Battleground state under fire for scheduling voter registration site to go dark same day as Butler rally

[ad_1]


Conservatives blasted Pennsylvania’s Department of State this month for scheduling a system maintenance update to its voter registration website the same day former President Trump returned to Butler, where he survived an assassination attempt in July.The operation would have taken the site offline for several hours during the same time frame the Trump campaign expected to register voters. The department, however, moved the window of time for maintenance to later in the night amid an early outcry. »The PA State Department voter registration website will be unavailable on Saturday, October 5th, the day that President Trump will be triumphantly returning to the site of the assassination attempt in Butler County, PA. W/ all eyes on PA, the site will be down. Coincidence? » GOP activist Scott Pressler posted to Instagram on Thursday. Fox News Digital reviewed archived data from the Pennsylvania Voter Registration website and found that it issued a disclaimer to voters that the website would be unavailable on Oct. 5 beginning at 6 p.m. « This website will undergo scheduled system maintenance and be unavailable Saturday, October 5 from 6 p.m. until 12 a.m. We thank you for your understanding., » the Pennsylvania Voter Registration website stated on Oct. 1, an archived page reviewed by Fox News Digital shows. TRUMP SUPPORTER ELON MUSK OFFERS MASSIVE HOURLY PAY TO THOSE WORKING TO INCREASE VOTER TURNOUTTrump announced on Sept. 25 that he would make a historic return to Butler on Oct. 5, months after he was shot in the side of the head by a would-be assassin on July 13. The Pennsylvania Voter Registration website announced its scheduled maintenance sometime between Sept. 30 to Oct. 1, archived data for the site reviewed by Fox Digital shows. Republican National Committee co-chair Lara Trump and Pressler sounded the alarm on the scheduled maintenance earlier this month, questioning the timing and slamming the move as election « interference. » « Wow, they aren’t even trying to hide their blatant interference – appreciate you flagging, @scottpresler – @gop legal is on it and formally requesting the ‘system maintenance’ is moved to a different time, » Lara Trump posted to Facebook on Thursday, accompanied by a screenshot of an Instagram post from Pressler asking if the timing of the maintenance was just a « coincidence. » TRUMP’S RETURN TO BUTLER, PENNSYLVANIA, SITE OF FIRST ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT, IS ‘GUTSY,’ SUPPORTERS SAYArchived records of the website show that Pennsylvania officials updated the page on Oct. 3 – the same day Pressler and Lara Trump publicly posted about the timing of the maintenance – to reflect that the site would undergo maintenance at 10 p.m. to 4 a.m., instead of 6 p.m. until midnight. Trump was scheduled to take the stage in Butler at 5 p.m. Saturday, meaning the site would have gone dark as he rallied his base and encouraged residents to register to vote. Pressler joined Human Events’ Jack Posobiec about the matter last week, taking a victory lap that the time was changed to later in the night, following the rally, but added he’s still not « 100 percent happy » with the timing of the schedule maintenance. Pressler noted that website updates are typically scheduled for the dead of night, when users are less likely to use the platform. « It was clear that the Pennsylvania Department of State was engaging in election interference, trying to stop all of this national attention from translating into new voter registrations, » Pressler said.ARDENT TRUMP SUPPORTERS WEIGH IN ON SAFETY AT HISTORIC PENNSYLVANIA RALLYLara Trump also celebrated how the scheduled maintenance moved to later in the night, sharing on Facebook Thursday, « And just like that, we got PA to move it. Great example of what happens when citizens demand fairness. » Fox News Digital reached out to the Pennsylvania Department of State on Sunday for comment on the matter, but did not immediately receive a reply. The website is working as of Sunday morning, and no longer includes the disclaimer for a scheduled maintenance outage. Fox News Digital did not document the site shutting down for maintenance from Saturday evening into Sunday morning, though screenshots of the site posted to social media show the site’s reported error page for maintenance. TRUMP ANNOUNCES OUTDOOR PENNSYLVANIA RALLY TO ‘FINISH OUR SPEECH’ AT SITE OF FIRST ASSASSINATION ATTEMPTA review of the Department of State’s social media shows the website has previously shut down for scheduled maintenance at odd hours during the day, including on June 29 from 1 p.m. to 9 p.m. the following day. The historic rally in Butler drew thousands as Trump made a return to the same grounds where he was nearly killed, as well as short remarks from tech billionaire Elon Musk who stressed the importance of registering to vote. « I think it’s the most important election of our lifetime. This is no ordinary election. The other side wants to take away your freedom of speech. They want to take away your right to bear arms… They want to take away your right to vote effectively, » Musk told the crowd on Saturday. Musk repeatedly encouraged the crowds to get everyone in their social circles and beyond to register and vote come Election Day. « And honestly, you want to just be a pest. Just be a pest to everyone. You know, people on the street everywhere, » he said. « Fight, fight, fight, vote, vote, vote, » Musk added, referring to how Trump shouted « fight, fight, fight » to the crowds after he was shot in the ear in July. Get the latest updates from the 2024 campaign trail, exclusive interviews and more at our Fox News Digital election hub.

