Zohran Mamdani’s rise from little-known New York state assemblyman to front-runner in the New York mayoral election has sparked a newfound sense of optimism among left-wing politicians in Europe ahead of their own local elections next year. Party strategists from across Europe are making the trek across the Atlantic to learn from the millennial who skyrocketed from anonymity to the precipice of the most important city in the United States (or the world, if you ask a New Yorker). They want to see if Mamdani’s grassroots campaign, which has been laser-focused on affordability issues, will work in their cities and...

C3 @C_3C_3 Well well well… Judge McConnell donated $700K to Democrats. He runs nonprofit Crossroads Rhode Island that has received $128 million in government funding. McConnell is now demanding POTUS Trump illegally fund SNAP. After he tried to block DOGE cuts. He’s a Dem activist.

Mike Benz has laid out a roadmap for Attorney General Pam Bondi to hold corrupt Obama-appointed Judge James Boasberg accountable. This comes amid the exploding Arctic Frost Scandal, where the Biden DOJ’s rogue Special Counsel Jack Smith orchestrated a massive spying operation on at least ten GOP senators and other conservatives. Senators Lindsey Graham and Ted Cruz both confirmed this week that their official and campaign phone records were secretly subpoenaed by Special Counsel Jack Smith, with Judge Boasberg personally signing a gag order to conceal the unconstitutional seizure from them for over a year. Senator Graham revealed on X...

@TrueGenFlynn Now you all know why Elon Musk & DOGE were shut down. The UNIPARTY was caught with their pants down and no longer wanted the exposure. It was butt ugly! https://truthsocial.com/@TrueGenFlynn/posts/115480668971600808

Barack Obama is ready to throw his hat back into the political fray. According to CNN, the two-time former president is “not so sure” that the country will survive Donald Trump’s presidency and is preparing to step up his campaigning efforts in support of the Democratic Party. Their report states: After deliberately stepping back during the Biden years — while remaining the party’s biggest fundraiser even then — Obama and his aides are reworking his longstanding strategy of minimizing his public presence to allow the next generation of Democrats to emerge. Trump’s moves to block Democrats from power since his...

With an epic rhetorical flourish, Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) blasted the Democrats for a 29-day shutdown, rejecting 14 clean continuing resolutions (CRs) that would fund the troops, SNAP, WIC, TSA, air traffic controllers, and nuclear defense workers. Supporting his argument, he noted that a recent poll found that 70%+ of the public feels that Democrats are out of touch and stated that major unions, such as the AFGE and Teamsters, are urging Democrats to reopen government. Additionally, he slammed the SNAP-only lawsuit a “scam” to prolong pain for political leverage against the “far left.” Starting his comments, the speaker of...

Friday on MSNBC’s “Deadline,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) claimed lawmakers had seen “no evidence” the Trump administration’s military strikes were on drug boats. Host Nicolle Wallace asked, “What briefings have you received on the success of striking drug traffickers? Have you seen evidence or images of drugs being found on the boats that have been struck?” Blumenthal said, “What briefings? Zero. And as you may know, I think it’s public by now, there was a briefing for Republican senators only, which is unprecedented. So we’ve seen no evidence, none whatsoever, as to who is in these boats, more than ten...

The U.S. Department of the Treasury outed and sanctioned a human smuggling organization based in Cancun that focused on moving the Middle East, Europe, Asia, and South America. The organization used yachts to move thousands of migrants into Mexico, from where it would work with other groups to get them to California. In a recent action, the U.S. Treasury Department announced that it was targeting Vikrant Bhardwaj, a dual Mexican-Indian national, and the Cancun-based organization bearing his name. Treasury officials claim that Bhardwaj worked with various criminal organizations to move thousands of migrants through Mexico into the United States, as...

In an exclusive new interview, Rep. Barry Loudermilk (R-GA) — Chairman of the New January 6 Select Subcommittee — tells GP reporter Cara Castronuova that key evidence surrounding the January 6 pipe bomber was “mysteriously disappeared” or “corrupted,” raising questions about what Biden’s FBI and Pelosi’s Select Committee were hiding from the American people. VIDEO AT L:INK................ “The story that we were fed all this time doesn’t hold a lot of water,” Loudermilk said. “None of it makes logical sense.” **CROWD SOURCING ALL CITIZEN JOURNALISTS AND GP SLEUTHS! Please listen to the full interview and after hearing the evidence so...

The phrasing here is ... interesting. "My campaign manager called me up to say we need 200k more votes that we cannot find" Kamala recounts losing to Trump: pic.twitter.com/hPUUADVsLY— End Wokeness (@EndWokeness) October 30, 2025================================================================ Normally, you'd hear a candidate say something like, "We need to turn out 200,000 more voters in key swing states," or "it doesn't look like we have the 200,000 votes we need." But "we need an additional 200,000 votes that we can't find"? Lest we forget, Trump was impeached (the second time) and later indicted as a result of a phone call in which he...

