If anyone needed proof that Democrats hate the military, this article is that proof . According to this article, "Senate Democrats blocked a Republican-sponsored bill Thursday to pay active-duty members of the military and other essential federal employees who have been required to work during the government shutdown. Democrats blocked the Shutdown Fairness Act of 2025, sponsored by Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.), in a mostly party-line 54-45 vote. It needed 60 votes to advance." Further, the article says "Sens. Jon Ossoff (D-GA), Raphael Warnock (D-GA) and John Fetterman (D-PA) crossed party lines to vote in favor of the measure. Fetterman, along with Sens. Catherine Cortez-Masto (D-NV) and Angus King (I-Maine), has also been voting with Republicans to reopen the government. The two Georgia Democrats have been voting against that stopgap funding bill." It's fair to call Sen. Fetterman a moderate-to-conservative, pro-American Democrat. I might call Sen. King a modera...

While it'd be a bit overstated to say that New Jersey Democrats are in trouble because of the final voter registration figures, it isn't overstated to say that Democrats shouldn't worry about this year's election. This morning, the New York Post reported "The number of registered Republicans in New Jersey grew by nearly 31,000 this year — while the number of registered Democrats dropped by more than 11,000, new data show. Democrats still hold the overall edge in the Garden State, with a total of 2.5 million registered voters compared to about 1.6 million registered Republicans and 2.3 million unaffiliated voters." Numerically speaking, that's still a significant lead for Democrats. The things that Democrats should worry about are the trend and the fact that Scott Presler is spearheading the NJ voter registration drive. These aren't things that are strengthening the NJ Democrat Party. The fact that NJ Democrat registration dropped by 11,000 signifies a...

Apparently, the DFL operatives posing as Minnesota Supreme Court justices don't respect the constitutional principle known as the Supremacy Clause . The text of the Supremacy Clause says "This Constitution, and the Laws of the United States which shall be made in Pursuance thereof; and all Treaties made, or which shall be made, under the Authority of the United States, shall be the supreme Law of the Land ; and the Judges in every State shall be bound thereby, any Thing in the Constitution or Laws of any State to the Contrary notwithstanding." Yesterday, KSTP reported "The Minnesota Supreme Court has ruled that an adult transgender athlete was discriminated against when she was banned from participating in a women’s powerlifting competition but opened the door to additional legal challenges. Minnesota’s high court issued its opinion Wednesday morning. In doing so, the court affirmed that the state’s Human Rights Act (MHRA) protects transgender people from discrimin...

Last week, I wrote this article about Keith Ellison disrespecting the military. He disrespected the military by showing disinterest in the arrival of an Honor Flight at Reagan National Airport on Sept. 26. Almost a month after the incident and almost a week after the incident was report, AG Ellison responded to the article. Ellison's response was classic Ellison. Ellison said "Let me just say, the idea that I don’t support veterans is ridiculous. It’s untrue. It’s a lie. Now look, that day, there were 10 or 11 different veterans that came off. I clapped for like all of them.Then I got a call from my office and I answered the phone. And so I might not have been able to see that one that they caught me where I was attending to work-related business." In this video, there wasn't footage of Ellison getting a "call from my office." In this video, what happened is pretty straightforward: Ellison said "I clapped for like all of them." What do your eyes ...

Now that John Catsimatidis has called for Curtis Sliwa to drop out of the NYC mayoral race, the question now is simple. Where were they when this race was just getting started? Where was Catsimatidis when candidates were getting recruited? Where was Ackman when top-tier candidates were guests of honor at the biggest fundraisers? You'd think that people with this much exposure to high-level politicking like Catsimatidis and Ackman have that they'd know that campaign machines are built a year before the election. Campaign machines can't be built a month before Election Day, mostly because that's when early voting starts. You can't even start a month before early voting starts. Starting a year before helps campaigns register new voters, fundraise, put key people in positions of importance and give them time to get polished. Now Catsimatidis wants Sliwa to drop out after Sliwa handily won the first debate. It’s worth noting that Andrew Cuomo looked like ‘Low Energy Jeb...