Exiled crown prince says US, allies would benefit from Iranian regime change: ‘End to all these problems’

[ad_1]


An Iranian regime change would mean an end to many global problems, exiled Crown Prince HRH Reza Pahlavi told Maria Bartiromo as he doubled down on his criticism on Sunday. »[I care about] the welfare of my compatriots. I don’t want to see them yet again suffer from the consequences of this conflict, » he said, drawing a distinction between the regime and the Iranian people. »The ultimate solution is for this regime to no longer be there, and the best opportunity exists right now, not only for our friends in the region, but for the whole world to understand that a change of regime in Iran would put an end to all of these problems, so we don’t have to worry about maritime traffic and the oil prices going up because there is going to be some Houthis striking commercial ships or everything else that you have there. The nuclear threat, the proliferation of this ideology, period, the end of this regime would mean an end to all these problems. »EXILED CROWN PRINCE OF IRAN DEMANDS REGIME CHANGE AFTER ISRAEL ATTACK: THIS ISN’T OUR WAR, ‘IT’S KHAMENEI’S’Pahlavi has been a prominent critic of the Iranian Islamist regime and its « warmongering, » which he insists will eventually contribute to the nation’s unsustainable financial expenditure, leading to what he described as « economic shock. »He has also been outspokenly critical of the Biden administration for allegedly appeasing Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei after Iran’s unprecedented attack on Israel last October, particularly through avenues such as the return to the Iran nuclear deal and readiness to pump billions of dollars into Iran’s cash-starved economy.On a similar note, Bartiromo implied the upcoming election may have a significant foreign policy implication in the region.IRAN’S EXILED CROWN PRINCE CALLS OUT BIDEN’S WEAK POLICIES, SAYS ISLAMIC REGIME ‘EMBOLDENED’To that end, Pahlavi replied, « I’m not isolating Washington only, I’m talking about Europe as well. If you are focused yet again on whether or not we can appease this regime and cut a deal with them and negotiate with them and, in a way, expect a behavior change from this regime, that simply means that we have yet to understand the DNA and nature of the system, as opposed to, saying our best allies are the people of Iran. » »Why don’t we help them for a change and let them have a chance? »Fox News’ Yael Halon contributed to this report.

Yankees, Royals make MLB history in wild first game of ALDS

[ad_1]


