Venezuela’s national Electoral Council announced late Sunday night that Dictator President Nicolás Maduro received 51% of the vote to win reelection.
Edmundo González, Maduro’s opposition, supposedly only got 44% of the votes despite leading Maduro by 25% in the polls.
Once again, the Biden administration looks weak because it made numerous concessions to Venezuela if it promised to hold free and fair elections.
I mean, imagine even THINKING a dictator would ever consider holding an election that could get him kicked out. Precious.

The Biden-Harris administration brilliantly bent the knee to Venezuela’s dictator in exchange for a “promise” of “free and fair elections.”
Today, Maduro stole the election.
The worst foreign policy minds in American history have struck again.

Kamala Harris has failed her way upward farther than any other 59-year-old woman, with the help of a few male politicians she smarmed. She is attractive to many and non-threatening.
At heart, however, Harris is a radical leftist who’s left no detectable trail of actual accomplishments anywhere – except getting elected in predictably Democrat California.
She’s shown no signs of even mediocre management skills; more than 90 percent of her staff has quit since 2021.
Her 2020 primary bid cratered before a single vote was cast. She reportedly does little to no homework for public appearances. It shows. She looks unserious.
Harris’ judgment is seriously suspect for a wannabe leader of the free world. When the prime minister of Israel, America’s main Mideast ally confronting Iran, visited the White House last week, Harris chose instead to speak to a sorority convention in Indiana. //
Harris’ speaking style comes from the Prof. Irwin Corey School of Rhetoric. Her remarks are replete with impressive words assembled in nonsense order, pauses as if she’s crafting deep thoughts, big hand gestures to distract from empty words, and a laugh that resembles something else.
She also often relies on condescension. (That means talking down to people like this.) //
Trump has called Harris “a lunatic,” which she isn’t. He needs to leave the cheesy attack stuff to JD Vance and outline his own recharged vision for the country’s future, which conveniently would enhance his presidential stature to swing voters.
And be careful in his public remarks. There is a double standard in U.S. politics that is not fair but very real. While women have long encountered a glass ceiling in politics, they also need to appear respected in confrontations with men, even if it's undeserved.
Bullying is counter-productive, and condescension can be lethal. //
Even after four years of covering for a failing man who kept calling her the president, what Harris has going for her is a fresh face, her age (59), and not being Donald Trump.
Harris even handed the worrisome age issue back to Republicans. Trump would be 82 at his term’s end, older than Biden now.
Trump revulsion remains strong among millions. It was key to Biden’s win four years ago. With a flailing Biden atop the 2024 ticket, Democrats likely gave up hope of finally terminating Trump’s presence inside their heads. Many would have thrown away their vote on a third party or stayed home on Election Day, which would cripple down-ticket Democrats.
Not anymore. No one should disregard or underestimate the power of that energizing factor. It could fade. Or endure. //
What ought to concern GOP strategists is that right now, even after the messy coup and before the anticipated big bounce, Harris is surprisingly close to Trump, perhaps ahead.
Democrats pulled a switcheroo with Joe Biden, knowing they were going to go down to defeat with him, after his disastrous debate made it impossible to hide his cognitive decline anymore.
Democrats are trying to whip up excitement over Kamala Harris. But are they going to be in any better position with Harris?

Black Men this is your reminder that in 2010 Kamala Harris extended the sentence of Caramad Conley for a murder he didn't commit. Nearly 20 yrs of his life gone.
In 2007, she also sent Jamal Trulove to prison for six years for a murder he didn't commit.

She has no policy, no record to stand on. One of the biggest thing she did in her career is lock up more black men than ever before, but we sit here and vote her in office on identity politics… We did that during the Obama Administration and he didn’t do anything for black people…" //
Kamala Harris does not have the Black vote locked up, and this anointing and lack of examination of who she is and her record is going to have the opposite effect of pushing Black voters away.
The spot is "narrated" by Harris, but it’s clear that it’s done by either using an AI voice generator or by splicing together audio clips to make it sound like she said things she obviously didn’t. Mr Reagan intersperses those sections with real footage of Kamala making a fool out of herself without the aid of advanced technology. //
I, Kamala Harris, am your Democrat candidate for president because Joe Biden finally exposed his senility at the debate. Thanks Joe...
I may not know the first thing about running the country, but remember: that's a good thing if you're a deep state puppet. I had four years under the tutelage of the ultimate deep state puppet, a wonderful mentor, Joe Biden. //
Joe taught me rule number one: carefully hide your total incompetence.
I take insignificant things and I discuss them as if they're significant. And I believe that exploring the significance of the insignificant is in itself significant. [Cut to actual footage from an event:] Talking about the significance of the passage of time, right? The significance of the passage of time. So when you think about it, there is great significance to the passage of time. [Cuts to a different portion of those remarks:] And there is such great significance to the passage of time. //

