Before we get into this abysmal segment, let’s not forget that this network is doing its job: keeping liberal blood pressures low by feeding the sheep grade-A liberal propaganda. It’s not a shock that MSNBC host Joy Reid and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) would label the rape of a minor by an illegal alien as “fearmongering.” I’m not sure it is, given that it’s true. An illegal alien was busted for raping a 13-year-old in Queens, New York, this week (via ABC 7 NY): A 25-year-old Ecuadorian has been arrested in connection with the "horrific" rape of a 13-year-old girl...

Susheela Jayapal, a former county commissioner, was endorsed by U.S. Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont and several members of the far-left "Squad" House Democrats, including Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New...

Israel says 18 female hostages remain in Gaza, most of whom were taken from a music festival. ...

Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) is taking worldwide criticism after appearing to deflect criticism of rape and sexual violence by Palestinian Hamas terrorists against Israeli women in its October 7 terror attack, saying Israeli misdeeds had to be considered. As Breitbart News has reported, there is ample evidence of sexual violence against Israeli women during the attack, though the Israeli military was not able to conduct forensic tests, and the apparent victims known thus far were killed and cannot testify. […] Jayapal’s attempt to pivot to Israel’s alleged misdeeds took, at face value, Hamas death statistics for Gaza, which do not...

Morally, Dana, morally, but also, strategically, for Israel, the only way through this is to create a situation where there is a political solution that involves a Palestinian state and an Israeli state.”

Representative Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said Sunday on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that the United States was losing moral credibility for not calling out Israel’s military moves in response to the Hamas terror attack. Kristen Welker said, “As The New York Times points out today, Hamas is actually sitting on a lot of that fuel, food and aid that you reference. Their headquarters is underneath that hospital there. So, ultimately, they are the ones who are depriving the civilians of Gaza of all of those necessary aid items that you referenced. If there were to be a cease-fire, what’s the guarantee...

What happened to Biden? He used to be a “reasonable” Senator (reasonable for a racist Democrat, that is), willing to negotiate with the opposition on budgetary issues and the debt ceiling.

Pramila Jayapal, D-Wash., said Wednesday that immigrants are needed in America because they, among other things, "pick the food we eat," "clean our homes," and "rebuild our communities after climate disasters."

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Lead,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) argued that we don’t need more money for border security because there’s already been increased funding for the border and that Republicans are “a big part of the problem” at the border because when they say that the border’s open “they actually are inviting more people to come to the border because they’re claiming it’s open.” After claiming that Republicans don’t want to fix the border problem because former President Trump ended foreign aid programs and made it harder for people to enter the country legally, Jayapal stated, “And...

On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “MTP Daily,” Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) argued that more funding for COVID aid needs to be passed, but she wouldn’t support a deal linking the aid to keeping Title 42 because “it was outrageous” that Title 42 was put in place to begin with. Jayapal said, “[B]oth Ukraine and COVID aid need to be done…keep them linked. Because otherwise, we’re afraid that Republicans will, once again, stop Americans from getting the aid they need for their health care.” And “both of them are urgent. We urgently need to provide this aid to Ukraine and the...
