A new poll conducted by Leger360 between August 29 and 31, 2025, is causing controversy in the world of U.S. politics, as it projects that California Gov. Gavin Newsom, a Democrat, is the frontrunner for the 2028 presidential election. The results of the survey, which were shared on social media, pitted Newsom against potential GOP candidates, including Vice President JD Vance, former President Donald Trump, and Secretary of State Marco Rubio. The California governor narrowly leads the president by a score of 48 percent to 44 percent, 47 percent to Vance’s 46 percent, and 49 percent to Rubio’s 44 percent....

Deranged transgender Minnesota shooter Robin Westman had recently dumped his longtime girlfriend, raging about her “blue hair and pronouns” — and complaining about not being able to murder her because it “would really f–k up” his plans to massacre kids. The 23-year-old maniac, who slaughtered two children and injured 18 other people at a Minneapolis Catholic school, had only recently called it quits with his partner of several years before last week’s bloodshed, his dad previously revealed. The ex has been identified by the Daily Mail as 22-year-old Abigail Bodick, who the outlet called a “furry.” Bodick was previously pictured...

"Fr. Altier expresses deep sorrow for the recent tragedy in the Twin Cities, where two children were killed and others were wounded. He attributes the violence to the perpetrator’s mental illness, influenced by demonic forces, and criticizes societal acceptance of transgender identities, arguing that it leads to psychological harm and violence. He also blames the media for covering up the connection between transgender individuals and mass shootings. The issue of gender identity must be approached with compassion and understanding, while also upholding the truth of God’s creation of male and female. The current societal acceptance of multiple genders is a...

To call last week’s mass shooting at Annunciation Catholic School in Minneapolis, Minnesota, a “tragedy” would ignore the culpability of the shooter, Robert Westman—a man who identified as “Robin,” a woman. Victor Davis Hanson explains why this was not simply a tragedy, but an act of evil, and why the media and political leaders refuse to have an honest discussion about the factors behind it on today’s episode of “Victor Davis Hanson: In His Own Words.” “They won't have any discussion over transgenderism. This falls in the broader category of exempt DEI woke topics, but I think we should talk...

How does Ilhan Omar make her money? How does the Trump family make its money? Is money real? What is reality? These are the questions Cockburn is asking himself after this weekend’s financial news. First, let’s fly over Minnesota. Founding “Squad” member Omar, the Washington Free Beacon reported yesterday, is currently worth more than $30 million, despite telling the press earlier this year that it’s “categorically false” that she’s a millionaire. If by false, you mean “true,” then yes. The Free Beacon obtained Omar’s latest financial disclosure, which indicated that she and her husband, shifty “former political consultant” Tim Mynett,...

Governor Walz over the weekend discussing the possibility of Trumps death and implying “There will be news.”

Gov. Tim Walz on Tuesday said he will call a special session for Minnesota lawmakers to vote on a package of gun control measures, although passage seems unlikely in a closely divided Legislature. Walz, after welcoming Deerwood Elementary School students to their first day of school in Eagan, said Minnesota needs to take action following a mass shooting at Annunciation Church in Minneapolis that killed 8-year-old Fletcher Merkel and 10-year-old Harper Moyski and wounded 21 others last week. “If Minnesota lets this moment slide and we determine that it’s okay for little ones to not be safe in a school...

Minnesota Democrat Rep. Ilhan Omar told the press months ago, that it was right wing misinformation to classify her as a millionaire. Then people started looking into her financials and she is right, she is not a millionaire. She is a multi-millionaire. Omar, who makes a salary of less than $200,000 per year, is suddenly, somehow, worth upwards of $30 million. How can this be? Also, isn’t Omar part of the ‘down with the rich’ crowd that embraces the politics of Bernie Sanders? The Washington Free Beacon broke the story: Ilhan Omar Said It’s ‘Categorically False’ To Call Her a...

When the shield protecting a city’s children begins to crack, the first signs appear not in statistics or policy papers, but in stained glass windows shattered by gunfire. The fortress we build around our most vulnerable—our children at prayer, our elderly in worship—depends entirely on those sworn to hold the line. But what happens when that line has already broken? This isn’t fiction or dystopian fantasy. This week in Minneapolis, a gunman opened fire on children attending their first Mass of the school year at Annunciation Catholic School. Two young souls, ages 8 and 10, never made it home. Seventeen...