‘The public deserves answers for how this Executive Order is being implemented, particularly as VP Harris becomes the new nominee,’ Rep. Bryan Steil said. //
President Joe Biden may have left the presidential race, but “Bidenbucks” lives on.
And you can bet your federal tax bill that the Biden administration will be revving up the taxpayer-funded, get-out-the-vote machine for not-so-accidental candidate Vice President Kamala Harris.
“I think they definitely will,” Hans von Spakovsky, a former member of the Federal Election Commission and manager of the Heritage Foundation’s Election Law Reform Initiative, told me in an interview this week. “I think what they’re doing is an unlawful use of federal taxpayer dollars, and I don’t think any president has the right to do it.”
Documents obtained by the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project expose federal agencies working with left-wing activist groups in targeting traditionally Democrat voters to cast mail-in ballots for Biden’s No. 2 in November’s election. And there appears no slowdown in the constitutionally suspect initiative now that Biden has withdrawn from his reelection run and endorsed his leftist lieutenant.
Dem Rep. said FEC chair’s presentation of federal law might “sow misguided doubt and confusion about the state of the presidential election.” //
The Trump campaign filed a complaint with the Federal Election Commission (FEC) on Tuesday challenging the transfer of funds and reportedly calling it “the largest campaign finance violation in American history.”
In the complaint, Trump campaign General Counsel David Warrington reportedly contended that the $91.5 million in campaign funds originally raised by Biden’s presidential campaign cannot be transferred to Harris, who has yet to be named the official Democrat nominee.
Biden and Harris are “flagrantly violating the [Federal Election Campaign Act (FECA) of 1971, as amended] by making and receiving an excessive contribution of nearly one hundred million dollars, and for filing fraudulent forms with the Commission purporting to repurpose one candidate’s principal campaign committee for the use of another candidate,” Warrington reportedly wrote in the complaint.

Now that Joe Biden is out of the race, the media are pretending Kamala Harris was never the border czar.
Even though they had no problem calling her that before Biden dropped out.

The propaganda press working so hard to erase the fact that Kamala Harris was put in charge of the border shows not only what a vulnerability her role in the border is but also what a huge vulnerability her general incompetence is.

After episodes of Axios and GovTrack retroactively changing their reporting, we are in uncharted territory where we are in Soviet style rewriting of history, not just media bias.
there’s a joke that I saw on Twitter today, which was that in the Soviet Union, the future was always written, but it’s the past that kept changing. And what they were talking about is Stalin and other Soviet leaders had a habit of changing history. And they would do it in many ways. And one of the ways they would do it as featured in this image. //
Axios wrote an article today saying that’s not true. She was never called the Border Czar. And then people found from 2021 articles in Axios calling her the Border Czar because she doesn’t want to now take responsibility for the border problems.
So Axios just reinvented it, wrote an addition saying, oh, we were wrong back then. We used it improperly.
No, they didn’t. They used it in context at the time because that’s what she was called. And just like the Soviets go back and airbrush people and rewrite things, that’s what Axios did today. //
GovTrack had rated her in 2019 as the most liberal senator in the Senate. That means to the left of Bernie Sanders. That’s a problem for Kamala Harris, and that is something that Republicans are hitting her on.
And in completely Soviet style. GovTrack simply took down her page and posted a notice saying that they’ve reconsidered things. And their whole methodology that they used in 2019, not just for her, but for everybody, was now wrong. And they removed the page much like the Soviets would remove pages from the encyclopedia. //
4fun | July 24, 2024 at 9:34 pm
I think this is the Soviet joke you were looking for.
The past is rewritten so fast that you don’t know what will happen yesterday.
As RedState reported earlier on Wednesday, the left-wing outlet published an article attacking Republicans for referring to Harris as the nation's "border czar." There was just one problem. Axios published an article in 2021 stating that she was. //
What's the first rule of holes? Something about not digging any further? After getting caught with its pants down, Axios didn't step back and admit it got it wrong. Instead, it added an editor's note throwing itself under the bus for once referring to Harris as the "border czar." In other words, an entire article was written to claim Republicans were lying, and in the end, Axios had to admit it had reported the exact same thing. //
Now that it's become clear she failed miserably at the task, the press wants to take it all back and pretend she holds no real responsibility for the disaster that continues to unfold. Call it Soviet, Orwellian, or worse, it's incredibly creepy to witness the lengths to which supposed "news" outlets are willing to go to protect Harris. This is not how the press is supposed to operate. //

