Kamala Harris has triggered further speculation that she is not running for governor of California and has higher political ambitions. Rumors of a 2028 White House run started circulating after she delivered a lackluster three-minute virtual address to the Democratic state political convention that was politely received by the audience. In a steady, monotone voice, she spoke about the Trump administration’s recent actions against universities and praised activists efforts to fight the president’s agenda. “While this administration in Washington tries to divide us, we hear know that we are stronger when we stand together,” she said, a flashback to her...

A new poll shows Democratic New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez being a favorite pick among Americans for the 2028 presidential race.

He has a new, carefully groomed beard. He bantered with bros for hours on an irreverent comedy podcast. And on Tuesday, he criticized the Trump administration through an appeal to patriotism in a state early on the presidential nominating calendar. Pete Buttigieg is inching back into the Democrats’ spotlight this spring with a series of appearances that have prompted speculation about how one of the party’s most evidently ambitious politicians might spend the lead-up to 2028. With Democrats still searching for a direction and a standard-bearer after November’s loss to President Trump, supporters of Mr. Buttigieg, a smooth-talking former mayor...

Democratic California Gov. Gavin Newsom on Monday ordered cities across the Golden state to start cleaning up its homeless encampments, stating that the "time for inaction is over" and that the state has a lot of federal funding to help with the efforts. California has become known for having the highest homeless rate in the country with 187,000 homeless people as of 2024, who largely occupy cities like Los Angeles and San Francisco. Los Angeles has the second highest homeless population in the country, behind New York City. Newsom laid out a plan to eliminate the homeless population from his...

The president has previously said he was looking into serving a third term. Democrats and others on the left melted down on Thursday after the official website for President Donald Trump began selling merchandise for a possible 2028 campaign. The president is prohibited by the Constitution from being president more than two four-year terms because of the 22nd Amendment. Trump's allies have hinted that his supporters may mount a campaign to undo the rule in order to allow him to serve for a third term. One shirt reads "TRUMP 2028" with the text "(Rewrite the Rules)" and sells for $36....

The official Trump store recently released a new 'Trump 2028 Hat,' and they are so popular that the site has a disclaimer noting the cap is in 'high demand' and additional processing might be required as they fly off the shelves. Bright red with bold white lettering, the cap is now on sale for $50. 'The future looks bright! Rewrite the rules with the Trump 2028 high crown hat,' the initial product description for the hat stated.

Sunday is a “clearing the spindle” day, and one of the things on my spindle has been Nate Silver’s prediction last week that Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, aka AOC, is currently the most likely person to be the Democrat party’s 2028 presidential candidate. Frankly, I think he’s right. She’s telegenic, has name recognition, and manages to make the same politics that killed tens of millions of people in the 20th century seem user-friendly. She’s also Bernie Sanders’ anointed heir, and he missed the nomination in 2016 and 2020 only because the Democrat party panicked. Last week, Nate Silver, while acknowledging that it’s...

President Trump’s former adviser Steve Bannon predicted Thursday that President Trump will go to prison if a Democrat wins back the White House in 2028. “God forbid we don’t win in ’28, President Trump is going to prison,” Bannon, who was Trump’s adviser in his first presidency, said Thursday during an appearance on Real America’s Voice. “And people are sitting around — still with the glow of Nov. 4 and all the inaugurations and all the balls. We’re at war, and things that’ve happened in the last 72 hours — if you don’t understand we’re in political warfare, you’re not...

Political strategists are not yet sold that Democrats rumored to be prospective 2028 presidential candidates have all that it takes to unite the party and retake the White House. Failed 2024 candidates Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, former Obama White House Chief of Staff Rahm Emmanuel, former Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg and a handful of Democrat governors — Gavin Newsom of California, Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, Andy Beshear of Kentucky and Wes Moore of Maryland — are all thought to be potentially sizing up runs for the White House in 2028 as Democrats try to fight their way out of...

