During CBS Mornings’ “Changing the Game” series Wednesday morning, hosts highlighted the gender-inclusive clothing brand Dapper Boi. The brand was started by a butch girl who liked dressing like a boy but couldn’t find mens clothes to fit her body…because she’s a girl. “Our series ‘Changing the Game’ highlights extraordinary women making a difference and for June’s pride month we’re celebrating members of the lgbtq+ community. We’re introducing you to Dapper Boi, gender neutral, size inclusive line created by married couple Charisse and Vicky Pasche,” CBS Mornings host Tony Dokoupil cheerfully said. As with most lesbian relationships, the one that dressed, looked and acted more like the male of the relationship, Vicky, talked about her struggle to find clothes that fit her body in the men's department. Yeah, it really was my own personal journey shopping in the men's department. Once I was comfortable enough to do that, which is kind of a crazy experience socially, you know, are the clothes going to fit, it was everything to me. Those clothes exactly represented my inside on the outside. But I realized down the line and more so what my fashionista wife over here pointed out that the clothes really never fit my body. The wife, Charisse, talked about how it was a “privilege for someone like myself to take clothes off the rack and it fits,” noting that for Vicky, a “plus sized” woman who wants to dress in men's clothes, it's much more challenging. The wives joked about how the idea for the gender-neutral clothing line was “conceived” on their honeymoon. “Most people conceive their first child on their honeymoon, and we conceived our first baby which is Dapper Boi,” Chariesse said. “Because Vicky, you said you didn’t feel comfortable in the men or the women’s section,” host Gayle King chimed in. Vicky said “I’m a plus-sized person” before noting that “if I were to try on the men’s like highest sized jeans, I’d have to go on really two sizes too bug. They’d still be just frumpy and loose in all the wrong places.” Host Vladimir Duthiers said, “you say the brand isn’t about genders but about bodies,” before pointing towards a few mannequins in Dapper Boi outfits. Vicky talked about how at regular department stores, “you literally have two options –- the men's section and the women's section. We don't think about it, [it’s] just what it is. But really it’s just embedded with these societal rules and norms based on your gender. And we're looking to break that. Our goal is to be the next Levi's of all gender fashion.” Hosts praised the success of the “multimillion dollar business” that “started on the honeymoon.” “We’re inspiring people, changing people lives everyday,” Vicky said. “Bravo Pasches. Congratulations,” King concluded. Good God. When is CBS Mornings going to stop shoving woke crap and gender garbage down our throats and give airtime to things people actually care about?

During Tuesday night’s episode of The 11th Hour, MSNBC host Stephanie Ruhle showed a pre-recorded segment of her interview with Senator Joe Manchin (I-WV) and his daughter Heather Bresch at the Aspen Ideas Festival. Throughout the interview, Manchin explained his decision to leave the Democratic Party and called out the media as responsible for the drastic political polarization in the U.S. Ruhle asked Manchin for his opinion on the root cause of political polarization, which the senator insisted was the fault of “you all,” meaning the media. In response, the host shouted a censored expletive and told the senator, “Wrong answer!”  However, Manchin stood his ground and suggested that “You all should be paying Donald Trump royalties. You have him on every minute of every day, all day long, seven days a week.” He also chided Ruhle and pointed out that the news has the “ability to sensationalize bad behavior”, adding that “it used to be if it bleeds it reads, and now if it's sensational, you put it on.”     “I can't take it anymore, I turn on Life Below Zero up in Alaska just to get through the night,” Manchin joked. Manchin illustrated the disunity in American politics as the direct result of the “toxic” weaponization of the Republican and Democratic parties: You know, if you’re on one side you’re supposed to hate the other. But if you're a Democrat you’re supposed to hate Republicans, if you’re a Republican you’re supposed to hate Democrats. I don't hate anybody. They’re all my friends and I thought, well, the best way to love both of them, be an independent and talk to both of them. He also revealed that even though he had always identified as a Democrat out of loyalty to his grandfather, he never “subscribed” to either side and disagreed with certain issues regardless of the party. “I have never looked at politics as far as a partisan issue or Democrat, Republican. Never have,” he affirmed. Manchin expressed his disappointment with the devolvement of the Democrat Party and its aggressive shift to