MSNBC's Joe Scarborough & Mika Brzezinski went to Mar-a-Lago the other day to "Kiss the Ring" of Donald Trump, and spent a reported 90 minutes with the President-Elect. Question: What's it like spending 90 minutes with a "fascist," a "thug" and a man who is "utterly despicable"? Did they bring along a food taster? As for why they made the trek: "We realized it's time to do something different. That starts with not only talking about Donald Trump, but also talking with him," said Brzezinski. Well, lets Roll some tape.

Call them Manhattan's vanishing voters. Citywide, 573,618 fewer New York City voters cast their ballots for Kamala Harris than they did for Joe Biden in 2020. Donald Trump gained 94,611 voters, but most just sat out the election. This potential voting bloc of Democrats – fed up with left-wing extremism – could, in fact, help elect a law-and-order Manhattan District Attorney to replace the controversial Alvin Bragg, the soft-on crime lefty largely responsible for the mayhem on New York City's streets.

Props to President Donald Trump for nominating combat arms officer Pete Hegseth, a leader who embodies the motto of the Army Infantry School – “Follow me!” While the nomination stunned me at first, upon further reflection, its genius became clear. Trump isn’t bringing Hegseth, a decorated Infantry major, into the Pentagon to don green eye shades and manage every element of the military behemoth. He's hired Hegseth to channel George Patton and apply combat arms leadership and attitude.

Donald Trump will likely have to rely on drones, missiles, and air strikes – and not on major engagements – to deter our nation's enemies from aggression. He'll also have to the legion this are his domestic critics from claiming he has turned into some kind of "globalist interventionist." He is not, but from time to time such deterrence entails warning the reckless and adventurous around the globe that our allies have no better friend than the United State of America – and our adversaries have no worse an enemy.

President-elect Trump is rapidly assembling a team around him that will not only be fiercely loyal, but has demonstrated real-world experience and will push the “Trump Agenda” to the max. While all his picks have been exceptional, I want to focus on the two that have caused some on the far left to completely melt down as they speed-dial their therapists – and tearfully hug their emotional support rats. I'm talking about Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense, and Cong. Matt Gaetz for Attorney General.

Based on the cheaters who have been caught and actually prosecuted around the country since 2020, it’s become clear they fit a pattern. Much of the cheating is organized by progressive "advocacy" nonprofits. Former Maricopa County (Phoenix) Elections worker, and Liberal Activist Walter Ringfield – who was caught on video stealing a key FOB earlier this year that would have reprogrammed all 140 County voting machine tabulators on Election Day – is a classic example. So what made the difference this year?

When Americans stand alone in their Polling Booths at schools, gyms, and community centers across the country, we exercise our God-Given Right to choose the men and women who will represent us in government – and lead our nation. Every American citizen has the incredible duty and responsibility of voting in elections, and it must not be taken for granted. As then-Gov. Ronald Reagan said in his 1st Inaugural Address in 1967, "It is not ours by inheritance, it must be fought for and defended by each generation.”

This presidential race was not unpredictable – as the once again discredited polls swore. Republicans had made massive gains in Voter Registration after 2020 when Donald Trump lost by only a few 1,000 strategically placed votes in a handful of Swing States. It was then that Republicans began to master non-Election Day balloting themselves – first engineered by Democrats under the pretext of COVID-19. This year the GOP not only exceeded their early/mail-in voting goals, but by Election Day, they often vastly outpaced Democrats.

I hope the Democrats are miserable now. But then again, they had a miserable candidate – far and away the most incompetent person to ever be a candidate for President of the United States.  And her running mate, he was even more miserable than she was. Looking at the results of this election, Americans have come to realize the Democrat Party is just a miserable party, full of miserable people, with a miserable ideology, who did a miserable job of running the country. It made all of us miserable for four years.  

Without the Electoral College, eight to 10 large states – and even just a handful of the nation's largest cities, frankly – would determine the election. The Electoral College assigns power to every state – and safeguards the primacy of the states. It is critical to our system of federalism. America is unique in the world in our system of checks and balances, decentralized government power, and protection of the rights of the minority. Did you know that California has a larger population than nine small states – combined?

