George Santos had a tumultuous time in Congress, but he was elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2022 serving New York’s 3rd District. As with most people, his story is perhaps different than the MSM portrays it, namely winning an election as a Republican in Long Island and Queens, New York — no small feat: Political Career and Recent Work George Santos was elected in 2022 to represent New York’s 3rd Congressional District, covering parts of Long Island and Queens. Running as a Republican, he campaigned on themes of economic recovery, public safety, and conservative family values. He is also one of the first openly gay Republicans in Congress, a milestone for LGBTQ+ representation in the GOP. Santos emphasizes fiscal responsibility and reducing taxes, advocating for small businesses and law enforcement. In his first term, Santos focused on issues such as lowering taxes, addressing New York’s high cost of living, and supporting pro-business policies. He has also voiced strong support for Israel and advocated for conservative social policies. Private Sector Work and Background Before entering politics, Santos claimed experience in finance, citing roles at prominent firms such as Citigroup and Goldman Sachs. In 2021, he founded Devolder Organization LLC, a firm engaged in capital introduction, real estate, and consulting. Although some of his professional claims were later questioned, Santos has described his business work as central to his understanding of economic challenges facing Americans. Controversies and Investigations Following his election, Santos faced scrutiny over discrepancies in his resume and background, with federal investigations exploring campaign finance questions. Despite these controversies, Santos remains in Congress, committed to his policy goals and serving his district, with supporters viewing his persistence as a testament to resilience in the face of challenges. Ok, so now he’s back in the news making serious allegations about Kamala Harris attending Diddy “White Parties” just a few years ago. EDITOR’S NOTE: we at WLTReport.com have not been able to independently verify these allegations, but we are reporting on the claims made by a former U.S. Congressman. Take a look: My source alleges that the NYT is holding back info and not reporting on a story due to fear it will hurt VP Harris on the final days of the campaign trail.

This story allegedly places her at attendance of a White party hosted by Diddy a few years back in which there was bad behavior taking place by some other guests. Furthermore I’ve spoken with an insider at NBC and they tell me that NBC similarly has a story of VP Harris that pertains to Diddy and they have yet to run it. After the viral video two days ago a person reached out to me from WAPO saying they are sitting on Diddy related Kamala stories. The VP was not the subject of the alleged investigative journalism into Diddy and was accidentally found in attendance at a White party years back. Here are some questions: Why did Harris then not question the behavior she saw? Why didn’t she do something as the top cop of SF at the time? What about Me Too? So many questions…. So many allegations being casted… Why is the media not publishing this? I want a fair reporting stream and the American people deserve to know what’s really out there about both candidates! This feels like the Hunter Laptop story from 2020… only this time they are allegedly concealing the story in a distinctive systematic form. He followed up with more here: If all these sources are true we have a much bigger issue on our hands, that there are “news” publications that are holding back stories they deem “hurtful” or non beneficial to either side is a departure form the fundamentals of journalism. Americans deserve to have a free and… — George Santos (@MrSantosNY) October 26, 2024 And then he clarified that he does not have the alleged tapes in his personal possession: Clarification… There happens to be an inexplicable expectation I posses the material and video that was described to me by someone on the inside…. If I had the alleged video in question I would have post it a long time ago! — George Santos (@MrSantosNY) October 26, 2024 If true, this would be an election-ended and career-ending story. Is that why the “MSM” is allegedly sitting on the story? Do you think it’s real? And follow up: If yes, do you believe we will ever see them?

Kamala 1.0 did not work

After getting their set cancelled by adverse weather at last month’s Louder Than Life, thrash icons Slayer will be back for the 2025 bill

Over 250,000 Washington Post subscribers, or 10% of the newspaper’s customers, have canceled their subscriptions after owner Jeff Bezos blocked its editorial board from publishing an endorsement of Vice President Kamala Harris, according to a report. 