the far-left. Furthermore, he told Ruhle that it reached a point where it was impossible for him to continue to defend Democratic policies to his home state of West Virginia and doing so would be a violation of his core principles: Yeah, went too far to the left for me, basically, to go home and defend. I’ve always said this, you know, you are who you are, no matter where you were raised, how you were raised, and who raised you. No matter what station in life you are today–God bless everybody–but you still think about how you were raised, where you were raised, and who raised you. And can you go back home and talk to them? Well, if I can’t go home and explain it, I can’t vote for it. I can't support it. And it moves so far to the left, there's a lot of things I could not vote for or support. For her part, Bresch outlined a comprehensive plan to increase political involvement for independent voters and allow for “more responsible representation”: But if we opened primaries and gave the ability to have ranked choice or immediate runoff in the general election, I think it is the most proven way to level the playing field of parties. It's not saying you’re anti-party. You get one ballot for a primary, you see Republican, Independent, Democratic candidates, you vote for one. Then the top four, the top five go to the general election and you rank the order of whom you like…We know that it allows more people the opportunity to get involved and it allows more responsible representation. Towards the end of the segment, Ruhle essentially proved his point about the media by repeatedly pressing Manchin for a Joe Biden endorsement, though he refused to submit to the pressure and declared his intention to pull the president back to the center. “I think those of us who’ve known Joe Biden for a long time would like to see the Joe Biden we've known,” he stated. The transcript is below. Click "expand" to read: MSNBC’s The 11th Hour 6/25/2024 11:37:48 PM EST [Cuts to video] STEPHANIE RUHLE: You know, I'm going to start with the obvious question, Senator. What made you decide to make this move, what couldn’t you do as a Democrat in office, that made you make this decision just a few months ago? SEN. JOE MANCHIN (I-WV): Well, both brands have become so toxic because they’ve basically been weaponized. You know, if you’re on one side you’re supposed to hate the other. But if you're a Democrat you’re supposed to hate Republicans, if you’re a Republican you’re supposed to hate Democrats. I don't hate anybody. They’re all my friends and I thought, well, the best way to love both of them, be an independent and talk to both of them because... RUHLE: And do you think that's how they took it? MANCHIN: Well, let me just say this. Not having a brand and you’re speaking to them, they’re not looking at you through colored–rose-colored glasses like you’re trying to pull something over on them. They know me well enough. But it’s with that it’s made it hard.  There's a lot of things I didn't agree with and there’s a lot–and someone said “Why don’t you be a Republican?” Well, there's a lot of things I don't agree with on the Republican side. But what happens is that you get to Washington and you got to pick a side. Well, I never subscribed to that, even though I had a “D” by my name all my life.  They said, “Why are you Democrat?” I said, “Well, I guess my grandfather was very [impressed with?] FDR back in the coal mining days of 1930’s of West Virginia–kinda gave him a start and helped him and everything–so, out of loyalty, you know, I never thought anything.  I have never looked at politics as far as a partisan issue or Democrat, Republican. Never have. RUHLE: Did you feel like you couldn’t be a Democrat representing West Virginia or did you feel like the Democratic Party went too far to the left… MANCHIN: Went too far. RUHLE: …for Joe Manchin. MANCHIN: Yeah, went too far to the left for me, basically, to go home and defend. I’ve always said this, you know, you are who you are, no matter where you were raised, how you were raised, and who raised you. No matter what station in life you are today–God bless everybody–but you still think about how you were raised, where you were raised, and who raised you. And can you go back home and talk to them? Well, if I can’t go home and explain it, I can’t vote for it. I can't support it. And it moves so far to the left, there's a lot of things I could not vote for or support. [Transition] RUHLE: Heather, you call the silent majority, the sensible majority and I believe a lot of people here aren't the disaffected voter but they are part of the sensible majority who thinks, “I guess the system doesn't work,” but they want it to. So let's get practical on what has to get done. HEATHER BRESCH: Yeah. So, I think, as you said, we all recognize it's broken, how can we fix it? Or, there's tangible steps to take and I think there is hope and a light at the end of the tunnel.  