Free Republic

@RepThomasMassie During our appearance on ABC this morning, my colleague @RepRoKhanna announced we will have the 218 votes needed for the Epstein discharge petition by the end of this month. When this vote happens, will your congressman vote for transparency and justice… or against?

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,...

Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI) closed out the radical “People’s Conference for Palestine” in Detroit Sunday by boasting of her congressional power and Palestinian resilience, telling cheering attendees, “Now we’re in Congress, and we’re in every corner of the United States. We aren’t going anywhere. We are just getting started,” and declaring that their grassroots activism is winning against the “decaying halls of the empire in Washington, DC.” The weekend-long conference, organized by a coalition of radical pro-Palestinian groups, drew scrutiny for featuring extremist voices alongside Tlaib, including convicted terrorists and anti-American activists who openly called for dismantling U.S. institutions. One...

“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.

ar AL-QATTAA/AFP/AFP More than 250 media outlets in over 70 countries staged a front page protest Monday highlighting the deaths of scores of journalists in Israel's war against Hamas in Gaza, the Reporters Without Borders media freedom group said. "At the rate journalists are being killed in Gaza by the Israeli army, there will soon be no-one left to keep you informed," the group's general director Thibaut Bruttin said in a statement. The protest was taken up on the website front pages of publications including Qatari broadcaster Al Jazeera, British news site The Independent, French newspapers La Croix and L'Humanite...

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...

Rep. Rashida Tlaib will headline a Detroit pro-Palestinian conference featuring ex-prisoners, extremistsA controversial pro-Palestinian gathering in Detroit is drawing scrutiny for featuring speakers with extremist views—including two former Israeli prisoners released in a Hamas deal—alongside Rep. Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., a prominent anti-Israel congresswoman. The second annual "People's Conference for Palestine" conference, which is being organized by a dozen different pro-Palestinian groups, will begin Friday afternoon and will end on Sunday. Rep. Tlaib will speak alongside several individuals accused of espousing antisemitic rhetoric, including a professor who has compared Jews to Nazis, a journalist who quipped about Hamas kidnapping "several...

A progressive House "Squad" member is attacking her own state party leadership for going back on its endorsement of a self-described democratic socialist to be mayor of Minneapolis. Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., called out the Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party (DFL), the Democrats' affiliate group in Minnesota, late on Thursday night after it revoked its endorsement of state Sen. Omar Fateh. DFL leaders cited "substantial failures" in its endorsement convention process. "It is inexcusable to overturn the DFL endorsement from Omar Fateh," Omar wrote on X. "A small group, a majority living outside Minneapolis, met privately to overturn the will of Minneapolis delegates...

A former campaign staffer for Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) has been charged with making terroristic threats, raising serious questions about the judgment and character of those aligned with the progressive left. Iman Addul, a former youth organizer for the Squad member, allegedly posted a screenshot on Thursday showing the location of Leon M. Goldstein High School for the Sciences in Manhattan Beach on Google Maps, accompanied by a threatening message. “If anyone needs a public school in NYC to attack for whatever reason … Lexus driving Israhell (sic) loving Zionisits (sic) all attend here,” the post, which has since been...

United States District Judge Nancy E. Brasel sentenced Abdiaziz Shafii Farah, age 36, to 28 years in prison followed by three years of supervised release for his role in a $300 million fraud scheme that exploited a federally program to feed hungry kids during the COVID-19 pandemic. Farah helped orchestrate the largest known COVID-19 fraud scheme called Feeding Our Future in Minnesota. Farah and his co-defendants stole more than $47 million by claiming to serve 18 million meals to kids at more than 30 food distribution sites. Farah was also ordered to pay restitution in the amount of $47,920,514. He's...