The New York Yankees knocked off the Kansas City Royals, 6-5, in the opening game of the American League Division Series on Saturday, but it sure didn’t come easily. It came historically, though.The Yankees have notched plenty of feats in the club’s illustrious history, but what happened Saturday was a first. It was the first postseason game in Major League Baseball history that had five lead changes, according to the Elias Sports Bureau.Tommy Pham got the Kansas City Royals on the board first with a sac fly in the second inning, but New York’s Gleyber Torres responded with a two-run homer in the third. CLICK HERE FOR MORE SPORTS COVERAGE ON FOXNEWS.COMMJ Melendez returned the favor with a two-run blast of his own, giving Kansas City the lead right back.The Yankees walked twice with the bases loaded in the fifth inning to regain the lead, but the Yanks gave it right back thanks to sloppy play and weak contact that found holes.Jazz Chisholm stole second in the seventh inning and the Yankees took advantage, with Alex Verdugo singling to score the speedy Chisholm, putting the Yanks up, 6-5.It was the fifth, and final, lead change of the ballgame — the most-ever in a postseason game.Luke Weaver got the four-out save for New York, retiring Michael Massey, batting champ Bobby Witt (who would win MVP had it not been for Aaron Judge), and Vinnie Pasquantino in the ninth.METS’ MAGIC CONTINUES IN NLDS WITH 5 RUNS IN EIGHTH FOR ANOTHER COMEBACK VICTORYThere is one cause for concern on the New York side, though. Despite his 58 homers, 144 RBI, .322 average, and 1.159 OPS, Judge went 0-for-4 with three strikeouts, lowering his lifetime postseason average to a meager .206 — he has struck out in more than one-third of his postseason plate appearances.New York also went 2-for-13 with runners in scoring position. The American League is off on Sunday, so both teams will be back on Monday for Game 2. It will be Cole Ragans (3.14 ERA) for Kansas City, and New York will return with Carlos Rodon (3.96 ERA).Follow Fox News Digital’s sports coverage on X, and subscribe to the Fox News Sports Huddle newsletter.

77 days: Kamala Harris has yet to do formal press conference since emerging as Democratic nominee

[ad_1]


Vice President Kamala Harris has gone 77 days as the presumptive, and now, official Democratic nominee for president without holding an official press conference. Trump has held six news conferences where he took questions from the media since the beginning of August, including another on Friday after meeting with Georgia Gov. Brian Kemp about hurricane relief efforts.President Biden also held a news conference in the White House press briefing room on Friday, where he joked about getting back into the 2024 race.BERNIE SANDERS SAYS HARRIS DROPPING FAR-LEFT POLICIES ‘IN ORDER TO WIN THE ELECTION’Harris has stepped up her interviews in recent weeks, including doing radio hits and a solo sit-down with a Philadelphia TV station. She also spoke to MSNBC’s Stephanie Ruhle and she made time to hang out with supporter Oprah Winfrey last month at a star-studded campaign event. This week she taped an interview on the « Call Her Daddy » podcast.But as for when she’ll actually do a formal press conference as a candidate, that day may never come, at least while she’s still a candidate.Conservative Radio Libre host Jorge Bonilla feels Harris should do a press conference but said it’s almost « irrelevant » because she continues to get a pass. HARRIS DODGES QUESTION ON LOWERING PRICES BY DESCRIBING ‘MIDDLE-CLASS’ ROOTS: NEIGHBORS ‘PROUD OF THEIR LAWN’ »She is highly unlikely to do a press conference because the media have enabled and encouraged her ‘plexiglass basement’ strategy, wherein she preserves the illusion of being out there while remaining wholly inaccessible to the press and therefore unaccountable, » Bonilla told Fox News Digital.In her interview in Philadelphia, her answer citing her middle-class upbringing when asked about specifics of her economic policy drew sharp criticism.BARBARA WALTERS WOULD EXPECT KAMALA HARRIS TO DO INTERVIEWS, AUTHOR SAYS: ‘PART OF THE JOB OF BEING PRESIDENT' »You know, I grew up in a neighborhood of folks who were very proud of their lawn, » she said. « And I was raised to believe and to know that all people deserve dignity, and that we as Americans have a beautiful character. You know, we have ambitions and aspirations and dreams, but not everyone necessarily has access to the resources that can help them fuel those dreams and ambitions. « So when I talk about building an opportunity economy, it is very much with the mind of investing in the ambitions and aspirations and the incredible work ethic of the American people and creating opportunity for people, for example, to start a small business. »Fox News Digital’s Paul Steinhauser contributed to this report.

