Poll: Republicans Maintain 3-Point Lead on Generic Congressional Ballot
A generic Republican candidate maintains a three-point lead over a generic Democrat, the same lead as the previous week, a Rasmussen Reports poll released Friday states. As Republicans look to retake control of Congress in the 2022 midterm elections — only 88 days away — the most recent Rasmussen Reports survey showed that 46 percent of likely U.S. voters would elect a Republican, compared to the 43 percent who said they would vote for the Democrat, giving the GOP the same three-point lead as the previous week. Republicans, therefore, only have a three-point lead, which is the same as last week’s Rasmussen Reports poll but down from the ten-point lead in July. Three percent said they would vote for another candidate, and the other eight percent said they were unsure. Republicans’ continued three-point advantage shows their lead has stopped falling in the polls. However, while fewer than four months remain until the election, there is still time for the generic ballot to move … [Read more...] about Poll: Republicans Maintain 3-Point Lead on Generic Congressional Ballot

Landlord forced tenant to sign sex contract with bizarre clauses: Lawsuit
A Las Vegas landlord forced a homeless mother of five to sign a sex contract in exchange for housing, according to a lawsuit being fought in federal court. Landlord Allan Rothstein preyed on the family's desperation, according to court documents . In 2018, mom Candy Torres and her children were living week to week without reliable shelter in Las Vegas, Nevada. They were finally approved for a housing voucher through Section 8, a federal program that funds local public housing authorities to help low-income families rent from private landlords. "One of the provisions of Section 8 is that once you're approved, you have to find a residence that will be covered by the program within about 60 days of when you're approved," said housing lawyer Bruce Flammey to KTNV-TV, analyzing Torres's case for the local station. As a result, the mom might have seen no option but to sign Rothstein's required forms. One of these had the title, "Direct Consent for Sexual Intercourse and or Fellatio … [Read more...] about Landlord forced tenant to sign sex contract with bizarre clauses: Lawsuit
California governor nominates first Latina as state’s Supreme Court chief justice
SACRAMENTO, Calif. (AP) — California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Wednesday nominated Patricia Guerrero to be the state’s next chief justice, picking the daughter of Mexican immigrants to lead the nation’s largest judicial system. Guerrero, 50, would replace Chief Justice Tani Cantil-Sakauye, who will step down once her term ends in January. Guerrero made history earlier this year when she was the first Latina confirmed to the California Supreme Court. Now she’s poised to do it again as the first Latina to lead the state’s sprawling court system that includes about 2,175 judges across 58 trial courts and 105 justices on the Courts of Appeal. “Justice Guerrero has established herself as a widely respected jurist with a formidable intellect and command of the law and deep commitment to equal justice and public service,” Newsom said in a news release announcing Guerrero’s nomination.

China Demands ‘One Country, Two Systems’ Hong Kong Policy in Taiwan
China’s “Taiwan Affairs Office” declared on Thursday that the solution to tensions between the two countries is the colonization of Taiwan through “One Country, Two Systems,” the policy Beijing promised to abide by in Hong Kong but flagrantly crushed in response to pro-democracy protests in 2019. The Chinese Communist Party has engaged in a ceaseless campaign of complaints, military belligerence, and violent threats since Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) spent 19 hours in Taipei last week, meeting with Taiwanese President Tsai Ing-wen, senior Taiwanese lawmakers, and human rights leaders. Pelosi and her small Congressional delegation insisted that their presence in the country was not an attempt to change the “status quo” in which the United States does not formally recognize Taiwanese sovereignty, but Beijing has branded her visit a dangerous threat to China’s territorial integrity. Taiwan is a sovereign country off the coast of China, with independent government, … [Read more...] about China Demands ‘One Country, Two Systems’ Hong Kong Policy in Taiwan
Gulf Cartel Checks Buses in Mexican Border City for Migrants to Smuggle
The Gulf Cartel continues to implement a strategy where they board passenger buses to search for migrants traveling north to the border city of Reynosa. The interceptions take place on the outskirts of the city or at the bus station. The migrants trying to get to Texas are forced to go to cartel stash houses. Breitbart Texas spoke with Miranda Villanueva, a woman from Mexico who recently traveled by bus from Central Mexico to Reynosa. According to Villanueva, as the bus arrived at the bus station, three men began asking the passengers where they were from and demanded identification. Those who did not have ID or travel documents were singled out and told to go with the men. “They got on the bus and asked us to identify ourselves,” Villanueva said. “I heard them say that whoever had the [cartel] codes to put their hands up. More than one person raised their hands.” The tactic is similar to another bus raid caught on tape in 2016 . In that case, the gunmen were intercepting … [Read more...] about Gulf Cartel Checks Buses in Mexican Border City for Migrants to Smuggle
