During the hearing, Secret Service Chief Kim Cheatle would not answer most questions nine days after the attempted assassination of Donald Trump. The hearing is very frustrating. Democrats are trying to make it about guns. Democrat-led agencies can’t find who had the cocaine in the White House or who leaked the Supreme Court decision on […] The post Disgraced Chief Cheatle’s Hearing, a Typical Dem Cover-Up appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.

With the battleground state of Pennsylvania, whose economy is profoundly affected by its capacity for fracking, it is instructive to remember that in 2019, when running for President of the United States, then-Sen. Kamala Harris flatly stated she would ban fracking. Harris spoke at a CNN Climate Crisis Town Hall on September 4, 2019, hosted by CNN’s Erin Burnett. Jessie Bluedorn, whom CNN called a “climate activist” and worked with the “Climate Organization 350,” insisted, “The toxic impacts of fracking on the community are immense,” then asked, “From contaminated groundwater to poisonous emissions — will you commit to implementing a federal ban on fracking your first day in office, adding the United States to the list of countries who have banned this devastating practice?” Harris, who had said earlier in the town hall, “To the United States Congress, here’s my point. If they fail to act, as president of the United States, I am prepared to get rid of the filibuster to pass a Green New Deal,” answered, “There’s no question I’m in favor of banning fracking, so yes. And … starting with what we can do on day one around public lands, right? And then there has to be legislation, but yes — and this is something I’ve taken on in California. I have a history of working on this issue. And to your point, we have to just acknowledge that the residual impact of fracking is enormous in terms of the impact on the health and safety of communities — yeah, so thank you.” “So would you ban offshore drilling?” Burnett interjected. “Yes, and I’ve again, worked on that,” Harris responded. “You can — you can talk to the folks in Santa Barbara about the work that I’ve done there where it’s a big problem — but it’s a big problem in many areas of our country — and yes, I would. Yes.” “Pennsylvania’s natural gas sector supports ~123,000 statewide jobs and contributed more than $41 billion in 2022 state economic activity, according to the report conducted by energy economists at FTI Consulting, Inc., a global business advisory firm,” the Marcellus Shale Coalition has noted. PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC) noted in a recent study that in Pennsylvania, the natural gas and oil industry in 2021 directly and indirectly: Supported 423,700 total jobs (93,060 direct and 330,640 indirect) or 5.6 percent of Pennsylvania’s total employment. Generated an additional 3.6 jobs elsewhere in Pennsylvania’s economy for each direct job in the state’s natural gas and oil industry. Provided $40.3 billion in labor income ($14.3 billion direct and $26.0 billion indirect) to Pennsylvania, 7.5 percent of the state’s total. Contributed $75.0 billion to Pennsylvania’s total gross domestic product ($35.9 billion direct and $39.1 billion indirect), 8.9 percent of the state’s total.

Sen. Joe Manchin (I-WV) said on Monday he will not run for the White House after reportedly considering a campaign when President Joe Biden exited the race. “I am not going to be a candidate for president,” Manchin declared on CBS. “I am a candidate for basically speaking for the middle of this country … Neither side can win without the sensible, moderate middle. They can’t do it. But yet, no one is going in that direction.” Less than 24 hours earlier, after Biden dropped out on Sunday, multiple reports indicated Manchin was considering re-registering to the Democratic Party and running for the presidency. Sources told CNN and NBC News that Manchin was considering a bid. CBS News reporter Robert Costa reported how some Democratic Party donors and officials were reaching out to Manchin about it. Biden has endorsed Vice President Kamala Harris, the only declared candidate seeking the Democratic Party’s 2024 presidential nomination at the moment. A growing number of party leaders have quickly rallied behind Harris, but not everyone, including former President Barack Obama. Manchin, who left the Democratic Party and became an independent in late May, has not backed Harris. When asked on CBS if Harris was too far left on the political spectrum, Manchin said, “Absolutely.” He added, “Let’s see if she comes back. You know, a person can be in one position and make a change or a direction change and I would like to see that direction change.” The Democratic National Committee (DNC) is expected to have its delegates vote on a nominee next month during a virtual roll call or in an open convention at the party’s convention in Chicago from August 19-22. DNC Chairman Jaime Harrison said there would be a “transparent and orderly process” to pick a nominee who Democrats believe can defeat former President Donald Trump. Manchin said many people would like to see a “mini primary” that would help determine “if you have the strongest candidate, whether it be Kamala or whoever else.” He rejected the suggestion that he could join the race as Harris’ running mate, chuckling and saying it would not be him. When shown a graphic of governors, senators, and Biden Cabinet members who could join Harris’ ticket, Manchin said they were all “good people.” He added, “Wouldn’t it be great to see them all? I guarantee you, the Democratic Party would be able to pick from there if they hear them.”

