Kendi Attacks Barrett
Kendi took to Twitter to respond to a purported photo of Barrett and her two adopted children from Haiti. However, the photo was not actually of Barrett. Here’s what Kendi had to say:
Some White colonizers “adopted” Black children. They “civilized” these “savage” children in the “superior” ways of White people, while using them as props in their lifelong pictures of denial, while cutting the biological parents of these children out of the picture of humanity. And whether this is Barrett or not is not the point. It is a belief too many White people have: if they have or adopt a child of color, then they can’t be racist. I’m challenging the idea that White parents of kids of color are inherently “not racist” and the bots completely change what I’m saying to “White parents of kids of color are inherently racist.” These live and fake bots are good at their propaganda. Let’s not argue with them.

A fourth person added, “Or two orphaned Haitian children are adopted by a white family who love these children as if they are their own and are loved by aunts, uncles, grandparents and cousins they otherwise would never have known.”
President Donald Trump officially nominated Barrett to the Supreme Court on Saturday to fill the seat that was left vacant after the death of Ruth Bader Ginsburg last week.

President Donald Trump ’ s tax returns have liberals whining , but they are silent on Joe Biden dodging hundreds of thousands in payroll taxes .

Editor’s Note: This article was updated to include quotes from the New York Times report about President Trump’s tax payments in 2016 and 2017.
President Donald Trump’s tax returns have liberals whining, but they are silent on Joe Biden dodging hundreds of thousands in payroll taxes.
Only $750 In Taxes? Not True
The New York Times came out with a total nothingburger story on Monday, with multiple media outlets reporting that the President had only “paid $750” in federal income taxes in 2016 and 2017.
Suggesting Trump only “paid $750” in taxes those years is disproven by the New York Times themselves in their story as as they wrote the President still paid millions in taxes.
Each time, he requested an extension to file his 1040; and each time, he made the required payment to the I.R.S. for income taxes he might owe — $1 million for 2016 and $4.2 million for 2017.
So, in fact, Trump paid $5.2 million to the IRS between 2016 and 2017.
While the NYT notes business investment credits brought his actual tax liability down to $750 for those years, they appear to say that Trump has even given the federal government a loan, writing that “most” of the $5.2 million was rolled forward to cover potential taxes in the future:
But virtually all of that liability was washed away when he eventually filed, and most of the payments were rolled forward to cover potential taxes in future years.
But it was still picked up upon by liberals all over Twitter, who assumed the President was defrauding the American people.
In 2016 & ‘17, I paid thousands of dollars a year in taxes *as a bartender.* Trump paid $750. He contributed less to funding our communities than waitresses & undocumented immigrants. Donald Trump has never cared for our country more than he cares for himself. A walking scam. https://t.co/VZChbp8htu — Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (@AOC) September 28, 2020

“I paid many millions of dollars in taxes but was entitled, like everyone else, to depreciation and tax credits,” the President tweeted.
He also noted that the report shows he gave up his “yearly $400,000 plus presidential salary!”

While this has taken up the attention of liberals across the country, they are very quiet on the issue of their presidential candidate.
According to the Wall Street Journal, Joe Biden used a series of tax loopholes to avoid paying hundreds of thousands of dollars in payroll taxes.
Chris Jacobs of the Wall Street Journal detailed in August that the Bidens set up what is known as an “S-Corporation” to skirt around paying more than half a million dollars in payroll taxes.
“According to their tax returns, in 2017 and 2018 the Bidens and his wife Jill avoided payroll taxes on nearly $13.3 million in income from book royalties and speaking fees,” Jacobs wrote.
“They did so by classifying the income as S-corporation profits rather than taxable wages.”

Editors Note: This article was updated to include relevant information about the Minnesota Election Law at the heart of Project Veritas’ ballot harvesting investigation.
President Trump is calling for a “review” of Rep. Ilhan Omar following reports of alleged “ballot harvesting” in the Minnesota congresswoman’s district.
The New York Post reports that Project Veritas, the controversial undercover video production company, claims to have uncovered a scheme in which hundreds of ballots are being illegally harvested from elderly Somali immigrants.
“Numbers don’t lie,” says one of the individuals captured on video as he displays a large number of envelopes on his car’s dashboard.
He asserts that they are for Minneapolis City Council member Jamal Osman.
“You can see my car is full. All these here are absentee ballots … Look, all these are for Jamal Osman,” he continues.
The Post states under Minnesota law, no individual can be the “designated agent” for greater than three absentee voters.
However, skeptics of the video have pointed out that the law was enjoined by a District Court on April 29 until its eventual reinstatement by the State Supreme Court on September 4.
The video has not been verified and the claims made within yet to be proven.
The director of the FBI is saying there’s no voter fraud. The journalists all desperately try to attack @Project_Veritas. The entire system is broken.

President Trump shared several stories about the alleged ‘ballot harvesting’ scheme on Twitter.

He demanded to know, “If not, why not?”

Two people in the Project Veritas investigation claim one of the ballot harvesters is associated with Omar.
“It’s an open secret,” whistleblower Omar Jamal alleged.
“She will do anything that she can do to get elected and she has hundreds of people on the streets doing that.”
Another person identified only as a ‘former political worker’ accuses Omar’s campaign deputy district director, Ali (Isse) Gainey, of having “perfected this system” of harvesting ballots from the elderly.
Neither of these individuals’ claims has been substantiated.

Controversy Follows Omar
President Trump’s reference to Omar’s “many misdeeds” could be driven by several other controversies that have surrounded the Congresswoman.
Federal Election Commission (FEC) records have shown that Omar’s campaign committee has paid nearly $1 million to her husband’s consulting firm since they were married.
Omar announced that she and Tim Mynett had married earlier this year, after spending months initially denying accusations from his former wife and the media that the two were having an affair.

Jeremy Slevin, Senior Communications Director for Omar, denied the Project Veritas story.
“The amount of truth to this story is equal to the amount Donald Trump paid in taxes of ten out of the last fifteen years: zero,” Slevin suggested.
“And amplifying a coordinated right-wing campaign to delegitimize a free and fair election this fall undermines our democracy.”

Their failure to challenge Biden has only accelerated since he locked up the nomination. In fact, the liberal press has been treating Biden like a precious flower during interviews and press conferences, and I use the term “press conferences” reluctantly.

Given his experience, the Democrat nominee reflexively knows how to blunt attacks on the debate stage, and his allies in the media will be sure to spin or downplay whatever missteps he may make.

For decades , the entertainer Bette Midler was best known for her singing and acting abilities .

Many still remember Amy Coney Barrett’s Senate confirmation hearings when she was nominated for the 7th Court of Appeals.
Then, California Senator Dianne Feinstein famously quipped, “And I think in your case, professor, when you read your speeches, the conclusion one draws is that the dogma lives loudly within you. And that’s of concern.”
The Senator made that comment over concerns that Barrett would be insufficiently supportive of abortion.

President Trump also said Catholic bishops should come out against any religious attacks on Barrett.

Many Catholics are no doubt thrilled, including church leadership.

Colorado Secretary of State Jena Griswold is clarifying a situation in which her office reportedly sent out voter registration postcards which were received by some non-citizens or dead individuals .

“ This @ @ @ @ @ @ @ goes to people who are potentially eligible but unregistered , ” she said in an interview with the network , “ and , you know , the mailings aren ’ t always 100 % correct.
