Coco Gauff had a taste of her own advice when Emma Navarro beat her decisively in the round of sixteen at the U.S. Open in Flushing Meadows, N.Y. In the previous round they both beat their Ukrainian opponents, Elena Svitolina and Marta Kostyuk, in practically identical three set matches, meaning they were close enough to feel good about getting through. Tiafoe … is one of several American men very much in the running for the final this year. Same here, 6-3. 4-6. 6-3; Miss Navarro was solid all the way, Miss Gauff surged in the second.  But in the third she went haywire on service, with eleven of the nineteen double faults she made over the match, and her forehand, which had been holding up well, let her down. It may not be the time to remind her she is only 20, but in fact what she said about the futility of stress over a victory lap is spot on, and for her daily Bible, no one I am sure needs to tell her, honestly she can start with Ps 1:1-2, solid advice, and go from there. The crowd was disappointed; crowds have their favorites. New York tennis crowds are savvy, however, and it was clear from the slightly grudged applause that this one appreciated Miss Navarro’s intelligent game and calm, consistent execution.  Miss Navarro was NCAA champion at U. Virginia, leaving after her sophomore year; which is not to say brainy girls are better off seeking intellectual and career opportunity other than in today’s institutions of higher education, but you might want to look into this. Not that Miss Navarro need worry too much on that side, as she is a heiress, as is Jessica Pegula, who also advanced. What is noteworthy here as a subtext to excellent tennis all around is that it shows having rich parents need not spoil you; rich or poor, only hard work gets you anywhere, in love and career. Parents evidently matter.  The original girl superstar tennis player, Suzanne Lenglen, had a father who, once he grasped that she was exceptionally talented in sports, pushed her hard.  He had made money in the public transport business, until he lost it, and she developed a chronic tendency to faint and become ill. You can make of it what you will, she was the absolute top player, with American Bill Tilden (who had some old money) of the 1920s and revolutionized women’s tennis. In a way she anticipated Venus and Serena Williams, who also revolutionized women’s tennis and whose father also belonged to the you-can-make-it school. Not to get too far off on this, Althea Gibson’s father too, come to think of it, was rather like this, in that he encouraged his prodigious little tomboy to go all out in whatever sport she liked, including, on the streets of the poor neighborhoods where they lived, stoop ball and stick ball. The boisterous but generally well-mannered audience at Arthur Ashe Stadium was rewarded with a big win from Frances Tiafoe over Alexei Popyrin.  The Australian had just beaten Novak Djokovic in a major upset, but Tiafoe had played the more demanding previous match, beating his friend and rival Ben Shelton in five very physical sets.  Then again, what is more demanding, beating your friend or taking on the most accomplished, at least most successful — leave aside controversial qualifiers like greatest and best — player of the century? Tiafoe, whose own work ethic coupled with infectious good nature is known to fans and rivals alike, is one of several American men very much in the running for the final this year, what with Djokovic and Carlos Alcaraz, recent champions, upset early.  One of these Yank hopes, Tommy Paul, next runs into top seeded Jannik Sinner and California’s Taylor Fritz meets in-form Alexander Zverev, who in the round of sixteen beat the other Californian, Brandon Nakashima. For now, another Coco favorite (we are sure), and apt today well beyond tennis, Prov. 28. We’ll have occasion to return to this.

In order to succeed in today's Democratic Party, one must possess the ability to lie without shame. With that in mind, Vice President and 2024 presidential nominee Kamala Harris chose Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota as her running mate. Sunday on the social media platform X, journalist Megyn Kelly announced...

Looks like Tim Walz’s motorcade is having a bit of trouble. En route to a Labor Day event, something snagged their plans. The press vans collided on I-794. And more than the vehicles were hurt. One staffer was left with a broken arm. Think Walz stopped to see if everyone in the collision was okay? #BREAKING: Several vehicles in Tim Walz’s motorcade have crashed Several members of the press have been injured, including one with a broken arm. Walz did not stop, and immediately carried on to his event like nothing happened. Trump would’ve stopped to make sure they were… pic.twitter.com/WO8bDoUkLx — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) September 2, 2024 CBS News reports: Vans carrying members of the press that were part of Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz‘s motorcade were involved in a crash on Monday afternoon. Journalists traveling with the vice presidential nominee said the crash happened shortly before 1 p.m. on Interstate 794. Walz was on his way to an event celebrating Labor Day in Milwaukee. A staff member in one of the press vans appeared to have a broken arm and was being treated by medics.

