Free Republic

For years, Democrats have told America they are the ones defending democracy, norms, and institutions. Then the Supreme Court hands President Trump a few major wins, and suddenly they want to change the size of the Court. Rep. Pramila Jayapal went on Newsmax and said Democrats are “absolutely” talking about expanding the Supreme Court. That is the tell. The timing is impossible to miss. The Court just handed President Trump key immigration victories, and the response from the left is already shifting from legal argument to institutional redesign. When you cannot win the ruling, change the scoreboard. Breitbart reported the...

🚨 HOLY SMOKES: Sec. Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Dr. Oz have just announced OVER *ONE MILLION* PEOPLE are on Obamacare with NO Social Security number… 🤯🤯 It’s one big racket! Shut it down! “They submit applications for fake people and enroll stolen identities all to collect millions of dollars in fees from insurance companies for selling plans they never legitimately sold!” “The Obamacare marketplace is plagued by fraud, in large part because the Biden administration dismantled basic program integrity guardrails.” “More than a million people enrolled in Obamacare without social security numbers on file. That is a glaring warning...

During a recent podcast appearance with a host from MSNOW, California Governor Gavin Newsom criticized conservative media outlets. Newsom suggests that the right has an entire system of media that creates narratives and carries talking points for Republicans. He then claims that liberals have nothing like that. This is laugh-out-loud ridiculous. Liberals have the entire media, with the possible exception of FOX News, which Newsom uses repeatedly to make his asinine point. Outlets like CNN, MSNOW, the traditional networks, and all of the major newspapers frame the news in ways that try to give the Democrats an advantage every single...

The left wing has worked hard to find very clever ways to stop President Trump’s agenda without ever winning an election. The formula was sinister and simple. Trump announces a new immigration policy. That cues progressive activist groups to race to court and file a lawsuit. A friendly federal activist judge somewhere in California, Hawaii, or D.C. slaps an injunction on the policy, and just like that, everything grinds to a screeching halt. The left is hoping that months drag on and turn into years, letting the lawsuits pile up, and hopefully the policy dies a slow, lonely death before...

Revolver has spent years exposing lawfare, unjust political prosecutions, like what the Biden regime did to Douglass Mackey, selective justice, and the weaponization of the courts against Americans who find themselves on the “wrong side” of politics. We don’t suddenly stop caring about due process because the defendants are on the left. If prosecutors twist the law, hide evidence, punish free speech, or use the justice system to settle political wars, we’ll happily call it out. But that’s not some free pass to take a violent, armed attack, take out every inconvenient fact, call an ambush a “protest,” and demand...

The Tories warned that Britain was being left 'in the dark ages' through the 'bonkers' Net Zero drive. Britons have been ordered to remove air conditioning from their homes - despite the country baking in up to 40C heat this week - under a fresh Net Zero crackdown. Planning officials at councils have told residents to take down their cooling units over concerns about carbon dioxide emissions. They say AC, despite the heat, should serve only as a "last resort". The crackdown comes from building regulations which demand "active cooling" is used only after all "passive cooling" methods, like opening...

Democratic Scranton Mayor Paige Cognetti said she supported disarming police officers and wanted to emulate Japan’s gun-control laws in a resurfaced video from 2020. Cognetti, who is seeking to unseat Republican Pennsylvania Rep. Rob Bresnahan in the Eighth Congressional District, has a history of supporting anti-Second Amendment groups, notably Everytown. She made the remarks about Japan’s gun-control laws during a June 2020 virtual town hall in which she also said she wanted to disarm police. “I would love to get to a world where a country where we don’t have or police don’t have firearms and where we don’t have...

Elon Musk, owner of the social media platform X, has had it. According to the New York Post, in a recent appearance on the leftist “I’ve Had It” podcast with insufferable host Jennifer Welch, Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna of California insisted that Musk “needs to answer” for the “4.5 million children around the world who he possibly sentenced to death by dismantling USAID” while Musk ran President Donald Trump’s Department of Government Efficiency, known as DOGE, in early 2025. “Time to sue this liar,” Musk wrote Tuesday on X. But Musk, who recently became the world’s first trillionaire, did not...

Texas is home to some serious anti-Sharia initiatives, and the establishment media is fighting back with everything it’s got, misrepresenting Sharia as private religious law that harms no one, and smearing opponents of Sharia as “far-right” mouth-breathers who are bent on opposing Sharia not out of any real principle, but because they hate “brown people,” and are unjustly suspicious of anything that ain’t Christian, ‘specially some furrin’ law that folks that don’t even talk like us is bringin’ here in the dark of night. And so now the Texas Tribune has brought us the sad story of Mohamed Hussein, the...

A California State Assembly bill has been amended to increase the difficulty and burden for Californians seeking government records. Democrat California Assemblywoman Blanca Pacheco amended CA AB 1821, named the California Public Records Act, on June 10 to allow public agencies to delay and increase charges for “commercial use” records requests. The bill, first introduced in February, was amended to require a $22.35-per-hour administrative fee and a $66.26-per-hour professional fee to be used as compensation for record searches determined to be for “commercial use.” Both fees can also increase by “a cost-of-living adjustment.” Supporters have defended it as a necessary...

