CBS News Openly Campaigns for Harris With a 60 Minutes Report on Jan 6

 Just hours after the second assassination attempt on President Trump, CBS is using their 60 Minutes Show how to attack Trump as a “threat to democracy.

Most of mainstream media is not even trying to hide it anymore. They are openly campaigning for Harris.

CBS 60 Minutes could have done this report 6 months, 12 months or 2 years after the January 6 event.

Instead they do this 50 days ahead of the election. We don’t have to ask why because why is obvious.

Who and what are the real threats to democracy here?

Polish minister, visiting Kyiv, calls for end to benefits for Ukrainian men in Europe

 European governments should halt welfare benefits to Ukrainian men of military age who are living in their countries, Poland's foreign minister said, a measure he said would help Ukraine call up more troops to fight Russian forces.

Following a meeting in Kyiv with his Ukrainian counterpart, Poland's Radoslaw Sikorski said ending social benefits for Ukrainian male refugees would also benefit state finances in host countries in Western Europe.

More than 4.1 million Ukrainians had temporary protection status in European Union countries as of July this year, and about 22% of them were adult men, according to data from the EU statistics office, Eurostat.

"Stop paying those social security payments for people who are eligible for the Ukrainian draft. There should be no financial incentives for avoiding the draft in Ukraine," Sikorski said at a conference of international leaders in Kyiv.

"It's not a human right to be paid to avoid the draft, to defend your country. We in Poland don't do it."

Ukrainian Foreign Minister Andrii Sybiha welcomed Sikorski's call.

"It's time really to raise the question of the European Union developing programmes to return Ukrainians home. Certainly, appropriate conditions should be created for this. But this should be on the agenda. And I support the idea of Minister Sikorski," Sybiha said.

Nearly 31 months into the war against Russia and with Moscow's forces slowly but steadily advancing in eastern Ukraine, Kyiv needs more soldiers to maintain its defence lines, rotate out exhausted troops and make up for losses.

Russia has a significant advantage in staff numbers and weapons on the battlefield.

Earlier this year, Ukraine adopted new legislation and implemented other measures, including lowering the call-up age for combat duty to 25 from 27 to increase the pace of mobilisation into the army.

Under the new law, Kyiv ordered Ukrainian men living abroad to renew their military draft information online and encouraged them to return to Ukraine and join the fight.

Ukraine imposed martial law at the start of Russia's invasion in February 2022, banning men aged 18 to 60 from travelling abroad without special permission and beginning a rolling mobilisation of civilian men into the armed forces.

But many men of military age have still fled abroad to avoid the draft amid reports of corruption in the army recruitment system, allowing some men to bribe their way out of army service.

FBI looking into anti-Haitian threat allegations at Springfield, Ohio, university

 The FBI said on Sunday it was assessing the credibility of threats against Haitians at Wittenberg University following claims  that the migrants in the town were eating cats and dogs.

Reported threats to open fire on Haitian migrants have forced the Springfield, Ohio, school to close its campus for a day.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation's involvement follows similar reported threats made against migrants in the town.

Wittenberg announced on Saturday evening that all events scheduled for Sunday would be canceled following the emailed threat and warned students, faculty and staff to exercise extreme caution on campus.

"The FBI is working in coordination with the Springfield police department and Wittenberg University to determine the credibility of recent threats, share information, and take appropriate investigative action," according to a statement from the FBI's Cincinnati field office.

Haitians in the town now reportedly say they fear for their safety.

University spokesperson Karen Gerboth said on Sunday the university had received a second threat "but it was quickly cleared on campus."

The university also said in an update at least one other unnamed area campus had received similar threats. In a post to the social media network X, Clark State College said it had canceled classes in a building on Thursday and Friday "due to a safety situation" in the town. A spokesperson for Clark could not be reached.

Sergeant Atkins of the Springfield Police Division, who declined to give his first name, told Reuters there was no significant activity to report in the campus area as of Sunday morning.

Carolina Roofer To Ukraine Activist: Would-Be Trump Assassin Routh in Many MSM Interviews

 Fox News confirmed earlier that the suspect in the second assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump has been identified as Ryan Wesley Routh. 

Using public records, Routh appears to be from Greensboro, North Carolina (some reports say he now lives in Hawaii) and was or still is part owner of United Roofing and Construction Inc. 

On Yelp, one negative review for "United Roofing" in late 2016 said:

"As a military member trying to buy a home before returning from a deployment, the proprietor, Ryan Routh, insulted me for trying to buy a house site unseen as many military members do returning from overseas." 

Another customer was unhappy with Routh's work in 2017:

Perhaps the shooter was just a lousy roofer who turned far-left activist at some point. FEC filings show Routh donated to 'ActBlue,' the grassroots fundraising machine for the Democratic Party. 

In the days after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, corporate media ran their propaganda machine, and it was possibly at that point that turned Routh into a NATO activist.

