The Democratic Party's Self-Inflicted
Wounds Just Keep Getting Worse, and They
Can't Stop the Bleeding
Posted By: Imright, 4/19/2025 3:30:23 AM
Sometimes you just can't help but laugh. For some time now, the Democratic Party's been dealing with approval ratings lower than a snake on a submarine and sinking faster than a lead brick in clear water. Their embrace of every possible policy position that at least 80 percent of the country opposes has cost them, and let's hope they never figure it out.A new Gallup poll is in, and for Republicans as well as any Americans who aren't barking nuts (Democrats), it's giggle-inducing. Confidence in the Democratic Party's congressional leadership has sunk to an all-time low, according to a new national poll.

President Trump is expected to attend the funeral of Pope Francis in Vatican City later this week, sources familiar with the plans tell The Post.
The funeral and interment of Francis, who died early Monday at the age of 88, must take place between four and six days after his death, though the exact schedule has yet to be finalized. (Photos) At the White House Easter Egg Roll, Trump did not say whether he would attend the funeral, telling reporters: “I don’t know yet. We’re going to be briefed on it right now … I just have to look at the timing.”
President Donald Trump and first lady Melania Trump expected to welcome 40,000 people to the first White House Easter Egg Roll of his second term, though the annual event could turn soggy with scattered showers in Monday’s forecast. The president and first lady were scheduled to address the crowd from a White House balcony before they join the festivities.
Sunday was the day for Easter greetings from many quarters.
But there was something odd that people noticed immediately about the Easter message from the Democrats' X account. Do you see it? (X Photo) What, or should I say who, was missing in this panoply of Democratic occupants of the Oval Office over the years?
You have Jimmy Carter from the 1970s, John F. Kennedy from the 1960s, Barack Obama from the 2000s, and Bill Clinton from the 90s.
But Joe Biden is missing.
Pope Francis’ death has set off a centuries-old orchestrated series of events to honor his life and legacy, though the funeral for the 266th pope will likely differ drastically from those of his predecessors.
The beloved pontiff, who died on Monday at 88 following a lengthy battle of double pneumonia, made changes to his funeral rites last year that underscore his humility while ditching the traditional pomp and circumstance. (Photo) Typically, papal funerals are held four to six days after the death in St. Peter’s Square, however, Francis had said that, unlike his predecessors, he would not be laid to rest in the crypt of St. Peter’s Basilica. Instead,

In the Gateway Pundit, I recently documented how Letitia James misrepresented the number of apartment units in her apartment building when applying for loans and refinancing.
Letitia repeatedly told banks and the US government that her apartment building at 296 Lafayette Avenue in Brooklyn only had four apartment units, when in fact the official Certificate of Occupancy for her building indicates it had five.
Four House Democrats are visiting El Salvador in a bid to support Kilmar Abrego Reps. Yassamin Ansari of Arizona, Maxine Dexter of Oregon, Maxwell Frost of Florida and Robert Garcia of California arrived in the Central American nation on Sunday to investigate the condition of Kilmar Abrego Garcia,Garcia, a man whom the Trump administration deported to a notorious Salvadoran prison
More Democratic lawmakers are visiting El Salvador on Abrego Garcia’s behalf. Four House Democratic lawmakers have traveled to El Salvador to call attention to the plight of a man the Trump administration deported to a Salvadoran prison and has refused to help return — even after the Supreme Court ruled
President Trump reportedly plans to pull an additional billion dollars in funding from Harvard University, just a week after freezing $2.2 billion in multi-year federal grants over the Ivy League school’s refusal to make changes to curb alleged antisemitism and overhaul admissions policies.
Following the week-long escalating dispute, sources told The Wall Street Journal that the Trump administration is looking to withdraw an additional billion dollars from the school’s funding for health research.
After being tossed out of a press conference and his home swatted by cruel crank callers, the father of slain teen Austin Metcalf nevertheless honored his son by sharing a poignant, heartfelt message on Easter Sunday — almost three weeks after his 17-year-old son was fatally stabbed during a Texas high school track meet.
It came in the form of tear-jerking song by country singer Will Dempsey called “Beat You There” that Metcalf posted on Facebook. He wrote with it, “I love you Austin. Happy Easter.”
The bittersweet opening lyrics and chorus:
I don’t know why God always takes the good ones first
Left-wing Arizona Democrat Gov. Katie Hobbs has vetoed a bill passed by the state legislature that would require local and state law enforcement to cooperate with federal Immigration officials.
The Republican-led legislature passed a bill that outlawed local jurisdictions from passing ordinances that would prevent local police from working with federal immigration authorities or block federal immigration actions and funding, the Associated Press (AP) reported. The bill would also have required locals to cooperate on immigration detainers and to inform federal officials about migrants being held in custody or about to be released from jails and prisons.
Supporters of the bill said the measure was needed to help the federal government
The far-left Guardian newspaper is advising its readers how they can “divest” from everything made in the United States under the “current regime.”
In an article published this weekend, author Jeremy Ettinghausen details how he is trying to boycott all American goods.
While he acknowledges this is a difficult task, he set himself four rules to follow.
These include boycotting all Americans products and services, not making any American friends and stop looking at art (film, music, television) made by U.S. artists.
Rep. Mike Collins (R-GA) crossed the legislative divide between the U.S. House and the U.S. Senate on Friday to present Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) with a new office door plaque that states he represents El Salvador.

