California’s Democrat Governor Gavin Newsom will choose Dianne Feinstein’s replacement.

Dianne Feinstein died Thursday night at the age of 90. She was the longest-serving woman in the US Senate.

Feinstein was also one of the most corrupt Senators, and that is saying a lot. She served on the Senate Intelligence Panel yet she was caught with a Chinese spy on her payroll — a man she had employed and paid for over 20 years.

Feinstein reportedly ‘found out’ that her staffer was a Chinese spy in 2013–while she was the Chairwoman of the Senate Intelligence Committee. The Chinese spy mysteriously appeared on the scene in 1993 just ONE YEAR after Feinstein was elected to the Senate in 1992.

Dianne Feinstein and her 3rd husband Richard Blum (he’s now dead) whom she married in 1980 also made MILLIONS of dollars off of their financial interests in China.

Newsom is going to replace Feinstein with a black woman.

NBC News reported:

As California’s political class on Friday mourns the death of Democratic Sen. Dianne Feinstein, it is also privately buzzing about what happens to her now-vacant Senate seat.

Feinstein had already announced she would not run for re-election in 2024, triggering a competitive election to select a successor. Now, her death will force Democratic Gov. Gavin Newsom to appoint a replacement to serve out the remainder of the term — a politically fraught decision he has been dreading having to make.

An appointment could upend California’s blockbuster Senate primary, which pits high-profile Democratic Reps. Adam Schiff, Katie Porter, and Barbara Lee against each other ahead of an all-party primary in March.

Earlier this month on “Meet the Press,” Newsom said he would make an “interim appointment” and suggested he would choose a black woman to replace Feinstein.

Newsom is now looking to appoint Feinstein’s replacement. This means California will have two Senators who were not elected by the people.

Recall that Newsom appointed Alex Padilla to replace Kamala Harris.

Did Alex Padilla illegally purchase his senate seat?

Alex Padilla is a crooked Democrat politician who has been swimming in the California swamp for decades.

Republicans on the House Oversight and House Administration Committees previously demanded an investigation into Alex Padilla over a “highly questionable” taxpayer-funded $35 million no-bid contract his office gave to a firm linked to the Biden campaign.

Padilla’s office took grant money from a Coronavirus stimulus package and funneled it to the Biden-linked firm to influence the federal election.

“As you know, the use of HAVA funds for voter contact is a violation of the law,” Republican lawmakers wrote. “According to the U.S. Election Assistance Commission, HAVA grants cannot be used to get out the vote or encourage voting.”

“Secretary Padilla’s decision to fast-track a no-bid contract to a pro-Biden firm raises serious ethical and legal questions and we must have answers immediately,” GOP Rep. Comer said in a statement to Fox News. “It appears taxpayer funds were illegally allocated by Padilla’s office to enable Democrat operatives to contact voters and potentially have access to sensitive voter information.”

California is the ultimate swamp. No doubt Feinstein’s replacement will be someone even more evil and radical.

A member of the Democrat ‘Squad’ flip-flopped on her self-proclaimed life-long advocacy of “improving prison conditions” and “overturning wrongful convictions” within seconds when pressed by The Gateway Pundit to address the shellshocking over-sentencing of January 6 political prisoners.

Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., initially assured she is committed to “the real fight of criminal reform” when confronted by this reporter outside the Russell Senate Office Building in Washington, DC.

“There have always been two justice systems in this country, one for the wealthy and well-connected, and one for everybody else,” Pressley told TGP in an exclusive interview. “If people, in earnest, really do want to work on on issues, or relative to criminal legal reform, and improving prison conditions and overturning wrongful convictions, I certainly welcome their partnership.”

The “anti-racist” lawmaker then sang a different tune in regard to the January 6 defendants.

J6ers, who have a 99 percent conviction rate and are being handed longer sentences than murderers, rapists, and pedophiles for trespassing in the Capitol building while peacefully protesting a stolen election, deserve to be tortured in a gulag, Pressey argued.

“I’ve been in this fight for a long time in a meaningful way when it comes to criminal legal reform and having a justice system that is one that is truly just for everyone. We have a long way to go. You and I disagree on who’s actually been adversely impacted by that system as someone who was here on January 6,” she scolded.

Pressley and Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., incepted the so-called progressive ‘squad’ of lawmakers when they took office after the 2018 midterms.

The Massachusetts congresswoman notoriously called for national “civil unrest” following the death of George Floyd.

Pressley, in tandem with other high-ranking Democrats, rubber-stamped looting and rioting in 2020 amid an “emergency” shutdown of the US economy.

Eagerly exploiting militant Black Lives Matter and Antifa groups to sow racial division, Pressley routinely urged her constituents to burn down cities across the nation in a desperate effort to defund the police in the name of “social justice.”

“There will be unrest in our streets for as long as there is unrest in our lives,” she proclaimed to state-run media ahead of the 2020 presidential race. “There needs to be unrest in the streets for as long as there’s unrest in our lives.”

The Biden administration is weaponizing the Federal Bureau of Investigations against patriots in the same manner the Clinton administration weaponized law enforcement against black and Hispanic men, deemed “super predators” in the the Biden-supported 1995 Clinton Crime bill, this reporter shot back.

Pressley has warned, “The roots of policing can be traced to the antebellum slave patrols of the South, which led to the establishment of all-white police departments.”

But the globalist mouthpiece emphatically defended and commended the allegedly “all-white” cops who murdered Americans on January 6.

The cops who indiscriminately fired rubber bullets, tear gas and flash grenades at a crowd of peaceful protesters surrounding the building historically revered as The People’s House are “the real patriots,” Pressley admonished.

“I don’t think any of those folks are patriots,” Pressley replied, chiding January 6ers. “We were able to do the work that we needed to do only because a custodial staff, who were true patriots were in the midst of their own trauma and a day of violence and real terror, made it possible for us to continue doing our business. Those are the real patriots.”

Lt. Michael Byrd, who shot Air Force veteran Ashli Babbitt dead in broad daylight, was subsequently promoted and provided special government housing after the murder, while Officer Lila Morris who beat slain Roseanne Boyland’s unconscious body dead while she was in the midst of being trampled on the ground among a “pile” of bodies, was awarded for heroism following Jan. 6.

