Trump: Kamala’s a bitch.

Thank God The Media Wasn't Asleep During Watergate
Three major news outlets, The Washington Post, Politico, and The New York Times, all received hacked material from former President Donald Trump’s campaign and so far have not published any of the material or offered specifics about exactly what they received.

With democracy on the line the MSM sided with the fascist dictator wannabe.

UF Students Were Against Sasse's Hiring. They Knew He Was Corrupt.

In his 17-month stint as UF president, Ben Sasse more than tripled his office’s spending, directing millions in university funds into secretive consulting contracts and high-paying positions for his GOP allies.

Sasse ballooned spending under the president’s office to $17.3 million in his first year in office — up from $5.6 million in former UF President Kent Fuchs’ last year, according to publicly available administrative budget data.

Ron DeSantis hired Nebraska GOP senator Ben Sasse to be president of the University of Florida. Sasse spent the next 17 months funneling millions of university dollars to Republican operatives in DC before abruptly resigning. Here’s why that’s bad news for Kamala Harris. - New York Times Pitchbot

Money Can't Buy Smarts
Vice President Harris’s campaign responded to former President Trump’s interview with Elon Musk on Monday, calling them “self-obsessed rich guys” and jabbing them over their livestream issues.

2. You call him Trump? Call her Harris.

The complaints come after the two men had a two-hour-long conversation marred by technical difficulties the previous night on X, Musk's social media platform formerly known as Twitter.

McCarthy tells Trump to stop questioning size of Harris’s crowds

McCarthy tells Trump to stop questioning size of Harris’s crowds

Former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) says former President Trump should stop questioning the size of Vice President Harris’s crowds at her campaign rallies and instead focus on her as a candidate.

Trump is back on Twitter because she's beating him on social media crowd size too. He can't get those numbers on his shi=y little copycat app. He needs Elon's bots. He needs people outside of maga to  inflate his engagement, an obvious indication that he doesn't have the votes. - Laurie Lehner

Republicans Are Wanting Trump To Focus On Policy Not Crowd Size. LOL.

Republicans are pleading with former President Trump to focus on policy after he has spent the first few weeks against Vice President Harris’s surging campaign indulging what they see as his worst impulses.

Since Harris replaced President Biden as the Democratic nominee in late July, Trump has exasperated some of his allies with a lack of discipline in his campaign messaging.

After the son of Isaac Hayes publicly denounced the orange felon for the unauthorized use of his father’s music as well as for racist rhetoric and sexual abuse of women, Lawyers for the Isaac Hayes estate are suing to stop him and are demanding $3M for past use. Take him down.  - Ricky Davila

U.S. Consumers Aren't Consuming Corporate Price Hikes

The great inflation spike of the past three years is nearly spent — and economists credit American consumers for helping slay it.

Some of America's largest companies, from Amazon to Disney to Yum Brands, say their customers are increasingly seeking cheaper alternative products and services, searching for bargains or just avoiding items they deem too expensive. Consumers aren't cutting back enough to cause an economic downturn. Rather, economists say, they appear to be returning to pre-pandemic norms, when most companies felt they couldn't raise prices very much without losing business.

Why were CNN and MSNBC airing empty podiums waiting for Trump to arrive but they aren’t carrying the live streams of Kamala’s rallies with 10,000+ participants? - Chris Evans

From The Athletic: When the American flag was raised and “The Star-Spangled Banner” played, Brittney Griner couldn’t hold it in anymore. Tears streamed down her face. “My country fought for me to get back. And I was able to bring back gold for my country.”

MSNBC pundit Lawrence O’Donnell criticized media outlets, including his own, over how several of them covered former President Trump’s Thursday press conference at Mar-a-Lago.

“It was 2016 all over again today,” O’Donnell said Thursday evening on his weeknight program. “Donald Trump spoke for an hour at his home, and all of the cable news networks, including this one, carried it live just like they all did in 2016.”