What's startling is that corporate media, such as NYTimes, Financial Times, Semafor, and others, paraded the shooter around with a number of quotes about Ukraine and Taiwan: 

FT News: 

"It's a pretty big yard, but the front bank is completely full," Ryan Routh, an American volunteer who started the memorial last year, said. "There may be 10,000 at this point. 'Flags of the fallen' is what I've been calling it." 

Routh, a former construction worker who lives in Hawaii, is one of the thousands of foreigners who, after seeing news reports about the invasion, travelled into Ukraine in early 2022 to volunteer as fighters or medics.

Semafor:

"Most of the Ukrainian authorities do not want these soldiers," said Ryan Routh, head of the International Volunteer Center in Ukraine, a private organization which helps foreigners seeking to assist the war effort connect with military units and aid groups. "I have had partners meeting with [Ukraine's Ministry of Defense] every week and still have not been able to get them to agree to issue one single visa."

The New York Times article backs up the Russian Defense Ministry's information regarding the countries which are actively trying to recruit mercenaries to join the fight in Ukraine. It wrote about Ryan Routh, a former construction worker from North Carolina who spent several months in Ukraine last year and is now seeking recruits among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban. He plans to move them to Ukraine from Pakistan and Iran – in some cases, illegally. Nevertheless, dozens of people have apparently expressed an interest.

NYTimes

With Legion growth stalling, Ryan Routh, a former construction worker from Greensboro, N.C., is seeking recruits from among Afghan soldiers who fled the Taliban. Mr. Routh, who spent several months in Ukraine last year, said he planned to move them, in some cases illegally, from Pakistan and Iran to Ukraine. He said dozens had expressed interest. "We can probably purchase some passports through Pakistan, since it's such a corrupt country," he said in an interview from Washington.

Taiwan News 

The man behind the wall of banners, Ryan Routh, told CNA that he posted the flags to pay tribute to the nations that have citizens fighting in Ukraine's foreign legion, the International Legion of Territorial Defense of Ukraine. Routh said there have been no protests about the presence of the Taiwan flag so far, but even if China is dissatisfied, "I can order another 1,000, they can't touch my flags."

Routh, 56, originally hails from Hawaii, but most recently worked in the construction industry in North Carolina and has no military background. He came to Kyiv more than two months ago to show his support for Ukraine and wanted to join the foreign legion.

However, due to his age, he was unable to do so, and he is instead currently assisting the legion in recruiting volunteers for the Alpha, Bravo, and Charlie units in Kharkiv. Thus far, Routh has assisted in recruiting 70 volunteers to join the fight against Russia.

Routh began posting flags on the wall of a sandbagged monument in Kyiv's Independence Square. He told the news agency that he included Taiwan's flag because he had met at least five Taiwanese volunteers serving in the legion over the past two months and learned about Taiwan's contribution to Ukraine's war effort.

According to Routh, he has yet to receive any protests from China about the presence of the Taiwan flag. He said that any pressure that would come from China would be "nothing" compared to the daily assault by Russian forces on every soldier who supports Ukraine.

He said that he will continue to stay in Kyiv and encourage more people to fight against Russia. European countries deliver truckloads of food, medical supplies, and military equipment, but Ukraine may need three to four times more support, estimated Routh.

The volunteer pointed out that there are only 50 national flags on the stone wall, meaning that there are over 100 countries that do not have a single soldier that has volunteered to fight for Ukraine, "This is unacceptable." He emphasized the war between Russia and Ukraine is a battle of good versus evil.

Routh asserted that at this critical moment, all countries should give their soldiers unpaid leave and provide air tickets to fly to Ukraine to participate in the war to prevent Russia from starting another war. "We should be united and share success and failure, which is what these flags stand for," said Routh.

And Newsweek... 

What's been very odd about this shooter is that his digital footprint wasn't instantly erased in the minutes following the attempted assassination. However, big tech has just started.  

Routh's X account was just suspended. 

Yup.

And this. 

Oh wow.

Progressive Suicide Cult Is Rolling Out The Welcome Mat For The Third World

 There's no way around it, the open borders issue has become the key social issue of the 2024 election cycle and perhaps the most concerning problem of our era.  Nearly every election poll shows the economy and immigration as the deciding factors in who Americans will vote for. 

Foreign policy has recently become a close third on the list with fear of escalating war with Russia, and Democrats have tried to distract by adding abortion to the mix but the public isn't taking the bait (Note to Democrats: Parking a mobile abortion clinic outside your convention is a bad look no matter how you spin it).  The immigration debate continues to dominate US discourse and the vast majority of conservatives and independents want the flood of illegals to stop.

Most Democrats, on the other hand, still consider immigration to be a non-issue and continue to support making it easier for illegal migrants to become citizens.

