Just hours after independent presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. announced his running mate‚ former President Donald Trump slammed Kennedy‚ calling him “the most radical Left candidate in the race.” In a Tuesday announcement‚ Kennedy chose Nicole Shanahan‚ a lawyer and Democratic donor‚ to be his vice presidential running mate. Shanahan supported President Joe Biden’s 2020 campaign against Trump and also donated $150‚000 to the campaign of leftist Los Angeles County District Attorney George Gascon. Kennedy’s VP choice cements his position as a “radical Left Democrat‚” according to Trump‚ but the former president believes the Kennedy/Shanahan ticket will be good for his campaign and hurt Biden. “RFK Jr. is the most Radical Left Candidate in the race‚ by far. He’s a big fan of the Green New Scam‚ and other economy killing disasters. I guess this would mean he is going to be taking votes from Crooked Joe Biden‚ which would be a great service to America‚” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “His running mate‚ Nicole Shanahan‚ is even more ‘Liberal’ than him‚ if that’s possible‚” Trump added. “Kennedy is a Radical Left Democrat‚ and always will be!!! It’s great for MAGA‚ but the Communists will make it very hard for him to get on the Ballot. Expect him‚ and her‚ to be indicted any day now‚ probably for Environmental Fraud! He is Crooked Joe Biden’s Political Opponent‚ not mine. I love that he is running!” Kennedy praised Shanahan’s expertise on technology and health issues‚ saying in his announcement‚ “She has spent the last decade relying on neural networks‚ artificial intelligence‚ and cutting edge science to identify abuses in our government.” “She understands that the health of every American is a national security issue and a national security risk‚” the independent candidate added. “Her work has proven time and again that health drives our economy and it is the foundation of our mental health‚ our national happiness‚ our ability to lead the world and innovation and prosperity and at peace.” Kennedy‚ the son of Sen. Robert F. Kennedy and nephew of President John F. Kennedy‚ launched his presidential campaign as a Democrat before switching to an independent. Kennedy slammed the Democratic Party‚ saying it has merged into one with the Biden campaign‚ leaving no room for a challenger to run against the president. The independent candidate has focused much of his campaign on challenging the federal government’s health policies‚ especially regarding its COVID vaccine push. Kennedy has also billed himself as “arguably the leading environmentalist in the country.” He is currently polling around 10% nationally in a 5-way race between him‚ Trump‚ Biden‚ Green Party candidate Jill Stein‚ and independent candidate Cornel West‚ according to the RealClearPolitics polling average.

Recently‚ the Kennedy campaign secured spots on the ballots in Arizona and Georgia‚ two vital swing states that Biden won in 2020 after Trump was victorious over Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton in each state in 2016.

