“107 Days” is Kamala Harris’ account of her failed Presidential campaign. It begins whenshe gets word from Joe Biden that he’s not going to run for reelection.

From PRS Champion to founder and lead instructor of Hat Creek Training, Bryan Morgan is one of the best in more ways than one.
In 2024, Brandon Herrera, also known as the online personality The AK Guy, came very close to winning a runnoff primary against Representative Tony Gonzales in the Texas Republican primary for District 23. The Texas Congressional District 23 extends over a vast, mostly rural area of west Texas. In the initial multi-candidate primary, Herrera won 24.6% of the vote. In the 2024 runoff, Herrera won 49.4% of the vote, very close to an upset victory. Texas District 23 is considered a "safe" Republican district. In the general election of 2024, Gonzales received 180,720 votes to Democratic candidate Santos Limon, who received 109,373 votes, according to ballotpedia. Whoever wins the runoff Republican primary in 2026 is very likely to be the Republican Congressman in the House of Representatives from Texas District 23.
In 2026, Gonzales has been embroiled in a scandal involving the suicide of a married woman staffer. Some racy texts were sent to her by Gonzales. In the initial primary in 2026, Herrera obtained about 1.6% more votes than Gonzales, in field of four candidates. Kens5.com reported, as of 5:40 p.m. on March 4, 2026, these results:
43.33% Brandon Herrera 23,830 votes
41.73% Tony Gonzales 22,949 votes
8.49% Keith Barton 4,668 votes.
Francisco 'Quito' Canseco 6.46% 3,551 votes.
There were about 55,000 votes total in the initial primary of 2026. It is close to the number cast in the 2024 primary race, about 57,600 votes. In the runoff primary election of 2024, less than 30,000 votes were cast. In the initial primary of 2024, Gonzales had 25,988 votes. In the initial 2024 primary, Herrera received 24.6% or 14,201 votes. In the initial primary in 2026, Herrero almost doubled his vote total, while Gonzalex dropped almost three thousand votes. If that dynamic holds for the 2026 runoff, Gonzalez is in trouble. In the initiial primary of 2024, 54.9% of the votes were against Tony Gonzales. In the initial primary of 2026, 58.3% of the votes were against Tony Gonzales. After the bruising in the initial runoff of 2026, the U.S. House Ethics Committee opened an investigation into the allegations of an affair. From tpr.org:
The U.S. House Ethics Committee announced Wednesday that it has opened an investigation into Rep. Tony Gonzales, a Republican from Texas CD-23, following allegations involving his conduct toward a former staff member in his congressional office.
In a statement, the committee said it voted to create an investigative subcommittee to examine whether Gonzales may have violated the House Code of Official Conduct or other applicable rules.
According to the committee, the inquiry will focus on allegations that he may have engaged in sexual misconduct involving an employee in his office and whether he may have unfairly granted special favors or privileges.
On a YouTube with Joe Pags, Representative Tony Gonzales admitted to "making a mistake".
Trump had previously endorsed Tony Gonzales, but on Friday, February 27th, before the primary, Gonzales name was conspicuously absent from Trump's list of endorsements in the Texas primaries. From fox7austin.com:
Gonzales is facing a primary challenge from Brandon Herrera, who pushed him to a runoff in the 2024 primaries. The two were separated by less than 400 votes in the runoff in 2024.
Trump has previously endorsed Gonzales, but during Friday's flurry of endorsements, the congressman's name and district were noticeably absent.
Ballotpedia show Herrera with $868,569 in funds raised according to the Federal Elections Commission, as of February 11, 2026. According to the Texas Tribune, Herrera has raised 2.3 million in campaign funds as of March 4. The Tribune claims Herrara has more funds available than does Gonzales. According to San Antonio Today, Kyle Rittenhouse campaigned for Brandon Herrara in a door knocking campaign on March 2, a day before the initial primary election.

