Former President Donald Trump said on Monday that Vice President Kamala Harris was attempting to con the American public by shifting her positions on border security and copying his proposal to remove taxes on tips. Harris made headlines over the weekend after she said she would eliminate taxes on tips if elected president at a rally in Las Vegas, a policy first proposed by Trump two months ago.  “Kamala Harris has flip-flopped on virtually every policy she has supported and lived by for her entire career, from the Border to Tips, and the Fake News Media isn’t reporting it,” Trump posted on Truth Social on Monday. “She sounds more like Trump than Trump, copying almost everything. She is conning the American public, and will flip right back. I will MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN! There will be no flipping!!!” Trump first proposed stopping taxing tips in June, also at a rally in Las Vegas. “So this is the first time I’ve said this, and for those hotel workers and people that get tips, you’re going to be very happy because when I get to office, we are going to not charge taxes on tips, on people making tips,” Trump said at the rally. “And I think it’s going to be something that is deserved — more importantly — popular or unpopular, I do some unpopular things too, if it’s right for the country, I do what’s right.” WATCH THE TRAILER FOR ‘AM I RACIST?’ — A MATT WALSH COMEDY ON DEI Trump also ripped into Harris’s recent narrative that she is tough on border security. One of her new ads claims that she supported “the toughest border control bill in decades” and refers to her as a “border state prosecutor.” “Kamala Harris was put in sole charge of the Border,” Trump said on Monday. “It quickly became the WORST AND MOST DANGEROUS BORDER IN HISTORY. As President, Harris will completely DESTROY OUR COUNTRY!” Republicans have pushed back, pointing to the record number of illegal immigrants who have entered the country during the Biden-Harris administration and her reported role as Biden’s “border czar.” Trump currently maintains a narrow lead in five of the seven key battleground polls, according to the most recent average of polling. Harris has narrow leads in both Wisconsin and Michigan.

Our list of the 10 angriest songs in rock music presents a wide variety of tunes that, for the most part, are not really happy songs. Of course, it would be very easy to fill this list with 10 songs fueled by metal bands. In the metal genre, there are some bands where everything they write and compose is angry. However, that would just be no fun. The challenge is to find angry songs in rock music that have found their way into the mainstream and others that may have just been boiling a little bit under the radar.

Hi, I’m Christopher! Read my introduction to learn more about me and my silly Russian Blue cat, Olga. Dressing up cats and dogs is a common practice, and if you’re the lucky owner of a successful feline or canine influencer, it’s pretty lucrative. Sometimes, it’s more entertaining to view photos and videos of animals than ones with humans, and I’ll admit that a Bulldog dressed like a biker in the 1950s is amusing. However, animals are not free to choose whether they want to wear clothes. Some don’t seem uncomfortable, but most, even the ones featured in online ads for pet products, look sad and irritated. I don’t think it’s cruel to dress up pets for photos or special occasions as long as they only wear the clothes for a few minutes. Pet Fashion Several photos are hilarious, but I don’t like seeing painted horses, turtles, or pets that look miserable. I don’t dress my cat because I think Olga is attractive enough without wearing apparel, and I prefer not to have my arms torn to shreds. Since it took her a while before she even allowed me to pick her up, I doubt she would want an ushanka or beret on her head. While I understand the entertainment value of fully clothed felines, I’ve never understood why some people are so fascinated by them. The pet apparel industry is booming, and several pet owners think making their cats look fashionable is essential, which is what the industry tries to promote. Can I go outside and play with the birds? Costume Issues Winter jackets and other cold-weather gear are needed when walking pets in frigid conditions, and they’re usually designed to fit the animal’s anatomy. On the other hand, commercial pet costumes, especially those for Halloween, are designed to amuse rather than fit comfortably. They make cats look cartoonish or like injured, unhappy creatures with ill-fitting clothes. It may seem okay to annoy our felines for a few hours on Halloween, but cats can be creepy without costumes, and they’ve always been associated with the holiday. They don’t need a Dracula robe or Michael Myers mask to look or act like psychopaths. They’re naturally insane and more expressive when not burdened by poorly made fabrics. Being a cat is hard work! Olga’s Natural Style I enjoy watching Olga when she’s energized and clownish, and wearing clothes would only slow her down. She’s au natural in holiday pictures and isn’t wearing a Santa hat or ugly sweater. She’s following my fashion trends; I’ve been accused of being a humbug for not wearing festive gear. Some cat owners want their cats to look like them, and goofy clothing helps them achieve that, but I’ve never wanted Olga to look like me. I would have to shave her head, spray-paint her fur, and give her a fake beard. Those inhumane actions would result in a comical-looking cat, but she wouldn’t be happy or as pretty as before. The only appropriate attire for Olga is a blood-stained butcher’s apron because of her slicing and dicing skills, but I wouldn’t force her to wear one, even for a laugh.