Fires likely torching hundreds of ballots in drop boxes near Portland, Oregon, on Monday were set ablaze using devices that carried the message “Free Gaza.” On Monday, fires were set in two election drop boxes located in Portland and Vancouver, Washington. The boxes were located just 15 miles apart. Investigators looking into the drop box fires have yet to arrest any suspects, according to The New York Times. A third ignition device was found at another drop box in Vancouver with the message “Free Palestine” on it, as well. The devices have been sent to a lab in Huntsville, Alabama, that specializes in analyzing explosive devices. “There was enough evidence collected at all three scenes that lead us to believe that all three incidents are connected, and we cannot get into more detail,” Portland Police Bureau spokesman Mike Benner said Monday, according to the Times. The police released footage of a vehicle suspected to be involved in the incidents – a dark, early 2000s Volvo – and asked the public to help identify the vehicle and the driver. The ignition device in Vancouver destroyed hundreds of ballots after the fire suppressant system failed, and authorities are asking voters who placed ballots in that dropbox on Saturday morning to request a replacement ballot. In the drop box in Portland, the fire suppression system worked successfully and protected almost all the ballots. Three were damaged, and election officials are reaching out to the voters to whom they belonged. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ The Democratic Party has been riled by anti-Israel and pro-Palestinian activists who have pressured the party and White House to cut off support to Israel in the conflict against Iran and its proxy groups in the Gaza Strip, Lebanon, Yemen, and elsewhere in the Middle East. Thousands of protesters showed up to the Democratic National Convention in Chicago in August to protest against Israel. Hundreds of organizations partnered to coordinate a mass march through the streets of Chicago and protests outside of the convention venue on its opening day. The Department of Homeland Security warned in a report released earlier this month that setting fire to ballot boxes is one of a series of threats that complicate security in the upcoming election.