Philadelphia police said the preliminary investigation found that Jones-Walker was assaulting his girlfriend in a rear bedroom of the home when her 11-year-old son retrieved her firearm and shot him.
According to police, the man, who police say had no association with the hospital, was with a group of young men in the parking lot when they were approached by a security guard. At some point, the guard shot the man. Police have not confirmed if the man fired at the guard first.
The homeowner said at least one of the suspects had a gun, and that's when he feared for his safety, according to police.
He then shot his firearm at the suspects and they fled, police said.
"During our initial investigation, Darien Police Detectives determined that a male juvenile potentially matching the description of one of the suspects arrived at the Bridgeport Hospital suffering from a gunshot wound and was rushed to surgery," Darien police said in a Facebook post.

The M3 Fighting Knife was designed with a single purpose: to kill the enemy. It was designed to penetrate deeply into an opponent during hand-to-hand combat, severing arteries and veins along the way, so that the opponent would quickly lose enough blood to cease to be a threat. The M3 and the KA-BAR were evaluated together for the US military in 1942 by civilians on the Smaller War Plants Corporation Board. It was adopted by that board based on civilian rather than military criteria. The chairman of that board was eager to select designs that could be quickly and economically …

Man Fell in Love with Google Gemini and It Told Him to Stage a 'Mass Casualty Attack' Before He Took His Own Life: Lawsuit
Investigators said a woman tried to hold Reed back during the argument as Magee started backing away with his hands up, attempting to de-escalate the situation.
Reed pushed Magee and then acted like he was walking away before he turned back around, drew a handgun and fired multiple rounds at Magee, according to police.
Investigators said Magee then pulled his own handgun and returned fire as he was falling to the ground. Reed reportedly fled the scene in a car.
Reed was taken into custody at his home around 10 p.m. on March 5. He was arrested and charged with second-degree murder and tampering with physical evidence.
According to the probable cause affidavit, the victim claimed that Guy and the other man confronted him as he was walking home from the Target shopping plaza and assaulted him, repeatedly punching him in the face.
During the struggle, the victim allegedly retrieved a firearm from his backpack and fired it in self-defense.
The Sheriff's Office said that surveillance footage from the scene revealed Guy fleeing while discarding what deputies identified as Lewis’s stolen iPhone 13. He was also allegedly seen removing a firearm from a cross-body bag before being apprehended by deputies.
Investigators say 38-year-old Octavio Sanchez of Rio Hondo was beaten during a confrontation with Roel and Tristan Benitez. Sanchez told deputies he shot both brothers in self-defense during the alleged assault. The case is still under investigation, and no charges have been announced.
The incident occurred on Greentown Road in the McDonald Community around 1:20 p.m. Upon arrival, deputies located a male victim who suffered a gunshot wound to the leg and was airlifted to a regional trauma center for further treatment.
Another man at the scene, who deputies believe to be the shooter, has been detained for questioning. Deputies said that his statement appears to be consistent with self-defense, according to sheriff spokesperson Heather Pelham.

The need to be prepared to defend one’s self in an increasingly uncivil, hostile world is apparent. I strongly recommend the daily carriage of a defensive sidearm, backed up by a reliable edged weapon whenever possible, and I strongly encourage regular practice with these essential tools. More important than simply having hardware is cultivating the mindset of awareness and preparedness. But all too often, our increasingly intrusive nanny state governments, both national and local, enact laws and encourage policies designed to disarm us in public places. Some jurisdictions will go out of their way to prosecute any use of armed …

His Majesty's fleet seems to be entirely unable to protect His Majesty's subjects abroad. There seems to be only a single ship (MHS Dragon) that can be sent to Cyprus for anti-missile defense, and it has taken more than a week to prepare to sail. And they still haven't left port.
The Royal Navy is no allied force worth considering. Perhaps HMS Defiant can comment on his place.
As they point out, the Royal Navy was ready to sail in three days when the Iron Lady Maggie Thatcher told them to stand ready in the Falkland crisis. And then they had something like 100 ships. Now they can't get a single one.
As Donald Trump would say, sad!
Although I like what he says about the "1000 ship Navy" at about 11:40 into the video. 'Tis a consummation devoutly to be wished.
But after all, what today is the "special relationship" or even the transatlantic alliance? But it's really weird that we're getting more support from Germany than from Great Britain these days.
Whatever you do, don't mention the war. Gosh, the darn Krauts have no sense of humor ...
The Royal Navy is the fleet of Great Britain. You know Great Britain, right? It used to be where Britain is now. Sic transit Gloria Mundi.
