Hilton went on offense from the start, pressing Becerra on his record as attorney general and as Biden HHS secretary The debate Wednesday night on CNN was the only scheduled head-to-head between Xavier Becerra and Steve Hilton, moderated by Dana Bash and Jake Tapper. It was an hour long, with no studio audience. And Steve Hilton was up against three opponents. It was heated, got personal, and focused on California’s cost of living, the housing crisis, high taxes, illegal immigration, and AI. Anyone watching the debate between Becerra and Hilton, candidates for California Governor, could see that CNN’s Dana Bash...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, drew backlash from a former colleague for leaving James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Texas, off her list of endorsements Monday. Talarico, who beat Crockett in the party’s Senate primary earlier this year, was not among 14 candidates supported by Crockett’s Feuling Individual Rights Everywhere (FIRE) PAC. To former Rep. Susan Wild, D-Pa., who served three terms in Congress, the list is clear evidence Crockett is putting personal reservations over the party’s success in the Lone Star State. “F— her. That’s all I can say. And that statement has nothing to do with...

Dan Osborn, the Nebraska "Independent" Democrat-Party-endorsed candidate for U.S. Senate, just navigated what can only be described as a terrible, horrible, no good, very bad week last week, when he was caught on tape reducing Nebraska Trump supporters to people whose lives are miserable and hopeless. Osborn attempted to do damage control on CNN, but apparently he has failed to account for all his recorded statements out there that could get him in trouble. Newsflash: This week is not turning out any better. From our sister site, Townhall: Now, an exclusive video shows Dan Osborn admitting that he's not only...

Jesus is not your campaign surrogate. I don’t normally comment on political races, but when I see someone who is as fundamentally full of sh-t as James Talarico, I believe it is my duty to say something about it. James Talarico is now the Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate from Texas, having defeated Jasmine Crockett in the 2026 primary. He has discovered a political instrument more powerful than a Super PAC, more versatile than a focus group, and considerably harder to interview: Jesus Christ. After generations of right-wing Protestant pastors hijacking the message of Jesus and turning him into...

A Haitian illegal immigrant who went viral for a video of him shouting 'Biden forever' and 'F*** Trump' when he was arrested has been deported back to his homeland. Wisteguens Jean Quely Charles, 25, was detained by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in Boston in January. Authorities said the illegal migrant had a lengthy rap sheet of at least 17 convictions. An alleged member of the Back Block Money Gang, Charles' convictions included assault on a public employee, resisting arrest, possession of controlled substances and carrying a dangerous weapon.

“Everyone is retarded and nothing Works.” Turns out that’s the key to unlock the mystery of this particular Fourth Turning, the one here and now, of our own time. It’s an excellent theory of everything happening these days, formulated by a close colleague of mine. And as far as I know, it’s the only theory that makes sense. It explains, for example how and why consulting US attorney Joe DiGenova quit the grand jury investigation, as conducted by the DOJ in the Southern District of Florida (SDFL), of the treasonous conspiracy against the people of the USA running since 2016.The...

“[The 9/11 terrorists] weren’t cowards. But I’ll tell you who is. Democratic party politicians, and I’ll tell you why. Because nowhere has this moral confusion become more obvious than in a place called Gaza, a little strip of land that was not part of the original Israel but which they won in a war launched against them, but then gave back as a peace gesture,” Maher said. “Did they tell you that part on TikTok, kids?” “The people who run Gaza, Hamas, who you celebrate as a liberation movement but are really a terrorist mafia gang just like the one...

A professor of pan-African studies with a leadership role in Black Lives Matter urged her audience to “f— up” an officer with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Sunday, stating that there should be nowhere the agent could “go where they are comfortable.” Melina Abdullah, a professor of Pan-African studies at California State University, Los Angeles, identified the ICE agent by name, mentioning the hotel he was staying at. She urged her audience to “study guerrilla warfare” and use “every single tool in your toolbox.” “So, when I say f— him up—and I say f— Brian Palacios up, who may be...

Englishman in New York responds to Trump TDS and shows how Trump crushed Ford/Ontario.

Famed progressive CNN pundit Van Jones is blasting the far left for pushing “crazy ideas” and “turds” — while warning the mainstream of the Democratic Party is too worn down to rein in the extremists. “I’m a strong Democrat, with a winning bipartisan track record. I’m rooted in progressive ideals and policies: criminal justice reform, Green New Deal, Medicare for All, free education, clean air and water. These are ideas I have fought for my entire adult life,” Jones said on X over the weekend. “But some people in groups like the DSA are pushing an agenda FAR outside those...

