The Federalist: Biden’s DOJ Will Trigger A Crisis If Trump Is Indicted For Jan. 6
President Biden's Justice Department potentially indicting and arresting former President Trump could lead to a political and electoral crisis, endangering the upcoming presidential election and the republic itself. Trump claims to have received a letter informing him of his target status in the federal criminal investigation. This move is seen as an attempt to rig the 2024 election and undermines the legitimacy of future elections. The weaponization of federal law enforcement is generating sympathy for Trump among ordinary American people, revealing a stark double standard of justice in the country. The continued use of federal law enforcement in this way could delegitimize the 2024 election before it even takes place.
American Thinker: Democrats want to ‘soak the rich’ to preserve Social Security
Democrats in Congress have proposed two mega proposals to finance Social Security, raising trillions in new taxes on the rich. However, the changes would erode the program's original concept of benefits earned through contribution. The proposals also rely on future workers contributing more than current workers, burdening future generations with the costs.

American Thinker: The big takeaway from an 'imminent' Trump arrest
Former President Donald Trump has announced that his arrest is imminent, calling it a "witch hunt." This ongoing investigation raises concerns about the impartiality of our justice system and the weaponization of law enforcement for political purposes.

Fox News: No-Labels' Joe Lieberman suggests spring-2024 decision for third-party bid amid 'distaste' for Biden, Trump
Former Connecticut Senator Joseph Lieberman, founder of No Labels, is considering running a third-party candidate in response to mass dissatisfaction with the two established parties. Lieberman believes that supporting a bipartisan policy agenda and running a third ticket could encourage the parties to work towards the center and solve the country's problems. However, No Labels has faced media scrutiny, and its potential impact on the 2024 election remains uncertain.
Washington Free Beacon: State Pension Funds Invest Millions in Blacklisted Chinese Companies
New York and California public employee retirement funds invest millions of taxpayer dollars in Chinese companies involved in military technology development and the surveillance of Uyghur Muslims. Despite their commitments to ethical investing and promoting human rights, these funds disregard their own values and contribute to the Chinese military-industrial complex. Additionally, the funds also invest in companies blacklisted for attempting to steal US military technology and strengthen ties between China and Iran. This highlights the intertwining of American personal finances with China's military and the failure of the federal government to address this issue.

Spectator USA: What would Trump’s second-term foreign policy look like?
Former President Donald Trump is facing legal trouble with a total of seventy-one criminal charges in two separate investigations. Despite this, he remains a top contender for the presidency. If elected, Trump's foreign policy would continue to be focused on nationalism and skepticism towards alliances, potentially leading to strained relationships with allies like Germany, NATO, South Korea, and Japan. In addition, his approach to conflicts in Ukraine and the Middle East would likely be unpredictable, and his trade war with China would intensify.
National Review: The Central Folly of Biden’s Foreign Policy
The Biden administration's foreign policy focuses on preventing escalation with China, Russia, and Iran, rather than pursuing victory. The administration is prioritizing avoiding conflict and maintaining stability, even if it means compromising U.S. interests and allowing adversaries to escalate their actions. This approach has allowed China to build up its nuclear weapons, Russia to escalate the war in Ukraine, and Iran to advance its nuclear program and attack U.S. forces. The administration's fear of escalating tensions has put the United States at a disadvantage and allowed adversaries to take advantage.

The Epoch Times: Fall Gardens and Tomato Anthracnose
A fall vegetable garden is easier to take care of as there is cooler weather and fewer weeds. Cool-season crops can be planted from seeds and can be harvested even after a frost. In the Deep South or Southwest, fall is the time to grow summer crops like tomatoes.
Tomatoes with circular flat spots may have a fungal disease called anthracnose. The disease develops from spores splashed onto the plant in warm weather. Infected fruit should be pruned off and precautions taken to reduce splashing. Use resistant tomato varieties and plant tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants in different areas of the garden next year.

National Review: Kamala Harris’s Revealing Malthusian Malapropism
Vice President Kamala Harris suggested that reducing population would help solve global warming, but the White House later claimed she meant to say "reduce pollution." The belief that reducing human population would benefit the planet is common among environmentalists, despite the fact that doomsday predictions about overpopulation have consistently failed to come true. Some even support draconian population control measures, such as forced sterilizations, which have been implemented in countries like China and India.