Pressley championed the cops who were promoted for cold-blood homicides.

“I’m grateful to all those who were doing the work of — of keeping everyone safe on a day when there was an imminent threat to members of Congress, to our staff, to personnel, to other first responders,” she gleamed. “It was a traumatic day. And I think anyone who contributed to a day of such terror and trauma should be taken into account.”

This is not a joke.
NBC News is horrified that a US government shutdown may disrupt the pipeline of greenbacks being sent off to Ukraine 5,000 miles away never to be heard from again.

Again, this is NOT a joke.

Via MSNBC News.

Ukraine once again finds itself center stage in the drama of American politics.

The looming federal shutdown is being felt in Kyiv, some 5,000 miles east of Washington, as a potential disruption of crucial American aid and argument over whether to support Ukraine at all has heightened concerns ahead of next year’s U.S. presidential election.

For Ukraine, a U.S. government shutdown “would be an unpleasant development, to say the least,” said Oleksandr Kraiev, a United States foreign policy expert at the Ukrainian think tank Prism who provides consultancy for the government in Kyiv. While the impasse might not present an immediate catastrophe for the Ukrainian military in its war with Russia, this “budgetary skirmish” could be a small dose of what’s to come.

“We’re having some kind of renaissance right now,” Kraiev said. “It’s not just the hard-line Republicans, but also the progressive Democrats who are getting more and more against foreign involvement.”

Meanwhile, 10,000 illegals a day are crossing over into the open US southern border.

Lara Trump’s new song, released today, is facing censorship from music streaming services and even billboard advertisers who appear to have violated their contract.

Clear Channel, Lara says, used the artwork she sent for a billboard in Times Square in New York City for millions to see, and they edited it to remove her name and the title of her song. Trump suggested possible legal action saying she believes this is illegal, and “I’m sure this is not the end of it for them.”

Instead of the image seen below, it just shows a photo of Lara Trump on a horse.

Photos provided by First Class Records, a sub-label of Mailman Media Music:

Mailman Media is the same production team that brought us ‘Justice for All,’ featuring Donald Trump and the J6 Choir. As The Gateway Pundit reported, the hit single reached number one on the Billboard Charts and iTunes.

The Gateway Pundit also reported that Kari Lake’s hit single with Mailman Media, ’81 Million Votes My Ass,’ appeared on multiple Billboard charts and hit number one on two Billboard charts. The song also reached number one on iTunes and number 3 on Amazon Music! Their latest single with the Truth Bombers and The Radikals, featuring a parody of Eric Clapton’s hit ‘Cocaine,’ is available here.

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that the debut song from Lara Trump and First Class Records is doing exceedingly well on its first day of release, despite censorship from Apple and Spotify. Listen to the full song here:

HUGE: Lara Trump’s ‘I Won’t Back Down’ Cover Released Today With Huge Success – CENSORED by Apple, Spotify, and NYC Billboard! – LISTEN HERE

The new song from Lara, a country-style cover of Tom Petty’s hit ‘I Won’t Back Down’, is sure to be a hit!

Lara Trump spoke to The Gateway Pundit correspondent Jordan Conradson on Friday about this bullsh*t attack on her First Amendment. Listen below:

Trump: As of about five minutes ago, the billboard company, Clear Channel, I guess, who owns this billboard, put a version of things up, but it’s not what we agreed to. It’s not what we signed on. They put up just the picture, not not a song title, not my name, just the picture of the cover of the song. That’s it.

It’s not called anything. So we wanted just the cover of the song, like the picture that you see there if you pull the song up on wherever you’re looking at it. It’s a picture me on the horse. It’s got ‘I won’t back down’ and then underneath, ‘Lara Trump.’ That’s what we wanted on the Billboard, and that’s what they agreed to put up there. And then two hours beforehand, they had a big issue, all of a sudden, with my last name on there, and they said, “well, we can’t put Lara Trump on there. We could go maybe with Lara, but Trump? Absolutely not! Is that okay?” And I told LJ, no, that is not okay. That’s my name, and there’s no way I’m accepting anything other than what they signed and agreed to.

Not only did they not put my name on there in any capacity, not my first name, not my last name, but they didn’t even put the name of the song on there.

Conradson: Do you think this was a move by the petty family? Maybe they have some kind of way to, someone to call, or something like that in the industry?

Trump:I have no idea if it has anything to do with the petty family. What I assume is that there’s someone at Clear Channel who felt like it was acceptable to discriminate against me because of my last name and because of who my father-in law is, and that’s totally unacceptable. They signed a contract, we paid for it, and they agreed to do it. And it’s totally unacceptable in the 11th hour like this to come back, change in terms of things, and think that that’s okay. This is the same company, by the way, who is happy to host a Black Lives Matter billboard. They say this is political, and they don’t do politics; Black Lives Matter billboards, Planned Parenthood billboards, and teachers union billboards, on the same space, but somehow it’s problematic to put my song up there. Just the cover of the song. It’s really amazing to see.

Apple Music has pretty clearly been shadow-banning me all day. I think the same with Spotify. I got a bunch of messages this morning from people saying, “I can’t find your song anywhere.” If you type in my name on Apple Music and Spotify, way down at the bottom, after a bunch of like, nonsensical, farcical kind of like songs that have been put together; rap battles between like my father-in-law and Hillary Clinton, you’ll see my name and you’ll see the song. However, if you search for I won’t back down on Apple Music, on Spotify, go to the song list, and you won’t see my version of the song on there at all. There are dozens of different variations of it, obviously, including Tom Petty’s, but mine doesn’t show, and that’s really interesting.

Conradson: That’s ridiculous. So basically, if you were to take your maiden name, do you think they would not be banning you?

Trump: I would assume that if it was my maiden name, or literally any other name, you pick it out of a pile, probably if my last name was Biden, I could assume they’d put it up there, but because my last name is Trump, apparently that’s an issue.

Conradson: What else do you have to say about this? I mean, just the discrimination against you, your family, and conservatives in general in America?

