The all-American blue-eyed blonde with corn-fed curves has become a cultural phenomenon, her unashamed sexuality embraced by America’s conservative Right as proof that woke culture is dying, if not already dead.

Sydney Sweeney, a blonde-haired, blue-eyed knockout from the Heartland with a Christian upbringing and at least some MAGA-adjacent family members, is everything the woke left believes is wrong with America. Sweeney is a part of America’s nebulous systems of oppression. Thanks to her looks, she benefits from a system designed to benefit the women straight white men find attractive. Her mere existence is the reason why “marginalized” women can’t find success in Hollywood. Fewer Sweeneys, and more multiracial obese transgender women, the woke left demands.

A Republican truck driver who spent just $153 on his campaign and ran for office after he was denied a gun permit secured a stunning victory against the longest-serving legislative leader in New Jersey history in the state's elections - but the loser is disputing the results and claims more ballots were 'found' on Thursday. The election was held on Tuesday but Associated Press only called the race today after 100 percent of precincts had reported. Underdog GOP candidate Ed Durr delivered a humiliating defeat to Democratic Senate President Steve Sweeney in South New Jersey's 3rd Legislative District by a...

UPSET ALERT: GOP truck driver Edward Durr, who spent $153 on his campaign, leads incumbent Dem State Senate President Steve Sweeney.. In what could be the BEST story of the 2021 election cycle, Republican Edward Durr — a Harley-riding, Eagles fan and truck driver — is on the verge of defeating his Dem opponent, 7-term incumbent State Senate President Steve Sweeney after reportedly spending only $153 on his campaign: https://www.nj.com/politics/2021/11/live-election-results-nj-senate-assembly-races-2021.html

TRENTON — The state's top Democrat in the Legislature wants New Jersey voters and taxpayers to rise up and say: We're mad as hell and we're not gonna take it anymore!  State Senate President Steve Sweeney, D-Gloucester, who assembled a bipartisan economic and fiscal policy work group that issued recommendations this summer for pension and budget reforms, said that it’s become crystal clear that changes must be made because “our pension and health care system is not sustainable anymore, and raising taxes in this state is not the answer. This is a state that has a tax problem.”He said state...

The recent death of Jersey-born Antonin Scalia leaves the nation's highest court with just one justice born in Trenton, Sam Alito (who has a coffee blend named after him at Ward's in Newark). I suspect the rest of the country doesn't really care about that. What they do care about is the fight over whether the Republicans can keep that seat open until the new president takes office 11 months from now. Of course they can - at least if the actions of New Jersey's Democrats are any example. State Senate President Steve Sweeney has kept a seat on our...

Gerardo Hernandez, a spy for Communist Cuba and the man responsible for the murder of four humanitarian workers (three of whom were American citizens) over international waters, was freed from prison last year by the Obama administration, due in part to the Service Employees International Union (SEIU). This was revealed at a February 6, 2015, celebration of Hernandez’s release, along with two of his fellow Cuban agents (collectively known as the “Cuban 5.. At the beginning of the event, an IPS official thanked all who who took part in the 17-year campaign and singled out a number of organizations that...

Complete Title: The Soros Summit - Free Beacon exclusive: Inside the secret Miami meeting of George Soros’s liberal conspiracy ### A secretive network of left-wing billionaires and their political operatives descended on the luxurious Biltmore Hotel in Miami over the weekend to discuss strategy for the coming elections. The location of the conference had been kept a closely guarded secret by the members and guests of Democracy Alliance (DA), a collection of ultra-wealthy liberal donors formed in 2005, and is reported here in a Washington Free Beacon exclusive. Attendees roamed the grounds at the 150-acre tropical resort on their way...

TRENTON — Senate President Stephen Sweeney went to bed furious Thursday night after reviewing the governor’s line-item veto of the state budget. He woke up Friday morning even angrier. "This is all about him being a bully and a punk," he said in an interview Friday. "I wanted to punch him in his head." Sweeney had just risked his political neck to support the governor’s pension and health reform, and his reward was a slap across the face. The governor’s budget was a brusque rejection of every Democratic move, and Sweeney couldn’t even get an audience with the governor to...

Scott Brown has made this a race, he has a great biography and has received no help from the NRSC or the RNC as far as I know had given him $0 thru 12/31/09. They gave Scozzafava $900K and they won't give this guy a dime. They are worthless. It's like they want him to lose and let the Dems keep. What's Michael Steele talking about that he has raised all this money, he acts like it's his. I'm glad to see he's outraged about the Dem hypocrisy.

John Sweeney, stepping down after 14 years at the helm of the AFL-CIO, urged union leaders Sunday to keep up the fight to reform health care and overhaul labor laws so workers can form unions more easily. "We're on the cusp of the greatest advance in labor law reform in 70 years, but we're taking heavy fire from the corporate captains of deceit," Sweeney told about 1,000 union members at the federation's convention. He said efforts to pass health care legislation have been met with "a firestorm of meanness, stoked by politicians playing on fear, racism, nativism and greed."

SARATOGA COUNTY, N.Y. -- Former Congressman John Sweeney will appear in court later this week on a felony DWI charge. This is his second drunk driving arrest in 18 months.

CLIFTON PARK -- The wife of U.S. Rep. John Sweeney called police last December to complain her husband was "knocking her around" during a late-night argument at the couple's home, according to a document obtained last week by the Times Union. The emergency call to a police dispatcher triggered a visit to the couple's residence by a state trooper from Clifton Park, who filed a domestic incident report after noting that the congressman had scratches on his face, the document states. No criminal charges were filed. Gaia M. Sweeney, 36, told a trooper that her husband had grabbed her by...

ALBANY, N.Y. -- With less than three weeks to Election Day, Rep. John Sweeney still leads his Democratic challenger by double-digits, but the size of that lead has shrunk, according to a new poll released Thursday. Kirsten Gillibrand trails by 14 points in the poll conducted by the Siena College Research Institute. Sweeney, a four-term Republican GOP congressman, leads Gillibrand 53 percent to 39 percent among likely voters in the 20th congressional district, which stretches from the Albany suburbs north to Lake Placid.

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee started to show campaign commercials yesterday that attack United States Representative John E. Sweeney, an upstate Republican in a competitive re-election battle. Mr. Sweeney, who was first elected in 1998, is facing his first significant challenge since taking office, from Kirsten Gillibrand, a lawyer and political novice who has turned out to be a strong campaigner. The 30-second commercial is being shown on stations in Albany. The 20th Congressional District is a largely rural and suburban area that includes all or parts of 10 counties and stretches from Poughkeepsie to Lake Placid, going west toward...

SARATOGA SPRINGS, N.Y. — Only a few years ago, John E. Sweeney was a rising star in New York Republican circles, a streetwise political operative who helped engineer the 1994 victory of a little-known state senator, George E. Pataki, over Gov. Mario M. Cuomo before going on to take a seat in Congress. There, his combative brand of politics made him a favorite of national Republican leaders, including President Bush. But these days, with Congressional elections just six months away, Mr. Sweeney finds himself in the political battle of his life, as he faces his first significant electoral challenge since...
