The group chats must have been ablaze over the weekend as, on the Monday network morning shows, ABC, CBS, and NBC aired similar 2024 campaign segments stirring the pot of hate toward former President Trump, arguing he’s filled with “dangerous,” “dark,” and “increasingly inflammatory rhetoric” about “political opponents” and “vilifying immigrants.” In contrast, they all celebrated Vice President Kamala Harris “upping the pressure on Donald Trump” and calling into question “Trump’s fitness for office” by saying he’s “not being transparent” about his well-being. Of course, nothing was said by these tools about Harris’s role (as well as their own) in hiding President Biden’s cognitive impairment for years. ABC’s Good Morning America was, of course, the worst. Co-host Robin Roberts hit the latter theme in her opening tease, gushing over “Harris releasing her medical records and challenging the former President to do the same, while questioning his fitness for office.” Disney’s in-house North Korean news lady for the Biden-Harris regime — aka Mary Bruce — sounded like it were a thread on X for @KamalaHQ. This segment from ABC's 'Good Morning America' is just absurd. Disney's North Korean news lady for the Biden-Harris regime Mary Bruce hit all the right notes as though she worked for KamalaHQ.

Earth to Mary: You going to mention Ole Joe and the years of questions about his fitness? Of course not. Bruce flipped the script for Trump, blasting him for “vilifying immigrants” and “using dark rhetoric to describe his political opponent, saying he might use the military against them.” “Now, the Harris campaign called those comments dangerous, saying they should alarm every American,” Bruce huffed before closing with some press-release-y words about Harris’s “new economic proposals” for black men. Trump-hating correspondent Rachel Scott broke down ABC’s latest polling, whining that voters still trust Trump more on the economy “despite the Biden administration touting economic wins, despite Vice President Kamala Harris really pitching voters on the economy.” Weekend co-host Whit Johnson reiterated the health narrative in a second half-hour news brief and Bruce returned in the second hour to rehash the talking points her friends from the Harris team must have doled out. CBS Mornings was brazen enough about their partisanship about painting a picture of Trump as a threat to America they put it in a chyron: “America Decides; Dangerous Campaign Rhetoric; Trump Threatens Use of Military on ‘Enemy From Within.’” Wrongly embattled co-host Tony Dokoupil had the set-up, focusing on Trump “drawing attention, renewed attention, you might say, for more rhetoric, new rhetoric...going after his enemies.” Correspondent Caitlin Huey-Burns took time from her usual cri de coeur of abortion to knock Trump for “the increased” and “ramp[ed] up..rhetoric” on immigration. A week after they came out as openly anti-Israel and arguably anti-Jew, ‘CBS Mornings’ declared in a chyron that Trump is spreading “Dangerous Campaign Rhetoric.” Meanwhile, the abortion-obsessed Caitlin Huey-Burns cheered Kamala for “Harris slamm[ing] Trump for turning down… pic.twitter.com/qFv2lEfyi9 — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) October 14, 2024   She went soft on Harris (click “expand”): HUEY-BURNS: At a rally in North Carolina, Vice President Kamala Harris slammed Trump for turning down another debate and mainstream interviews. HARRIS: Why does his staff want him to hide away? One must question, are they afraid that people will see that he is too weak and unstable to lead America? HUEY-BURNS: Earlier in the day, Harris attended Sunday service in the state as her campaign makes a more aggressive push to win over Black men, a critical voting bloc for which Trump is also competing. CBS News polling shows Harris has as much support from Black voters as President Biden did in 2020, but her campaign has concerns about turnout. And this morning, the Harris campaign is releasing a series of economic proposals specifically for Black men. Harris will be campaigning at a rally in Erie, Pennsylvania today[.] NBC’s Today kept more of the focus on their huge poll showing a tied race in the popular vote and Biden’s record being a drag on Harris and a deep dive from Steve Kornacki. They still made time to launder the Harris team’s talking points.  Co-host Savannah Guthrie made sure to emphasize Harris “released her medical records over the weekend showing that she is in, ‘excellent health’” as a way of “saying Donald Trump is not being transparent with his own medical records.” Senior Washington correspondent Hallie Jackson made the first part of her report about the polling, but pivoted to the doomsday talk: “[T]he former president is deploying increasingly inflammatory rhetoric against his rival...and suggesting using the military against what he describes as domestic enemies.” NBC’s ‘Today,’ after sharing the findings of its new poll filled with flashing red lights for Kamala: “ It all comes as, on the campaign trail, the former president is deploying increasingly inflammatory rhetoric against his rival — [soundbite] — and suggesting using the military… pic.twitter.com/qq6TEgxGqA — Curtis Houck (@CurtisHouck) October 14, 2024 Notice how she was far more gentle about Harris’s preferred narrative (click “expand”): JACKSON: Vice President Harris in North Carolina trying to put the spotlight on Mr. Trump’s health — HARRIS: He’s not being transparent with the voters.

