    It’s been known for quite some time that liberals don’t read all the polling data or dismiss it when it doesn’t comport with their narrative. That’s how arrogant the Left has become: we think ‘x’, therefore it’s right. Nope. That’s not how this works, and you saw that as congressional Democrats whined and threw a tantrum about the reconciliation package, which, among many things, gave a windfall to Immigration and Customs Enforcement. No doubt, making the Trump tax cuts permanent angered the Left, but it’s that the southern border being secured is what drives them up the wall the most....
  • Just half of Democrats consider themselves patriots, compared to 91% of Republicans, poll reveals

    Red, white and blue is becoming red vs. blue. As Americans celebrate Independence Day, patriotism itself is becoming a source of division, according to a new poll shared exclusively with The Post. The survey conducted by New Jersey-based GOP firm National Research Inc. found that 91% of self-identified Republicans call themselves patriots, compared to just 50% of Democrats. The poll showed a near-identical schism among 2024 voters, with 90% of those who backed President Trump identifying as patriots compared to 55% of former Vice President Kamala Harris supporters. Among self-described conservatives, 87% deemed themselves a patriot, compared to 51% of...

    On the third day of a union strike of municipal workers, garbage is piling up in Philadelphia, and some workers are resorting to threats and vandalism against residents who dare to break the strike. The City of Philadelphia is negotiating with members of the AFSCME District Council 33 union, who are asking for a wage increase of 8% per year. The city has offered to increase wages by 7% over three years, which led to the worker strike beginning Tuesday. Since then, residents are reporting that garbage is piling up and threatening their standard of living. "This is a nightmare,"...

    Migrant shelters in the United States are closing their doors in large numbers as the border crisis has waned significantly. In January, two shelters shuttered in Pima County, Arizona, according to the Arizona Daily Star. In San Diego, the Jewish Family Service closed its shelter in February, specifically citing policy changes like the CBP One app going away as part of the reason for its closure. In Texas, the San Antonio-based Migrant Resource Center that opened in 2022 closed in February due to the plunge in people crossing into the United States, according to Texas Public Radio. On the East...

    Washington Examiner ^ | 7/3/25 | David Zimmermann
    A group of Florida Democratic lawmakers said Thursday that they were denied access to the new “Alligator Alcatraz” immigrant detention facility due to “safety concerns.” The denied legislative oversight visit came less than one day after the first batch of illegal immigrants arrived at the Everglades facility. The visit was unannounced. The Democratic lawmakers at the facility were Florida state Sens. Shevrin Jones and Carlos Guillermo Smith, as well as Florida state Reps. Anna Eskamani, Angie Nixon, and Michele Rayner. Some of the lawmakers provided statements decrying their denied entry. “Florida law gives legislators the authority to make unannounced visits...

    Democratic National Committee Chair Ken Martin has warned that Americans will "die" as a result of Donald Trump's “big beautiful bill,” after Congress passed the president’s signature domestic policy package. The House narrowly voted to approve the bill Thursday, which includes massive tax and federal spending cuts. The legislation will now be sent to the president, who is expected to sign it on Friday. Martin said the bill’s provisions means Americans will "starve, lose critical medical care, lose their jobs — and yes, some will die as a result of this bill."

    Claire Shipman, the acting president of Columbia University, issued a private apology this week after leaked messages revealed she suggested removing a Jewish trustee over her pro-Israel advocacy, sparking a firestorm amid ongoing federal scrutiny of the university’s handling of antisemitism on campus. “The things I said in a moment of frustration and stress were wrong. They do not reflect how I feel,” Shipman wrote Wednesday in an email obtained by Jewish Insider, which she sent to “trusted groups of friends and colleagues.” The messages, sent in 2023 and 2024 while Shipman was co-chair of Columbia’s Board of Trustees, were...

