The endorsement of Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vermont, likely assisted far-left Democratic candidate William Lawrence in his Tuesday night primary win in Michigan’s 7th Congressional District. The progressive will now face Republican incumbent Tom Barrett, R-Charlotte, in November’s general election. The activist community organizer from Lansing’s leftist credentials were burnished by campaign appearances last month with fellow progressives Abdul El-Sayed, who was in a tight race for Michigan’s U.S. Senate seat against Rep. Haley Stevens, and New York Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. Lawrence, a member of the Working Families Party and the Democratic Socialists of America, defeated Democratic opponents Matt Maasdam, a...

State Rep. Francesca Hong’s (D) steady rise in the Wisconsin gubernatorial race is teeing up the biggest test yet for democratic socialists and the far left this election cycle. Hong has held a strong lead in the Democratic field ahead of Tuesday’s primary, while establishment Democrats, including Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers, have rallied around Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley. Evers and others have suggested Hong is unlikely to beat the GOP’s presumptive nominee, Rep. Tom Tiffany, in November and that she could even have a negative effect on Democrats running in competitive downballot races. But Hong argues that voters are...

What’s going on with my “boys” and, in some cases, “gals?” They’re all going after Attorney General Pam Bondi, who is doing a FANTASTIC JOB! We’re on one Team, MAGA, and I don’t like what’s happening. We have a PERFECT Administration, THE TALK OF THE WORLD, and “selfish people” are trying to hurt it, all over a guy who never dies, Jeffrey Epstein. For years, it’s Epstein, over and over again. Why are we giving publicity to Files written by Obama, Crooked Hillary, Comey, Brennan, and the Losers and Criminals of the Biden Administration, who conned the World with the...

FACT: Trump has been the MOST vocal enemy of the Neocon policy of "forever wars." He's the one who first dared to say this on the debate stage in 2016, shocking everyone. Remember? But we cannot let the specter of "forever wars" stop us from EVER taking military action, if necessary. And sometimes in history such things are necessary. A brilliantly executed strike on the nuclear facilities of blood-thirsty Islamic lunatics is not the same thing as the utopian idiocy of trying to turn Afghanistan and Iraq into Ohio and Iowa. Trump's track record should give us confidence that he...

President Donald Trump sensationally called for a regime change in Iran as he held crisis talks with UK Prime Minister Keir Starmer on Sunday. The US president took to his Truth Social page to share updates about the country's military attacks on Iran, when he suggested that the current regime 'is unable to MAKE IRAN GREAT AGAIN.' 'Why wouldn't there be a regime change,' Trump asked, rhetorically - even as he and Starmer urged Ayatollah Khameini to 'return to the negotiating table as soon as possible.' They made the urgent request after the US sent a fleet of B-2 bombers...

President Trump in a new post on Truth Social on Sunday night accused Russian President Vladimir Putin of having gone “absolutely” crazy and said if he did not stop what he was doing, it would lead to the downfall of his country. The social media comments came after Trump had issued some of his toughest comments about Putin earlier in remarks to reporters in New Jersey. “I’ve always had a very good relationship with Vladimir Putin of Russia, but something has happened to him. He has gone absolutely CRAZY!,” Trump wrote. “He is needlessly killing a lot of people, and...
