A former “Bachelorette” contestant who appeared on the reality show nine years ago just admitted that his recent foray into being transgender was nothing but a publicity stunt to prove how gullible leftists can be on the topic. Josh Seiter, 37, announced that he identified as transgender in May. The reality star went on the BlazeTV podcast “Prime Time with Alex Stein” on Tuesday to say he spent the last five months keeping up the ruse to “expose how gullible and delusional the left is.” “I think a lot of trans women are turned on at the thought of themselves being women. Guess what? It doesn’t magically make them women,” Seiter told Stein during the interview.  “We live in a free country, you can do whatever you want. But don’t make your fetish my truth. I don’t have to accept it,” he continued, per the New York Post. The former “Bachelorette” contestant said he experienced “intolerance, bigotry, and gatekeeping” from leftist activists and community members after making his announcement.  Seiter began his interview with Stein wearing a full face of makeup and a scarf featuring the colors of the transgender flag before having a podcast staffer come and remove the cosmetics. That’s when the reality star revealed it had been a hoax all along. “I faked being a faker. I pretended to be a pretender,” Seiter said. “We are all the same, we are all men putting on makeup and dresses and claiming we are women, and I hope that this could help some people understand that just because you put on dresses and makeup as a man doesn’t magically make you a woman,” he added. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 Seiter told The Daily Mail ahead of his big reveal that the whole thing had been a social experiment. “I’ve been running it for four months to see how far people will take postmodern gender ideology and woke culture,” Seiter told the outlet.  “The medical guidelines and scientific literature make it clear that trans individuals don’t have to have gender dysphoria, don’t have to transition, don’t have to take hormones, get surgery, or alter their appearance in any way to be trans,” he continued. “All trans women are biological males who identify as women. All trans men are biological women who identify as men,” Seiter said. “But the medical guidelines and science use verbal legerdemain and semantical nonsense to create a nebulous set of rules that are so contradictory and so amorphous that they are utterly meaningless and fail to even define who is trans and who isn’t.” He went on, “The fact that millions of people are debating if I am a woman after living for 37 years as the man I am anatomically says all that needs to be said about how shallow the intellectual waters are that we are wading in with the trans movement and gender ideology.”

While serving as our nation’s first vice president under George Washington, John Adams complained, “But my Country has in its Wisdom contrived for me, the most insignificant Office that ever the Invention of Man contrived or his Imagination conceived.” Although it would be difficult not to be eclipsed by the Father of Our Country, he was hardly the only VP to lament his apparent lack of consequence. However, of the 49 people who have held Mr. Adams’ position, 15 have gone on to become President of the United States — as did Adams himself — including eight who ascended to the office due to the deaths of sitting Presidents. Which means that our new VP come January theoretically has a one-in-three chance of ending up in the White House. As such, what is often painted as a merely ceremonial position can be very significant indeed. Several past vice presidents who unexpectedly moved into the Oval Office have had serious impacts on the direction of the nation. Tennessean Andrew Johnson effectively rolled back parts of Lincoln’s post-Civil War reconstruction agenda when it came to restrictions on blacks and was even impeached for a separate issue. (He was acquitted by one vote). Harry Truman took over the reins of U.S. power from the deceased FDR and made the decision to incinerate Hiroshima and Nagasaki, thereby ending the Second World War while ushering in the nuclear age. Five years later, he committed troops to save South Korea — a fortunate decision, the result of which is affirmed by the prosperous and free ally below the DMZ to this day. And, of course, upon assuming office after Kennedy’s assassination, Lyndon Johnson initiated the social and fiscal disaster that was his Great Society welfare state, and then sent us headlong into the bloody quagmire of Vietnam, signing the death warrants of over 57,000 American youths in the process. Today, we are faced with one of the starkest choices in our history as to who will head the executive branch. And, despite the admonitions of Mr. Adams, rarely have we seen each presidential candidate’s selection for V.P. as so emblematic of both how they would truly govern, as well as his/her ability to make sound decisions. The woke, liberal, progressive Kamala Harris of deep blue California chose Tim Walz — an even more woke, more liberal, more progressive governor from cobalt-blue Minnesota. Unfortunately for Harris, Walz is proving to be as helpful to her bid for the White House as an anvil on the Titanic. Firstly, Walz has shown himself to be a Pop Warner League politician suddenly thrust into the political NFL. As he fumbles with guns and stumbles in interviews and tries to get his lies straight, his handlers attempt to play down his uber-woke governorship. Secondly, the Minnesota governor delivers nothing in a razor-thin election wherein a handful of votes in one key swing state may deliver the Electoral College, and thus the Presidency. As it is turning out, her decision has been, shall we say, wanting? Without getting into the already well-documented and detailed weeds of Walz’s far-Left beliefs and borderline lunatic edicts, suffice it to say that if played on a split-screen it would be difficult to discern between the self-described “knucklehead” Tim Walz and comedian Jim Gaffigan’s SNL incarnation. