Hysterical! Oblivious Dems Trolled by Comedian at DNC
Comedian Lionel McGloin infiltrated the DNC on Thursday to troll numerous prominent Democrat lawmakers and supporters who thought he was a fawning journalist.
McGloin asked a DNC delegate what she would pick if she had to choose between access to abortions or democracy.
“If I had to choose…I guess access to abortion,” she said.

Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-N.Y) also said “rich white men” would be taxed more if Democrats remained in power.
“Can we please this year, it’d be so brat, have a higher tax rate for rich white men?” McGloin asked.
Nadler replied, “Well if we have a Democratic Congress, we certainly will.”
“Yeah baby! Tax those rich old whiteys!” McGloin responded.
McGloin also managed to troll New York AG Letitia James, Chris Cuomo, Sens. Raphael Warnock and Ed Markey Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg, former Trump lawyer Michael Cohen, director JJ Abrams, former Trump adviser Kellyanne Conway, surrogate Harry Sisson, Cornel West, and streamer Hasan Piker.

Harris Nabs CIA Endorsement as Democrats Promise More War, Foreign Intervention
A former chief of the controversial intelligence agency voiced his support for the vice president at the Democratic National Convention Thursday.
US Vice President Kamala Harris signaled she would continue her predecessor’s hawkish foreign policy in Gaza and Ukraine Thursday as an ex-CIA director publicly endorsed the Democratic presidential candidate.
“As president I will stand strong with Ukraine and our NATO allies,” Harris declared during her acceptance speech, voicing strong support for Kiev’s US-backed proxy war against Russia.
Former intelligence chief Leon Panetta also delivered a speech praising Harris during which the controversial figure claimed he was “proud” to have served in the US Army and as CIA director. US military aggression throughout the Middle East during the so-called “War on Terror” is estimated to have caused the deaths of at least 4.5 million people while the CIA has been implicated in numerous human rights violations.
“The Democrats really showed that this is a hawkish party and really neoconservatives are in charge of the party,” noted CovertAction Magazine managing editor Jeremy Kuzmarov on Sputnik’s The Final Countdown program. “I mean, they brought out Leon Panetta earlier tonight. He’s a former CIA director who was a key mastermind of the drone war and a key figure behind Russiagate and a key supporter of Hillary Clinton and chief of staff in the Bill Clinton White House.”
“In her speech [Harris] was talking about how [former US President Donald] Trump supposedly coddled [foreign leaders] like Putin, and that’s totally false,” he continued. “Trump had a pretty hardline policy toward Russia. He pulled out of the INF Treaty. He ramped up weapons supplies to Ukraine. So that’s just like an extreme right-wing position that they’re adopting.”
“They’re celebrating this war in Ukraine [that] siphoned off billions of hard-earned taxpayer dollars into a sinkhole just like Afghanistan, and a lot of those weapons have been stolen. And this party is cheerleading for that. So that’s where they are.”
Corruption has long been recognized as endemic in Ukraine, which experts have noted is “the most corrupt nation in Europe.” Earlier this year, a massive corruption scandal was uncovered that saw almost $40 million in US aid stolen by officials in the country’s defense ministry. In June, it was revealed that Western military-grade weapons supplied to Ukraine have been sold on the black market, ending up in the hands of terrorists and European drug cartels.
Various neoconservative figures such as Iraq War architect Bill Kristol have shifted allegiances to the Democratic Party in recent years as Republicans have become increasingly critical of foreign intervention under the banner of Trump’s “America First” ethos. Recent polling shows increasing numbers of Americans believe the US has spent too much money funding Ukraine’s quixotic proxy war on Russia.
“The money that’s got into Ukraine is far greater than Israel and many civilians have been killed with those US weapons,” noted Kuzmarov. Kiev has increasingly launched attacks on Russian soil in recent months, killing a number of civilians including children. Neo-Nazi groupings in Ukraine’s military such as the notorious Azov Battalion* have made their ethno-supremacist intentions clear, with Azov founder Andriy Biletsky declaring his intention to “lead the white races of the world in a final crusade … against Semite-led Untermenschen [subhumans].”
“The reporting on Ukraine has been abysmal,” Kuzmarov claimed. “It’s been totally Russophobic, totally one-sided. The plight of the eastern Ukrainian people who suffer like the people of Gaza has never struck the consciousness of the public because it’s barely been reported at all in any outlet, even alternative. I think [even] the alternative media is short on this.”
“Not a dime [is] being raised for the children in Donbass who’ve been shelled and hit with mortar strikes for the last 10 years or more, and not a dime being raised in American churches for that,” host Steve Gill lamented.
Family of NINE Forced To Go Off Grid By Utility Co. For Refusing Smart Meter
The utility company here in Tennessee, Meriweather Lewis Electric Cooperative (MLEC), has turned off the Keen family’s electricity because they refused to have a smart meter installed on their property.
Christy and Judson Keen and their 7 children have been without electricity since July 8th.
Other utilities in the state allow customers to opt-out of smart meters.
There is no valid reason for MLEC to refuse the Keen’s to opt-out.
Children’s Health Defense has more:
The Keens are currently using gas-powered generators that allow them to operate their household appliances (freezers, etc) and farm equipment at two (2) hour increments, three (3) times a day. They need help with the gasoline expenditures. To lower their costs moving forward, they would like to purchase a tri-fuel generator that can run on natural gas, which is less expensive than gasoline or propane. A new generator costs approximately $1500.
Also, the Keens need a device called a “sine tamer” to condition the electricity coming to their home, as the fluctuations inherent in generator power are burning up their appliances. They’ve lost one freezer. Another freezer is making horrible sounds from the motor, as is their only ceiling fan. Who can afford to replace all their appliances? The device they need to clean up their electricity, a sine tamer cost $1800

