Chicago’s Patrick Bertoletti, 39, took the Mustard Belt after wolfing down 58 franks and buns in a neck-and-neck, 10-minute race at Coney Island that saw the leader repeatedly bounce back and forth. It’s the first time a man not named Chestnut has won the contest since 2015, and only the second time in the last 17 years. “I wasn’t going to stop eating until the job was done,” Bertoletti said after securing his first ever win. He managed to out-ete Geoffrey Esper, 49, of Massachusetts who finished second with 53 dogs. Australian James Webb, 35, came in third after chowing down on 52 wieners.

Bertoletti won in a tight, 10-minute race where the leader bounced back and forth. The 39-year-old Bertoletti defeated 13 competitors from around the world in a test to see who can wolf down the most hot dogs in 10 minutes. “I wasn’t going to stop eating until the job was done,” Bertoletti said. Bertoletti bested his prior record of 55 hot dogs at the event, held every Independence Day on New York’s Coney Island. The reigning men’s champion, Joey “Jaws” Chestnut, didn’t attend the competition this year over a sponsorship tiff. Instead, Chestnut will compete against soldiers at a U.S. Army base in El Paso later in the day. Chestnut won 16 out of 17 previous competitions.

I’ll explain why in just a moment: This 4th will be a little different, but I’ll still be eating a whole lot of all-beef hot dogs! I’m stoked to be going to Ft. Bliss, where I’ll be eating against four of their finest soldiers. Watch live on my YouTube channel: https://t.co/Dy6TB796DQStarts at 5pm ET — Joey Chestnut (@joeyjaws) July 2, 2024 Yes, yes…..it’s official — Kamala Harris will be taking his place because she figures if she can swallow multiple bags of dicks over the years (alllllegedly) then surely she can take down a few hot dogs! I kid, I kid. I mean, there’s a reason why the Internet calls her “Heels Up Harris” but I digress. We here at WLTReport cannot confirm if any of these vicious rumors are true, and in fact we ardently stand against them!  Kamala Harris seems like nothing but a great, smart, classy lady! I would also like to go on record as saying polls like this in Twitter are HIGHLY disrespectful! How much dick has Kamala Harris sucked to get to the top? — Hodgetwins (@hodgetwins) July 3, 2024 But back to Joey Chestnut…. He’s not done competing, just banned from Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest. In fact, he’ll be taking on his arch-rival, Kobayashi on September 2nd: 15-year rivals Joey Chestnut and Takeru Kobayashi will be competing in a LIVE hot dog eating competition on Monday, September 2 titled “CHESTNUT VS. KOBAYASHI: UNFINISHED BEEF” Who will be crowned the Glizzy Goat? Full story here: https://t.co/WOhbkg8Crs pic.twitter.com/jSzigKgdC2 — Bleacher Report (@BleacherReport) June 12, 2024 But why is he not involved in the most famous July 4th contest out there? Sponsorships, of course! Joey Chestnut, a 16-time Nathan’s Hot Dog Eating Contest champion, has been banned from the famous competition held on July 4th. A sponsorship to ‘represent another hot dog brand’ is the source of the conflict. A spokesperson for Major League Eating (MLE) said he wouldn’t be allowed to participate in the highly-anticipated hot dog eating contest in New York City’s Coney Island. According to the New York Post, Impossible Foods is the brand in question.

California-born Chestnut has won it 16 times, including every year since 2016. He gobbled a world’s record 76 dogs and buns in 2021 and kept his title with a paltry 62 down the hatch last year. He was expected to once again take his usual spot for the hot dog contest on the stage at the corner of Stillwell and Surf avenues — one block from the famous Boardwalk and a Coney Island tradition since 1916 — until the unexpected food fight. A rep for Major League Eating (MLE), which Nathan’s sanctions to run the event, said the organizers bent over backwards to meet Chestnut’s various demands. They even agreed to let him participate in a rival Labor Day dog-eating fest to be taped for TV as long as no hot dog brand was mentioned. But they said they drew the line on letting Chestnut pitch for a different hot dog brand. A source said Chestnut was paid $200,000 to appear in the Nathan’s contest last year, and was offered a $1.2 million, four-year contract going forward.

Nathan’s Famous cut ties with Joey Chestnut, the hot dog eating champ, after he partnered with Impossible Foods, a rival company that makes vegan hot dogs. “It is like a gut punch” George Shea, the host of Nathan’s annual Fourth of July contest, said. https://t.co/1cJmKaYaaw pic.twitter.com/cKnq3SlkG5 — The New York Times (@nytimes) June 11, 2024 Per ESPN: “We are devastated to learn that Joey Chestnut has chosen to represent a rival brand that sells plant-based hot dogs rather than competing in the 2024 Nathan’s Famous Fourth of July Hot Dog Eating Contest,” Major League Eating said in a statement. “MLE and Nathan’s went to great lengths in recent months to accommodate Joey and his management team, agreeing to the appearance fee and allowing Joey to compete in a rival unbranded hot dog eating contest on Labor Day. For nearly two decades we have worked under the same basic hot dog exclusivity provisions. However, it seems that Joey and his managers have prioritized a new partnership with a different hot dog brand over our long-time relationship.” Chestnut owns the top 10 performances at the Nathan’s Famous Hot Dog Eating Contest, including downing a record 76 hot dogs and buns in 2021. He ate 62 franks and buns to win last year’s event “Joey Chestnut is an American hero,” MLE’s statement said. “We would love nothing more than to have him at the Nathan’s Famous International Hot Dog Eating Contest, which he has dominated for years. We hope that he returns when he is not representing a rival brand.” Now we have to flashback to perhaps my favorite Joey Chestnut moment of all time.

