MSNBC Host Floats Idea of All Female Dem Ticket to Push Back on All the ‘Machismo’ of the GOP Ticket (VIDEO)
July 23, 2024
MSNBC’s Katy Tur pushed the idea of an all female Democrat ticket while speaking to Joe Scarborough on the phone on the air on Monday.
Tur suggested Michigan Governor Gretchen Whitmer as a VP for Kamala Harris, saying that an all female ticket could push back on all of the ‘machismo’ of the Republican ticket.
MSNBC host floats all-female Harris and Whitmer ticket: ‘Push back on all that machismo energy’ from GOP
MSNBC host Katy Tur suggested that Vice President Kamala Harris and Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer could run together as an all-female ticket to push back against GOP “machismo” on Sunday.
“I’m curious what you think of a full female ticket, a Harris-Whitmer ticket,” Tur said in a on-air conversation with MSNBC host Joe Scarborough.
Harris is working to consolidate Democratic Party support and has yet to announce a running mate after President Biden announced Sunday that he would withdraw from the race and endorsed her as the party’s nominee.
“Just go big on the Democratic side and push back specifically on all that machismo energy that we got out of the RNC,” Tur said. “Hulk Hogan on the stage. Donald Trump yelling ‘fight, fight, fight.’ It’s a very masculine ticket over there.”
“What about going with two women?” the MSNBC host asked.

Democrats can do this if they want, but it won’t help them. Even James Carville has admitted that Democrats are struggling with male voters because their party has too many ‘preachy females.’
James Carville accurately points out the Democrat party’s ‘preachy female’ problem: “Democratic culture has too many preachy females. Too much ‘Don’t eat Hamburgers, don’t watch football, wear a condom’. Man, shit, leave me alone.”
Explosive Move: Nancy Mace Forces Impeachment Vote on Secret Service DEI Director Kim Cheatle Within 48 Hours!
July 23, 2024
Congresswoman Nancy Mace (R-SC) announced the filing of a privileged motion to impeach Kim Cheatle, the Director of the United States Secret Service, on Monday night.
Mace sharply criticized the performance of U.S. Secret Service DEI Director Kim Cheatle during a House Oversight and Accountability Committee hearing.
Mace accused Cheatle of being evasive, dodging critical questions, and displaying a lack of transparency.
The heated exchange between Mace and Cheatle can be viewed here. Below is a transcript of some of the key moments:
Congresswoman Mace:
Director Cheatle, the American people are watching and they’re wondering if there are any questions you can answer honestly today. So Director Cheatle, I have a series of questions very specific questions. I want very specific answers. Most of my questions are going to demand a yes or no answer. Do you understand? I do. OK, my first question. Both sides of the aisle today have asked for your resignation. Would you like to use my 5 minutes to draft your resignation letter, yes or no?
Director Cheatle:
No thank you.
Congresswoman Mace:
This is a colossal failure. It was a failure. Yes or no? Was it a colossal failure is the question, yes or no. I have admitted this is a yes or no series of questions. Was this a colossal failure? Yes or no?
Director Cheatle:
Yes.
Congresswoman Mace:
Was this tragedy preventable? Yes or no.
Director Cheatle:
Yes.
Congresswoman Mace:
Is the Secret Service fully cooperating with our committee?
Director Cheatle:
Yes.
Congresswoman Mace:
OK, you say you’re fully cooperating with this committee, um, on July 15th, this committee sent you a list of demands of information that we wanted has the Secret Service provided this committee a complete list of all law enforcement personnel that were there that day. Have you done that? Have you provided a list to the oversight committee. Yes or no?
Director Cheatle:
I’ll have to get back to you on that.
Congresswoman Mace:
That is a no. Have you provided all audio and video recordings in your possession to this committee as we asked on July 15th, yes or no?
Director Cheatle:
I would have to get back to you.
Congresswoman Mace:
That is a no. You’re full of shit today. You’re just being completely dishonest…
According to the Oversight Committee, here are some key findings:
1. Nine days after an assassination attempt on President Donald Trump’s life, the director of the U.S. Secret Service DOES NOT have a comprehensive timeline of events.
2. She HAS NOT visited the site in Butler, PA.
3. The roof the shooter used was OUTSIDE the perimeter the Secret Service was monitoring.
4. She thinks that the assassination attempt was “the most significant operational failure at the Secret Service in decades,” yet she still believes she is the best person to lead the Secret Service.
