TODAY'S NEWS, July 16, 2024 - The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow

IN POLITICAL NEWS

1) President Trump made a victorious and emotional appearance at the first night of the GOP Convention, sporting a bandage over his wounded ear. Tearing up at times as Lee Greenwood sand "Proud to be an American," Trump had earlier named U.S. Senator J.D. Vance as his veep running mate. He told one reporter that on Saturday "I wanted to keep speaking but I just got shot."

2) Billionaire Bill Ackman formally endorsed President Trump a couple of days after Elon Musk said he was putting up hundreds of millions of dollars to defeat Rutabaga, and a new poll shows President Trump up 3 in Virginia.

3) Two rally attendees who were shot have been upgraded from critical to stable. Corey Comparatore, who was also shot, died at the scene.

4) The latest from the Deep State is to now blame an "Iranian" plot to kill President Trump. Yeah. An "Iranian" who was a member of fascist Antifa, who voted DemoKKKrat his whole life. Suuuure.

5) An unpredictable and amazing development as the head of the Teamsters' Union spoke at the GOP Convention and the union endorsed President Trump.

6) In a follow-up to the story about Rutabaga's "disastrous" meeting with the DemoKKKrat minion congressmen, Zerohedge reported that Rutabaga said "If I slow down, I can't get the job done . . . . But there's no indication of that yet. Zero." You mean except for the 10-4 schedule, the "getting more sleep," the need to have aides prop you up wherever you walk? that? Oh and he couldn't read his note card after that. When one rep said voters weren't sure they wanted him at the helm, he said "I don't want to hear that crap." Yikes! Then, when asked about the failures of the SS and the female director he appointed, he said, "I've heard from HIM." What, we're genderbending now? And if Rutabaga's week can't get any worse, Tara Reade has filed 3rd degree sex offense charges against the Demented Pervert. I'm waiting for the mother of a hair-sniffed kid to jump in. And the cherry on top? Rutabaga tells Nothing But Communists (NBC) that he sees "F Biden" signs everywhere he goes. That probably includes the White House bedroom.

7) The DNC is forging ahead with plans for a virtual nomination by July 27, although some are now complaining---now that the Trump assassination attempt is out of the news.

8) Oh, and the SS DEI hire who heads the agency? They didn't put snipers on the shooter's roof because "it was sloped" and dangerous. Course, so was the other roof that they were on. Lies, lies, lies.

9) Nevertheless, as I have been reminding you, Rutabaga IS the DNC candidate, as confirmed here in Axios, where the DNC will 'Run out the clock" on alternatives, nominate in the "next two weeks."

10) Remember that in addition to jailing President Trump, one of the demons' goals was to bankrupt him through legal fees, the Carroll case, Judge Engeron, and Porny. Oops. His Truth Social stock, which had already increased his wealth by 1/3, has soared after the assassination attempt.

11) This is only a half-truth from the corrupted Politico: "Trump meets with RFK, Jr. to seek endorsement." No, he met with RFK to find common ground. If RFK endorsed, so much the better. But I bet there were a LOT of discussions about Dr. Fallacy and medical freedom and food freedom.

12) Earlier I reported that the U.S. Marshals had arrested 200 violent criminals in a massive Wisconsin sting. Now they announce they have found 200 missing children. What is this all about?

13) Support for nationalist parties grow while support for greens fade.

14) Police in Milwaukee killed an armed suspect a mile from the RNC convention.

15) U.S. Senator from New Jersey, Bob Menendez, has been found guilty of taking bribes---but of course, unlike any GOP elected official, he will not be forced to stop down.

16) Residents in an Illinois city were ordered to evacuate due to an imminent dam failure.

17) What a way to go. A bank exec was hit by a cracked tree limb that pinned her and crushed her before rescue teams could cut her out.

IN ILLEGAL CRIMINAL ALIEN NEWS

18) Rutabaga's administration admitted to flying illegal criminals from Kollyfornia to Texas at $80k a pop.

IN ECONOMIC NEWS

19) The housing market struggles as home sales drop.

20) Don't look now but Microsoft just fired a DEI team and sent an internal email saying the demonic DEI is no longer "Business critical." Psst. Microsoft: it never was.

21) Mod Pizza may be filing for bankruptcy soon. Like it, but hate its woke values. so tough toenail.

22) Oh? So BlackRock actually had an ad featuring the Trump shooter?

N INTERNATIONAL NEWS

23) Huns are phasing out their Huawei 5G components within five years.

24) J.D. Vance correctly said the UK is becoming an Islamist country. And the UK media melted down.

25) There is major flooding in China, as the Three Gorges Dam had to open spillways that led to entire cities being isolated and under many feet of water.

26) Japan already has a Trump superhero anime.

IN ENTERTAINMENT NEWS

27) So-called comedian Jack Black had his band's tour canceled after one of his band members told an audience "Next time don't miss." Australia reportedly wanted to deport him.

28) "Flip or Flop's" Christina Hall, chasing Liz Taylor's record for most divorces, now has her third.

AND FINALLY . . .

29) This article delineates the enormous lifetime cost of owning a dog. Yeah, we know. I picked up little Peanut off a hot Arizona street. No tag, no chip. So she was ours. Bladder problems, ingrown nails. After $3,000 she was healthy. Until we returned home from church one day and she was dead in a pool of her own blood. Easily the sweetest and most loving doggie I ever had, and I'd do it all again.
