Stephen Gardner update. The interview features Vince Ellison, who argues that the Democratic Party is actively trying to turn America into a Marxist nation. He claims they are evil, supporting things like atheism, Marxism, abortion, open borders, and drug trafficking. Ellison states they have a long history of trying to legally murder Americans, dating back to supporting slavery and later abortion. Ellison also discusses the history of racism and the Ku Klux Klan, arguing they were connected to the Democratic Party, not the Republicans. He explains how the Democrats have kept black communities poor and under their control. The discussion...

We talk frequently – those of us who are paying attention – about the various policy proposals of the opposite sides in American politics. It goes back centuries; it predates our founding era, even. One side has one solution and the other side proposes an alternative; both sides debate, and eventually one option or the other is tried. Sometimes – and this is one of the goals of the idea of states’ rights – some states try one method and other states try the other. The “laboratories of democracy” concept is given its opportunity, and we can see which methods...

Democrat Senator John Fetterman responds to concerns over changing the Senate dress code to accommodate his hoodies and gym shorts: "Her platform, you know, really, she runs on more and more dingaling, you know, pics, you know, on in the meetings over in Congress"

"As a rule, I have found that the greater brain a man has, and the better educated, the easier it has been to mystify him." So said master illusionist Harry Houdini. He said it during his spat with Sherlock Holmes’ creator Sir Arthur Conan Doyle over the latter’s belief in seances and fairies. Despite being a literary genius, Conan Doyle nevertheless had some foolish ideas. He’s not alone. Researchers have even coined ‘Nobel Disease,’ referring to the tendency for some Nobel Prize winners to embrace unconventional beliefs. Charles Richet, for instance, won the 1913 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine...

“He told me that he, or he and a group, were going to make a significant contribution to the Democratic Party. … I said 'wow, that’s a lot of money.’” Movie star Leonardo DiCaprio took the stand in a federal trial on Monday that seeks to hammer down the details of what appears to be a money-funneling scheme that features a Malaysian financier funneling tens of millions of dollars through a prominent 90s rap artist for the purpose of donating to former President Barack Obama’s 2012 re-election campaign. DiCaprio plays into the saga because he was said to have partied...

I love our country. Our God-given rights of freedom, life, and liberty enshrined in our Constitution and Bill of Rights are my inspiration. I answered the call to duty and took an oath, dedicating my life to supporting and defending those freedoms, both in uniform and in public office.

Former congressman, veteran, and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (D, Hawaii) made news this week by leaving the Democratic Party, with a stinging public rebuke to the corruption and warmongering of its current leadership. She wins points with reasonable people whenever she's on television, and why not? Tulsi Gabbard is attractive, well-spoken, logical... always a welcome talk show guest because she's willing to call out her fellow Democrats for some of their extreme, destructive positions. But don't be fooled. Tulsi Gabbard is NOT one of us. America may owe Tulsi Gabbard a debt of gratitude for her wonderful takedown of Kamala...

The private consortium that reported election "misinformation" to tech platforms during the 2020 election season, in "consultation" with federal agencies, targeted several news organizations in its dragnet. Websites for Just the News, New York Post, Fox News, Washington Examiner, Washington Times, Epoch Times and Breitbart were identified among the 20 "most prominent domains across election integrity incidents" that were cited in tweets flagged by the Election Integrity Partnership and its collaborators. The Department of Homeland Security's Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency, the State Department, and liberal groups such as the Democratic National Committee, also flagged purported misinformation through the consortium.

I can't stress this enough: at its core, Democratic politics is about criminalizing opposition to their party and ideology. Dissenting ideas are "disinformation" and must be censored by Big Tech. Trump voters are inherently criminal "("insurrectionists") and should be imprisoned.

Fact Checkers Cover for Democratic Party’s Sordid History With the Ku Klux KlanDuring a June 7th Senate Judiciary Committee hearing on white supremacy and domestic terrorism, U.S. Senator Ted Cruz stated that:the Ku Klux Klan “was formed by elected Democrats.”Klan “leadership was almost entirely elected Democrats.”today’s Democrats “try very hard to erase the history” of their party’s involvement with the Klan.today’s Democrats “politicize acts of violence.”Conversely, “fact checkers” like PolitiFact and the Associated Press have repeatedly argued that the Democratic Party did not found the Klan, played a limited role in it, and that racist southerners fled to the Republican...

