  • James Talarico's chances against Cornyn vs. Paxton in Texas—New poll

    Newsweek via MSN ^ | May 18, 2026 | Andrew Stanton
    Democrat James Talarico is in striking distance of flipping Texas, according to a new poll of the Lone Star State’s 2026 Senate race released ahead of the Republican runoff between Senator John Cornyn and Attorney General Ken Paxton. Democrats believe a favorable national environment, a weakened GOP nominee and reversion among Hispanic and Latino voters that shifted rightward in 2024 could create a perfect storm for them to flip Texas in the midterm elections. Texas has been a site of Democratic ambitions for several election cycles, but Republicans have held onto their iron grip of the state. However, the new...

  • HUGE: Acting AG Todd Blanche Drops NUCLEAR Truth Bomb – “There’s a Ton of Evidence That the 2020 Election Was RIGGED” – CONFIRMS Multiple Criminal Investigations Underway

    The Gateway Pundit ^ | May 17, 2026 | Jim Hᴏft
    Finally, after years of gaslighting, lawfare, and corrupt media cover-ups, a top Trump DOJ official has stepped up and dropped the hammer on the biggest political crime in American history. Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche joined Maria Bartiromo on Sunday Morning Futures and delivered a NUCLEAR truth bomb that Democrats, the fake news media, and the deep state have been desperately trying to bury for six long years. When Bartiromo pressed him on President Trump’s repeated claims that the 2020 election was rigged, Blanche didn’t mince words. Blanche confirmed that the DOJ is now running multiple criminal investigations into the...
  • Mother Jones, Ro Khanna, and Code Pink? Stephen Miller Blasts Thomas Massie's Bizarre Left-Wing Love-In

    05/17/2026 7:29:28 PM PDT · by Republican Wildcat · 23 replies
    Stephen Miller, Deputy Chief of Staff for Policy and Homeland Security Advisor for President Trump, is very confused about some of Thomas Massie's latest endorsements. First there was the endorsement from radical Democrat Ro Khanna. "Khanna is among the most radically liberal anti-MAGA extremists to be found in all of Congress. This is the equivalent of being endorsed by Rachel Maddow." "Mother Jones also endorsing Massie. This is like being endorsed by Pravda." "Don’t forget CodePink!"

  • Rubio Locks In Lead for '28

    05/16/2026 7:02:34 AM PDT · by DIRTYSECRET · 64 replies
    Rubio is like the baseball team that scraps for every run and creates openings while Vance seems to be waiting for President Trump to hit a three-run homer to bring him in. Rubio is clearly leading Trump among Latinos, winning converts for him in a way Vance is failing to do. He has used his position as secretary of state to polish his image. Rubio has a charisma edge while Vance seems to be a stolid follower in Trump's wake.
  • Just a Reminder About Bill Cassidy (R-LA)

    The Senate impeachment trial vote was on February 13th 2021. Senator Bill Cassidy voted to convict (i.e. remove from office) a man who was ALREADY out of office. Because the purpose of that vote was to prevent Donald Trump from ever holding office again. So that all the policies that have been put into place, would never have been put into place. Can't wait to see this anti-conservative "Republican" senator be defeated!

    Colorado's Dem Governor Polis commutes ex-election clerk Tina Peters' sentence after Trump pressure Peters issued a statement through her attorney thanking Polis and apologizing. “Five years ago I misled the Secretary of State when allowing a person to gain access to county voting equipment. That was wrong,” Peters said. “I have learned and grown during my time in prison and going forward I will make sure that my actions always follow the law, and I will avoid the mistakes of the past.”
  • Last Republican US Senator to Lose a Primary: Richard Lugar, 2012

    After Mike Lee defeated Bob Bennett in Utah in 2010 and then Richard Lugar was defeated in 2012, Mitch McConnell was pissed. He thereafter ensured that EVERY Republican incumbent, no matter how awful, was to be protected from removal by fellow Republican. McConnell and the NRSC would choose which Republicans sat in the Senate, not the infernal people. Republican senators could either leave the Senate on their own, or be defeated by a Democrat. Those were the ONLY two options. For fourteen years, in cycle after cycle, not a single Republican incumbent has been defeated in a primary. This month...

    Colorado Gov. Jared Polis on Friday cut former Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters’ nine-year prison sentence in half, and ordered the 70-year-old, who has become a national martyr for election conspiracy theorists, to be released on parole June 1. Peters’ sentence for orchestrating a security breach of her county’s election system in 2021 in a failed attempt to uncover voter fraud is now four years and four and a half months under a clemency order issued by the governor. “She, because of her incorrect and unpopular speech, got an unduly harsh sentence,” Polis said Friday in an interview with The...

    WASHINGTON, D.C. — Congressman Steve Cohen, who has represented Tennessee’s 9th Congressional District for more than 19 years, announced he is withdrawing from the race Friday morning. Cohen says his majority-Black district was gerrymandered into three Republican-leaning districts by the state General Assembly last week. The deadline to file to run in the redrawn District 9, as well as Districts 5 and 8 in the Memphis area, is noon Friday.
  • Outrage: Another sleazy attack on L.A. mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt over his living arrangements after his home burned down

    Does Spencer Pratt, the conservative Los Angeles mayoral candidate whose home burned up in the Palisades fire, ever get a break over his housing arrangements? They're still picking on him over his desperate post-fire living arrangements, this time with TMZ attacking Pratt's decision to put his family in a nice hotel for a few days. Hypocrite, you see, he's supposed to be living in a silverstream trailer on the rubble of his burned home as if an arrangement like that would even be safe for a family with two small children. First, the Los Angeles Times went after him for...

    New poll indicates around half of right-wing voters see losing elections as 'upsetting but manageable,' while only negligible percentage of left-wing voters will respect results not in their favor. Ahead of the expected elections in about six months, data from the "Israeli Society Index" for May 2026 reveals deep ideological gaps regarding the rules of the democratic game. The index examined how Israelis would respond if the political side they support loses the elections, and the results point to a severe crisis of trust, especially on the left side of the political map. The data shows that as voters move...

    Washington Post ^ | May 13, 2026 | Gerry Shih and Lior Soroka
    Naftali Bennett, a former Netanyahu aide who is seeking to replace him as prime minister for a second time, is offering voters a straightforward promise: a “rebuild.” Israel’s main anti-Netanyahu alliance, led by Bennett and Yair Lapid…offered a conservative, hawkish vision that carries echoes of Netanyahu — but none of his baggage. Their pitch will be tested in a momentous election this year that will reveal whether voters want younger faces to lead Israel through a period of growing domestic division and international isolation… Lapid’s centrist supporters say they do not agree on all issues with Bennett…But he is someone...

    He's quite the jerk when he thinks he's off camera. When's a reporter not a reporter, just a public relations adjunct of an incompetent, scandal-ridden, Democrat? When Xavier Becerra, Democrat frontrunner in the California gubernatorial race by default after Eric Swalwell's embarrassing exit, is around. Get a load of this disgusting exchange, attempting to intimidate a KTLA reporter into producing a puff piece about him: [X video at article link] He's trying to come off as a mafia boss, which isn't inconsistent with what insiders have said about him, yet he's also quite the smug, self-satisfied, twerpy little jerk, trying...
