Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said Wednesday that his time as an elected official will permanently end when he finishes his term as governor. “I will never run for an elected office again. Never again,” Walz, the 2024 Democratic vice presidential nominee, said in an interview with MS NOW. Walz had said this month that he would not seek re-election as governor — sending shock waves through state and national politics — but he did not go so far as to say he would not consider another elected position down the line. In explaining his decision Wednesday, Walz talked about the...

URGENT UPDATE: I’ve never experienced anything quite like today in my life. I’ve interacted with the Cartel and have witnessed some crazy things in the desert in ‘24. But what strikes me is how organized these agitators in Minneapolis are. They have spotters everywhere in the city and suburbs, on street corners, even 30 minutes away from downtown. They have people at hotels that work with them and signal to them which made it making it difficult for us to lose our tail once my cover was blown. Usually I lose a tail. Not this time. We switched locations THREE...

Leftist cat lady fills up 2 carts at Target and doesn’t buy anything to “protest Trump” … so she’s just harassing minimum wage employees to make herself feel validated. These people need mental institutions.

A volunteer radio show host has resigned after authorities confirmed they are aware of a post on left-wing-dominated social media app Bluesky, in which a person advocated for killing Vice President JD Vance.

Every woe-laden left winger from Minneapolis to the Florida Everglades is now aware of the sad death of Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year-old mother who thought it seemed like a good idea to aim her multi-ton vehicle at an ICE officer. Her mother, Donna Ganger, told the Minneapolis Tribune that she was a good person who had been taking care of people all her life. Nicole graduated in 2020 from Old Dominion University in Virginia with a literary degree. At that time, she was married to her former husband, Tim Macklin. GoFundMe has raised over a million dollars for the...

Fari-right political commentator Nick Fuentes has stated that he isn’t gay in response to a question put to him by Piers Morgan. The far-right commentator, 27, has made a name for himself thanks to his extreme views and antisemitic and homophobic remarks. Joining Morgan on Piers Morgan Uncensored on Monday (8 December) Fuentes was asked about theories that he wasn’t attracted to women. “I am attracted to women,” the young commentator said before confirming he isn’t gay. He then added: “But I will say women are very difficult to be around. So, there’s that.”

'I want to pay tribute to Alaa's family and to all those that have worked and campaigned for this moment,' Starmer said.

Republican Georgia Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene appears to be embracing a feminist left-wing activist group with alleged ties to the Chinese Communist Party in the final weeks of her House term.Greene on Wednesday met with members of Code Pink, whose co-founder Medea Benjamin praised the outgoing congresswoman as a “strong anti war voice” in Congress. Benjamin’s group took credit for crashing a D.C. dinner in September where protestors got within feet of President Donald Trump and shouted he “is the Hitler of our time.”“I’m America First and fully against funding foreign wars and support peace because that’s good for everyone...

As 2025 dawned a 40-year-old Norwegian man called Jørgen set out his hopes for the coming year. In particular, he spoke about his dismay at the increasing polarization, and the 'rise of autocratic political tendencies' around the world. 'More concerning was the erosion of freedom of expression even in democratic nations,' he complained. 'In the United States, President Donald Trump launched more than 100 verbal attacks on the media during his election campaign.' Such sentiments might be expected from a liberal speaking in Scandinavia but the man's words will reverberate at the White House. They were spoken by Jørgen Watne...

Many of us who work in politics have felt sickened since the assassination of Charlie Kirk. We sense that a line has been crossed, perhaps permanently. For years, the Left had accused conservative intellectuals of fomenting “stochastic terrorism”—incendiary rhetoric that inspires violence. This accusation was used to purge conservatives from social media, and, during the Biden administration, contributed to the F.B.I.’s decision to monitor conservatives, including parents who opposed critical race theory. The Left sought to use the stochastic terrorism construction as an all-purpose censorship tool. This year, the tables have turned. Donald Trump is in power and left-wing violence...

