In an effort to "sow discord and shape the outcome of U.S. elections", Iranian cyber actors sent messages during the summer to people involved in President Biden's then re-election campaign containing stolen material from former President Trump's campaign, U.S. agencies said. "Iranian malicious cyber actors in late June and early July sent unsolicited emails to individuals then associated with President Biden’s campaign that contained an excerpt taken from stolen, non-public material from former President Trump’s campaign as text in the emails," the FBI, Cybersecurity and Infrastructure Security Agency and Office of the Director of National Intelligence said in a joint...

A former Democratic politician from California is ditching the Democratic Party and speaking out on Vice President Kamala Harris’ record on education in the state. Former California Senate Majority Leader Gloria Romero announced Wednesday she was changing her voter registration to Republican, stating she has "had enough." "There are so many more like me, who have been disaffected Democrats, and we do not recognize this so-called party of democracy any longer," Romero told "The Ingraham Angle" on Thursday.

To hear the mainstream media tell the story, the just-finished Democratic National Convention was not just about “reintroducing” Kamala Harris to the American people, but about reintroducing the Democratic Party as well. While Americans might have been convinced by nefarious MAGAs and other nogoodniks that the Democrats want to control their lives and tell them what to think, what to drive, what to eat, and how to behave in countless other facets of their lives, the truth is that the Democrats are the party of “freedom.” They—and they alone—stand between the nation and the totalitarianism of the Right. NBC News,...

The vast majority of President Joe Biden’s 2020 supporters who are independents or Democrats are unaware of the “radical” policy positions Vice President Kamala Harris has held, according to a Media Research Center (MRC)/McLaughlin & Associates poll. A review by the MRC finds that legacy media outlets have largely failed to illuminate these issues as Harris hopes to cobble together Biden’s 2020 coalition. The poll, first revealed by MCR’s NewsBusters, found that anywhere from 71 percent to 86 percent of the 400 independents and 800 Democrats polled are unaware of Harris’s “radical” record on particular issues. The following are ten...

Democratic strategist James Carville said Tuesday on MSNBC’s “The Beat” that Vice President Kamala Harris was “not close” to beating former President Donald Trump in November. Guest host Michael Steele said, “I want to touch on a little bit of the noise he made earlier this week, which I personally appreciated and wanted to make sure people understood what I thought of what you said, when you caution folks. All the exuberance and all the excitement we are seeing right now in the campaign is good, it’s healthy, it is important, particularly given the campaign for Joe Biden was. Your...

Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said on CNN’s coverage of President Joe Biden’s withdrawal from the presidential race that with Vice President Kamala Harris at the top of the ticket, Democrats could win the House, Senate and White House. Swalwell said, “Today’s decision by Joe Biden to not seek reelection shows the difference between a selfless president and in Donald Trump a selfish person. And I’ve got a lot of gratitude toward the president for his entire career. He’s stepped up in oftentimes it was reluctantly when he could have devoted his priorities and other directions.”

On Friday’s broadcast of GMGT Live’s “The Reset Talk Show,” New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) argued that Democrats need to have a clear message at the upcoming Democratic National Convention and “We must come up with a real border plan to deal with the migrants and asylum seekers, and we need to be clear on what that plan is.” Adams said, “[W]e need to go to that convention and give a clear message to the American people and build a case on why we should continue to lead the country. … We should be very clear in our...

Former President Donald Trump on Tuesday excoriated Democrats over reported plans to introduce legislation reforming the Supreme Court, contending that such a move amounted to an attack on the justice system. Reports emerged the same evening that President Joe Biden is planning to endorse reforms to the court, including the implementation of term limits and a code of ethics. Such an effort comes amid longstanding Democratic frustrations with the conservative leaning bench and in the wake of a string of reports highlighting the justices' ethics disclosures. "The Radical Left Democrats are desperately trying to 'Play the Ref' by calling for...

Former President Donald Trump was wounded in an assassination attempt at a Pennsylvania rally on Saturday months after House Democrats proposed legislation to remove his Secret Service protection. Democrat Bennie Thompson, the ranking member of the House Committee on Homeland Security, introduced the Denying Infinite Security and Government Resources Allocated toward Convicted and Extremely Dishonorable (DISGRACED) Former Protectees Act (HR 8081) on April 19. Democrat Reps. Yvette D. Clarke, Troy A. Carter Sr., Frederica Wilson, Bonnie Watson Coleman, Jasmine Crockett, Joyce Beatty, Barbara Lee, and Steve Cohen co-sposnsored the bill. “Former President Donald J. Trump’s unprecedented 91 felony charges in...