So, after kinda diving deep, it became very clear, the point dad was just making, there is zero infrastructure in Washington, D.C., for anybody that wants to be center-right, center-left, or an independent. There's no place to come have a cup of coffee with Senator Manchin, or Senator Murkowski, or Senator Romney, if you’re Jared Golden or Marie Perez, that want to stay moderate, to have help writing op-eds, to have just infrastructure, fundraising, that the parties offer. Not just the parties, but I'm talking almost college campuses, for dinner, for all your needs. So, there's a huge vacuum white space there. So, that is needed to be filled, for sure, a center for the center. I think structurally, it's totally nonpartisan.  But if we opened primaries and gave the ability to have ranked choice or immediate runoff in the general election, I think it is the most proven way to level the playing field of parties. It's not saying you’re anti-party. You get one ballot for a primary, you see Republican, Independent, Democratic candidates, you vote for one. Then the top four, the top five go to the general election and you rank the order of whom you like. We know it moderates, we know that's the only reason Senator Murkowski is in the Senate, from Alaska. We know that it allows more people the opportunity to get involved and it allows more responsible representation. [Transition] RUHLE: How did we become so polarized? Was it our politicians that saw the– MANCHIN: To me, it's you all. RUHLE: Oh, [Bleep], wrong answer! BRESCH: That's funny. RUHLE: But that could be, right? Is it media, is it politicians, or is it the American people? Like, what is the root cause of it? MANCHIN: You all should be paying Donald Trump royalties.  RUHLE: Yeah. MANCHIN: You have him on every minute of every day, all day long, seven days a week. [Applause] BRESCH: But let me–I guess I’ll say this… RUHLE: Hold on a minute. Like, I get that that gets applause. BRESCH: Before we get to… RUHLE: Ready?  MANCHIN: (Laughs). RUHLE: Hold on. He's a former president of the United States, who just sat at a criminal trial and was convicted of 34 felonies. What do you think should be on the news? [Input from audience] BRESCH: They’re saying back in 2015, 2016. MANCHIN: Whenever. I’m just saying this. The bottom line is, you all have the ability to sensationalize bad behavior, okay? Because it used to be if it bleeds it reads, and now if it's sensational, you put it on. RUHLE: There’d be nothing to sensationalize if the behavior wasn’t bad. MANCHIN: I know. But I’m just saying, I gotta–I can't take it anymore, I turn on Life Below Zero up in Alaska just to get through the night. RUHLE: (Laughs). [Transition] RUHLE: Help us understand who that West Virginia voter is because it's in your state where you’ve seen that anger, where you saw all of the support, you know those grievance voters.  MANCHIN: Right. RUHLE: Where did that come from, and where did your party miss the mark so much? Because, again, before politics, it's about respect and dignity? MANCHIN: The West Virginia Democrats felt like the returning Vietnam veteran. We have done every–taken every order you have given us and we've done everything you asked. We never said no, we did the heavy lifting, and now we’re not good enough, clean enough, bright enough, smart enough. You don’t want us at all, you’ve just thrown us to the side. They just flip continuously.  So, I will say this about Joe Biden. He took that to heart and I said, “Mr. President, you cannot leave anybody behind.” So, we wrote some of these bills that we have, the REA [inaudible] and some of them. We have done that, where you get a boost if you go into an area where that–we’re not using the resources anymore, whether it be coal or different things. Those areas have to be able to–be able to sustain themselves. And that wasn’t done. That's how we flipped so quick. We didn’t ever flip that quick. It's never been done in our history of our country. RUHLE: So, are you voting for him in November? MANCHIN: Who? RUHLE: Joe Biden, who you just… MANCHIN: No, I voted for him–no, I voted for him last time.  RUHLE: No. Will you vote for him this November? MANCHIN: I’m gonna be voting. I'm trying to bring my buddy back to the middle. I'm just working hard. Pulling him back. RUHLE: And, so, you will vote for him? MANCHIN: I’m gonna be pulling him back to the middle.  [Laughs] MANCHIN: I said, I love my country too much to vote for Donald Trump. And I know–I know Donald real well but I just think that, you know, the transfer–orderly transfer of power, the rule of law, the love we should have for our judicial system, it's still the best in the world and he tried to basically just destroy those two. It's just–it’s more than I can take. But with that… [Applause] MANCHIN: …but with that, but with that, I think those of us who’ve known Joe Biden for a long time would like to see the Joe Biden we've known. (...)

