Anne Holton, wife of U.S. Sen. Tim Kaine (D-VA), denounced the Declaration of Independence and Constitution as “fundamental in enshrining slavery.” Holton made the comments as Virginia Gov. Glenn Youngkin’s (R) new history standards were approved 5-3 by the Commonwealth’s Board of Education, upon which she sits. She said: To an audience as inclusive as our Virginia is, you cannot reference the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution as ‘remarkable documents’ without also acknowledging that they [are] fundamental in enshrining slavery, and limiting the protections that they provided only to white property-owning men.

There is a lot of speculation on the Internet about whether or not Damar Hamlin will recover from his injury. I am very sad to report that this is unlikely. While I very much hope that I am wrong about this, the evidence that is known is not favorable. The medical experts I consulted believe that there is a high likelihood that Damar Hamlin was brain dead within 10 minutes after he dropped to the ground. The primary reason for this conclusion is the 9 minutes of CPR. It is simply very rare for someone not to be brain dead...

John Fetterman again refuses to release his full medical records: "I do believe that I'm fit to be serve." The comments were made during an interview that aired on 10/31/22

President Biden thought the late Rep. Jackie Walorski (R-Ind.) was alive Wednesday because she was “top of mind” for him as he prepares to meet her family Friday, White House press secretary Karine Jean-Pierre claimed to the incredulity of the press corps. The Biden administration’s regular briefing later devolved into chaos as reporters pressed Jean-Pierre to address the 79-year-old president’s mental health. Biden made the gaffe earlier Wednesday at a nutrition event in Washington, saying, “Jackie — are you here? Where’s Jackie?” despite the fact that he publicly mourned Walorski’s death in a car crash last month — and even...

Pennsylvania Democratic Senate nominee John Fetterman shared a text reportedly sent by accused philanderer Adam Levine to mock his GOP opponent Mehmet Oz. (See it below.) An Instagram model alleged this week that the married Maroon 5 frontman carried on an affair with her. Levine admitted he crossed the line, but denied sexual involvement. Then provocative messages from Levine emerged that were directed at other women. In one of them, Levine purportedly expresses his desire for the woman’s derriere ― and Fetterman converted that into commentary on Oz’s campaign.

President Joe Biden had some choice of words for his opposing party members during his first political rally speech as the November midterm elections round the corner. While making his rounds in Maryland on Thursday night, Biden portrayed MAGA Republicans as a “threat to democracy,” criticizing former president Trump for creating a movement that so many support. “The MAGA Republicans don’t just threaten our personal rights and economic security… They're a threat to our very democracy. They refuse to accept the will of the people,” Biden boldly claimed, adding “Trump and the extreme MAGA Republicans have made their choice —...

Joe Biden on Thursday virtually hosted a roundtable event with business and labor leaders to discuss his Marxist ‘Inflation Reduction Act’ that will raise taxes amid a recession. Biden, 79, is currently isolating at the White House after testing positive for Covid for the sixth day in a row. Joe Biden’s physician Dr. O’Connor still has not answered any questions regarding Biden’s lingering Covid infection leading many to believe the Regime is hiding Biden because his cognitive decline is becoming unmanageable. Biden complained about not being able to buy an electric Corvette. "I can’t drive a vehicle while I’m Vice...

On Tuesday’s broadcast of “MSNBC Prime,” Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) stated that “we saw the seismic increase of carnage across America using automatic weapons” after the Assault Weapons Ban Act expired in 2004 and she thinks that there is support “for a seven-day waiting period for even purchasing an assault weapon if necessary. Because there are other automatic weapons as well.” Jackson Lee said, “I have committed, over the years, having introduced bills dealing with the ban on assault weapons post-2004, as you well know, Ayman, that’s when it ended. And we saw the seismic increase of carnage across...

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi acknowledged there are 'challenges' for Democrats in the upcoming midterm elections but said that her party has every intention of holding on to power. 'I have no intention of the Democrats not winning the House this November,' the California Democrat told reporters on Thursday morning. 'People really want us to win,' she added. 'There are challenges,' Pelosi acknowledged, blaming new strains of Covid-19 and 'other factors' that had log jammed the supply chain and lead to 40 year-high inflation, running at 8.3 percent as of April.

On Tuesday CNN is introducing CNN+, a subscription streaming service that combines live news coverage, on-demand programming and interactive interviews. CNN's goal is to establish closer relationships with news consumers — the same way Netflix (NFLX) and HBO Max have done in entertainment. It has hired hundreds of people and developed dozens of shows for this new platform. Analysts say it is the most ambitious streaming news venture to date in the United States. "We are going to be the only global video-driven news subscription business," CNN chief digital officer and head of CNN+ Andrew Morse said in an interview....

Kettl and Paul GlastrisDATE: July 1, 2021RE: Only You Can Save the Federal Government It may seem audacious, even patronizing, for two moderate-ish Baby Boomers like us to be offering advice to you, the most influential leader of the Millennial left. But we come in peace, with a message we urge you to consider because, as Princess Leia said to Obi-Wan Kenobi, you’re our only hope.You and other progressive leaders have bold ideas for how government can help people and save the planet.

AOC calls out ‘white men’ who voted against Juneteenth Queens Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez called out her House GOP colleagues who voted against establishing “Juneteenth” as a federal holiday. “They were all men and they were all white. Like all white men. There weren’t even women. Like no diversity in it,” AOC told TMZ in an on-the-street interview on Capitol Hill. “It just goes to show that there is a lot of denialism and that also kind of ties into why they don’t want us to teach the history of racism in our school either,” she added, taking a shot at...

Catholic voters helped elect Democratic candidate Joe Biden as the next U.S. president, as more people belonging to the denomination shrugged off an often hostile clergy and key issues like abortion rights, a recent survey found. While President Donald Trump won support from eight out of every 10 white evangelical Christian voters, Catholics were split nearly down the middle between him and Biden, according to data from AP VoteCast. Fifty percent of Catholics backed Trump while 49 percent favored Biden. In the 2020 election, Catholic voters accounted for a significant 22 percent of the electorate—a crucial demographic for either candidate...

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) claimed Friday evening that 50,000 Americans died because the Senate failed to remove President Donald Trump from office during the impeachment trial in February. (snip) Schiff told MSNBC’s Chris Hayes: There is one thing that, really, I have to say haunts me from the trial and it was before that snippet you showed where we knew we had to answer the question to the senators, okay, essentially, house managers, you’ve proved him guilty [sic] (emphasis mine), does he really need to be removed after all? we have an election in nine months....

Yesterday the World Health Organization officially declared Covid-19 a pandemic (like we didn’t already know this.) As well, President Trump addressed the nation, closing American borders to all flights from Europe and announcing some ways he intends to help the people of the United States financially. In unofficial terms, this is sh#t getting real. Things are going to get worse – possibly much worse – before they get better. Illness completely aside, this will cause financial problems that many folks will feel for years after the pandemic is over. The biggest question people are asking now is, “When?” When will...

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) slammed former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg in an interview Tuesday, suggesting that even if the billionaire candidate were to win the presidency in November, he would pave the way for "a worse Trump." "Obviously, we have to beat Trump, but if we beat Trump and go back to the same policies that we had before, a worse Trump is going to come. A Trump that’s more sophisticated, whose fascism is less obvious, is going to come, and things could get even worse," Ocasio-Cortez, a prominent campaign surrogate for Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), said during...