Could the 2028 presidential campaign line up with Marco Rubio taking on Rahm Emanuel? That may or may not be what happens, but it’s what I am guessing will be what unfolds. The Democrat party is in dire need for a level-headed politician to emerge above the fray, and I suspect that will be Rahm. The problem that may pose for Republicans is that he was an important part of the Obama administration, and much of America probably still thinks of Barack as one of the good guys. Most voters failed to recognize that the “fundamental transformation of America” we...

Pete Buttigieg is expected to announce Thursday that he will not run for Michigan’s open Senate seat — leaving the door open for a widely expected presidential run in 2028, according to a report. The former Transportation Secretary, who earlier said he was “looking” at a Senate campaign to replace retiring Democrat Gary Peters in one of the most competitive seats in the 2026 cycle, plans to announce that he’s now not running at some point on Thursday, a person briefed on his decision told Politico. His decision was framed by allies as a move to put him in the...

VIDEONewsflash! In case you haven't already figured it out, Gavin Newsom was only PRETENDING to shift his opinion about biological men playing in women's sports during his new podcast interview with Charlie Kirk. Unfortunately for poor Gavin, his attempt to appear reasonable ended up as a case of being too clever by half since this has ENRAGED his looney base as you can see in the reactions to his PRETEND "shift" on this topic. Finally, for those few who still haven't figured out where Newsom is coming from, we have an analysis by someone very familiar with California politics who...

President Trump will sign an executive order Wednesday delivering on a key campaign promise to ban transgender athletes from girls’ and women’s sports, a directive that will also extend to trans athletes visiting the U.S. from abroad, a White House official said. The order, which Trump will sign at a ceremony in Washington, will target visas issued to transgender professional and elite athletes traveling to the U.S. to compete in women’s athletic competitions. Among other events, the U.S. is set to host the Summer Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028. “If you are coming into the country and you...

The Republican Party will find itself at a critical crossroads as the 2028 election approaches. Despite the doom and gloom narrative from Democrats, they are in a far stronger position than many in the GOP would care to admit. In fact, we believe Democrats are poised as favorites not only for 2028 but also for 2032. The reasons for this go beyond rhetoric — they are deeply rooted in history and strategic realities. The Democrats’ potential dream team could be Pennsylvania Gov. Josh Shapiro (D) at the top of the ticket with Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D) as his running...

Nothing can be said for certain, except death, taxes — and now, speculation about AOC running for president. The latest round comes courtesy of a Black Friday story in The Hill about contenders for the Democratic nomination in 2028. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was thrown in as the 11th and last name, a fun little kicker. “She’s somebody who can cut through the noise and doesn’t talk like Washington,” an anonymous Democratic strategist told The Hill. AOC for president hype started three weeks after she first took office in 2019 when Axios found three-quarters of Dems would consider voting for her...

"I'm going to put it very simply: the president of the United States has the authority to do what the president has the authority to do, which is very powerful. The president of the United States calls the shots," Trump said Monday evening, pressed on his claim during a news briefing at the White House. He continued: "When somebody’s the president of the U.S., the authority is total, and that’s the way it’s gotta be." But experts — and the Constitution — say Trump is wrong. The authority to require businesses to close in a public health crisis is what...

California is about to become home to the nation’s second electric vehicle-charging roadway — with construction due to be completed ahead of the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles. The multimillion dollar UCLA project, funded with state grant moneys, will concentrate on a half-mile stretch of road in Westwood, according to the Los Angeles Times. And it will come as the university prepares to host the Olympic Village — where all of the competing athletes stay during the games. “A wireless inductive option is a game changer,” Clinton Bench, director of the UCLA Fleet and Transit, told the Times. “When a...

While polls of Democratic primary voters have been showing that they supposedly want Vice President Kamala Harris to run again, there's a new name out there, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), a member of the far-left Squad. On Friday morning, The Hill put out an analysis of potential 2028 Democratic candidates, with Harris topping that list of seven candidates, and AOC closing it out. As their blurb on the congresswoman read:When Democrats talk about the future of the party, the 35-year-old New York congresswoman’s name always bubbles to the top.Democrats have long been impressed with Ocasio-Cortez’s ability to “cut through the...