UFC No. 1 contender Jiri Prochazka accused light heavyweight champion Alex Pereira of using dark forces to harness energy in his fights.Prochazka and Pereira are facing off for the second time at UFC 303 in Las Vegas, Nevada, and the often spiritual Prochazka recently noted that his opponent has been utilizing "shamans" ahead of fights."He believes in the help of of spiritual things," the former champion said. "That's something I think he can't fight without. I want to keep [the fight] in a clear line, just the sport, pure performance, men versus men. I think he doesn't know how to fight without because he used these things every time."'Everyone knows that he's doing these rituals.'Host Ariel Helwani asked for clarification on what he meant by "spiritual things.""He is working with some shamans from his hometown and he believes in some spiritual help from them," the Czech Republic native replied on "The MMA Hour." "I believe too, but I believe in the best performance, in the human performance right here, right now, without magic."During a press conference for UFC 303 two days later, Prochazka was asked again about spiritual forces by a reporter."Everyone knows that he's doing these rituals," he stated. "Before the fight, everyone can feel that. What's around him and what's going on. So I think Alex can't fight without that. That's something that he's using normally in fighting. Let's see, this is my challenge to him.""Let's fight in a clear way, to not have other things, some whatever [in the cage]. Let the higher power be in the cage to see which is the best, in the pure performance. That's all," the 205-pound fighter added.Pereira responded during his own segment of the press conference and did not take the chance to downplay the accusations, instead opting to question Prochazka's own spirituality."Well, everybody has their own spirits; we're not just made of flesh and bone," Pereira said. "If he did not find his or he doesn't believe, that's not my fault."The reigning champion was also asked if he thought Prochazka was an "unusual" man."For me, he is a normal guy. Everybody has their own ways and their own expressions, but for me it's just a normal guy," Pereira added.Like Blaze News?

At 9 p.m. ET on Thursday, CNN will host the first interparty presidential debate of the 2024 election, a debate between President Joe Biden and former President Donald Trump, who have not yet even been officially certified as their respective partyies' nominees. Their debates in 2020 were contentious, and Thursday promises to be no different. The network hosting the debate, CNN, will likely play a significant role as well, and if past presidential debates hosted by CNN are any indication, the network will likely run interference for Biden. Here are three notable moments in which CNN operatives apparently assisted certain Democrat candidates: Candy Crowley saves Obama from himself On October 16, 2012, then-President Barack Obama joined current Republican Utah Sen. Mitt Romney for their second of three debates before the 2012 presidential election. CNN hosted the debate, and then-anchor Candy Crowley served as moderator. A month prior to the debate, on the 11th anniversary of the September 11 attacks of 2001, Islamic terrorists stormed an American diplomatic compound and a nearby annex in Benghazi, Libya, and murdered four Americans: Ambassador Christopher Stevens, U.S. Foreign Service officer Sean Smith, and two CIA contractors, Tyrone Woods and Glen Doherty. Obama even then cheered on his teammate: 'Can you say that a little louder, Candy?' In the days and weeks following, Obama, then-Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, then-U.N. Ambassador Susan Rice, and others blamed the attack on a YouTube video, created by an American, that criticized Muslims. "Based on the best information we have to date," Rice said at the time on "Face the Nation," "... [the attack] began spontaneously in Benghazi as a reaction to what had transpired some hours earlier in Cairo, where ... there was a violent protest outside our embassy sparked by this hateful video." But the video had nothing to do with what turned out to have been another coordinated terrorist attack on Americans on September 11. During the 2012 presidential debate, Crowley asked Obama about these events, and Obama insisted that within 24 hours, he called them "an act of terror." Romney then jumped in and asked Obama whether he had understood him correctly: "You said in the Rose Garden the day after the attack, it was an act of terror, it was not a spontaneous demonstration, is that what you’re saying?" "I want to make sure we get that for the record," Romney continued, "because it took the president 14 days before he called the attack in Benghazi an act of terror." Crowley then stepped out of her role as moderator and openly sided with Obama, claiming that Obama "did, in fact," call the Benghazi attacks an act of terror. Obama even then cheered on his teammate: "Can you say that a little louder, Candy?" A few weeks later, Obama routed Romney and coasted to re-election, 332 electoral votes to Romney's 206. Donna Brazile feeds Hillary Clinton debate questions Donna Brazile, who has bounced back and forth between Democrat campaign work and newsroom punditry for decades, was a powerful figure in the 2016 political landscape. By that point, Brazile had been making regular appearances on CNN as a Democrat strategist for years. She had also spent years in DNC leadership roles. So when DNC Chair Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz abruptly resigned her DNC position in July 2016 following the explosive news from Julian Assange's WikiLeaks that the DNC had rigged the Democrat primary for Hillary Clinton against Sen. Bernie Sanders, Brazile immediately stepped in as interim DNC chair, even as she continued her contributor position at CNN. 