[Daily Mail, where America gets its news] President Joe Biden briefly sported one of former President Donald Trump's red MAGA hats in a move the White House said was to show 'bipartisan unity.'
Biden, Trump and Democratic nominee, Vice President Kamala Harris, attended multiple 9/11 commemoration ceremonies Wednesday - a day after Trump and Harris first met on the debate stage.
During a chat with firefighters in Shanksville, Pennsylvania - where United Flight 93 crashed - Biden was briefly captured wearing a bright red Trump hat.
Biden's move came 24 hours after he raised eyebrows by saying he would 'do 9/11' as he left the White House for New York on Tuesday night.
'At the Shanksville Fire Station, President Joe Biden spoke about the country's bipartisan unity after 9/11 and said we needed to get back to that,' White House spokesperson Andrew Bates posted to X. 'As a gesture, he gave a hat to a Trump supporter who then said that in the same spirit, POTUS should put on his Trump cap.'
[American Liberty] Shortly after predicting the end of legacy media, former Fox Host Megyn Kelly found herself vindicated following the first presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris. She blasted moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for what she described as a partisan hack job that completely abandoned their responsibilities as independent parties in a critical conversation designed to help voters make informed decisions in November.
Kelly went on to assert that Muir and Davis were debating Trump alongside Harris, and trying to help her win.
The Daily Caller reports:
Sirius XM's Megyn Kelly scolded ABC News moderators David Muir and Linsey Davis for "trying to steal" the 2024 presidential election during the debate Tuesday between Republican nominee Donald Trump and Democratic nominee Kamala Harris.
Trump took to Truth Social after Tuesday night's debate in Philadelphia and accused ABC News of teaming up against him with Harris. Kelly expressed the same view that the moderators and Harris debated Trump "three on one," blasting the network and the media industry for what she says is pro-Democrat bias.
Kelly dismissed what Democrats have called a "victory" as a fluke engineered by the moderators.

I know, fantasy, but sue to classify the video as Harris campaign advertising time, and make them play a 90 minute Trump ad.
Series of 5-10 minute shorts covering various topics - on the ground in Springfield OH, the homeless Bidenvilles, cost of a California cheeseburger, what is Unrealized Gains Tax, replays of her 2019 campaign, Harris' classic 'space' talk with the hired child actors, how the states came up with their own abortion laws, my grocery bill 2019 and now, so on and so on.
[Red State] There's a lot of palaver about who won the presidential debate on Tuesday, both in terms of style and substance.
But ultimately, the person who "wins" isn't the person who can make the most weird faces or have the greatest throwaway line. It's the person who can get the undecideds and the independents
The problem for Kamala Harris is that she had a need to define herself, unlike President Donald Trump. What the independent voters wanted to hear was how Harris is different than Joe Biden, whose policies they have not liked, and what are her policies for the future?
As I noted in a couple of my earlier stories about folks in the CBS and Reuters focus groups, the voters didn't feel they got those answers. CNN also tracked that Trump actually gained points on the most important issue for people, leading her by 20 points on the economy, 23 points on immigration, and six on leadership as commander-in-chief.

All the spin I've heard about the debate is that it was a disaster for Trump. I dunno. I only watched about two minutes of it but I could see in that two minutes two important facts.
1) Trump came off looking like an angry old man. Well, they tried to kill him. I'd be pissed off too but it's not the way to win an election.
2) ABC was most definitely interjecting Democrat propaganda with their real time "fact checking" of almost everything Trump said. But who is checking the checkers?

It is tough getting the business from my wife for 10 minutes for not loading the dishwasher like she does.
Guy went 90 with two and a half women just making shit up.
So far my barometers have been largely quiet, the best post debate slam being something like, "We have the most robust economy in the world, why would you want to elect the guy with 8 bankruptcies?"
What I'm not seeing is pro Harris she did so well! other than the shills and influencers. Even the Taylor Swift payoff wasn't about how well Harris performed, just some generic I Did My Homework bullshit.