It’s not the first time the Georgian legislator has taken a shot at Maryland’s Van Hollen, who has accumulated a lot of time on camera advocating for the return of an alleged MS-13 gang member deported to an El Salvador prison.
ormer White House Chief Medical Advisor Anthony Fauci has been raking in the cash since he retired from the government.
In the year after he “retired,” Fauci pulled in approximately $3.5 million, cashing in on the fame he garnered during the COVID-19 pandemic, according to a financial disclosure obtained by government watchdog Open the Books.
“Dr. Fauci’s assets soared during the worst of the draconian Covid lockdowns while families and small businesses struggled through school closures and lost income. Now it’s clear the cash kept coming during his first year of ‘retirement,’” Open The Books CEO John Hart told the Daily Caller. “He was rubbing elbows with groups like AHIP flanked by

Biased Against Democrats: ‘That’s
What’s Killing Us’(VIDEO) 37 replies
Rep. James Clyburn of South Carolina has said that Democrats have a winning message but that mainstream media is biased against them.
In an appearance on MSNBC, Clyburn explained that Democrats main problem is that they are unable to share their winning message with the rest of the country because the mainstream media is unwilling to amplify it.
He explained.
I think the message that’s coming from the Democratic Party is a good message. The problem we’ve got, honestly, is that we have to depend upon the media to deliver it.
Rep. Jamie Raskin threatened foreign leaders who “facilitated authoritarianism in our country” by currying favor with President Trump on issues like deportation — saying that Democrats will not “look kindly” on his supporters when they “come back to power.”
Referencing El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele specifically, Raskin (D-Md.), 62, suggested that Dems should keep score of foreign leaders who brownnose Trump, 78, during his second term.
“Implicit in it should be the idea that if and when we come back to power — and we will — we are not going to look kindly upon people who … facilitated authoritarianism in our country,” Raskin told “Pod Save America” host Tommy Vietor

The 24-year-old daughter of Minnesota Democrat governor and failed vice-presidential candidate Tim Walz released a TikTok video in which she claimed that if Jesus Christ lived in the United States, the Trump administration would deport him and claim he was part of a deadly gang.
Walz appeared to be making a reference to 29-year-old Kilmar Abrego Garcia, an illegal alien who was deported to El Salvador and is suspected of being a member of the violent MS-13 gang. Democrats have sought for Garcia to be sent back to the United States, claiming that he has been denied due process.
Is it Time to Ignore the Judiciary?

It seems clear to me that the broad scope and speed of the administration’s actions have knocked the sense out of the media, the Democrats and, alas, the judiciary. They cannot seem to process the swift and expansive range of change without making themselves look ridiculous.

