KAMALA HARRIS, PLAGIARIST

“Kamala Harris plagiarized at least a dozen sections of her criminal-justice book, Smart on Crime, according to a new investigation,” reports Christopher Rufo. “

The current vice president even lifted material from Wikipedia.”
You might say she was “unburdened by what has been” written by other people.
Rufo, a senior fellow at the Manhattan Institute for Policy Research, has exposed plagiarists before — most famously former Harvard University President Claudine Gay last year.

There’s little reason to doubt his reporting on Harris, especially given “the receipts,” as he calls the proof in his X thread. He further (more…)

UNCOVERING THE COVERAGE

I first heard it, very faintly, in 2017.

At the time, President Donald Trump was accused of spying for Russia. If true, this would have been the biggest act of treason in American history, bigger than Aldrich Ames, bigger than the Rosenbergs, bigger than Benedict Arnold.

The New York Times and Washington Post published long articles that detailed Trump’s treachery, for which they shared a Pulitzer Prize.

Adam Schiff, head of the intelligence committee, stood up night after night on cable news, claiming he had secret “bombshell” information proving that Trump was a traitor.

The charges were investigated and (more…)

THE EDUCATION OF DONALD J. TRUMP

[Note from Jack Wheeler: Skye is seriously under the weather today.  Let’s all wish him a speedy recovery so he’ll be back in the Skye’s Links saddle next week.]

We all expected a tumultuous presidential campaign.

But I was not prepared to see a Kennedy endorse a Republican, nor the Cheneys endorse a far-Left Democrat.

I was equally unprepared for the embrace of Trumpian policies by the very Democrats who hate him with the fire of a thousand suns.

The coup that toppled Joe Biden caught me by surprise, as did the coronation of an unelected nominee, Kamala Harris.

Not to mention two foiled assassinations buried by the media. And we still have a month to go.

Is there any way to make sense of this?

UKRAINE LEADS WORLD IN DRONE INNOVATION AND PRODUCTION

The world’s first drone, digital, and cyber war is taking place in Ukraine.

Previously, these wars were one-sided, as seen when the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) (2001–2021) and Azerbaijan (2020) used drones against Afghan and Armenian combatants who did not possess this technology.

In Russia’s war against Ukraine, both sides are using domestic and foreign drones, but Ukraine has a ten-to-one advantage in their number (X.com/ChrisO_wiki, August 21; Golos Amerikii, September 19).

Resilience, innovation, adaptation, and quick learning have allowed Ukraine to stay one step ahead of Russia.

Horizontal ties between civil society, volunteer groups, a (more…)

AIRHEAD: KAMALA IMPLODES OWN CAMPAIGN WITH BIDEN COMMENT

Talk about a softball. Indeed, it was a beach ball.

Kids, when you sit for that first job interview and your prospective employer asks you about your work history, you’ll almost certainly be asked if you’d have done anything differently during your time there.

Sure enough, as Kamala Harris continued her tour yesterday of unserious “media” interviews with Trump-hating pro-Harris cupcakes, “The View’s” Sunny Hostin asked her precisely that question: “Would you have done something differently than President Biden during the past four years?”

Harris, of course, has had difficulty separating herself from the man who made her (more…)

HOW TO BLOW UP THE MIDDLE EAST IN FIVE EASY STEPS

When Joe Biden became president, the Middle East was calm. Now it is in the midst of a multifront war.

So quiet was the inheritance from the prior Trump administration that nearly three years later, on September 29, 2023 –and just eight days before the October 7 Hamas massacre of Israelis — Biden’s national security advisor Jack Sullivan could still brag that “The Middle East region is quieter today than it has been in two decades.”

So, what exactly happened to the inherited calm that led to the current nonstop chaos of the present?

In a word, theocratic Iran — (more…)

FEMA – WHEN YOUR GENITALIA BECOME YOUR MORAL COMPASS

In fiscal year 2023, Congress allocated $29.5 billion to FEMA. You’d think that’s a lot of money, and you’d be right.

However, even as FEMA has been granted massive amounts of funds for illegal aliens through Customs and Border Patrol, it’s managed to run out of money for ordinary Americans facing terrible disasters.

Now, we’re learning that FEMA employees are doing more allocations, this time based on what I can only call “genital equity.” (I scorn the phrase “gender equity.”)

That is, FEMA employees aren’t concerned with the greatest good for the greatest number during an emergency. They’re concerned with (more…)
