State Rep. Juandalynn Givan (D-Birmingham) called U.S. Supreme Court (SCOTUS) Associate Justice Clarence Thomas an "Uncle Tom" and the "one who sold us out in Africa" after a recent redistricting ruling on Monday. SCOTUS struck down a 2023 federal court-ordered Alabama congressional map on Monday. The ruling paves the way for Republicans in Alabama to likely pick up at least one congressional seat in the 2026 midterms. Republicans currently have a narrow majority in Congress, and redistricting battles are happening in multiple states across the nation. A special master hired by a three-judge panel in Birmingham redrew the map for...

If a man is black, he can be a literal career criminal, high on fentanyl, whose heart and lungs gave out in a struggle with the Minneapolis police, and he'll get monuments erected around the nation. Senators will kneel for him. Celebrities will idolize him. The blackness of his skin will be the center of the story. But if you're a white girl who escaped Ukraine only to get murdered by a black guy who mocked your white skin while slashing your throat? Well, you better not notice any racism there, and if you do, you better not put up...

A Los Angeles mayoral debate has collapsed at the last minute after Nithya Raman joined Karen Bass and Spencer Pratt in pulling out. Raman revealed early Monday she was not going, following Bass pulling out last week and Pratt earlier saying he had a scheduling conflict. It left just businessman Adam Miller and activist Rae Huang. A spokesman for the Pat Brown Institute and the League of Women Voters said: “With only two candidates remaining, the event partners have agreed not to proceed.” Raman’s campaign told The Post: “We’re disappointed that Mayor Bass cancelled her participation in the debate. We...

A new poll revealed that a stunning number of Democrats believe the 2024 assassination attempt on President Donald Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, was staged. Among respondents who identified as Democrats, 42% said they believed that the Butler attempt by would-be assassin Thomas Crooks was fake, according to a YouGov poll. Thirty-four percent believed the recent attempt by suspect Cole Allen at the White House Correspondents Association (WHCA) dinner was also staged. Twenty-six percent said the same of Ryan Routh’s attempt at Trump International Golf Course in West Palm Beach in September 2024. Notably, the poll found that nearly a quarter...

If you needed another reminder that the state of California needs help, this should do the trick. Eileen Wang, the mayor of the city of Arcadia, has just been charged with acting as a foreign agent for China. She was posting information on a supposed news website that was basically regime-approved propaganda from the Chinese Communist Party. How many more sleepers like Wang are out there?

This article is part of “Unaffordable America,” a series examining rising economic inequality in the U.S. and the policies that drive it. PHOENIX — The line outside a suburban office building was already 15 people long when Tiffany Hudson showed up with her 7-year-old son cradling his blanket. It was 7 a.m. At the front of the line was a woman hooked up to an oxygen tank who had arrived 90 minutes before the building opened. Like others there, Husdon had come to the Arizona Department of Economic Security office in Surprise, a Phoenix suburb, to find out why the...

Palestinian Chuck Schumer is hiring Eric Holder, famous for handing guns to Mexican cartels under the Barack Hussein Obama administration, as part of a Democrat-led "Election Integrity Group" that will no doubt try to suppress Republican voters, and interfere in our Elections. Furthermore, Marc Elias, a terrible lawyer with a horrible track record, is also involved. This is the same disgusting individual who was responsible for the fake Russia dossier from a foreign nation to meddle in the 2016 Election, which I won in historic fashion. The Democrats are totally unhinged and we will not allow them to threaten the...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) on Friday warned Democrats against forming alliances with former Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), accusing the former lawmaker of being a “proven bigot.” A student at an event hosted by the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics asked Ocasio-Cortez about working across the aisle with Republican lawmakers, including Rep. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.), and if she stood by comments she made in 2021 about “legitimate white supremacist sympathizers at the core of the House of Representatives caucus.” Ocasio-Cortez said she stood by the comments, and that her work with Republican colleagues has been “about where we trust...

Just when the Democrats seem to be finished, Gavin swoops in with truckloads of diapers. he Democrat party is facing such a host of seemingly intractable problems -- structural, financial, legal, and ideological -- that it will be close to a miracle if it survives after this year’s midterms. The below-deck shuffles -- encouraging illegal alien votes, manipulating the census, making crooked voting almost impossible to check, and stuffing their pockets with illegal contributions through ACT Blue and pay-to-play schemes of USAID and NGOs -- are all suddenly being exposed and blocked. Empty PocketsJeff Childers has done a thorough job...

This silly bartender would make a great professor for Communism 101. AOC will never be anything more than an airheaded bartender with dung for brains. It doesn’t matter if other dung-for-brains morons with the power of the vote were to ever elect her as president; she is, and always will be, a preeminent example of a failed education system and the worst that America has to offer: [X post at source article] Sure, someone with a mind like AOC literally can’t earn a billion dollars, but some people can. Ignoring government cronyism and the fake free market (we have too...

I guess this makes sense if you're a modern liberal. America and democracy didn't really exist ... until our greatest "founding father" MLK marched on Washington. At least that's what AOC thinks. AOC says black people, Native Americans, and immigrants are "what America is all about""Black Americans really created democracy in this country" pic.twitter.com/OR5akV9M4m— Breitbart News (@BreitbartNews) May 7, 2026AOC: There are very few, like, real archetypes of - in my opinion - truly what America is all about. I think about the Civil Rights and Voting Rights movements. And how black Americans really created democracy in this country. Interviewer:...

‘My ambition is to change the country,’ AOC says when asked about seeking higher office in 2028 New York’s Democratic representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez brushed off question about run for presidency.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) dismissed a question of whether or not she’ll run for president in 2028 on Friday night, stating that her “ambition is way bigger.” “My ambition is to change this country,” Ocasio-Cortez told Democratic strategist David Axelrod during a conversation hosted by the University of Chicago’s Institute of Politics. “Presidents come and go, Senate, House seats, elected officials, come and go, but single-payer healthcare is forever. A living wage is forever. Workers’ rights are forever. Women’s rights — all of that.” The representative is among a group of people whom voters see as potential Democratic candidates for...

.......That would be Warren Kinsella, a native Canadian with an impressive résumé and a long list of accomplishments. In this riveting interview, featured on Israpundit.org, he relates how in his experience in running political campaigns — and being the campaign manager for Prime Minister Jean Chrétien (1993–2003) — he instantly recognized that the virtual explosion of worldwide anti-Semitism after October 7, 2023 was significantly similar to...yes, political campaigns, in which those who run them are primarily concerned with (1) Volunteers, (2) Leadership, (3) Messaging, (4) Money, (5) Advertising, and (6) Social Media. The campaign against Israel, Mr. Kinsella said, was...

Nebraskans will vote next week in the U.S Senate primary race to determine which Republican and which Democrat will face off in November for the congressional seat. But a closer look reveals the latest in Democrat election rigging — complete with legal help from Russia Collusion hoaxer Marc Elias. The apparent master plan involves leveraging the primary race to prop up the so-called “nonpartisan” candidate vying for the Senate seat, who, under an “independent” facade, has deep leftist ties that could threaten fair representation in the red state. On May 12, Democrat candidates Cindy Burbank and William Forbes will face...
