“Just an FYI – Kamala Harris’s campaign reached out. They’d like to pay us about $1,000 for access to the email list,” Alcorn wrote in a December 30 email to Hunter and Hallie Biden, Beau’s widow.
The money would go to the [Beau Biden] campaign, then be transferred to the foundation,” explained Alcorn, who ran the Beau Biden Foundation for the Protection of Children from January 2016 to June 2021, according to his LinkedIn profile.
Now, here's the onion:
Three former members of the Federal Election Commission (FEC) told The Post that donor list swaps are common and legal among campaigns, as long as each pays fair market rate.
But funneling the Harris payment to the foundation in exchange for the donor list — after the Biden family made clear months earlier that Beau’s campaign funds would be donated to the foundation — would have been a different matter.
“Charitable organizations are not supposed to be involved in transactions with partisan campaign committees,” said Michael Toner, who served as FEC chairman in 2006 and as a commissioner between 2002 and 2007.
The first layer to peel off here is the status of the Beau Biden "campaign." The money paid — and sure, a grand isn't all that much in the grand scheme of things, but the amount doesn't matter, the law does — the money appears to have been funneled through the campaign and into the Beau Biden Foundation, a 501(c)(3) corporation. Non-profits of this kind are not supposed to be involved in partisan politics, and according to Mr. Christenson, the Beau Biden Foundation, on a Form 990 filing, had denied “...engag(ing) in direct or indirect political campaign activities on behalf of or in opposition to candidates for public office.”
The second layer here is that the Beau Biden Foundation later offered Kamala Harris a seat on their board of directors. That's an unpaid position, but one that carries some influence, and could also run afoul of election finance law.
“The first thing I want to point out is, you know, we use words like ‘anomalies,’ ‘suspicion,’ and everything else because we try to be PC, I guess. But this is fraud, outright fraudulent behavior,” said Hamilton County Board of Elections member Alex Triantafilou, who also serves as chairman of the Ohio Republican Party. “Who’s responsible or how they’re responsible, that will be up to somebody other than me. It’s plain and obvious to me when you get this many registration cards [holds up the stack] with the very same handwriting that someone is trying to defraud the elections process in Hamilton County.”
Not just Hamilton County. Election integrity issues involving employees of a leftist company committed to “Building Long-Term Progressive Power,” have been popping up all over Ohio. //
Meanwhile, potential voter registration fraud as suspected in the Black Forks incidents counter the incessant dubious claims of election integrity deniers that there’s little to no fraud in U.S. elections.
“So to the extent that there’s any press watching, voter fraud is real, it does happen. It happens oftentimes in the form of phony registrations all in the same handwriting,” Triantafilou, the Hamilton County Board of Elections members said at the July meeting.
The interview may be long-awaited, but it’s not the unscripted conversation the nation deserves from an incumbent.
Since China's so-called Peace Ark arrived last week, more than 2,000 South Africans have been treated on board - ranging from maternity check-ups and cataract surgeries to cupping therapy.

The African National Congress (ANC) says its National Health Insurance (NHI) scheme will be a huge improvement as all services at both public and private facilities will be free at the point of care – paid out of a central fund.
Health Minister Aaron Motsoaledi has insisted it will still be implemented despite the party losing its parliamentary majority in May, and going into coalition with parties like the Democratic Alliance (DA) that oppose some aspects of the scheme.
It will cause a massive shake-up of the health sector, but critics fear it could prompt an exodus of health professionals to find employment abroad.
The scheme is being vociferously opposed by private health companies as it bars people from taking out private health insurance for treatment. //
The floating hospital leaves Cape Town on Thursday for Angola before moving on to several other countries. It has already visited the Seychelles, Tanzania, Madagascar and Mozambique - on this its 10th excursion since being commissioned in 2008.
The initiative is seen as a further step in China’s efforts to increase its influence on the African continent.