I could describe many examples but the easiest most complete one is that of the gang banger, wife beating, human trafficking suspect Salvadorean citizen who illegally crossed out borders and resided here. You know who I mean -- the thug the press describes as a “Maryland Man.”
So the nation is transfixed -- or at least Democrats and the news media --
At 1:00am on Saturday, the Supreme Court of the USA issued an injunction [SEE HERE] blocking President Trump from deporting illegal aliens identified under the Alien Enemies Act. It was/is a bizarre order considering the lower court had not even ruled on the matter; worse yet, the Supreme Court created an imaginary “class” of aliens.
Any illegal alien who happens to also be a gang member, or illegal alien who would ‘smartly’ now claim to be a gang member, is ultimately the beneficiary of a Supreme Court order blocking their removal or deportation. That’s how judicially insane
Senator Chris Van Hollen (D-MD) said Sunday on ABC’s “This Week” that his recent trip to El Salvador was not about defending Kilmar Abrego Garcia but about defending the due process.
Partial transcript as follows:
JONATHAN KARL: As you know, the president himself has been attacking you by pointing out some of the aspects of Abrego Garcia’s record, including the fact that his wife had an order of protection against him in 2021, and — and alleged some pretty serious allegations of abuse, and even that that he had — he had detained her. Are you concerned about your defense of somebody
Pope Francis has died aged 88, the Vatican announced today.
The Pontiff spent his final weeks in hospital with an infection that developed into pneumonia in both lungs.
The Conclave - where cardinals gather in the Sistine Chapel at the Vatican to choose a successor - will not happen for at least 15 days.
Francis just yesterday greeted Catholic faithful who had gathered to see him at St Peter's Square on Easter Sunday. He delivered his 'Urbi et Orbi' benediction from a balcony overlooking the square following mass to mark the high holiday.
After the death of Pope Francis at the age of 88, the world is waiting to see who will succeed him, as the Cardinals gather in Rome for the Papal Conclave. He was the first Latin American Pope, so did that signal a wider change within the Catholic Church and will we now see the first black or Asian Pope? Here are the top contenders to become the next Supreme Pontiff...
The Pentagon is in “total chaos” and Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth is unlikely to remain in his role, according to its former top spokesperson, who painted a scene of dysfunction, backstabbing and continuous missteps at the highest levels of the department.
“The building is in disarray under Hegseth’s leadership,” John Ullyot wrote Sunday in a POLITICO Magazine opinion piece. “The dysfunction is now a major distraction for the president — who deserves better from his senior leadership.”
Ullyot, who resigned from the Pentagon last week, described a department in collapse. He accused Hegseth’s team of “falsehoods”
Monday, on the heels of the news of Pope Francis’ passing, MSNBC “Morning Joe” host Joe Scarborough launched a scathing attack on the so-called “hard-right” inside the Catholic Church.
Scarbourgh claimed the hard-right inside the church “hated” the recently deceased Pope for being “Christ-like.”
“I was just going say many on the hard right inside the church were shocked that this Pope would actually borrow from Jesus Christ and living that simple life, borrow from Jesus Christ, and they were radical words when he said it and it was like it was sounded the shot of a cannon. It just stunned everybody when the Pope said who am I to judge now?
A recent report from an education watchdog has found that colleges and universities across the nation are still operating diversity, equity, and inclusion offices and programs, despite President Donald Trump’s executive order demanding an end to DEI initiatives among any organizations that receive federal funding.
Defending Education, the higher education arm of Parents Defending Education, published a report this week detailing how nearly 400 colleges and universities in the U.S. still operate DEI offices and programs. Only 16 colleges and universities have shuttered their DEI initiatives.
According to the report, 242 universities still operate DEI offices or programs, as do 162 schools or colleges. Defending Education also found

The announcement was made in a brief and carefully worded statement by Fort McCoy’s Senior Commander on Saturday, claiming the suspension was “not related to any misconduct” and that “no further details will be provided at this time.”
The statement reads, “Col. Sheyla Baez Ramirez has been suspended as Garrison Commander at Fort McCoy. This suspension is not related to any misconduct. We have no further details to provide at this time while this matter is under review.”