Are House Democrats about to try a new twist in leadership? This morning, Axios reported that "Democratic congressional candidates nationwide, feeding off voter fury, are raging against their leadership and vowing to be ruthless." We know that Democrats know how to be ruthless. After all, they're the Party That (allegedly) Assassinated Charlie Kirk. They're the Party that allegedly attempted to (twice) assassinate then Candidate Donald Trump. But I digress. According to Axios, "I am not a 'when they go low, we go high' [person]. I'm not that kind of girl," Texas state Rep. Jolanda Jones, who is running in a November special election for a safely Democratic U.S. House seat, told Axios about dealing with Republicans." It's one thing to attack the opposite party. It's another to attack your own party. According to this article , "Dozens of Democrats running for U.S. House seats across the country told Axios they either wouldn'...

For the 11th time this year, Senate Democrats voted to keep the federal government shut down . To be fair, only a portion of the government is shut down. Most of the appropriations bills have been signed. That being said, some major bills haven't been signed. CBS is reporting that "Senate Majority Leader John Thune is expected to bring up a bill this week that would pay federal employees and military service members who have continued to work during the funding lapse. Advancing the legislation would require support from Democrats, who blocked a long-term defense spending bill from advancing last week." Expect that to fall short of the 60 votes needed to end cloture. While the Senate keeps voting to keep the government shut, expect House Republicans to stay away. Speaker Miker Johnson got ABC anchor Jonathan Karl to admit the quiet part out loud: Driving the Shutdown This is interesting: Democratic Rep. Johnny Olszewski — whose Maryland district is home to over 20,000 fede...

If people ever needed proof of Omar Fateh's and the DFL's gullibility, this is it .The Washington Free Beacon is reporting that "Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh engaged in a series of friendly conversations with a parody X account masquerading as the 'chief rabbi of Gaza' and 'nude yogi,' screenshots shared with the Washington Free Beacon show. I would love to do a fundraiser for you,' Rabbi Linda Goldstein wrote. 'How do I get in touch? This anti-Zionist rabbi loves and supports you.'" That's stunningly foolish. I just did a short dig into this parody Twitter account. To say that it's filled with hat tips that it's fake is understatement. Sen. Fateh couldn't have done 5 seconds of research on this "chief rabbi of Gaza." For instance, check out this tweet: 🚨🚨🚨 Israel has struck my Flotilla ship with A SECOND TACTITCAL NUKE. I just took this photo of the mushroom cloud over my ship. We are all safe for ...

Chuck Schumer shouldn't post on Twitter. He's worthless at it. After Sen. Schumer posted on Twitter on Thursday, Speaker Mike Johnson spoke out , saying "In his desperation, he’s selfishly chosen to 'show a fight' by: 1) shutting down the entire federal government; 2) demanding $1.5 trillion in NEW wasteful spending; and 3) promoting a rally openly sponsored by Communists. Schumer is shameless." Speaker Johnson added that "Schumer's power is 'now in jeopardy because the Marxists are planning to take his seat.'" This is what happens when Democrats try holding on too long. Right now, Sen. Schumer's leadership looks precarious. I wrote here how the No Kings Rally is a fraud. I quoted "The official No Kings organization’s partners include Communist Party USA (CPUSA), the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the DSA’s New York City and Boulder, Colorado, chapters, according to websites advertising upcoming national and New Yor...

The unmistakable message behind the No Kings is that they hate dictatorships and authoritarians . That's apparently intentionally misleading. Alpha News is reporting that "The official No Kings organization’s partners include Communist Party USA (CPUSA), the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) and the DSA’s New York City and Boulder, Colorado, chapters, according to websites advertising upcoming national and New York City protests. No Kings started its movement in 2025 and centers around portraying Trump as authoritarian, despite CPUSA repeatedly praising late Cuban dictator Fidel Castro and the DSA’s International Committee showing 'solidarity' with North Korea’s totalitarian government." I can't wait to hear No Kings' explanation that makes this movement and its sponsors palatable and/or acceptable. I don't think it's possible. That isn’t the only part of the No Kings Movement’s message that doesn’t fit with other parts of their message. On th...