There are some naked lies so offensive that profanity is valid response. Such is the case with Minnesota Governor and failed Vice Presidential candidate Tim Walz claiming that illegal alien pedophile rapist Tou Lue Vang shouldn’t have been deported because people shouldn’t be judged on their “worst day.” I’m pretty sure lots of people can remember their worst days: They got in a car wreck, they got fired, they found out their wife has cancer, their dog died. Raping a ten year old girl doesn’t qualify. “Honey, I got fired, wrecked the car, and, oh yeah, raped a ten year...

An American left-wing activist moved from New York City to Killarney, Ireland, five years ago, and now she’s dead. The woman’s name was Jamey Carney. She was a single mother of a thirteen-year-old and fit the typical stereotype of a white liberal woman from Manhattan. She hated ICE, loved Palestine, and moved to Europe, where she began a relationship with a migrant man. Jamey was found dead in her bed, hidden under a duvet by her teenage child. The migrant man she was involved with is nowhere to be found. Police officials are looking for him, and reports online suggest...

Former U.S. Navy SEAL Robert J. O’Neill. Credit: Wikimedia Commons =========================================================================== Legendary U.S. Navy SEAL Robert J. O’Neill won the Internet earlier this week with a line for the ages after being called a “f***ing p***y” online by a bunch of anti-Semitic propagandists. The exchange came after a video featuring pro-Islamist streamer Sneako went viral while he was celebrating Egypt’s World Cup win over Australia in New York City on Saturday. In the footage, he can be seen calling for Islam to dominate everywhere in America while horns blaze in the background. “This is the Islamic Republic of New Yorkistan,”...

Shocking surveillance video captured a brazen daylight stabbing in San Francisco’s Chinatown on Thursday — showing a hooded man casually walking up behind an apparent stranger before plunging a knife into his back.

Ragin' Cajun on X: "I am not a jingoist by any stretch of the word. Moreover, my daughter is on the USS Lincoln as we speak. I have skin in this game. I have read (and heard) a lot of BS about whether or not we should be in Iran. Let me be clear...I've been a SME on Iran for 25÷ years. I speak Persian Farsi, Dari, Balochi, and Tajik. I've been to Afghanistan, Iraq, Pakistan, and yes... Iran. There are few who know Iran as "intimately" as I do. The reasons for this war are nuanced and complicated, but...

"It's very clear that this administration is not interested in legal immigration," she told the publication backstage at the Target Center. “They're interested in violent theater," Carlile continued. "Violent theater and dominance over other people. I don't believe most people signed up for that. Even people who voted for Trump, who I'm angry with, I don't think they voted for this, and I do think that they can still change their minds."”

Speaking in New Delhi on Wednesday, France’s President Emmanuel Macron criticized social media companies over their pledged commitments to free speech and lack of algorithm transparency. “Some of them claim to be in favor of free speech. We are in favor of free algorithms, totally transparent,” Macron said. “Free speech is pure bulls**t if nobody knows how you are guided to this so-called free speech.” The remarks come as Macron and his government move to expand regulation of social media platforms in France. Paris is seeking to fast-track legislation that would ban social media access for children under 15 before...

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is looking to get the Big Apple on a tighter budget, and seems to see cuts to the New York Police Department (NYPD) as a way of getting the city back on track. Mamdani's predecessor, Mayor Eric Adams, proposed at the end of his term that the city hire 5,000 more NYPD officers. However, upon entering office, Mamdani moved to cancel all orders signed by Adams following his Sept. 26, 2024, indictment. This included the proposed NYPD personnel increase. Under Adams' plan, the NYPD was set to add 300 officers in July 2026, growing...

Lefty actor Mark Ruffalo ripped Kevin O’Leary in a blistering tirade after the “Shark Tank” host told Billie Eilish to “shut your mouth and just entertain” as she continues to face backlash over her anti-ICE Grammys rant. “Kevin O’Leary why don’t you STFU,” the outspoken Marvel actor raged on Threads Thursday night. “You will go on any show and talk -–- about any number of things and smugly expect us to listen to you, but you will dig into a real artist that dwarfs anything you dream of doing for actually saying something that resonates with 100’s of millions of...
