Get your popcorn and grab a seat. The hottest political show of the moment is one Americans haven’t seen for decades: Democrats behaving like Republicans. Suddenly, members of the party with a recent habit of sticking together are engaged in a circular firing squad. The insults, name-calling and nasty exchanges echo the way the GOP has squandered its House majority. The Dem civil war involves even bigger stakes, of course, because it was sparked by President Biden’s debate debacle. It was so bad that lawmakers and donors are growing increasingly bold in publicly demanding that Biden withdraw from the race....

2:23 PM · Jul 1, 2024 · 7.1M Views _________________________ French woman pleads for help: "I am 26 years old, blonde, with light eyes, and I have always lived in the 6th arrondissement of Lyon, which is thought of as the poshest area in Lyon, and my daily life has become unbearable. I write this because, ten years ago, I could go out with my friends in the evening, at any hour, without being bothered, insulted, followed, or stabbed. I mention stabbing because, three years ago, my boyfriend, along with two of his friends, on their way home, were approached...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of “CNN NewsNight,” Sen. Laphonza Butler (D-CA) responded to questions on reporting that President Joe Biden had afternoon naps built in as part of his debate prep by stating that “if the President needs to find schedule accommodations to help to facilitate his focus on advancing our country on behalf of next generations, let’s find those accommodations, but let’s be clear about what’s at stake.” Host Abby Phillip asked, “So, here’s what The New York Times is reporting, Sen., that the President, in meetings, would basically, according to people who’ve been with him, has recently been halting,...

Governments owe an unprecedented $91 trillion, an amount almost equal to the size of the global economy and one that will ultimately exact a heavy toll on their populations. Debt burdens have grown so large — in part because of the cost of the pandemic — that they now pose a growing threat to living standards even in rich economies, including the United States. Yet, in a year of elections around the world, politicians are largely ignoring the problem, unwilling to level with voters about the tax increases and spending cuts needed to tackle the deluge of borrowing. In some...

President Biden may soon face increased pressure from Democrats in Congress to drop out of the 2024 race, according to a report. At least 25 House Democrats are preparing to call for the 81-year-president to end his re-election bid in the wake of his disastrous debate against former President Donald Trump, Reuters reported Tuesday, citing a House Democratic aide. Centrist House Democrats in competitive districts – the lawmakers most at risk of losing their seats in November – were so alarmed by Biden’s infirmed appearance in last week’s showdown with the 78-year-old presumptive Republican nominee that they are considering writing...

Biden’s corrupt Justice Department will continue to pursue the two lawfare cases against Trump past election day if Trump wins. According to a leak to The Washington Post, Special Counsel Jack Smith will continue to file motions and possibly conduct a trial after Election Day if Trump wins in a race against the clock before Inauguration Day. The Justice Department cannot charge a sitting president so they want to ‘get Trump’ before he is sworn in on January 20, 2025. “Justice Department officials plan to pursue the criminal cases against Donald Trump past Election Day even if he wins, under...

Ever since President Joe Biden's disastrous debate performance from last Thursday, there's been a flurry of media reports signaling what we've known all along. Even Democrats who engaged in gaslighting up until this point are coming forward, with POLITICO putting out a headline on Tuesday morning fittingly titled "'We’ve all enabled the situation': Dems turn on Biden’s inner sanctum post debate." Such a report specifically challenges the idea that Biden is a nice old man, especially with what a "senior administration official" has to say. As a telling part of the report mentions [Emphasis added]: But inside the White House,...

I know he left Fox News amid controversy. Still, what Bill O’Reilly told Glenn Beck does dovetail with other reports about the Biden family and close advisers discussing 2024 with the president in the aftermath of a brutal debate performance against Donald Trump. The former president drove over Biden with a tank in what was probably the easiest debate for Trump in his short, meteoric political career. The Camp David gathering ended with Joe being urged by his arguably psychopathic family to remain in the race: Jill wants to cling to power like Lady Macbeth. At the same time, Hunter...

