It is now so common for leftists, indeed most Democrats, to call Trump supporters Nazis that it's easy to shrug and move on. Unfortunately, as much as we would like to think it is a mere rhetorical flourish, it is not one at all. If you think that Democrats aren't serious when they propose what sound like insane measures, just remember what they did during COVID, what they are doing with alphabet ideology (literally sterilizing and mutilating kids and putting sex offenders into girls' locker rooms), and what they did to President Trump before his reelection. They are quite serious...

Ten days and counting of anti-ICE riots outside New Jersey’s Delaney Hall. Threats made to the safety of performers booked for a national celebration of America’s 250th birthday. We could be in for another long, hot summer of leftist violence. Last week rocker Bret Michaels pulled out of the planned Freedom 250 State Fair in Washington, DC, citing “concerns” regarding “the safety of my fans, band, crew, family and myself, including threats that are completely unfounded and unforgivable.” An earlier Freedom 250 event was marred by vandalism, NBC News reported Tuesday, when saboteurs cut fuel lines and contaminated the National...

What's happening at Delaney Hall in Newark is atrocious. Especially atrocious is the government's response. It's freaking impotent and it only encourages the vermin. Protests at Delaney Hall began around May 22. The violence and rioting have only increased since then. Mikie Sherrill, the idiot Governor, blamed ICE, not the protesters, for the violence immediately. "My top priority is keeping New Jerseyans and our communities safe – and an increased ICE surge in the area outside of Delaney Hall is a threat to public safety. We know that lives would be at risk were that to happen. And I will...

An anti-ICE agitator received a harsh lesson after deciding to get rough with New Jersey state police during a protest. On Saturday night, independent journalist Oliya Scootercaster was on scene at the Delaney Hall ICE detention facility in Newark, which has been the site of multiple leftist riots over the past several days. And these protesters are well-provided for. As The Gateway Pundit reported, independent journalist Nick Sortor, who blew the lid off years of taxpayers’ abuse at the hands of Somali fraudsters, infiltrated an Antifa camp at the Newark, New Jersey, ICE protests. As he moved through the camp,...

Schools and colleges should be places where all students can learn, grow, and build their futures -- not traps for deportation. Yet, every single day, immigrant students and families across the country are being forced to live with uncertainty and fear. DACA recipients are facing renewal delays that put their futures at risk. Students are navigating growing attacks on immigrant communities and higher education while ICE continues to threaten the safety of our neighborhoods, colleges and public schools. That’s why Communities for Our Colleges, a project of the National Campaign for Justice, is kicking off the ICE Out of Our...

Record-low trust in institutions, deepening regional and cultural divides, political violence, and a populace increasingly viewing opponents as existential enemies is a warning of worse to come. Rudyard Lynch, the sharp-eyed analyst behind the YouTube channel WhatifAltHist, has issued sobering warnings about America’s trajectory. Drawing on historical patterns of civilizational stress, elite overproduction, cultural fragmentation, demographic pressures, and fading social trust, Lynch argues that the United States faces a high risk of internal conflict or civil war. His theory resonates because the data is hard to dismiss: record-low trust in institutions, deepening regional and cultural divides, sporadic political violence, and...

New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill, who earlier embraced protesters outside a federal immigration detention center in Newark, acknowledged early Sunday that some had engaged in “dangerous actions” against local police as escalating violence forced the city’s mayor to impose an emergency curfew. Protesters grew increasingly aggressive Saturday night as they threw projectiles, grabbed security barriers and set fires outside ICE’s Delaney Hall facility. Mayor Ros J. Baraka admitted some were arrested in possession of weapons, necessitating the curfew. The escalating violence created an embarrassment for Democrats like Sherrill who had embraced the protests just 24 hours earlier and asked ICE...

WOW!!! After violent leftist rioters were cleared outside of Newark ICE detention center by police, the supplies left behind by them are STAGGERING! Who is funding all of this?! It certainly looks like a massively organized operation, not a 'grass roots campaign' that just sprang up... Of course the MSM will NEVER LET YOU SEE THIS................. 1:43 VIDEO AT LINK..........

Democrats are building a foundation for the obliteration of the Second Amendment. In the Heller and Bruen decisions, the Supreme Court ruled the Second Amendment acknowledges, but does not create, a fundamental, unalienable, individual right. Unalienable rights are bestowed by God; government cannot give or take them. The Court also ruled Americans may carry guns—mostly concealed handguns--wherever they go, with some exceptions such as courtrooms, jails, law enforcement facilities, and other “sensitive” areas. An equally important ruling was that guns in common use are presumptively constitutional. Those decisions made Democrat heads explode and contributed mightily to their cries of Supreme...

A real autopsy from the party would have concluded that voters rejected Democrats in the last election because of their anti-American policies. It was the anticlimax of the year when last week Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin finally released his party’s “autopsy” analyzing what led to its spectacular failure in 2024. It’s almost 200 pages long, but I’ll save you some time: There’s nothing in it about the Democrat Party’s fundamentally anti-American positions and therefore no indication that Democrats are interested in adapting to voters; rather, they’re still dead-set on physically eliminating their opposition. The report’s debut was...