An official working in President Donald Trump’s administration was physically assaulted by a “deranged leftist” during a United Nations (U.N.) gathering on Thursday, according to sources. The official — who works in international relations for the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) — was acting in a support role for HHS Secretary Robert F. Kennedy during the General Assembly when the assault occurred, according to Fox News Digital. “An HHS official was followed into a bathroom, recorded, physically assaulted and verbally accosted by a deranged leftist at the U.N. who somehow entered the venue past multiple layers of security,”...

An anti-ICE protester in Massachusetts forgot to put her car in park while yelling at agents making an arrest of an illegal alien and her car rolled into a lake and sunk, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) source tells Fox News. It happened in Upton, Massachusetts – a small town in Worcester County, roughly 40 miles west of Boston. Video and a photo, provided to Fox News by an ICE source, captured the incident.

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. In her post, McMath wrote: “Racist dog whistles abound on Jacksonville’s City Council. It was on full display last night (September 9) as the grand wizard who calls himself Rory Diamond attempted to attack every group of people — his constituents — that do not look like him. His MAGA maneuvers are gross and dangerous. Gratitude for the Council people who stood up against this foolishness and walked out… Jim Crow 2.0 in Jax ain’t no lie.”

EXCLUSIVE: In the wake of Charlie Kirk's Sept. 10 assassination allegedly at the hands of a left-wing ideologue, a leftist gun club with ties to political violence posted recruiting flyers at Georgetown University with references to Kirk's death. "Hey fascist! Catch!" says a red flyer from the John Brown Gun Club posted on Georgetown's campus. The phrase is a nod to the same slogan which was allegedly written on a shell casing by Tyler Robinson, who stands accused of murdering Kirk at a Turning Point USA event at Utah Valley University. "The only political group that celebrates when Nazis die,"...

Last December, Jesse Singal wrote a post for the Free Press titled "Bluesky Has a Death Threat Problem." It was basically Singal's story about what happened when he joined Bluesky.On December 6, I made my first post on Bluesky—which was actually launched by Twitter in 2019, before becoming an independent company two years later. As I soon found out, it is an exceptionally angry place. And in part because of a widespread culture of impunity when it comes to violent threats among some of its users, it comes across as a potentially dangerous one—in a way X, or Twitter, never...

It never ceases to amaze me how, once the left settles on its preferred narrative, it cannot let it go. To this day, there are people on the left who cling to the debunked conspiracy theory that Trump colluded with Russia to steal the 2016 presidential election. The latest fake news that the left seems unwilling to let go of is the fact that Charlie Kirk’s killer, Tyler Robinson, is a radicalized leftist. I am still seeing social media posts from leftists — random accounts and highly-followed accounts — claiming that Robinson was MAGA or a groyper, just because his...

NAPLES, N.Y. — A Naples Central School District employee has been put on leave over their posts about the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, the district says. The close ally of President Donald Trump was shot and killed on Wednesday at a Utah Valley University event, leading to local, state, and federal officials condemning political violence. Naples superintendent Kevin Swartz said the district became aware of multiple posts from a staff member’s personal social media account that referenced the assassination and outraged community members. “We have heard from many community members regarding concerns and outrage related to these posts,”...

We are suffering through an epidemic of leftist violence. *** It’s a sad irony that Kirk’s shockingly public murder happened the day before the trial begins of Ryan Routh, one of the alleged assassins who tried to rub out Trump during the 2024 campaign.*** “Assassination culture is spreading on the left,” [Kirk] tweeted two months ago. “Forty-eight percent of liberals say it would be at least somewhat justified to murder Elon Musk. Fifty-five percent said the same about Donald Trump. Setting the scene were the deadly BLM-Antifa riots that engulfed the country in the summer of 2020, which were tacitly...

Robert “Robin” Westman, a man who identified as a woman, attacked Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis today, killing two and wounding 17 others. The two fatalities were children with 14 of the 17 wounded also being school kids. Three adults were also injured. Westman penned an alleged manifesto and posted a video before the attack. His mother reportedly used to work at the school before retiring in 2021. Some of the writings were written in Cyrillic, but New York Post reporter Diane Nerozzi translated some of the pages (via NY Post): Transgender Minneapolis shooter Robin Westman spoke of murdering “filthy...