After reading this Alpha News article , I'm left wondering if DNC Chair Ken Martin unintentionally threw the DNC under the proverbial bus. In the article, it opens by saying "Democratic National Committee (DNC) Chairman Ken Martin said in an interview published Friday that his role makes him want to pull his own hair out on a daily basis. Martin told Politico that there is 'not a day that I don’t go home wanting to pull my hair out' in his current role. He added that being the head of the DNC is a very 'tough job.'" Did Chairman Martin mean that it's far more difficult to run an organization like the DNC, where there are more competitive seats? Or did Chairman Martin hint that he can't sit in his office and watch the checks come in without him having to do much in the way of fundraising? Either way, he's dealing with people like Sen. Schumer, who just got criticized by Mark Penn , who said this to Bret Baier during Special Report's Winners ...

Despite their best efforts to pretend they support the military, Democrats voted against funding the military . Sen. Schumer's Shutdown is a perfect portrait of nonleadership. According to CBS's reporting, "Senate Democrats blocked an effort to advance an individual year-long appropriations bill to fund the Pentagon on Thursday, stalling Republican leaders' alternative approach to restart some funding on Day 16 of the government shutdown." CBS also reported that "In a 50 to 44 vote, all but three Democrats voted against moving forward with the full-year Defense Department appropriations bill. Democratic Sens. Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire, Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and John Fetterman of Pennsylvania voted in favor of advancing the bill. It needed 60 votes to advance." What type of 'moderate' votes to not pay our soldiers? There are some things that are simply unacceptable. Not paying our soldiers is one of those things. Not paying our so...

It's apparent that KSTP's Tom Hauser hasn't paid enough attention to Minnesota's gubernatorial race. When Hauser started his Political Analysis xegment of At Issue, he opened with Tim Pawlenty speaking at another establishment-based chat. Gov. Pawlenty said that the MNGOP couldn't just criticize the DFL. To nobody's surprise, everyone pretty much agreed with him. Noticeably missing was conservative solutions . The good news is that there's a candidate fixated on fixing problems. What's better is that he's got a history of fixing problem. I have the privilege of being his campaign manager. I also have the privilege of calling Jeff my longtime friend. You'd be wise in checking out St. Cloud City Councilman Jeff Johnson's campaign website . First, it's worth noting that Jeff didn't bury the lede. He opened his campaign website by saying "How many times have you heard political candidates give the same worn out gag-reflex speech that...

Foolish Democrats like Sen. Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries insist that this isn't Sen. Schumer's Shutdown. Democrats aren't doing themselves favors by fighting that lost fight. This CBS article is proof that this is Sen. Schumer's Shutdown. The article opens by saying "The Senate failed to advance a House-passed GOP bill to fund the government for the ninth time on Wednesday, the 15th day of the government shutdown. The vote attracted no additional support from Democrats, who are demanding an extension of health care tax credits in exchange for their votes. Republicans need to convince five more senators to cross the aisle, a number that has remained unchanged since the start of the funding lapse. It's indisputable to say that the GOP shut down the government. The House GOP passed a clean CR (Continuing Resolution) on Sept. 30, 2025. Then they sent the CR to the Senate for their consideration, then hopefully onto the White House for President Trump's signatur...

If ever there was a party that's totally missing character and virtue, it's the Democrats'-DFL Party. The highest profile proof of that is the Jay Jones Scandal in Virginia, with the J.B. Pritzker Riots running a close second. In 'fights' like this, though, it's difficult to bet against Keith Ellison's shennanigans . I offer as proof this Alpha News article, which opens by saying "Alpha News obtained exclusive video of Attorney General Keith Ellison not clapping for veterans as they arrived on an Honor Flight to visit memorials in Washington, D.C. The video was captured at Reagan National Airport on Sept. 26, just after the honor flight landed. Airline workers were announcing some veterans by name as they arrived—yet as the bystander video shows, Attorney General Ellison was not clapping." Please understand that I’m not saying that Jay Jones isn’t a total jerk who should’ve been rejected by Democrats. That definitely should’ve happened. Predictabl...

