Some people are unbelievably stupid, while the stupidity of others is completely believable. Democrats fall firmly into the latter category. Some of the most insane conspiracy theories, even after a thorough debunking, thrive like COVID in a caravan of “migrants” among Democrats. And each week, sometimes each day, medial liberals cook up more crazy ideas and thoughts to infect the vacuous areas in heads of Democrats normally occupied by brains. To call that area “fertile ground” is to imply there is ground in there, when their heads are really filled with nothing but the purest form of natural fertilizer. The...

The sweeping change would grant permanent status and legal residency to an estimated 8 million people at a cost estimated at $140 billion.The Senate’s parliamentarian appeared to dash Democrats’ mass amnesty dreams Sunday, issuing an opinion that the rules for a budget reconciliation bill — a privileged legislative vehicle that can be passed with a simple majority — don’t encompass providing permanent legal status to millions of illegal migrants.Democratic leadership claimed they “are deeply disappointed,” but they know decision doesn’t matter, at least not as much as they’d like to pretend.Why not? At the moment, they don’t have the votes...

I blame the mayor’: residents fume at de Blasio, AOC over flood Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez gave Mayor Bill de Blasio a pass for failing to warn New Yorkers about the fatal storm that lashed the city last week — preferring to pin the blame on climate change — but her Queens constituents slammed Hizzoner and other city officials for their lack of preparedness. “I don’t blame climate change, I blame the mayor,” Danette Rivera, 47, told The Post outside her Woodside home Monday morning after de Blasio, AOC, Sen. Charles Schumer and FEMA Administrator Deanne Criswell toured her block.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) blamed climate change after Hurricane Ida’s remnants caused historic flooding in New York City, leaving multiple people dead. “Woe is us if we don’t recognize these changes are due to climate change. Woe is us if we don’t do something about it quickly,” Schumer said in a press conference.

California Gubernatorial Candidate Larry Elder (R) said that he would replace US Senator Dianne Feinstein(D-CA) with a Republican if she couldn’t continue serving. Fox News reported: Larry Elder, a gubernatorial candidate in California’s Gavin Newsom recall election, said he would replace U.S. Sen. Dianne Feinstein, a Democrat, with a Republican – if Elder becomes governor and Feinstein were to step down during his term. “God forbid Gov. Elder should replace Dianne Feinstein who nobody’s seen in weeks,” Elder told Mark Levin on his radio show Friday. “I’m told she has a worse mental condition than even Joe Biden. They’re afraid...

The FBI issued an arrest warrant for Infowars host Owen Shroyer for being on the Capitol Steps along with around 1,000 other Americans on January 6th. This is pure communism. Owen made the announcement this afternoon during a live broadcast of his show The War Room. "A couple of hours ago, I was informed by my attorney that there is a warrant out for my arrest with allegations involving Jan 6. And I will have to turn myself in Monday morning. There is a lot of questions some I have answer to some I don’t. I am not going to...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez is not ruling out challenging Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer — a 22-year Senate vet and stalwart member of the “moderate” wing of the Democratic Party — in a primary next year. When the progressive “democratic socialist,” who represents The Bronx and Queens, was asked by CNN’s Dana Bash if she is considering a campaign against her fellow New Yorker, AOC said she had not seriously considered it but also left the door open for a challenge. “I know it drives everybody nuts. But the way that I really feel about this, and the way that I...

Earlier this month Trump supporter and activist Philip Anderson confirmed to The Gateway Pundit that Capitol Police killed Trump supporter Rosanne Boyland on January 6.

The Senate Energy and Natural Resources Committee split along party lines during a Thursday morning vote on President Joe Biden’s nominee to lead the Bureau of Land Management. Democrats on the committee unanimously backed the nominee, Tracy Stone-Manning, in the face of fierce Republican opposition over her involvement in a 1989 ecoterrorism incident and her alleged dishonesty to the committee about the incident. “Tracy Stone-Manning collaborated with ecoterrorists. She lied to this committee, and she continues to harbor extremist views most Americans find reprehensible,” Sen. John Barrasso, R-Wyo., ranking member of the committee, said before the vote. “She is thoroughly...

Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday vowed to kill a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill and accused Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer of 'playing games' by scheduling the vote. ‘Today that Democratic leader appears to be and count on calling a vote he knows will fail,' McConnell said in remarks on the Senate floor. 'It will fail. Around here we typically write the bills before we vote on them. That is the custom.’ Republicans have complained they will not vote for a bill before it is written. The bipartisan group negotiating the measure - which funds traditional infrastructure projects...

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Joe Biden said Monday that his infrastructure and families agenda must be passed to sustain the economic momentum of his first six months in office, aiming to set the tone for a crucial week of congressional negotiations on the two bills. But a Wednesday deadline set by Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on the bipartisan infrastructure bill was in doubt as Republicans signaled they would likely oppose a procedural vote, for now, while details are still being worked out. Senators are wrangling over how to pay for the new spending in the $1 trillion package of...

Texas Democrats demanded Tuesday for the Texas House journal clerk to lock the state house voting machines, thereby denying the GOP majority a quorum needed to proceed with election integrity legislation. Chair of the Texas House Democrat Caucus and State Rep. Chris Turner (D) stated, “Minutes ago, at least 57 letters were delivered to the house journal clerk directing the [Texas] House to lock our voting machines and not unlock them until we provide express permission to do so upon our return to the [Texas] capitol.” “It takes two-thirds of the body present to constitute a quorum, so 100 members,”...

My lawyer has given me names of books and movies to help me see what life is like for others in our country. I’ve learned that even though we live in a wonderful country things still need to improve.

Graydon Young, a 54-year-old from Florida who was charged in a 16-person conspiracy case related to the Capitol riot, will plead guilty Wednesday. Young, a member of the Oath Keepers, was hit with 6 counts, including conspiracy and aiding and abetting the obstruction of the congressional proceeding, CNN reported. He was also previously charged with document tampering after he deleted his Facebook account two days after January 6 – months before the feds interviewed him! Federal prosecutors claim Young participated in the “stack” military formation of Oath Keepers that “cut through the crowd to move inside the Capitol.”

The Biden White House froze $100 million in military aid to Ukraine as Joe Biden prepared to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin in Geneva According to Politico, the Biden Admin ‘temporarily’ halted a military aid package to Ukraine that would include lethal weapons such as short-range air defense systems, small arms and anti-tank weapons as Russia amassed troops on the border.

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) plans to formally trigger the budget reconciliation process on Wednesday, setting Democrats up to ram the White House's American Jobs and Family Plans through the Senate via a simple majority vote in July. Why it matters: Announcing this strategy now could be dangerous to the group of 20 bipartisan lawmakers trying to hash out a deal on the "hard" infrastructure portion of President Biden's package. Some of the Republicans in the group may be less keen on continuing negotiations knowing they plan to force the more progressive parts of Biden's plan through a partisan...
