🚨 JUST IN: VP JD Vance MIC DROPS European bureaucrats and fake news attacking Elon Musk, then BEGGING for him to unleash Starlink for Ukraine "I do find it a little IRONIC that the European countries who have NOTHING like the technology that Elon has developed in Starlink...these countries have almost universally decided to wage regulatory and licensing WAR against SpaceX. And now they're all running to SpaceX saying, 'please do what we need you to do?!'" 🔥🔥🔥 "European countries depend on American technology, American businesses, and the American military, while at the same time European political leaders love to...

The sour, bitter face of our enemy is the face of the chubby girl who always tried to get between you and her hot roommate — except instead of a double-bagger trying to block your shot, she’s now a Democrat trying to condemn you to serfdom. It’s the same face you see worn by malignant amphibians like Elissa Slotkin (D-CIA), a particularly loathsome creature who trumpets her time at the Central Intelligence Agency to establish her phony USA! USA! bona fides. This comes at the same time she supports a Jew-hating communist to be her co-senator who is, at minimum,...

Two weeks ahead of the 2026 November midterm elections, which could change the balance of power in Congress, the Washington, D.C., Board of Elections sent me four strangers’ mail-in ballots. This is not a one-off. It is happening to Americans across the country. Early voting has already begun for the midterms, and millions of unsecured mail-in ballots could have already been sent and submitted. The Daily Signal decided to investigate these four ballots further. By obtaining the D.C. voter registration list, we confirmed the identities of the rightful owners and contacted one of them, a former tenant of my current...

Below, please find the list of links to the 25 investigative articles written by Scott Johnson, Preya Samsundar, and myself from 2016 to 2020. In the July 18, 2019 article linked below, I asserted: “[T]he three years of verified evidence published by Scott Johnson, Preya Samsundar, and myself (…) appear to give probable cause to investigate Omar for eight instances of perjury, immigration fraud, marriage fraud, up to eight years of state and federal tax fraud, two years of federal student loan fraud, and even bigamy. To be clear: The facts describe perhaps the most extensive spree of illegal misconduct...

The American Psychological Association Has Become Worse Than You Ever Imagined If you want a microcosm of what’s happened to America’s institutions under the left’s aegis, listen to Gad Saad discuss what the American Psychological Association (APA)—the major institution of its type in America—once was and what it has now become, all through the prism of the newly elected president. The short video is deeply disturbing when you consider that what you see here is not limited to the APA but affects all American institutions where leftists dominate, which is to say, most of our institutions. Meritocracy is dead; long...

WASHINGTON — Liberal Justice Elena Kagan sharply criticized the Supreme Court’s conservative majority Tuesday, saying it undermined democracy in a series of rulings, including several that have prompted a new wave of legislative map-drawing that has increasingly eliminated competitive districts. Kagan, who has dissented in those cases

Democrat U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico attended an event in Irving, Texas, that was dedicated to speaking with the Muslim community. Talarico held a meet-and-greet with the Muslim Democrat Caucus of Irving, where he met with Richardson Mayor Amir Omar, Councilman Fahad Ahmed of Irving, state Rep. Salman Bhojani, and Nima Bhojani. The event, held at a halal barbecue restaurant, Kafi Barbeque, aligns with Talarico’s record of supporting Islamic ideology and acting on behalf of that community. Amy Mek, founder and editor-in-chief of RAIR Foundation USA, highlighted some of Talarico’s past Islamic advocacy in an X post. She noted that...

The media and other Democrats claim they care deeply about women's rights and privacy, freedom of speech, freedom of choice, and claim they are against discrimination. Their actions and policies show that these stances are just talking points. They have intentionally discriminated against and blocked freedom for years. Democrats support DEI policies which intentionally discriminate based on race and sex. These policies have nothing to do with merit. Democrats have supported colleges as they have intentionally discriminated against who they accept based on race. Anyone who race norms test results to benefit one race over another is intentionally discriminating. Democrats...

Leftism’s flaw is that it cares too much. Leftists are kind, generous people who just don’t understand the practical consequences of their ideas. They feel too deeply and try too hard to prevent inequality as they live in a fantasy world of rainbows and unicorns. Yeah, that’s a bunch of BS. There may be a few such “useful idiots” (as Lenin called them) on the left, but these last few months the masks have been coming off.

Federal agents collared suspects in a slew of voter fraud cases Monday morning, chasing targets across California drawn from a list of more than 20,000 suspected noncitizens in the state who allegedly registered to vote in next month’s midterm election. Under the effort dubbed “Operation Protect the Vote,” law enforcement authorities sought more than two-dozen foreign nationals charged with fraudulently registering to vote in US elections, in which most of them allegedly cast illegal ballots. Homeland Security Investigations swooped on the Commerce home of Alexander Muñoz around 6 a.m. in one of the arrests. The agents pounded on the front...