An extreme pro-abortion amendment is supported by a majority of Florida Republicans due to the failure of the Republican Party of Florida to mount any effective opposition. //
Amendment 4 would allow abortion on-demand through the 25th week of pregnancy, which is the point of fetal viability outside the womb, according to the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists. More importantly, the amendment would allow abortion at any time with a decision by a “healthcare provider” that an abortion is “necessary to protect the patient’s health.” The measure would also eliminate the requirement of parental consent for a minor to have an abortion, but leave in place the requirement that parents be notified of a minor having an abortion.
If Amendment 4 passes, a Planned Parenthood “health care provider” (a term not defined under Florida law) could determine that an abortion is necessary to protect a woman’s health — even a minor’s health, and potentially her “mental health.” The determination could be based on “protecting” the woman from the normal risks of pregnancy and birth, anxiety over having a child, or the risk of post-partum depression.
That same “health care provider” might then perform the abortion, with no limit on how late in the pregnancy the abortion could be performed. And if the woman were a minor, the law would require only that her parents be notified.
The Georgia State Election Board (SEB) passed a series of rules clarifying that county election board members have the right to make a “reasonable inquiry” into elections before certifying the results. Another rule clarifies board members are entitled to review election-related material as part of their inquiry. But the Democratic National Committee (DNC), alongside Georgia Democrats, filed a lawsuit Monday over the rules, essentially demanding the courts force county election officials to rubber-stamp elections without any questions asked. //
“If you actually read the rule, you’ll see there’s nothing in there that would delay certification,” Grubbs told The Federalist.
Grubbs told The Federalist that election superintendents are “withholding documents needed for people to certify the election,” including in her own county (Cobb County).
“The very people that they have in hysterics over it are the same people in control over the information,” she said.
When people ask me why I despise the government, stories like this come to mind.
A Falcon, Colorado, woman convicted for entering the United States Capitol building on Jan. 6, 2021 while the riot was occurring was sentenced on Monday to one year of probation.
Rebecca Lavrenz, known as “J6 Praying Grandma” on social media, is also being forced to fork over $103,500 in fines after being convicted of four misdemeanor counts, the Colorado Sun reported. //
federal prosecutors asked the judge to throw Lavrenz in a cage for ten months and put her on supervised release and 60 hours of community service. They argued that she has been “one of the loudest public voices calling the prosecution of January 6 riots a corrupt exercise.”
The prosecutors acknowledged Lavrenz’s First Amendment rights but insisted that “her unrepentant promotion of the riot is powerful evidence that she continues to pose a threat to future acts of political violence like that which engulfed the nation on January 6.” //
Even further, prosecutors argued in favor of the fine because the defendant – wait for it – participated in interviews and used online fundraising accounts to supposedly seek “celebrity status” for her supposed criminality. How dare she try to raise funds for her legal defense, right? //
Unfortunately, Lavrenz is not the only one. People get railroaded by government at the federal, state, and local levels on a daily basis. //

Jeff, did you catch Glen Beck today? He featured a woman that survived Yugoslavian concentration camps and has now been sentenced to 10 years in prison for violating the FACE Act. She said she is fully prepared to die in prison. This government is not the United States. We’ve already been taken over.
Both she and Joe Biden seem to think the role of the government is to open up the taxpayers's coffers and use the money in giveaways to buy votes. They don't seem to understand that it's the overspending that helped to kick off the inflation that has been crushing people. So, they keep proposing things that will only make things worse. //

Under her unrealized gain tax plan you would have to pay taxes on that increase. It’s unbelievable.
What's less believable is that this harrowing story of a working-class woman having to pay her way through college by salting fries was only worth mentioning when she began to run for president.
For decades, Harris never mentioned it, not on the campaign trail nor in two books. It’s absent from a job application and résumé she submitted a year after she graduated from college. Third-party biographers did not write about it. Not until Harris ran for president in 2019 and spoke to a labor rally in Las Vegas did she mention the job, telling the crowd that she "was a student when I was working in a McDonald’s."
