A year ago Axios blamed the migrant surge for making the US housing crisis worse, now that Vance agrees omg

 



Tim Walz got married on the 5th anniversary of the end of the Tiananmen protests, June 4, 1994, because it was a date he would remember says his wife, and even honeymooned there! but NOW he gets his dates wrong



 

In 1995, he and his wife registered a for-profit company in Nebraska to take high-school students on trips to the Communist country. Gwen Walz, a former teacher and school administrator, is listed as the president of Educational Travel Adventures, while Walz is listed as the secretary and treasurer of the company that was incorporated using their home address in Mankato, Minn., according to public documents.

They married a year earlier on June 4, 1994, the fifth anniversary of the end of the deadly Tiananmen protests. “He wanted a date he’ll always remember,” Gwen told the Scottsbluff Star-Herald in 1994. The two spent their honeymoon there, according to the paper.

Gee, who honeymoons in a place where communists defeated freedom?


 

Local fire official tells private chopper pilot not to rescue people in Western North Carolina after rescuing people or be arrested

 Helicopter pilot threatened with arrest after flying rescue missions in flood-ravaged NC 

“I can only imagine what the people were thinking. You’ve been stranded for 24, 36 hours. No way to speak with anyone. You don’t know what’s going on and you see a lifeline fly over and they keep going. I can only imagine what they were thinking.”

He added: “If I had to do it over again, I would have stopped and I would have rescued as many people until they decided they were going to arrest me.”

Officials in the town of Lake Lure could not immediately be reached by The Post on Wednesday. 

UPDATE:



 

Ford Motor sells 1.5+ million vehicles year to date, 67,689 of them EVs . . . 4.5% of the total 😂


 

The third-quarter results for Ford contributed to a 45% increase in EV sales this year through September to 67,689 units. That compares with GM on Tuesday reporting EV sales of 70,450 units through September, including a roughly 60% year-over-year rise during the third quarter. ...

Ford’s U.S. sales this year through the third quarter were up 2.7% compared with a year earlier to more than 1.5 million vehicles sold. 

More.

EVs represent just 4.9% of GM's 1.95 million vehicles sold year to date.

Meanwhile the top selling vehicles of 2023 were pick'em up trucks. The Ford F-series was numero uno at 750,789 units, followed by the Chevy Silverado at 543,780 units.

CNBC's enthusiasm for the tiny EV component competition between the big two, separated by 2,761 EV units, is . . . comical.

Harris-Biden disaster response in Western North Carolina is a disaster: 40 civilian choppers rescuing people stuck in the mountains, many at their own expense, but only 2 US government

What got me fired up about this was yesterday, me and my team did the rescue of that 11-day-old baby and all these government officials and social media, they're showing that video, pictures and video of that rescue and claiming that they have some government help with that. Even USA Today wrote an article about it saying it was a Florida National Guard that went and got it with a helicopter. No, it was me, my buddy Charlie, and a civilian named Zeb with his own personal helicopter out of Wilmington, North Carolina. 

Without that civilian, that baby would be dead. And the old lady we went and rescued after that, she'd be dead too because she had one day left of oxygen. No one was going to go get them. 

I will tell you when we go up in the air, I probably see 40 civilian helicopters. I might see two Blackhawks, National Guard, military, whatever they are. That's it.

Jane Doe alleges Doug Emhoff slapped her really hard, ending their relationship in May 2012, three friends back up her story and allege Emhoff may have caused his knocked-up nanny to miscarry


 

... The third friend, a female top company executive, said Jane told her the story in 2018. ...

'He's holding himself out to be something he absolutely is not. And that's bulls***,' said the female executive. 'I feel like people should know who their leaders really are.

'[Jane] was always leaning Democratic. I have always voted Democratic. If anything I would like to tell a story on the other side. But this is the truth,' she added.

'He's a really bad guy. To hold him out as a supporter of women is just disgusting.

'Unfortunately, you've got a nut in Trump, and then you've got not a good choice on the other side.

'People can make their own choice once they know. But I feel like transparency is the best disinfectant for bad behavior.'

The Vance-Walz debate highlighted yet another case of Tim Walz lying about his past, claiming he was in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Massacre when he was still in Nebraska

 ‘I’m a Knucklehead’: Walz Gives Disastrous Answer When Questioned on Inaccurate Claims at Debate

Minnesota Governor and Democratic vice presidential nominee Tim Walz stumbled while answering a question about his inaccurate claims about himself on Tuesday night, boasting about his “service” riding his bike as a kid and admitting “I’m a knucklehead” in a rambling answer. ...

Walz says he ‘misspoke’ after unearthed newspaper reports undercut claim he was in Hong Kong during Tiananmen Square protests 

... Walz’s claims that he was in Hong Kong during the Tiananmen Square protests have been repeated in media reports. But contemporaneous newspaper reports first resurfaced by the Washington Free Beacon, a conservative news outlet, place Walz in Nebraska around that time. An issue of the Alliance Times-Herald dated May 16, 1989, features a photo of Walz touring a Nebraska National Guard storeroom. In the photo’s caption, the paper notes that Walz “will take over the job” of staffing the storeroom from a retiring guardsman and “will be moving to Alliance,” Nebraska. A separate newspaper article about Walz’s planned trip to China published by a Nebraska-based outlet in April 1989 reported that he planned to travel to China in early August of that year. ...

 

 

 

J. D. Vance v Tim Walz and CBS debate moderators: Harris-Biden facilitate illegal immigration through CBP One application

 CBS News Cuts Mic When JD Vance Tries To Explain Mobile App For Asylum Seekers :

SEN. JD VANCE: The rules were you weren't going to fact check, and since you are going to fact-check me, it's important to say what's actually going on. There is an application called the "CBP One" app where you can go as an illegal migrant, apply for asylum or apply for parole, and be granted legal status at the wave of a Kamala Harris open border wand. That is not a person coming in and applying for a green card and waiting for ten years, that is the facilitation of illegal immigration by our own leadership. ... The CBP One app has not been on the books since 1990. It is something that Kamala Harris created.

Nothing illustrates better the threat to free speech from Democrats and the media than what CBS did to help Walz by breaking the rules in his favor and cutting the mic:

 BRENNAN: Gentlemen, the audience can't hear you because the mics are cut. We have so much we want to get to.

GM reported a 2.2% drop in third-quarter sales compared with a year earlier, slipping to 659,601 vehicles sold, 32,100 of which were EVs 🤣

. . . the automaker believes its EV sales momentum is finally building thanks to an expanding lineup of all-electric vehicles — spanning a price range of roughly $35,000 to more than $300,000 . . . 😂😂😂

Just look at these puny numbers!

 



Population-adjusted vehicle sales in the US are down almost 38% since the late 1970s

 Maybe they should make cars Americans want to buy and can afford.