US Secret Service Suspends Agents in Trump Shooting Probe
The US Secret Service has reportedly suspended a regional director and several agents as it probes the “operational failure” that almost got Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump killed last month.
Trump was speaking at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania on July 13 when an assassin opened fire from the roof of a nearby building. While Trump was only grazed because he turned his head at the very last moment, the shooter killed one member of the audience and seriously injured two more.
On Friday, CBS News reported that the USSS “has placed multiple agents on leave, including the head of the Pittsburgh field office,” citing an anonymous source familiar with the matter.
Secret Service spokesman Anthony Guglielmi declined to confirm or deny the claim, saying only that the “mission assurance review is progressing.”
Shortly after the CBS report, Missouri Senator Josh Hawley, a Republican, published a letter to the acting USSS director Ronald Rowe, saying that a whistleblower has contradicted his sworn testimony to Congress.
The whistleblower, said Hawley, alleged that “officials at Secret Service headquarters encouraged agents in charge of the trip not to request any additional security assets in its formal manpower request–effectively denying these assets through informal means.” Rowe, however, told Congress that no assets were denied.
“You must explain this apparent contradiction immediately,” Hawley wrote. “Your actions to place some field agents on leave are not enough.”
According to the Secret Service and the FBI, 20-year-old Thomas Matthew Crooks managed to get onto the roof of a building overlooking Trump’s rally with a rifle and fire at least eight shots before he was neutralized by a USSS counter-sniper.
Kimberly Cheatle, who headed the Secret Service at the time, told reporters that the building was not part of the security perimeter and agents weren’t placed on the roof because it was too sloped to be safe. She ended up resigning ten days after the shooting.
The FBI, which is investigating the assassination attempt, has not published any findings about Crooks or his motivation. Congressman Clay Higgins, a Louisiana Republican, has accused the bureau of effectively covering up the shooting and destroying evidence.
According to Higgins, the FBI “released the crime scene” after just three days, cleaned up the blood and other “biological evidence” from the roof, and allowed Crooks’ family to cremate him on July 23, thereby making it impossible to verify any autopsy results – which were still pending as of August 5.
Maher & Carville Stunned By RFK Jr.’s Endorsement of Trump: ‘What Do We Make of This?’
HBO’s “Real Time” host Bill Maher and Democrat political strategist James Carville struggled to come to grips with Robert F. Kennedy’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump on Friday.
“RFK Jr is pulling out. He did say ‘I am giving my endorsement to Donald Trump,’” Maher said on his show. “For those of us who are a certain age who grew up with the Kennedys, to have a Kennedy endorse not just any Republican, but the worst one ever, what do we make of this?”
Bill Maher and James Carville represent devastated Democrats everywhere as they struggle to process the RFK Jr endorsement of Trump:

Rather than offer an honest assessment of why RFK Jr. would choose to defect from the liberals to endorse a Republican, Carville simply dismissed him as crazy.
“Every family has a…whatever. That boy ain’t right. There’s something weird…Something’s wrong. He hit his head. I don’t know what,” Carville asserted.
Maher retorted, “I wouldn’t go that far.”
During his address to the nation Friday, RFK Jr condemned Democrats for becoming a shadow of their former selves, saying they’d “become the party of war, censorship, corruption, Big Pharma, Big Tech, Big Ag, and big money.”
The nephew of former President John F. Kennedy went on to describe how Democrats subverted democracy by blocking his campaign from appearing in ballots in several states while claiming to save it.
RFK also stated he’s siding with Trump because he believes the alliance would “maximize my chances to save America’s children and restore national health.”
His sister Kathleen Kennedy Townsend issued a statement on behalf of the Kennedy family condemning RFK’s endorsement of Trump as a “betrayal” and adding, “We believe in Harris and Walz.”
“We want an America filled with hope and bound together by a shared vision of a brighter future, a future defined by individual freedom, economic promise and national pride,” she wrote.
This exchange between Maher and Carville represents confused and stunned Democrats everywhere who realize RFK Jr.’s endorsement of Trump signals a major shift in the political atmosphere that doesn’t bode well for Kamala Harris.
