The percentage of Americans who believe the Democratic Party is “out of touch” has increased by double-digits over the last decade, with 70% indicating the party is disconnected from the issues that matter to voters. The Democratic Party is perceived as being overly-focused on “Protecting the rights of undocumented immigrants” and “Protecting the rights of LGBTQ+ Americans” – alienating voters who care more about secure borders and crime reduction, a survey released Monday by Welcome, a center-left group, found. “To win elections, Democrats need to make the following changes. First, we need to focus more on the issues voters do...

On September 23rd, 2025, I published a video on YouTube titled ‘The Man Who Murdered Charlie Kirk’ reviewing all of the available public information regarding Tyler Robinson, his assassin, and Lance Twiggs - Tyler’s roommate and romantic partner.

DALLAS — Oak Lawn United Methodist Church in Dallas says it's painting the steps of the church in rainbow colors following Texas Gov. Greg Abbott's order targeting rainbow crosswalks. The church, located at the corner of Oak Lawn Avenue and Cedar Springs Road, says the action is "not one of defiance, but of faith." The painting of the church steps comes after Abbott issued an order earlier this month to the Texas Department of Transportation (TxDOT) that instructs state and local agencies to remove any “decorative crosswalks or markings conveying artwork or other messages” that are not part of standard...

Controversial UPenn transgender swimmer Lia Thomas is unrepentant that he took several college swimming records away from female competitors. Thomas says that he would not do anything differently despite having his college erase his women’s swimming records, and even in the face of the school’s apologies to his female opponents for allowing him to compete on the women’s swim team. Thomas said he tries to avoid thinking negatively about swimming after he went from the height of being a record-breaking success in women’s sports, to being erased from his school’s records in an interview with Pennsylvania Public Radio station WHYY.

Actor Robert De Niro surprised MSNBC’s "The Weekend" panel after dropping an f-bomb during Sunday’s show while describing Democratic pushback against President Donald Trump. De Niro appeared on the show to discuss the recent "No Kings" protests that took place nationwide on Saturday and the Democratic Party’s messaging strategy. The "Taxi Driver" actor largely complimented members of the party, including recently indicted New York Attorney General Letitia James, for standing against Trump. "There’s something," De Niro said. "I like Hakeem Jeffries. I like…Chuck Schumer, Adam Schiff, they’re all great, strong. I like what Letitia James is doing. She’s fighting back....

The “No Kings” protests have returned, and with that the Democrat geriatrics have as well, but this time with furries alongside in the trenches! The organized events across the United States are a protest of President Trump, whom leftist activists believe is acting like a king. I attended the Washington, DC, event and captured some photos of what appears to be a strange new alliance between the boomers and the furries: (Picture on link, try not to laugh)

Protestors showed up at the “No Kings” rally in cities across the nation with signs claiming that President Donald Trump acts like a king. In some locations, protesters carried signs reading "Kings Get Guillotines."

VIDEOThe "No Kings" protest yielded multiple examples of it being an enormous Clownshow starting with its basic concept. If we really had a king then how were they able to conduct multiple protests nationwide? Also none of them seem to remember the reign of King Joe the Somnolent when it was decreed that NONE shall oppose him in the primary elections plus how his designated successor, Border Czar Kamala, was chosen, with no opposition, by unanimous acclaim by the DNC regency.As you can see, many of the No Kings shmoes don't even know why they oppose Trump. They just know...

Founded in 2016 by Leah Greenberg and Ezra Levin, Indivisible began as a viral Google Doc that promised to teach progressives how to resist Donald Trump. Within weeks, the founders had transformed it into a professionalized operation flush with cash from the same sources that have quietly shaped left-wing activism...

Veteran Democratic Party strategist James Carville blasted some liberals for still failing to evolve past certain far-left policies he has blamed repeatedly for sinking the party in the past. Discussing the issue on Thursday’s “Politics War Room” podcast, Carville said those on the left who promote trans inclusion in women’s sports are trying to score a “cheap political point with a bunch of left-wing zombies.” He added that they’re “ruining the women that work their a–es off, that compete.” Betty Yee, former state controller and Democratic candidate for the governorship of California, argued on “Piers Morgan Uncensored” that there should...
