Kamala Harris’ new security detail is made up of Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) officers, who have been reassigned to guard the former vice president after President Trump withdrew her Secret Service protection, according to a report. As many as 14 of LAPD’s elite Metro Division officers have been “pulled from working cases” and “crime suppression efforts” to provide security for Harris, local outlet FOX 11 reported on Wednesday. The outlet recorded an unmarked LAPD SUV with at least two plainclothes officers sitting in the driveway outside Harris’ home in the upscale Brentwood neighborhood of Los Angeles, where the failed...

This is not the hill for the Democrats to die on.I haven’t written about it here at The American Spectator, at least that I can remember, but I’m becoming a subscriber to the theory that Donald Trump is the kryptonite to Saul Alinsky’s Superman.What I mean by that is the Alinskyite Left, which encompasses basically the whole of today’s Democrat Party ever since Barack Obama took it over in the mid-2000s, is built on a definite roster of political tactics and principles, and those tactics and principles are calibrated to defeat a certain type of opponent.

You’ve got to hand it to her; no one in America has worked harder than Michigan’s Democrat Secretary of State Jocelyn Benson to earn the title of the nation’s dirtiest election official. Benson UOCAVA Online Voting On September 22, 2024, we warned of a shocking plan by Democrats to steal the upcoming general election. In the 2000 presidential election, a mere 629 votes separated the race between George W. Bush and Al Gore in Florida. When the absentee overseas votes finally arrived, George W. Bush was able to take the 537-vote lead from Al Gore and win the presidency. On...

The North Carolina Department of Adult Correction is actively searching for Nikia Monique Thompson, the fugitive daughter of New York Attorney General Letitia James’s niece. Thompson, listed as an “Absconder” (offender number 0898340) on the department’s official site, is wanted for violating probation terms. North Carolina authorities are urging anyone with knowledge of her whereabouts to call their tip line at 1-888-646-0024. Where is Nikia Monique Thompson hiding? All indications, including from Letitia James herself, are that Thompson is hiding out at Letitia’s “mortgage fraud” home in Norfolk, Virgina. This means that Letitia James herself could be charged with harboring...

“. . . this time the story has escaped the narrative guardrails and some real reckoning looms.” —Jeff Childers Unwittingly, that New York Times headline is a wondrous case of the self-solving mystery. You come here to understand the many social and political mysteries of the day. I will attempt to unravel this hairball.Most obviously, the suspect, now dead, in Wednesday’s Minneapolis school shooting was not a “her.” He was a him, a 23-year-old male, Robert Westman, who had been pretending to be a female for some years since undergoing puberty, with the encouragement of his parents and the cultural...

The president has barely broken a sweat in coaxing leftists to reveal just who they are.It’s been like taking candy from a baby. President Trump, armed with a thorough understanding of the left’s debilitating and seemingly incurable Trump Derangement Syndrome (the clinical designation is TDS), has been shamelessly and effortlessly baiting his sworn enemies into loudly opposing his many initiatives supported by strong or even overwhelming majorities of the American people. It has almost been too easy.In fact, the president has turned it into an art form. He realizes that all he needs to do to coax leftists into adopting...

The Democratic National Committee’s summer meeting opened Monday, with one of the first items on its agenda being a “land acknowledgement.” The DNC’s meeting comes weeks after a Quinnipiac poll showing only 19% of respondents approved of the party’s congressional leadership was released, while the party also dealt with infighting and difficulty meeting fundraising goals. After reciting the Pledge of Allegiance and brief remarks from the pastor of Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota’s church, DNC Chairman Ken Martin introduced the next speaker. “Now please welcome a friend of mine from the Minnesota DFL, the treasurer, her name is Lindy...

White House Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Advisor Stephen Miller told reporters Monday that the Trump administration has uncovered a “massive scandal” in Washington D.C. involving the doctoring of crime statistics. He said the alleged corruption is currently under investigation and said details of the corruption will soon be brought to light. “The results will stun you,” he said. Miller made the remarks in the Oval Office after President Trump signed a slew of new executive orders to end cashless bail throughout the United States and in the District of Columbia, prosecute the burning of the...

Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick canceled an Biden administration agreement Monday to distribute billions of dollars for semiconductor research through a nonprofit set up and staffed by former political appointees, according to a letter obtained by The Post. The 2022 CHIPS and Science Act provided for $11 billion in semiconductor research and development funding to be given out by the Commerce Department’s National Semiconductor Technology Center. “Rather than establishing these operations within the Department, however, Biden Administration officials spent significant time, effort, and resources creating an unaccountable, outside entity–Natcast–to administer taxpayer funds,” Lutnick wrote Natcast CEO Deirdre Hanford. Four days before...

Axios co-founder Mike Allen appeared on Monday's Morning Joe to tout the outlet's article, "Trump's identity project," which begins [emphasis added]: "Through immigration crackdowns and cultural purges, President Trump is wielding government power to enforce a more rigid, exclusionary definition of what it means to be American." Allen cites as an example: "We see this in a new question for citizenship applications, an assessment of whether they're of good moral character."Uh, Mike, hello? That "new" question has been around since 1790, in our country's very first naturalization law. It reads: "The court admitting such alien shall be satisfied that he...

Top Dem donor and Gavin Newsom backer raised $300 million by touting "Corporate ESG Business" based on fake revenue.Joe Sanberg, a top California Democrat activist who decried the corruption of big Wall Street banks and started a company marketed as the “cleaner” alternative, actually propped that company up through blatant fraud, he admitted Thursday. Sanberg and other high-profile Democrats started the carbon-credit platform and online banking app Aspiration Partners Inc., promising to plant trees and not invest in polluting industries. Its motto was “clean rich is the new filthy rich.” It was once a star of the “environmental, social, and...

The rogue judicial branch continues to overstep its bounds. In the latest example yet, a federal judge just ordered the effective shutdown of Florida’s Alligator Alcatraz detention facility. Judge Kathleen Williams, an Obama appointee, ruled that no new illegal alien detainees can be brought in to Alligator Alcatraz. In addition, she has barred further construction and given orders for many parts of the facility to be dismantled within 60 days. Here are the details: JUST IN: A federal judge has barred the Trump admin and FL from bringing new detainees into “Alligator Alcatraz” and to dismantle some aspects of the...

For years, Washington, D.C.’s so-called leaders resigned themselves to the idea that crime was inevitable. Then came President Donald Trump, who saw a problem and took the novel approach of actually doing something about it — sending in the National Guard to restore order in the capital.The result? For the first time in ages, D.C. has gone seven straight days without a single homicide. According to Fox45, the capital has also seen carjackings decrease by 83%, “robberies by 46%, car thefts by 21%, and overall violent crime is down 22%.”Sgt. Betsy Smith of the National Police Association said Washington, D.C.’s...

HOLY CRAP! President Trump's decision to fire the Democrat Puerto Rico financial oversight board members has just been totally vindicated. The attorneys and consultants overseeing the Puerto Rico bankruptcy have spent millions on luxurious properties while everyday residents are dealing with dilapidating buildings. This comes after the board spent over 5 TIMES as much as estimated - over $2 billion on these "consultants," when $370M was expected. The waste, fraud and abuse has gone too far. It has to be cleaned up. 📽️ @street_gonzo

A California State Senator just said during a hearing on redistricting that they have to redraw California's maps because illegal aliens won't be included in the census which will cause them to "have no democracy left."

Chris Cuomo declares the Democrat Party is DEAD 💀 Cuomo tells me elitism, open borders, socialism and defund the police killed the modern Democrat Party. Cuomo says the Democratic Party that his father was apart of “no longer exists” and he “doesn’t know why” his brother still registers as a Democrat. “My brother’s a Democrat. I don’t know why, but he is. My father was a Democrat. But his party doesn’t exist anymore.” “Now it's the left arguing for a cultural elite. This is how you will talk about people, Benny.
