Port strike: How much does the union boss leading the charge make?
Harold Daggett is leading the dockworkers' strike, demanding fairer compensation and protection from automation
By Taylor Penley FOXBusiness
FOX
Business correspondent Lydia Hu reports the latest on the dockworkers'
strike after speaking to International Longshoremen's Association
International President Harold J. Daggett.
The outspoken union leader behind gridlock at America's East and Gulf Coast ports took home more than $900,000 last
year, between a combined $728,000 salary from the International
Longshoremen's Association (ILA) and another $173,000 from ILA Local
1804-1 in North Bergen, New Jersey, data shows.
ILA
President Harold J. Daggett remains at the center of discussion over
the port strike that threatens to wound the U.S. economy with shortages
and price hikes if not resolved soon.
Gridlocked with the U.S.
Maritime Alliance (USMX) after a six-year-long contract expired at
midnight Tuesday, the thousands of ILA dockworkers launched the union's
first strike in nearly 50 years.

Their terms to reach an agreement are protection from port automation to prevent potential job loss and increased compensation.
Daggett,
who was elected president of the ILA in 2011, is now serving his fourth
four-year term after working more than 60 years in the industry.
Speaking to FOX Business' Lydia Hu on Tuesday, he doubled down on his demands on behalf of the laborers he represents.
"It's long overdue," he said of the strike.

"Things were rough back then [in 1977]. We went on strike for $0.80. The companies only made like 5 to $10 million, but since COVID
and before COVID 'til now, they're making billions and billions of
dollars. It's a whole different story, but they don't want to share it.
They'd rather see a fully automated terminal right here on the East
Coast so they can make more money. They're money-crazy," he added.
He emphasized the union is fighting for jurisdiction, health, wages and more.
Daggett was also named president emeritus
of the ILA Local 1804-1, where he served as president for 14 years
before stepping down in 2011, and from which he still receives a salary.
(What was going on the SAME time these people starting changing their genders and GOING CRAZY???
Oh Wait.... wasn't the CDC/World Health Org insisting on something? Hmmm)

EXCLUSIVE: “They Were
Talking About Trump, Which Got Her Upset” – Police Report Identifies
Transgender Attacker of Kari Lake’s Daughter as Rebecca Kimpel – Kimpel
Charged With Assault
by Jordan Conradson101 Comments
The Gateway Pundit has obtained a copy of the Arizona State
University Police report detailing assault charges against Rebecca
Kimpel, a transgender student who dumped his entire drink on Kari Lake’s
daughter while she was registering voters at Arizona State University.
The police report identifies the attacker as a female, but an Instagram account that links to Rebecca Kimpel’s YouTube page shows a video of the suspect, and he’s clearly a dude.
The Gateway Pundit reported on the incident last week during Turning
Point Action’s “Greek Voter Registration” event on campus at ASU. Lake’s
daughter, Ruby Halperin, was left soaked along with her papers for
registering voters.
Despite interfering with individuals' right to vote by intimidating
voters and volunteers registering voters, Rebecca was charged with one
count of assault.
Halperin told The Gateway Pundit, "I think it’s a total violation of
voter registration rights, and I believe it was an attempt to intimidate
those registering to vote that day."
The report states that the attacker, ASU film and production student
Rebecca Kimpel, admitted to the assault, telling officers, "They were
talking about Trump, which got her upset. She tossed a cup of soda at
the people around the booth and ran." While this was clearly a
politically motivated attack on Halperin, Arizona does not
recognize political affiliation as a protected class for hate crimes.
Therefore, the police wrote "None (no bias)" in the "Bias Motivation"
section of the report.
"Rebecca was cited and released for assault at the scene," per the report.
Upon further investigation, an X account under the username @hltler_dlsliker
was discovered to have the same name. The biography identifies the user
as a "filmmaker," and the user's location is Phoenix, Arizona.
In a post from Sunday, days after the incident, the attacker asks for help paying legal fees and provides a link to his PayPal account.
Another post
on the account reads, "I'm a broke trans woman." The post also mentions
a suspended account with the same username as Rebecca's Instagram page:
Netflix Cancellations Tripled After CEO Backed Harris
By Solange Reyner |
Monday, 30 September 2024 05:07 PM EDT
Netflix cancellations in the U.S. almost tripled
after the company's CEO and chairman, Reed Hastings, announced he was
backing Kamala Harris' bid for president, though most axed their
accounts because the streaming giant killed its basic plan, reports Bloomberg.
Customers canceled their subscription at a rate of 2.8% in July — higher than any other month since February.
Hastings endorsed Harris on July 22 after she officially became the Democrat nominee.
"Congrats to Kamala Harris — now it is time to win," Hastings wrote in a post on X.
A day later, he told The Information that he donated $7 million to a pro-Harris super PAC.
Trump supporters quickly urged people to drop the service alongside
the hashtag #CancelNetflix. Three days after Hastings' donation was
reported Netflix subscriptions dipped dramatically — it was the single
worst day for terminations in 2024, per Bloomberg.
Netflix on July 19 said it was removing its cheapest ad-free plan for subscribers in the U.S. and France

