BlueAnon is not doing well this week. [Warning: Language] VIDEO AT LINK................ The newest conspiracy theory on TikTok is that Ice is loading up illegals on cargo planes and tossing them in the ocean. This is Trump Derangement Syndrome level 1,000 😂😂😂 pic.twitter.com/YOrbMIxjSg— Vince Langman (@LangmanVince) July 1, 2025I'm not sure what's funnier. This: They're throwing the deportees out of the planes and throwing them into the ocean... Or this: Actual leftist good values... Or the fact that half of her very important video is spent talking about how she's obviously being shadowbanned so she can't warn people about Literally...

A CBS News documentary blasted America’s supposed transition to a so-called “Gilded Age” of oligarchs to attack President Trump and the tech leaders who stood with him at his inauguration. As if CBS stood for Channeling Bernie Sanders. The problem: The documentary conveniently excluded any mention about the most notorious left-wing billionaires in U.S. politics that have used their cash to either try to buy elections or drastically overhaul U.S. policy over the years. Coincidence? We think not.

I am thrilled to announce that I will be traveling to one of my favorite places in the World, beautiful Iowa, on Thursday, July 3rd, to kick off the very beginning of our exciting Celebration of America’s 250th Anniversary! Iowa voted for me THREE TIMES, because they love my Policies for our Wonderful Farmers and Small Businesses, and they LOVE AMERICA! This will be a very special event, honoring our Great Country, and our Brave Heroes who fought to keep us FREE. You can RSVP to join me here — See you there! I’ll also tell you some of the...

Most readers would agree, I think, that it is desirable to keep politics out of K-12 classrooms. And one would be hard-pressed to find anyone who favors having universities force secondary students to “learn” a particular political agenda. Yet that is what almost transpired in California this past spring. The story of how this came about, and the (at least partial) success of efforts to stop it, is one worth telling. Courses in “ethnic studies” have become a popular offering at high schools across much of the United States. In some school districts, taking a course in ethnic studies is...

Indonesian officials said on Monday they will begin easing import restrictions and licensing requirements ahead of the July 9 deadline for U.S. tariff negotiations. Members of President Prabowo Subianto’s government promised to deregulate, streamline the bureaucracy, and reduce non-tariff import barriers as part of trade negotiations with the United States. At a press conference on Monday, Coordinating Minister for Economic Affairs Airlangga Hartarto said restrictions would be eased on ten groups of commodities over the next two months. “There are measures we’ve already implemented, and others will depend on the outcome of the tariff negotiations,” he said. Airlangga also said...

NEW — Senator Chris Murphy: Zohran Mamdani — A self-described Democratic Socialist — has an "economic message" that "is the future of the [Democratic] Party."

VIDEOThe first Mark Carney you see in this video is the Mark Carney that Liberals in Canada THOUGHT they would be getting. A tough talking Mark Carney who is not at all shy about talking Smack about Donald Trump. Of course that Mark Carney turned out to be a complete illusion and can only be seen thanks to the technological miracle of AI. Unfortunately for them, the second Mark Carney you see is the REAL Mark Carney who immediately caved on implementing a digital services tax when Big Daddy Trump demanded that he do so.Yes, the AI Mark Carney is...

The end of the US as a free capitalist country is in sight. I thought the Islamification of the country would take two generations, but it's accelerating now. And few are paying attention. Zohran Mamdani, the rich boy from Uganda running for mayor of New York City is merely one of warning signs but Islamic power is growing and fast. I've posted this before, but it bears repeating. You must pay attention to a few things. click to view videoHe says he wants "equality and respect." But he doesn't want to earn them. He wants to win them. (4:30) He...

If you, like me, thought you could take it for granted that the Walz administration would not hire a convicted sex offender to *audit* the Department of Education, you were wrong.

Just when you think CNN’s Jake Tapper can’t become an even bigger media hack than he already is, he finds a way to prove you wrong. The latest incident of the network host’s shoddy conduct as a so-called “journalist” came on Friday during his interview with New York City Mayor Eric Adams. Among the topics covered during the exchange was the Big Apple’s upcoming mayoral contest, which will pit Adams against the newly nominated Democrat candidate, radical socialist Zohran Mamdani. When the conversation shifted to the race against Mamdani, Tapper — whose network a jury found is actually fake news...

Economists say freer trade benefits everyone—even trade with China. America gets cheap goods and China gets money. Win-win. Even if we assume America benefits—which is a false assumption as proven in my book Reshore—China has clearly benefited more. For example, China’s economy has grown by an average of 8.12% since joining the World Trade Organization since 2001—about four times greater than America’s. China and America benefited asymmetrically from trade. Asymmetry may not be a problem economically, but it is a problem politically. Why? Power is zero-sum. The strong China grows, the weaker America becomes relative to China. As such, trade...

The chief obstacle in preparing these pilots so far has been language training. The cockpit audio system of the F-16 that provides important warning messages to the pilot only “speaks” English. Any pilots not completely fluent in the language will be handicapped—and possibly also in danger—if they lack the required level of fluency.

In the Louvre there’s a famous painting by the French Artist Jacques-Louis David depicting the Intervention of the Sabine Women. In it the Sabine men, whose daughters were stolen by and then married to Romans in the mid-8th century BC, returned to avenge Roman treachery and retrieve their offspring. The scene depicts a woman standing between the belligerents, imploring them to cease fighting: "If you are weary of these ties of kindred, these marriage-bonds, then turn your anger upon us; it is we who are the cause of the war, it is we who have wounded and slain our husbands...

Hen Mazzig @HenMazzig: Death to the IDF isn’t about people. Death to America means death to imperialism. For people who throw around strong words all day, they sure struggle to say what they actually mean. Watch my debate with Taylor Lorenz on @PiersUncensored @piersmorganJul 1, 2025

As Twitchy readers know, suspected Idaho gunman Wes Roley allegedly set a fire, contacted first responders, and proceeded to shoot three firefighters, two of whom sadly passed away. And of course, the usual suspects on the Left found a photo of Roley's stepfather, who happens to be a Trump supporter, and proceeded to blame MAGA and, of course, Trump himself. We would think that by now, our pals on the Left would have learned to observe the 24-hour rule, but they're so determined to make every terrible thing MAGA's fault that they can't help themselves. That, or they're all just...

The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) has decided that face masks will be strongly encouraged rather than required for their August 2025 national convention. This slight move to allow a small bit of individual choice was harshly condemned by the Democratic Socialists of Maine (DSM). "The National Political Committee's decision to make masking optional, despite years of advocacy from DSA's Disability Working Group puts members at risk, and has already had an impact on our delegation," said a name-witheld-on-request spokesperson for DSM. "COVID is still a threat to the working class in 2025, and to deny this would be a...

Police arrested 39 people in connection with the Chicago Pride Parade and its aftermath between Sunday evening and early Monday, including five individuals who were illegally carrying firearms, according to the Chicago Police Department. One man charged with weapon possession was allegedly carrying two guns. Of the 39 arrested, 13 individuals, including two juveniles, were charged with felonies, while 21 face misdemeanor charges, and one person received citations, a police spokesperson said. Charges were still pending against four people as of midday Monday.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio has pushed America-First, anti-terrorism, law and order into the center of the tourist visitor filter. Unstable extremists need not apply for visas to enter the USA, and anyone creating a social disturbance is subject to visa cancellation. This is the same standard of behavior that is applied by all other countries for U.S. tourists in foreign visits; however, as Marco Rubio and the U.S. State Department enforce this expectation the domestic extremists and agitators are extremely agitated. The latest example comes from a British punk/rap duo who decry American colonialism, profess severe antisemitism and promotion...