WARNING: this is ultra cringe! Proceed at your own risk…. Why do Democrats constantly feel a need to pander to black people in the worst way possible? Remember when Hillary Clinton tried to claim she carries hot sauce in her bag? When she tried to tell The Breakfast Club hosts that she carries hot sauce in her bag? And then they called her out for pandering, to which she paused and said: “well, is it working?” Such a cringe moment, take a look: Kamala “relating to the blacks” using the Hillary hot sauce approach. A sure-fire way to get that urban street cred that’ll propel her to power! #HarrisWalz2024 #HIllaryHotSauce pic.twitter.com/qg2xWNkfze — Now The End Begins (@NowTheEndBegins) September 1, 2024 Hillary suddenly thinks she’s Delonte West, what a joke! But Kamala Harris is now taking it to a whole other level…. Instead of claiming she carries “hot sauce in her bagggggg, hot sauce in her bag? Hot sauce in her bag!” Kamala claims she washes her collard greens in her bathtub. Check out this ultra-cringe transcript where she also finds a way to mention that hot sauce too: Kamala Harris: I have a friend who had a Christmas party, Christmas Eve every year, and she asked me to make the greens for a party every year. And I am not lying to you that I would make so many greens that I’d need to wash them in the bathtub. I’m telling you the truth. Georgia voter: So how do you make your greens? Do you put turkey in them? Do you put it? Kamala Harris:  Bacon. Georgia voter: Nice. Kamala Harris: My grandma used to put bacon. She used to put garlic. I put white vinegar. So I start with… I slice up My garlic. But first I fry, chop up the bacon and get all that fat going. Then I put garlic, some chili peppers, and then a lot of water, and a little chicken stock. And I let it go for a while before I put the greens in. And then, right? So you get that going and all that flavor. And then I put the greens in for a couple of hours. Then I do vinegar, and then I cheat and do a little Tabasco. Georgia voter: No, that’s okay. Kamala Harris: Yeah, because Tabasco, I like Louisiana hot. Tabasco has that right amount of vinegar. So that’s how I do my green. Georgia voter: I see why you get invited every year. Watch here: The secret ingredient for my greens? Tabasco. pic.twitter.com/zsooG51YaW — Kamala Harris (@KamalaHarris) September 1, 2024 That hot sauce and collard greens pairs nicely with her new accent too: Kamala Harris Rolls Out Offensive New Accent Kamala Harris has just rolled out a brand new accent…. And if you ask me, it’s horribly offensive. Is this what she thinks black people sound like? Is she trying to be black? I can’t keep up which day she is black vs which day she is Asian vs which day she is Indian vs which day she is “goofy white woman”….it’s all so terribly confusing! But ratcheting up an accent like this just to pander to black people seems wildly racist and offensive if you ask me: Where the hell did this new Kamala accent come from?! Who is telling her this is a good idea? pic.twitter.com/fyjNGZBjFB — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) September 2, 2024 Full screen video player here: Kamala Harris unveils offensive new accent pic.twitter.com/YNLAKJLJck — DailyNoah.com (@DailyNoahNews) September 2, 2024 Here’s a history of all the different accents she has used over the years…. INSULTING: Listen To Kamala Harris’ New Accent This is absolutely insulting….to pretty much everyone! Imagine being SO fake that you change your accent everywhere you go. Down in the South? Suddenly you have a southern drawl y’all…. In Detroit? Suddenly you sound like this: Looks like Kamala Harris developed a new accent when she landed in Detroit! “The courts are gonna handle dat. We gon’ beat him in Novemba. We gon’ beat him in Novemba” She’s a FRAUD. pic.twitter.com/9cMWI3tHtc — Nick Sortor (@nicksortor) August 8, 2024 Wow, that’s bad! And so insulting to black people. First of all, it’s insulting to think you can win over a group by pretending to speak like them.  So fake and inauthentic. But second of all, it’s really insulting that she thinks they sound like that! What a racist accent! Here she is doing a similar “urban” accent: Kamala faking an “urban” accent. Her mother is from India. Her father is from Jamaica. Faking an accent to sound more “black” is… weird. pic.twitter.com/QF1PmAEbLx — Liz Wheeler (@Liz_Wheeler) July 31, 2024 This one really exposes it… Watch as she shifts like a chameleon depending on which group of people she’s talking to: One whole minute of Kamala Harris changing her accent based on the racial group she’s talking to: pic.twitter.com/b7Slph09v0 — Isabella Maria DeLuca (@IsabellaMDeLuca) August 3, 2024 More ghetto accent next….