The 2024 presidential election, along with control of the U.S. House and Senate, could come down to how voters cast their ballots in the vital battleground state of Michigan.  Michigan, with its 15 electoral votes, has been a major focus for the campaigns of both former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris. Voters in the state are also casting their ballots in pivotal House races and a high-profile showdown for the U.S. Senate, where Republican Mike Rogers is running for an open seat against Democratic Rep. Elissa Slotkin.  Here’s everything you need to know about the races in Michigan. Polling Polls have had the battle between Trump and Harris in Michigan close since Harris became the Democrats’ de facto nominee in late July. Harris has led Trump in the Great Lakes State by as many as 2.4 points, but Trump regained a small lead in the polls in October, according to the RealClearPolitics average. The two candidates are neck-and-neck with just a week until the election.  CHECK OUT THE LATEST POLLING ON THE DAILY WIRE’S ELECTION HUB How Michigan Has Voted In The Past Democratic presidential candidates have recently dominated Michigan, winning the state in seven of the last eight elections. Trump’s 2016 victory in Michigan over Hillary Clinton is the only Republican presidential victory in the state since 1992.  What The Candidates Are Saying Both candidates and their running mates have campaigned heavily all over Michigan. During Trump’s stops in Michigan, the former president has focused much of his attention on the economy and car manufacturing, promising voters that he will restore Michigan’s long history of auto dominance.  During a speech at the Detroit Economic Club earlier this month, Trump said the tax deduction on car payments would “revolutionize” the car industry and “stimulate massive domestic auto production.” The former president added that the policy would “make car ownership dramatically more affordable for millions and millions of working American families.” Trump has also vowed to end the electric vehicle mandate issued by the Biden-Harris administration.  Harris, on the other hand, has attempted to convince Michigan voters that she is the unity candidate, leaning on former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney who recently moderated a town hall in Michigan with the vice president. Harris has attempted to paint Trump as extreme and a “fascist,” telling Michiganders at the town hall, “Listen to the report that — what his former chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a general, said about him: that he is ‘fascist to the core.’”  Michigan Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer, who won re-election in 2022, was on Harris’ running mate shortlist before Harris decided to pick Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz. Similar to Harris’ decision to pass over Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro, her move to go with Walz over Whitmer could have implications in the vital swing state. What Early Voting Shows Mail-in and early voting are expected to play a big part in the election in Michigan as the state has already reported near-record-breaking early votes. Throughout the state, more than 1 million absentee ballots were cast as of October 22. That represents 16% of Michigan’s active voters. More than 2.2 million Michigan voters requested or received absentee ballots for the 2024 election, which is just shy of the total number of absentee ballot requests in 2020.  Michigan’s voter rolls list 8.4 million registered voters, but that’s nearly 500,000 more people than the total number of voting-age residents in the state. The inflated voter rolls in Michigan, a vital battleground state in the 2024 election, are one of the largest imbalances in the country, Bridge Michigan reported. When Can We Expect A Result? Michigan Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson said earlier this month that results in Michigan might not be known until around 24 hours after polls close.  “We do have more options to process ballots sooner than Election Day, which is where we were restricted in 2020, so I’m optimistic we could see results even sooner,” Benson said. “But I would estimate end of the day on Wednesday as the best guess on how we’ll perform.” What Counties To Watch The three counties in Michigan to watch on Election Day are Wayne County, Oakland County, and Kent County. Wayne is the most populous county in the state and usually the Democrats’ biggest stronghold. If Vice President Harris has a good night in Michigan, it will be evident by how big her margin is in Wayne County.  Kent County, a strongly Christian area of the state, is the biggest bellwether county in the state. It went for Biden by 6 points in 2020 after Trump won the county by 3 points over Clinton in 2016.  Oakland County, just north of Wayne County, has become more blue over the past decade but still holds a heavy concentration of Republican voters. President Joe Biden won the county by 14 points in 2020, which far outpaced Hillary Clinton’s 8-point margin in the county in 2016. While Trump doesn’t necessarily have to win Oakland County to win Michigan, the Republican nominee does need to see numbers closer to 2016.  Along with Michigan’s three key counties, the state also has a key demographic of voters who have become increasingly frustrated with the Democratic Party: Muslims. Michigan’s large Muslim population, centered in the cities of Dearborn and Hamtramck, has historically voted for Democrats, but with the ongoing war between Israel and terrorist groups Hamas and Hezbollah, many Muslim leaders have come out against the Biden-Harris administration’s policies. Harris has tried to court Muslim voters in Michigan, meeting with Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud over the summer, but Harris’ efforts have seemingly failed as many Muslims say that they will not vote this year in the presidential election, The Washington Post reported. The mayor of Hamtramck, Amer Ghalib, along with multiple Muslim leaders in Michigan have even endorsed Trump. Around 250,000 Muslims live in Michigan, according to 2020 national census data. Biden took Michigan in 2020 by just over 154,000 votes. Voting Issues From 2020 To Now Wayne County’s ballot counting was a major focus during and after the 2020 election. Two Republican members of the Wayne County Board of Canvassers initially blocked the certification of the county’s election result, citing discrepancies in the poll books. After outrage from Democratic leaders in Wayne County, the two Republican Board of Canvassers members reversed their votes, approving the county’s results.  Conservatives also criticized Wayne County election officials after thousands of absentee ballots were counted late into the night, most of which went for Biden, pushing him past Trump in Michigan.  The Republican National Committee sued Michigan Democratic Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson over the inflated voter rolls earlier this year, along with filing lawsuits over other election-related issues in the state, but Benson’s office dismissed the concerns, arguing the lawsuits “lay the groundwork to overturn the results of the election if they don’t like them.” Other Races To Watch Michigan’s Senate race between Rogers and Slotkin, along with multiple tight House races in the Great Lakes State, could help determine control of Congress. Slotkin, a Democratic congresswoman, is leading Rogers in the Senate racy by 3 points in the polling average, according to RealClearPolitics. Republicans haven’t held a Senate seat in Michigan since 2000.  For the U.S. House races in Michigan, two seats currently held by Democrats and one seat held by a Republican are considered “toss-ups,” according to Decision Desk HQ. Republicans are looking to pick up seats in the 7th District — which is Slotkin’s current seat — and the 8th District, which is currently held by Democrat Dan Kildee who is retiring. Democrats, meanwhile, are hoping to snag the seat from Republican John James in the 10th District. 

