Alaska Democratic Senate hopeful Mary Peltola rejected support this week from former Vice President Kamala Harris, who lost the state by double-digits in her failed 2024 presidential campaign. “Alaska is a must-win Senate seat for Democrats to retake control of the Senate,” Harris wrote in a fundraising email, urging the public to “help Mary Peltola get the support she needs” by splitting a donation between Peltola’s campaign and the ex-veep’s Fight for the People PAC. Harris continued, “So if there’s anyone who can flip Alaska and secure the Senate majority for Democrats – it’s Mary. But she cannot do it...

As more and more Democratic Socialist candidates win primaries, their anti-Israel rhetoric gets louder and more pronounced. American Jews have traditionally been a reliable voting bloc for Democrats. But as the party embraces new candidates who seem to have no love for Israel, Jewish leaders are becoming increasingly concerned. The recent primary victory of Abdul El-Sayed has Jewish leaders in Michigan sharing that concern. So much so that on Monday, several of those leaders sent a petition to the Michigan Democratic Party, asking for assurance of the safety of Jewish delegates at the convention. The petition, signed by roughly 200...

“The left are incompetent biotrash who purge everyone too attractive, too capable or too intelligent to uncritically accept their retarded worldview.” —Aimee Terese on “X” And so, all of a sudden, having failed to subvert or assassinate the president they abhor, and foil his attempt to repair our country, the combined forces of the Democratic Party, the seditious news media, and a traitorous government bureaucracy resort to communist jihad in their crusade to wreck the USA. That’s a great combo, all right: history’s worst system for managing human affairs paired with a cult of bloodthirsty conquest. They’d decapitate the Beach...

Longtime Clinton ally Julian Epstein urged Republicans to take action within the university system to 'save' the country. Partial transcript- I'm Julian Epstein. Uh, I'm a longtime Democrat. Uh, I was formerly the chief counsel of the House Judiciary Committee and the staff director of the House Oversight Committee for the Democrats. In terms of the question as to what the Democrats can do right now to reverse course and, um, and shift back towards the center, the first thing is to recognize why the party is going off the deep end here. It's first a question of incompetence. The...

James Talarico is too radical for Texas.

This video, presented by Dr. Steve Turley, outlines a series of recent federal arrests and indictments of prominent Democrat politicians and figures, which he characterizes as a "reckoning" for the party under the leadership of Attorney General Todd Blanch.

Kathy Hochul received $55,000 in campaign contributions from social adult daycare centers (SADCs) in fraud-plagued Flushing, Queens, records show. Almost half of those donations can be linked to two men: local powerbroker Baoli Zhang, and Jiemin Shang — who own two of Flushing’s biggest daycare businesses, both of which were empty of patients when visited by The Post last week. Zhang, 69, personally donated $10,000, as well as another $5,000 through his Bao Kang Adult Day Care, financial disclosures show. Zhang’s various businesses have claimed at least $32 million from Medicaid since 2018, on behalf of tens of thousands of...

Tuesday’s CNN This Morning played a clip of the radical DSA candidate, the favorite to win Wisconsin’s Democratic gubernatorial primary, supposedly walking back her insanely radical positions. In the clip, she offers this defense of her past calls to defund the police, abolish the U.S. Senate, and cancel Thanksgiving: “I learned then you have some hot takes, sometimes bad takes, on Twitter, and I let my feelings out into the world.” Francesca, Francesca! You let your feelings out? Do you realize you just admitted the crazy stuff is actually how you feel? Host Audie Cornish did her best to cushion...

A veteran Democratic attorney is putting the legacy media on blast for falling short in its coverage of the "civil war" that has broken out between moderates and far-left socialists with the Democratic Party. Julian Epstein, who served as the chief legal counsel for House-Democrats during the Clinton impeachment hearing and later worked on Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, made waves last week declaring his support for Republican Mike Rogers over progressive darling Abdul El-Sayed in Michigan's Senate race.[....l] "If you rely on [MSNOW] for news, I think you're basically illiterate and uninformed about what's going on, Epstein told Fox News....

Planned Parenthood just announced a $47 million budget for their midterm election blitz. The ACLU is spending $25 million specifically to push pro-abortion propaganda. And, Reproductive Freedom for All (formerly NARAL) is spending $23.5 million. That’s nearly $100 million, all aimed at one goal: flipping the U.S. Senate for Chuck Schumer, his pals at the DSA (Democratic Socialists of America), and the Abortion Lobby this November. Last week we got proof their plan may be working. A new poll out of Texas shows Democrat James Talarico jumping to a 5-point lead over Attorney General Ken Paxton in the race for...

Bill Maher, host of HBO's "Real Time" talk show, stunned his mostly liberal audience by admitting that "President Trump's assertion that the Democratic Socialists of America are communists is accurate. I have mercilessly criticized Trump for his trillion lies, but in this instance I have to acknowledge the truth behind what he says." "Look, the DSA spokespeople reject the promise of liberty made in our nation's founding documents," Maher reminded his audience. "They want to replace liberty with collectivism and conformity enforced by a government that considers individuals as resources to be exploited without their consent. As liberals, we want...

Billionaire heiress Elizabeth Simons is pouring hundreds of thousands of dollars into the Democratic Party’s campaign to retake the House — even as she bankrolls the socialist causes and candidates that have Democrats’ establishment leaders increasingly on edge.Simons, who previously cut a $250,000 check to a super PAC backing Mayor Zohran Mamdani, has donated $354,000 to the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee — the party’s chief House campaign arm — and thousands more to individual House candidates this election cycle. The donations, ironically, put Simons behind the same Democratic leadership forces trying to prevent the party’s increasingly powerful progressive wing from...

Non-college voters, the base of the MAGA movement, are abandoning the GOP. MAGA's net favorability is -22 pts (down 28 pts) with them. Trump's now at -19 pt net approval with them. Dems actually lead in the race for Congress with them. This is what blue waves are built on. ...

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer gave Michigan Senate hopeful Dr. Abdul El-Sayed a tepid endorsement not long after the former public health official called for his ouster, During his anti-establishment campaign, El-Sayed took swipes at Schumer (D-NY), whom he wants replaced as Democratic leader. Schumer returned the favor by preferring El-Sayed’s foe Rep. Haley Stevens (D-Mich.), who lost by a 1% margin Tuesday. “Look, at the end of the day, the current minority leader has given all of us ample reason to question whether or not he would be our best bet heading into a cycle where we might have...