Trump: I think that the bias is clear. And I think that there’s an obvious double standard on nearly every front in this country. And the sad news is that these people aren’t even trying to hide it. They’re so overt with it, and they’re so willing to do things like this to people who are outward about their conservative values, and I certainly am, my family certainly is, and there are no two ways about that. But that’s not how this country is supposed to work. That’s not how things are supposed to go. It is discriminatory to do what these people are doing. They’re discriminating against me based on my political values, and that’s not right. I haven’t done anything to deserve treatment like this. We paid up front, we had a signed contract, and the fact that they’re able to do this is really sad. Unfortunately, I think it’s also illegal. And so I’m sure this is not the end of it for them, as far as we’re concerned.

 The song is available HERE on all major streaming platforms.

Lara Trump released her first song at midnight on Friday with Mailman Media’s new country music sub-label, First Class Records, and it is already doing very well on the charts.

Lara’s song gives Tom Petty’s hit ‘Won’t Back Down’ a country spin and will be released on September 29. The song is available HERE.

The song already had over 75,000 pre-saves and pre-orders before today. “This will likely be our best-performing record yet,” First Class Records President LJ Fino recently told The Gateway Pundit. The song already peaked at number 27 on iTunes for all genres.

However, Lara Trump told The Gateway Pundit in an exclusive interview that Apple Music and Spotify have “pretty clearly been shadow-banning me all day.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Fake News Newsweek attacked Lara, calling the song a “cheap move” against the family of the late Tom Petty, who previously threatened legal action against President Trump for using the song at his campaign rallies and made nasty accusations.

Joe Biden on Friday delivered remarks at General Milley’s retirement ceremony at Joint Base Myer-Henderson Hall in Arlington, Virginia. Air Force Chief General Charles Q. Brown will take over for Milley.

Outgoing rogue General Mark Milley took a veiled shot at Trump during his remarks.

“We don’t take an oath to a king, or queen, or tyrant, or dictator,” Milley declared. “We don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator. We don’t take an oath to an individual. We take an oath to the Constitution, and we take an oath to the idea that is America, and we’re willing to die to protect it.”

“Every soldier, sailor, airman, marine, guardian, and Coast Guardsman, each of us commit our very life to protect and defend that document regardless of personal price,” he added.

A true three-way presidential race is about to be underway.

Mediaite reported Friday that Robert F. Kennedy Jr. will be leaving the Democratic Party primary race to run as an independent.

A Kennedy campaign adviser explained to Mediaite the reason for Kennedy’s change of heart:

Bobby feels that the DNC is changing the rules to exclude his candidacy so an independent run is the only way to go.

The Gateway Pundit immediately reached out to the Robert Kennedy ’24 campaign for a statement.  We will update our reporting when we hear back from the campaign.

But that is not all. The news gets worse for Biden and the Democrats: in preparation for the announcement, Team Kennedy is planning “attack ads” against the Democratic National Committee in order to “pave the way” for his announcement. One wonders what, if any dirt, they have on these scoundrels.

In July, Greg Gutfeld proposed Kennedy ditch the Democrats and go third party.

I think he should run as a third party candidate because I do think he should, he would win, is because his party’s radical elements, what we call the woke, have embraced this fascist clampdown on language.

Earlier this month, in an interview on “Forbes Newsroom” with Diane Brady, 2024 Democratic Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. accused the Democratic National Committee (DNC) of undermining the democratic process by enacting rules aimed at preventing a fair primary election. According to Kennedy, the DNC’s moves make it impossible for any candidate, including himself, to challenge Joe Biden.

Kennedy highlighted that the DNC had shifted the Iowa primary and had instituted rules that penalize candidates who campaign in certain states.

“If any candidate sets foot in the state of Iowa or New Hampshire, none of the votes that are cast for that candidate will be tallied,” Kennedy said. He added that the DNC is considering rules that would also nullify votes cast for him in states like Georgia if he campaigns in New Hampshire.

“They’ve made rules that if any candidate sets foot in the state of Iowa or sets foot in the state of New Hampshire, then none of the votes that are cast for that candidate will be tallied. In other words, any delegate that I win in New Hampshire or Iowa would go instead to the President. And now they’re trying to change it so that if I campaign in New Hampshire that none of the votes cast for me in Georgia will count. That’s significant because it’s hard to win the nomination without Georgia,” RFK Jr. said.

According to Kennedy, the DNC’s control over super delegates and automatic delegates makes it virtually insurmountable for any candidate other than Biden to secure the nomination. Kennedy pointed out that he would need to win almost 80% of all states to outmaneuver Biden, assuming Biden only wins 20% of the vote.

“If you add up all the super-delegates that they control, and all of the automatic delegates that just go to the party, I would have to win almost 80% of all the states,” RFK Jr. said.

“It’s pretty clear that the DNC does not want a primary,” said Kennedy. “They’re effectively disenfranchising the Democratic voters from having any choice in who becomes president or who becomes the Democratic nominee.”

Kennedy expressed that such actions from the DNC serve to confirm the growing sentiment among Americans that democracy is broken and the political system is rigged. “We live in a time in American history when a lot of Americans think that democracy is broken,” said Kennedy. “And unfortunately, the DNC is taking steps that confirm that outlook.”

When Brady asked Kennedy about his future strategy, he stated that if the DNC continues its rigging, he would need to look for alternative routes to victory.

“If the DNC is going to rig it so that it is simply impossible for anybody to challenge President Biden, then I need to look at other alternatives because I can’t go back to the people support me and to my donors… I need to show them a road to victory,” said Kennedy Jr.

“What kind of alternatives would you be exploring Mr. Kennedy,” asked Brady.

“I don’t know exactly because I want to see what the DNC does,” RFK Jr.

“I want to see if they make it a fair contest. And I’m not asking that it be 100% fair, but I’m asking that there at least be a chance that it be plausible for somebody else to win other than their chosen anointed candidate,” he added.

A new survey from the Golden Gate Restaurant Association found that only three percent of San Francisco restaurants say they were not victims of vandalism or property crime in the last month.

The organization spoke to 74 restaurants for the survey.

The city has spent over $1 million on grants for vandalism relief since 2021 but the relaxed stance on crime has left them unable to slow the damage. Nearly 800 businesses have been given grants to repair damage and clean up vandalism over the last two years.

