The 2024 election is on the horizon, and it appears former President Donald Trump has all but Iocked up the Republican side of the contest.
Despite, or perhaps because of, the continued efforts from the left, Trump’s popularity and poll numbers have spiked, particularly with minorities, which is terribIe news for Democrats.
Joe Biden is the incumbent, but he is getting a challenge from Robert Kennedy Jr. as a third-party candidate, and there are rampant rumors about Biden getting replaced on the 2024 Democrat ticket. Biden’s age and declining mentaI state are clearly an issue, but the Democrats also do not have a particularly deep bench in terms of potential replacements.
There have been rumors of California Governor Gavin Nesom prepping to run, as well as Vice President Kamala Harris, but both are widely regarded as failures and barring an unexpected bid from the likes of Michelle Obama, the left has precious little to offer.
This leaves us with a likely Biden/Trump slugfest in 2024. Sensing a Democrat worst-case scenario, namely, President Trump getting another term, some Hollywood celebrities have aIready begun talking about leaving the country should Trump run it back in 2024.
It should be recalled that numerous Hollywood liberals vowed to leave the country in 2016 should Trump win. Predictably, exactly none of them did, but that doesn’t mean the usual suspects won’t be threatening the same in 2024.
Recently, Barbara Streisand made some well-worn promises to leave the country should Trump win. Promises, promises.
In an interview promoting her one-thousand-page autobiography, Streisand said this: I will move. I can’t live in this country if he became president.”
Uncle left with third-degree burns after running into burning building to save 8-year-old girl
A Washington man is rightfully being hailed a hero after charging into a burning home to save his eight-year-old niece.
Reports detail how 20-year-old Derrick Byrd suffered second and third-degree burns on his face, back, and arms, having rushed into the building when he became aware his niece was trapped.
Speaking to KOMO-TV, he said: “Even though I got burnt, I really didn’t care, though. I’d rather get burnt than her. She’s young. She’s still got a lot of stuff going for her. She’s a good kid.”
The fire, at a home in Aberdeen, Washington is believed to have started while Byrd and six other family members were inside, including his sister, Kayla, and her three children.
Byrd caught his nephews, Junior and Royce, when they jumped from a window on the second floor. His eight-year-old niece Mercedes, however, was too afraid to jump after having watched Kayla fall from the roof.
Without thinking, Byrd dashed back into the house to rescue her. Within moments, he could feel the flames on him.
“I could feel it burning me,” he explained.
“I got her and took my shirt off and put it around her face so she wouldn’t breathe in any smoke and I just carried her out as fast as I could.”
True hero
What’s more, despite suffering injuries, Byrd said he would do it again if he had to.
“I’d run back in there and do it again even if I got burnt worse or died.”
Commenting on all those dubbing him a hero, he simply replied: “I can’t say a hero. I’d just say for my niece and nephews, I wasn’t going to let them die.”
What a genuine hero Derrick Byrd truly is. In moments like that, people’s true colours are shown, and Derrick can certainly be proud of his.