    Liberty Daily ^ | TYLER DURDEN
    The Democrat Party is grappling with internal divisions following Democratic Socialist Zohran Mamdani’s upset victory in New York City’s Democrat mayoral primary election this week. Mamdani, a 33-year-old New York State Assembly member, decisively defeated disgraced former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo with 56% to 44% in the final ranked-choice voting results. Two prominent Obama-era officials, former Treasury Secretary Jack Lew and former Office of Management and Budget Director Peter Orszag, have publicly opposed Mamdani’s candidacy, warning that his progressive economic policies could harm New York City.
  • Here’s what to know about clean energy in Republican megabill headed to Trump

    AP, WDIO ^ | 7/3/25 | ALEXA ST. JOHN
    Congress passed a massive tax and spending cuts package Thursday that curbs billions of dollars in spending across clean energy. That means people will be paying a lot more for home solar, energy efficiency and other green technologies — and the nation’s efforts to address climate change just got a lot more challenging. The bill supports mining, drilling and production of the oil, coal and gas that are largely driving Earth’s warming and the increasingly deadly and costly extreme weather that comes with it. Producing and burning these fossil fuels also contributes to air pollution and human health problems.

    ...Not a coincidence that the DNC announces they’re broke just weeks after USAID was defunded and ActBlue investigated You’re telling me Trump is in power, the Democrats’ arch-nemesis, and they can’t fundraise? Just shows how rigged everything has been for many years Democrat fundraising was a money laundering scam and soon their vote rigging will be exposed too America is a 60-40 country, not 50-50 .

    The Democratic Doctors Caucus was interrupted by a barrage of tourists during a press conference outside the office of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., on Wednesday.(snip) The Democratic Doctors Caucus, comprised of the six Democratic physicians serving in the House of Representatives, planned a press conference in Statuary Hall, a room down the hall from the House speaker's office. Apparently noticing the large gaggle of reporters staking out Johnson's office amid last-minute member holdout negotiations, the caucus moved their press conference to right outside the speaker's office. Donning their white coats in the crowded hallway, the Democratic doctors began their...

    Dems are too clever by half. One cannot peruse X without reading a democrat whine about the treatment of illegal aliens. A host of democrat mayors and governors have pledged not to cooperate with ICE and the Feds but in so doing are actually helping Donald Trump deport those who have illegally broken into the country. MSNBC political Analyst Tim Miller claims that it's un-American for the Trump administration to deport illegal aliens. Was it also un-American to open our borders and let millions pour in over the last four years? This is one of Trump's strongest policies. Deporting people...

    A coalition of 20 Democratic attorneys general sued the Trump administration on Tuesday after federal health officials shared data about Medicaid recipients with the Department of Homeland Security. “The Trump Administration has upended longstanding privacy protections with its decision to illegally share sensitive, personal health data with ICE. In doing so, it has created a culture of fear that will lead to fewer people seeking vital emergency medical care,”*** The lawsuit challenges the decision of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services to provide access to individual personal health data to the Department of Homeland Security, which oversees Immigration...

    America stands at a crossroads. On one side, there’s Project 2025—a blueprint that threatens the foundations of our democracy, dismantles our institutions, and leaves everyday people behind.

    Colin Allred, a former U.S. Representative and ex-NFL linebacker, has announced he will run for U.S. Senate in 2026. Allred's run comes after he narrowly lost to Republican Sen. Ted Cruz in the November 2024 election. Allred, a Democrat, previously served three terms in the U.S. House of Representatives. What they're saying: "Washington is broken and the system is rigged — and Texas families are paying the price. Today I'm announcing I'm running for the U.S. Senate because Texans deserve someone who will fight for them," Allred said in a post to X. Who will Allred run against? Allred is...

    The fight over the future of the Democratic Party remains center stage in Pennsylvania, where Sen. John Fetterman continues to frustrate progressives while his Democratic colleagues and even potential rivals rally around efforts to blunt the Trump administration’s moves. Political operatives in both major parties told the Post-Gazette it’s too early to know how a 2028 Senate primary or general election might play out. But a poll from Susquehanna Polling and Research this past week suggests some Democrats are increasingly disappointed in the senator from Braddock, who remains one of Capitol Hill’s staunchest supporters of Israel, continues to needle his...

    I want to compile a list of all the ways democrats and the left have violated constitutional norms--including and especially unwritten norms--since Bill Clinton became president. Would also be interested in any ways you all think republicans and the right may have done the same. Example--Biden's DOJ put two of Trump's top advisors--Navarro and Bannon--in jail, violating an unwritten rule that you didn't jail people over political differences. Go.