Paris Hilton speaks out about her ADHD diagnosis: ‘It’s a superpower’

[ad_1]


Paris Hilton opened up about being diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) and how she has come to see the chronic health condition as her « superpower. »In an essay for Teen Vogue, the 43-year-old reality TV star reflected on how she struggled with the symptoms of ADHD before receiving her diagnosis later in life. »Growing up, I was always told that I was too energetic, too distracted, too talkative — just too everything, » Hilton wrote at the beginning of her op-ed. »My constant need for stimulation, paired with a school system that failed to accommodate how I naturally learn, ultimately led to my time in the Troubled Teen Industry, which was apparently meant to ‘fix’ me, » she continued.Hilton has previously spoken out about how her rebelliousness as a teenager led her parents to send her a series of residential facilities and treatment programs for children with behavioral problems, addiction struggles and mental health issues. At 17-years-old, she spent 11 months at the Provo Canyon School in Utah, where she alleged that she was sexually abused.PARIS HILTON TAKES HEAT FROM PARENTING POLICE AFTER PUTTING SON’S LIFE VEST ON INCORRECTLY: ‘OOPS’Looking back at that period of her life in her Teen Vogue essay, Hilton wrote, « I wish someone had asked, ‘What’s really going on with her?' » »Instead, I spent years feeling misunderstood, punished for the way my brain worked, » she added. « It wasn’t until much later in life that I discovered what was really happening: I had ADHD. »Hilton went on to note that ADHD is often a « silent struggle » for girls and women, whose diagnoses are frequently missed according to studies.The socialite recalled that she initially felt uncertainty about how to navigate her own diagnosis. »At first, being diagnosed felt like a label — something that boxed me in, defining me by what I couldn’t do, by what made me different, » she wrote. « It’s something I used to keep hidden, worried about how it might be perceived. Would people think I was too scattered, too unfocused, or incapable of success? »She continued, « But those challenges are just one side of the coin. The other side reveals something beautiful: creativity, passion, resilience and a mind that thinks in bold, unexpected ways. » »ADHD isn’t a limitation; it’s a superpower. It’s my secret weapon in a world that often tells us to play it safe. »Hilton explained that many of her personal and professional achievements were due to how ADHD affects her thought processes.LIKE WHAT YOU’RE READING? CLICK HERE FOR MORE ENTERTAINMENT NEWS »My brain doesn’t follow a straight line — it zigzags and explores uncharted territory, allowing me to break boundaries and stay ahead of the curve, » she wrote. « ADHD is the reason I’ve been able to anticipate trends, it’s given me the creativity to build an empire, the drive to keep pushing the limits, and the empathy to connect with people on a deeper level. » »One of the most powerful gifts of ADHD is the ability to hyper-focus on things I am passionate about, » Hilton continued. « When I’m interested in something, I can lose myself in it completely, going deeper than most people might. This ability has been the driving force behind many of my successes because I throw myself into every detail and obsess over a project for hours, losing track of time. Because my brain thrives on newness, on bold ideas, and on innovation, I see the world as full of possibilities, and I’ve learned to embrace that energy. » »But let’s be real: ADHD can also be overwhelming and exhausting because my mind is constantly buzzing with thoughts, ideas, and distractions, » « The Simple Life » alum admitted. « People often see the glamorous, successful side of me, but behind the scenes, there are days when the noise inside my head can be so loud that it’s difficult to find clarity. »Hilton shared that she has created systems and structures to help her manage her ADHD as well as surrounding herself with a supportive circle. « But even with these strategies, there are days when ADHD can feel like a storm that I have to navigate, and that’s okay, » Hilton wrote. « It’s part of the journey, and I’ve learned to give myself grace during those times. »CLICK HERE TO SIGN UP FOR THE ENTERTAINMENT NEWSLETTERThe model addressed the stigma around ADHD and neurodivergence, which she wrote « needs to change. » »We live in a world where we’re often expected to fit into boxes, to follow the rules, and to do things the way everyone else does. But my ADHD has taught me that the most magical things happen when you break free from those expectations, » she explained. « We need to stop labeling neurodivergent individuals as ‘disordered’ and start recognizing the unique gifts they bring, » Hilton added.Last month, Hilton released her album « Infinite Icon » — which was her first record since she made her musical debut with 2006’s « Paris. » »Infinite Icon » features a track titled « ADHD, » which she wrote in her essay is a « celebration of my journey and a message to others that ADHD is something to be embraced, not hidden. » Hilton also noted that her nonprofit 11:11 has partnered with Understood.org and other organizations to change the stigma around ADHD and provide resources for individuals with the disorder. »I want people, especially young women, to know that being different is beautiful, and your ‘flaws’ can actually be your greatest assets. I’ve faced challenges, sure, but ADHD has given me an inner strength and confidence that nothing can take away, » Hilton wrote. »To anyone out there who feels like they’re struggling with ADHD or any other challenge, I want you to know this: you are not alone, and you are not defined by your diagnosis. Embrace your differences, because they are what makes you unstoppable. »