As usual, Salena Zito's latest article nails it perfectly. In Salena's article, she wrote about Virginia Democrats' character (or lack thereof). She wrote "The stakes couldn’t be higher,' Jay Jones, the Virginia Democrat running for state attorney general, said Monday in an X post. It was an ironic post, coming 10 days after National Review reported numerous violent text messages Jones sent to a colleague in the legislature about a Republican lawmaker. Jones fantasized about urinating on the graves of political opponents as well as shooting then-Virginia House Speaker Todd Gilbert with 'two bullets to the head.' He also texted that he hoped Gilbert’s wife, Jennifer, would one day hold one of her children as they died." Then Salena continued, saying "And how hard is it for Virginia Democrats to demand that he face consequences for his behavior? Where are Sens. Mark Warner (D-VA) and Tim Kaine (D-VA)? Gubernatorial nominee Abigail Spanberger and li...

Though they had virtually nothing to do with the Israeli-Hamas cease-fire, Joe Biden and Tony Blinken have taken partial credit for the Israeli-Hamas cease-fire signed yesterday in Sharm el-Sheikh, Egypt. For instance, in his tweet, Biden said "The road to this deal was not easy. My Administration worked relentlessly to bring hostages home, get relief to Palestinian civilians, and end the war. I commend President Trump and his team for their work to get a renewed ceasefire deal over the finish line." Honestly, this peace deal had little to do with the Biden administration or Blinken specifically. The world saw how weak the Biden administration was. They saw that Joe was a shell of his former self. Yesterday was mostly about President Trump's triumph. It wasn't about Biden's or Blinken's tactics. Blinken gave that away in this tweet . In that tweet, Blinken said "First, what changed to make this breakthrough possible? Hamas is finally and fully isolated....

I'm thankful that Brandon Straka wasn't intimidated by Democrats, though, according to this , Democrats definitely attempted to intimidate Mr. Straka. This story opens with Mr. Straka saying "Once upon a time, I was a liberal, but you already knew that." Thankfully, Mr. Straka mustered up his courage and stood his ground. Then Mr. Straka exposed the Democrat Party for who they are and what they've done in the name of maintaining their grip on power. I frequently offer copious amounts of commentary but I won't this time. I'll let Mr. Straka speak for himself. He'll do a much better of a job speaking for himself than I could. Here's Brandon's story in his words: Brandon Straka: Liberalism has been devoured by leftism and leftism is just hatred and destruction marketed as virtue. Part of what's appealing about Brandon Staka is that it's difficult o pigeonhole him into the 'typical' archconservative mischaracterization. While it...

President Trump is great at criticizing other presidents, whether they're American presidents or foreign presidents. President Trump has had fun with French President Macron. This morning, President Trump had fun trolling US Presidents Obama and Biden . Specifically, President Trump said "Nobody asked Joe Biden to come up and speak, I guarantee you that. If he did, he would have turned them down, I promise you. He didn't speak. He didn't speak, and he didn't speak well." After President Trump trolled Joe Biden, he sunk his teeth into President Obama, saying "But all of the countries in the Middle East—it could have—what we're doing now, it could have happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and Joe Biden. There was—there was a hatred towards Israel. There was an absolute hatred." Then President Trump let President Obama have it with both barrels: Setbacks really starte...

It didn't take long to figure out that Tom Hauser wouldn't be a neutral arbiter reporting the news when he interviewed Minnesota Congressman Pete Stauber . The opening question was confrontational, with Hauser asking Rep. Stauber "What proof do you have that the Democrats' motivation for shutting down government is to get free health care for illegals?" Rep. Stauber responded, saying "So the evidence is actually in the text of the Senate bill where they qant to reverse the Working Family Tax Cuts, where it says that we want to verify citizenship for taxpayer-funded health insurance." Republicans have given that reply for over a week. Democrats know that the proof is found on Page 57 in Section 2141 . The text reads " SEC. 2141. REPEAL OF HEALTH SUBTITLE CHANGES. Subtitle B of title VII of the Act titled "An Act to provide for reconciliation pursuant to title II of H. Con. Res. 14" (Public Law 119–21) is repealed and any law or regulation ...

