Speaking during an interview on ABC’s “The View,” Vice President Kamala Harris announced that she had a “mole” inside Fox News channel, a friend who has fed her insider information from Fox News, including on election night. The news came as she discussed finding out she failed on election night, but could hint at big problems for Fox News moving forward. For reference, former Vice President and failed 2024 presidential candidate Kamala Harris’s claims on the matter came when she appeared on “The View” on Tuesday, September 23. As she discussed finding out that she was going to lose, she...

When people such as Vivek Ramaswamy, a candidate for the Republican Party nomination in the 2024 US presidential election, call for decreasing aid to Israel, they are actually sending a message of support to the mullahs in Tehran and their proxies, Hamas and PIJ, as well as the Iran-funded Hezbollah terrorist militia in Lebanon and to nations that would like to see Israel and America "out of the way."For Israel's enemies, statements such as "cutting aid" are a sign that America is about to throw Israel under the bus, paving the way for them to proceed with their plan to...

America is currently sick. The young conservative organizer and media personality Charlie Kirk was just murdered in a political assassination by a 22-year-old ‘anti-fascist’ and trans advocate, Tyler Robinson. As planned, he eliminated the most astute and successful political activist in a generation. Indeed, Kirk may well have ensured that Donald Trump won the 2024 election by not just increasing his youth vote by 6 percent since 2020 but, more importantly, by margins in the swing states of 15-24 percent, ensuring Trump’s victory. No sooner was he killed than thousands on left-wing social media erupted in celebration—among them scores of...

The Harris-Biden administration is a boon to Putin. A Trump presidency will destroy all that. Wall Street Journal reporter Evan Gershkovich and former US Marine Paul Whelen, both of whom have been languishing in the Soviet, I mean, Russian prisons for years on trumped-up espionage charges, have been released. It appears that their release is part of a larger, multi-nation prisoner swap that includes the exchange of prisoners from Germany, Great Britain, the US, and Slovenia on the one side and Russia and Belarus on the other. The basis for the suspicion about the multi-national, multi-prisoner release is the sudden...

PHILADELPHIA – United States Attorney David Metcalf announced that two defendants have been charged separately with election fraud offenses, one in connection with the 2020 presidential election, and the other in connection with the 2024 presidential election.

A Venezuelan court granted an arrest warrant Monday for opposition presidential candidate Edmundo Gonzalez Urrutia, who claims to have rightfully won July elections that authorities awarded to incumbent Nicolas Maduro.The court, the prosecutor's office said on Instagram, had granted its request for a warrant for Gonzalez Urrutia for "serious crimes."The office had earlier published its request to the court on social media, in which it listed the alleged crimes that stem from the opposition's insistence that Maduro and his allies stole the July 28 presidential vote.

WASHINGTON — A watchdog investigation into former special counsel Jack Smith over his prosecutions of President Trump is based on an “imaginary and unfounded” premise, Smith’s lawyers wrote in a letter obtained by the Associated Press on Tuesday. The letter marks the first response by Smith and his legal team to news that the Office of Special Counsel, an independent watchdog office, had launched an investigation into whether Smith engaged in improper political activity through his criminal inquiries into Trump. The attorneys told Jamieson Greer, the acting head of the office, that his investigation into Smith was “wholly without merit.”...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris' announcement she was going on tour to promote her new book was ridiculed on social media Thursday. The book, "107 Days," is about Harris' short, failed 2024 presidential campaign against President Donald Trump. "107 Days is my candid and personal account of the shortest presidential campaign in modern history. Over the next few months, I will travel our country to share behind-the-scenes moments, lessons learned, and how we keep moving forward together. I'll see you out there," Harris wrote in a post on social media. The former vice president announced in July that the book...

After the great rebuke of 2024, many Democrats seem to think their party needs to become more moderate. But there’s another theory potent on the American left that believes Donald Trump’s election shows not just that American democracy is in danger, but that it doesn’t really work at all. What the country needs isn’t just a new policy agenda; it might need the kind of constitutional revolution — from adding new states, to packing the Supreme Court — that some Democrats already flirted with under Joe Biden. That’s the kind of argument that my guest today, Osita Nwanevu, makes in...

Nineteen retired generals, admirals, and former top civilian defense officials have filed a brief with the U.S. Supreme Court, opposing former President Donald Trump’s plea for immunity from prosecution, claiming that granting such a request would pose a significant threat to national security. The Supreme Court is set to deliberate on Trump’s presidential immunity argument on April 25, as reported by The Gateway Pundit. The Supreme Court will deliberate on whether a president can be shielded from legal consequences for actions taken while in office. The decision, which may not arrive until late June, according to analysts, has significant repercussions...