If you thought the political games around the midterms couldn’t get any more disturbing, buckle up, we’ve got a doozy for you. There’s a new bombshell report from DataRepublican, the researcher who made big waves during the DOGE investigations. And if what she’s uncovering turns out to be true, we’re looking at something a helluva lot scarier than the usual political dirty tricks from our communist enemies on the left. DataRepublican says she’s got her hands on thousands of transcripts and hundreds of recordings that point to an elaborate, coordinated effort to provoke a constitutional crisis right after the 2026...

California funneled nearly $369 million in federal aid intended for victims of its deadliest wildfire year to low-income housing developers — without requiring them to house a single wildfire survivor, a California Post investigation found. The staggering sum was awarded to developers while thousands of Californians struggled to rebuild their lives after the devastating 2018 fires, which killed 103 people and damaged or destroyed more than 24,000 structures. Among them is motivational speaker and comedian, Mickey Schechter, 62, who lost his Cornell home and $60,000 in plumbing tools when the Woolsey Fire tore through the Santa Monica Mountains, destroying 37...

Michigan Sen. Elissa Slotkin publicly called on Democrats to intimidate young conservatives who want to work for the Trump administration by prosecuting the president’s staffers. Slotkin (D-Mich.), a former CIA analyst, contended that Democrats must “go after” and make examples out of officials in President Trump’s orbit who engage in corruption to send a message to young people who may want to join the administration. “I want young people coming out of school to say, ‘Should I go work for the Trump administration? That sounds fun, I might get an opportunity,’” Slotkin mused at a University of Chicago event last...

The Left's Secret Election Playbook: Fast-Track Protest Permits & Repeal Resisting-Arrest Laws Faster protest permits. Assembly areas near polls. A messaging guide that labels opponents “election traitors.” ...repealing local nuisance laws such as loitering, disturbing the peace, and resisting arrest” That recommendation appears in Local Progress Impact Lab’s protest guidance. The progressive network is now directing elected officials to that document as they prepare for the 2026 midterms. The guide, updated in November 2025, also recommends banning tear gas and rubber bullets, limiting police dispersal orders, and promptly processing and releasing people arrested at public assemblies. It urges changes to...

Only two years ago, the idea that some Americans were being “debanked,” or cut off from financial institutions after being deemed politically incorrect, extreme, or dangerous, was often dismissed as a conspiracy or an accident. But federal regulators announced on Wednesday that they had reached a very different conclusion: Debanking really did happen. The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) said that nine of the nation’s largest banks, as measured by assets, had policies in place between 2020 and 2025 that may have influenced their decisions to “deny or limit access to financial services” to customers or potential...

Major banks closed accounts and refused credit to MAGA merchants, pro-life causes, religious groups, conservative organizations and sectors disfavored by the Biden administration, such as firearms, oil and gas, and private prisons, a bombshell report from the federal banking regulator has found. The Debanking Review by the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) investigated 100,000 complaints and scrutinized 50,000 internal bank records to reveal how customers were “debanked” based purely on their political, social, or religious beliefs. JPMorgan Chase, Bank of America, Citibank, Wells Fargo, U.S. Bank, Capital One, PNC, TD Bank, and BMO Bank were found to...

WASHINGTON, D.C. — Following this week's DHS raid on Congresswoman Ilhan Omar's home, Democrats warned President Donald Trump that using law enforcement to target political opponents could set a dangerous precedent. Omar, who is reportedly under investigation for immigration fraud, angrily denounced the "lawfare" targeting her and cautioned that Republicans could one day find themselves on the receiving end of similar raids. "This is an incredibly dangerous escalation. Sending law enforcement into the homes of people in the party currently out of power? Republicans are playing with fire," said House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. "Crossing this line threatens the very...

After the feds raided Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-MN)’s immigration documents in a reportedly years-long fraud investigation into the Somali Congresswoman’s background, even MS Now is admitting the feds likely have evidence. The investigation appears to be focusing on whether she and her father lied on immigration papers filled out when she was a teen, as the statute of limitations on her alleged marriage to her brother has already expired. A former immigration official previously told the New York Post that if Omar’s father lied on citizenship paperwork and she went along with the lie, it “would wipe her out from...

Eric Lewis, the man charged with killing Philadelphia Officer Shane Seiber and wounding his partner in an ambush attack on Saturday, told investigators he opened fire because the officers were white.
