Disgraced former Rep. Liz Cheney pressured former President Bush to endorse Vice President Harris during an episode of The New Yorker’s Radio Hour that aired on Friday. “I can’t explain why George W. Bush hasn’t spoken out, but I think it’s time, and I wish that he would,” Cheney said during the recording at The […] The post Liz Cheney Pressures George W.

The White House reportedly canceled the remaining campaign calls that President Joe Biden had listed on his publicly available calendar after he insulted tens of millions of people this week who voted for former President Donald Trump, calling them “garbage.” The campaign calls were not officially affiliated with the Harris campaign, Fox News reported. The organizations Biden was set to speak to did not disclose whether the calls happened after they were removed from his calendar. Biden has no official events with the Harris campaign before Election Day next week. NEWS: Multiple campaign calls that were publicly advised on President Biden’s schedule yesterday afternoon were cancelled, FOX News has learned. Organizations that expected the President’s attendance did not immediately respond to inquiries about whether the zoom calls still… — Jacqui Heinrich (@JacquiHeinrich) November 1, 2024 The move comes after Biden declared Trump supporters “garbage” during a campaign call Tuesday night with a Latino voter outreach group. “Donald Trump has no character. He doesn’t give a damn about the Latino community,” Biden claimed. “Just the other day, a speaker at his rally called Puerto Rico a floating island of garbage,” Biden continued, referencing remarks that were made at Trump’s rally at Madison Square Garden in New York City over the weekend by an insult comedian. “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters,” Biden said. “His demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American. It’s totally contrary to everything we’ve done, everything we’ve been.” WATCH: President Joe Biden: “The only garbage I see floating out there is [Trump] supporters.” pic.twitter.com/9teSUOytqC — Steve Guest (@SteveGuest) October 30, 2024 Officials in the Biden-Harris White House altered the official transcript of Biden’s remarks at the event as they sought to stave off negative news coverage just days before the election. The Associated Press reported that the alteration of official government records drew objections from the federal workers who document all of the president’s remarks for historical reference. Official White House stenographers recorded Biden stating: “The only garbage I see floating out there is his supporters — his — his demonization of Latinos is unconscionable, and it’s un-American.” MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ However, Biden-Harris officials altered the quote by adding an apostrophe, changing it to “supporter’s” instead of “supporters.” The change was made only after the White House press team “conferred with the president,” according to an email obtained by the publication. Federal officials pushed back, noting that the interference by the White House was “a breach of protocol and spoilation of transcript integrity between the Stenography and Press Offices.” “If there is a difference in interpretation, the Press Office may choose to withhold the transcript but cannot edit it independently,” the supervisor wrote. “Our Stenography Office transcript — released to our distro, which includes the National Archives — is now different than the version edited and released to the public by Press Office staff.” The supervisor, who is a career White House employee, said that urgency of a transcript’s release was not their concern and that what mattered was that it was authentic and legitimate. The edit came as the administration tried to contain the fallout from Biden’s remarks during the final days of the presidential race. House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY) and House Oversight and Accountability Chairman James Comer (R-KY) on Wednesday accused White House staff of “releasing a false transcript” of Biden’s remarks, and said that they were considering opening an investigation into the matter. “Unsurprising too were the White House’s actions after he said them,” they said in a joint statement. “Instead of apologizing or clarifying President Biden’s words, the White House instead sought to change them (despite them being recorded on video) by releasing a false transcript of his remarks.” “The move is not only craven, but it also appears to be in violation of federal law, including the Presidential Records Act of 1978,” they added. “White House staff cannot rewrite the words of the President of the United States to be more politically on message. Though President Biden’s relevance continues to diminish, his words continue to matter, even as they become increasingly divisive and erratic.”

The U.S. Department of Defense announced this week that it is moving military assets to the Middle East to deter continued Iranian aggression against the U.S. and Israel after Iran vowed this week to hit Israel following last week’s strikes in Iran. The Pentagon ordered the deployment of “additional ballistic missile defense destroyers, fighter squadron and tanker aircraft, and several U.S. Air Force B-52 long-range strike bombers to the region.” The forces will arrive in the region in the coming months as the USS Abraham Lincoln Carrier Strike Group prepares to leave the region. “These deployments build on the recent decision to deploy the Terminal High Altitude Area Defense (THAAD) missile defense system to Israel as well as DoD’s sustained Amphibious Ready Group Marine Expeditionary Unit (ARG/MEU) posture in the Eastern Mediterranean,” a statement said. Pentagon Press Secretary Maj. Gen. Pat Ryder said that the movements demonstrated the “flexible nature of U.S. global defense posture and U.S. capability to deploy world-wide on short notice to meet evolving national security threats.” The statement added that the U.S. would respond if Iran or its terrorist proxy groups throughout the region targeted U.S. personnel or interests. The repositioning of U.S. forces comes after Iran signaled this week that it would now respond to Israel’s limited strike on Iranian military and missile production facilities last week after it initially sought to downplay the incident because it wanted to avoid escalating a military conflict against a far superior opponent. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ Iranian state-controlled media highlighted remarks from two top officials this week who said that they would respond after Israel struck the country following Iran’s decision to fire 180 ballistic missiles at Israel. “Iran’s response to the Zionist aggression is definite,” said General Ali Fadavi, the deputy commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps (IRGC). “We have never left an aggression unanswered in 40 years. We are capable of destroying all that the Zionists possess with one operation.” Gholamhossein Mohammadi Golpayegani, head of Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei’s office, said that Iran would deliver a “fierce, tooth-breaking response.” Analysts say that Iran is stuck between a rock and a hard place because if it does not respond, it will appear weak and lose credibility with its allies and terrorist proxy groups. Not responding will also embolden opposition groups in the country that are gaining popularity as the country increasingly sours on the regime. However, if Iran responds, it risks provoking a much greater response from Israel after the nation has repeatedly proven that it has significant military and technological advantages over Iran. Israel wiped out Iran’s air defenses during its strikes last week, allowing the Israel Air Force (IAF) to operate freely over Iranian airspace. “We hit its underbelly,” said Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. “The boastful talk by the Iranian regime’s heads cannot conceal and compensate for the fact that Israel now has greater freedom to operate in Iran than ever before.” The Wall Street Journal reported that Israel has directly conveyed to Iran that if it launches a response, Israel will “mount a far more aggressive attack in return.” Iran is also considering having one of its proxies launch a strike against Israel believing that going that route will protect it from an Israeli response. Kamal Kharrazi, Iran’s Strategic Council on Foreign Relations head, said on Friday that the Islamic regime now possesses the technological capabilities to create a nuclear weapon. Iran already has enough enriched uranium that — if it decided to break out — could build a weapon in roughly a week, assuming that they have technological abilities. “We now have the technical capabilities necessary to produce nuclear weapons,” he claimed. “We are ready for war but we do not want to escalate because we have currently proven our ability to deter from doing so.” “The matter is up to the Israelis – if they really want to continue, we will respond to them,” he continued. “Our missile capabilities are clear to everyone and everyone believes in them, and we have proven that during our operations.”