WASHINGTON—An effort by some Democrats to seek an alternative to President Biden as the party’s nominee appeared to flag on Tuesday, with lawmakers signaling no clear path forward after the president made clear he was dead set against stepping aside. House and Senate Democrats held conference meetings for the first time since Biden flopped at the first presidential debate, a debacle for the party that heightened concerns that the 81-year-old incumbent couldn’t beat former President Donald Trump and may not be fit enough for another four years even if he did win. Lawmakers aired their frustrations with their predicament but...

Senator Tom Cotton writes letter to Biden, criticizing his administration for withholding weapons and ammunition from Israel as it continues to battle Hamas.

During the 2016 cycle, Hillary Clinton boasted about how Republicans were probably the enemy she was most proud of making. But now she’s sounding almost envious. While riffing about Democratic failures to defend Roe v. Wade, Clinton, 76, griped that her party sometimes lacks the relentless resolve the right has. “One thing I give the right credit for is they never give up,” she told the New York Times in a recent interview. “They are relentless. You know, they take a loss, they get back up, they regroup, they raise more money.”

The Liberty Justice Center secured a court order temporarily halting enforcement of an Illinois law that Gov. J.B. Pritzker hastily enacted prohibiting candidates that didn't run in the primary from being slated for the November election. Earlier this month, super-majority Democrats in the Illinois legislature approved and the governor signed a mid-election year law ending the slating of candidates. Following a lawsuit, a Sangamon County judge ruled Wednesday that Illinois’ ability to enforce the election law against potential candidates is on hold. Prior to signing the bill, Pritzker called it an “ethics bill.” “It really does make sure that we...

MSNBC host Symone Sanders said Tuesday on “Morning Joe” that Democrats “definitely think” there is a path for President Joe Biden and other Democrats to win Florida in the November election. Sanders said, “Last year, when Republican legislators in Florida passed that six-week abortion ban, and they passed it because people were coming to Florida to get abortions because it was one of the only places left in the southeast where you could get an abortion if that was the care that you needed. Ron DeSantis didn’t like that, so he pressured the legislature to pass an even stricter abortion...

You’ve probably heard of the “Not In My Backyard” — or NIMBY — movement, but you might not be familiar with “Yes In My Backyard,” an approach that embraces affordable housing development in every community. We face a national housing crisis, and Americans cannot afford to turn a blind eye to the needs of our neighbors, ignore the problem or hope someone else will solve it. We need more YIMBYs. As chair of the New Democrat Coalition’s Affordable Housing Task Force, I’m proud to lead our group of YIMBY Democrats in the House, and unveil the New Dems’ comprehensive Housing...

California Democrats are pushing to replace the current one-time gun registration system with a once-a-year registration requirement, coupled with a fee to the state. In the bill, SB 1160, Democrats pledge to use the fee to fund the state’s gun registration system: “The bill would require the registrant to annually pay a fee, as specified, to be deposited into a special fund that is continuously appropriated to the department for the express purpose of carrying out the administration and enforcement of the firearm registry.” SB 1160 will also be used to create a new “program” focused on unregistered guns: “This...

CNN host Charles Barkley blasted Joe Biden and the Democrat Party and said he understands why Democrats are losing black voters in droves. He also walked back his threat to punch black voters who support Donald Trump. The co-host of CNN’s King Charles Show insisted that he knew why blacks were leaving the Democrat Party during Wednesday evening’s broadcast. Barkley said that Democrats completely ignore blacks until election time comes around, and then they are suddenly full of promises and pandering for votes.

A well-coordinated, well-funded, and high-powered network of leftist organizations, led by a group whose efforts 2016 Democrat presidential nominee Hillary Rodham Clinton promoted, is behind the push to remove former President Donald Trump, the 2024 frontrunner for president from any party, from the ballot, Breitbart News has learned. But it’s much broader than that: For years, this network of leftists grew from a powerful vast left-wing conspiracy unmasked a decade ago into now being the dominating force on the left determined to stop Trump at all costs. What’s more, these leftists clearly control what top Democrats are saying, forcing their...

Allies of President Biden are stepping up calls for Democrats to rally around the president, following negative commentary and splits from inside the party over whether he should forgo reelection. Former President Obama’s senior adviser David Axelrod has been the most notable Democrat to cause a ruckus when he suggested earlier this month that Biden step aside and further advised that the president has a “50-50 shot” of winning in 2024.
