Sen Kennedy warns Democrat 'loon wing' has 'fried' the party’s motherboard
Fox News ^ | April 15, 2026 | Madison Colombo

Sen. John Kennedy ripped the Democratic Party’s leadership Tuesday, claiming a "loon wing" of radical progressives has taken control with "nauseously woke" policies.

The Louisiana Republican joined "The Will Cain Show" to argue that many of his Democratic colleagues are afraid to challenge party leaders on the "foolishness" of their shift to the left.

"The Democratic Party is controlled by the loon wing. And that doesn't mean they're all, Democrats, a member of the loon wing, but the loon wing's in control," Kennedy said.

"Their motherboard is fried."

He described the far-left faction as being dominated by figures like Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and socialist New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani.

“Loon Wing” has some serious possibilities for great AI memes.

I would say in terms of Venn diagrams the loon wing is almost eclipsing the dim party.

It’s not just a loon wing. It’s the whole bird.

John Fetterman is the only somewhat sane Democrat in the entire US Senate. All the rest range from deranged to outright evil.

So, yeah. You’re right.

“claiming a “loon wing” of radical progressives has taken control with “nauseously woke” policies.”

And yet, the “loon wing” continues to dominate Republicans on policy issues that affect Americans. Republicans’ only response seems to be humorous but ultimately weak videos like this.

You forgot just plain cowardly. I’m sure there are quite a few Dems in government who don’t like the way their party is going, but they’re too scared to speak up. And maybe with good reason.

I suppose, as long as comedic relief is all you are looking for in a VP.

Senator JOHN Kennedy is my favorite senator ever.

I wish there were more like him.