It would seem odd for Harris to never mention this detail about her life story until she was in her mid-50s. She wrote multiple books, and none of them included her working at McDonald's. The multiple biographers who profiled her apparently never knew about it either. Only when it became politically convenient did Harris start making the claim.
Then there's her post-college resume, which never mentions any job at McDonald's. In the same document, she mentioned fairly irrelevant details about her travel to Africa and India. //

It seems as though Trump derangement syndrome (TDS) knows no bounds. From things that can be classified as silly, like former First Lady Melania Trump never appearing on the cover of magazines like Vogue, to the extremely serious, like an assassination attempt. Closer to the serious end of the scale lands the folks at Arlington National Cemetery and their recent treatment of the 13 Gold Star families of service members killed in the Afghanistan withdrawal at Abbey Gate and the ceremony marking the third anniversary of that incident, with former President Donald Trump attending that ceremony.

Liberals trending #WeRespectVets, when both Kamala Harris and Joe Biden didn’t bother to show up at Arlington National Cemetery is hypocrisy at its finest.
One man showed up at the request of the families, his name was Donald Trump.
11:44 AM · Aug 29, 2024
Per a Daily Caller exclusive report, Speaker of the House Mike Johnson (R-LA) ultimately ended up intervening so that Trump, who had been invited to attend the ceremony and laid a wreath for the service members, could get into Arlington National Cemetery. This part of the never-ending disrespect these families have received at the hands of the Biden-Harris federal government begins with the Cemetery informing the families that there was a specific time that the ceremony could be held, but that time was not convenient for all family members. They were also informed that Trump would not be able to join them at their loved ones's gravesites.
Darin Hoover and Kelly Barnett are the parents of SSGT Taylor Hoover. Hoover and Barnett contacted Rep. Michael McCaul (R-TX), Chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee, who, in turn, contacted Speaker Johnson. Johnson made a phone call, and what do you know, the situation changed. In addition to Johnson and McCaul, Reps. Brian Mast (R-FL) and Darrell Issa (R-CA) also stepped in to help the families to make sure the ceremony went off without a hitch.
But this is not the only roadblock that Arlington National Cemetery put up, a place whose very existence is to pay respect to those who have served. The Cemetery claimed that the families had stated they did not want any media, photography, or videography at the gravesites. That, however, was not the case. The families had stated that media designated by Trump's team was acceptable. However, Arlington kept interfering in the process.

Trump’s insistence that abortion should be left “up to the states” gives Democrats and abortion giants a free pass to target Republican strongholds like Florida with their extreme abortion agenda.
Trump’s “reproductive rights” rhetoric and Vance’s confirmation that the pair will veto federal pro-life protections are certainly reprimandable. But they shouldn’t be the ultimate focus of pro-lifers’ ire this November.
Nearly a dozen states face deceptive ballot measures that promise to protect abortion. If passed in November, these proposed amendments will not only enshrine abortion for any reason in red state constitutions, but will also prohibit those states from passing laws aimed at holding abortionists accountable for the harm they cause women and unborn babies.
These ballot measure campaigns are dangerous because, even though they are plagued with undefined terminology that can be easily construed to justify abortion for any reason and questionable signature-gathering practices, they are effective.
Time and time again, the pro-life movement has allowed abortion radicals to sneak their ballot measure schemes right past their Republican-controlled legislatures, governors’ mansions, and attorneys general offices. As a result, every single one of the seven state abortion referendums introduced since the fall of Roe v. Wade have ended with enshrining the “right” to murder preborn babies in state constitutions.
These constitutional amendments, which effectively hamper states from legislating on abortion, contraception, assisted reproductive technology, and the radical transing of children, are not easily undone.
Instead of talking about these ballot measures, however, pro-life figureheads and politicos everywhere are postulating about Trump’s position on abortion. //
The goal of the pro-life movement has always been to eradicate abortion. But hinging that goal on a federal abortion ban (which is only in the realm of possibility thanks to Trump and his first term) and a federal abortion ban only severely restricts pro-lifers’ effectiveness in the states where referendums on abortion are becoming routine.
Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger is facing a powerful defamation lawsuit arising from false claims he made about a Republican election volunteer in his 2021 book “Integrity Counts.” He wrote and published that a video presentation of unsupervised ballot counting at State Farm Arena in Atlanta had been “doctored,” “chopped up,” “cut,” “sliced up,” and “deceptively sliced and edited so that it appeared to show the exact opposite of reality,” allegedly including a “slice of video that had removed the clear evidence” that the law had been followed.
None of that was true. Jacki Pick, a Republican volunteer on the Trump legal team, was the sole presenter of the video to Georgia legislators to show that Republican election observers’ claims about unsupervised ballot counting in Georgia’s largest county were true. While she did not show the entire 20 hours of the video in her 12-minute presentation, nothing she showed was edited, chopped up, sliced, or diced, in any way. //
For example, in March 2020, Raffensperger succumbed to the legal efforts of Democrat activist Marc Elias to water down signature verification requirements for mail-in ballots. After several Democrat counties poorly administered primary elections in 2020, Raffensperger voluntarily embraced “Zuck Bucks,” the scheme by which Democrat operatives took over government election operations in the blue areas of swing states and helped run Get Out The Vote programs. Georgia was the primary target of the operation, receiving $45 million from the Center for Tech and Civic Life. The results were remarkable.
Georgia went from a more than five point margin of victory for Republicans in 2016 to narrow loss in 2020. Raffensperger’s office immediately went into a defensive posture, rejecting information requests from Republican activists, refusing to investigate legitimate claims of illegal voting, and even fabricating Trump quotes that were cited in his impeachment. They also illegally recorded a key phone call they held with the Trump campaign, mischaracterized the context of the call, and immediately leaked it to the Washington Post. These and other actions have led election integrity activists to view the entire Georgia Secretary of State office with suspicion and frustration. //
Raffensperger is in court over the false statements he published in his 2021 book, not for how his office illegally recorded phone calls and leaked them to their political allies in left-wing media, or any other action against Trump. //
“Ms. Pick never once asked Mr. Raffensperger to make statements regarding the 2020 election; her only concern is in repairing her damaged reputation caused by false statements made by Mr. Raffensperger in 2021, a full year later. Ms. Pick will hold Mr. Raffensperger accountable for making false statements about her, and the fact he’s more interested in diverting attention to a 2020 election narrative that portrays him favorably and away from addressing his 2021 defamatory statements shows he is extremely concerned that justice will be served,” said Bill Whitehill, a member of her legal team.
For those of us who have criticized Facebook for years for its role in the massive censorship system, Zuckerberg's belated contrition was more insulting than inspiring. It had all of the genuine regret as a stalker found hiding under the bed of a victim.
Zuckerberg's sudden regret only came after his company fought for years to conceal the evidence of its work with the government to censor opposing views. Zuckerberg was finally compelled to release the documents by House Judiciary Committee... //
Zuckerberg stayed silent as Musk was viciously attacked by anti-free speech figures in Congress and the media. He was fully aware of his own company's similar conduct but stayed silent.
When the White House and President Joe Biden repeatedly claimed that the Hunter Biden laptop was Russian disinformation, Facebook continued to withhold evidence that they too were pressured to suppress the story before the election.
When the censorship system was recently put before the Supreme Court in Murthy v. Missouri and the justices asked about evidence of coordination and pressure from the government. In Murthy, states successfully showed lower courts that there was coercion from the government in securing an injunction.
The Biden administration denied such pressure and the Court rejected the standing of plaintiffs, blocked an order to stop the censorship, and sent the case back down to the lower court.