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 Now compare the above dumpster fire to Donald Trump’s choice for our VP. I will freely confess I initially saw in JD Vance a poor decision and, at this point, I honestly can’t even remember why. Perhaps I fell for the “cat lady” shiny object the media dangled before the public, scouring the record for anything damaging he may have said in the past decade. I don’t know. But now it is clear to me that in picking JD Vance, Trump has shown much better judgment in making the most important decision for each campaign. JD Vance is, in fact, everything Tim Walz is not. His is a genuine biography with no contradictions when it comes to where he was during important events or his service in the Marines. His life story is, quite literally, an open book titled “Hillbilly Elegy.” Vance is a bona fide rags-to-riches US success story who is clearly bright, refreshingly articulate, and unafraid to answer tough questions while turning the tables on a media doing everything in its power to drag Harris over the finish line. The man is even married to a woman of color. I think of LBJ on Air Force One on November 22, 1963, and ask myself if such a tragedy occurred a year from now, who would I want to see sworn in as President of the United States, Commander-in-Chief of our armed forces, keeper of the nuclear codes, and steward of one-fourth of the global economy? I know who it would not be. It would not be a man whose wife bragged about relishing the torching of US cities, who enables and celebrates mass illegal immigration, has little interest in prosecuting crime, puts tampons in the boys’ bathrooms, believes in abortion all the way to and even beyond birth, has, like his prospective boss, never been in the private sector, and is, in his very own words, again, a “knucklehead”? Or do I want to see the articulate and grounded Ohio Senator who clearly has the interests of the American people at heart? Who believes in the US Constitution and the rule of law? Who insists on securing our intentionally porous border? Who understands business and economics, who recognizes the struggles of a middle class forgotten by the donor elites? Who is the most articulate and clear-speaking candidate in my lifetime? And would also be respected by our military rank and file over which he would take command? For anyone not in the throes of stage 4 Trump Derangement Syndrome the choice is obvious. It’s often said that the vice presidential nominee doesn’t sway elections and in ordinary circumstances that may be so. But my hunch is Americans understand two things about this cycle. First, macabre as it may be, after two attempts on Donald Trump’s life, possibly three, voters have come to see that a candidate’s choice for running mate is a deadly serious matter. Thus, Vance presents to the American people something Walz does not: someone qualified to step into the Oval Office post haste if needed. Let’s be honest, it is difficult to imagine a President Walz. That the polls began to move in Trump’s direction shortly after the vice presidential debate could be an indication of this understanding among voters. Even if, perhaps, they do not study up on the history of the office, voters intuitively understand that this time the choices Trump and Harris made as their prospective successors could have a very real and lasting impact on their lives. There’s a reason why over 43 million viewers watched the vice presidential debate. This is the first election I can recall in which the choice of running mate was not only indicative of a candidate’s true political and social outlook, but also who was conspicuously not picked. Harris could have chosen in Walz’s stead the solid Josh Shapiro. Shapiro is the very popular governor of Pennsylvania, arguably the most vital swing state. He is bright, articulate, is viewed by his constituents as a centrist (he probably even knows which bathrooms need tampon dispensers) and could have shored up a very weak Presidential candidate in need of flying buttresses. It is, in fact, difficult to see a path to 270 electors for Harris without landing the Keystone State. A state that voted 56.5% for Shapiro in 2022. But she did not pick the Pennsylvania governor. Why not? Only the Dems know for sure, but given the anti-Semitism now slithering its way through the most progressive halls of the Democratic Party — the party of Omar, Tlaib, Sharpton, and pro-Hamas activists — it is not difficult to speculate why the Jewish Shapiro was passed over. In the eleventh hour of the campaign, the Democrats are desperately trying to dress Kamala’s hyper-progressive, ultra-Leftist, mendacious, incompetent, soy-boy running mate — the gun-toting, wolf in the sheep’s clothing, camo-wearing, beer-swilling Joe Six-Pack — because, this is the revealing caricature of who they think the American people are. But, as with Walz’s fumbled viral attempts to load his shotgun — and not in the way the DNC would like — it appears contrived and packaged, not genuine. It is safe to say that just as Vance, due to his command of the issues, intellect and authenticity, has provided a boost to Trump, so too will Walz become ever more a liability to the Harris campaign. In 1992, the successful Bill Clinton campaign famously adopted the mantra “It’s The Economy, Stupid!” Well, clearly the Harris team cannot run on that. But when it comes to picking someone to fill what is actually an extremely important office, (Veep’s madcap Selina Meyer aside) they might have at least tacked up on the wall at Team Harris HQ “Make Stupid Decisions, Win Stupid Prizes!” In this sense, Tim Walz, by potentially hindering the DC Machine puppet Harris’ quest for the Oval Office, may have inadvertently done the nation the greatest service of his spotty political career. Given the vision our first vice president had for the nation he helped found, one must think that, were he alive today, Mr. Adams would be relieved. * * * Brad Schaeffer is a commodities trader, author, and columnist whose writings have appeared in the Wall Street Journal, Daily Wire, New York Post, New York Daily News, National Review, The Hill, The Federalist, Zerohedge, and other publications.

