Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), a potential Democrat presidential primary candidate, is again calling for the abolishment of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), which enforces the nation’s immigration laws. Ocasio-Cortez won her congressional race in 2018 partly on a platform that promised to dismantle and ultimately abolish ICE, even suggesting that illegal aliens deserve a “right of passage” into the United States. Ocasio-Cortez eventually dropped the “Abolish ICE” talking point from her stump speech after polls found that even a majority of Democrats did not want the federal agency to be wiped out. In a new campaign email, just as...

Kamala Harris was left aghast when President Joe Biden donned a “Trump 2024” cap at a Pennsylvania firehouse in a bizarre scene at the height of last year’s presidential race, a bombshell new book has revealed. During a visit to a Shanksville firehouse while commemorating the 23rd anniversary of the 9/11 attacks, Biden, now 82, posed with more than a dozen youngsters clad in pro-Trump attire — then briefly put on the cap after being egged on by a member of the crowd. “What is he doing?” Harris — by that point the Democratic nominee after Biden ended his re-election...

EXCLUSIVE: Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., did not rule out 2028 presidential aspirations when asked by Fox News Digital about the viral video that had pundits guessing if she was soft-launching her campaign. "I think what people should be most concerned about is the fact that Republicans are trying to cut Medicaid right now, and people's healthcare is in danger. That's really what my central focus is," the New York Democrat said when asked if she was considering a run for president, despite President Donald Trump's assurances that he wouldn't cut Medicaid. "This moment isn't about campaigns, or elections, or about...

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison raked in $10,000 in campaign donations shortly after meeting with individuals linked to a nonprofit that stole $250 million from a federal program meant to feed hungry children during the pandemic. “I’m not here because I think it’s going to help my re-election,” Ellison said during the Dec. 11, 2021, meeting with two future criminal defendants linked to the Feeding our Future scandal, according to audio obtained by the Center for the American Experiment, a conservative Minnesota-based nonprofit. Days later, on Dec. 20, 2021, Ellison received $10,000 in campaign contributions from individuals linked to Minneapolis...

Kamala Harris is trying to figure out her next chapter — and it might start with a think tank. The former vice president, who lost to President Trump last fall, is weighing whether to launch an “institute for policy and ideas,” with longtime adviser Brian Nelson quietly reaching out to universities — including Stanford and Howard — about hosting the venture, according to multiple reports. Harris, 60, “jokes to friends that she is unemployed for the first time,” the New York Times reported. But time is ticking. Aside from public service pensions, former vice presidents don’t receive the same post-office...

The Federal Elections Commission (FEC) has opened an investigation into Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) over donations to her campaign that were made through ActBlue, a Democrat fundraising platform that has recently come under scrutiny for suspicious donation activity. A complaint to the FEC was filed by conservative advocacy group the Coolidge-Reagan Foundation in March against Crockett with respect to her fundraising activity on ActBlue as well as alleged voter intimidation, according to the Daily Signal. On April 2, the group was notified by the FEC that the agency would be looking into the matter with respect to Crockett. “The respondents...

Canada is launching a billboard offensive in its trade war with Uncle Sam, targeting highways in 12 red states with messages like “tariffs are a tax on your grocery bill.” “We are launching ads in the US to make sure all Americans know that tariffs are taxes on everything they buy,” Canadian Minister of Foreign Affairs Melanie Joly said on X. The Great White North is calling it an “education campaign.” “The purpose is to increase the understanding of the American public and to counter misinformation,” said John Babcock, spokesperson for Global Affairs Canada, who put up the billboards in...

Leftist Trump haters intent on attacking the president and Elon Musk’s Tesla have launched the “DOGEQUEST” website targeting the owners of Tesla EVs. The website includes the personal details of Tesla owners across the country and features a molotov cocktail cursor icon. The clear implication is that Tesla owners will be the next target of domestic terrorism rapidly escalating across the country. 404 Media reports that a website titled “DOGEQUEST” has published on a searchable map the alleged names, addresses, phone numbers, and email addresses of Tesla owners throughout the United States. The site claims it will remove an individual’s...