'My job was to make all our Democratic candidates look good.' However, the WikiLeaks scandal became much more personal for Brazile in October 2016 when leaked emails revealed that earlier that year, Brazile had shared with the Clinton campaign at least two questions Hillary Clinton would likely receive during an upcoming primary debate co-hosted by CNN. One question related to fallout from the water crisis in Flint, Michigan. Another related to the death penalty: Here's one that worries me about HRC. DEATH PENALTY 19 states and the District of Columbia have banned the death penalty. 31 states, including Ohio, still have the death penalty. According to the National Coalition to Abolish the Death Penalty, since 1973, 156 people have been on death row and later set free. Since 1976, 1,414 people have been executed in the U.S. That’s 11% of Americans who were sentenced to die, but later exonerated and freed. Should Ohio and the 30 other states join the current list and abolish the death penalty? Sent from Donna's I Pad. Follow me on twitter @donnabrazile That year, Brazile also apparently promised in an email to a Clinton surrogate that she would "send a few more" questions along as well. Brazile vehemently denied feeding the Clinton campaign any CNN questions, even waxing indignant and claiming that she was a victim of Christian persecution during a particularly heated exchange with then-Fox News host Megyn Kelly, who pressed Brazile about the accusations. Despite her caterwauling, Brazile resigned from CNN just a few days later. Donald Trump ultimately prevailed in the 2016 presidential election, and by March 2017, Brazile publicly admitted that she had, in fact, given Clinton's team the debate questions. "In October, a subsequent release of emails revealed that among the many things I did in my role as a Democratic operative and D.N.C. Vice Chair prior to assuming the interim D.N.C. Chair position was to share potential town hall topics with the Clinton campaign," she wrote in an article published by Time. "My job was to make all our Democratic candidates look good, and I worked closely with both campaigns to make that happen," she continued. "But sending those emails was a mistake I will forever regret." Chris Wallace blocks Trump from asking Biden about son Hunter Chris Wallace has spent the past two years of his storied journalistic career floundering about at CNN. He joined the network in early 2022 and was supposed to be the star host of CNN+, the network's streaming service that was launched and canceled within just a month. But in fall 2020, Wallace was still with Fox News, the network that had been his home for more than 15 years. In late September that year, Wallace moderated a debate between then-President Donald Trump and current President Joe Biden. Trump was bombastic, repeatedly attempting to put Biden on the defensive about his son Hunter's involvement with Burisma and Ukraine. 'Mr. Vice President, you get the final word.' Biden repeatedly stammered that his son had done nothing wrong and all the accusations against him had been "discredited," assertions that have since been proven false. The federal government even introduced Hunter Biden's infamous "laptop from hell" into evidence against him in his recent trial, noting that it had been authenticated as previously belonging to Hunter Biden. Yet back in 2020, Joe Biden insisted that his son had been unfairly maligned, and Wallace seemed to help shield Biden from Trump's relentless attacks. "The mayor of Moscow's wife gave your son three and a half million dollars. What did he do to deserve it?" Trump asked Biden. "It's not true. None of that is true," Biden stammered. As Trump continued hammering Biden about the accusations about Hunter, Wallace repeatedly ordered Trump to back off. "Let him answer," Wallace interjected, though the cross-talk continued. After another minute or so, Wallace told Biden: "Mr. Vice President, you get the final word." Biden then immediately replied, "Well, it's hard to get any word in with this clown." Biden then pivoted, throwing out unspecified accusations about Trump's family members and attempting to talk about the American people, but Trump tried to steer the conversation back toward Hunter and Ukraine. At that point, Wallace ended the discussion. When Trump asked rhetorically whether he could continue his line of questioning, Wallace raised his voice and replied, "The answer to the question is no." Wallace then demanded that the debate move on to another segment. Though he haphazardly requested that both participants stop interrupting one another, Wallace took particular aim at Trump. "I'm appealing to you, sir, to do that." When Trump asked about Biden's behavior, Wallace retorted: "Well, frankly, you've been doing more interrupting." Now, nearly four years later, Wallace views that debate as having sealed the election for Biden. "I actually think Donald Trump lost the presidency in that debate by his performance," Wallace said on an appearance on CNN's "The Source with Kaitlan Collins." "He dropped about four or five points. He never regained it." Wallace also asserted that Trump "interrupted Joe Biden or me 145 times in 90 minutes," a statement that seems to situate himself with Biden and in opposition to Trump. Wallace will not be hosting the debate on Thursday. Instead, the network has tapped for the role Wallace's colleague, Jake Tapper, who has repeatedly compared Trump to Adolf Hitler and characterized his presidency as a "nightmare." Like Blaze News?