A short 4 years ago, few people gave Jack Ciattarelli a chance of defeating Democrat incumbent Phil Murphy. Predictably, the 'experts' were off. Ciattarelli lost but by only 3 point. This time, NJ Democrats aren't taking anything for granted. Democrat Congresswoman Mikkie Sherrill is running this time because Gov. Murphy is term-limited out. She'll still face Ciattarelli. This time, though, a few things have changed in NJ, mostly starting with the number of registered voters in NJ . The most recent data from NJ says that "More than 4.2 million, nearly two thirds of all voters, are registered with a party in New Jersey. Democrats continue to outnumber Republicans with more than 38% of all registered New Jersey voters, according to the latest numbers. About 25% of voters were registered as Republicans as of Oct. 1. About 35% of voters are unaffiliated, the new data says." It should worry Democrats that "the number of Republicans has surged since 2021, with ...

The New York Post is reporting that Chuck Grassley has released a memo that shows "The FBI secretly obtained the phone records of nine Republican members of Congress, including eight sitting senators, under the Biden administration as part of its 'Arctic Frost' investigation of 2020 election meddling, a bombshell document revealed." Whoever is involved with Operation Arctic Frost is likely in trouble. That's because Chuck Grassley and Ron Johnson, the chairs of the Senate Judiciary Committee and the Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, respectively, issued a joint statement , which said "Given that these materials relate to an unprecedented collection of records and information on sitting [Members of Congress] and raise serious constitutional concerns, Congress’ need for these records clearly outweighs any interest in secrecy. Further, the unprecedented nature of the DOJ’s and FBI’s actions in collecting [Members of Congress’] communication recor...

The first major news to break since word broke alleging Jay Jones' texting scandal broke this afternoon. UPI, via Axios, is reporting that "The Democrat candidate for Virginia attorney general has canceled a Thursday fundraiser in the wake of his texting scandal, Axios reported." The article continues, saying "The fundraiser was scheduled for Thursday evening at the home of novelist David Baldacci, but the cancellation may indicate the Jones campaign is struggling. Top Democrats, including Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., have denounced the texts but haven't called on Jones to drop out of the race, causing Republicans to allege hypocrisy. Kaine called the texts 'indefensible,' but says he's 'still a supporter.' He said, 'Jay has apologized,' Axios reported." If Sen. Kaine honestly thinks that Jones has legitimately apologized, Sen. Kaine isn't qualified to serve in the Senate. Anyone that's listened to Jones's faux apology kno...

It's been assumed for a month that Abigail Spanberger would defeat Winsome Earle-Seares, then become Virginia's next single-term govoernor. Ben Domenech's op-ed questions that theory. Domenech's op-ed is particularly noteworthy because he's a Virginia resident with his wife Meghan McCain. But I digress. Back to the op-ed. Domenech wrote "The off-year governor’s election in purple Virginia is almost always a win for the party that doesn’t hold the White House, but this year the race is showing how much Democrats have refused to learn their lessons from their massive culture-war losses of 2024. The battle in the Old Dominion has all the hallmarks of Democrats’ White House defeat in November." Quite a few polls show Spanberger with a significant, though not prohibitive-sized lead. With Jay Jones' ethical difficulties, it isn't likely that Spanberger will open up an outside-the-margin-of-error lead. The Turning Point? Thanks in part to a massive spen...

A miraculous thing happened during Margaret Brennan's interview of Chuck Schumer. During Brennan's interview, she pushed Schumer . According to this transcript, Brennan opened by saying "I want to pick up on something the Speaker of the House was pointing to. He wants this fight to be about illegals, as he said. And I want to be specific here, because we know from our research that there is no federal money that goes towards health care tax credits for undocumented immigrants in this country. The federal government doesn't fund health insurance for the undocumented. But it is also true that states like yours, New York, does provide health care for people who are in this country illegally. And their argument seems to be the money here is fungible, and bottom line is, it comes out of the federal pocket. Do you want to respond to that?" Smart policy wonks would reflexively know to throw in the 'money is fungible' line. I suspect that put Sen. Schumer on the d...

