Bill Ayers Represents Not the Past, But the Democratic Party's Future, There had to be some corks-a-popping at the Chicago home of Bill Ayers and wifey Bernardine Dohrn on Tuesday night. Not since Klaus Fuchs leaked the secrets of the Manhattan Project to his Soviet handlers 80 years prior had Commies in America so much to celebrate. Salon summed up the news concisely, “Socialist sweep reveals New York City’s rising power centers.” Ayers and Dohrn did more than their share to make communism respectable. In September 1995 they opened the doors of their home to state senate candidate Barack Obama....

Donald Trump has previewed a Republican strategy for the midterm elections, seizing on a progressive sweep in New York to portray Democrats as “godless communists” who pose an existential threat to the nation. The US president, who was a child during the “red scare”, seized on wins by democratic socialists backed by the mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, to stoke fears that the Democratic party has embraced extremism that could lead to the violent persecution of Christians. On Friday, Trump was addressing religious conservatives at the Faith & Freedom Coalition’s annual Road to Majority conference at the Washington...

WASHINGTON — Democratic congressional leaders downplayed wins for New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s handpicked challengers in primary races Tuesday, as moderates clamored for results to be a wake-up call for the party establishment. Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) claimed the elections showed “a great united party,” and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) touted his “great working relationship” with Mamdani, while stressing there was still some “work to do” in easing tensions with congressional Democrats. “We’re seeing tremendous energy from all different areas of our party. You’re seeing centrist energy in Virginia, Iowa, and NJ. Progressive energy in...

President Trump declared Thursday that “the Communists are finally making their move,” days after three socialist candidates won Democratic House primary elections in New York. “I’ve been waiting and preparing for this for a long time,” the president’s Truth Social post said. “It’s easy to be a Communist — All you have to do is say, ‘I’ll give you everything,’ but that means you’re taking it away from others that have earned it.” “Over thousands of years, that Ideology has not worked once,” Trump added. “The game is on. Enjoy watching! President DONALD J. TRUMP”

Who could have imagined that after centuries of despots, dictators, conquering armies, and ideological movements that swallowed entire nations, the new socialists would finally reveal who our real and final enemies are — “the billionaires.” When Mayor Mamdani declared that New York’s latest wave of left‑wing politics would “never forget the working citizen,” he left out the part he hopes no one notices: in celebrating this new vision, they’ve managed to forget the law‑abiding citizen entirely. Both working people and the unemployed can be law‑abiding — but that doesn’t seem to matter anymore. Today, you may rob, steal, rape, murder,...

President Trump predicted that New York will “only get worse” after two socialist candidates backed by Mayor Zohran Mamdani won Democratic congressional primaries in the Big Apple Tuesday night. “Many Communists running in badly failing Blue States,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “The votes seem to have them doing quite well against each other. The bad news is that history has conclusively shown that the downtrodden States that they will soon be running will ONLY GET WORSE.” In a separate post early Wednesday, Trump vowed: “America the Beautiful will NEVER be a Communist Country!!!” Trump spoke out after state Assemblywoman...

Canada: Under barrage of criticism, Toronto church cancels event honoring jihad terrorist JUL 8, 2019 2:00 PM BY CHRISTINE DOUGLASS-WILLIAMS The Jerusalem Post ran the article: B’nai Brith Canada Slams Church For Assisting Event Honoring PFLP Terrorist. The article quoted one critic of the event saying that “churches should be places of peace, not places where violence and/or terror are glorified.” Jihad Watch picked up the story: “Church provides space for event honoring “Palestinian” terrorist responsible for jihad massacre.” Robert Spencer noted: The Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine is ostensibly a Communist organization, but it is wholly aligned...

Three more accused associates of a North Texas Antifa terror cell have been indicted on state felony charges for allegedly helping the convicted ringleader evade capture after the July 2025 shooting attack outside an immigration detention center in Alvarado, Texas. A Johnson County grand jury indicted Melanie Lynn Estes, Andrew Tyler Smith and Steven Thomas Reyna in March but the indictment was only recently unsealed. They’re charged with one count each of engaging in organized criminal activity and hindering the prosecution of terrorism. The indictments accuse the three of participating in a criminal conspiracy that helped Antifa member Benjamin Song...