The issue has become so pervasive that the San Francisco Police Department has an officer investigating graffiti full-time.

The San Francisco Chronicle reports, “In the last six months, San Francisco’s 311 call center received 10,000 reports of graffiti on commercial buildings and sidewalks. Overall, graffiti cleanup is one of the city’s most common service requests, yet its response rate has been slow. Public Works’ goal is to respond to graffiti requests on public property within 48 hours and on private property within 72 hours. But since 2021, the department’s ‘on-time’ response rate has been below 55%, even hitting a low of 14% in 2022.”

“The city also launched a $4 million, two-year pilot program last year to offer free graffiti abatement to businesses in certain commercial corridors,” the report added. “Restaurant owners who received vandalism grants said they were helpful but ultimately an insufficient solution to a pervasive problem.”

In 2014, the city passed Proposition 47, which made the theft of merchandise valued under $950 a misdemeanor. These crimes are almost never investigated, giving shoplifters a free pass to loot any business they want.

Vandalism isn’t the only problem in the liberal stronghold.

“Overall crime in San Francisco is slightly down this year, but certain types of violent crime are up, according to police data. Murder is up 3% to 40 murders so far. Robberies are up 16% to 2,039 robberies so far. Car thefts are up 11% to 5,038 thefts,” the Daily Wire reports.

In January 2023, as reported by The Gateway Pundit, Shasta County, CA courageously voted to end their contract with Dominion Voting Systems during a tense meeting of the county supervisors.  Supervisor Patrick Jones led the charge to end the contract while Supervisors Chris Kelstrom and Kevin Crye joined him in the 3-2 vote to terminate.

The then-acting county CEO, Patrick Minturn said it would cost the county at least $1 million to bring in new electronic voting systems and train employees.  So Shasta County supervisors instead voted not to bring in any voting machine and instead resort to hand-marked, hand-counted paper ballots.  This apparently struck a nerve with some locals and the State Assembly.

Since the vote for a hand-marked, hand-counted paper ballot, Shasta Co Supervisor Kevin Crye has faced a recall petition that had received almost 5,000 signatures of the required 4,151 to qualify the recall as of September 12th.  The recall vote is likely to appear on the March 2024 ballot in Shasta County.  You can support Supervisor Kevin Crye and read up on his uphill battle here.  The election aspect of this podcast begins around 29:45:

California Assembly Usurps Local Control Over Elections

Just a few weeks after Shasta County voted to cancel their contract with Dominion Voting Systems, which did not require a reason but did require 30-days notice, California Assemblymen Gail Pellerin, the Chair of the Elections Committee, introduced AB 969.  The bill sought to essentially ensure all jurisdictions use a certified voting system and abandon “manual vote counts”.  On September 8th, 2023, the bill was adopted and immediately implemented due to its “urgency”.

From AB 969:

“Existing law specifies procedures for manual vote counts for a semifinal official canvass in a precinct…after the polls have closed, commencing a public count of the ballots cast, unopened, to ascertain whether the number of ballots corresponds with the number of signatures on the roster. These manual vote count procedures apply to all elections in which ballots are counted by hand.

This bill would prohibit an elections official from performing a manual vote count in a semifinal official canvass pursuant to the above procedures in any contest held on an established election date, as specified, where there are more than 1,000 registered voters eligible to participate in that election as of 154 days in advance of the election, or in any contest held on a date other than an established election date, where there are more than 5,000 registered voters eligible to participate in that election as of 154 days in advance of the election…”

AB 969 also added Section 19207.5 to the Elections Code.  19207.5 reads:

362. "Voting system" means any mechanical, electromechanical, or electronic system and its software, or any combination of these used to cast or tabulate votes, or both. Assembly-member Gail Pellerin, District 28, Chair of Elections Committee

The beef cubes Nelson’s company offers are sous vides, then freeze-dried to give them maximum shelf-life. They are stored in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers, making the packages shelf-stable for at least a decade; some rate freeze-dried beef as remaining fresh for 25-years without refrigeration. Here are seven reasons it behooves Americans to stock up on beef for long-term survival.

1. The Rise of “Alternatives” to Real Meat

The war against cows has prompted heavy investments and strong backing by some of the most nefarious globalists on the planet. It seems every “billionaire Bond villain” from Bill Gates to George Soros is investing in companies that promote “beef alternatives” like cultivated meats and insects.

But it’s not just the billionaire bad guys behind it all. Governments such as the Biden-Harris regime and non-government organizations like the World Economic Forum have gone to great lengths to not only elevate meat alternatives, but to attack the real meat industry. It’s not enough for them to offer alternatives. They want to be the only available option.

2. Prices on Steaks Are Skyrocketing

Food prices have been rising significantly over the last couple of years, but meat products have been hit even harder than most others. Beef and chicken have been well-documented with their price increases but pork prices are rising even faster. Oddly, bacon is the only pork product that has not taken a major hit. For beef, the biggest victims are steak-lovers.

According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS), prices for all uncooked beef steaks were up 5.5% year-over-year. This statistic alone is concerning, but when we look at the month-over-month numbers, the trend is even more frightening. Beef steak prices rose 2.7% from April to May alone.

3. The Quiet Push for mRNA Injections in Cows

If you haven’t heard anything from corporate media about the ongoing push to inject cattle with mRNA vaccines, it’s because they’re trying to keep it quiet. Many government officials at both the state and national level are doing the same. Even many rancher groups are acquiring political capital by endorsing the practice.

But just like the attack on gas stoves, the “debunked” claims about mRNA jabs in cows will soon become fact. It has already happened to pork; since 2018, American pigs have been receiving mRNA injections and nobody has talked about it.

Today, American cattle is free of mRNA injections. But unless a legislative miracle happens, that status will soon change. Thus far every legal avenue to keep cows unjabbed has been thwarted, but we continue to fight the good fight. And as Nelson recently noted, “I’ll shut down the company before we ship a single bag of mRNA-injected meat.”

4. Climate Change Hysteria Is Being Normalized

There are two types of people who are pushing the concept of cows somehow harming the environment. The “true believers” are fighting to eliminate cows because they’ve been made to believe they contribute to climate change. On the other end of the spectrum, there are the powers-that-be who use the specter of climate change to eliminate cows for their own insidious purposes.