Voters in Georgia shattered a voting record on Tuesday when early voting began, despite claims from Democrats that the state’s election integrity law would suppress voting. Since 2021, Democrats and their media counterparts compared Georgia’s voting law to Jim Crow – laws that ensured most black people would not be able to vote. CNN perpetrated many of the news articles against the Georgia law, but on Tuesday reported that 328,000 ballots were cast in Georgia on the first day of early voting – a massive increase from the 2020 record of 136,000. Gabe Sterling, from Georgia’s secretary of state’s office, announced the numbers on X, saying, “So with the record breaking 1st day of early voting and accepted absentees we have had over 328,000 total votes cast so far.” So with the record breaking 1st day of early voting and accepted absentees we have had over 328,000 total votes cast so far.

Brian Kemp called out the media’s past claims while touting the numbers on X. “For years, Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams, Joe Biden, and their allies in the media lied about Georgia election laws to raise campaign cash and scare people,” Kemp wrote. “It was wrong then, and it’s wrong now. Here’s the truth: in Georgia, it’s easy to vote and hard to cheat.” For years, Kamala Harris, Stacey Abrams, Joe Biden, and their allies in the media lied about Georgia election laws to raise campaign cash and scare people. It was wrong then, and it’s wrong now. Here’s the truth: in Georgia, it’s easy to vote and hard to cheat. https://t.co/lfdlEFuma7 — Brian Kemp (@BrianKempGA) October 15, 2024 In 2021, Georgia passed a law designed to improve election integrity, in part by requiring an ID for absentee voting. It also reduced early voting and updated voter processes and disparities caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. Drop boxes were also moved to election offices and early voting locations and are only available during business hours. Counties in the state will also have to certify the results within six days instead of 10 and must complete counting ballots once counting has started. These changes predictably prompted Democrats and the media to claim the law would lead to voter suppression. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA) compared the law to the Jim Crow era while at the same time saying Democrat candidate Stacey Abrams actually won the governor’s office in 2018. “The Republican who is sitting in Stacey Abrams’ chair just signed a despicable voter suppression bill into law to take Georgia back to Jim Crow. The Senate must pass the #ForThePeople Act and John Lewis Voting Rights Act immediately — our democracy is at stake tonight,” Warren wrote on X in 2021. Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) also claimed the law would “make it harder for Georgians to vote.” “Tonight Georgia’s legislature passed a bill brazenly intended to make it harder for Georgians to vote,” Ossoff posted to X in 2021. “Among its outrageous provisions: it criminalizes *giving water to voters who are waiting in line.* It’s no wonder Gov. Kemp hid behind closed doors while he signed it.” President Joe Biden made the same claim. “It’s an atrocity. The idea, you want any indication, it has nothing to do with fairness, nothing to do with decency. They pass a law saying you can’t provide water for people standing in line, while they’re waiting to vote.  You don’t need anything else to know that this is nothing but punitive, designed to keep people from voting. You can’t provide water for people about to vote? Give me a break,” Biden said in 2021. The law makes it illegal to give money or gifts to voters – including food and drink – but doesn’t make it illegal for poll workers to make self-service water available to those waiting in line to vote. The law is meant to keep people from soliciting votes by giving gifts, not harm people waiting to vote. Vice President Kamala Harris also called the law voter suppression, telling the Atlanta Journal-Constitution that the law is a “renewed attempt to suppress the ability of people to vote.” Major League Baseball moved its annual All-Star game from Atlanta because of the law. The game was moved to Denver, which also required ID to vote and was a far less diverse city than Atlanta, The Daily Wire reported at the time. In 2023, the All-Star game returned to Atlanta. Leftist media outlets also made wild claims about the Georgia law, leading to widespread voter suppression. CNN was one of the worst offenders, with headlines such as “Putting ‘cologne on Jim Crow’: Georgia GOP lawmakers drive toward new voting restrictions,” “Georgia’s new law suppressing the vote is a victory for Trump,” and “‘Dripping in the blood of Jim Crow’: Voting rights groups say GOP-backed bills in Georgia target Black voters.” Now, CNN has admitted that it is easier to vote in Democrat strongholds like Atlanta. One Atlanta-area voter told the outlet that the last time she voted, “the lines were out the door.” “They only had like, maybe like three people working,” the voter said. “So, people honestly just started leaving because it was like that. Yeah, like, ‘This is too long. I can’t sit here (and) wait, I have to go back to work.’ But here, no, it was easy.”