April 20 — At least three senior United Nations officials are suspected of taking multi-million dollar bribes from the Saddam Hussein regime, U.S. and European intelligence sources tell ABCNEWS. One year after his fall, U.S. officials say they have evidence, some in cash, that Saddam diverted to his personal bank accounts approximately $5 billion from the United Nations Oil-for-Food program. In what has been described as the largest humanitarian aid effort ever undertaken, the U.N. Oil-for-Food program began in 1996 to help Iraqis who were suffering under sanctions imposed following the first Gulf War. The program allowed Iraq to sell...

This week, the House Committee on Homeland Security held a hearing detailing how non-governmental organizations (NGOs) helped facilitate and benefited from the historic Biden-Harris border crisis, as well as how far-left NGOs are still working to help inadmissible aliens undermine federal immigration law under the Trump administration. In the hearing, witnesses laid out in detail how NGOs received more than $6 billion from the Biden-Harris administration, including through grants from the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), and others. They also testified about how the Biden-Harris administration handed over unaccompanied alien children (UACs)...

@GeneralMCNews BREAKING: Thomas Massie and Marjorie Taylor Greene have been vacationing together in Costa Rica.

Thomas Massie may be leaving Congress, but don't expect him to disappear from Republican politics anytime soon ... because he and Marjorie Taylor Greene have been cooking up plans behind the scenes to retake the GOP. Charlie caught up with the outgoing Kentucky Congressman Wednesday on Capitol Hill and asked about his recent Costa Rica vacay with Greene and her fiancé, Brian Glenn -- a trip TMZ first revealed after the group was spotted dining together. Massie praised Greene as someone who has "her finger on the pulse" of MAGA voters ... calling her an important voice for people who...

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...

Secretary of State Marco Rubio called out “incompetent communists” who are in charge of the Cuban government, as the United States is eyeing possible intervention regarding the island nation just off the coast of Florida. The country is facing nearly all-day electricity blackouts, as CIA Director John Ratcliffe traveled to Cuba earlier this month to meet with officials. There are also concerns about Cuba possibly wanting to act against the U.S. with military drones, according to Axios. “Cuba’s in a lot of trouble because, unfortunately for them, it’s run by a bunch of incompetent communists,” Rubio said. “Being a communist...

Federal officials have served subpoenas to Marxist political influencer Hasan Piker and CodePink cofounder Susan Medea Benjamin as part of a wider investigation into whether U.S. organizations and leaders violated U.S. laws and sanctions in supporting Cuba’s communist regime, Fox News Digital has learned. Piker and Benjamin are among those caught in a federal inquiry into whether activists who traveled to Cuba in March violated U.S. sanctions laws through the financing, coordination or delivery of goods to Cuba, including potential contacts with Cuban government personnel or entities on the island. The administrative subpoenas were sent to the pair by the...

Former Cuban President Raúl Castro has been indicted in connection to his alleged role in the 1996 downing of two planes operated by the Miami-based exile group Brothers to the Rescue. The indictment was unsealed on Wednesday. Acting U.S. Attorney General Todd Blanche, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier and other officials are expected to make the announcement in Miami.

Mounted police charged in to break up an outdoor press conference and demonstration against the Iraq war in Washington on Thursday, arresting three people, organizers and an AFP reporter said. "The police suppressed the press conference. In the middle of the speeches, they grabbed the podium" erected in a park in front of the White House for the small gathering, Brian Becker, national organizer of the ANSWER anti-war coalition, told AFP. "Then, mounted police charged the media present to disperse them," Becker said.The charge caused a peaceful crowd of some 20 journalists and four or five protestors to scatter in...

Meet the new boss. After months of resisting endorsing a successor, Rep. Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., the former House speaker, officially threw her support behind a fellow progressive, San Francisco Board of Supervisors member Connie Chan, on Monday. She is one of the party’s most successful fundraisers, and Chan is expected to benefit from her fundraising network. Connie Chan is an immigrant from Hong Kong, her politics are well to the left and anti-American, and there have been some questions asked about her ties to Communist China’s propaganda infrastructure. Chan’s 2022 decision, as District 1 Supervisor, to designate Sing Tao...

Five high-ranking military leaders died in the span of just 10 days, according to the Cuban government — though it’s remained mum on the causes. Brigadier General Armando Choy Rodriguez, 87, was the latest aging revolutionary to die, with Marta Abreu Central University announcing on Twitter that he passed away Monday. Rodriguez was the founder of the “July 26 Movement” in Las Villas, and an author and historian, WPLG-TV in Miami said. Also on Monday, Manuel Eduardo Lastres Pacheco, a former general who served under Argentine Ernesto “Che” Guevara during the revolution in the late 1950s, passed away, Cuban television...
