Trump deflects, misleads in real-time reaction to Harris speech

Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump speaks during a campaign event inside the Mohegan Arena at Casey Plaza in Wilkes-Barre, Pennsylvania, on Aug. 17, 2024. For the Washington Post

Former President Donald Trump did not hold back as Democratic nominee Kamala Harris delivered her acceptance speech Thursday night, firing off a series of scathing, insulting and sometimes unrelated comments while Harris was speaking.

Trump took to his Truth Social account to make a variety of comments, from accusing Harris of falsehoods to defending his record to making extraneous remarks, such as demanding “WHERE’S HUNTER?” in reference to President Joe Biden’s son.

At the outset of Harris’s speech, Trump took exception to how she thanked the crowd for cheering her onstage at the Democratic National Convention in Chicago. Trump also complained that Democrats referred to Harris’s running mate, Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, as “coach,” pointing out that he was an assistant coach of a high school football team.

While Harris recounted her upbringing, Trump urged her to address his three main issues: “Border, Inflation, and Crime!”

“Kamala’s biography won’t lower prices at the Grocery Store, or at the Pump!” he said. He repeatedly criticized her for not already implementing her proposals during her time as vice president, a critique he has previously aimed at Republican and Democratic opponents with long records of government service. Still, Trump himself has already served a term as president.

Trump’s rapid-fire commentary created the unprecedented spectacle of a former president and current nominee firing off critiques of his rival’s acceptance speech in real time. While Harris’s speech was in many ways a traditional convention address, Trump’s unorthodox reaction to it underlined his harsh, visceral style of politics and suggested the former president was glued…

Nanticoke Indian Association to hold 46th annual powwow Sept. 7-8

Powwow flyer 2024.jpg

The Nanticoke Tribal Association’s annual powwow is set for Sept. 7-8.

Coastal Point | Submitted

“In the powwow circle we celebrate life and honorable deeds for both the living and those who have passed on. We’re taught that by honoring individuals we encourage the next generation to embrace the unlimited possibilities of the world,” Nanticoke Indian Association representatives said this week in announcing their 46th annual powwow, set for Sept. 7-8.

This year’s powwow will feature authentic native crafts, clothing, jewelry, books and commemorative items of the Nanticoke Tribe that will be available for purchase throughout the weekend, as well as Native American food and soft drinks.

One of the dances attendees might observe this year at the powwow is the Grass Dance.

“It is believed to have originated with the Omaha Tribe. All stories of the dance point to the dance as ceremonial. In the South, some tribes believe it was connected to a warrior society and that scalps were tied to the dancers’ clothing to celebrate victory in battle. The Grass Dance, to the northern tribes, is believed to be a blessing ceremony for new ground.

“The dancers would trample the grass down in preparation for a village and grass was tied to the dancer. As the dancer moves, the fringe attached to his regalia sways as if to simulate the natural movement of tall prairie grass. The dance is said to represent the balance of life. The dancer must perform the same move on either the right or left. The dancer’s regalia is covered with yarn and ribbons that sway showing lots of color.”

More than 30 Native American crafts and food vendors will be open from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Saturday and Sunday.

At the end of…

Donation Day Helps People and the Planet

from Opportunity House

OppShop is hosting Donation Days on Friday, Aug. 23, and Saturday, Aug. 24, from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

OppShop is a retail thrift store owned and operated by Opportunity House. Located at 3045 5th St. Highway in Muhlenberg Township, the store is open five days a week.

While OppShop accepts donations all year long, Donation Day raises awareness of the benefits of donating gently used items rather than discarding them. OppShop encourages donations of clothing, furniture, books, and media at its store. OppShop also offers a pickup service for larger items like furniture and appliances.

Donating items is a great way to help our community and the planet. When people donate items to OppShop, it helps in many ways:

  • Many clients at the homeless shelter have only the clothing on their backs. They are taken to OppShop to shop for free for the clothing and shoes they need.
  • When clients leave the shelter, they shop for items to furnish their new homes for free. Most frequently needed items include dressers, kitchen sets, beds, lamps/lights, pots, pans, and other basic household items.
  • We provide affordable clothing, housewares, furniture, and other household essentials for families in our community.
  • Books, games, video games, and media (CDs, DVDs, Blu-Ray) provide affordable entertainment for families in our community.
  • Items that are not saleable are recycled at our warehouse, generating additional revenue to support the programs and services of Opportunity House.

OppShop also accepts donations from manufacturers, stores, and other distributors.

At OppShop, all proceeds from our retail thrift operation benefit Opportunity House. In the fiscal year 2024, our efforts diverted 1,041,000 pounds from landfills.

This event is part of the year-long 40th anniversary celebration for Opportunity House. Since 1984, Opportunity House has provided emergency shelter for over 500 clients who experience homelessness each year.

Good Morning Delmarva discusses the 46th annual Nanticoke Indian Powwow

WMDT – Have you ever attended the Nanticoke Indian Powwow before?

If not, here’s your chance as it will be returning for its 46th year on September 7th and 8th!

Hosted by Delaware’s first recognized tribe, the Nanticoke Indian Tribe, the event has always been a way for the community to gather and give thanks.

We spoke with Dr. Bonnie Hall whose native name is She Who Cares.

She is a past tribal council member and serves as chair for committees on the Nanticoke Indian Association.

She shared a bit of the history behind the powwow and why it continues to grow every year.

Hall tells us that the event over the years has garnered thousands of attendees who want to learn more about their culture and traditions.

She says one of the highlights of the event will be the headlining dancers.

Louis Campbell of Lumbee and Blackfoot descent is a northern traditional dancer. He will serve as the head male dancer.

Angela Gladu of Cree descent is a hip-hop hoop dancer that will be showing off her Jingle dress dancing.

There will also be a car show, an interactive bird show, Aztec dancers, a 9/11 tribute, authentic vendors and much more.

Hall says she hopes these things can attract more young people to the event to learn about their culture.

Again, the two-day event will be held at Hudson fields in Milton from 10 a.m. to 7 p.m.

Adults are 10 dollars, teens are 5 dollars, and kids under 10 are free.

Indigenous Cannabis Industry Association expands its global reach

The Indigenous Cannabis Industry Association (ICIA) is set to expand its global presence by participating in the inaugural Andean Hemp & Cannabis Trade Forum in Peru. Organized by the Global Cannabis Network Collective (GCNC) and MCd by Benzinga Cannabis managing director Javier Hasse, this event will explore the evolving legal framework of cannabis in South America and opportunities for launching hemp and medical cannabis brands in the region.

ICIA’s leadership, including founder Rob Pero and executive director Mary Jane Oatman, will join these important discussions.

Expanding International Presence

This marks another milestone in ICIA’s growing international activities. Earlier this year, Pero spoke at the International Cannabis Business Conference (ICBC) in Berlin. Pero, a cannabis entrepreneur and member of the Bad River Band of the Lake Superior Tribe of Chippewa Indians, participated in a panel discussing emerging cannabis markets.

Mary Jane Oatman is an enrolled member of the Nez Perce Tribe and a descendant of the Delaware Tribe.

Being at the forefront of her organization, she will also be a part of another international event, representing ICIA at the We Mean Business Summit in San Juan, Puerto Rico next September. In this manner, she will bring her extensive experience in cannabis advocacy and ethical background to an international audience.

“As we gather in Peru and Puerto Rico, let’s ask ourselves how Indigenous people everywhere can share knowledge and work within the growing cannabis industry to make positive change and bring the benefits of the cannabis industry home to all of our communities,” said Pero in a press release shared with Benzinga Cannabis.