Climate change is the fastest path to The Great Reset and forcing people to consume their lab-grown meat is a major tool they’ll use to control the masses.

The biggest problem we’re facing is that millions of Americans are buying into their claims. One does not need to be a “climate skeptic” in order to question how cattle are somehow now harmful to the environment. Unfortunately, critical thinking is not being applied by most, so the notion that beef is Greta Thunberg’s mortal enemy isn’t being questioned by nearly enough people.

5. Food Supply Chain Is Being Threatened

Henry Kissinger once said, “Who controls the food supply controls the people.”

In 2021, bird flu went from rare and predictable to ubiquitous and enigmatic. Entire herds of thousands of cattle are mysteriously dying from no known cause. Food processing plants have suffered more “accidents” in the past year than they’d experienced in the previous decade.

Our food supply chain is under attack.

6. Most “Prepper” Beef Is the Lowest Quality Possible

Many of us who have been engaged in preparedness for a long time likely have some form of freeze-dried beef in our supplies. A lot of times these “prepper buckets” are simply stored away in a closet, never to be touched unless disaster strikes.

Most prepper food companies know this. They’re banking on it. They hope their customers don’t actually try the food because then they’ll realize how awful it really is. That’s not universal; there are a handful of companies out there offering survival food that’s actually really good. When it comes to beef, there’s really only one.

Whole Cows doesn’t sell “beef crumbles” or scraps. They use premium cuts like Ribeye, NY Strip, and Tenderloin to produce their sous vides beef cubes. Whether someone is eating their beef because of the apocalypse or just adding it to their quick chili recipe, they will enjoy the quality. That’s why their tagline is “Eat Well During the Apocalypse.”

7. Support a Veteran-Owned, Unwoke, America First Company

Whole Cows is a veteran-owned, America First company headquartered in Texas.

Today, beef is still relatively easy to acquire. Despite rising prices, it’s still fairly inexpensive. The hard part is making it storable for the long-term. Even beef in a deep freezer is only recommended for 12-18 months.

Whole Cows takes beef that has been cut into cubes directly from the slaughterhouse. They cook the beef sous vide, then freeze it immediately to preserve freshness. From there the beef is freeze dried, then packaged in mylar bags with oxygen absorbers. The process takes over 30 hours for each bag, but that’s what it takes to make the beef retain its taste and nutritional value for years, even decades.

A beer featuring former President Donald Trump’s mugshot is on track to become the “most sought-after collector beer can in American history,” according to the brand’s founder.

Ultra Right Beer, a brand created after Bud Light’s Dylan Mulvaney fiasco, was the brainchild of conservative entrepreneur Seth Weathers.

After Trump’s arrest, the company released “CONSERVATIVE DAD’S REVENGE!” special edition cans.

According to a report from Fox Business, the company “raked in half a million dollars in just 12 hours after it released a special edition can that featured the historic mugshot of former President Trump.”

Weathers told FOX Business that the sales were the equivalent of five tractor-loads of cans. Weathers said this puts the beer on track to become “the most sought-after collector beer can in American history.”

“We knew people would go wild over these collector cans, but we had no idea the response would be this crazy,” said Weathers in a press release.

“Sales have poured in from the moment we launched,” Weathers added. “With over $1 million in beer and merchandise sales, we’ve raised over $50,000 for the legal defense of the Georgia Trump electors and the Georgia Republican Party. Conservative Dad’s Ultra Right Beer puts our money where our mouth is – we’re doing our part to fight back against the unjust persecution of American patriots.”

Ten percent of the beer’s proceeds will be donated to the Georgia Republican Party legal defense fund and the David Shafer Legal Defense Fund.

“Each sale defends conservatives against the unconstitutional prosecution by the communist Fulton County District Attorney,” Ultra Right said of Georgia prosecutor Fani Willis, who filed 13 charges against Trump related to alleged election interference.

Ultra Right anti-woke beer sold over a million dollars within its first two weeks.

During a Congressional hearing on Wednesday before the Subcommittee on Workforce Protections of the Committee on Education and the Workforce, Douglas L. Parker, the Assistant Secretary of the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA), faced tough questions from Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) and Rep. Kevin Kiley (R-CA) regarding the agency’s controversial vaccine mandate. The mandate, which the Supreme Court struck down, would have affected 84 million Americans.

Rep. Mary Miller opened her line of questioning by referring to OSHA’s emergency temporary standard released in November 2021. The rule would have required businesses with 100 or more employees to mandate COVID-19 vaccinations or regular testing for their workforce.

The OSHA Vaccination and Testing ETS refers to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration’s emergency temporary standard aimed at protecting unvaccinated employees of large employers (100 or more employees) from the risk of COVID-19 transmission in the workplace.

The ETS requires covered employers to implement a “mandatory COVID-19 vaccination policy” unless they allow employees to choose between vaccination or regular COVID-19 testing along with the use of face coverings at work. It also mandates employers to determine the vaccination status of each employee, provide time for vaccination, conduct weekly COVID-19 testing for unvaccinated employees, enforce the use of face coverings indoors, report COVID-19 fatalities and hospitalizations to OSHA, and make records available for inspection.

Miller questioned whether OSHA had the authority to enforce such a sweeping mandate. Parker responded by stating that the Supreme Court had already ruled on the matter, effectively ending the mandate.

Miller retorted, “Thank God the Supreme Court ruled on that and stopped you from doing that. You’re an unelected bureaucrat, and you do not have the power to force 84 million people to take an experimental vaccine or show their papers. You tried to fire 84 million American workers, but do you believe the court was wrong?”

Miller also brought up a statement Parker made to Reuters after the Supreme Court ruling, in which he said the decision was “unfortunate” but wouldn’t stop OSHA from encouraging employers to take adaptive measures.

Miller accused Parker and OSHA of continuing to pressure companies to enforce a vaccine mandate despite the Court’s decision.

Parker denied the allegations, stating, “That’s categorically untrue. We didn’t threaten anyone, and we didn’t demand that anyone be fired.”

“You absolutely were promoting that. The Supreme Court stopped you. Thank God. And in light of considering what would have happened if Americans refused to comply, what was your plan?” asked Miller.

