Drag Queens from “RuPaul’s Drag Race” will host a huge Drag Show for Vice President Kamala Harris in Chicago during the Democratic National Convention.  The first ever Drag PAC (Political Action Committee) — created by “Drag Race” alumni — announced that on Wednesday August 21 it will host what’s being called “DNC Drag Night Chicago: A Voter Registration Kiki,” LGBTQ Nation reported. The PAC is hosting the multiple Drag Shows on Wednesday in hopes of increasing voter registration  In a video posted by Libs of TikTok on X, we see a host of Drag Queens saying “Hey Chicago” as they promote the various Drag shows that they claim will be “the biggest night of drag.” One of the stars said, “you thought a city of politicians was too much. Wait till you see a city of Drag Queens.” Drag PAC, a pro-Kamala PAC created by drag queens, is holding a massive drag show in Chicago during the DNC. They are also trying to register voters at the show.

The so-called “anti-LGBTQ” legislation in multiple states targets drag performances that outlaws adult cabaret male or female impersonators from performing “nudity, sexual excitement, sexual conduct, excess violence or sadomasochistic abuse” on public property. Along with the Drag Queen shows, the four-day long convention may at times look more like a typical Hollywood awards show than a political event when this week in the Windy City, as previously reported. Convention organizers have confirmed to CNN that a different celebrity will kick off each of the four nights at the DNC, where the featured star will give remarks and reappear on stage throughout the evening, starting on Monday night with “Scandal” star Tony Goldwyn. Tuesday night, CNN contributor and host of “The View” Ana Navarro will emcee the evening. Wednesday night TV star Mindy Kaling will host followed by actress Kerry Washington on Thursday, who will emcee the evening on the same night that Vice President Kamala Harris will officially accept the Democratic party’s nomination. And they will not be the only ones, as dozens of Hollywood stars flock to Chicago for events and concerts planned around the DNC, as previously reported. John Legend, an outspoken supporter of the Democratic Party and past contenders for the White House, will hold a concert for Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker, the Hollywood Reporter noted.  Late-night host Stephen Colbert is taking his show on the road for the first time with guest appearances that include Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, and Chance the Rapper, among others THR noted. There is even supposed to be a Hollywood premiere-style look at the DNC with a “blue” carpet for the arrival of the bigger-named attendees, Deadline reported.

Wildfires are devasting occurrences often exacerbated by dry conditions in the summer. When a wildfire erupts, stopping it can be difficult, and it spreads quickly. People will risk their lives to try to save their loved ones, their homes, and their most prized possessions. On a broader scale, wildfires can have a deep economic impact if they burn crops necessary for upcoming harvests. Sadly, when this happens, farmers can lose everything. They will do what they can to ensure their crops survive. View this post on Instagram A post shared by ABC News (@abcnews) Incredible video of an Idaho farmer went viral as they desperately tried to save their crops from being destroyed by flames. ABC News shared the shocking footage on Instagram with the caption, “A farmer rushed to save crops by creating a firebreak as wildfires burned in northern Idaho in late July.” Footage Of Wildfire Engulfing Crops Is Heartbreaking The farmer’s vehicle is rushing through the field as they try to create a firebreak to prevent further damage from the flames. So many were heartbroken by what they saw. “Ugh. I can feel his pain and anguish. Praying he and anyone going through this is safe,” someone wrote. This commenter agreed, “All I can think is he’s racing to save a year’s worth of work. Praying their action was fast enough and that their families are safe.” Many shared prayers, hoping the farmer would stay safe while trying to fight the fire. “Blessed be our farmers, protect them and get them help!” “Prayers for him—I can’t imagine watching all that work go up in flames,” someone else agreed. “Thank God.. to our farmers. If it wasn’t for them, we wouldn’t have food on our tables. God bless them all!” Another person prayed. This person reminded us that farmers know their crops best. “They know the land well, I respect the firefighters, but they have been farming all their lives, they know what they are doing.” This story’s featured image is by CI Photos via Shutterstock.