In cities like New York, Washington DC and Chicago the dangers of open immigration are readily apparent.  Democrat sanctuary cities are cesspools with rising crime, rising homelessness, crippled welfare programs and fleeing businesses.  Things are so bad that NYC is paying migrants up to $5000 a pop just to get out of the packed homeless shelters and find permanent housing elsewhere. This is, of course, after Mayor Eric Adams warned that New York cannot take in more migrants.

So, leftist politicians admit the migrant crisis is destroying their cities, yet they offer even greater incentives for migrants to illegally enter the country?  The political left refuses to change course in the face of overwhelming evidence that immigration is a net negative.  Why?

The situation in Ohio might give us some insight into the suicidal psychology of the average progressive.  After Donald Trump mentioned reports of Haitian migrants in Springfield eating the local park wildlife (a reality confirmed by the Ohio Attorney General), along with people's pets disappearing, the media went into overdrive trying to "debunk" the claim.  Democrats are desperate to mitigate the immigration issue as much as possible and any negative news is quickly attacked and obscured.  (It should be noted that migrants in NY have taken to cooking rats in BBQs on city sidewalks, further showcasing the reality that these people are never going to assimilate to western culture).

Organized progressive activists show up wherever there's a story damaging to the multicultural narrative.  They swiftly appeared in Aurora, CO to "debunk" the stories of Venezuelan gangs taking over the city (which ended up being true).  Now they're organizing in Ohio to show America that they are a part of one big happy multicultural family with slogans like "Hate Has No Home Here" and "We're Not Eating Cats..."

There are multiple reasons why progressives ignore the truth about immigration. 

First, Democrats don't care about freedom or foreign people gaining freedom, they proved that during the pandemic lockdowns.  What they do care about more than anything else is power, and in their minds those millions of migrants are useful in leveraging power.  They represent millions of future Democratic votes, bought and paid for with American tax dollars.  If they can't win on policy or ideology, they'll simply import voters that will agree with their policies in exchange for handouts.  

Second, they think the US is a "melting pot" and is traditionally required to allow an endless cycle of migrants in.  This is false and it's the same attitude that has led to the ongoing destruction of Europe.  Times change, policies change, and what might have been advantageous to America a hundred years ago is now detrimental.  No foreigner has a right to US soil.

Third, they are incapable of admitting when they're wrong.  Even when they do realize they've made a terrible error in judgement that has put their comfortable lives at risk, they would rather pretend to be happy in their suffering than give their enemies a win.

Fourth, they want to "stick it to conservatives" no matter the cost and they don't care if they self destruct in the process.  Leftists are like suicide bombers; they will happily virtue signal themselves into an early grave if it means they can take their political enemies down with them.   

Springfield, OH, a city of 60,000 people, has just been overrun with over 20,000 third-world migrants with no inkling of how western culture functions.  This is the real story, and the cooking of park animals and pets is a side issue.  This kind of cultural replacement cannot be allowed.  Progressives have abandoned reason for madness in their endless quest to get an edge over conservatives.    

UK PM Starmer pledges migration cooperation ahead of Italy talks

 British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has promised "a new era" in cross-border cooperation to tackle people smuggling gangs ahead of talks on Monday with Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni, part of his push to reset Britain's relations with Europe.

Starmer has put renewing ties with European leaders at the top of his diplomatic agenda since winning an election in July, and Monday's visit to Rome follows trips to Berlin, Paris and Dublin in recent weeks.

Heading to Rome to meet Meloni, who had close ties with Starmer's predecessor Rishi Sunak, Starmer will stress his commitment to tackling illegal migration and the need to work with European partners to smash the business model of the illegal networks that fuel it.

Starmer has scrapped the previous government's contentious plan to deport asylum seekers who arrive in small boats to Rwanda, but has not ruled out arrangements that would see asylum claims processed offshore, similar to an agreement Italy has struck with Albania.

Ahead of the talks with Meloni, Starmer said Martin Hewitt, a former chair of the National Police Chiefs' Council, would run a new Border Security Command which would be empowered to lead joint investigations with other countries.

"No more gimmicks. This government will tackle the smuggling gangs who trade the lives of men, women and children across borders," Starmer said, promising "a new era of international enforcement to dismantle these networks, protect our shores and bring order to the asylum system".  

Earlier on Sunday, French authorities said eight people had died trying to cross the Channel after their boat got into difficulty, bringing the death toll in attempted crossings to 46 since the start of the year.

Starmer's Labour government has said it will step up deportation flights and use money saved from the Rwanda scheme to help law enforcement to tackle the crossings.

During his visit to Italy, Starmer will visit the National Coordination Centre for Migration to discuss Italy's approach to the issue, which has seen a 60% drop in irregular arrivals by sea, his office said.

He will also raise defence matters in the talks with Meloni, which could touch on Britain's involvement in the GCAP fighter jet project with Italy and Japan.

In July, Starmer emphasised the programme's importance, dampening some speculation it could be axed in a defence review, but he stopped short of guaranteeing continued British involvement.