Obama shares concerns after shaky debate, offers Biden his advice. The former president told allies that Biden’s already-tough path to reelection grew more challenging after his debate performance on Thursday

A 74-year-old San Francisco woman has died after she was pushed in front of a BART train by a homeless man at a subway station. Corazon Dandan, a San Mateo County resident, was shoved in front of a moving Millbrae-bound train at Powell Street station at around 11.06pm yesterday. BART police officers have identified and taken Trevor Belmont, 49, a homeless man also known as Hoak Taing into custody for the incident.

Vice President Harris is running closer to former President Trump than President Biden is, according to a new poll. The CNN poll released Tuesday found that 45 percent of registered voters would support Harris in a hypothetical match-up with Trump. She is 2 percentage points behind the former president, who received 47 percent support in a head-to-head contest with Harris. Five percent of respondents said they would choose someone else. On the other hand, Biden trailed Trump by 6 points in the poll. Trump is leading with 49 percent support in a match-up with the president, while Biden received 43...

Ahead of former vice-president Joe Biden’s expected 2020 presidential bid, women are speaking out about their personal interactions with him — alleging he physically touched them in ways that made them feel uncomfortable. Last week, the Cut published an essay by Lucy Flores, a former Nevada lieutenant governor nominee, who wrote that Biden smelled her hair and kissed the back of her head at a campaign event in 2014. In the week since, several more women have come forward. Below, here’s a running list of the allegations against Biden. Lucy Flores On March 29, in the aforementioned essay published on...

As the desperate search for a Biden replacement continues amongst Dem insiders and anxious liberals, one possible replacement shines through the dark. In a recent Reuters/Ispos poll which surveyed 1,070 U.S. adults across the country, found that in a match-up between former first lady Michelle Obama and President Trump, Obama would win in a 50-39 margin against the former president. Obama, who has previously said she will not run for president, beat out all other Biden alternatives offered in the poll

President Joe Biden has blamed his poor debate performance last week on jet lag, telling reporters that he "wasn't very smart" for "travelling around the world a couple of times" before the debate. "I didn’t listen to my staff... and then I nearly fell asleep on stage,” he said. Mr Biden, 81, last returned from travel on 15 June, nearly two weeks ahead of the 27 June debate. Mr Biden's remarks come amid intra-party panic ahead of November's election over his mental fitness,

Hunter Biden, 54, the president’s son, who was recently convicted of three gun-related felonies, is reportedly sitting in on meetings with his father in the West Wing, as the Biden family tries to manage the fallout of last week’s debate. The New York Post reported Tuesday: First son Hunter Biden has been joining West Wing meetings with his father since President Biden returned to the White House on Monday — as the oldest-ever sitting president resists calls from fellow Democrats to step aside, The Post has confirmed.

The Biden administration is telling emergency room doctors they must perform emergency abortions when necessary to save a pregnant woman’s health. That's following last week's 6-3 Supreme Court ruling that failed to settle a legal dispute over whether state abortion bans override the federal law that requires hospitals to stabilize patients. The Health and Human Services agency

Some White House staffers have been forced to tiptoe around President Biden when briefing him on certain topics because they want to avoid eliciting his wrath and are “scared s–tless” of him, a new report says. “It’s like, ‘You can’t include that, that will set him off,’ or ‘Put that in, he likes that,’”a senior administration official told Politico, referring to how some of the 81-year-old president’s aides feel they have to walk through a minefield before briefings to avoid him getting angry with them.“It’s a Rorschach test, not a briefing,” the source said. “Because he is not a pleasant...

Police departments across the country are getting desperate to hire due to chronic understaffing and elevated burnout. Earlier this month, the Seattle Police Department became the latest major law enforcement agency to open recruiting to illegal aliens, and if hired, these new cops will end up having more gun rights than everyday Americans. Under this new hiring policy, illegal aliens protected from deportation under the Obama-era DACA program will be eligible to apply. Of course, should these aspiring officers pass the training academy, they will be sworn to uphold the Constitution and laws of the United States and empowered with...

SNIP I was in a room filled with mostly Democratic voters at BusBoys & Poets, a well-known restaurant and progressive hub in the heart of Washington D.C., where I was preparing to give my post-debate analysis. Going into the evening, I admittedly had had relatively low expectations; we have all seen former President Trump and President Biden on a debate stage before, and it was not pretty. I was under no illusion that this bout would be any better. Even though my expectations were low, the performance by both men failed to clear the lowest bar. Former President Trump lied...
