Everybody is waiting on baited breath for new polling now that the DNC is over and everyone is looking for a Kamala Harris bounce. Unfortunately, for her, there isn't one! Donald Trump has won every single 2024 election matchup we have put out, and it might all go downhill for Kamala Harris.

The victim was knocked down and brutally kicked and beaten to within an inch of his life! The gang then casually wandered away.
Apparently, this gang is probably trying to establish firm boundaries for its dominion. Viciously attacking pedestrians is equivalent to urinating in an effort to mark its territory.
“On Thursday, the NYPD arrested two minors in connection to the July attack.
Two boys, ages 13 and 14, were charged with assault with intent to cause physical injury, according to silive.com.”
Of NYC’s five Boroughs, Stanton Island is considered the safest, but not anymore! Rampant violent crime, so endemic to NYC’s other four Boroughs, has now spread to embrace this mostly residential community.
Lessons:
1) The “illusion of safety”
This vicious, unprovoked attack took place in the middle of a sunny day, in a “gun-free” school zone, and within a quiet, residential area.
Reputation and symbolism (e.g., “safety zones”) protect no one!
2) “When you leave them alone, they’ll leave you alone” represents a self-deceptive fantasy!
These vicious, murderous [possibly illegal-alien] gangs know no limits, do not fear the “authorities,” have no compunction about randomly maiming/murdering anyone they choose, and respect no boundaries (particularly symbolic ones).
Too many honest, decent, productive citizens believe their personal respectability should, and does, magically protect them from harm.
Nonsense, as we see!
3) “Retreat, and they’ll let you go.”
More nonsense!
The victim did his best to disengage and run away. The gang overtook him, chased him down, and physically attacked him, in unison.
NYC’s five Boroughs (Bronx, Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, and Stanton Island) were united into one City (NYC) in 1898. At the time, Stanton Island did not want to join (they still don’t), and their inclusion can probably be described as a “hostile takeover.”

In a press conference this past Tuesday, President Trump read from two of the Crime Prevention Center Research Center’s latest research reports. One report shows how violent crime fell by 17 percent during the Trump administration and then soared by 43 percent under Biden. A second report shows how law enforcement in the U.S. has collapsed. We show how the drop in arrest rates over the last few years from 2020 to 2022 is without precedent, and that is particularly true for the largest cities.
By the way, I got to talk to President Trump for a few minutes when he traveled to Bozeman, Montana, on August 9th. 2024. He told me he appreciated my research on crime, gun control, and vote fraud. After the assassination attempt, I was a little concerned about what impact that might have on Trump’s views on gun control, but my brief meeting with me gave me confidence that his views hadn’t changed.
In these recent speeches, Trump stated:
“And we had a couple of instances last night where things were mentioned. So I got it. Did crime rise under Trump and fall under Biden? They say it rose under Trump and and they go, "No, the opposite is true. Take a look at this here. It said, Is it true? Did crime rise under Trump and fall under Biden? No. Comma, the opposite is true. This was a study group that went out and didn't care, they did the numbers and there was another one that was a historical comparison of the collapse of law enforcement in US cities, the drop in arrest rates over the last few years is without precedent. Lowest arrest rates we’ve ever seen. They don’t arrest people anymore.” Transcript provided by ABC News, August 20, 2024.
In President Trump’s presentation on Tuesday, August 20th, 2024, in Michigan, he read from two recent Crime Prevention Center Research posts. Trump referenced our research on how violent crime fell under Trump, rose under Biden, and law enforcement collapsed over the last few years.
Did crime rise under Trump and Fall under Biden? No, the Opposite is True.
A Historical Comparison of the Collapse of Law Enforcement in US Cities. The Drop in Arrest Rates over the Last Few Years is without Precedent.
Here is yet another example of Democrats falsely claiming that crime has dropped under Biden. If they claimed REPORTED crime fell, they would at least have a credible claim.
Violent crime has dropped to its lowest level in more than 50 years.
And crime will keep coming down when we put a prosecutor in the Oval Office—instead of a convicted felon.
— Joe Biden (@JoeBiden) August 20, 2024
Trump: “her administration’s crime statistics show she’s presided over a 43% increase in violent crime. These are all government numbers, 43% increase in violent crime. I bet the people behind me don’t have anything like that. It just gets better. It doesn’t get worse, including a 58% increase in rape, 89% increase in aggravated assault, and a 56% increase in robbery. The crime in America, the fact is, is out of control.”
The numbers cited by Trump here were also from the NCVS that our report discussed.
Here are statements by Kamala Harris from 2020 where she strongly recommended taking funding from the police.

How Kamala Harris will do on foreign policy and war. How Vladimir Putin, Xi Jinping and Kim Jung Un will wipe the floor with her.

An Israeli hostage being held captive by Hamas was rescued by the Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) from a tunnel beneath southern Gaza on Tuesday, according to the IDF.
Qaid Farhan Alkadi, 52, who was taken by the terrorist organization on Oct. 7th, was found in a tunnel in Mahrat during a “complex rescue operation,” according to the Israeli military.
Alkadi, a father of 11 from the Bedouin Arab Community, was rescued by IDF soldiers from the 13th Fleet Unit, 401st Brigade, as well as Yalam and Shin Bet fighters, the military said.
The full details of Alkadi’s rescue were not immediately clear, with the IDF and Israel Security Agency, claiming in a statement on Tuesday that further details could not be released “due to considerations of the safety of our hostages, the security of our forces, and national security.”
The organization stated that Alkadi was in stable medical condition and was being transferred for medical checks at a hospital.
Israel’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs shared a video on X showing family members running to see Alkadi at a hospital.
Alkadi was taken by Hamas from Mivtahim, which is near where he worked as a guard at a packing factory in Kibbutz Magen, according to the Times of Israel.
Alkadi’s rescue “was part of the IDF’s daring and courageous activities conducted deep inside the Gaza Strip,” Defense Minister Yoav Gallant said.
Meanwhile, Hamas is suspected of holding 104 of the original 251 hostages who were taken from Israel during the October 7th terrorist attack, which includes the bodies of 34 victims confirmed dead by the IDF.
“We are doing everything to save all the abductees. "IDF and Shin Bet forces demonstrate courage, determination and initiative in complex operations in the field,” IDF chief of staff Herzi Halevi said Tuesday.
Additionally, the Hostage Families Forum issued a statement celebrating Alkadi’s rescue but reminded everyone of the rest of the remaining hostages being held by Hamas.
“He endured 326 days in captivity,” the group said.
“Qaid’s return home is nothing short of miraculous. But we must remember: military operations alone cannot free the remaining … hostages, who have suffered 326 days of abuse and terror. A negotiated deal is the only way forward.”
According to the Jerusalem Post, Tuesday’s rescue was the fourth successful rescue operation to extract Israeli hostages from the Gaza Strip.
Furthermore, Alkadi was the first hostage to be rescued from one of Gaza’s tunnel networks, with all the other live hostages rescued from above ground.
For now, cease-fire talks between Israel and Hamas in Cairo have ended again without a resolution over the weekend.
The talks also included CIA Director William Burns and David Barnea, the head of Israel’s Mossad intelligence agency.
