Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) is facing an ethics complaint filed to the United States Senate over comments she made earlier this month that many characterized as a "threat" to conservatives who are thinking about working for the Trump administration. During an Oct. 13 University of Chicago event, Slotkin drew criticism after a clip went viral showing her saying she wants to pursue "signature cases" against people who "enabled" President Donald Trump and push a "deterrence message" for young people. "I want young people coming out of school to say, 'Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like, that sounds...

Pennsylvania congressional candidate and state Rep. Chris Rabb said this week that while he's against incarceration, he's in favor of locking up "lawless MAGA thugs." "I’m a decarceration person," Rabb said on left-wing podcaster Wajahat Ali's show. "I believe the country that represents 5% of the world population but 25% of the people put in cages is morally wrong. "It’s also bad policy, but I will make an exception for all of those f---ers who are lawless MAGA thugs, who have destroyed lives and communities. Lock all of those f---ers up.

Lemon: “Look, I never say never. Look, I’ve got a lot on my plate right now doing what I’m doing. This is not easy to do every day, but I am very aware of the importance of what I’m doing, what it means to the culture and society. … When I’m out there, they’re not only saying thank you...

Corporate media have giddily elevated a leftist-led protest outside the U.S. Supreme Court on Monday that occurred while the justices heard arguments in a battle over Democrats’ climate lawfare. But the real story surrounding this kerfuffle centers around several of the demonstration’s participants and their involvement in the case. In Suncor v. Boulder, the high court will determine the fate of a lawsuit brought by Boulder, Colorado, against Suncor Energy companies and Exxon Mobil. The locality is seeking monetary damages based on allegations that the oil giants’ activities are contributing to “climate change,” which is harming its residents. The New...

The American presenter Tucker Carlson has claimed Britain would have been better off losing the Second World War to an incredulous Jacob Rees-Mogg – but says he is not a Nazi supporter. The US commentator was widely mocked after his most recent episode of the Tucker Carlson show, featuring former Tory minister Mr Rees-Mogg, aired last night. In the online show, Mr Carlson claimed Britain 'destroyed their empire and their country fighting this war that they still pretend was a good idea but it wasn't'. The former Fox News presenter – who once described Darryl Cooper, a Holocaust denier, as...

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani hosted lefty leaders from across the globe on Saturday to kick off a three-day summit pushing progressive agenda items like dealing with climate change. Mamdani delivered opening remarks at the Urban 20 Summit in New York City, where he and other mayors discussed “practical solutions” to address “rising housing costs, the climate crisis and migration,” according to a propaganda press statement released by the socialist mayor’s media team.

The apparent call to burn Trump supporters isn’t her only expression of support for violence.

William Lawrence, the Democratic nominee for a competitive House seat in Michigan, has called for a "world without borders" and to "redistribute all the land and all the money" to make up for America's "evil deeds." The former Democratic Socialist—who left the party this summer—made the comments less than two years ago. He is now downplaying those and other extremist comments as just "thinking out loud on the internet." Lawrence, a cofounder of the confrontational environmentalist group the Sunrise Movement, which has called for a "climate revolution," embraced the far-left positions on redistribution and open borders in an Oct. 22,...

They’re declaring war on Ozempic! In a completely jaw-dropping moment at the recent Democratic Socialists of America-backed Socialism 2026 conference in Chicago, an unhinged radical made the outlandish claim that GLP-1 drugs are “fascist” because they “genocide fat people.” “The political deployment of GLP-1s is fascistic, not because individuals take them, but because the conditions under which they become necessary are shaped by a world fixated on genociding fat people,” proclaimed Atlanta activist Da’Shaun L. Harrison. The extremist claimed the drugs, like Ozempic, Wegovy and Mounjaro — which were developed to treat diabetes are credited with lowering the risk of...

Former Fox News host and one-time Trump booster Tucker Carlson declared Friday that President Donald Trump should be removed from office “immediately” over nuclear policy in the Iran conflict. Carlson made the explosive declaration Friday during a lengthy interview with Joe Kent, the former director of the National Counterterrorism Center, who resigned from the Trump administration in protest of the war with Iran. The episode was ominously titled, “LEAKED: Pentagon Nuclear Plans Prove the US Is Out of Options,” with an entire chapter labeled, “Should Trump Be Impeached?” Carlson said he had been “strongly opposed” to both of Trump’s first-term...

Just one day after calling President Donald Trump a “fat pig,” Jelly Roll doubled down on his remarks. The famous singer stepped in as guest host of Tuesday’s episode of “Jimmy Kimmel Live” and refused to back down amid backlash over comments he made Monday on the very same stage. “Now, let’s be honest for a second.

We have seen protesters on the left around the country mocking the assassination of Charlie Kirk, even reenacting his murder. Hate traffickers like Jennifer Welch have even justified his assassination. It is all shocking and depressing, but none reached the level of Hasan Piker leading a huge crowd in mocking Kirk and his faith. Before he was murdered, Kirk debated Piker and called him a “socialist hypocrite.” What is shocking is not the utter depravity and cruelty of Piker, but the ecstasy of the crowd in relishing the death of someone with opposing views. It is part of the conditioning...

The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) on Friday rejected Florida Democratic US Senate nominee Angie Nixon’s accusation that Republicans were “literally trying to kill us” and her characterization of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) as a “weaponized paramilitary force” designed to terrorize people. Nixon made the comments during an interview on the “QNA: Questions Need Answers” podcast earlier this month, days before she won Florida’s Democratic Senate primary. While explaining why she believed voters should send fighters to Washington, Nixon dismissed the prospect of bipartisan cooperation. “Folks often say, like, ‘Oh, are you going to be able to work across...