Rep. Mary Miller concluded her questioning by announcing her intention to introduce amendments to strip OSHA of its power and funding.

‘I’d just like to say you are inept. It would have terrorized our economy if the American workers refused to comply, and it would have put 84 million American workers out of work.”

“I’m going to introduce amendments to strip you of your power and funding to protect the 84 million Americans who do not want to show you their vaccine papers and to protect farmers who feed Americans. Mr. Chairman, OSHA needs to be reined in. They have gone far beyond their minor, limited mission,” Miller said.

Rep. Kevin Kiley pressed Parker further, asking what would have happened to employees who did not comply with the rule. Parker’s response was vague, stating that it was “up to the employer” and that the rule “didn’t prescribe any remedies.”

Kiley criticized Parker and other administration officials for what he described as attempts to “rewrite history,” citing previous testimonies from the Secretary of Education and the Secretary of Health and Human Services that were misleading or false.

“Mr. Parker, you’re one of a number now of officials in this administration who has come before this committee and tried to tell us that two plus two doesn’t equal four,” said Kiley. “Has there been some sort of memo going around? Why is the administration insistent on rewriting history?”

Parker argued that the rule his agency promulgated was not strictly a vaccine mandate. According to him, the rule provided an alternative for employees who did not wish to get vaccinated: they could opt for regular COVID-19 testing instead.

“All you have to do is read that rule, and you will see that it is not a vaccine mandate. It gives employees the option of testing in lieu of a vaccine mandate,” Parker said.

On Wednesday, Republican House Ways and Means Committee members released over 700 pages of IRS whistleblower documents providing more than enough evidence for Republicans to prove the Biden family is an organized criminal operation.

Yesterday, the Democrat clowns on the US House Oversight Committee completely humiliated themselves as they attempted to sweep the Biden Crime Family’s international influence-peddling operation under the rug by repeatedly citing President Trump’s name, who had nothing to do with the inquiry.

During her 5 minutes of questioning, Rep. Lisa McClain (MI), a Republican US House Oversight Committee member, showed exactly why she is among the most badass women in Washington, D.C.

McClain began by asking Professor Gerhard, one of the leftist witnesses, a question, “I love the analogy that you used about the speeding ticket with Hunter Biden. Let me also see if he would agree with his analogy; if a criminal pulls the trigger for a murder, he’s guilty, right? And we can prove it. But don’t you also agree with me if somebody ordered that hit, we would charge him, too? It’s interesting that you don’t use that analogy—that’s number one,” McClain exclaimed.

After being forced to sit and listen to the lunacy of her Democrat colleagues on the other side of the aisle for hours, as they performed backflips in their efforts to defend the Biden Crime Family, Rep. McClain turned to the collection of deranged Dems and delivered the best line of the day:

“I am amazed, and I love the fact that Trump lives rent-free in the Democrat’s heads every day. That is a beautiful thing—even though we’re here talking about the impeachment inquiry of Joe Biden!”

And then—Rep. McClain brought the fire—as she broke down the evidence their committee collected on Joe and Hunter Biden’s dirty dealings with a “corrupt Romanian oligarch” while Joe Biden was Barack Obama’s vice president.

The fiery US Rep explained, “I want to talk about the damning evidence of Joe Biden‘s role in his family‘s business schemes in Romania. While Joe Biden was vice president, he was directly involved in the United States policy and anticorruption efforts in Romania. That’s a fact!”

McClain continued, “On May 21, 2014, the then-Vice President Biden delivered an anticorruption speech in Romania. Right? On September 28, 2015, the  Romanian president visited with then-Vice President Biden at the White House to discuss anticorruption efforts.” She explained, “Gabriel Popoviciu, a corrupt Romanian oligarch in the subject of a criminal probe—he’s the subject of a criminal probe and prosecution for corruption and bribery in Romania. This committee has reviewed transactions showing that the Biden family received money from a foreign company run by this Russian oligarch corrupt Gabriel Popoviciu.”

“Five weeks after the Romanian president visited with by Vice President Biden, Popoviciu begins paying Hunter Biden and his associates Rob Walker through his company, Bladon Enterprises. The money from Bladen Enterprises is deposited directly into Robinson Walker LLC. Now, this LLC is directly operated by Hunter‘s known business partner, Rob Walker. ” Rep McClain explained that she is only relaying facts that the committee has discovered in their investigation into the Biden Crime Family. “In November 2015, and again in March. 2016, Hunter Biden, who is not registered as a foreign agent under FARA, meets with the US ambassador to Romania. Red flag!” McClain states. “Then coincidentally over $1 million flows to the Bidens,” McClain said, adding, ” I’m not much for coincidences; I don’t think the American people are either.”

“Let’s run through the numbers together,” McClain told the committee members. “Between November 2015 and May 2017, Bladon Enterprises deposited over $3 million into Robinson Walker’s LLC business account. But then, the Biden family accounts received more than $1 million from Robinson Walker’s accounts after these deposits were made. Ironically, 16 of those 17 payments occurred while Joe Biden was vice president. Now, I think most Americans would find it suspicious that, ironically, these payments ended shortly after Joe Biden left office. Another coincidence.”

After Attorney Johnathan Turley explained to Rep. McClain that Hunter’s FARA violations were very similar to the same thing Trump associate Paul Manafort was charged with and placed in solitary confinement as a result of his charges, while Hunter Biden was never even charged, McClain smirked and reminded Americans who were watching the impeachment inquiry of our “two-tiered system of justice” under Joe Biden.

It’s curious that so many Democrats are willing to pretend that then-Vice President Joe Biden is innocent of any crimes for selling out America to hostile foreign nations. It’s also interesting to note that so far, neither party has even mentioned the possibility that Barack Obama, whom Joe worked side-by-side with on a regular basis, was aware of his second-in-command’s criminal activities.

House Republicans on Friday failed to pass a 30-day stopgap funding bill as a government shutdown looms.

Speaker McCarthy’s bill would have funded the government until October 31.

CNBC reported:

House GOP leaders on Friday failed to pass a partisan, short-term spending bill with fewer than two days left to fund the federal government and avoid a shutdown.