The master was Hillary Clinton.

Including this: The TRUTH Behind Kamala Harris’ “HUGE” Rallies… Have you seen the news? It’s all over Twitter from the big Democrat accounts… Kamala Harris is holding bigger rallies than President Trump! People like Harry Sisson have been creaming their pants all day posting about the “huge” crowd size: WOW! The crowd at the Harris Walz rally in Wisconsin just began chanting, “THIS IS WHAT DEMOCRACY LOOKS LIKE!” You’re damn right it does! Blown away by this video. Share this everywhere. pic.twitter.com/ChdSUhOuGy — Harry Sisson (@harryjsisson) August 7, 2024 So…is it true? Is Kamala Harris suddenly drawing bigger crowds than Trump? Is she suddenly the most popular person in America, people hanging on her every word (salad)? Ehhhh, not exactly. Allow me to explain…. In 2016, President Trump started doing something unprecedented — holding massive rallies all across America. It hadn’t really been done before. Previously, political candidates would maybe fill a local high school gym. But never a stadium or arena. Trump was different. He changed the game. And I’ve always said he did it for TWO reasons. One was simply to get people excited and to “campaign” just like everyone else but only bigger. But the second reason, and I believe the bigger reason, was to SHOW America that there’s no way Hillary could win and it not be rigged. While Trump was filling stadiums, Hillary couldn’t fill that proverbial high school gym, and all of America saw it. Trump’s popularity was literally TOO BIG TO STEAL. It was so smart and calculated. Then in 2020, they knew they couldn’t allow that to happen again so they basically shut down the world. Bye, bye rallies. “Of course Joe Biden can’t draw a crowd because NO ONE CAN because you can’t be closer than 6 feet from the next person!” Does it all make sense now? Remember those “COVID hula hoop circles”? It’s not cause Joe was unpopular….nah, no way! It’s because….COVID! But now we’re in 2024 and Trump is drawing massive crowds again. So what do they do now? You can’t shut down the world again, that would be too obvious. So the only option left is Kamala has to have equally big crowds as Trump. Simple! But how? Easy…you actually make them concerts with super popular musicians and you just let Kamala “tag along”. That’s exactly what happened in Eau Claire today. This is not a Harris Rally, this is a “Bon Iver” concert: OMG! The Kamala Harris Rally Line in Eau Claire, Wisconsin is soooo long! What’s not being reported is that they got Bon Iver, who is a local from Eau Claire, Wisconsin, a Grammy-Award winning music artist to perform at the rally. So basically, it’s another free concert..… pic.twitter.com/wRui7ELdkw — MJTruthUltra (@MJTruthUltra) August 7, 2024 OMG! The Kamala Harris Rally Line in Eau Claire, Wisconsin is soooo long!

