Zohran Mamdani, the Democratic Socialist (communist) mayor-elect of New York City, is already walking back his completely insane plan to replace police with social workers in response to certain crimes. It was never a realistic idea to begin with. It was an effort on his part to appeal to the ‘defund the police’ wing of the Democrat party, of which Mamdani is himself a member. The truth is that police never really know what kind of dangerous situation they might be walking into, even on the most routine calls. The New York Post reports: Zohran Mamdani now says NYPD should...

Howard Zinn’s infamous “A People’s History of the United States” is the great proto-text of today’s neo-antisemitism.With the exception of Noam Chomsky, perhaps no intellectual has been more influential on today’s American neo-communists and radical progressives than Howard Zinn. The far-left academic, who died in 2010, literally wrote the book on the left’s revisionist history of the United States. With his A People’s History of the United States, a bestseller thanks to generations of academics forcing their students to buy it, Zinn outlined a comprehensive vision of this history—likely drawn from Stalinist propaganda—that portrays the United States as a conspiratorial...

The Wicked: For Good press tour was abruptly suspended in New York City just days before the movie’s release, with Hollywood outlets claiming Cynthia Erivo “lost her voice” and Ariana Grande refused to continue press appearances without her. But the official narrative isn’t sitting well with online observers. After all, since when does a singer temporarily losing her voice require a full-blown solidarity pact from her co-star, complete with the studio shutting down scheduled interviews? It’s a question fans, influencers, and industry watchers have been asking nonstop since the news broke. Speculation has only intensified because the Wicked press tour...

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) goes on House floor and makes an embarrassing mistake as she accuses certain Republicans of taking money from Jeffrey Epstein. Credit: C-SPAN screenshot Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) provided some unintentional comic relief right before the House decided to give her fellow Democrat, Stacey Plaskett, a pass regarding her dealings with Jeffrey Epstein. As The Gateway Pundit reported, the House of Representatives on Tuesday evening voted against censuring Rep. Stacey Plaskett (D-V.I.) over her collusion with Epstein during a 2019 congressional hearing. The House voted 214 -209 against censuring Plaskett. Every Democrat voted against the censure, while...

Bill Clinton’s Administration was infested with creeps who reportedly visited Epstein Island. President Trump is right. It is time to investigate the Clintons and the entire Democrat Party for their connections to Jeffrey Epstein. Bill Clinton We know that the Clintons are closely tied to Jeffrey Epstein. We reported in 2019 that investigative reporter Conchita Sarnoff, the author of “Trafficking” on the Jeffrey Epstein case, joined Shannon Bream and said Bill Clinton flew on Epstein’s plane 27 times and ALMOST EVERY TIME that Clinton was on the plane there were underage girls on the plane. Sarnoff also said Bill Clinton...

In the wake of the newly released Epstein files last week, President Donald Trump ordered an investigation into Democrats mentioned in the files -- including LinkedIn co-founder and major Democrat donor Reid Hoffman. On Tuesday, when pressed by ABC News' Mary Bruce, Trump lashed out about the files, saying Democrats should face scrutiny. Specifically, he called out Hoffman by name, saying, "Hoffman, in my opinion, should be under investigation." "He's a sleazebag," Trump added. Hoffman's ties to Epstein have previously been reported -- including a trip he took to Epstein's island. Hoffman has said he regretted the relationship, which he...

"How do we squash the prejudice against female presidential nominees, which has always been with us, but became even worse after Kamala Harris got whomped by Donald Trump?" Asks Gail Collins in a column with a title that asks a different question, "Where, oh Where, Will the First Female President Come From?"Maybe it would be better to ask this other question, my question: When will we ever get to evaluate a female presidential candidate as just another presidential candidate? We've been nudged too many times to pick the woman because she is a woman. It makes people wary. I mean,...

Remember back in 2022 when Rep. Ilhan Omar was speaking to a gathering of CAIR and referred to 9/11 as the day that "some people did something"? Now, a woman whom New York City Mayor-Elect Zohran Mamdani, whose father's second cousin was afraid to wear a hijab on the subway because of that something, has endorsed for the New York State Assembly a woman who describes 9/11 as "a terror attack that a couple people did." We wonder 1) how old she was on September 11, 2001, and 2) what university she graduated from, because she hits all the talking...

Rep. Anna Paulina Luna (R-FL) revealed Monday that Bill and Hillary Clinton are reportedly refusing to appear before the House Oversight Committee for their scheduled depositions regarding their association with Jeffrey Epstein. The Clintons were among several high-profile political figures, including former U.S. attorneys general and ex-FBI directors, subpoenaed in August 2025 as part of an expanded congressional investigation into the federal government’s handling of the Epstein case. Hillary Clinton’s deposition was originally set for October 9, 2025. Bill Clinton’s was scheduled for October 14. Both were delayed at the request of legal counsel. House Oversight Committee Chairman James Comer...

