Late night comedy’s all-out effort to drag Zohran Mamdani across the finish line in New York City’s upcoming mayoral election continued on Monday on Comedy Central with its most direct bit of campaigning. The Daily Show’s Jon Stewart welcomed Mamdani to tell him how much “I love hearing” about his campaign and to claim that he has been surprised establishment Democrats have not fallen in line behind him. Stewart insisted that he is not “blowing smoke,” but he clearly was, “And what I love hearing about this is, one of the things that has been so frustrating in our politics...

Israel has described the handover of further mortal remains of an already buried hostage as a clear violation of the Gaza Agreement by the terrorist organization Hamas. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu will discuss a response with the heads of the security authorities, his office announced. 28.10.2025. The remains handed over to Israel by Hamas belong to an Israeli whose body was brought to Israel by the army in the fall of 2023 and buried. Israeli media had previously reported that the body handed over on Monday evening was not a new hostage who was still missing. The news caused horror...

The only upside to living through this dark time is it pushes us to rethink and perhaps totally remake things we once thought immutable. Like the Democratic party. In case you hadn’t noticed, the current Democratic party is dysfunctional, if not dead. Better dysfunctional than a fascist cult like the Trump Republican party. But if there were ever a time when America needed a strong, vibrant Democratic party, it’s now. And we don’t have one. The brightest light in the Democratic party is Zohran Mamdani, the 34-year-old member of the New York state assembly who has a good chance of...

During an interview with CNN aired on Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Story Is,” California Gov. Gavin Newsom (D) said that New York City mayoral candidate Assemblyman Zohran Mamdani (D) isn’t bad for the Democratic Party and responded to a question on if democratic socialism belongs in the Democratic Party by saying the party needs to be a bigger tent and “you can disagree on certain issues. But when we fundamentally believe in the values of growth and inclusion and we believe in social justice, racial justice, economic justice, the things that bind us together, I think we’re all better...

The U.S. Department of Education recently announced a reorganization of its Federal Student Aid (FSA) ombudsman’s office into a broader “Office of Consumer Education and Ombudsman.” The aim is twofold: to provide clearer, more proactive information to prospective borrowers and their families before they sign promissory notes and to issue a new “common manual” for loan servicing and collections that standardizes practices across vendors. At first glance, the reform seems sensible. After all, with federal student-loan debt at $1.8 trillion and millions of borrowers delinquent or in default, something must change. Yet a closer look reveals that, while better information...

Democrats on the House Education and Workforce Committee expressed opposition Monday not just to layoffs that have occurred since the start of the government shutdown but also the Trump administration’s apparent lack of transparency about which federal employees are being laid off. “While relevant agencies have confirmed that their staff were impacted, government officials have provided little detail to Congress or the general public, leaving us to rely mostly on media reports and social media posts regarding the dismissal of staff from various agencies,” the lawmakers wrote in a Monday letter urging Office of Management and Budget Director Russell Vought...

SICK. Democrat Senator Dick Durbin compares ICE to Japanese internment camps. DURBIN: "There's only one parallel in history...the internment of 120,000 Japanese Americans during WWII."

Sky News host Rita Panahi says US President Donald Trump has set a “sizzling pace in Asia”. “Within hours of touching down, he had signed four trade deals, met regional leaders, met the Brazilian president, and presided over a historic peace deal between Thailand and Cambodia,” Ms Panahi said. “The president is getting it done in Asia. “The US and China have also agreed to a framework for a trade deal, with Donald Trump expected to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping this Thursday. “No one can keep up with him.”

Let's get EVERY Democrat - especially those in 50/50 districts to go on the record their position on Zohran Mamdani. "Do you repudiate Zohran Mamdani and his politics? YES OR NO?" He's a 'socialist' jihadist. Get them on record for future campaign ads. He's favored to win a major American city with no qualifications sending a signal of Jihad victory around the world. Let's get Democrats on record where they stand and make sure Zohran Mamdani is the face of their party for years to come as NY is headed for disaster if he takes power.

9mmSMG @9mm_smg This woman is threatening to eat us if EBT goes down.

Let's go back to churches helping. Government surplus cheese, corn, etc. #! expenditure for SNAP = soft drinks. Cut that out. Candy is top 20. As are 'bag snacks' like potato chips. Cut that out. Need to make the downsizing of the federal government permanent. We will also save on health care costs as the number one symptom of poverty these days is obesity. This also explains why Walmart heirs are giving big money to Democrats - to keep the bad health gravy train going. Other benefit of the continued shut down is people will downsize voluntarily from the federal...

Bolivia’s president-elect, Rodrigo Paz Pereira, has announced the country’s immediate withdrawal from the Bolivarian Alliance for the Peoples of Our America (ALBA), a regional bloc driven by the governments of Cuba and Venezuela. This decision, revealed during a press conference on October 25, 2025, not only represents a direct rejection of the principles that have supported authoritarian regimes in the region but also accelerates the organization’s imminent collapse, reducing it to a remnant of nations with ruined economies and systematic human rights violations. Paz, from the Christian Democratic Party (PDC), who will assume power on November 8 after winning the...

Gaslighting has become a science for Democrats during the current government shutdown. After years of flirting with falsehoods, they have turned into full-blown, bald-faced liars as they attempt to pin the carnage that is coming on Republicans because they “control” the House, Senate, and White House. Tarlov is not alone. Senator Mazie Hirono took to X on Monday to peddle the tired Democratic narrative that Republicans are to blame for the ongoing government shutdown. “Friendly reminder that Republicans control the White House, the Senate, and the House. This shutdown is entirely their fault,” Hirono posted, racking up thousands of likes...

Wharton Professor and noted economist Mohamed El-Erian appeared on Fox News to discuss the jaw-dropping success President Trump is having with his global trade reset. As noted by El-Erian no one, including El-Erian himself, expected President Trump to be able to navigate a global trade and economic reset with such stunning success. The entire economic policy is being driven by the personal influence of President Trump as he leverages tariffs and policy incentives to the benefit of the USA economy exclusively. The scale of Trump’s agenda is difficult to overstate, and China is now positioned to feel incredible pressure to...

Elbows Up Stengthens U.S. Tariff Resolve at Canada’s ExpenseThe disastrously misguided “Elbows Up” campaign championed by the Carney government rooted in the fantasy that a smug, arrogant Liberal elite wields leverage over the largest economy in human history, has suffered yet another devastating blow. The latest fallout: U.S.-based truck manufacturer Paccar Inc., maker of iconic heavyweights such as Kenworth and Peterbilt, is slashing Canadian production and laying off hundreds of workers in anticipation of a 25-per-cent U.S. import tariff set to take effect next month. Employees at Paccar’s Sainte-Thérèse, Quebec plant were informed Wednesday that the company will move production...

Zohran Mamdani’s aunt neither wears a hijab nor lived in NYC before, during, or after 9/11. In fact, she lived in Tanzania from January 2000 to December 2003. 🤔 pic.twitter.com/BTug7BohKT — The Persian Jewess (@persianjewess) October 26, 2025

"Watch Zeteo’s editor in chief Mehdi Hasan educate the Daily Wire’s Matt Walsh on the history of slavery, including Muslim slavery, in the United States; point out the many and varied contributions of Muslim Americans to this country; and debunk his lazy conservative talking points while laying out Walsh’s own long history of odious, bigoted, and unhinged views. (Have you heard his ridiculous and racist hot take on Disney’s The Little Mermaid? Well, you’re about to!)" Video is 8 mins. ‘I’m More American Than You’ - Mehdi unloads on Matt Walsh