Vice President Kamala Harris threatened to prosecute fossil fuel executives during her failed 2020 presidential campaign, according to newly surfaced remarks. CNN reported that Harris told voters at a November 2019 town hall in South Carolina that oil companies and fossil fuel companies “should be really prepared to look at a serious fine or be charged with a crime” for their role in what leftists claim is a “climate crisis.” “And, not unlike the tobacco companies, after years — ’cause they’d done the research — they knew the harm that their product was causing,” Harris continued. “They were making so much money that they kept that secret — same thing with these big oil companies. And they need to pay the price.” NEW: Our report last night on OutFrontCNN – As a candidate in 2019, Kamala Harris said she could criminally prosecute oil companies for climate change. Fast forward to 2024, she and Walz are now touting those same companies record oil production under the Biden-Harris admin. pic.twitter.com/mygxdQNDXI — Andy Kaczynski (@KFILE) October 16, 2024 CNN added that Harris made similar remarks at the time in an interview with leftist magazine Mother Jones. “Let’s get them not only in the pocketbook, but let’s make sure there are severe and serious penalties for their behaviors,” she said. Harris — now the Democrat Party’s presidential nominee, despite never earning a single vote from primary voters — is now trying to take credit for the U.S.’s oil and gas production. MATT WALSH’S ‘AM I RACIST?’ COMING TO DAILYWIRE+ OCT. 28 The Biden-Harris administration’s policies have caused the U.S. to fall well behind oil and gas production projections. In 2019, Harris led the charge with Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) in trying to ram the Green New Deal through Congress, an extreme far-Left climate initiative that would cost tens of trillions of dollars. Harris also said at the time she would ban fracking, a claim that she has now walked back and continued to lie about when it comes to her past comments. “There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking,” she told an audience member during a CNN town hall event in 2019. “And starting with what we can do on day one around public lands, and there has to be legislation. That’s something I’ve taken on in California. I have a history of working on this issue, and to your point, we have to just acknowledge that the residual impact of fracking is enormous in terms of the health and safety of communities.” During an appearance on Jimmy Fallon in 2019, she called climate change the “single greatest threat” facing the world and said she was committed to passing the extreme Green New Deal and “finally putting an end to fracking once and for all.” Harris was asked whether she still supported banning fracking during a softball CNN interview with Dana Bash several weeks ago. “No, and I made that clear on the debate stage in 2020, that I would not ban fracking,” she claimed. “As vice president, I did not ban fracking. As president, I will not ban fracking.” A review of Harris’ claims about what she said on the debate stage shows that she was lying. After then-presidential nominee Joe Biden picked her as his running mate, she appeared in one vice presidential debate against Mike Pence in October 2020. During that debate, Harris never stated that she would not ban fracking; she said that Biden would not ban fracking. “Joe Biden will not end fracking,” Harris said. “He has been very clear about that.” Several minutes later, Harris said: “Alright, so first of all, I will repeat, and the American people know, that Joe Biden will not ban fracking. That is a fact.”

All animals deserve love, but it is pretty clear that we humans have our favorites. Cute creatures tend to stand out to us the most. But what about those that are a little more on the bizarre side? There are plenty of animals that fit that description, but it’s possible that you have never seen one quite like the little guy in the video below. When you think of a pigeon, the word “bizarre” probably doesn’t cross your mind. They are fairly average birds, after all. But this particular type of pigeon, the Jacobin pigeon, is anything but ordinary. With so many feathers around their head, there are angles where their face is entirely covered.
