Democrats, if you’re wondering why America voted for Trump, allow me to explain: The truth is, the American People are sick of your shit. You ruined our nation and our culture. You openly mocked, belittled, and discriminated us, then called us racist, misogynist, Nazis when we started noticing. You defiled and corrupted all of our great institutions, to include the media, social media, tech, academia, intelligence, health, pharma, Hollywood, entertainment, sports, EVERYTHING! You weaponized every aspect of American life, and used it to push your insane far-Left agenda down our throats. You told us Trump was a Russian asset that...

On Thursday’s broadcast of “CNN News Central,” Rep. Gregory Meeks (D-NY) stated that voters “were looking at the short-term situation of their immediate lives and not looking at the long-term ramifications of what a second Trump administration would do, particularly for them,” and inflation was caused by the pandemic “after Barack Obama gave Donald Trump a good economy.” And “the next president will be inheriting a good economy.”

Brian Hook, Donald Trump’s special envoy for Iran during the president-elect’s first term in office, said Thursday that his former boss has “no interest in regime change” in Tehran but does seek to isolate and weaken the Islamic Republic, and that the administration’s “deal of the century” peace plan for Israel’s conflict with the Palestinians will likely be back on the table once Trump returns to the White House in January. Without asserting any insider knowledge, the former State Department official said that the incoming commander-in-chief’s foreign policy intentions are “hidden in plain sight,” pointing to Trump’s decisions during the...

A depressed and demoralized Democratic Party is beginning the painful slog into a largely powerless future, as its leaders grapple with how deeply they underestimated Donald J. Trump’s resurgent hold on the nation. The nationwide repudiation of the party stunned many Democrats who had expressed a “nauseous” confidence about their chances in the final weeks of the race. As they sifted through the wreckage of their defeats, they found no easy answers as to why voters so decisively rejected their candidates. In more than two dozen interviews, lawmakers, strategists and officials offered a litany of explanations for Vice President Kamala...

After years of internal strife, it was a dispute about economic policy that finally toppled the German government. Now Europe is facing months of political paralysis just as its many simmering crises are coming to a boil. With both France and Germany led by minority governments, the continent’s key powers are facing months of impotent introspection as challenges pile up, from a hostile second Trump administration to the economic headwinds from China and Russia’s steady advances in Ukraine. The political currents tossing governments across Europe are similar to those that propelled Donald Trump to win back the presidency, the Senate...

Sir Keir Starmer said allies must “step up” support for Ukraine, as he met the country’s president amid uncertainty about the future of US backing for Kyiv after Donald Trump’s election victory. The Prime Minister told Volodymyr Zelensky the UK had an “unwavering” commitment to help the country defend itself against Russia’s invasion during bilateral talks at a European Political Community summit in Hungary. Sir Keir also said the deployment of North Korean troops to Russia was “proof of Putin’s increasing desperation” and that the UK would stand with Ukraine “for as long as it takes for Russia to withdraw”....

During Trump's first administration, California filed over 100 lawsuits contesting the president's actions. Standing in the Presidio in San Francisco, his shoulders aligned with the Golden Gate Bridge, California Attorney General Rob Bonta announced Thursday that the state is prepared to defend its values against the challenges brought by a second Trump administration. "I don't think there's anything that the Trump administration won't try in pursuit of its ends and goals, so we have to be prepared for anything," said Bonta. "Mr. Trump repeatedly overstepped his authority between 2016 and 2020. There's no reason to think he won't do it...

Sen. Bob Casey (D-PA) and Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) have come out as election deniers now that the Associated Press called the Pennsylvania U.S. Senate race in favor of Republican Dave McCormick on Tuesday. “Republican David McCormick has won Pennsylvania’s pivotal U.S. Senate seat, as the former CEO of the world’s largest hedge fund beat three-term Democratic Sen. Bob Casey in Tuesday’s election after accusing the incumbent of supporting policies that led to inflation, domestic turmoil and war,” the AP announced

MSNBC's Joe Scarborough has claimed 'racist Hispanics' and 'sexist black men' are to blame for Kamala Harris' electoral loss. The Morning Joe host made the controversial claim on Wednesday as he discussed Donald Trump's landslide win for the White House. Speaking to rev Al Sharpton, Scarborough - who earlier appeared to accept the result - said 'Democrats need to be mature, and they need to be honest. Scarborough, an ex-Republican, continued his rant: 'but is not just misogyny from Hispanic men, from black men, '[There] might be race issues with Hispanics that don't want a black woman president of the...

In another intense exchange on The View, the hosts argued over induced abortion with two of the pro-abortion hosts making the bold claim that their opinions on abortion are no different than those who consider themselves pro-life. Whoopi Goldberg — who has admitted to having six to seven abortions between the ages of 14 and 25, and continues to advocate for it — went so far as to claim, “We’re all pro-life. None of us want to kill anyone.” The exchange The conversation began with talk of Donald Trump and his recent comment that he will protect women “whether [they]...

In a historic precedent, West Virginian voters passed Amendment 1. Amendment 1 bars doctors, health care providers or and others from participating in assisted suicide, euthanasia or mercy killing. Mary H. Tillman, JD, Legislative Coordinator for the West Virgina Alliance for Ethical Health Care, said, “The WV Alliance for Ethical Health Care, West Virginians for Life, and organizations that advocate for the rights of persons living with disabilities celebrate the successful passage of Amendment 1.” “Following the strong example of our legislators who voted by overwhelming majorities, the voters of West Virginia have now also shown their belief that all...

Kamala Harris delivered a concession speech at Howard University in Washington, DC, on Wednesday, several hours after media outlets called her decisive 2024 loss to now-President-Elect Donald Trump. “My heart is full today,” Harris said to her supporters. “Full of gratitude for the trust you have placed in me, full of love for our country, and full of resolve.” “The outcome of this election is not what we wanted,” she said, “not what we fought for, not what we voted for.” “Hear me when I say,” the failed Democratic nominee added, “the light of America’s promise will always burn bright...

Multiple exit polls show that President-elect Donald Trump won the Catholic vote by a wide margin in Tuesday’s election – posting the strongest performance among Catholics for a Republican nominee since Ronald Reagan. In the past several election cycles, Catholics as a whole have emerged as an important swing voting bloc – and the candidate who wins their vote has almost always gone on to win the presidency. In 2020, Joe Biden bested Trump among Catholics by five points, per Gallup. One exit poll from The Washington Post (WaPo) found that Catholics across the country backed Trump over failed Democratic...

Since Donald Trump lost the 2020 election, a vocal subset of his supporters have been shouting online about the specter of voter fraud. On Tuesday night, however, as Trump’s 2024 victory came into focus, the noise died down. According to reports by The New York Times and Washington Post, social media accounts associated with election denial decided that, actually, everything was in working order. Thanks to their efforts, of course. “Shoutout to you all for keeping this election from being stolen this year, you are all heroes!“ one member of X’s “Election Integrity Committee” wrote. Speaking to the Times, Cleta...
