Democrat Rep. Delia Ramirez, who recently said she was more loyal to Guatemala than America, claims that "half" of her family residing in the United States is still "undocumented":

There is no bottom to the depravity of the political left; there just isn’t. Whatever issue you think I’m referring to there, you’re right. There isn’t much of anything, with the possible exception of a sandwich order, that those people can do that wouldn’t disgust me at this point (honestly, whatever kind of sandwich they eat is probably disgusting, too). There is something fundamentally wrong with them – like they were dropped on their heads as babies or their parents traded them for meth or something. Whatever it is, the word “gross” comes to mind. Why this, and why now?...

Crime doesn’t pay — so try politics instead. The Democrat running to be Nassau County’s top prosecutor encouraged convicted criminals to apply for a job on her campaign that could pay them up to $7,000 a month. District Attorney candidate Nicole Aloise’s campaign posted an ad seeking a “communications director” on job website indeed.com as she tries to unseat Republican incumbent District Attorney Anne Donnelly. “People with a criminal record are encouraged to apply,” the job posting says, offering a salary range of between $6,000-$7,000 a month. The call for ex-cons to apply for a job sticks out like a...

Democrat lawmakers decried it as the “Big, Ugly Bill,” but some members of the minority party are beginning to praise — and even take credit — for various provisions within President Donald Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act. Communities across the country stand to gain billions of dollars in federal funding from the president’s sweeping tax relief and immigration law that Trump signed on July 4. Several congressional Democrats are beginning to claim responsibility for provisions they deem beneficial to their constituents despite fiercely opposing the bill during its passage. ... Though House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries has argued that...

APennsylvania Democrat made a chilling confession during a Wednesday city council meeting that may invite a criminal investigation. The Erie City Council held its bi-monthly meeting earlier this week, during which council members addressed the recent death of Marchello Woodard, a man who was fatally shot. 'You know, Nick, I could blow your head off.' During the meeting, council President Mel Witherspoon (D) explained why he had not attended the man's funeral or the rally held in his honor, claiming that the events "brought some things back to...

The convictions will have major ramifications for the Minnesota Senate and the state's political landscape. Sen. Nicole Mitchell, DFL-Woodbury, was found guilty of first-degree burglary in a stunning conclusion to a legal saga that began more than a year ago. In April 2024, Mitchell was arrested and charged with first-degree burglary after allegedly breaking into her stepmother’s Detroit Lakes home with the intent to take items that once belonged to her late father. A second felony charge, possession of burglary or theft tools, was later added by prosecutors. Mitchell’s trial began on Monday and featured body-camera footage, several witnesses, and...

LifeSiteNews) — A pro-abortion pastor and elected Democrat has called the fight to protect abortion the “sacred choice of every soul,” as part of a new Planned Parenthood initiative. Planned Parenthood Advocates of Virginia (PPAV) has enlisted five Democrats in the Virginia legislature for its “Bros for Repro” campaign to “amplify the voices of men who champion [so-called] reproductive rights and bodily autonomy” through grassroots lobbying and public speaking. The campaign is meant to help elect more Democrats to advance a proposed amendment to the Virginia Constitution establishing a state-level “right” to abortion. Among the participants is state Del. Joshua...

A Democratic prosecutor in Colorado “will be recalled’’ for moving to dismiss charges against a transgender sex offender accused of trying to kidnap a boy from a schoolyard, a local pol told The Post on Monday. The district attorney’s office in Colorado’s 18th Judicial District told Fox31 that it is planning to drop the raps against Solomon Galligan, 33, after he allegedly attempted to snatch the 11-year-old during recess at Black Forest Hills Elementary School in Aurora in April 2024. Galligan underwent a competency evaluation after his arrest and was found “mentally incompetent,” the DA’s office said. Prosecutors said they’re...

