Former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) just revealed some shocking gossip about a well-known Democrat “diva” in Washington. During an interview with Fox News host Jesse Watters, McCarthy shared a story about a high-profile Democratic congresswoman from Texas who was ultimately banned for life from a major airline. McCarthy explained that a few years ago, the lawmaker was boarding a flight when, after the doors had closed, she decided she needed to make one more phone call and stepped off the plane. McCarthy said the Democrat began pounding on the door, resulting in the pilot taking her phone. "They closed...

So she's now calling her own staffers racist and sexist? LOL. The NYP is reporting that staffers for Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett are BLASTING her for being a "diva" who mistreats staff and is "focused almost exclusively on being an influencer" instead of being a member of congress. "She is laying around her apartment, won’t come into the office" “I don’t want to hear Jasmine Crockett talk about helping black women when she just fired one for no reason!” “The only person that she thinks about and cares about is herself." "She doesn’t care about the local issues happening in...

WASHINGTON — Rep. Jasmine Crockett has positioned herself as an unfiltered critic of President Trump, earning regular TV appearances and an enthusiastic online following, but congressional aides tell The Post that the Dallas Democrat is just as “rude” and mean to her own staff. The liberal loudmouth, 44, has rocketed to fame since taking office in January 2023 as a fiery antagonist of the Republican president and his allies. But three sources who have worked with or for Crockett say she’s rarely present when TV cameras aren’t rolling — and terrorizes staff when she does appear. Crockett is not often...

If a gang of white people stalked and beat a black couple on the streets of Cincinnati, we all know what would happen. Politicians would be wearing kente cloth scarves, taking knees, begging for forgiveness that white people exist, and preparing scaffolds for the perpetrators. There would be marches, speeches, yet another national reckoning on race, and endless think pieces in The Atlantic, The New York Times, and a 60,000-word essay in The New Yorker about the horrors of white supremacy in America. But in this case, the perpetrators were black thugs and the victims a middle-aged white couple, so...

The family of one of the Cincinnati brawlers claimed the only reason the fight has garnered so much attention was because the person punched in the face is a white woman.

Cincinnati's shame. The shame was not that a group of youths viciously attacked a couple while laughing and filming the event. The acts were cruel and shameful, had these youths been capable of shame, but such attacks can take place in any large city. They are disgusting and symbolic of a sickness in our society, ... what was shameful was the Police Chief ... Evil things happen because human beings have evil within them. Most people don't act on their darker impulses or learn as they grow up how to sublimate the wolves within their souls. But certain people, and...

Chaos once again erupted at a New York City courthouse on Friday as ICE agents arrested an illegal alien at the Ted Weiss Federal Building.

The judge who oversaw the trial of Derek Chauvin has given an explosive interview as he spoke out for the first time in four years. Peter Cahill was in charge of proceedings in 2021, when jurors spent three weeks listening to testimony about the death of George Floyd on May 25, 2020 in Minneapolis, Minnesota. Floyd, an unarmed black man, had been suspected of using a counterfeit $20 bill in the lead up to the fatal run-in with Chauvin and three other officers. Restraining Floyd, Chauvin knelt on his neck and back for what officials later deemed was over 9...

How much did this cost the American taxpayer?

Additionally, four bulletproof vehicles and three SUVs were waiting outside of The Polo Bar for Kamala Harris and her husband. The pair reportedly made an appearance at The Polo Bar ahead of Monday’s star-studded Met Gala. The New York Post reported: Kamala Harris took more than two dozen bodyguards, including taxpayer-funded Secret Service agents to dine out with husband Doug Emhoff enjoyed...

While residents of western Connecticut were cleaning up from deadly floods this past August, Democratic Rep. Jahana Hayes slurped down oysters, pampered herself at a pricey salon and traveled to Martha’s Vineyard and the Democratic National Convention in Chicago — spending nearly $13,000 in the process, Federal Election Commission (FEC) filings show. The three-term incumbent flew to the Windy City just as her home state was hit with a severe storm on Sunday, Aug. 18, which caused more than $206 million in damages to bridges, roads, businesses and homes due to flooding, mudslides and landslides. More than 100 residents were...

Convicted fraudster and former Baltimore District Attorney Marilyn Mosby will avoid jail time for perjury and mortgage fraud after facing up to 40 years in prison.

Don't take a swing if you aren't ready to absorb a punch. That's a lesson Fani Willis is learning the hard way. Insulated in the far-left bubble of Fulton County, Willis truly believed she was untouchable. So untouchable that she thought she could bring a ludicrous RICO case against a former president while not having her own house in order, and boy, is her house not in order. As RedState has reported extensively on, Willis is currently caught up in a corruption scandal involving the use of state funds to pay the man she was having an affair with. Now,...

Harvard University’s chief diversity and inclusion officer has been hit with dozens of plagiarism allegations tied to her academic work — including one claim she failed to properly cite her own husband’s study. The Ivy League school was handed an anonymous complaint on Monday listing at least 40 examples of alleged plagiarism by Sherri Ann Charleston dating back to 2009 — a decade before she joined Harvard, the Washington Free Beacon reported. The allegations, which include failing to properly cite other scholars’ work and not referencing them in footnotes, come just weeks after Harvard University president Claudine Gay resigned from...