This is wild. The Washington Post took the liberty of writing Uncle Joe’s farewell speech. The headline: What If Biden Spoke These Words?

Former President Donald Trump hammered President Joe Biden on Thursday, challenging him to another debate as the nation celebrates its 248th birthday. The social media post from Trump comes as Democrats have been itching to dump Biden ever since his disastrous debate performance last week, but have so far been unable to do so. “I have the answer to the Crooked Joe Biden Incompetence Puzzle — Let’s do another Debate, but this time, no holds barred — An all on discussion, with just the two of us on stage, talking about the future of our Country,” Trump said. “The ratings were massive for the First Debate, record setting, in fact, but this one, because of the format, would blow everything away!” Trump said he wants Biden to “explain why he wants Open Borders, with millions of people, and many violent criminals from parts unknown, pouring into our once great Nation, or why he wants Men Playing in Women’s Sports, or demand ALL ELECTRIC VEHICLES within five years, or why he allowed INFLATION TO RUN RAMPANT, destroying the people of our Country, and so much more.” “It would also, under great pressure, prove his ‘competence,’ or lack thereof,” Trump concluded. “Likewise it would be yet another test for me. What a great evening it would be, just the two of us, one on one, in a good, old fashioned Debate, the way they used to be. ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE!!!” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Trump also took at shot at ABC News host George Stephanopoulos, a former Clinton White House official, ahead of his interview with Biden on Friday, which many see as a critical moment for Biden. “The meanest and most vicious Interviewer out there is George Slopadopoulos of FAKE NEWS ABC, one of the worst and most vile Broadcasters in the business — In fact, the home of disgraced ‘reporter’ Brian Ross whose reporting on the Russia, Russia, Russia Hoax was so outlandish that ABC, after defending him at levels not seen before, was forced to put him, and their reputation, out to pasture,” Trump said. “Now ABC, and Liddle’ George, a tiny, angry man, can make up for their past indiscretions and journalistic failures by doing a real interview with Crooked Joe, not a cut up promotion with only his few coherent answers released to the public.” “Let the World know why Joe directed, and allowed his Department of Injustice, and others, to illegally attack his Political Opponent, ME,” he added. “Nothing like this has ever happened in our Country before. Also, ask why he used all Soros Prosecutors and, in particular, a loser like Deranged Jack Smith? The proof is irrefutable – Crooked Joe is a COWARD!!! MAGA2024”

'Hypocritical mayors across the country'

In an interview on "O'Connor & Co." airing on WMAL-FM in Washington, MRC founder and president Brent Bozell reacted to the planned  George Stephanopoulos interview with President Biden on Friday by suggesting Stephanopoulos "ought not be working in journalism" any more after failing to disclose in 2015 that he had donated $75,000 to the Clinton Foundation.  The former Clinton "bimbo eruption" handler ripped investigative reporter/author Peter Schweizer as biased because he had worked for Republicans and received funding from a conservative source. “You used to work for President Bush as a speech writer. You are funded by the Koch brothers,” Stephanopoulos lectured Schweizer in an unusually hostile interview.     Bozell said if Stephanopoulos had been working at a conservative outlet, "he would have been fired in a New York second."  He added that "I've always believed the media were the tip of the spear for the Left," and that without them, the Left could not win. So as the media turns against Biden, "I don't think he survives" politically. Craig Bannister of CNS News reports he had the same message on Varney & Co. on Fox Business Network Wednesday. “Conservatives have been pointing out the obvious for months and months and, in some cases, some people have pointed out for years that this poor guy has been in real decline. “And, all along the media have been saying ‘Oh, no, no, no your terrible conservatives, how awful you are,’ while conservatives look at the obvious.” There are only two possible reasons that media have waited until now to finally begin reporting that Biden has cognitive health problems, Bozell explained: “So, the media either are: “A, as dumb as wallpaper to not have seen the obvious, or “B, they hate Donald Trump so much, they hate him, they despise him so much that they will cover the fact that the leader of the free world may have Alzheimer’s.” Bozell concluded "It’s vitally important the media investigate the severity of President Biden’s health problems, because it’s extremely dangerous for America’s enemies, like Iran and Russia, to be watching and seeing that our president may well be senile." 

As President Joe Biden's re-election bid is roiled by a political firestorm in the wake of his poor debate performance last week, former President Donald Trump suggested that he and Biden face off in a "no holds barred" debate."I have the answer to the Crooked Joe Biden Incompetence Puzzle — Let's do another Debate, but this time, no holds barred - An all on discussion, with just the two of us on stage, talking about the future of our Country. The ratings were massive for the First Debate, record setting, in fact, but this one, because of the format, would blow everything away!" Trump said in a Truth Social post.'Happy Fourth of July to all, including to our highly incapable 'President' ... '"It would also, under great pressure, prove his 'competence,' or lack thereof. Likewise it would be yet another test for me. What a great evening it would be, just the two of us, one on one, in a good, old fashioned Debate, the way they used to be. ANYTIME, ANYWHERE, ANYPLACE!!!" Trump declared.The two candidates are already slated to take part in a debate hosted by ABC News on September 10, which will be moderated by David Muir and Linsey Davis, according to the outlet."Happy Fourth of July to all, including to our highly incapable 'President,'" Trump declared in another Truth Social post. Trump asserted that Biden "choked like a dog during the Debate," and the presumptive 2024 Republican presidential nominee referred to Vice President Kamala Harris as "our potentially new Democrat Challenger, Laffin' Kamala Harris."Like Blaze News?