Communist/socialist-inspired groups have been quickly winning converts and taking control of the Democratic Party, at both the national and local levels. Four U.S. communist groups have formed an alliance to take over the Democratic Party at every level. With a combined membership of more than 65,000 and significant financial backing from unions, foundations, and even some churches, the plan is credible and is already well under way. Three of the four groups involved — Communist Party USA (CPUSA), Committees of Correspondence for Democracy and Socialism (CCDS), and Freedom Road Socialist Organization (FRSO) — are loyal to Beijing, while the fourth...

Democrats passed laws called "Black Codes," which included taking guns away from Blacks. Download as PDF The Democrat Legislature of North Carolina passed a Black Code, published in 1825: "No slave shall go armed with gun, sword, club, or other weapon, or shall keep any such weapon, or shall hunt or range with a gun in the woods, upon any pretence whatsoever: and if any slave shall be found offending herein, it shall and may be lawful for any person or persons to seize and take to his own use, such gun, sword, or other weapon, and to apprehend...

Behar questioned why Republican voters were "falling" for it and claimed they were "voting against their own interests." "The Democratic Party is trying to help them with their lives," she declared.

Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, her Chief of Staff Cheryl Mills, and Sen. Bob Menendez (D., N.J.) supported a visa waiver for the daughter of a fugitive Ecuadorian banker in exchange for significant campaign contributions to the Democratic Party. On Tuesday, NBC 4 New York reported that Menendez, with express written support from Clinton, intervened on behalf of Estefania Isaías, who was banned from traveling to the U.S. due to accusations of visa fraud. Isaías is the daughter of Roberto Isaias, who lives in Miami and is currently fighting extradition to Ecuador for banking crimes and under investigation for...

In 1840, item seven of the Democrats' Party Platform read ... For six consecutive party platforms — from 1840 through 1860 — Democrats used their party platform to promote the institution of slavery.

On July 4, 1776, the United States of America declared themselves free and independent states, commencing a long journey to give the world a shining example of a nation in which limited government existed solely to secure the liberty of its individual citizens. This journey took a long time to accomplish. First, a War of Independence, then an economic retooling of the nation, then a long fight to find some way to eliminate the inhuman way that one class of Americans – the slaves - were treated under the law. Some call slavery “the original sin” of the American republic....

A couple of largely unknown Congressmen from California – Rep Jimmy Panetta (D, Beijing) and Rep Ted Lieu (D, Tehran) - assembled a couple dozen fellow Democrats and issued a letter last week, proposing that the nuclear codes were too important to entrust to the President alone. Citing contemporary rumors and slanders about past presidents’ illnesses or incapacitation, this group declared that we should revise the whole approach America takes to the “nuclear football.” They posit that no nuclear weapons should be used without such democratic steps as a Congressional declaration of war, and such fail-safes as a requirement that...

For decades, Illinois House speaker Michael Madigan dominated the state’s political system, corrupting it to his own ends. What should we make of his ouster? The Chicago machine turned out some of the most notorious names in American public corruption, including Anton Cermak, Richard J. Daley, and Ed Kelly. The machine also turned out Mike Madigan, who ruled over Illinois politics for 50 years, 36 of which he spent calling the shots as House speaker. Most people thought Madigan would only leave office in handcuffs or a casket. Most people were wrong. For the first time since 1970, “the Velvet...

In September, October, and November, the dead voted. This is stated as fact, by reporters and politicians, by attorneys and prosecutors. But it makes no sense. Zombies and vampires are fictional, the dead can’t really vote. So what does it mean when people say they did? Well, sometimes, there’s a simple explanation: through the use of such tools as traditional absentee ballots and the recent explosion of mail-in voting and “early voting,” it’s possible for a person to vote legally in September or October and die on or before election day. This does happen occasionally, but it’s a miniscule percentage...

The last few years for any Trump supporter were awful. Cancel culture, as I’ve always said, is a toxic concept. Cancel culture especially goes after anyone aligned with Donald Trump. You see people harassed in college, potentially get fired, or lose family/friends for having the “wrong opinion.” We have dealt with the worst of the worst, but now, the Left wants to be for “peace and unity?” I don’t buy it for one second. Democrats don’t, and never did, stand for peace and unity. If anything, it’s the opposite.
