Whether they admit it or not, most Democrat leaders are Marxists, and they justify their resistance to Trump’s reforms on the basis of Marxist ideas. ... In theory, Marxism seizes wealth from the rich and transfers it to workers. In reality, in every case where Marxism has actually been tried, wealth and the means to produce it are controlled by the State, not the workers. ... Democrats resist Trump’s reforms because he aims to expose the lie of Marxism: the fraudulent idea that Democrat programs for the poor have done the poor any good. Instead, they have enriched Democrat leaders...

Pioneer Press. San Francisco businessman Clinton Reilly had filed a lawsuit aimed at halting the deal in which Sacramento-based McClatchy Co. would sell the papers to Denver-based MediaNews.

Tel Aviv — The war is back in Gaza. Since abandoning a ceasefire on March 17, the Israel Defense Forces have pounded the Palestinian territory with waves of deadly strikes it says are targeting Hamas terrorists. Those strikes have brought the overall death toll in Gaza to well over 50,000 since the beginning of the war, according to the enclave's Hamas-run Health Ministry. CBS News spoke recently with an Israeli soldier who has questioned the military's tactics. Tommy — not his real name, as he agreed to speak with CBS News on the condition of anonymity — fought in Gaza...

Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison, the former congressman from Minnesota who gave us examples of how to treat women, has tweeted that the "Bernie Bros," that rabid group of Bernie Sanders–supporters that seem like a branch of Antifa, has tweeted that, no, they are merely passionate and as gentle as he: "I have never seen @BernieSanders supporters being unusually mean or rude," Ellison tweeted. "Can someone send me an example of a 'Bernie Bro' being bad. Also, are we holding all candidates responsible for the behavior of some of their supporters? Waiting to hear." Like most Democrats, progressives, and liberals,...

Germany hasn’t seen significant economic growth in five years. It’s a stunning turnaround for Europe’s biggest economy, which for much of this century had expanded exports and dominated world trade in engineered products like industrial machinery and luxury cars.

The arrest comes after Texas authorities contacted ISP about 28 year old Daniel Cherry, who has now been charged with intimidation. US Atty Ed Martin is also investigating “protestors” in DC calling for Elon and Trump to be “Luigi’d,” begging for someone to ass*ssinate them like Luigi Mangione did to the United Healthcare CEO.

Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., a lifelong, true, loyal leftist, suddenly became popular among conservatives because he was one of the few leftists to speak out against COVID vaccines. This wasn’t any particular wisdom on his part; he’s always opposed all vaccines. However, because of this stance, when RFK Jr threw his hat in the Democrat primary ring against Biden, some conservatives got excited. This man, they thought, would siphon votes away from Biden, handing Republicans a win. But that’s not what will happen—and RFK knows it. In other words, he’s another weapon against Republicans. I’ve never trusted RFK, despite his...

Chairman of the Lenawee County Democratic Party, Bill Swift, called for the hanging of supporters of President Donald Trump while labeling immigration officials as “Nazi collaborators” in a Facebook post. Despite his deleted post following the backlash, he doubled down on his statements during a call-in appearance on Talk Back Radio with Doug Spade and Mike Clement.

One week later, a 21-year-old Washington woman was charged over the deadly incident, but little has been reported about her and her deceased accomplice, a German...