I beg to differ.
Since her job as border czar was to do absolutely nothing, from the dems' perspective she succeeded brilliantly.
Ditto Mayorkis brilliantly succeeding at securing the border. They got exactly what they wanted from him too.
While there are many good reasons to vote for Donald Trump and against Kamala Harris, some reasons stand out. So, without further ado, here are ten great reasons to vote against Kamala Harris. //

I have twenty relatives who all have one GREAT reason to vote for Harris. They are all dead.
It is possible to push too far and cause voters to recoil. It is not going to be enough to shout "DEI" over and over. Harris has a record, and that record must be meticulously and strategically taken apart for every American to see.

Right now, I see a lot of Republicans thinking they can just meme their way to victory. That's far too online of a viewpoint. As I said earlier, I'm all for having fun, but beating Harris is going to take discipline and a well-planned political assault. In the short term, everyone should be prepared for her to start leading in some polls and a total reset of the national narrative. That's not coming from me. That's coming from Trump's own pollster. //
The last big consideration is money. Biden was being strangled by donors. That has now ended with Harris at the top of the ticket. The cash is flowing, and if it hasn't already happened, Democrats are poised to pass up Republicans soon when it comes to total resources on hand. That alone is a major game changer.
Yes, there will be an onslaught of ads, but more importantly, Democrats will now have the money needed to pay volunteers and build ground game infrastructure. Republicans can't just expect to do a few rallies in swing states and drive enough turnout any longer. It's going to take an incredibly well-organized effort to outdo Democrats on the ground. //

The Dems weakness is they have been exposed as incompetent liars. It's hard to come back from that.
If Trump can paint Kamala as an incompetent liar who really is over her head, the base instinct for the mass of voters will be for a strong leader because they feel unsafe and insecure about their survival economically and physically.
Kamala will call Trump a criminal, a woman abuser, a fraudster, and a "dictator on day one" who worships Project 2025.
The problem is none of that is true and all but the most BlueAnon dorks know life was better 4 years ago and crime was lower, too.
Kitchen table issues and safety on the streets and in the home trumps woke bullshit and debunked Dem propaganda.
What is Kamala gonna say about Trump that the voters haven't heard and factored in already to the current polling?
Kamala inherits stale and tired talking points and her record is atrocious.
So far, the evidence of Harris being a leader of any type, much less a "strong and tested" one, is scant. The sky-high attrition rate in her office indicates a toxic and dysfunctional work environment. Indeed, she reminds me of the story about the lieutenant of whom it was said, "Men follow this officer out of sheer curiosity." //
I find it ludicrous and insulting to the intelligence to say she can make the case "about why Donald Trump is a threat to America’s national security" when she just participated in a palace coup to strip Joe Biden of his candidacy, if not supplant him as president. //

The dishonesty is shocking. Traveling does not mean accomplishment. Meetings are a dime a dozen. Where are the Biden-Harris versions of the Abraham Accords, the five trade deals, the strong push back against China, Trump’s NK trip, etc? Under Biden-Harris all we have is chaos and embarrassment such as the Afghanistan debacle and our continued aid to the Taliban; sanctions relief to Iran and aid to Hamas; the closure of multiple embassies because of threats; getting kicked out of Niger; losing to China around the globe; three years of war in Ukraine.
