Big Lots files for bankruptcy, will close some stores amid sale to investment firm

By  Pilar Arias | Fox Business About three months after Big Lots noted "substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue" in a U.S. Securities & Exchange Commission (SEC) filing, the company said on Monday it has secured $707.5 million to support its operations and sell its business to private equity firm Nexus Capital. This comes as the company has initiated bankruptcy proceedings under Chapter 11. Big Lots listed its assets and liabilities in the range of $1 billion to $10 billion, according to a filing with bankruptcy court in Delaware, which showed creditors in the range of 5,001-10,000. Big Lots cited troubles that began during the COVID-19 pandemic, and "macroeconomic factors such as high inflation and interest rates that are beyond its control." RE...

Harris finally adds policy page to campaign website, devotes several sections to Trump

By Danielle Wallace | Fox News Vice President Harris finally added policies to her campaign website for the first time since President Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed her in the presidential race 50 days ago. The website breaks Harris and her vice-presidential running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’ policy proposals into four sections: "Build an Opportunity Economy and Lower Costs for Families," "Safeguard Our Fundamental Freedoms," "Ensure Safety and Justice For All," and "Keep America Safe, Secure, and Prosperous."  Before the new addition, Harris' campaign website had pages to buy merchandise, donate and get to know the candidate's background, but was devoid of any policy plans for weeks even after she formally accepted the nomination at the Democratic National...

Sheffield: Faux feminist Kamala Harris, an anti-woman, misogynist candidate

By Carrie Sheffield | Daily Signal Vice President Kamala Harris claims to be a champion for women, but many facts tell a different story. Harris speaks pro-women rhetoric, but fails to protect women and girls from assaults in locker rooms.  Harris endorsed a new Biden-Harris administration rule expanding Title IX protections to gender identity and sexual orientation, requiring schools receiving federal funds to allow males into female spaces such as restrooms and locker rooms, or into any activity currently separated as male or female.  READ MORE AT THE DAILY SIGNAL Editor’s note: Opinions expressed in commentary pieces are those of the author and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of the management of the Rocky Mountain Voice, but even...

Murray: The delusions of Kamala Harris

By Douglas Murray  | The Spectator There are a number of joys in life that do not get enough attention. One is the sheer, unadulterated pleasure that can be gained from watching a politician speak about something they know nothing about. This season Kamala Harris is giving especially abundant material for connoisseurs. Recognizing that there is plenty she doesn’t know about, her campaign team are hoping that she can glide into office without having to say anything about what she might do once there. On the rare occasions when she does sit down and get asked questions, she is a master in her peculiar field. For instance, if Harris is asked about how her administration would tackle inflation she will say something like: “We need to take a moment here to acknowledge what inflation ...

Trump predicts: Colorado will be ‘taken over by migrants’ if I lose

By Sandy Fitzgerald  | Newsmax Former President Donald Trump warned Colorado voters Saturday that if he doesn't win their state in November, their state will be "taken over by migrants" and their governor, Democrat Jared Polis, will be "sent fleeing." "Colorado began the threat to democracy against me, where they tried to unconstitutionally remove me from the ballot," Trump said during his rally Saturday at the Central Wisconsin Airport in Mosinee, Wisc., which aired live on Newsmax and simulcast on the Newsmax2 online streaming platform. "I was the leading person in the whole country, leading everybody by a lot." The push was at the behest of Polis, but "many people in Colorado were absolutely angry," including Democrats and liberals, said Trump.  READ THE FULL STORY AT NEWSMA...

Legal scholar Alan Dershowitz renounces Democratic Party, cites ‘anti-Jewish’ lawmakers at DNC

By Victor Nava | New York Post Renowned legal scholar Alan Dershowitz recently announced that he is leaving the Democratic Party, after being “disgusted” by what he witnessed at last month’s Democratic National Convention.  The retired Harvard Law School professor, who is a longtime self-described liberal Democrat, told radio host Zev Brenner on Aug. 23 that he felt the Chicago gathering was “the worst convention in American history” because of the number of speakers who have publicly expressed opposition to Israel.  “They had more anti-Jewish, anti-Zionist people who were speaking, starting with [Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez] – a miserable, anti-Zionist bigot,” Dershowitz said during an appearance on “Talkline with Zev Brenner.” “Then of course they had [Sen. Elizabeth] War...

Watkins: Immigration crisis is the result of bad Biden-Harris policy

By Todd Watkins | Commentary, Special to Rocky Mountain Voice Since the Biden Administration took office in January 2021, upwards of 10 million illegal aliens have entered the United States.  The official DHS totals are somewhere in the mid-nine million range, while other sources have claimed closer to 12 million.  These are just the subjects we know about.  These are the “encounters” at the border by Border Patrol, the entries without inspection.  These numbers don’t include the “gotaways” -- the ones Border Patrol didn’t encounter –- which are around 1,500 each day. That’s another nearly two million since the Biden Administration took office. None of these numbers include those aliens who schedule an “appointment” at a port of entry (POE) via the CBPone app.&...

‘Happy’ Trump, composed Harris: How advisers want their candidate to act in Tuesday’s debate

By Ross O'keef | Washington Examiner Former President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris are fine-tuning their approaches to Tuesday night’s presidential debate, which could have massive consequences for the presidential race. Their respective advisors are hoping they can embody specific molds on Tuesday, according to the New York Times: Harris as collected and presidential, and Trump as “happy” rather than vindictive, focusing on policy-based issues rather than personal attacks. Trump is facing high pressure for this debate given Harris’s rise in the polls since her takeover as Democratic nominee. The Republican candidate played an indirect role in forcing out President Joe Biden from the Democratic nominee position giv...
