EVERYONE IN AMERICA Knows things were better under President Trump – no matter what garbage the media is pushing. And EVERYTHING is worse under Joe Biden. The Marxist left is destroying the country. And it’s not likely to get any better as long as Democrats hold on to power. Last week President Donald Trump announced he will hold a rally in South Bronx, New York this Thursday to “highlight the horrendous effects Crooked Joe Biden’s presidency had had on our economy,: according to a statement released by the former president’s campaign Friday. This announcement comes after President Trump delivered remarks...

The prospect that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu might soon address a joint session of Congress is already stirring a storm of controversy on Capitol Hill, where liberal Democrats — up in arms over Israel’s conduct in the war with Hamas — are already vowing a boycott. The bitter conflict has been an ongoing headache for President Biden and other Democratic leaders, who are attempting a delicate balance between supporting America’s closest Middle Eastern ally in a time of war while denouncing elements of Netanyahu’s military strategy, which has resulted in thousands of civilian deaths in Gaza.

HEAVEN — According to sources in the celestial realm, God is scratching His head in wonderment that Democrats somehow managed to mess up California. "You guys were literally given everything! How do you even do that?" said a spokesangel for the Almighty. "You have perfect weather, beautiful coastline, great surfing, skiing in the mountains, fish tacos, rolling vineyards, the list goes on. How on earth did you manage to take the most beautiful stretch of land on God's earth and turn it into a huge dump?" "It doesn't make any sense." Sources say Democrats in California took issue with the...

The Michigan community of Green Charter Township on Friday lost a court battle to block Chinese-linked electric vehicle (EV) battery manufacturer Gotion Inc. from building a factory near the town. Michigan is generally friendly to Chinese investments and the Gotion project in Green Charter Township was specifically endorsed by Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D), who called it “the biggest ever economic development project in Northern Michigan.”

There are three things certain in life: death, taxes, and self-styled fact-checkers defending Democrats on late-term abortion. The latest example came on Friday from D.L. Davis, who gave Wisconsin Sen. Ron Johnson a “false” label for claiming “Every Senate Democrat has voted to support unlimited abortions up to the moment of birth.” Johnson’s office cited the Democrats’ 2022 Women’s Health Protection Act and Davis took exception to the use of the word “every,” writing “[Sen. Joe] Manchin, R-W.Va. [sic], voted no along with Republican senators on the measure. The vote was 49 Yes and 51 No." It’s ironic that Davis...

CHICAGO (WLS) -- At least 45 people have been shot, one fatally, in gun violence across Chicago so far this weekend, police said. Two teenage boys and a man were wounded in a drive-by shooting in the Austin neighborhood Friday evening. They were standing near the sidewalk around 7:30 p.m. in the 5500-block of West Quincy Street when a black Kia drove by and someone from inside opened fire, Chicago police said. About an hour later, six men were shot on Chicago's West Side, police said. The men were on the street when multiple suspects opened fire, police said. Three...

The House on Friday overcame opposition from dozens of Democrats in passing a Republican-led resolution that condemns calls to defund the police. The resolution, approved in a 337-61 vote, was part of the House Republicans’ National Police Week push to denounce efforts to defund the police and "[express] condolences and solemn appreciation" to family members of officers who died in the line of duty. The legislation also highlighted a "lack of accountability for violent criminals with decreased penalties and no-bail policies," which the Republicans said "has opened the door for record criminal activity in cities across the country." All 61...

Today’s gun control politicians are making it clear. It’s not just guns they despise. There are two other primary obstacles to civil disarmament that they loathe.One is the Second Amendment itself. The other, well, it’s you – the gun owner.It wasn’t that long ago when President Barack Obama lambasted gun owners who refused to roll over to his gun control agenda. Stumping for his first election to The White House, he told fundraisers at a San Francisco event of smalltown Pennsylvania voters that were left behind, especially by the political elites.“And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling...