Right after Julian Assange — founder of WikiLeaks who’s responsible for one of the biggest government leaks in U.S. history — took a plea deal that resulted in his freedom, the entire archive of 20,000 leaked DNC emails suddenly disappeared. Coincidence? Glenn Beck thinks not. Could This WikiLeaks ‘Server Error’ Be Connected to Julian Assange’s Secret Plea Deal? youtu.be “My Spidey senses are tingling,” he says. How is it possible that someone who “just plead guilty to espionage” walks away a free man? “Espionage is a really big deal,” says Glenn, adding that the crime “can actually carry a death penalty,” making Assange’s plea deal look remarkably “magnanimous.” While Biden, per his typical character, has denied having anything to do with Assange’s freedom, Glenn finds it “hard to believe,” considering the deal “was made in secret.” According to a report by the New York Times, “A secret hearing paved the way for [Assange’s] release. In the end, the choreographed, multinational dance that led to his release took place behind closed doors at a secret bail hearing in London last Thursday, according to British officials.” If that wasn’t suspicious enough, “The X account @endwokeness noticed something odd early, early this morning ... all 20,000 leaked DNC emails have just been removed from Wikileaks,” which they speculate “is part of the deal with Biden's DOJ.” “My team did verify that while other hack archives on WikiLeaks are still up, including Hillary Clinton's emails, when you click on the DNC archive, it does produce a server error,” says Glenn, showing the white screen with “Internal Server Error” displayed at the top. “Is this proof the DOJ coerced Assange to cover up their embarrassing secrets in exchange for his freedom?” asks Glenn. What do you think? Let us know in the comments below.

The panel on "The Source with Kaitlan Collins" Wednesday night vocalized their disbelief after Chris Wallace said the Trump campaign had promised that former President Donald Trump will be respectful during tonight's debate with President Joe Biden.Wallace moderated the first debate between Trump and Biden in 2020 when he was still with Fox News. Trump, going with an aggressive style, interrupted Biden and Wallace multiple times during the debate. Wallace, who is now with CNN, told the panel tonight's event will show whether Trump learned from that first debate."The question for tomorrow night is: Has he learned his lesson? I’ve talked to a lot of people in the top echelons of his staff. They say he finally understands how badly he did in the 2020 debate, and the two words that are coming out you don’t usually hear from the Trump camp are 'nice' and 'respectful.' He intends to be both," Wallace explained.His comments were laughed and scoffed at by some of the other panel members.'There are concerns with how much of a debate will be able to take place with such heavy-handedness from CNN ...'"No, I'm telling you, he says the night may devolve the way it will, but he very much intends not to make the same mistake," Wallace insisted, prompting more laughter. CNN panel laughs after campaign promises Trump will be respectful during the debate www.youtube.com To drastically reduce the number of interruptions, CNN laid out how the microphone system will work.Each podium has two green lights. When the lights are off, that means the microphone is off. Even if one of the candidates starts to speak while his microphone is off, the microphone that is on can barely pick up the other person speaking, as the podiums are set far apart.Both campaigns were briefed on the system and agreed to it.There are concerns with how much of a debate will be able to take place with such heavy-handedness from CNN and the anti-Trump biases from the moderators. CNN personalities continue to show their bias against Trump leading up to the highly anticipated event. For example, CNN's Kasie Hunt asked a top Biden campaign aide if Biden should even shake Trump's hand at the start.Like Blaze News?
