Twice-failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton claimed this week that Vice President Kamala Harris faced a “double standard” from voters who wanted her to explain her policy positions. Clinton made the remarks during an interview with Kara Swisher on the “On with Kara Swisher” podcast only a couple of weeks after Harris finally released her policy platform after weeks of avoiding talking to the media. Clinton suggested that Harris, who is now the Democratic Party’s presidential nominee, does not owe it to the voters or the media to explain her positions. “She does not have to do it, Kara. I’m going to just cut to the chase,” Clinton said. “In fact, she’s put out policies on her campaign website. Anybody who’s truly interested can go and read about them. She referenced policies.” “She actually doesn’t just have policies and concepts. She has plans about what to do,” Clinton claimed, even though Harris’ policy platform lacks specific detail on a wide range of issues. “I think it’s, um, you know, it’s a double standard and it’s a double standard that is partly because they are still getting to know her.” Am I Racist?

The Islamic Republic of Iran hacked former President Donald Trump’s campaign and turned over the stolen materials to the Biden-Harris campaign, federal officials said in a statement. Federal officials from ODNI, FBI, and CISA said in a joint statement that Iranian hackers sent the stolen materials to then-Biden-Harris campaign officials in June and July. Information that the hackers sent to the then-Biden-Harris campaign “contained an excerpt taken from stolen, non-public material from former President Trump’s campaign as text in the emails.” Although President Joe Biden dropped out of the presidential race in mid-July after getting crushed by Trump during the presidential debate, many on his campaign were retained by Harris when the campaign was given to her. Am I Racist? Is In Theaters NOW — Get Your Tickets Here! The federal officials claimed that there was “currently no information indicating” Biden-Harris officials replied to the emails. The statement claimed that Iran’s goal was to “stoke discord and undermine confidence in our electoral process,” which is contradicted in part by numerous statements that federal officials have made in recent months about how Iran is specifically trying to stop Trump. National security officials have warned that Iran is trying to sabotage Trump’s campaign, Iran hacked Trump’s campaign and gave the information to news organizations, and Iran has attempted to assassinate Trump.

On the latest episode of “The Tony Kinnett Cast,” we dive into the details on the neck-and-neck race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump as the swing states of Michigan, Pennsylvania, Wisconsin, Nevada, Arizona, Georgia, and (almost) North Carolina are hit with a tsunami of promises from the candidates. Harris goes after Hispanic voters in what might be the most unique strategy seen yet in American politics. Does a fifth accent really impress potential voters, and will the trend of Hispanic voters shifting red continue? Why are Americans so apathetic toward the U.S. Constitution, and what could drive them back to our founding documents? Lathan Watts, vice president of public affairs for Alliance Defending Freedom, stops by to tackle a topic troubling the hearts and minds of this battered republic’s citizens for decades. It’s time to dig out the Federalist Papers and dust off that old pocket Constitution, because we have work to do. Israeli intelligence continues to light up the pockets of Hezbollah terrorists as conspiracy theorists and foreign agents shout concerns over a “new age” of terrorism. Is every smartphone a bomb waiting to explode? What roles do foreign intelligence services have in offensive operations and what culpability do they share with their national governments? Finally, we hit the entertainment industry for a few surprising updates about what Disney’s animators were reportedly told about their sequel to “Inside Out.” Are we finally out of the tunnel of forced political writing? No, but the light at the end of this abyss could at last be in sight.

DAILY CALLER NEWS FOUNDATION—ABC News’ senior White House correspondent Selina Wang on Tuesday said Vice President Kamala Harris often did not offer detailed responses during her National Association of Black Journalists interview. Harris spoke with NABJ member journalists in Philadelphia about the Israel-Hamas war, the economy, and other issues during the roughly 45-minute interview. Wang noted Harris’ answers on both the Gaza war and Americans’ well-being compared to four years ago lacked “specific” details. “She was pressed about how her policy towards Israel and Gaza might be different than that of President [Joe] Biden’s and she did not directly answer the question or offer any policy specifics, but she repeatedly said that we need to get a deal done,” Wang told host Kyra Phillips. “Since Harris announced her candidacy, she’s been very careful, Kyra, to not have too much daylight between her views and that of President Biden. So everything she said on foreign policy very much tracks with President Biden’s views,” Wang added. “Now, there were multiple times, though, during this interview where Vice President Harris did not offer a specific answer. Instead, she pivoted and returned to her talking points that she wanted to hit, particular[ly] on a question about whether or not Americans are better off today than they were four years ago.” Harris answered the question by asserting she and Biden inherited “a mess” from former President Donald Trump, noting the dismal economic circumstances related to the COVID-19 pandemic. She then asserted she and Biden “have created over 16 million new jobs,” brought down the black unemployment rate, invested in small businesses, and reduced medical costs. MSNBC host Katy Tur fact-checked that Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., in April claimed that job losses under Trump were the worst out of all presidents without mentioning the pandemic. The poverty rate reached an all-time low and the unemployment rate reached a 50-year low during the former president’s term before the pandemic in 2020, according to a Trump White House press release. Harris acknowledged prices are “still too high” and detailed her economic plans, including tax credits for housing developers and down payment assistance for homebuyers. Prices have surged over 20% since Biden and Harris took office in January 2021. Undecided swing-state voters in a Monday focus group said the way Harris answers questions on the campaign trail is “insulting” to them. The vice president faced criticism for her Friday interview with 6ABC Philadelphia’s Action News, where she rambled about her middle-class upbringing when anchor Brian Taff asked her what “specific” strategies she intends to implement to improve affordability for Americans. Harris also avoided directly answering a question regarding her many policy flip-flops during the Sept. 10 presidential debate, opting to discuss her “middle-class” upbringing while explaining how her “values have not changed” despite her policy changes. Democratic strategist James Carville during a Thursday podcast seemed to suggest Harris field a blend of “planted” and unrehearsed queries during public speaking engagements to appear more impressive, without making it “evident” she already knew some of the questions.