Demographics don’t lie. The governments of the world and their captured bureaucrats can manipulate inflation data, unemployment data, GDP data, and numerous other data based figures to make things appear better than they are. It’s called propaganda and manipulation to create a false narrative beneficial to their interests. But, demographic data can’t be massaged to provide a happy ending for the psychopaths in suits, running the show.They can ignore the data and pretend it doesn’t exist, but you can’t change the ages of the people inhabiting this planet.The data is dire for the Western world and Asia, particularly China, Taiwan,...

They’re preparing for a Mamdani administration lox, stock and barrel. Jewish New Yorkers are arming themselves before an anti-Israel “mayor who despises us” takes the helm of New York City, several told The Post this week. They want to “have a say in our protection and not have to rely on others,” one said. The morning after mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani’s victory, firearms instructors and gun shop owners were flooded with urgent pleas. “It’s getting busy because of him,” said longtime gun safety instructor Lance Dashefsky. … “I always ask people in class why they want a gun,” said Dashefsky. “And...

Two months ago today, people who enjoy comedy breathed a sigh of relief when Disney suspended low-rated late-night “comedian” Jimmy Kimmel for what he’d said, and planned to say, about Charlie Kirk’s murder. Less than a week later, Kimmel was back on the air. In between was an orgy of leftist outrage about how President Donald Trump was somehow responsible for forcing Kimmel off the air, that this was yet another sign of authoritarianism on the march, and “the mask of ‘free speech’ coming off for good.” Our favorite was a warning from “actor” Mark Ruffalo, who went on Threads...

Texas stands on the brink of conquest. Not by tanks or terrorists storming our borders in the open – no, the invasion advances silently through unchecked migration, exploding birth rates, and calculated land grabs that plant Sharia seeds deep in our soil. Look at London, once the throbbing heart of the British Empire, now a rotting corpse called Londonistan. Church bells lie silent while the muezzin’s wail blasts from minarets five times a day. Halal butchers dominate entire streets. Gangs of robed enforcers patrol neighborhoods, dictating what women wear and what infidels say. London’s Muslim population exploded to 15%, turning...

PLEASE DO NOT RESPOND TO THIS ON SOCIAL MEDIA !! We are interested in hearing from any Christian individual who has the experience of living and working (or having lived and worked), for 1,000 days or longer, inside of a country governed by a totalitarian or authoritarian system or regime; that governing system/regime being either religious or atheistic.

You know, I've stood in front of cameras for most of my life. I've played gunslingers, cops, cowboys, outlaws. I've directed stories about heroes and villains, about redemption and revenge. But I've never been more nervous than I am right now standing here to talk about something that's more real than anything I've ever put on screen. I'm here to tell you about the day I gave my life to Jesus Christ. and more importantly, why he's the only way. Now, I know what some of you might be thinking. Clint Eastwood, the guy who played the man with no...

After failing to find an attorney willing to take up Fulton County Fani Willis’ troubled 2020 election case, the prosecutor conducting the search for her replacement appointed himself. The Prosecuting Attorneys Council of Georgia (PACGA) faced a Nov. 14 deadline to select a new attorney or have the case dismissed. “The filing of this appointment reflects my inability to secure another conflict prosecutor to assume responsibility for this case,” PACGA Executive Director Peter Skanadlakis wrote. “Several prosecutors were contacted and, while all were respectful and professional, each declined the appointment. Out of respect for their privacy and professional discretion, I...

President Trump lost the tools necessary to examine the 2020 election process for fraud when he left office on January 20, 2021. He regained those tools on January 20, 2025. The questions were the same on both dates, although we know more now than we knew then -- or so we think.Too many examinations of the events in the country between Dec. 15 and Jan. 6 , 2021, are built on the premise of what we we think we know as a result of examinations that took place over many months and years AFTER the election of November 3, 2020....

Wednesday on CNN’s “The Situation Room,” Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) claimed President Donald Trump was “more corrupt and more criminal than any other president than we’ve had.” Host Pamela Brown said, “We spoke to Marlin Stutzman earlier, he’s a Republican, and he tried to make the case that President Trump is the most investigated person in the world, and he has not been accused of any criminal wrongdoing here. What do you make of that?” Crockett said, “Listen, they will do and say anything to cover themselves.You know, I will admit that Donald Trump has been investigated more than the...