Speaker Kevin McCarthy pitched the bill as a way for his fellow Republicans to buy time to pass a slate of individual agency spending bills.

“We actually need a stop-gap measure to allow the House to continue to finish its work, to make sure our military gets paid, to make sure our border agents get paid as we finish the job that we’re supposed to do,” McCarthy told reporters.

Don’t worry because Ukraine is still getting US taxpayer money. McCarthy made sure Ukraine would still get

The House approved an additional $300 million aid for Ukraine. The decision came late Thursday night with a 311-117 vote.

The aid for Ukraine was initially part of a larger Pentagon funding bill for the fiscal year 2024.

Congressman Matt Gaetz was one of the leading Republicans who voted against McCarthy’s short-term bill.

“Last night, House Republicans agreed that we wouldn’t fund DHS unless e-verify was passed because we’d have to take a vote on HR 2,” Gaetz said on Friday morning. “Today, 11 hours later, the Continuing Resolution being considered strips mandatory e-verify and worsens our position on the border.”

“I’m voting NO!” he said.

It appears police have finally solved the mystery behind rap legend Tupac Shakur’s mysterious murder 27 years ago.

The Associated Press reported that police arrested a man in connection to Shakur’s 1996 murder early Friday morning. He was identified as Duane “Keffe D” Davis, a Compton Crip gang leader.

Davis was charged with murder with use of a deadly weapon. Police officials previously were not authorized to speak publicly ahead of an expected indictment.

The Daily Mail revealed a Nevada grand jury indicted Davis in the killing after being seated for “several months.”

The Gateway Pundit previously reported that Las Vegas police raided Davis’s wife’s home on July 17 in neighboring Henderson. Police back then were looking for items “concerning the murder of Tupac Shakur.”

The cops collected multiple computers, a cellphone and hard drive, a Vibe magazine that featured Shakur, several .40-caliber bullets, two “tubs containing photographs” and a copy of Davis’ 2019 tell-all memoir, “Compton Street Legend.”

The Daily Mail reported that insiders to the investigation claimed in August that homicide detectives were “optimistic” about bringing a charge in the case.

There is more reason to suspect Davis. The Daily Mail notes that the gangster previously bragged about killing Tupac in September 1996, in books and interviews.

Moreover, sources told The US Sun last month that Keefe D faced an imminent first degree murder charge. Las Vegas detectives said they were “optimistic” they had built enough evidence against him.

Investigators originally listed Crip gang member Orlando Anderson as the prime suspect behind the murder but Anderson was later killed in a gang related shooting.

Shakur was just 25 when he was killed in a drive-by shooting near the Las Vegas Strip on the night of Sept. 7, 1996. He was in a BMW driven by Death Row Records founder Marion “Suge” Knight alongside roughly 10 cars.

They were waiting at a red light when a white Cadillac pulled up next to them and gunfire erupted.

Retiring Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, Army General Mark Milley, took a thinly veiled shot at former President Donald Trump during his farewell ceremony on Friday, attended by Joe Biden and Secretary of Defense Lloyd J. Austin III.

The Gateway Pundit reported that Milley is departing from the highest-ranking military position in the country at midnight on Sept. 30 and will be replaced by Biden-appointed nominee Gen. Charles Q. Brown Jr.

“We don’t take an oath to a king, or queen, or tyrant, or dictator,” Milley declared. “We don’t take an oath to a wannabe dictator. We don’t take an oath to an individual. We take an oath to the Constitution, and we take an oath to the idea that is America, and we’re willing to die to protect it.”

“Every soldier, sailor, airman, marine, guardian, and Coast Guardsman, each of us commit our very life to protect and defend that document regardless of personal price,” he added.

Milley’s comments come on the heels of a post by Trump on his social media platform, Truth Social, where the former President criticized Milley’s call to China after the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol. Trump suggested that Milley’s punishment would have been DEATH.

“Mark Milley, who led perhaps the most embarrassing moment in American history with his grossly incompetent implementation of the withdrawal from Afghanistan, costing many lives, leaving behind hundreds of American citizens, and handing over BILLIONS of dollars of the finest military equipment ever made, will be leaving the military next week,” said Trump last week.

“This will be a time for all citizens of the USA to celebrate! This guy turned out to be a Woke train wreck who, if the Fake News reporting is correct, was actually dealing with China to give them a heads up on the thinking of the President of the United States. This is an act so egregious that, in times gone by, the punishment would have been DEATH! A war between China and the United States could have been the result of this treasonous act. To be continued!!!” Trump added.

It can be recalled that ‘Dumbass” Mark Milley called China behind President Trump’s back.

According to a new book “Peril” written by Bob Woodward, Mark Milley, the Joint Chiefs chairman, told China in a secret phone call that he would give advance warning if the US was ever going to attack.

“In a pair of secret phone calls (Oct. 20 and Jan. 8), Gen. Mark A. Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, assured his Chinese counterpart, Gen. Li Zuocheng of the PLA, that the U.S. would not strike, according to the new book written by Washington Post associate editor Bob Woodward and national political editor Robert Costa.

On January 8, 2021, the same day Milley reportedly spoke to China in a secret phone call, CNN ran a story claiming Pelosi had gotten assurances from Milley there are safeguards in place in the event President Trump wants to launch a nuclear weapon.

Pelosi admitted she spoke to Mark Milley in a letter to her Democrat colleagues: “This morning, I spoke to the Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Mark Milley to discuss available precautions for preventing an unstable president from initiating military hostilities or accessing the launch codes and ordering a nuclear strike. The situation of this unhinged President could not be more dangerous, and we must do everything that we can to protect the American people from his unbalanced assault on our country and our democracy.”

Swedish Prime Minister says Swedish laws ‘aren’t designed for gang wars and child soldiers’.

For decades, Sweden defended liberal immigration policies that were frankly suicidal, due to destroy its social fabric.

During the 2015 migration crisis, the Swedish took in more immigrants per capita than any other European nation.

These policies have been reversed by the former administration, and have been further tightened by current PM Ulf Kristersson’s government.

But the damage is done: about 20% of Sweden’s 10.5 million inhabitants were born abroad, and violence became a thing in the former Scandinavian paradise – Malmo became the rape capital of Europe.