Critics on social media dragged President Biden over video footage showing what appeared to be a small showing of supporters greeting the president’s motorcade in the deep blue city of Atlanta, where he held a fundraising event and delivered Morehouse College’s commencement speech. "Crooked Joe Biden – dazed and confused, as usual – shuffles down the short stairs in Atlanta ahead of his day of pandering. He ignores questions," RNC research posted Saturday as Biden landed in the city. "If a presidential motorcade passes through town but absolutely nobody cares – did it really pass through town?" RNC Research asked...

To those calling for Justice Alito's (and Justice Thomas') recusal on January 6th cases because their wives expressed personal political opinions (3 years ago): Meet the-late Ramona Ripston. For 38 years, she led the ACLU of Southern California. She was the wife of the-late Judge Stephen Reinhardt on the Ninth Circuit. Ramona Ripston filed an amicus brief in the trial court in a same-sex marriage case. Judge Reinhardt--her husband--heard the appeal. He faced calls for his recusal. The left expressed indignation in this 2013 court filing:

A mother, who was the victim of a home invasion, is outraged after a 911 dispatcher told her she should call a local lawmaker to request more police funding. Michelle, who has chosen to remain anonymous, called 911 six times after two men broke into her Chicago home. When they picked up, they told her if she wanted help from the police, she should call her alderman and demand more funding for the Chicago police department. 'A gentleman got on and said sorry to say we have no units to send you…then there was an awkward pause,' she told NBC...

There's an election coming up and Satan is a bit worried that Democrats are really going too far and will turn off the voting public. Satan really appreciates all the work they are doing to kill babies, destroy America, mutilate kids, genocide the Jews, and all sorts of other things he really approves, but they really need to tone down a bit for a few months. Oh when he said that everyone in the room went into a tizzy.

Dozens of Democratic lawmakers signed a letter to President Biden, pleading with him to act on high grocery prices that have been slow to fall as inflation has come down. Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., led the letter Monday morning, calling on Biden to "exercise your executive authority to take additional action to address rising food prices without congressional action." The letter amassed 40 Democratic signatories between the House and Senate, including senators Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., and Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn., and representatives Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., and Rashida Tlaib, D-Mich., among others. The lawmakers acknowledged "Americans are facing sky-high...

Americans can be forgiven for suffering from whiplash regarding law and order. In recent weeks the Biden administration and many news outlets, including USA Today and The Hill, have touted declines in violent crime statistics to argue that America is becoming a safer place. “Right now, with 2023 figures and early 2024, the trends are all pointing down, in a positive direction,” Jeff Asher, whose New Orleans-based AH Datalytics is developing his own “Real-Time Crime Index,” told RealClearInvestigations. Conservative outlets, including City Journal and the editorial page of the Wall Street Journal, assert that minor declines in headline grabbers like...

Biden did it again. A feeble, decrepit, brain-dead, old man with dementia and diapers is running the country. Have you heard? And people with dementia often “spill the beans.” They have no filter. So, they act like little kids- they say whatever is on their mind. Secrets come spilling out. Pay attention to Joe Biden. He has dementia and belongs in a nursing home, not the White House. So, sometimes secrets come spilling out of his decrepit mouth. ... The secret to how Democrats planned to beat Trump in the 2020 presidential election came spilling out of Biden’s decrepit mouth...

The Vice President used profanity during a speech at the at the annual Asian Pacific American Institute for Congressional Studies Legislative Leadership summit.

“My take is that the US is incredibly unstable right now, and could go in almost any imaginable direction between now and the election, as well as some unimaginable ones.” —John Michael Greer. Did you notice that it took just a little bit of internal chaos to alert the Party of Chaos that maybe chaos wasn’t the greatest thing to be the party of? Something went awry the past two weeks when thousands of creamy coeds on every campus across America donned the keffiyeh and, in effect, demanded submission to history’s most notorious misogynist cult. It struck a most cacophonous...