Hispanic Voters in 2024: A Transforming Bloc for Trump and the Republicans
Maria Herrera Mellado
Sep. 30, 2024 4:29 pm
3 min de lectura
Key data on Hispanic voters eligible in 2024 highlights the rapid
growth of this electorate. Since the 2020 presidential election, the
number of eligible Hispanic voters in the U.S. has increased by nearly 4
million. By 2024, an estimated 36.2 million Hispanics will be eligible
to vote, up from 32.3 million in 2020. This accounts for half of the
total growth in eligible voters nationwide during this period. Each
year, approximately 1.4 million Hispanic Americans turn 18, becoming
eligible to vote and significantly boosting the Hispanic voter base.
While Donald Trump saw increased Hispanic support in 2020, a majority
(59%) still voted for Joe Biden, according to a Pew Research Center
analysis. Historically, Hispanic voter turnout has lagged behind other
racial and ethnic groups, but their increasing numbers could shape
future elections. Projections from the U.S. Census Bureau show that the
Hispanic electorate continues to expand, with demographic data available
for in-depth analysis. This growing voting bloc will play a crucial
role in determining the outcome of the 2024 election and beyond. A
Quinnipiac national poll shows Trump leading among Hispanic voters with
52% compared to his opponent’s 44%.
Hispanics, a key voting demographic in the U.S., have traditionally
supported the Democratic Party.
However, recent elections have seen a
shift, with more Hispanics backing Republican candidates, including
Trump. Several factors may explain this trend and why it could continue
in 2024, potentially aiding Trump’s return to the White House.
Many Hispanic voters list the economy as their top priority, with
some believing that Republican policies are better for job creation, tax
cuts, and economic stability. During Trump’s presidency, some Hispanics
felt they benefited from strong economic growth and low unemployment,
which led to increased Republican support.
Social issues, including religion, abortion, and family values,
significantly influence the political views of many Hispanics. With a
large portion of the Hispanic population identifying as Catholic or
Evangelical Christian, these voters often align with the conservative
positions of the Republican Party, especially as the Democratic Party
adopts more progressive stances.
Some Hispanics feel alienated from the Democratic Party, viewing it
as overly focused on issues like climate change or identity politics,
which don’t resonate with their everyday concerns. Others feel that the
Democratic Party has taken their support for granted without delivering
on key issues such as immigration reform.
Trump’s appeal to working-class voters, including many Hispanics,
stems from his outsider status and willingness to challenge the
political establishment. His populist rhetoric, emphasis on economic
nationalism, and firm stance on border security resonate with Hispanic
voters who prioritize law and order or feel left behind by
globalization.

The Look On His Face Says It
All – Kamala Harris Speaks in Fake Accent to Black Podcaster as She
Recounts Partying at the Clubs (VIDEO)
by Cristina Laila617 Comments
Kamala Harris sat down for an interview with ‘All the Smoke’ podcast
hosts and former NBA players Stephen Jackson and Matt Barnes.
Harris spoke in a fake accent as she talked about racial identity.
“I’m really clear about who I am and if anybody else is not, they
need to go through their own level of therapy, that’s not my issue,”
Harris said.
Kamala Harris told the black podcast hosts that she bought a pork
roast after she found out that Biden dropped out of the 2024 race.
Her pandering is off the charts.
“Look, from the time the president called me and told me he wasn’t
running – everything was just in speedy, speedy motion and I was not
sleeping so well and that one morning…I had a few hours sleep… and I
just went out and got a pork roast and started marinating it,” Kamala
Harris said as she cackled.
Matt Barnes went along with Kamala Harris’s awkward story.
WATCH:
Kamala Harris didn’t really impress Stephen Jackson with her fake accent.
The look on his face said it all.
“My best friend from kindergarten is still one of my best friends.
Stacey Johnson! We used to go to the clubs in her father’s Seville,”
Kamala Harris cackled.