Joe Rogan said former Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign “lied” about him not making time for her to appear on The Joe Rogan Experience, saying her staffers never committed to his show, and even lied about sending someone to his studio for a walk-through. Rogan added that he believes the false statements were made simply because someone on Harris’s staff is “trying to cover their ass for the fact that she never did it.” On a recent episode of The Joe Rogan Experience, the podcast host cited a book that recently came out “about the Kamala Harris campaign, where they...

Meghan McCain vowed to make it her “personal mission to help campaign and fundraise” against any Senator who does not vote to confirm Tulsi Gabbard to serve as the Director of National Intelligence (DNI). “Any Senator who votes against @TulsiGabbard for DNI isn’t just going to have a problem with MAGA and Trump,” McCain warned. “I will make it my personal mission to help campaign and fundraise against you in your next election. And my people are probably a lot like their people.”

More than two months after Vice President Kamala Harris lost to President-elect Donald Trump, the joint fundraising committee she set up with the Democratic National Committee is still charging recurring donors, according to a Politico report. Some of them are miffed. “It’s silly, out of touch, and needlessly takes advantage of our most loyal supporters,” one Democrat told Politico, sharing screenshots of charges to their accounts continuing into January. They said the Harris Victory Fund did not seek their explicit approval to keep withdrawing cash, instead saying in an email that they would continue “until you contact us.”

Gov. Gavin Newsom on Saturday launched a page on his campaign website he says is to combat "misinformation and disinformation" being spread online and by political leaders regarding the ongoing wildfires in Southern California. He says the site will "continue to update and provide valuable, fact-based information to the public around policies, budget allocations, personnel on the ground and more.." The webpage is notably located on Newsom's campaign website funded by Newsom for California, and not on an official government site. “There is an astonishing amount of mis- and dis-information being spread online -- much of it by so-called leaders...

As desperate, phony, and even dangerous of a campaign Democrats ran this year, and as embarrassing as the outcome was for all of them, nobody came out looking more pathetic than Barack Obama. From 2024’s vantage point, is there any way to look at his legacy but as a tragic blight on American history? In the final months of the campaign, Obama seemed to know the outcome of the election would say just as much about him as it would about Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, or Donald Trump. And, like all realistic Democrats, he knew that the nominee he supported...

Joe Biden regrets having pulled out of this year’s presidential race and believes he would have defeated Donald Trump in last month’s election – despite negative poll indications, White House sources have said. The US president has reportedly also said he made a mistake in choosing Merrick Garland as attorney general – reflecting that Garland, a former US appeals court judge, was slow to prosecute Donald Trump for his role in the 6 January 2021 insurrection while presiding over a justice department that aggressively prosecuted Biden’s son Hunter. With just more than three weeks of his single-term presidency remaining, Biden’s...

This week the Democrat funding organization ActBlue admitted it broke the federal campaign financing law's prohibition of using foreign funds to help elect Democrats. President and CEO Regina Wallace-Jones said "we recognize that technically foreigners are not supposed to donate money in US elections. However, we don't acknowledge the legitimacy of this law. Since the US is the most powerful country in the world persons living in other countries have a stake in the outcome of our elections. Why shouldn't they be able to help elect people that would represent their interests? Anyway, we stopped accepting foreign money after September...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett, D-Texas, accused many Hispanic voters of having a “slave mentality” for supporting President-elect Donald Trump. “That is my distilled summary of what happens within the Latino community,” Crockett told Vanity Fair on Friday. “I’ve not run into that with the Asian community. I’ve not run into that with the African community. I’ve not run into that with the Caribbean community. I’ve only run into it with Hispanics. When they think of ‘illegals,’ they think of, you know, maybe people that came out of the cartels and that kind of, like, the criminal-type book or whatever. It’s insane.”...

Finally, Republicans and conservatives have gotten smart about social media. For years conservative groups whined about social media companies like Facebook discriminating against conservative voices – and they did and in some cases still do. But the Trump campaign got smart and employed social media highly effectively – and much more so than the Democrats. That decision proved crucial to his victory. He passed on a second debate with Kamala Harris. He passed on high-profile interviews with 60 Minutes, NBC, and CNN. Instead, Trump appeared on countless new media platforms, sitting down with Joe Rogan and other podcasters. Some 30...