Getting diagnosed with cancer is absolutely devastating. This is especially true when the type of cancer affects the brain. That was the case for Rachel Guberman at the age of 50. This is when she was diagnosed with Oligodendroglioma, the most common form of brain cancer. This type of cancer tends to grow slowly and, usually, isn’t considered curable. While surgery can be an option, it often spreads, making chemotherapy and radiation therapy the only options. But these options come with their own drawbacks, too. That’s why this new brain cancer medication is so life-changing. The medicine is called Vorasidenib. It’s been put through trials, so far proving to prevent the growth of lower-grade brain tumors. Doctors are calling this a “game changer.” This can be seen in the way nearly half the patients in their trials haven’t needed chemotherapy or radiation years later. Learn more about this life-saving brain cancer drug, and Rachel’s own journey, in the video below. With nearly 25,000 people expected to be diagnosed with a malignant brain and spinal cord tumor, it’s clear that medication like this has the power to change so many lives. This impact can already be seen in those who have taken part of the trial, including Rachel. It can take quite a while for medications and treatments to get approved for use. That’s why it’s so exciting that, after years of trials, Vorasidenib could officially get approved by the FDA as soon as August 20 of next month! Life-Saving Brain Cancer Drug May Get FDA Approval Soon “What’s exciting is this is a development that we haven’t seen in over 20 years,” Katherine B. Peters, neuro-oncologist at Duke Cancer Center says, “… when we looked at our patients that received vorasidenib in comparison with the placebo, those patients had a much improved prognosis, such that their progression-free survival was extended to 27.7 months compared with 11 months, which is a very large, statistically significant difference.” You can find the source of this story’s featured image here!

A heartwarming puppy rescue saved the lives of four adorable pooches, but it never would have happened if one kind stranger hadn’t followed his gut. When this man saw an oddly-placed plastic storage bin sitting out by a bridge, he decided to look inside. He found a littler of sweet pups trapped in the box, baking under the hot sun! Thankfully, they were still alive. Brother Wolf Animal Rescue stepped in to care for the puppies, who weren’t doing too well at first. They shared a heartbreaking photo of the tiny dogs inside the plastic bin on Facebook. How could anyone abandon those beautiful faces? “A hot plastic tote bin left in the sun,” wrote the shelter in their caption. “Inside? A sweet face peeks up. It felt like he was asking, ‘Are you going to help us? I don’t feel so good.'” Good news: these puppies are doing just fine now. Facebook In an update, Brother Wolf shared that the puppy rescue was a success! After these little cuties got the medical attention they needed, they started to feel way better. Footage from the shelter shows these dogs running and playing to their hearts’ delight! What a difference from when they were found “in a hot plastic tote bin — baking in the sun,” as the Facebook video describes. Of course, they owe it all to the gallant stranger who discovered them. In the same clip, Brother Wolf expressed their gratitude to the man for saving these pups. “We are so grateful he did, because if not, they wouldn’t be experiencing the good part of living,” they wrote. Screengrab from Facebook They also told Newsweek how much they appreciated this man for following his instincts and uncovering the abandoned dogs. “One of our community members found them near a bridge,” they said. “We are so grateful he looked inside the plastic tote bin when he had a gut feeling something was off.” According to the news outlet, the rescue puppies are now named Clubs, Diamonds, Spades and Hearts.

This is officially the youngest (and cutest) groupie we’ve ever seen! During one of his Boston shows, country star Zach Bryan met a baby fan in the crowd. Of course, this little guy was there with his family. As soon as the musician saw the tiny audience member, he just had to hold him. Parents Logan and Giordana D’Agostino caught the sweetest footage of the encounter! “Can’t wait to show our son this when he’s older!!!” Logan wrote in his social media caption. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Logan D'Agostino (@logan_dagostino) However, it turns out that Zach Bryan hadn’t seen the last of this baby, whose name is Leo. American Songwriter tells us that, when the artist returned to the Boston area for another concert at Gillette Stadium, the D’Agostinos were there once again. With them was their adorable son, wearing the same massive headphones to protect his ears from the loud show. As soon as Zach Bryan caught sight of the baby in the crowd, he recognized the little one immediately. Footage shows the star’s face lighting up with surprise as he realized Leo was back for more! “Again?” the singer exclaimed, gathering the child into his arms. View this post on Instagram A post shared by @giordana_dagostino Commenters on the D’Agostinos’ Instagram were touched by how Zach Bryan responded to seeing baby Leo a second time. “The fact that he remembered him and you guys,” wrote one user. A fellow concertgoer added, “I was there last night, I was so confused on why he stopped playing and then I saw Leo, so cute!” Zach Bryan will be continuing The Quittin’ Time Tour across the U.S. throughout the rest of 2024. It doesn’t look like he’ll be returning to the Boston area this time around, though. Perhaps he’ll see baby Leo again someday! Until then, we’re sure the D’Agostinos will cherish the memories they have. You can find the source of this story’s featured image here.
