Kamala Harris insists she hasn't decided whether she's running for president in 2028, but she accidentally gave the game away. Obviously, nobody in the Democrat Party is exactly begging her to jump in. The establishment has been pushing back hard on the idea of a third Kamala campaign. Former allies and donors grumble that she squandered her first year out of office, and they can't come up with a single reason voters should take another look at her. Even her husband, Doug Emhoff, reportedly isn't thrilled about her running again. You'd think all that would give her pause. Instead, Kamala...

Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) is facing an ethics complaint filed to the United States Senate over comments she made earlier this month that many characterized as a "threat" to conservatives who are thinking about working for the Trump administration. During an Oct. 13 University of Chicago event, Slotkin drew criticism after a clip went viral showing her saying she wants to pursue "signature cases" against people who "enabled" President Donald Trump and push a "deterrence message" for young people. "I want young people coming out of school to say, 'Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like, that sounds...

WASHINGTON — The search warrant on “Squad” Rep. Ilhan Omar hasn’t necessarily been “fully” completed, court documents in a legal fight between the feds and the media indicated. At dawn on Oct. 12, the feds executed a search warrant and raided Omar’s (D-Minn.) DC home as part of a probe into her immigration status in a stunning move less than a month out from the Nov. 3 election. To justify keeping the details of the records for the warrant under wraps from numerous media outlets, US Attorney for DC Jeanine Pirro cited concerns that it wasn’t fully completed. “[G]ood cause...

Omar says threats against her and concerns about her children have made remaining at the residence "no longer" feasible. Rep. Ilhan Omar says she plans to move out of her Washington, D.C., home after federal agents searched the residence, citing death threats and concerns about her children's safety. In her first interview since the Oct. 12 search, the Minnesota Democrat recounted the early-morning operation during an appearance on MS NOW with host Chris Hayes. As NBC News reported, Omar said the search and safety concerns have prompted her to leave the home. "Because our address has been public and with...

Jennifer Welch, a left-wing podcaster who has interviewed the biggest names in the Democrat Party, is demanding that there be “pistols firing” at “antichrist” JD Vance to ensure he does not become president in two years.

Federal prosecutors allege the 82-year-old Senate President Pro Tempore used her political power and committee influence to shield a family-run marijuana ring operating across Virginia. Virginia state Senator Lillie Louise Lucas was indicted Thursday on five charges that include drug trafficking, money laundering, fraud and firearms charges after being accused of running a marijuana distribution enterprise, according to the U.S. Department of Justice. Lucas is among seven indicted in the sprawling racketeering scheme, a group that includes her two daughters, Lisa Lucas-Burke and Theresa Lucas-Lamb, and her grandson Ryan Eichelberger, Attorney General Todd Blanche said in a Thursday press conference....

The recording, obtained by The Cougar Chronicle, features Venna Anne and Ashton Hirschi, both identified as POPAI leaders, speaking during a meeting earlier this month. During a conversation about capitalism, someone told Anne that “You just can’t get away from capitalism.” Anne replied, “No, unless we kill everybody.” Hirschi responded that they only needed to kill “some” people and initially settled on “500.” Anne then said, “You also have to kill their children and their [line of succession].” Hirschi agreed, stating, “We need to get the politicians.” When asked whether ICE agents could integrate back into society, Hirschi said, “If...

Garbed in purple and holding signs that read “Fair contracts now!” and “Here to serve, not to starve,” thousands of state workers rallied at government buildings across California Wednesday to protest what they describe as unfair labor practices by Gov. Gavin Newsom’s administration. SEIU Local 1000’s first strike in its 44-year history unfolded in several cities including Sacramento, San Francisco and Los Angeles. The union — which represents about 100,000 workers, nearly half the state workforce — has been in contentious labor talks with the Newsom administration since its latest contract expired in late June. Its members want a better...

Hizzoner, meanwhile, regularly appears in numerous cleverly crafted TikTok videos per day — prompting insiders to lament about where his priorities lie. “The mayor and his team are obsessed with becoming a content farm, often delaying or can-kicking boring governmental meetings so the mayor and his staff can hold pitch sessions for social media videos,” one source who often works with City Hall told The Post. He had “one” job. Mayor Zohran Mamdani has signed just one bill into law in 10 months since taking office — leaving critics to wonder if the millennial mayor is more interested in social...

Two members of the Bush family, the Republican political dynasty that counts Texas as its political launchpad, have backed Democrat James Talarico in the hotly fought race for a Senate seat in the Lone Star State.