Zuckerberg still remained silent. //

Facebook was not silent when it came to censorship, or "content moderation" as the company prefers to call it. While Zuckerberg now expresses "regret" at not speaking out sooner, his company previously sought to sell Americans on censorship. //
For years, young people have been taught that free speech is harmful and triggering. We are raising of generation of speech-phobics and Zuckerberg and Facebook wanted to tap into that generation to get people to stop fearing the censor and love "content modification." It was time, as Joshan and his friends told us, to "change" with our computers.
Now, Zuckerberg and Meta want people to know that they were "pressured" to censor and really regret their role in silencing opposing voices.
It is the feigned regret that comes with forced exposure.
The Facebook files now put the lie to past claims of the Biden administration and many Democrats in Congress. For years, members attacked some of us who testified that we had no evidence of coordination or pressure from the government. At the same time, they opposed any effort to investigate and release such evidence.
The evidence is now undeniable. //
Jen Easterly, who heads the Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, is an example of the chilling scope of this effort. Her agency was created to work on our critical infrastructure but Easterly declared that the mandate would now include policing "our cognitive infrastructure." That includes combating "malinformation," or information "based on fact, but used out of context to mislead, harm, or manipulate."
Consider that for a second: true facts are censorable if the government views them as misleading.
As I write in my book, President Joe Biden is arguably the most anti-free speech president since John Adams. His administration helped create a censorship system that was described by one federal judge as "Orwellian." Vice President Kamala Harris has been entirely supportive of that effort.
In 1800, Thomas Jefferson defeated John Adams in the only election where free speech was one of the principal campaign issues. It should be so again. Harris should have to take ownership of the censorship system maintained by the administration.
Boeing has has a long string of aviation disasters to its credit which many attribute to Boeing's embrace of DEI to the detriment of engineering excellence.
NASA is also pushing DEI inside its engineering operations. In fact, "diversity statements" determine if programs sink or swim: see Biden-Harris admin requires 'corrupt' DEI 'ideological litmus test' on NASA innovation funding, scientists say | Fox News.
What might make up a "white supremacy culture?" //
Hmm, it seems to me that a heaping doses of "perfectionism," "either/or thinking," "objectivity," "quantity over quality," and "sense of urgency" are all things that would have helped Boeing avoid this fiasco. Perhaps a little "worship of the written word" could have come in handy when building a freakin computer clock or choosing non-flammable components. Or some solid "power hoarding," instead of "group groping" when making decisions.
The irony of alleged "white supremacy culture" containing so many of the elements that would have prevented this fiasco is just too much to bear.
Speaker Johnson had to intervene to get Trump into Arlington National Cemetery for the anniversary of the withdrawal from Afghanistan with Gold Star families. //
The Gold Star families, who lost their children during the Biden administration’s withdrawal from Afghanistan, invited Trump to Arlington National Cemetery. He laid a wreath there for the 13 servicemembers who were killed serving their country in Afghanistan. However, a Gold Star family told the Caller that Arlington National Cemetery was trying to make it difficult for the former President to appear for the ceremony to honor their children, something the families requested.
Arlington National Cemetery told Gold Star families that they could only be there for a specific time that did not work for everyone’s schedule and were also told the president could not join them at their children’s gravesites, the family told the Caller. //
Republican California Rep. Darrell Issa has called on Biden to meet with these Gold Star families on multiple occasions, his office told the Caller. He was present for the ceremonies on Monday and had been in contact with Arlington National Cemetery leading up to the anniversary, his office said.
“This administration absolutely interfered with the tributes to the 13 fallen. In its war on Trump, it made the Gold Star families collateral damage,” Issa told the Caller. //
“Arlington Cemetery officials claimed the families didn’t want any media, photography, or videography at Section 60, contradicting what the families had actually requested. The families were fine with the media, designated by the Trump team, but Arlington kept pushing back, obstructing the process,” the source continued. “This would have not happened without Speaker Johnson.”
Hoover told the Caller in an emotional phone call that he and other Gold Star family members were the ones who called Trump and asked for him to show up. He also criticized the Biden administration for not contacting them for the past three years.