It's time the GOP did a real investigation into the alleged violations of the 4th Amendment by Jack Smith. Little-by-little, information is dribbling out about the improprieties allegedly committed by Jack Smith, who never should've been picked as a special counsel. Yesterday, Sen. Grassley revealed an FBI document that revealed "the FBI targeted eight Republican senators’ personal cell phones for 'tolling data' as part of its Arctic Frost investigation." Grassley's memo continues, saying "The FBI targeted the following Members of Congress: Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-Tenn.) Sen. Josh Hawley (R-Mo.) Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Alaska) Sen. Tommy Tuberville (R-Ala.) Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) Sen. Cynthia Lummis (R-Wyo.) Sen. Marsha Blackburn (R-Tenn.) Rep. Mike Kelly (R-Pa.) Today, Susan Ferrechio of the Washington Times reported this: The FBI spied on eight Senate Republicans and a House Republican lawmaker in 2023 during the Justice ...

If this Fox News article is telling the truth, Jay Jones' days as Virginia Democrats' candidate for their attorney general are nearing their end. Fox is reporting that "An MSNBC "Morning Joe" panelist called for Democratic Virginia attorney general candidate Jay Jones to drop out of the race after his text messages resurfaced showing he called for the shooting of a GOP lawmaker. Co-host Mika Brzezinski noted that Republicans and Democrats were criticizing the messages and said they were 'horrible.' She added, 'I didn’t want to read them out loud.'" HotAir's David Strom, however, is reporting something quite different. Strom has written that "I don't know if new internal polling has dropped that shows that Virginia's Democratic Party candidate for Attorney General Jay Jones can survive his murderous texting scandal, or whether Democrats just believe that fantasizing about killing your political opponents is normal and accept...

Apparently, there's something in Virginia's water that makes Democrat politicians turn stupid. According to this article , Jay Jones and Abigail Spanberger blew up their campaigns. The Mercury reports that "What began as a quiet October Friday in Virginia politics erupted into a full-blown national scandal when screenshots of private, three-year old text messages showing Democratic attorney general nominee Jay Jones fantasizing about shooting then-House Speaker Todd Gilbert and his children were made public . What would prompt a man to say something that mean-spirited, especially that mean-spirited about a little kid? Is that the temperament you want in a state's chief law enforcement officer? That wouldn't be my first choice. It's stunning to read "The National Review story revealed an August 2022 exchange between Jones, a former Norfolk delegate and one-time assistant attorney general, and Del. Carrie Coyner, R-Chesterfield. In the texts, Jones described...

According to this Alpha News article , a "coalition of Democrat state attorneys general is suing to continue taxpayer subsidies for public schools to teach gender ideology in sex education classes. The coalition is led by Washington state Attorney General Nick Brown, Oregon Attorney General Dan Rayfield, and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison and includes 16 states and the District of Columbia. The complaint was filed Sept. 26 in the U.S. District Court in Oregon." These perverts want to teach gender ideology in sex ed classes? What type of perverts do we have for state attorneys general? Check this out: In August, the Administration for Children and Families, an agency within the Department of Health and Human Services, warned 40 states and six territories to remove references to gender ideology from the educational materials of the federally funded Personal Responsibility Education Program, also known as PREP, which instructs teens to avoid pregnancy and sexually tran...

Anyone that thinks that Tim Walz, Minnesota's DFL governor, doesn't care about preventing crime or fraud hasn't read this article . Alpha News is reporting that "The Minnesota Department of Human Services (DHS) has confirmed that Dylan Adams, the fiscal policy analyst caught on video vandalizing Teslas in Minneapolis, is still employed by the state — meaning Minnesota taxpayers are footing the bill for his salary. In response to Alpha News inquiries, a DHS spokesperson said: "Dylan Adams is a current employee." Apparently, the Walz administration doesn't care that it's employing a vandal in its Department of Human Services. As for whether Adams "has faced consequences for racking up more than $21,000 in damage during work hours , the agency offered little transparency. 'No public data exists with respect to disciplinary action,' the spokesperson said." This reminds me of the old phrase I coined, which says 'It's impossible to...

