Dems Want Clarence Thomas’ Free Trips To Russia Investigated

Donald Trump's interview with the National Association of Black Journalists event in Chicago was an absolute shitshow. The felon went off the rails, demeaning Black journalists, calling ABC "fake news," and questioning Kamala Harris's race. Trump spoke about "Black jobs," with no one on the panel knowing what the hell he was talking about.

Eccentric billionaires like Peter Thiel, Elon Musk, and other members of the "PayPal Mafia" love Donald Trump. But leaders in business and economics support Kamala Harris for President. Respected business expert Jeffrey Sonnenfeld of the Yale School of Management said many CEOs he's talked to are "euphoric" about Harris’ candidacy. Sonnenfeld wrote a TIME essay, "7 Reasons Why CEOs Are Excited About Kamala Harris." Sonnenfeld explained, “Executives’ excitement for Kamala Harris is both stylistic and substantive—with her instinctive preference for centrist governance, constructive problem solving, and collaboration over vilification.” Harris Already Backed By Biggest American Donors In the short time Harris has officially been running for president, she's already backed by some of the biggest donors in America.

"White Dudes for Harris," celebrated by Jeff Bridges, was banned from X by Elon Musk. Nevertheless, they raised $4 million for the Harris campaign. This has flummoxed the frat house known as "Gutfeld!" Brian Kilmeade guest-hosted the program and asked Tyrus if he was disappointed he wasn't included in their group.

The felon's combative demeanor was even more extreme than we've witnessed in the past. It was like clips from 2016 combined to form an absolute shitshow. While taking questions at the National Convention of Black Journalists, Trump demeaned two of the moderators, ABC News' Rachel Scott and Semafor's Kadia Goba, then spoke about 'Black jobs' before questioning whether Kamala Harris is actually Black. "Some of your own supporters, including Republicans on Capitol Hill, have labeled Vice President Kamala Harris, who is the first black and Asian American woman to serve as vice president and be on a major party ticket, as a DEI hire," Rachel Scott said.

Carpetbanker Eric Hovde, and his pornstache, went on Fox to discuss his campaign to oust Wisconsin's smart senator, Tammy Baldwin. Right off the bat, Fox showed a graphic of one of their own polls showing Hovde losing to Baldwin by 11 points. The host asked Hovde how he would make up for the lost ground when he revealed that he had moved!

Former President Donald Trump used his turn before the nation’s largest professional association of Black journalists to question the racial identity of his rival for the White House this fall, telling a shocked National Association of Black Journalists conference in Chicago that Vice President Kamala Harris “happened to turn Black and now she wants to be known as Black.” [time-brightcove not-tgx=”true”] It took Trump all of 10 days running in a head-to-head against the first woman and first incumbent of Black and Indian-American heritage to openly question her background. “I don’t know.