Want to know how to keep your barn animals cool for the summer? If you want to be prepared for the upcoming hot summer months, let these tips be your guide. Keeping Your Barn Animals Cool for the Summer | Homesteading Tips For Summer Preparedness Just like with people, extreme heat during summer months can trigger heat stress that can be devastating to animals. Several animals are more sensitive to heat than others, however, all of them need some care because animals could also die from overheating just like people can. Check the tips below for some natural ways that you can keep your barn animals cool. 1. Provide lots of water to protect animals from heat The first vital step in protecting your animals from heat is to provide them with lots of clean water. Just like people, animals sweat and need to replace the loss of water to prevent dehydration. Keep in mind that some livestock, such as cows and horses, needs between 6 to 20 gallons of water per day! In summer, algae tend to grow in water buckets and troughs but this type won't hurt most animals, except to the few blue-green varieties that may be the result of water contaminated by fertilizer and can be toxic to your animals. Stagnant water is a breeding ground for mosquitos and bacteria that is harmful to your animals. You want to keep your barn animals cool but not at the expense of their hygiene. Clean your water buckets and troughs at least every couple of days. Water can be precious in hard times and to preserve it wait until your buckets and troughs are empty before you clean it. 2. Ensure that shelters are well-ventilated to protect animals from heat If you choose to let your animals out at night so that they can take advantage for the cooler air, that would perfect, however, if thieves is a problem in your area, that may not be a good idea. To ensure that there's plenty of ventilation in your barn keep the doors at either end of the barn open and keep the outside half-doors to the stalls open so that the air can get through. 3. Provide Access to Shade at All Times image source Shade is a perfect way to keep your animals cool. If you have a lot of trees that can provide sufficient shade for all your animals, that's great. If not, then you need to build them a shelter that is positioned in such way that it's shaded all day. 4. Create a mud hole for your Pigs Pigs can't sweat. So make sure they have plenty of shade and creating a mud hole for them would be a great way to keep them from overheating in the summertime, aside from providing them lots of water.

How to keep Chickens cool image source Like dogs and cats, chickens pant to cool themselves. Provide them with lots of cold water. You can add ice to the water or place a bottle or gallon jug of frozen water in the water bucket. Another great way is to feed them with watermelon rinds or add frozen fruits and veggies to their water to keep it cool. Just like any other livestock, chickens need electrolytes in addition to water to keep everything balanced. You can add Gatorade or Pedialyte to their water or make your own mix of 1/2 teaspoon salt substitute, 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon table salt, 1 tablespoon sugar mix to a 1 gallon of water. Take note that there's is no need to give this mixture to a chicken that doesn't show signs of heat stress, though it does not hurt to provide it once a week or so. 6. Sheer sheep and other furry animals in the spring Some wool actually helps keep a sheep and other wool producers cool. That is why many farmers sheer them in the spring so that by summer they have enough wool to keep cool and by winter, their coats are thick enough to keep them warm. This also applies to dogs that have long or thick coats. Shave them in order to help them stay cool and keep them out of the sun and leave a bit of hair on them to protect their skin from sunburn. 7. Suppress them from hot surfaces Asphalt, concrete, sand and even wood can get terribly hot and may burn your pet's body and paws. Suppress them from lying on hot surfaces because it can quickly raise their body temperature and put them at risk for heat stroke. Once your dog shows signs of heat stroke such as thick sticky saliva, rapid panting, dizziness, weakness, vomiting, a bright red tongue, and extra red or pale gums, bathe them with room temperature water and allow him to dry naturally while keeping him out of the heat. 8. Electrolytes Like people, in addition to water animals need salt and other minerals to stay hydrated and keep their bodies functioning. You can buy salt blocks and mineral blocks from your local feed and hardware stores and put them in the pasture or in each individual feed bucket. Giving them free access to both is the best option because they can use it as their bodies crave for it. It is necessary to add salt block so that your animals can get salt that they need without the extra minerals. Summer heat is dangerous to our pets and livestock as it is to us and many of the same common rules and principles apply. If you're in a situation where losing your animals may mean starving or being stranded, it's vital to protect your animals from heat. Need more tips on how to keep your animals cool from the summer?