Townhall's Katie Pavlich is reporting that President Trump hasn't brought the National Guard into Chicago the way Mayor Johnson and Gov. Pritzker anticipated. Just because President Trump didn't do things the way Mayor Johnson and Gov. Pritzker anticipated doesn't mean DHS isn't damaging Chicago's criminal alien gangs. Pavlich is reporting that "While President Donald Trump has stopped short of sending National Guard troops into Chicago, the Department of Homeland Security is doing some major damage against illegal aliens being harbored in the area." Her reporting continues, saying "U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers were targets of two separate vehicular assaults in the Chicago metro area. In Bensenville, Illinois and again in Norridge, IL criminal illegal aliens weaponized their vehicles in deliberate attempts to ram and injure officers carrying out their sworn duty to uphold our nation’s immigration laws." Starting O...

Since the Schumer Shutdown started, Democrats have tried to run away from their responsibility for shutting the federal government down. This tweet contains the Democrats proposed language to repeal the Medicaid changes that were signed into law by President Trump. Check this out: IMAGE 1: Straight from Democrat proposal IMAGE 2: OBBB Table of Contents (Title VII, Subsection B repealed in Democrat proposal) IMAGE 3: Actual text of OBBB section ending health care for illegals (repealed in Democrat proposal) https://t.co/cThGVkgwSf pic.twitter.com/xeLXQeL0VU — Rapid Response 47 (@RapidResponse47) October 1, 2025 It's time that Democrats stop lying. We've got the receipts. The gig is up.

Jeanne Shaheen, New Hamphshire's Democrat senator, picked the wrong fight with Lawrence Jones Thursday morning. "Fox News’ Lawrence Jones and Sen. Jeanne Shaheen (D-NH) clashed on Thursday over whether Democrats are calling for healthcare for illegal immigrants — and Jones offered tape to back his side up." Sen. Shaheen said that the accusation of Democrats wanting to give illegal aliens free health care is a GOP red herring. Sen. Shaheen said it was just a way to distract attention away from providing health care to Americans. Sen. Shaheen said "The illegal immigrant is just a red herring that’s designed to try and prevent people from talking about the real issue, which is how do we provide health insurance for people in this country." Shaheen continued, saying "I think you are making it an issue. Vice President Vance is making it an issue, but I haven’t heard anybody in my party saying that illegal immigrants should get access to the health insurance mar...

Prospect.org is reporting that Minnesota DFL Gov. Tim Walz is planning on raising the price of Minnesotans' electric bill. According to the Prospect.org article, "On Friday, the Minnesota Public Utilities Commission (PUC)—a five-member board of commissioners appointed by Democratic Gov. Tim Walz to regulate the utility industry—will decide the fate of a $6.2 billion proposal to acquire ALLETE, the parent company of Minnesota Power, an electric utility in northeastern Minnesota that serves approximately 150,000 customers throughout the region." The article continues, saying "Global Infrastructure Partners, which the asset management giant BlackRock acquired for $12.5 billion last year, and the Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPP) plan to take ALLETE private, in a deal announced in May 2024 that concluded over a year of closed-door negotiations, complete with confidentiality agreements, secretive dinners, and 'fireside chats' led by the company’s C-suite...

According to the Washington Examiner's reporting , Operation Midway Blitz is already a success. The Examiner is reporting that "More than 800 illegal immigrants have been rounded up and arrested by federal police from U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and the Border Patrol during a September operation targeting Chicago. The Department of Homeland Security announced on Wednesday afternoon that federal agents and officers deployed to Illinois as part of Operation Midway Blitz since Sept. 8 have arrested more than 800 people illegally living in the United States." John Kass, Chicago's premier columnist, reports that "The concerned and worried American called me from Washington about those riots in Broadview just outside Chicago. What he’s worried about is a type of weed that strangles Chicago, but spreads to other towns as well. From Portland, Ore. all the way to New York. It kills everything. But this strangling weed has its roots in Chicago, carried and re...