The scene outside Delaney Hall detention center turned chaotic again Friday night with more clashes between anti-ICE protesters and agents – despite New Jersey Gov. Mikie Sherrill’s attempt to establish a “peaceful” protest zone. The mob throughout the evening continued their vile chants and ignored orders from police to disperse or face arrests as law enforcement used tear gas and pepper spray to restrain the unruly crowd, according to footage. “Kill yourself, quit your job, quit your job,” the rabble-rousers chanted at one point. “F—k ICE,” they barked, labeling federal officers as “murderers.” ICE agents were seen reaching into crowds...

In the crowded Democratic field running to replace Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers, there’s a surprising frontrunner for a battleground state: a democratic-socialist line cook who has called to abolish the police. Francesca Hong, a 37-year-old restaurant owner and single mother who became the state’s first Asian-American assembly member in 2021, has surged to the lead in several early polls after launching a long-shot bid on a deeply progressive platform. Hong is part of an array of lefty candidates with working-class credentials running in competitive states and districts up and down the ballot in this year’s midterm elections — a crop...

The No Kings movement has announced a nationwide event on 14 June, directly counter-programming Donald Trump’s 80th birthday celebrations and a Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) bout on the south lawn of the White House. The centerpiece is a 90-minute concert at New York’s Town Hall featuring entertainer Bette Midler, songwriter Patti Smith, actor Jane Fonda, musician Rufus Wainwright and commentator Joy Reid – streaming free nationwide, while local groups host watch parties across the country. The event is co-presented by the Committee for the First Amendment, a coalition of artists and cultural figures, and frames the US’s 250th anniversary as...

These are not 'protesters', they are a left wing militia group engaging in INSURRECTION!................. Tents, food, drink, medical supplies........... SHORT VIDEO AT LINK................

Democrats and liberal media seem to be constantly taking issue with anything President Donald Trump does, regardless of the merits of his actions. But they've now truly jumped the shark with their Trump Derangement Syndrome when they're objecting to Trump cleaning up fountains and monuments around Washington, D.C. Our sister site Townhall reported on some of the interesting reaction. Here's the account that used to be the Kamala Harris Headquarters account, terming things like spending on the Reflecting Pool, Trump "vanity projects." New reporting reveals the Trump admin has used $67,000,000 of National Parks entrance fees to fund Trump's vanity...

Dramatic video shows a garbage truck driver going off on anti-ICE protesters outside Newark’s Delaney Hall immigration center after they blocked him from carrying out his work — as Antifa thugs battled agents on yet another night of chaos. “What’s wrong with ya all?” the infuriated driver yelled at the demonstrators Wednesday night in the video from Freedom News. The man continued yelling at demonstrators protesting against conditions inside the New Jersey detention facility. Chaotic scenes unfolded outside Delaney Hall — with immigration agents hitting unruly demonstrators with batons. The anti-ICE protesters started gathering outside the center — many of...

Controversy has erupted in Tennessee after a viral TikTok video showed an angry woman vandalizing her neighbor’s property by removing a sign that simply expressed their support for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and their operations to detain and deport illegal aliens from the United States. The sign, which was a flag reading, “I Support ICE,” was torn down by the woman, who then proceeded to toss it in the trash while loudly insulting the individual who displayed it. The woman claimed that the actions ICE have taken to enforce immigration law in the United States made the flag highly insulting...

A left-wing Sacramento city councilwoman who is running for Congress has repeatedly turned her back on the American flag and refused to say the Pledge of Allegiance. It remains to be seen how councilwoman Mai Vang’s obstinance will play with voters as she is seeking to unseat longtime Democratic Rep. Doris Matsui in the June primary election. Vang is reportedly polling neck-and-neck with the incumbent and slightly ahead of Republican Zachariah Wooden, the California Post reported. However, the deviance may not be the best strategy in the recently redrawn 7th congressional district, which now includes more conservative areas like Lodi,...

The National Popular Vote Interstate Compact is advancing quickly among Democrats, but the Constitution itself has the tools for defeating it. Advancing the latest “progressive” scheme to upend our Constitution and make the people serve the government, Governor Abigail Spanberger has signed a bill forcing Virginia to join the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact (NPVIC). This ruse to overturn the Electoral College, a critical safeguard that ensures equal presidential representation for all Americans, is now just 48 votes away from national implementation. The coalition seeks to force the presidential selection to be decided by popular vote alone. This would favor...

When I think about the changes I’ve seen in this great nation over the course of my life, I’m stunned at the many bizarre deviations that have occurred right under my nose. Did I not see it coming? Was I so confident that the U.S. would always be rooted in moral values that I let down my guard? Looking back, I’m reminded of the maxim about the frog placed in a pot of comfortable room-temperature water while the heat gradually turns up until the frog is boiled alive. How many of us are so comfortable that we pay scant attention...