Musk energizes Trump supporters at Butler rally, 3 months after assassination attempt on former president

[ad_1]


Tesla CEO Elon Musk made a memorable appearance at former President Trump’s campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, on Saturday – a rare appearance for the tech entrepreneur. Wearing a black « Make America Great Again » hat and a T-shirt reading « Occupy Mars, » Musk appeared on stage shortly after Trump made his own remarks. The rally was held at the same site where Trump was shot by gunman Thomas Matthew Crooks on July 13.Although Musk has become a vocal Trump supporter, the speech marked the first time that the tech entrepreneur stumped at a major presidential rally. Musk confirmed that he would be at the rally on social media this week. « I want to say what an honor it is to be here and, you know, the true test of someone’s character is how they behave under fire, right? » Musk said at the beginning of his remarks. « And we had one president who couldn’t climb a flight of stairs, and another who was fist pumping after getting shot. »TRUMP VISITS WISCONSIN TOWN SHAKEN BY MIGRANT CRIME: ‘CROSSED KAMALA’S WIDE-OPEN BORDER’Musk, considered one of the most influential people in the world, also encouraged the audience to « vote, vote, vote. » »Just be a pest to everyone, » he said to the audience. « You know, people on the street everywhere: Vote, vote, vote! » »Fight, fight, fight, vote, vote, vote, » Musk added. At one point, the X owner jumped excitedly.WALZ ROASTED AFTER DECLARING ‘WE CAN’T AFFORD FOUR MORE YEARS OF THIS’ AT RALLYTrump’s speech, which he opened with a roaring start by thanking the people of Pennsylvania and making a light joke about the attempt on his life in July with the line « And as I was saying… », was largely positive and uplifting, a departure from his normally acrid criticisms of his opponent, Vice President Kamala Harris. During the speech, the Republican candidate did make pointed remarks about his opponents who « maybe even tried to kill me. » »Above all, you deserve leadership in Washington that does not answer to the lobbyists, to the bureaucrats, or to the corrupt special interests, but answers only to you, the hardworking citizens of America, of which there are a lot of them, » Trump described. »We have a lot of them. We have a lot of them over the past eight years, those who want to stop us from achieving this future have slandered me, impeached me, indicted me, tried to throw me off the ballot, and who knows, maybe even tried to kill me, » the candidate continued. « But I’ve never stopped fighting for you. And I never will. »The Republican candidate then turned his attention to the immigration chart he had put up – the same one that was displayed when he was shot on July 13. »I love that chart, » Trump said. « I love that graph. Isn’t it a beautiful thing? » »But also beautiful because look at the number, that’s the day I left office, » he continued. « It was the lowest Border Patrol [apprehensions]…Today, it’s out of control. »Trump also held a moment for Corey Comperatore at 6:11 p.m., the exact time that Crooks began firing at the former president on July 13. Comperatore, a rally attendee and firefighter, was fatally wounded.Speaking at the beginning of his speech in Butler, Pennsylvania, Trump acknowledged Comperatore’s death and thanked his relatives for attending. »It is 6:11, 12 weeks to the minute, that the shooting began, » Trump said. « I would like to ask everyone to join me in a moment of silence. »An opera singer sang « Ave Maria » as Trump and the rally attendees paid their respects.