Former President Donald Trump stated on Sunday that, should he win the presidential election, he plans to tap Elon Musk for a new potential role to significantly reduce government waste.During an interview on Fox News' "Sunday Morning Futures," the Republican presidential nominee said he hopes to appoint Musk as his "Secretary of Cost-Cutting."'We will rip the waste out of our $6.5 Trillion budget. Our goal: Balance the Budget of the USA.'Trump told the news outlet, "He's a great business guy, and he's a great cost-cutter."According to Trump, Musk told him he could slash government costs "without affecting anybody."He noted that Musk does not want to be a part of the Cabinet but does want to help eliminate government waste."He is dying to do this," Trump said of Musk. "We'll have a new position: Secretary of Cost-Cutting. Elon wants to do that, and we have incredible people. He's running a big business. He can't just say, 'I think I'll go into the Cabinet.' Other people can. He can't, but Elon's a little bit different in that sense."Trump also told Fox News that Musk promised him he would get a rocket to Mars by the end of Trump's potential second term, stating he hopes Musk pulls it off "long before" China or Russia. During an August X Spaces discussion, the former president complimented Musk for being "the greatest cutter." Musk previously stated that he had slashed the staff at Twitter by approximately 80%."I look at what you do. You walk in and you just say, 'You want to quit?' They go on strike — I won't mention the name of the company — but they go on strike, and you say, 'That's OK, you're all gone. You're all gone. Every one of you is gone,'" Trump told Musk.Musk explained during the Spaces conversation that government overspending causes inflation. "Would you agree that we need to take a look at government spending and have, perhaps, a government efficiency commission that just ... tries to make the spending sensible and so that the country lives within its means?" he asked Trump.Musk advocated for a government efficiency commission "that takes a look at these things and just ensures that the taxpayer money — that taxpayers' hard-earned money — is spent in a good way. And I'd be happy to help out on such a commission."On Monday, Trump-Vance transition team co-chair Howard Lutnick posted a photograph on social media of himself and Musk. "Welcome to DOGE," Lutnick wrote, an acronym referring to Musk's proposed "Department of Government Efficiency." "Doge" is also a cryptocurrency."We will rip the waste out of our $6.5 Trillion budget. Our goal: Balance the Budget of the USA. We must elect Donald Trump President," Lutnick stated.Musk shared Lutnick's post, adding, "We gotta win, but, once we do, we can cut the millions of strings that, like Gulliver, hold back the giant that is America!"Like Blaze News?

Archaeologists have uncovered the remains of one of the world's oldest Christian churches in an ancient city located in Armenia. On Oct. 11, the University of Münster announced the discovery of a previously unknown church in a press release. Archaeologists also found some fragments of marble imported from the Mediterranean, from which experts determined the church was 'lavishly decorated.' Archaeologists from the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia and the University of Münster in Germany have discovered the remains of one of the oldest Christian churches in the ancient Armenian city of Artaxata, the capital of the kingdom of Armenia for almost six centuries. Researchers believe the church dates back to the fourth century. "Typologically, the find corresponds to early Christian memorial buildings," the press release stated. "In the cross-shaped extensions, the researchers discovered the remains of wooden platforms, which were radiocarbon dated to the mid-fourth century A.D." Dr. Mkrtich H. Zardaryan of the National Academy of Sciences of Armenia explained, “Octagonal churches were unknown here until now, but we are very familiar with them from the Eastern Mediterranean region, where they first appeared in the fourth century A.D.” Professor Achim Lichtenberger of the University of Münster added, “The fourth-century building is the oldest archaeologically documented church in the country — sensational evidence for early Christianity in Armenia.” The octagonal building is approximately 100 feet in diameter. The church features a mortar floor and terra-cotta tiles. Archaeologists also found some fragments of marble imported from the Mediterranean, from which experts determined the church was "lavishly decorated." The archaeologists excavated parts of the ancient ruins and studied them by using geophysical methods. The German-Armenian team has been in Armenia since September and will continue excavations in hopes of making new archaeological discoveries. The kingdom of Armenia was the first Christian country in the world. St. Gregory the Illuminator was a fourth-century apostle of Christianity and a prince in Parthia, a historical region located in northeastern Greater Iran. Gregory's father, Anak, allegedly attempted to assassinate the Armenian king and was executed. The Armenian king ordered all of Anak's family to be executed as well. Gregory's caretakers smuggled him out of Armenia and transported him to Cappadocia, in modern Turkey. Gregory was raised by a Christian priest. Gregory became a monk and later returned to Armenia to promote his faith and convert people to Christianity. At the time, the Armenian king Tiridates III was informed that Gregory's father was the man who attempted to assassinate his father. Tiridates III — also known as Tiridates the Great — had Gregory detained, thrown into a pit, and tortured. Legend has it that Tiridates III descended into madness and had a dream that Gregory could heal him. Gregory healed the mad king around 300 A.D. Following the miracle, Tiridates III declared that Armenia would be a Christian nation — the first Christian state in history. Like Blaze News?