This week, two more people were killed in separate shootings in Stockholm on Wednesday, and a young woman, thought to be an innocent bystander, was killed when a bomb tore up a house in Uppsala.

Reuters reported:

“Sweden’s prime minister summoned the head of the armed forces and the police commissioner in a bid to stem gang violence, he said on Thursday, following a wave of violence that has taken at least 11 lives in September alone.

[…] ‘This is a difficult time for Sweden. A 25-year-old woman went to bed last night on a completely ordinary evening but never got to wake up’, Prime Minister Ulf Kristersson said during a rare televised address to the nation. ‘We will hunt the gangs, we will defeat the gangs,” he said’.”

Kristersson won the election partly on a promise to tackle growing gang violence. It has given greater powers to police, and passed laws with harsher punishment for gun crimes.

“‘The measures have yet to take effect, but Kristersson blamed former governments for the problems. “It is an irresponsible immigration policy and a failed integration that has brought us here’, Kristersson said.”

The PM gathered the national police commissioner and the supreme commander of the armed forces, in en effort to evaluate his present options.

“The police estimate that about 30,000 people in Sweden are directly involved with or have ties to gang crime. The violence has also spread from major urban areas to smaller towns where violent crime was previously rare.”

The 11 shooting deaths have made September the deadliest month in Sweden since December 2019.

Associated Press reported:

“Getting the military involved in crime-fighting would be a highly unusual step for Sweden, underscoring the severity of the gang violence that has claimed a dozen lives across the country this month, including teenagers and innocent bystanders.

[…] It wasn’t immediately clear in what capacity the military would get involved, but previous proposals have focused on soldiers taking over protection duties from police to free up more resources for crime-fighting.

‘Sweden has never before seen anything like this’, Kristersson said in a televised speech to the nation. ‘No other country in Europe is seeing anything like this’.”

Welcoming hundreds of thousands of asylum-seekers from the Middle East and Africa has a steep societal price.

Over 60 people died in shootings last year in Sweden, the highest figure on record.

Swedish media links the latest surge in violence to a feud between rival factions of the Foxtrot Network criminal gang.

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) joined Steve Bannon on The War Room on Friday morning following the first Biden impeachment hearing on Thursday.

Republicans in Congress are also voting on funding the government today and tomorrow.

Rep. Mace went over the recent developments in the US House of Representatives with Steve Bannon.

On the Biden impeachment:

Rep. Nancy Mace: it certainly was a somewhat tough day for the way that the mainstream media covered it, because we do have evidence. We have text messages and emails corroborated by phone calls, by meetings, by dinners, et cetera, and we have this information. What I tried to do is connect the dots. And our witnesses were there to show a baseline. They’re knowledgeable about constitutional law or tax law investigations and whether or not the behavior was legal or illegal… What I’m trying to do is show that there is evidence it does exist. And if you’re going to say it doesn’t, well, guess what? I’m going to get in your face. I’m going to call you out for what you are, which is a liar, and do what I can to show the American people the proof that we have.

What’s next in the Biden impeachment:

Rep. Nancy Mace: We got to subpoena Hunter Biden and James Biden. But the bookkeeper to me is the one that knows where all the bodies are buried because this was a very complex web of accounts and LLCs and I want to know how Joe Biden got paid. It’s very clear that he got paid and I want to know how those transactions, how was the money given to Joe Biden? Was it cash? Was it gold bars? Was it through Venmo or credit cards with Hunter Biden’s name on? I mean, there are a lot of ways that money laundering can happen and we have to prove that and we’re going to have to have witnesses called.

On Joe Biden’s illegal business deals and millions in bribes.

Rep. Nancy Mace: It took months to get permission to go over to Treasury and see the first tranche of 170 SARS reports. And the amount of money that we’re talking about, it would blow your head off. Steve. I mean, it is enormous sums of money. And what we saw in the SARS reports consistently is that the Biden family got a one third cut of all the money. When I say I think it’s north of 50 million of what the Biden family cut was, you can imagine how much money we’re talking about overall. But then we find out there were seven more Bidens, there are more suspicious activity reports that we haven’t gotten access to yet… Because this is Joe Biden’s presidency, this is Joe Biden and his family, originally, we were only going to get access to one out of 170 Suspicious Activity Reports. We finally got access to all of that initial tranche. But there’s more that we haven’t even seen yet. And so it’s astounding and disgusting and shameful and unamerican to be blocked from members of Congress from doing their job on oversight and being prohibited access to these things. Whenever we want to look at… If one person or one company has one Suspicious Activity Report any lifetime that is rare. And then to see there are 170 between two members of Joe Biden’s family in like a short, truncated period of time, it’s obscene that these guys haven’t been indicted for money laundering, for wire fraud, for racketeering, for bribery.

On McCarthy playing games with the GOP Caucus.

Rep. Nancy Mace: We’re talking with some in leadership who told conservative members of our caucus there will be an impeachment before an inquiry was ever started. And the same leadership went over to moderates in the party and said, there will never be an impeachment prior to the inquiry. And so it’s really hard to tell what may or may not actually happen sometimes.

So, McCarthy is playing games with the impeachment process in order to soothe the RINOs. How shameful!

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier Friday, longtime U.S. Senator Dianne Feinstein has died at the age of 90.

Feinstein’s chief of staff James Sauls said she died Thursday night at her home in Washington D.C.

Congressional roll call records reveal just hours before her death she voted in favor of H.R.3935, the Securing Growth and Robust Leadership in American Aviation Act.

Per ABC News:

Feinstein cast her last vote in the Senate late Thursday morning, according to Senate records. According to a statement by her chief of staff, James Sauls, she died at her Washington, D.C. home Thursday night.

“Senator Feinstein never backed away from a fight for what was just and right,” Sauls said. “At the same time, she was always willing to work with anyone, even those she disagreed with, if it meant bettering the lives of Californians or the betterment of our nation.”

Governor Gavin Newsom of California will now be in charge of finding Feinstein’s replacement.

In the wake of Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s death, California Gov. Newsom may have to pick a replacement soon as the Senate will need to take “crucial votes that will potentially determine whether the lights stay on in government or not,” @nancycordes reports. pic.twitter.com/rxgABULwD4