Former President George W. Bush’s brother, Neil Bush, has revealed he voted for Democratic candidate James Talarico for U.S. Senate in Texas, calling President Donald Trump's bid to overturn the 2020 election "an affront to our democratic institutions.""I voted early today, and I voted for James Talarico for the United States Senate," the Texan businessman wrote in a post on Facebook on Tuesday in a snub to Republican candidate Ken Paxton.

Democrats know that when it comes to people of faith, the Republicans clean up. This explains why in this election cycle they are trying hard to appeal to religious folks: several “pastors” are running for office. The quotes are necessitated because there are good reasons to question just how representative they are of their Protestant base. Meet the “pastors” running for office. James Talarico He is running to represent Texas in the United States Senate. He is a Presbyterian seminarian and currently serves in the Texas House of Representatives. Abortion When he gave his first sermon, he chose to discuss...

Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico attended an event in Irving, Texas, that was dedicated to speaking with the Muslim community. Talarico held a meet-and-greet with the Muslim Democrat Caucus of Irving, where he met with Richardson Mayor Amir Omar, Councilman Fahad Ahmed of Irving, state Rep. Salman Bhojani, and Nima Bhojani. The event, held at a halal barbecue restaurant, Kafi Barbeque, aligns with Talarico’s record of supporting Islamic ideology and acting on behalf of that community. Amy Mek, founder and editor-in-chief of RAIR Foundation USA, highlighted some of Talarico’s past Islamic advocacy in an X post. She noted that...

A motorist was killed in a drive-by shooting on the George Washington Bridge in Manhattan Tuesday night, according to cops and sources. The driver was found shot in the head on the westbound upper level of the crossing around 7 p.m. after officers responded to reports of a crash, the Port Authority Police Department and sources said. He was rushed to Englewood Hospital in New Jersey and pronounced dead, according to law enforcement sources. The suspect fled and remained on the loose late Tuesday. Investigators are pouring over security camera footage for clues into the slaying. Nobody else was injured...

Does anyone in the Democrat Party own a mirror? Because Bill Clinton lecturing Americans about civility in this country is absolutely hilarious, given that he might want to spread the word to his fellow party members. Starting with his wife. Hillary Clinton. She who dubbed anyone who would dare to vote for Donald Trump "a basket of deplorables." Former President Bill Clinton was campaigning for Democrats in Florida on Tuesday night when he issued a warning against politicians who try to win elections by demonizing their opponents. Clinton criticized what he characterized as negative campaign tactics by Republican gubernatorial candidate...

🚨 BREAKING: Democrats are plotting to go after Elon Musk, and Laura Ingraham just exposed exactly why. Elon gave $276 million to help Republicans in the third quarter alone. Now Democrats want to dig into Starlink's contracts and Tesla's clean energy subsidies. These are the same people who took hundreds of millions from George and Alex Soros and Reid Hoffman. Ingraham nailed it: "This is designed not just to punish Elon but also... to deter any future billionaire from helping Republicans." Elon built SpaceX, Starlink and Tesla, saved free speech, and put his own money on the line for this...

Two weeks out from the November 3 election, the Democratic Socialists of America are turning on one of their own. Los Angeles City Councilwoman Nithya Raman, the DSA-backed challenger to Mayor Karen Bass, now faces a push from hardline Marxist caucuses that could strip her endorsement or even expel her from the organization. The New York Post reported that Reform & Revolution and Bread & Roses have joined forces to demand Raman answer for her positions on Israel and Palestine. They introduced a resolution to the National Political Committee calling for a members-only meeting by October 25, preferably with Raman...

A California man convicted of drugging and raping three women and originally sentenced to 124 years in prison has been released after serving approximately 20 years, sparking outrage from local officials who have raised public safety concerns. Andrew Luster, the great-grandson of cosmetics mogul Max Factor, was released from state prison earlier this month and is reportedly residing in Glendora, California, according to KTLA. Glendora Mayor David Fredendall condemned the release in a statement obtained by Fox News Digital, calling it unacceptable that a convicted serial rapist is now reportedly living in the community. "The City of Glendora is beyond...

Former Biden White House aide and Democratic strategist Yemisi Egbewole predicted that the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) would be sidelined ahead of the 2028 presidential election during a Wednesday episode of "The Fifth Column" podcast, hosted by Kmele Foster and Michael Moynihan, despite the socialist movement's recent primary victories. When asked by Foster whether the Democratic Party was moving toward the DSA's ideology, Egbewole, a senior fellow at the centrist Democratic think tank Third Way, predicted the movement would struggle to translate its recent successes into national influence. "Going into 2028, the DSA... Baby gets put in a corner,"...