The complaint asks Kemp to “remove” the three board members and “further, refer the matter to the Attorney General for prosecution, in the event that [he] discover[s] evidence of an actionable violation.”
President and CEO of Restoring Integrity and Trust in Elections Derek Lyons said in a statement given to The Federalist that this “noise is what happens every time someone tries to ensure the integrity of our elections.”
“It’s important to remember that what they’re complaining about is the mere idea of having local boards check that election results are accurate before certifying them,” Lyons continued. “So, you have to ask yourself, what are the reasons to object to that?”
This using the United States Supreme Court to litigate elections should never have become a thing. We can blame former Vice President Al Gore for opening that door to that. Norah O'Donnell and the Brown Jackson are assuming the 2024 election will be contested and that SCOTUS will be the deciding factor. So rich. They are setting the narrative and the playing field.
The New York Times published a piece essentially trashing the Gold Star families who invited Donald Trump to Arlington National Cemetery on Monday.
As RedState reported, the president appeared at a ceremony honoring the 13 murdered American service members who died during the Abbey Gate Bombing. The devastating event unfolded in August of 2021 amid the Biden-Harris administration's incompetent withdrawal from Afghanistan.
Joe Biden and Kamala Harris neither showed up for the ceremony nor gave live statements commemorating the third anniversary of the deaths. Instead, the president vacationed on the beach while Harris continued campaigning. That did nothing but underscore the complete lack of accountability stemming from their decision-making. //
What makes this even more ridiculous is that Joe Biden used shots of Arlington National Cemetery and flag-draped caskets in a political ad back in June. You can even see the names on the gravestones in the video with the caption by Biden reading "Donald Trump doesn’t know a damn thing about service to his country." //
Did Maggie Haberman and the Times mention that? Did they suggest it broke the rules of politicizing Arlington National Cemetery and the deaths of American service members? Did any reporters call up the families of those whose gravestones were shown? Of course, not.
The moment the Gold Star families said they wanted the cameras there and asked to take pictures with the former president, that should have been the end of it. //
Haberman, the Times, and the rest have now spent more time freaking out over Trump showing up to honor the fallen than they have critiquing those who got them killed. It's deranged. //

The Democrats have tried to keep left-wing third party candidates off the November ballot. //
It’s curious. The same Democratic Party that has feverishly tried to keep leftist third-party presidential candidates off November’s ballot is now fighting like hell to keep Robert F. Kennedy Jr. on.
PBS’s Judy Woodruff may have spent the last 50-plus years in journalism, but her attempt to wrongfully accuse former President Donald Trump of killing the ceasefire deal between Israel and Hamas and then lying about it proves she’s more of a Democrat propagandist than anything else. //
Woodruff claimed she was “referring to reports I had read, in Axios and Reuters, about former President Trump having spoken to the Israeli Prime Minister.” //
In this case, however, neither outlet asserted that Trump tried to discourage Netanyahu from peace negotiations, as Woodruff claimed. //
Woodruff’s decision to lie in the “clarification” and “apology” she designed to cover for her initial lie only further solidifies that she is not fit to fairly and accurately report.
While Mr. Crooks’s motive remains opaque, his online searches reveal someone who was looking for an opportunity to pull off a spectacular attack that would garner widespread attention, by either inflicting mass casualties or killing someone famous. Thus far, that profile more closely resembles that of a mass shooter than a politically motivated assassin.
Starting as a teenager in 2019 through this year, Mr. Crooks progressed from searching “detonating cord,” “blasting cap” and “how to make a bomb from fertilizer” to seeking detailed information about the activities and whereabouts of politicians in both parties. By late 2023, his search history included queries related to Mr. Trump, President Biden and both parties’ conventions, the officials said. //

HARRIS: But our country is counting on you. All of you. You are leaders by the very fact that you all are in your room, doing what you do at this incredible school, doing it as one big team, understanding all of the different parts that fit together to create a team.