Many enemies of Israel, including some in the United States Congress, see the U.S.-Israel relationship as one-sided. This is true of Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), who, in interview with Steve Bannon earlier this month, stated, “I’m entering amendments to strike 500 million more dollars for nuclear-armed Israel. .... The $500 million Rep. Greene is speaking of is for missile defense cooperation, and the U.S. Defense Department is a major beneficiary of Israeli research and development. As a result of the experience Israel has garnered from employing various missile defense systems — such as the Iron Dome, David Sling, and Arrow...

WASHINGTON — Far-left Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez flouted House ethics rules by accepting more than $3,700 in rented apparel and other gifts for her notorious appearance at the 2021 Met Gala — including a glitzy gown emblazoned with “Tax The Rich” in blood-red letters and a free ticket for her then-boyfriend Riley Roberts — but paying less than $1,000 for the goodies. The House Ethics Committee faulted the Bronx and Queens “Squad” member for not complying with its regulation on gifts and improperly giving Roberts a free ride to the annual charity event put on by Vogue grande dame Anna Wintour...

President Trump on Tuesday gleefully needled his longtime foe, New York Dem Sen. Chuck Schumer, by predicting that “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez would beat him if she takes him on in 2028. Trump, going off on a tangent during a discussion on the deadly floods that unleashed hell on Texas Hill Country last week, said the Senate minority leader has a penchant for blaming him for crises. “I saw a Palestinian senator, his name is Schumer. He’s a great Palestinian,” Trump said of the pol, who is the highest elected Jewish official in the country. “He’s become a Palestinian, he...

#ArmyOfParents #IStandWithRiley @ArmyOfParents. Who in Northern Virginia has children at @NysmithSchool for the gifted? If you do, you need to demand the resignation of the headmaster or pull your children out immediately. The rapid rise of antisemitism has emboldened antisemites, who are singing the praises of Hitler and targeting Jewish students. This is not only disgusting, but a blatant violation of civil rights. @JasonMiyaresVA MUST address this immediately and @GovernorVA MUST condemn the actions of Nysmith School. @EndAntisemetism @StandWithUs @JCRCgw @Yael4Hanover @KatzForChair @WMALDC @JulieGunlock @LarryOConnor @ChrisPlanteShow @marklevinshow @wapo @dcexaminer Quote: Marina Medvin 🇺🇸 @MarinaMedvin · Jul 1.

Way back when dinosaurs roamed the Earth, democrats had some semblance of class and seriousness. People like Patrick Moynahan, a democrat from NY, used to argue all day with Newt Gingrich but kept it civil and classy and largely honest. Today that's a lost art. Now we witness people like Jamie Raskin, who is a perpetual liar In case his lie wasn't heard the first time, Jamie Raskin doubles down on the "very fine people" hoax again.How many times is the left going to repeat this line? pic.twitter.com/qr7v5fYkuI — Media Research Center (@theMRC) June 24, 2025Even Snopes debunked it but...

Pennsylvania Sen. John Fetterman brushed aside far-left “Squad” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s clamoring to impeach President Trump over his Saturday strikes against three of Iran’s nuclear facilities.

Lefty New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez warns that if former Gov. Andrew Cuomo wins the city’s mayoral race, he will use it as a stepping stone for a presidential bid. “This is not just about New York City, but this is about the United States,” the far-left Dem told an enthusiastic crowd she stumped for fellow socialist and mayoral wannabe Zohran Mamdani at Terminal 5 in Manhattan on Saturday. “I mean that literally, because Andrew Cuomo has made clear that if he wins this race, he wants to run for president of the United States of America,” AOC said. Ocasio-Cortez,...

Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani denounced India Prime Minister Narendra Modi a “war criminal” — and is now being ripped by other city leaders for spreading “hate” about the Hindu head of state. On the heels of making similarly provocative comments about Israel Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, Mamdani blasted Modi during a recent mayoral forum. “This is someone we should view in the same manner we do Benjamin Netenyahu. This is a war criminal,” Mamdani said when asked a hypothetical question about whether he would meet Modi if the Indian leader visited the Big Apple. Mamdani, who...