BREAKING - A rattled Rosie O’Donnell has just released an apology video to MAGA for her earlier video in which she blamed the Minnesota Catholic school tragedy on MAGA, falsely claiming the suspect was a White supremacist MAGA voter.

“We have to destroy the idea of America in our heads, in our neighbors’ heads, in our comrades’ heads, in everybody’s heads in this country.” The People’s Conference for Palestine, held in Troy, Michigan, this past weekend, was billed as a grassroots gathering of Palestinian activists and their allies. But behind the carefully packaged language of “liberation,” the rhetoric captured in multiple clips from the conference reveals an alarming mix of anti-Americanism and anti-Semitism—messaging that seeks to delegitimize the United States itself while demonizing Israel and its supporters. The clips, shared by Twitter/X user @thestustustudio (Stu Smith), expose the raw...

Rep. Rashida Tlaib, the most radical member of the far-left squad, once again put her hatred for America and Israel on full display this weekend. Speaking at the People’s Conference for Palestine, a gathering packed with open Hamas sympathizers. Tlaib delivered a speech dripping with defiance, rage, and vulgarity.

Much of the 'Squad' member's wealth comes through her husband's winery and venture capital firm Rep. Ilhan Omar’s personal fortune exploded to upwards of $30 million in 2024, the Minnesota Democrat disclosed just months after telling the press it is "ridiculous" and "categorically false" to say she is worth millions of dollars.Omar reported in her latest financial disclosure that she and her husband, former political consultant Tim Mynett, accumulated a net worth at the end of 2024 ranging from at least $6 million to $30 million. Their wealth is derived almost entirely from the value of Mynett’s ownership stake in...

Do you spend too much time in your car? Your local state authorities think you do — and they’re quietly pushing through laws that will give them the power to do something about it. Meet Massachusetts Senate Bill S.2246. Introduced by state Senate Majority Leader Cynthia Creem, it sets the stage for a future where the government tracks and potentially limits how many miles you drive each year. This isn’t a fringe proposal — it’s working its way through the legislature right now, and similar ideas are being tested in other states across the country. Is this really about emissions...

The “trans woman” shooter who murdered two school kids and wounded 17 others at a Catholic Mass in Minnesota confessed in his journal that he “was tired of being trans.” The revelation that Robin Westman, given name Robert, was a crazed maniac who severely needed psychiatric help shows up in the journal, the New York Post revealed today. He posted it to YouTube before he began firing into Annunciation Catholic Church in Minneapolis. The journal also reveals that he fantasized about murdering school children. The SchootingWestman fired into the church through stained glass windows at about 8:30 a.m. He murdered...

Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) accused White House official Sebastian Gorka on Sunday of wanting “to deflect from the reality” of the Minneapolis Catholic school shooting by pointing out gunman Robin Westman’s transgender identity. Gorka, who serves as President Trump’s deputy assistant and senior director for counterterrorism, argued on CNN’s “State of the Union” that Westman had a clear “ideological” motive for targeting the Annunciation Catholic School earlier this week — where two students were killed and more than a dozen other children and adults were injured while they prayed at Mass. “That’s what terrorism is,” Gorka said of the mass...

This is truly ghoulish: Minnesota Democrats are fundraising off Robin Westman’s murderous spree: Note the suggestion that “Minnesota Republicans…may refuse to take action, even now.” As though it were self-evident that Westman’s murders require banning a particular type of firearm, one of several, I believe, that he used. Governor Tim Walz has said that he is considering calling a special session to enact more gun control legislation, including an “assault rifle” ban. Minnesota Democrats want to turn the 2026 election into a referendum on gun control, as they turned the 2022 election into a referendum on abortion. They thus seek...

The mother of transgender Minneapolis mass shooter Robin Westman once appeared in a movie made by her daughter — who she gave up for adoption as a child, a report revealed. Mary Grace Westman, 67, starred in the short film “Mary Meets Grace,” written and directed by her biological daughter, Faryl Amadeus, 44, who was adopted as a child from Kentucky, the Daily Mail reported. Faryl Amadeus, 44, is the filmmaker daughter of Mary Grace Westman, the mother of transgender mass shooter Robin Westman.In 2005, Amadeus traveled to Minnesota to meet her ‘five half-siblings,’ which would include a then 3-year-old...
