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.”
Athlete’s Sweet Treat Turns Deadly: What Really Happened at Thanksgiving
It was Thanksgiving in Maine, and 11-year-old Oakley Debbs was on vacation with his family. Oakley, a top student from West Palm Beach, Florida, was also a star athlete, even though he had asthma and food allergies.
For the holiday, his family had ordered a Thanksgiving basket full of treats. Oakley chose to have a piece of cake from the basket.
Tragically, something went wrong after he ate the cake, leading to a heartbreaking event. His family and friends are now working to raise awareness and prevent similar incidents from happening to others.
Despite his asthma and nut allergies, Oakley loved playing tennis, football, soccer, and even running marathons. His family remembers him as a “brave and strong warrior” who fought hard against his conditions.
On November 24, Oakley Debbs, an 11-year-old, had a piece of pound cake that was left on the kitchen table where his family was staying in Maine. His mom, Merrill Debbs, said Oakley always checked labels to avoid nuts and didn’t see any warnings.
“He thought it was just a piece of cake,” his dad, Robert Debbs, explained. “But after he ate it, he mentioned it might have nuts.” Merrill agreed the cake had a nutty taste, which turned out to be walnut.
Merrill gave Oakley Benadryl, as they usually did for allergic reactions, and he said he felt fine. At that point, he only had a small hive on his lip.
But soon after, Oakley complained of chest pain and started vomiting. His parents called 911, but by the time the ambulance arrived ten minutes later, Oakley was blue. His airway had closed, and his heart had stopped.

The family struggled to accept Oakley’s tragic death and understand why he couldn’t be saved.
“I don’t think my beautiful, amazing son should have passed away,” Merrill said.
In response, the family started the Red Sneaker Foundation to teach people about anaphylaxis, a severe allergic reaction that can be life-threatening. They chose red sneakers as a symbol because Oakley loved them, hoping to increase awareness about food allergies.

Experts recommend using epinephrine for even mild allergic reactions. Merrill said, “Oakley was a rock star, a good kid. I always knew he’d make a difference—just not after he passed away. That’s a big part of why we’re doing this.”