This is it. It’s time. We’ve been waiting four years for this chance to take back our country, and tomorrow it happens. It goes without saying that we have to go all out to win this. If you can vote early and have not done so, do it today. Now. Don’t wait till tomorrow. Get it done. If you can only vote tomorrow, go vote early. Get it done, get it out of the way. Who knows what surprises lurk in the next few hours? Fire, flood, plague of frogs – nothing is off the table. We are in the Land of the Black Swans. 

In the last two weeks, Vice President Kamala Harris has been trying to revive her stagnant campaign by smearing Trump as being Hitlerian and a fascist. She claims Trump is planning to put his enemies in encampments. If Harris refers to Trump's supposed fascist policies during his prior four-year tenure, there is no such evidence. Nonetheless, the once "joyful" Harris is ending her campaign by trafficking in lies and smears reminiscent of the Joe McCarthy era.

From my time as Harris County Treasurer, to Houston City Council Member, I’ve heard from and seen in action just how important it is to ensure public funds are being used wisely – and that we generate additional revenue to support our communities where we can. States have the right to choose on this matter, as ruled on by the Supreme Court, and nearly 40 states have already legalized it.

Democrats hate you. They really do. They’ll tell you, though only by accident. The rest of the time they pretend to care, pretend they’re interested in helping you achieve your goals. They don’t mean it, they hate you. You’re nothing but a bitter, garbage person clinging to your guns and Bible, a deplorable, irredeemable case for supporting abortion in the 400th month. They may think you are garbage, but you have less than one week before you have a chance to take out the trash.

Philadelphia Dist. Attorney Larry Krasner on Monday filed a lawsuit against Elon Musk – now one of Donald Trump's most well-know supporters – accusing him of "running an illegal lottery in Philadelphia (as well as throughout Pennsylvania)." The lawsuit underscores the fears that Musk’s activism has generated among Democrats, liberals, various "government officials." Yet at a rally in Lancaster, PA., Musk doubled down on his commitment to Free Speech & Constitutional Values by announcing the 8th winner of his $1 million prizes.

Well… it takes a real special kind of person to not understand that energy is the basis of the U.S. Economy – of not only Texas, but the entire United States. Everything from food to clothes and housing construction materials count on energy to be produced – and when you attack fossil fuels, the core of all energy production, and drive up costs like you didn’t know that would happen, you're not just attacking the pocket books of every American and their families, she and the socialist elites could control the basic means of production – and capitalism dies.

October hasn't been a good month for Kamala Harris – or Democrats. ​​​The RealClearPolitics average, which only includes polls taken after Oct. 9th, put Harris' dwindling lead last week at 0.8%. After September's polls in the 7 Swing States showed Harris ahead in four of them – mid-October's polls showed her leading in just one, with Trump ahead in four and tied in two. Now Trump's ahead in all seven. If Harris holds a popular vote lead of less than 2%, Nate Silver's well-respected Poll Aggregation Model estimates she has only a 16% chance of winning.

Late-night comedian Stephen Colbert asked Kamala Harris: "Polling shows a lot of people, especially independent voters, really want this to be a change election. And they tend to break for you when thinking about change. You're a member of the present administration – so under a Harris administration, what would the major changes be, and what would stay the same?" Responded Harris: "Sure. Well, I mean, I'm obviously not Joe Biden." According to a recent Marquette University poll, 79% of "Likely Voters" think the country is on the "wrong track."

If there was ever any real value to the “momentum” or "joy" or “vibes” that Kamala Harris's Campaign claimed, it's quickly becoming an express elevator to hell. The latest “bad vibes” seen in recent polls have given sudden rise to a growing chorus of terrified Democrat voices — particularly in Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona & Georgia. Will this turn out to be a grandly ironic combination of premature panic or temporary confidence for Harris and Trump? The initial rush of July and August is proving incapable of even the slightest hint of electoral success.

In Pennsylvania, Republicans have a far greater ballot-chasing effort going. In Arizona last week, MSNBC reporter Vaughan Hillyard admitted his team couldn't find a single voter in line to cast Early Ballots who admitted voting for Kamala Harris. Despite numbers revealing how well Republicans are doing in some of the Battleground States – i.e., the numbers posted at  NBC, which are obtained from Democrat-affiliated data company TargetSmart — in Arizona, Georgia & Nevada the numbers are even more depressing for Democrats.
