Kamala Ditches Al Smith Dinner – Another Unforced Error

Rant or Rave Wednesday

The Alfred E. Smith Dinner is an annual event that raises money for organizations involved in assisting New York’s neediest children. The Catholic charity dinner has taken place since 1946 and since 1960, has featured the presidential nominees from both parties every election year. It is a time when opposing campaigns can come together to take good-natured jabs at each other in an open setting. This election cycle, VP Harris opted not to attend – another huge mistake and loss for the flailing campaign.

During the dinner, prominent individuals look forward to the highlight of the night – hearing the parties’ nominees roast each other. It provides an opportunity of levity for candidates during a campaign season. We all remember the contentious 2016 campaign between President Trump and Hilary Clinton. At that dinner, President Trump made a joke about pardoning Hilary Clinton. It was quite funny and even elicited a hearty laugh from Secretary Clinton. For those of us who found Clinton to be phony or unlikeable, that moment humanized her. And that is the point of the Al Smith dinner from the political perspective – to humanize the candidates and see a softer side of them. [Read more…] about Kamala Ditches Al Smith Dinner

J.D. Vance – The Epitome of the American Dream

Vice Presidential Candidate J.D. Vance – The Epitome of the American Dream

From a young age, the odds were stacked against J.D. Vance. This stands in sharp contrast to the propaganda Americans are incessantly subjected to – that all white men are oppressors and are privileged. Vance’s story, which mirrors millions of others who are victims of the socio-economic status they are born into, proves otherwise. J.D. Vance was born in the lower middle-class town of Middletown, Ohio, and certainly did not enjoy any privilege. This week is a rave about the kind of person who embodies the strength and values The United States stands for.

Like many towns in Appalachia, Middletown was riddled with poverty and drug addiction. Vance grew up without his father in the home and his mother, like so many in the region, became addicted to prescription painkillers and heroin. Fortunately, she is now in recovery and has been sober for years. However, because of all the turmoil during his childhood, he started to do poorly in school and became withdrawn.

Americans Last? Hurricane Helene Victims Suffer

Americans Last? Hurricane Helene Victims Suffer While U.S. Gives Foreigners Billions

Nearly two weeks ago, Hurricane Helene slammed the Western Coast of Florida and swept through several states, including Georgia, South Carolina, North Carolina, and Tennessee. Initially classified as a category 4, the hurricane was labeled a tropical storm, as it persisted into the northern bound states. Hurricanes are based on a 1 to 5 rating scale with 5 being the worst; however, this scale only accounts for the storm’s wind speed. Much of the carnage and damage from hurricanes results from flooding either from a storm surge, incessant rain, or both.

The widespread devastation of Helene – obliterating multiple communities and leaving death and ruin in its path has largely resulted from flooding. With the death toll rising above 230, Helene has become the deadliest hurricane to hit the U.S. since Hurricane Katrina nearly 20 years ago. The videos, images, and stories of fatalities and destruction are utterly heart-wrenching. There are hundreds of individuals still missing, hundreds of thousands of citizens without power, and with network outages pervasive in the region, lack of communication capabilities is making rescue and relief efforts far more difficult.
