Actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus said Friday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that if Vice President Kamala Harris wins in November, the country’s discourse will become “kinder and more effective.” Louis-Dreyfus said, “I think making fun of it is a very good step. It points out the absurdity of the situation. And I think can drive home a point in a way that has teeth. And I was happy to lend my sort of skill set to that arena. I’m not a politician. I’m not an expert on various issues that we’re up against today. But I do know, I do feel strongly...

Governor Maura Healey (D-MA) said Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation” that former President Donald Trump’s proposal to have the government or insurance companies cover in vitro fertilization (IVF) was not believable because he “will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing.” Healey said, “You can’t take this seriously. I mean, this isn’t just a Republican — and by the way, I work well with Republicans — this is Donald Trump, who will say anything and everything depending on where the wind is blowing. He caught some heat the other day, you know, and so he...

This is breaking news that will be updated as more information becomes available. Keep reading below.

Hollywood star Sally Field is claiming Kamala Harris stands for democracy even though she didn’t receive a single vote in the Democratic primary. Sally Field announced her return to social media over the weekend with two Instagram posts. In one, she trashed former President Donald Trump. In the other, she endorsed Kamala Harris, claiming a vote for the Harris-Walz ticket is a vote for “democracy.” “Hope is here,” the Norma Rae actress wrote, later adding: “Vote for our country, our children and grandchildren. Vote for the earth and women and human rights. Vote for democracy. Vote for @kamalaharris and @timwalz...

Chuck Schumer is doing us a favor. Often, parties try to obscure or deny their radical plans prior to an election, but the Senate majority leader is being more candid. In a session with reporters at the Democratic National Convention, Schumer (D-NY) suggested that — should Democrats win the White House, Senate and House in November — he would seek to end the filibuster for purposes of passing voting rights and abortion legislation. This would be an inflection point in American government. There’s no nuking the legislative filibuster a little bit. The end run around the Senate’s long-standing requirement for...

I can't even... Yesterday I wrote about how shamelessness is a superpower, and I have to say that it is a wonder to behold. As the Democrats gather in Chicago to experience the religious ecstasy of being surrounded by each other and sniffing their own farts, they are treated to speeches from elite hypocrites who pretend to be perfectly normal people. Last night was the ol' HOPENCHANGE shtick, with Michele and Barack Obama babbling on about things they don't believe while Obama sycophants babble on about how their "spiritual voids" were filled by the Lightbringer. An emotional high point was,...

Filmmaker Spike Lee said Wednesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room” that he got “side-eye” and questions about former President Donald Trump when he traveled abroad during his term. On the floor of the Democratic National Convention in Chicago, Lee said, “I wanted to be here. This is not history, this is herstory. She’s going to be the first woman to be President of this United States of America. Blended family, you know, the whole Howard University, HBCU, you know. So, this is an amazing moment in the history of these United States of America. And we got to go —...

Lies on Elon Musk’s X have instigated some of the worst racial riots in Britain’s history. Musk recently posted a comment to his hundreds of millions of followers claiming “Civil war is inevitable” in the U.K., and asserted that the British criminal justice system treats Muslims more leniently than far-right activists. European Union commissioner Thierry Breton sent Musk an open letter reminding him of EU laws against amplifying harmful content “that promotes hatred, disorder, incitement to violence, or certain instances of disinformation” and warning that the EU “will be extremely vigilant” about protecting “EU citizens from serious harm.” Musk’s response...

Presidential hopeful Kamala Harris and her husband Doug Emhoff have refinanced their luxury properties on the east and west coast ten times with loans totaling $13M. The second couple, both 59, have borrowed way in excess of what they’re worth – their joint fortune estimated at $8 million by Forbes. And, surprisingly, their various home loans and lines of credit are all with Wells Fargo Bank, the lending giant Kamala battled when she was Attorney General of California. Harris was in litigation for years with Wells Fargo just as she and Emhoff were living in a luxury property in the...