Did a quick check of Amazon, Ebay, China's Alibaba.com for Audio Earring vendors. There are a number of Female Jewelry looking Audio Earring vendors.
But to be effectively heard, wouldn't it have to be in the ear, not on it?
Otherwise, it would be heard by others in the room?
Always a good time to take a nap when you don't give a fcuk. [FoxNews] Ranking member slammed 'partisan hearing' before mothers testified about their children's murders at hands of illegals.
Rep. Jerrold Nadler, D-N.Y., is under fire after he appeared to close his eyes and lower his head during congressional testimony on the impacts of migrant crime on victims' families Tuesday – prompting criticism that leading Democrats are not taking the issue seriously and have disrespected those in mourning.
Reps. Chip Roy, R-Texas, and Dan Bishop, R-N.C., skewered the ranking member of the House Judiciary Committee after the incident had people in the audience fuming.
The photo, with a box of tissues in the foreground, also shows an aide next to Nadler, looking at his cellphone as mothers who lost their daughters to suspected foreign rapists and killers shared their traumatic stories of loss with the committee.
"One of the ladies that came with me, she took a picture of the Democrats on the other side as we were speaking and telling our stories, us, the mothers, mothers crying, telling our stories – and one of them is sleeping, and the other one's on his phone," said Patty Morin, whose daughter Rachel was brutally raped and murdered after police say an illegal immigrant attacked her on a jogging trail near her home in Maryland.
Cathie Groenewold, a church friend of Morin's who took the photo, said she found Nadler's demeanor deeply offensive.
"I was astounded at the careless attitude of Jerry Nadler and… the man sitting to his right," she told Fox News Digital. "They are pouring out their hearts, these women, who have lost their children to fentanyl and the most gruesome murders you could imagine, and they don’t have the common decency to sit up and give them their undivided attention."
Nadler and other Democrats appeared to treat the hearing as a partisan "stunt," she said.
"I'm sorry, but these women are drawing attention to a serious issue," she said. "It's not a stunt, and they weren't coerced into coming."
Morin's 37-year-old daughter was a mother of five and small business owner. Her alleged killer is a 23-year-old from El Salvador named Victor Antonio Martinez-Hernandez, who is also suspected of killing another woman in his home country and sexually assaulting a woman and her 9-year-old daughter in a Los Angeles home invasion.
At the start of the hearing, the longtime New York congressman began by sharing his condolences with the witnesses.
"I cannot imagine how difficult this loss has been for you," he said.
Then he pivoted to calling the proceedings "one more partisan hearing designed to divide us and to score political points before an election."
Among the eight witnesses, four lost their children in connection with the border crisis.
Then he pivoted to calling the proceedings "one more partisan hearing designed to divide us and to score political points before an election."

[FoxNews] On the anniversary of 9/11, White House National Security Council communications adviser John Kirby
“Communications is my specialty!”
dismissed the concerns of military veterans critical of the botched withdrawal from Afghanistan, writing in response to a Fox News Digital press inquiry that there's "no use" weighing in on the veterans' views.
"Obviously no use in responding. A ‘handful’ of vets indeed and all of one stripe," Kirby said in a "reply all" email chain Wednesday afternoon that appeared to be intended for White House staffers, but which also included Fox News Digital.
Fox News Digital had reached out to the White House earlier Wednesday afternoon regarding critical comments from four veterans, including Rep. Cory Mills, R-Fla., who blasted Kirby for his Monday press conference that they said provided "cover" for the Biden administration's 2021 withdrawal.
Included in that initial reachout were quotes from the four veterans, and Fox News Digital asked the White House if it had any comment to include on the vets' blistering criticisms of Kirby and the White House's handling of the Afghanistan withdrawal. The email chain was forwarded to White House staffers on the National Security Council, before Kirby replied to all on the chain that there's "no use in responding."
Kirby's message was sent in error, with him following up with a Fox News Digital reporter, "Clearly, I didn’t realize you were on the chain."
Clearly.
Kirby sent the email while traveling with President Biden on the anniversary of 9/11.