CNN polling analyst Harry Enten said he was stunned to see the continuing collapse of support for Democrats from black voters in recent polling. "Sometimes there's a trend line I never noticed before, and it makes me go, 'Whoa!'" said Enten. 'This is part of a long-standing trend of young black men moving away from the Democratic Party. Kamala Harris is just the latest to face that magnitude of younger black men going toward Republicans.' "This is one of them. This is the Democratic margin among black men under the age of 45 in presidential elections. You go back to November of 2012, what do you see? You see Obama by 81. Clinton only won them by 63," he explained. "Then we're all the way down to Biden last time around, by 53, a tremendous drop-off already," Enten continued. "And then you take a look at the average of the most recent polls. Kamala Harris is up by only 41 points! That is about half the margin that Obama won them by back in November of 2012."He went on to show that the pattern of decreasing support in the black community for Democrats extended into polling of black males overall, even though Democrats still have far more support from black voters than Republicans do. Even among black women, Harris has historically low support compared to previous Democratic candidates. "This is part of a long-standing trend of young black men moving away from the Democratic Party," Enten concluded. "Kamala Harris is just the latest to face that magnitude of younger black men going toward Republicans."Enten posted video of his comments at CNN to his X account.Like Blaze News?

Former President Bill Clinton tried to blame Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump for the brutal murder of a Georgia nurse allegedly by an illegal alien while Clinton was campaigning for the Harris-Walz ticket. 'Yeah well, if they’d all been properly vetted, that probably wouldn’t have happened.' Clinton criticized lax immigration policies that allegedly led to the death of Laken Riley, but he tried to blame Trump for torpedoing a compromise bill on immigration in February. “[Harris is] the only candidate who has actually endorsed a bill that would hold down immigration in any given year to any certain point and then give people a decent place to live, make sure we didn’t divide people from their children. And we did total vetting before people came in,” Clinton claimed at a fish fry in Georgia. “Now, Trump killed the bill. The bill was written — being written by senior Republicans in the Senate. And he killed the bill. Why? You got a case in Georgia not very long ago," he continued. "They made an ad about it, about a young woman who’d been killed by an immigrant. Yeah well, if they’d all been properly vetted, that probably wouldn’t have happened.”However, the immigration bill failed at the beginning of February while Riley was murdered a few weeks later. If Congress had passed the bill, it almost certainly would have had no effect on Jose Ibarra, the accused illegal immigrant who had entered the country years before the murder. The Trump campaign pounced on Clinton's comments to make it appear as if Clinton were undermining the Harris campaign. "Kamala Harris and extreme House Democrats' embrace of far-left open-border policies even has Bill Clinton saying they went too far," read a statement from Will Reinert, the national press secretary for the National Republican Congressional Committee. "Unfortunately, swing-district House Democrats voted against every reasonable border security bill this Congress that could have saved Laken Riley's life."Ibarra is a Venezuelan national and is scheduled to face trial for the murder charge in November. Republicans were divided on the immigration compromise bill, as some excoriated it as conceding far too much to Democrats while other Republicans said it was being misrepresented. Like Blaze News?

Don’t get me wrong, there are hundreds more sophisticated and impactful videogames out there, but few games released over the last few years hold a softer spot in my heart than Dead Island 2. Maybe it was the painfully long wait for the sequel to finally emerge, but I think it’s one of the best zombie games of recent times thanks to its varied semi-open world areas, in-depth weapon customization, and incredibly detailed gore.
