two hundred years behind bars. Menendez was convicted of helping one person who bribed him get a multimillion-dollar investment deal with a Qatari fund and another secure a contract to provide religious certification services for meat to be exported to Egypt.

Harris Campaign Suffers EMBARRASSING Mixup

Over the weekend, Vice President Kamala Harris visited a convenience store in Pennsylvania, which the Biden-Harris administration had filed a lawsuit against in April for purportedly implementing discriminatory hiring practices.

Accompanied by her running mate, Democratic Governor Tim Walz of Minnesota, Harris made a stop at a Sheetz convenience store located in western Pennsylvania on Sunday. This visit was part of a brief tour of the vital swing state in anticipation of the upcoming Democratic National Convention. The administration’s lawsuit against the chain alleges that it engaged in racial discrimination by evaluating potential employees based on their criminal histories.

The Equal Employment Opportunity Commission, an autonomous federal agency, initiated legal action against Sheetz and two of its subsidiaries in April, alleging that the routine criminal background checks conducted for potential hires disproportionately affect minority groups and constitute discrimination, as reported by The Associated Press. Sheetz has refuted these claims, asserting that it does not engage in discriminatory practices and that racial discrimination is unacceptable within its operations.

The lawsuit filed by the federal government indicated that black job applicants who did not pass the background checks were denied employment at Sheetz 14.5% of the time, while multiracial applicants faced a rejection rate of 13%, and Native American applicants experienced a similar rejection rate of 13%. In contrast, white applicants encountered a denial rate of less than 8%, according to the AP. On Sunday, while inside the store, Harris and Walz selected snacks for their journey as they continued their tour of Pennsylvania. Harris seems to have a particular fondness for Doritos, the snack she chose at Sheetz, reminiscent of her indulgence in the cheesy chips during her dismay over former President Donald Trump’s election victory in 2016, as noted in a campaign email.

ALERT: Man Sentenced To PRISON Over Social Media Posts

A man referred to as a “keyboard warrior” has received a three-year prison sentence in the United Kingdom due to his posts on the social media platform X. Wayne O’Rourke, aged 35, was convicted for inciting racial hatred amid recent anti-migration demonstrations and riots.

As reported by the local Lincolnshire Free Press, O’Rourke disseminated false information regarding the mass stabbing incident in Southport, which resulted in the deaths of three young girls, falsely implying that the perpetrator was either a Muslim or an illegal immigrant, both of which were inaccurate claims.

He also provided his 90,000 followers with guidance on how to maintain anonymity during protests, a tactic often employed by left-wing activist groups prior to contentious events. In delivering the sentence, Judge Catarina Sjolin Knight condemned O’Rourke for “instigating” the riots through his online activity, stating, “The flames fanned by keyboard warriors like you.”

One of O’Rourke’s offending posts read: “People of Southport where the f**k are you, get out on the street.”

Another, accompanying a picture of a burning car in Sunderland, said: “Sunderland, go on lads ”

“Starmer has basically said it us against them. Hold the line,” he wrote in a separate X post.

In support of O’Rourke, Lucia Harrington informed the court that her client had become “entangled in the media frenzy” following the mass stabbing incident in Southport, asserting that he did not create his account with the purpose of inciting riots. Harrington further stated that O’Rourke is eager to “re-educate” himself regarding his past mistakes.

Lincolnshire Chief Superintendent Kate Anderson said: “This charge demonstrates that we will take fast and decisive action against anyone suspected of sharing harmful content online.

“We retain a commitment to proactively police and keep people safe across the county.

“This action shows that everyone is responsible for their actions – whether they be in public, or online.”

Alert: Kamala Harris Declares WAR On Capitalism

On Friday, Fox Business host Charles Payne asserted that Vice President Kamala Harris is initiating a “war on capitalism” through her efforts to exert “control” over the economy. During a rally in Raleigh, North Carolina, Harris unveiled her economic strategy, which includes a commitment to implement a federal prohibition on corporate “price-gouging” related to food and groceries.

Payne argued on “The Story with Martha MacCallum” that Harris’ newly unveiled economic policies prove her campaign is “infatuated” with a “government knows all, does all, can provide all” approach.

“What we’re talking about is a war on capitalism,” Payne said. “They really do not believe in capitalism … I never bought in that she was shifting her spots, you know. But then the selection of the governor from Minnesota [Tim Walz] solidified this. They are infatuated with some sort of big government knows all, does all, can provide all, and they are not fans of the for-profit motivation or capitalism … it’s always about control. They want to control, they want to be able to pick winners and losers and they want to be able to punish those losers.”
