> Elon Means Business
I have so much admiration for Elon Musk. Last night, he announced that starting today, and lasting until night Monday, he will be giving a series of talks throughout Pennsylvania. If you’d like to attend one of his talks, there’s no attendance fee. You just need to have signed his petition supporting free speech and the right to bear arms, and you must have voted in this election. To make it even better, Elon Musk has donated $75 million to his America PAC. Musk is all in for Trump.

>The BS in CBS!
On yesterday’s show, we played an amended video of Speaker Johnson’s full statement on FEMA and the aftermath of Hurricane Helene after CBS had broadcast an edited version that cut Johnson’s responses short to deceive viewers.
Well, consumers are tired of the BS of CBS. A majority of Americans want CBS News to release the full transcript of its “60 Minutes” interview with Vice President Kamala Harris, following more accusations of deceptive editing. A poll shows 85% of voters, including 88% of Republicans and 87% of Democrats, believe CBS should release the full transcript. Additionally, 53% think the interview was edited to make Harris "look better," while 47% believe it was "fair and objective."
The findings follow an Associated Press report that the "60 Minutes" interview with Kamala Harris was cut from 45 minutes to a 20-minute TV segment, with a separate 6-minute clip posted on social media… I’m sure if it was Trump, and the interview went bad, the transcript would’ve been released before even being asked!

>Allies to China
We all know Tim Walz has made some shady trips to China, but he’s not the only Kamala ally who has.
Ron Busby, president of the U.S. Black Chambers and a frequent visitor to the Biden-Harris White House, met with Chinese Communist Party officials during an unreported 10-day trip to China. Busby, along with New York officials and business leaders, including then-Gov. Andrew Cuomo's chief diversity officer Rose Rodriguez, traveled to Beijing, Shanghai, and Xi'an as part of the "New Majority Alliance." Busby's Facebook profile features plenty of photos from his China trip, including a selfie captioned, "On the way to China. Spreading the voice of Black businesses around the globe." Another photo shows him and the delegation seated around a table with the CCP hammer and sickle emblem in the background. After the trip, Busby posted that the U.S., Africa, and China "need each other for the new sustainability." … Do we really though?

II: WHITE HOUSE 2024
TRUMP 2024
Written by Denny
Former President Donald Trump acknowledged Tuesday that reversing the Harris-Biden administration's immigration policies will be a "very tough thing," predicting that those opposed to his mass deportation plan will likely rely on propaganda to resist it.
Speaking at a rally in Atlanta, Trump highlighted the kind of emotional tactics he expects his opponents to use, saying, "We’ll get some [immigrants] out and then they’ll get somebody else who has a nice look and a child — and that’ll be the poster. It’ll be, ‘Oh, how horrible.’" He warned supporters of the predictable pushback while reaffirming his commitment to what he described as "the largest deportation program in America."
Trump emphasized the urgency of his plan, stating, "It’s a very tough thing to fix, but we’re going to fix it because we have no choice." His approach, he said, would begin with prioritizing "horrible criminals" for deportation, and he referenced the tragic case in Georgia involving the death of Laken Riley at the hands of a Venezuelan migrant gang member.
ALSO: According to reports from the Philadelphia Inquirer, Trump is set to work the fry cooker at a McDonald's in Pennsylvania this weekend. This move comes after weeks of Trump questioning Vice President Kamala Harris' claims that she worked at McDonald's during her college years. Trump, who has criticized Harris for making "fake promises" and doubting her story about working at the fast-food chain, plans to serve food during a campaign stop in the key swing state.
Harris repeatedly claimed she worked at McDonald's in the 1980s while attending college, a claim she included in a recent campaign ad and a September interview on MSNBC. However, fact-checkers like Snopes have noted that there is no firm evidence, such as employment records or photos, to verify this.
HARRIS 2024
Written by DML
Minnesota Governor Tim Walz has received the lowest ranking for fiscal responsibility in the Cato Institute's 2024 Fiscal Policy Report Card, placing him at the bottom of all 50 U.S. governors.
Walz’s failing grade of “F” with a score of just 19 reflects his administration's consistent pattern of reckless tax hikes and ballooning government spending. The report criticizes Walz for overseeing a 36% increase in Minnesota’s general fund budget, from $51.9 billion in the 2022-2023 biennium to a staggering $70.5 billion in 2024-2025.
This drastic increase in spending has drawn significant criticism, especially as it comes from multiple tax hikes targeting not only high-income earners but also middle-class families and businesses. The report also states that despite Minnesota experiencing budget surpluses, Walz pushed for higher taxes, which appears to be more about punishing taxpayers than addressing any actual revenue needs. The governor’s economic mismanagement has made Minnesota less attractive to businesses, stifling economic growth and imposing unnecessary burdens on working families.
The report compares Walz's record to other Democratic governors who also received failing grades, like Wisconsin's Tony Evers and New York's Kathy Hochul, underscoring the widespread fiscal irresponsibility in states led by Democrats.
ALSO: A new poll has found that nearly two-thirds of American Jews view former President Donald Trump as being supportive of Israel. Despite this, 62% of American Jews reportedly plan to vote for Vice President Kamala Harris in the upcoming election.
III: BORDERLESS
Written by Ryan
Three illegal immigrants from Honduras were arrested last week in Palm Beach County, Florida, for sexual crimes against a child, according to police.
The Palm Beach County Sheriff’s Office identified the suspects as Selvin Lopez Lopez, Erick Lopez Lopez, and Jesersson Lopez Lopez. The trio faces multiple charges, including capital sexual battery and lewd behavior involving a minor under 12.
The "despicable behavior" occurred from August 2024 until the suspects' arrest last week, police said.
Investigators found that Jesersson Lopez Lopez allegedly crossed the border illegally in 2023 and was given a court date for 2028. Selvin and Erick Lopez Lopez illegally entered the U.S. in 2021 and turned themselves into Border Patrol but failed to schedule a court date following release.
The three Lopez Lopezs are now being held in the Palm Beach County Jail on no bond.