This 26 minute-long video was posted 8mos ago but I still love to watch it, along with similar videos. For the first half, the NBC commentators are ecstatic, convinced that Kamala Harris is going to win because... women, college students, Puerto Ricans, independents etc. are going to vote for her. They're virtually celebrating a Harris victory before any of the vote counts are known. Then the actual vote results started coming in...

The Office of Special Counsel has launched an investigation into Jack Smith for possible violations of the Hatch Act. Jack Smith was appointed as Special Counsel in 2022 by Joe Biden’s Attorney General Merrick Garland to investigate Trump just one day after Trump announced his 2024 bid for the White House. The Office of Special Counsel opened the investigation after Senator Tom Cotton earlier this week sent a letter alleging Jack Smith’s actions politically harmed Trump during the 2024 election. The New York Post reported: The Office of Special Counsel has launched a formal investigation into Jack Smith, the first...

The party is hoping to move on from its losses and look to the future — but its central figures from the last election keep stepping back into the spotlight.Former vice president Kamala Harris is promoting a book about her losing 2024 presidential campaign, leaving the door open to another White House bid in 2028 and building a group that would enable her to hit the trail for fellow Democrats in the midterms.Former president Joe Biden is set to deliver a speech in Chicago Thursday night as campaign books, congressional hearings and occasional sparring with President Donald Trump have kept...

After Trump’s Victory, There Can Be No Unity Without A ReckoningWe can’t just say ‘Oh well we’re all Americans in the end’ and pretend that everything is okay. Everything is not okay.Back in July after the first Trump assassination attempt, I wrote that there can be no national unity, no burying the hatchet or cooling the rhetoric with people who have been encouraging political violence and pushing assassination prep for years. You can’t smack someone in the face with a hammer and then insist everyone calm down.Trump’s election victory doesn’t change that. Those in the news media who spent years...

Former first son Hunter Biden faulted Democrats’ disloyalty to his father for the electoral drubbing they suffered last year and President Trump’s return to power. The younger Biden argued that Democrats squandered their advantages of incumbency and “an incredibly successful administration” — despite its record-low approval numbers — when they turned against his father in dramatic fashion last summer. “We lost the last election because we did not remain loyal to the leader of the party,” Hunter Biden said on former Democratic National Committee boss Jaime Harrison’s new podcast, according to excerpts. “That’s my position. We had the advantage of...

On Tuesday's Morning Joe, suggesting he had merely made a "mistake," Joe Scarborough said he "got it wrong" when "I talked about Biden at his best." No, Joe. You didn't make a "mistake." And it's not that you "got it wrong." You lied. You looked into the camera, and angrily lied to your viewers. As we noted at the time, you said: "Start your tape right now, because I'm about to tell you the truth. And f-you if you can't handle the truth. This version of Biden intellectually, analytically, is the best Biden ever. Not a close second. And I've...

File this one under, Ya Think? On Saturday's edition of MSNBC's The Weekend, co-host Eugene Daniels, interviewing the authors of a book about the 2024 election, mused: "Have we just underestimated Donald Trump's popularity with the American people?"Of course "we"—meaning the liberal media—underestimated Trump's popularity. They couldn't imagine that a majority of voters would support someone that the MSM had spent the previous eight years denouncing as Hitler redux, the proverbial "existential threat" to American democracy. Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

The walls are finally closing in on one of the Left’s dirtiest operations, and it’s about time. ActBlue, the Dem Party’s prized fundraising platform, is now officially facing serious heat after years of allegations about shady donations, money laundering, and foreign interference. Top executives have now been subpoenaed by Congress. There’s nowhere left to run. It appears that massive amounts of taxpayer money have been funneled through USAID and Dem-aligned NGOs. The money is missing, and allegations are that Biden’s Treasury Department was trying to cover it all up. It’s a really scary notion: the artery of the Dem fundraising...

This weekend, the US and Iran will hold their first semi-direct talks in years, despite the previous insistence of Ayatollah Ali Khamenei in barring such talks. What changed? First, the Iranian security situation has degraded rapidly over the last few months, thanks to their stupidity in attacking Israel directly as well as indirectly through their proxies. That has left the mullahs more exposed than ever before in their 46-year run as theocratic tyrants in Iran. That's not the only reason, the New York Times reports today. The Iranians may have finally realized that Donald Trump returned to office with the...

Laura Loomer @LauraLoomer It’s heating up. Will be interesting to see what Republican lawmakers do now. I know law makers who are asking if they should side with President Trump or Elon. I’ve been on the hill all day and it’s all anyone is talking about. The most powerful man in the world vs the richest man in the world. 12:30 PM · Jun 5, 2025