A federal judge in Minnesota, who has donated to an immigrant legal aid group, quashed several federal grand jury subpoenas of documents from Gov. Tim Walz and the mayors of Minneapolis and St. Paul over compliance with immigration enforcement. In a 29-page opinion issued Monday, Chief U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz of the District of Minnesota accused the Trump administration’s Justice Department of seeking to “harass political opponents” by initiating a criminal investigation and using grand jury subpoenas to pressure state and local officials into changing their immigration policies. The judge has acknowledged being a donor for “many years” to...

Here we go again. For years, I’ve used keyboard macros. I set one up in February so that when I press +K, it magically types out “Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei.” That macro didn’t last long, though, because he’s well… dead. I need one that types out “On [insert date here], a federal judge threw out [or issued a temporary injunction on] Trump's xxyy policy.” In Monday’s edition, U.S. District Judge Patrick Schiltz, a George W. Bush appointee, tossed Justice Department grand jury subpoenas for Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, state Attorney General Keith Ellison, and some of their associates. The...

Colombia, a country rife with cartel violence, drug kingpins, and political assassinations picked their new leader on Sunday. By early evening, Conservative outsider Abelardo de la Espriella was announced the winner over cartel lackey and Marxist sympathizer Gustavo Petro. Espriella is a Trump supporter and holds a dual citizenship with the US. Colombia has an estimated 52,694,952 people according to latest estimates. Even Colombia, with all of its domestic challenges is able to count ballots in ONE DAY! Meanwhile, in California, the communists are still harvesting and counting ballots. California allegedly has a population of 39.6 million but who really...

A simple website flaw exposed members, political profiles, login tokens, and dating data from Peter Thiel ‘s secretive Dialog network. Dialog, a private invitation-only organization cofounded in 2006 by billionaire tech investor Peter Thiel, has spent two decades refusing to disclose its membership. That position became harder to maintain last week when Swiss hacktivist maia arson crimew, known for exposing the US government’s No Fly List, found an open directory embedded in the source code of dialog.org that was visible to anyone who viewed the page. WIRED independently verified the contents and obtained the registration list for Dialog’s 2026 retreat,...

California Democrats just handed their gubernatorial nomination to a man whose pandemic-era résumé includes a role the party would prefer voters never examine: he was the place where the truth about COVID-19’s origins was sent to be quietly buried. That is the picture that emerges from the trove of records Tulsi Gabbard declassified on her way out the door as Director of National Intelligence. Among the documents her office released on June 18 is correspondence describing how a whistleblower complaint, one alleging that the Intelligence Community believed COVID escaped from the Wuhan Institute of Virology and that Dr. Anthony Fauci...

Democrats, for years already, have insisted that President Donald Trump is such a dictator, a “Hitler,” that he won’t ever leave office. Of course, he did, in a routine although slightly snarky transfer to the Biden White House after that 2020 vote. But they still say he won’t. He’ll “cancel” elections. He’ll declare himself president for life. He’ll even use, the extremists claim, the military to keep control. All of the doomsayers, perhaps, should be watching one city in far-left California, where four city officials were removed from office by voters, but have refused to leave. They simply voted to...

Last August, Decarlos Brown Jr.—a mentally ill repeat offender out on bail—allegedly stabbed 23-year-old Iryna Zarutska to death on a Charlotte light rail train. Video of the shocking murder prompted widespread outrage, pushing the North Carolina legislature to pass a law named for Zarutska and meant to overhaul the state’s criminal justice and mental-health system. But will Zarutska’s killer be brought to justice? Brown is currently mentally incompetent to stand trial, according to a federal judge. As a result, he may never face a jury. In fact, under current law, he could walk free if the court concludes he will...

OCSO Intelligence agents have arrested a woman who used her access to a sensitive court database to warn members of a drug trafficking organization that investigators were closing in and had secured arrest warrants. Crystal Lawson, 32, was granted access to the Comprehensive Case Information System (CCIS) database as part of her job as a Juvenile Probation Officer for the Florida Department of Juvenile Justice when she was hired in February 2022. Later that year, she was terminated from that job after she was arrested for battery. But her access to those databases was not cut off. Between January and...

Rolling Stone magazine has published an article promoting a leftist gun influencer who celebrated Charlie Kirk's 2025 assassination, organizes transgender militias, and believes law enforcement officers should be shot to death. The piece centers on "Yeezy," a 33-year-old Appalachian man, and his online 3D-printing firearms operation. The article, titled "This Man Wants to Help You Print Your Own Gun" and written by writer Jack Crosbie, frames Yeeze's ghost gun business as a solution for people facing potential gun restrictions, particularly trans-identifying individuals. Yeezy has positioned himself as a trans rights activist and has a history of advocating for violence against...

Tulsi Gabbard, on her final day as US Director of National Intelligence (DNI), levelled serious accusations against former Chief Medical Advisor to the US President, Dr Anthony Fauci. She claimed that Fauci funded ‘gain-of-function’ research at China's Wuhan Institute of Virology, influenced intelligence assessments on the origins of COVID-19, and misled the Congress when under oath. Notably, the outbreak from Wuhan spread across the world and became the COVID pandemic as we know it today. “Today, on my final day as Director of National Intelligence, I’m releasing never-before-seen communications and documents exposing how Dr. Fauci provided millions in US taxpayer...