FLIP & FLOP -- the Josh Shapiro problem In addition to the HUSH MONEY (remember that phrase?) scandal in his gubernatorial office, in which Shapiro has refused to elaborate, Shapiro has another problem -- his flip-flopping on Israel. Should he become Harris's running mate, I think we now have the moniker for them. FLIP & FLOP. That's the ticket. https://nypost.com/2024/08/03/us-news/potential-harris-vp-pick-josh-shapiro-on-defense-over-israel-after-decades-old-college-essay-surfaces/

Thompson tried to take away Trump’s Secret Service protection. He also served on the January 6th commission. Thompson doesn’t belong anywhere near this investigation. The Federalist reported: Democrats Eye J6 Chairman Who Tried To Eliminate Trump’s Secret Service Protection To Investigate Assassination Attempt

Rep. Mark Pocan (D-WI) announced he would boycott Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s “wildly inappropriate” joint address to Congress on Wednesday, insisting he would rather serve the Israeli leader an arrest warrant for war crimes on the House floor. In a press release published shortly before the long-awaited congressional address, Pocan declared he would not attend the event, citing Netanyahu’s “deadly and excessive response” to Hamas’s unprecedented, unprovoked, and brutal October 7, 2023, attack, the deadliest against Jewish people since the Nazi Holocaust.

Jerrold Nadler is a despicable liar. Democrat Rep. Nadler (NY) blamed President Trump for the assassination attempt on his life on Wednesday during a hearing with FBI Director Christopher Wray. On July 13 President Trump was grazed in the ear after a 20-year-old gunman named Thomas Matthew Crooks climbed on a roof and took several shots at Trump and rallygoers in Butler. The assassination attempt happened just one week after Biden issued veiled threats to Trump. In a phone call with Democrat donors on July 8, Biden said “it’s time to put Trump in the bullseye.” Joe Biden also issued...

Singer-actress Bette Midler, star of Disney’s Hocus Pocus 2, suggested that President Joe Biden arrest Republican members of Congress and allow the FBI to use deadly force in order regain Democrat House majority. “Now that Joe has total immunity, many are urging him to be GOP ruthless. Here’s a suggestion for implementing his new powers,” Midler wrote in a Friday X post, sharing a screenshot from an opinion piece published by The New Republic.

Schumer-linked PAC latest instance of Democrats relying on dark money while claiming to oppose it.. A new dark money group that has been blanketing swing state airwaves with ads supporting vulnerable Democratic senators has taken steps to conceal its ties to Senate majority leader Chuck Schumer’s (D., N.Y.) super PAC, according to a Washington Free Beacon review of tax records. The 501(c)4 nonprofit group, Duty and Honor, has invested heavily in swing states this election cycle on ads casting vulnerable Democratic senators as bipartisan champions of border security. The group invested $2.4 million in Ohio in May on an ad...

After a brutal, unprovoked attack by a homeless man at a McDonald's drive-through in Boyle Heights that left 74-year-old Jose Juan Rangel battered and bruised and his wife Maria Guadalupe Vargas Luna brain-dead, the family has received yet another blow. This time, the LA County District Attorney George Gascón's office states they plan to file a motion to dismiss the most severe charge against Charles Green, a felony count, and only keep the lesser charge of misdemeanor battery. "The DA, in my opinion, is brushing it off. They're not really seeing the big picture of what impact the injuries that...

New York Times columnist Thomas L. “Tom” Friedman, a close associate of President Joe Biden, writes in his latest column that the U.S should force Israel to give up the war against Hamas in Gaza and let the terror group claim “victory.” Friedman is a “conduit” for messages from the White House about Middle East policy, according to Politico, and therefore his column can be interpreted as a threat to Israel — an “ultimatum,” as Friedman puts it, on the war. The columnist, once respected for his reporting during the First Lebanon War, has become a Democratic Party mouthpiece, and...

Left-wing radio host Dean Obeidallah said Friday on MSNBC’s “The ReidOut” that the Republican Party is a “fascist movement” that will use violence to acquire power. Obeidallah said, “Apparently, yesterday was bring a terrorist to work day because that’s the reality. What so angers me is that January 6 was an act of domestic terrorism. That’s what Christopher Wray, the FBI director, testified before the House and Senate. Those Republicans know, Ted Cruz even leaked out one saying it was an act of terrorism. Then, he had to apologize for telling the truth. They welcomed a terrorist to the Capitol...

Governor Josh Shapiro (D-PA) said Thursday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that Republican supporters of former President Donald Trump are “profoundly and pathetically weak people.” Shapiro said, “When Donald Trump sued us to try to first stop people from voting then had their votes count, he and his allies sued us 42 times. We went 43-0. We had a free and fair, safe and secure election. Then look at the ballot box while Donald Trump squeaked out a victory in 2016 in Pennsylvania by just over 40,000 votes, in every subsequent election, either Donald Trump or his hand picked candidate lost. They...