More Americans now believe that former President Donald Trump was merely “exercising his right to contest the [2020] election” than they did a few years ago, while fewer believe he “went so far that he threatened American democracy,” according to a newly-released survey. More Americans still believe the latter over the former, but the gap between the two beliefs has closed in recent years, according to the latest New York Times/Siena National poll on the question. This same poll has asked registered voters the question since at least July 2022, and since then, voters have shifted toward the belief that Trump had every right to contest the election and away from the belief that he threatened democracy. When the question was asked in early July 2022, 39% of respondents said they thought Trump was exercising his right, while 55% said he threatened democracy. This was more than a year after the events of January 6, 2021, when Trump supporters entered the U.S. Capitol in an attempt to stop then-Vice President Mike Pence from certifying the 2020 election results as questions about the validity of the ballots remained. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ Now, however, the number of people who believe Trump was just exercising his rights has risen to 46%, while the number who believe he threatened democracy has dropped to 49%. The number of people who said they were unsure or refused to answer has also dropped nearly in half, from 7% in July 2022 to just 4% now. The latest poll with the question was conducted just after news broke that former Republican Congresswoman Liz Cheney had communicated with an anti-Trump January 6 hearing witness. Cheney, then representing Wyoming, communicated with the “star witness” of the hearing behind the witness’ attorney’s back, The Daily Wire reported. The initial communication was facilitated by then-Trump strategic communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin, but Cheney later communicated directly with the witness, Cassidy Hutchison. “Cheney interacted with the witness, former Trump White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson, through ex-Trump strategic communications director Alyssa Farah Griffin — and later directly — in an effort to compel further testimony …” the New York Post reported. “Though she worked behind the scenes to obtain Hutchinson’s juiciest allegations in 2022, some of which were later found to be false, Cheney never mentioned the backchannel talks with Hutchinson or Griffin in her book ‘Oath and Honor’ about the riot,” the Post added. The conversations between Hutchinson and Griffin began two months before the hearing began. Hutchinson’s communications with Cheney started three days before the hearing.

Former California Republican Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger took shots at former President Donald Trump on Wednesday while endorsing Vice President Kamala Harris for the presidency. The Hollywood celebrity made the endorsement in a statement on social media where he claimed that “people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor.” He said that while he hates politics, especially in the current political environment, he felt obligated to speak out before the election. “Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results,” he said. “Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime.” Schwarzenegger made no mention of the numerous times over a period of decades that Democrats have denied the results of elections.

MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ NOW STREAMING ON DAILYWIRE+ He made no mention of President Joe Biden saying this week that 74 million Americans who voted for Trump were “garbage.” 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 “This week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz,” he said. He lamented the growing national debt and the crisis at the southern border, two issues that have both been dramatically worsened under the Biden-Harris administration. Schwarzenegger claimed that the only thing Trump accomplished was getting a tax cut passed and that it was only for “his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else.” Nearly 65% of Americans got a tax cut under Trump, according to The New York Times. He claimed that electing Trump would lead to “four more years of bulls*** with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful.” “We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that,” he added. “He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger.” He did not make any argument for why voters should support Harris other than saying Trump, in his mind, was worse.

When this poor cat got lost in her new home, her owners came up with the perfect way to help her find them: a game of Marco Polo! In a hilarious clip on social media, the pet parents were in the middle of measuring one of their rooms when they heard their kitty, Pooka, meowing piteously. It turns out that the animal had gotten disoriented while exploring the house, and she was upset because she couldn’t locate Mom and Dad! Thankfully, though, her humans knew just what to do. To help the cat find her way back to them, the animal’s owners began to play Marco Polo with her. Every time Pooka meowed, her parents responded loud enough for her to hear them from across the house. They called out a variety of different phrases, including the classic “Marco.” @twoblackcatsprod She wanders off by herself then cries because she’s alone lol #catsoftiktok #bottlebaby ♬ original sound – Two Black Cats It worked like a charm! In no time, the black cat wandered back into the room where her parents were waiting. Then, she walked right over to Mom for some comforting scratches! “POV you moved from an apartment to a house and your cat keeps getting lost,” wrote the woman in her social media post. In her caption, she added, “She wanders off by herself then cries because she’s alone lol.” Over 14 million people have watched these pet parents play Marco Polo with their lost cat. Commenters thought that the video was too funny! “Definitely not made for the streets,” joked one user. Another added, “The audacity of going for a wander and then being like, ‘I can’t believe you left me?! How dare you!'” A month later, this cat was still playing Marco Polo. In a later update, Pooka’s mom shared that her kitty still hadn’t quite gotten the lay of the land as far as the new house went. She posted another hilarious clip of her cat meowing from the other room, forcing the woman to employ the Marco Polo method once again. @twoblackcatsprod Replying to @Who’sYourCaddy You’re in luck! A month later and Pooka is still high maintenance… who woulda thunk? (Answer: everyone who’s ever met her) ♬ original sound – Two Black Cats “A month later and Pooka is still high maintenance…” the cat owner wrote in her caption. “Who woulda thunk? (Answer: everyone who’s ever met her.)” We hope this adorable black kitty gets used to her new home soon! You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