Get prepared, because they’re going to do this for all their events, to build the illusion of enthusiasm and excitement. When all it really is they are tapping into the blackmailed star power at their disposal. And from Dom Lucre, here’s more: HAPPENING NOW: Many journalists are reporting that Kamala Harris rally in Eau Claire, Wisconsin is a massive crowd and that Democrats are charged up but they are failing to mention the fact that multi Grammy award winning and Billboard number one charting band Bon Iver with… pic.twitter.com/d87H8HkTic — Dom Lucre | Breaker of Narratives (@dom_lucre) August 7, 2024 HAPPENING NOW: Many journalists are reporting that Kamala Harris rally in Eau Claire, Wisconsin is a massive crowd and that Democrats are charged up but they are failing to mention the fact that multi Grammy award winning and Billboard number one charting band Bon Iver with Justin Verno is performing at this rally WHICH IS THEIR HOME TOWN. It is the same strategy Kamala Harris had in Atlanta with Megan Thee Stallion along with bussing homeless citizens and pedestrians that were willing to go to a free concert. If you claim to be a conservative and you are constantly claiming Kamala’s campaign is ‘killing it’s you disgust me, we are at war right now, they don’t CARE if you are being ‘unbiased’ because their bias spin doctors will use your unbiased report as fuel for their own cause. I will admit, I used to try to take that unbiased approach but I learned we are dealing with true demons this election, they aren’t playing fair. How many liberals ever gave us credit for having the largest rallies in political history nearly every week? With no gimmicks we did that and do that, yet the same liberals that claim rally numbers don’t matter, MAGA boats don’t matter are now sharing this same content for Harris, some of you really care more about ad revenue than this county. We have to win, this is unacceptable. Democrats win because they play the OPTICS game. We are in 5th generational warfare and we have conservative accounts damn near congratulating and praising Kamala Harris fake campaign. Expose the truth, expose the payments, expose the fake social media campaign, expose the fake zooms, expose the bitter accounts, expose the people that leave after the star is gone, expose the other party, we have to FIGHT TOGETHER, we are in THE FINAL FU*ING HOUR. FIGHT FIGHT FIGHT! So….how was the concert? Bad. REALLY bad. This is not edited, but it might make your ears bleed: This is not edited. This is real.

It was hosted by tech entrepreneur Palmer Luckey and Kimberly and John Word. The location was at the home of health insurance company owner John Word and his wife Kimberly on Harbor Island in Newport Beach. The fundraiser offered various ticket prices, ranging from $3,300 for a lunch reception to $100,000 to be designated as a member of the roundtable host committee. Road Closures: Bayside Drive from Jamboree Road to Pacific Coast Highway was closed to all motor traffic starting at 7 a.m. Only local residents were permitted to enter with proof of residency, such as photo identification, passport, or some other proof of address. Street closures continued through 3 p.m., according to the Newport Beach Police Department. Public Response: Supporters lined the streets of Newport Beach early in the morning, hoping to catch a glimpse of the motorcade en route to the fundraiser. The harbor was filled with boats flying Trump flags. Supporters gathered at various intersections, showing enthusiasm for the event. A tweet from @TrumpDailyPosts showed a video of a Trump caravan arriving in Newport Beach, viewed from a boat on Newport Harbor. Political Context: The event comes shortly after Trump was convicted on 34 felony charges, which has not slowed down his campaign efforts or fundraising. The Trump campaign reported a spike of nearly $35 million in donations following his conviction. Trump’s visit to Newport Beach is part of a larger fundraising swing across Southern California. Media Coverage: The event was closed to the news media, as is customary for a fundraiser for a presidential candidate. Several tweets and posts on social media platforms like Twitter/X provided live updates and visuals from the event and its surroundings.

I guess Tim Walz or the people running his Twitter haven’t yet figured out how to turn off comments on his posts… But I’m sure they’ll be doing that soon after how poorly this just went. Everything about these people (Walz and CommieLa) is so fake and phony, but I am encouraged and heartened to see that the American people see right through it! Thank you Elon for giving us this public platform that shows the TRUE WILL of the people! And it turns out the true will of the people is they don’t much like Tim Walz. I’ll show you… First, here was his post: Had to jump in and serve up some ice cream at the fair yesterday. Thanks to the Dairy Building crew for showing us how it’s done. pic.twitter.com/UB0G7IdEqg — Tim Walz (@Tim_Walz) September 2, 2024 Oh, you just had to jump in serve some ice cream, huh Tim? They were just understaffed? Not enough ice cream scoopers on hand, good thing you were there to save the day? How ultra fake and phony! But that’s all these people know how to do, so you almost can’t blame them. When you have zero good policies to run on, you can only do two things: (1) steal ideas from Trump, and (2) constantly talk only about ice cream. Kamala does #1. Tim Walz and Joe Biden do #2. It’s sad. But I was curious to see what other people thought so I clicked in and I was so happy to see almost every single comment in the Top 50 comments was absolutely TRASHING this phony! Since I expect they’ll soon take the post down, or delete the negative comments, here are some screenshots: But it just kept going…. On and on and on!