CNBC host Joe Kernen, a conservative, did not mince words during a Wednesday segment with Sen. Peter Welch (D-VT). Asked if he was ready to vote to reopen the government yet, Welch replied, “You know, I’m not there yet. Because we have had literally, Joe, no discussion whatsoever about how we’re going to deal with the spikes in premiums.” Kernen, clearly exasperated, shut him down. “This is the right way to do it, senator? By people not getting paychecks at the TSA? This is extortion! … In your conscience, you think it’s the right way to do it?” WOW. When...

FBI Director Kash Patel reportedly ousted one of the leading special agents who oversaw the Arctic Frost investigation into President Trump. “Operation Arctic Frost” was a taxpayer-funded witch hunt launched in April 2022 that seized government-issued cell phones belonging to Trump and Pence while conducting a barrage of interviews across the country. The 2020 Trump alternate electors prompted the Biden DOJ to open the Arctic Frost investigation into Trump and hundreds of other individuals and organizations. According to MSNBC, Patel is ousting Aaron Tapp, one of the lead agents on Arctic Frost. Aaron Tapp is a Special Agent in Charge...

Huckabee: 'Wasn’t aware Tucker despises me, I get that a lot from people not familiar with the Bible' Former Fox News host and analyst Tucker Carlson continued his descent into rank antisemitism on Tuesday, publishing an interview with far-right podcaster Nick Fuentes, who has engaged in open holocaust denial and praised Hitler in the past. Despite former disagreements between them, Carlson and Fuentes bonded over their shared suspicion of “these Jews,” as well as their distaste for Christian Zionism and its supporters among the Republican Party. The self-identified lapsed Episcopalian Carlson lauded Fuentes for his criticism of Israel and U.S....

In 2021, Random House published a book by software tycoon Bill Gates titled How to Avoid a Climate Disaster. The message was clear: The world is heading toward a climate catastrophe if humans keep using fossil fuels. Everyone in the world had been hearing that message loud and clear for the previous two decades, and Gates, who’s been moonlighting as a climate expert for just as long, was not only one of the loudest voices to broadcast it, but someone who had put piles of money where his mouth was.But something very interesting happened this week. Sure, he still believes...

In one of America’s most popular novels, seven-year-old Scout has been reading “ever since she was born.” She and her father read the newspapers together every evening. Late in the summer, she realized she would be starting school in a week. “I never looked forward more to anything in my life. Hours of wintertime had found me in the treehouse, looking over at the schoolyard, spying on the children there. ... I longed to join them.” But everything changed by lunchtime! Scout’s older brother Jem asked how she was getting along on her first day of school. “I told him....

What I want everyone at COP30 to know. Climate change is serious, but we’ve made great progress. We need to keep backing the breakthroughs that will help the world reach zero emissions. But we can’t cut funding for health and development—programs that help people stay resilient in the face of climate change—to do it. It’s time to put human welfare at the center of our climate strategies, which includes reducing the Green Premium to zero and improving agriculture and health in poor countries. There’s a doomsday view of climate change that goes like this:In a few decades, cataclysmic climate change...

A campaign finance watchdog group, the Coolidge Reagan Foundation, filed two criminal referrals against Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani on Tuesday, claiming he received illegal contributions from foreign donors. However, the Mamdani campaign maintains that any issue regarding financial contributions has been resolved. Mamdani’s campaign accepted nearly $13,000 from 170 donors from outside the US. “These are not isolated incidents or clerical errors,” Dan Backer, a national campaign finance expert and president of the Coolidge Reagan Foundation, told Fox News Digital. “This was a sustained pattern of foreign money flowing into a New York City mayoral race which is a...

The Arctic Frost investigation was a codenamed FBI probe launched in April 2022 under the Biden administration. Originally, we were told it was an investigation into the legitimate alternative electors from the 2020 election. On Tuesday, we found out that the investigation was much more than that. It now appears that Arctic Frost, launched by Jack Smith and the Biden regime, was an attempt to wipe out MAGA and to persecute many of the top MAGA personalities. As The Gateway Pundit reported on Tuesday, the Republican-led House Judiciary Committee released new Arctic Frost documents, which revealed the investigation was much...

New information about the Biden White House cocaine scandal was revealed this week. A baggy of cocaine was discovered in the West Wing after Hunter Biden visited the White House in early July 2023. The Secret Service closed its investigation into the Biden White House cocaine scandal without conducting any interviews. No suspect was identified. According to CNN, the baggy of cocaine was “found in a blind spot for surveillance cameras.” The White House initially said there were no fingerprints, DNA samples, or leads. However, it was later revealed that there was a partial DNA hit and then-Secret Service Director...

Opinion by Wayne Allyn Root I was the first mainstream TV and radio host in America to warn my viewers and listeners to run away from the Covid vaccine like it was a hand grenade. And then the unAmerican censorship started. From the first day the vaccine was available, I told my viewers, listeners and readers to exercise their right of free will. I warned that I would never buy a car in its first year of production, so why would I want to become the first to take an experimental, for-emergency-use-only vaccine, when no one had any idea what...