A Tennessee music venue is hosting a “Trans Day of Vengeance” concert just days after the one-year anniversary of the deadly shooting at The Covenant School‚ in which a transgender-identifying woman killed three children and three adults‚ apparently out of ideological fury. A flyer promoted by several bands says that the Graveyard Gallery in Murfreesboro is hosting the concert on March 31‚ and using it to raise money for a group that provides gender reassignment surgery. The shooting occurred on March 27‚ 2023‚ at the Christian school in Nashville‚ less than an hour away. The party comes with Nashville schools in high alert because of the potential for violence on the anniversary of the shooting. The shooting last year came as radical transgender activists rallied for a “Trans Day of Vengeance” on the same day that year‚ with the Trans Radical Activist Network (TRAN) saying‚ “The time is now‚ enough is enough.” President Joe Biden in 2021 recognized March 31 as the “Transgender Day of Visibility‚” which trans activists changed to “vengeance.” Whether that Day of Vengeance may have spurred the timing of the child-killer’s act is unknown because authorities have refused to release her manifesto. The flyer for this year’s event says “all proceeds will be donated to Point of Pride” and that the bands include Dumpster Pussy‚ Dru The Drifter + The Back Alley Hookers‚ Boy Clothes‚ Spinning Lodge‚ and the Oitakus. It says the event is presented by Boro Fondo‚ a “music‚ art‚ and bike fest” that is advertising the show and asking attendees to “bring new or used chest binders to donate to Point of Pride.” “Point of Pride mails gender affirming garments to trans and gender-diverse people who cannot afford or otherwise access them‚” a poster on Boro Fondo’s Instagram page says. “Shipping is free. Point of Pride provides funding towards surgery‚ hormone replacement therapy‚ and permanent hair removal services.” CLICK HERE TO GET THE DAILYWIRE+ APP Boro Fondo and Graveyard Gallery did not return requests for comment. Nor did Spinning Lodge or the Oitakus. TRAN’s website for last year’s event included violent rhetoric‚ quoting trans activist Sylvia Rivera who said‚ “I remember when someone threw a Molotov cocktail‚ I thought‚ ‘My god‚ the revolution is here.'” The 2023 event in Washington‚ D.C. was cancelled at the last minute — not out of respect for the slain children‚ but because “the safety of our trans community is first priority” and there was a “flood of raw hatred directed towards the trans community after the Tennessee shooting.” Transgender activists aim to get “vengeance” for what they imagine is a “genocide” against them. However‚ that genocide does not exist‚ according to Department of Justice statistics. Transgenders were the victims of 271 hate crimes in 2021‚ most of them minor‚ with the exception of two murders and two rapes. Seventy were “intimidation‚” and 37 were vandalism. Half of the offenders were black. Based on the FBI data‚ a black person’s chance of being the victim of a hate crime in a given year is 98 in a million‚ a Jewish person stands a 109 in a million chance. The likelihood of a transgender person is less than half of that‚ a rate similar to the one for Muslims. (Photo by BRENDAN SMIALOWSKI/AFP via Getty Images) The national TRAN group‚ which is not known to be affiliated with the Murfreesboro concert‚ was led by an individual who “came out as a lesbian at age 29 and as a transgender man at age 50‚” as well as another who said  “What motivated me to start TRAN was the fact I was bullied to the point where I attempted to end my own life. The person that bullied me was a fellow member of the LGBTIA+.” The Virginia chapter was led by Bo Belotti‚ who once worked for Elizabeth Guzman‚ a Democrat Virginia state lawmaker.

Laying calmly with arms outstretched‚ this adorable kitten wants a hug. The mother cat seems disinterested and ignores the precious little tyke. Then‚ with a scratch and a “Hmmmmph‚” Mom is off searching for other adventures. Meanwhile‚ the tiny tot is still waiting. The poor widdle bebbie needs a kitten hug! View this post on Instagram A post shared by Cats All Day (@cats.all.day) Much like human children‚ tiny kittens need hugs and affection. Cuddling a young kitten helps them to feel loved and safe. Kitten hugs also help with socialization as they grow. This is why it takes some feral cats some time to get accustomed to being handled by humans. They miss that early affection and socialization with humans. Kittens raised together also form bonds and will often cuddle with one another. Image from TikTok. Kittens and cats don’t confine their affection to humans and other cats. In a beautiful image shared on Reddit‚ a tiny kitten wraps its paws around an even tinier puppy. Image from Reddit. Another unlikely duo is Luka and Huckleberry. Luka is a yellow Labrador who weighs more than 80 pounds. Huckleberry is a tiny cat who first joined the family at around 4 pounds. The tiny cat had to have her right paw amputated at the shoulder. After her surgery‚ Luka was gentle and cuddly. She quickly adapted to her new tripod lifestyle and became more active. Luka lets the one-armed biscuit maker get busy without a complaint. He even lets her win some of their wrestling matches! This adorable pair give each other plenty of cuddles. Image from YouTube. Sun and Moon are absolutely adorable and super cuddly. The two tiny tabby kittens are cuddling during a nap and couldn’t be any cuter! @lufluffy__ Sun and moon #catslove #kittens #cute #catsoftiktok #BestFriends #cuddles ♬ My Love Mine All Mine – Mitski Understanding The Importance Of Kitten Hugs Kittens hug for many reasons. They hug to show affection‚ seek security‚ steal your warmth‚ keep you in place (see next paragraph)‚ or stop you from doing something. Kittens and cats understand our feelings. They know when their humans are happy or sad. Offering them cuddles and hugs helps both of you. There is an unspoken rule when a kitten or cat perches in your lap. You cannot get up or move until they move. When your kitten or cat “keeps you in place‚” even the slightest move may offend them. So the rule is that you must not move. Ever. Remember that simple rule: you and your kitten will have a happy life together! Please share this if you enjoyed learning about why kittens hug.