Monday's Final Word

With Night One of the Democratic National Convention in full swing on Monday, CNN’s Chris Wallace flaunted how much he changed for the worst since leaving Fox News. Following the angry and divisive speech from Rep. Robert Garcia (D-CA), Wallace parroted the Democratic Party’s BIG LIE that former President Trump told people to inject bleach into themselves to fight COVID. He also claimed it was “revisionist history” for Republicans to blame President Biden and Democrats for lockdowns. During his speech, Garcia falsely proclaimed: What we needed at that moment was national leadership. But instead, we got Donald Trump. While schools closed and dead bodies filled morgues, Donald Trump downplayed the virus. He told us to inject bleach into our bodies. He peddled conspiracy theories across the country. Following the speech, Wallace quipped: “I guess if this is the contrast part of the evening, because we hadn't heard a lot about Donald Trump for the first hours, and particularly on the issue of COVID.” He then parroted the false line about injecting bleach as if it was true: And they actually ran a video, a series of clips of Donald Trump, some would say his greatest non-hits from 2020 when he was downplaying COVID and talking about injecting bleach into you to try to solve it.   CNN's Chris Wallace parrots the lie that Trump told people to inject bleach into themselves. He then claims "the revisionist history" is Republicans pointing out how Biden and the Democrats were for keeping schools and society shut down when it was hurting kids and everyone. pic.twitter.com/eNNGRrBT7y — Nicholas Fondacaro (@NickFondacaro) August 19, 2024   It was just last month that one of the liberal media’s favorite “fact-checkers,” Snopes published an article admitting that narrative was “false.” “[A]t no point did Trump explicitly tell people they could or should inject bleach into their bodies,” they wrote. But Wallace didn’t care about the facts. In fact, he claimed it was “revisionist history” by Republicans to go after Biden and Democrats for pushing lockdowns despite it hurting kids and everyone else: And you know, it's an interesting question, I think COVID is not a surefire winner for Democrats because there's this kind of revisionist history now that the country was shut down too long and that the Biden when he came in in 2021, continued to shut down businesses and continued to shut down schools. My own feeling is it's a revisionist history because, you know, we know a lot more about COVID now than we did back pre-vaccine in 2020 and 2021. “But there are two sides to this argument, and I think Republicans are happy to engage on the issue the handling of COVID,” he lamented. The transcript is below. Click "expand" to read: CNN’s Erin Burnett OutFront August 19, 2024 7:44:27 p.m. Eastern (…) REP. ROBERT GARCIA (D-CA): What we needed at that moment was national leadership.

(…) 7:48:58 p.m. Eastern CHRIS WALLACE: I guess if this is the contrast part of the evening, because we hadn't heard a lot about Donald Trump for the first hours, and particularly on the issue of COVID.

Protesters breached an outer fence on the first day of the Democratic National Convention, and police responded by arresting four people. Video posted to social media captured the breach and the response of police officers in Chicago, Illinois. One man can be seen carrying a large Palestinian flag. Here's some of the video captured by Blaze Media correspondent Julio Rosas. — (@) Some protesters were able to climb through the breach, but they were detained and arrested by police. Another video on social media showed police arresting a protester while others yell insults at the officers. Capitol police wearing gas masks and riot gear were seen heading into the site of the unrest at about 5 p.m., and they reported that the area was cleared by 6 p.m. The DNC Public Safety Joint Information Center released a statement saying that no one inside was threatened and the inner perimeter was not breached. — (@) Protesters also set up a tent encampment at Union Park as part of a large march planned against the DNC ahead of President Joe Biden's speech. — (@) “Biden, you can’t hide. We charge you with genocide,” chanted some protesters while others yelled, "End the occupation now!" referring to the Israeli war against Hamas in the Gaza Strip. Other protesters didn't want to let Vice President Kamala Harris off the hook for military support given to Israel during Biden's term. “We’re saying to Kamala, she has been complicit in this. People think it’s just Joe Biden, but she is vice president,” said socialist activist Taylor Cook. “So we’re saying, you need to stop if you want our vote.” Axios reported that the protests were "mostly peaceful" and smaller than expected.