5. She was more forthcoming with her TV interview appearances than our hearing and even had her opening statement “leaked” to journalists hours before our committee received a copy.
6. She believes this tragedy, which claimed a life, almost killed President Trump, and injured two others, WAS preventable.
7. She ADMITS to multiple lapses in security under her leadership of the law enforcement agency.
8. She believes there were SUFFICIENT resources given to President Trump on the day he was shot.
9. She COULDNOT answer whether or not the gunman acted alone.
Following the hearing, Mace announced on Monday evening that she had filed a privileged motion to impeach Kim Cheatle. This move will force a vote within the next 48 hours.
The privileged motion Mace filed requires the House of Representatives to hold a vote within 48 hours, ensuring that the matter will be addressed immediately. This procedural maneuver is designed to bypass the usual lengthy process of committee reviews and debates.

Dissident Dem Senator Might Challenge Kamala Coronation, Fight Her for Nomination
July 23, 2024
It was supposed to go so smoothly.
On Sunday afternoon — as good patriotic Americans were doing literally anything else but following political drama out of Washington — President Joe Biden artfully dropped the news that he wasn’t going to be seeking a second term, after all.
A few hours later, he officially endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, seemingly precluding an ugly convention fight.
Except the two biggest names in Democratic politics not named Harris and Biden — former President Barack Obama and former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi — didn’t endorse Harris when they paid tribute to Biden’s decision to withdraw.
And then, hours later, news broke that retiring independent Sen. Joe Manchin of West Virginia was so alarmed by the prospect of a Harris candidacy that he was considering rejoining the Democratic Party and challenging Kamala for the nomination.
So, yeah — this is going just about as smoothly as literally everything else that’s led to this moment.
“It has been the greatest honor of my life to serve as your President,” Biden said in the letter that seemingly was inevitably coming in the slow-motion car wreck that’s unfolded since the debate from hell on June 27.
“And while it has been my intention to seek reelection, I believe it is in the best interest of my party and the country for me to stand down and to focus solely on fulfilling my duties as president for the remainder of my term,” he said.
A half-hour later, Biden officially endorsed Harris to take his place atop the ticket.
“My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best decision I’ve made,” he wrote.
“Today I want to offer my full support and endorsement for Kamala to be the nominee of our party this year. Democrats — it’s time to come together and beat Trump. Let’s do this.”
My fellow Democrats, I have decided not to accept the nomination and to focus all my energies on my duties as President for the remainder of my term. My very first decision as the party nominee in 2020 was to pick Kamala Harris as my Vice President. And it’s been the best… pic.twitter.com/x8DnvuImJV
And while plenty of elected Democrats were ready to “do this” — inasmuch as to not “do this,” for them, would be tantamount to career suicide — both Obama and Pelosi, who are beyond having to care about their ambitions and legacies, declined to do so in their statements.
And then there was, bless his wonderful heart, Joe Manchin.
The retiring West Virginia stalwart was almost the first senator to call on Biden to step aside after the June 27 debate. The independent, who left the Democratic Party in May over its leftward lurch, had to be persuaded not to appear on the Sunday morning political chat shows days later and step aside, The New York Times noted.
Manchin ended up formally calling on Biden to drop out just hours before the president did on Sunday.
“I came to the decision with a heavy heart that I think it’s time to pass the torch to a new generation,” Manchin told host Jake Tapper on CNN’s “State of the Union.”
“I want him to be the president in the last five months of this presidency of his term, to do what he can do is unite our country, to calm down the rhetoric and be able to focus attention to peace in the world,” he said.
However, the quick shift to Harris was not exactly to his liking.
“Sources close to Sen Joe Manchin, independent of WV, say he’s considering re-registering as a Democrat and throwing his hat into the ring,” Tapper reported in a Sunday post on X.

Why would the senator do so? Well, for one, he told Tapper he was “very hopeful” that the nominee would be chosen via an “open process.”
“I think that we have a lot of talent on the bench, a lot of good people,” Manchin told Tapper.
“And I’m partial to governors, because a governor can’t afford to be partial. They can’t afford to be partisan strictly because that pothole or that bridge doesn’t have a D or an R on it.”
He also had his preferences.
“I’ve got two tremendous governors right next door to me, Andy Beshear in Kentucky and Josh Shapiro in Pennsylvania, who are operating with legislatures either evenly split or completely opposite their party affiliation,” Manchin said.
“They haven’t divided their state. They haven’t made you pick a side and demonize the other side.”