'He impregnated his kid's nanny': Psaki ripped after claiming Emhoff 'reshaped' masculinity
Doug Emhoff publicly admitted last month to having an affair during his first marriage
By
Emma Colton Fox News
Published
MSNBC
host Jen Psaki asked Second Gentleman Doug Emhoff about redefining the
view of masculinity by openly supporting his wife Vice President Kamala
Harris.
Social media critics are dragging second gentleman Doug Emhoff
for his previously admitted affair with his family’s nanny after he
joined MSNBC host Jen Psaki for an interview where he was lauded for
reshaping "the perception of masculinity."
"Psaki
to Doug Emhoff: ‘You reshaped the perception of masculinity’ PS: He
impregnated his kid's nanny," popular conservative X account End Wokeness posted Sunday.
The account was reacting to a snippet from Emhoff’s interview with Psaki, who previously served as President Biden’s White House press secretary before joining MSNBC, where Psaki heaped praise on Emhoff for reshaping masculinity.

"There
is also an important, interesting part about how people have talked
about your role is how your role has reshaped the perception of
masculinity," Psaki said. "I’m not sure you planned on that, but you are
an incredibly supportive spouse. Has that been an evolution for you? Do
you think that’s part of the role you might play as first gentleman?"
"It’s
funny. I’ve started to think a lot about this. I’ve always been like
this. My dad’s always been like this. To me, it’s the right thing to do,
support women. It is mutual with Kamala and I. We support each other,
we have each other’s back," Emhoff responded.
He added, "I’ve said many times when we lift up women, we support women, whether it’s pay equity, child care, family leave,
and all of these issues in this post-Dobbs hellscape. Women should not
be less than. Women should not have less rights and be treated
differently. That’s not the American way."
Clips of the exchange spread like wildfire on social media as critics
cited that just last month, Emhoff admitted to having an affair with
his family’s nanny during his first marriage years ago. The nanny’s
close friend claimed to the media that the nanny became pregnant during
the affair with Emhoff, but did not keep the baby.
Critics also slammed Psaki for the "softball interiew."
"Emhoff
also once impregnated his child's nanny. Jen still says she's a
journalist," Fox News contributor Joe Concha posted on X in reaction to
the clip.
Psaki continued in the interview that aired Sunday by asking Emhoff if he's familiar with "a pop-culture phrase, ‘wife guy,’ which you’ve kind of been known as."

"I have heard about it," Emhoff said.
"A ‘wife guy,’ a ‘proud wife guy.’ How do you feel about it?" she asked.
Emhoff joked, "If I do something annoying to Kamala, and she gets upset, I’ll just show her that article."

Emhoff
admitted to having an affair with his family's nanny shortly after the
Daily Mail published a report in August that he got his daughter's nanny
pregnant. The nanny's close friend told the outlet that she did not
keep the baby, but did not elaborate further.
The affair with a nanny occurred before Emhoff's relationship with and eventual marriage to Harris.
"During
my first marriage, Kerstin and I went through some tough times on
account of my actions. I took responsibility, and in the years since, we
worked through things as a family and have come out stronger on the
other side," Emhoff said over the summer, acknowledging the affair, but
not naming the nanny.
Emhoff and his first wife, Kerstin Emhoff, were married from 1992 to 2008 and share two adult children. Harris married Emhoff in 2014, and helped co-parent his children, who call their stepmom "mommala."
The divorce cited "irreconcilable differences" as the motivation behind parting ways, the New York Post reported.
Harris knew about the affair before they married, and the Biden 2020 campaign knew about it when it was vetting her for Biden's vice presidential pick.
Fox
News Digital reached out to the Harris campaign for comment on the
interview and social media reactions as well as for comment on the
affair itself, but did not immediately receive a response.