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) has revealed that Rep. Salud Carbajal (D-CA) was “part of a violent mob of protestors attempting to obstruct federal law enforcement as they executed a criminal search warrant at a marijuana facility” and that he doxxed an ICE agent by handing the individual’s business card to members of the violent group. According to ICE, the doxxed agent was also “left bloody” after the mob hurled rocks at agents who were doing their job. The officers were conducting criminal warrant operations at marijuana farms operated by the Glass House Brands Inc. in Carpinteria and Camarillo when...

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass signed a new executive directive Friday aimed at strengthening city protections for immigrant communities in the wake of what she described as “unlawful and chaotic” federal immigration raids across the region. During a news conference, Bass called the directive necessary to help Los Angeles “understand how to protect itself from our federal government,” referencing a series of immigration enforcement actions that have occurred in the city over the past six weeks, including recent incidents in MacArthur Park and Ventura County. “We saw MacArthur Park earlier this week, which I think, now after all assessments, is...

The mother of New York City’s Democrat Mayoral nominee, Zohran Mamdani, is on record saying that he doesn’t even consider himself American — as the young socialist gets ready to potentially take over America’s largest city.. Hindustan Times back in 2013 quoted Mamdani’s mother Mira, a filmmaker, as saying: “He is a total desi. Completely. We are not firangs at all. He is very much us. He is not an Uhmericcan (American) at all.” (Desi is a term roughly meaning, “one from the country,” while “firangs” roughly translates to “outsiders.”) ... He was born in Uganda, raised between India and...

The Democrat (they're not democratic) party has sometimes been called “a criminal enterprise”. Baltimore native Isaiah L. Carter was once a conservative, but became a leftist over time. Last February he accused the Democrat party of “deception, corruption and political manipulation.” He wrote, This f***ing political party, the Democratic Party, have lied to us about everything. They’ve lied about being the party of the middle class. They’ve lied about being the party of peace. They’ve lied about being the party that wants to help poor people. [snip] This is a cadre of criminals and losers and spoiled children of affluent...

Zohran Mamdani, the democratic socialist candidate for New York City mayor, has come under fire from critics who label him a "communist" – a charge he dismisses as a distraction. However, the criticisms may not be as unfounded as Mamdani claims. Videos show the NYC mayoral candidate espousing language and theories rooted in communist revolutionary language. In one 2021 video, Mamdani urges fellow socialists at a conference to not compromise on goals like "seizing the means of production." In a second video, released on YouTube by progressive advocacy group The Gravel Institute that same year, Mamdani discusses the need to...

Dems are too clever by half. One cannot peruse X without reading a democrat whine about the treatment of illegal aliens. A host of democrat mayors and governors have pledged not to cooperate with ICE and the Feds but in so doing are actually helping Donald Trump deport those who have illegally broken into the country. MSNBC political Analyst Tim Miller claims that it's un-American for the Trump administration to deport illegal aliens. Was it also un-American to open our borders and let millions pour in over the last four years? This is one of Trump's strongest policies. Deporting people...

Two Muslim terrorists mowed down Fusilier Le Rigby in a car before hacking him to death in the street in front of horrified onlookers near Woolwich Barracks in south-east London in May 2013. They both said that they were ‘soldiers of Allah.” Democrat Mayoral Candidate Zoran Mamdani shared an article by leftist Glenn Greenwald questioning whether the killing was terrorism because Rigby was a soldier.

<p>To paraphrase the late Freedom Center founder David Horowitz: scratch a tolerant, inclusive, compassionate “liberal” and just underneath the surface you’ll find a raging, totalitarian racist and antisemite. Wisconsin Democrat Congressman Marc Pocan is the latest example of this ugly truth.</p>

The Democrats have stopped bothering to conduct politics; they prefer to engage in max-cringe performance art, and it’s unclear who their audience is. Maybe it’s each other, since this festival of onanism is designed for them to shamefully pleasure themselves while accomplishing nothing. It sure can’t be for the benefit of normal people. For one thing, normal people aren’t on X looking at senators’ social media feeds. For another thing, normal people have better things to do than listen to the tantrums of tedious government functionaries shilling for the dismal side of those proverbial 80/20 issues. It’s hard to get...