According to The Wall Street Journal, Shapiro has already endorsed Harris. Beshear hadn’t made it clear where he stands as of Sunday night, but the Kentucky governor is being mentioned in Harris’ veepstakes, should she become the nominee. Getting into the race for the nomination would torpedo those ambitions.
And so, while Manchin isn’t a governor, he is a moderate and someone with a reputation as an infrastructure guru on Capitol Hill, often convincing Republicans to sign onto projects that, in all fairness, they probably shouldn’t have. (To be fair, he also has done a great deal to hold the line on spending when the Biden White House has tried to get him to go along with larded-up “infrastructure” deals that are little more than trillion-dollar boondoggles.)
Thus, again with no legacy left to prove, he could do what any sane person should: Make things as hard as possible for Kamala Harris to get the nomination.
Granted, Manchin’s role would likely be as a spoiler, not as a serious choice given the party’s lurch to the left.
However, faced with another likely faction at the convention making things difficult for whoever gets nominated to stay grounded in reality — the pro-Hamas activist leftists, who will, if they have their way, be partying like it’s 1968 in 2024 Chicago — a moderate revolt could be enough to sink Harris.
Whether that means they would end up with someone more to Manchin’s liking (or, improbably, Manchin himself) or it would simply push Harris or another progressive nominee further into the arms of the party’s far left remains to be seen.
However, anyone who thinks this drama is over has quite a few things coming, courtesy of one of the biggest flies in the Democrats’ ointment during the Biden administration’s spending sprees.
DEVELOPING: Joe Biden Abruptly Cancels NINE TRIPS, Extends ‘Covid Isolation’ at Delaware Beach House After Dropping Out of 2024 Race
July 23, 2024
Joe Biden abruptly canceled NINE trips and extended his stay at his Rehoboth Beach house after he dropped out of the 2024 race on Sunday.
We still have no proof of life.
Joe Biden dropped out of the 2024 race on Sunday in an announcement on X.
We still haven’t seen a photo or video of Joe Biden. The last time we saw Biden, he was struggling to get into his motorcade last Wednesday after his ‘Covid’ diagnosis.
President Biden has canceled nine trips that were scheduled for the next two weeks after suddenly dropping out of the 2024 race, The Post can reveal.
Biden was scheduled to leave Monday for the West Coast, where he was to make stops in California, Denver, Houston and Austin – but all of those trips have been suddenly canceled, a White House source told The Post.
Biden, who has been isolating with COVID-19, was set to leave his home in Rehoboth, Del., on Monday, but extended his stay until Wednesday after announcing the end of his campaign the night before.
“They started canceling stuff when he announced he wasn’t seeking reelection,” the source said, adding that the trips were a mix of campaign and official presidential stops.
“He was supposed to leave today to start the West Coast trip, but they extended his stay in Rehoboth until the 24th,” the source added.
Joe Biden on Monday *allegedly* called in to his former campaign headquarters before Kamala Harris delivered remarks.
It sounds like a pre-recorded audio of Biden reassuring campaign staffers that he’s still alive and kicking.
Why didn’t Joe Biden appear on video? We haven’t seen Biden since last Wednesday evening. On Sunday Biden announced on X that he is dropping out of the 2024 race and this is supposed to be proof of life?
Biden sounded like absolute hell. Did he have a stroke?
Cheatle Admits She Knows but Refuses to Say How Many Bullet Casings Found on Roof
July 23, 2024
It’s a disgrace Kimberly Cheatle hasn’t been fired.
As director of the Secret Service, she presided over one of the greatest security failures in recent history when a would-be assassin shot and nearly killed former President Donald Trump at a rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on July 13.
During a hearing on Monday, House Oversight and Accountability Committee members raked Cheatle over the coals for her failure and demanded answers to many of the questions that inevitably came out of the incident.
And yet, in a continued display of shockingly incompetent, unaccountable leadership, the director refused to provide any answers.
This was even the case for simple questions to which she knew the answers.
When Michigan Republican Rep. Lisa McClain pressed Cheatle on how many shell casings were found on the roof from which the would-be assassin opened fire, Cheatle refused to answer.
The director said she had met with top FBI officials who informed her of the exact number.
McClain was visibly outraged as Cheatle continued to refuse to answer the question.
“If you’re supposed to be in charge, if the buck stops with you, how come you can’t share the answers? What are you covering up? What are you hiding, my friend?” she said.
These two shots of the congresswoman’s face as she asked the question, and then received her answer, tell you everything you need to know about Cheatle’s incompetence.
