Donald Trump has never been one to shy away from a fight, but this time, he’s done more than just rattle the Democrats—he’s practically handed Republicans the keys to a midterm landslide in 2026. The playbook was simple, the execution flawless, and the results devastating for the opposition. Here’s what happened. When Zohran Mamdani, the antisemitic socialist, won the Democratic primary for mayor of New York City, many Democrats were less than thrilled. Last month, the Associated Press reported that his victory “exposed anew the fiery divisions plaguing the Democratic Party as it struggles to repair its brand nearly half a year into Donald Trump’s presidency.” Many progressives cheered

Don't count the ballots before the election. What PDJT 2.0 did is masterful, but there's more than a year between now and Nov. 2026. A lot can happen between then and now. We have to keep opposing DemoRoids and publicize who they are and what they stand for continuously. "Eternal vigilance is the price of freedom."

Don't forget the "Big Red Wave" forecast for 2022; it was more of a Pitiful Puddle.

Would that it were so simple. They are Refublicans for a very good reason. The fub up every opportunity given to them. The DeMS-13 are in utter disarray and have nothing to fear. The Refublicans are always dependable to screw up even certain victory.

And Dems keep tripling down on their losing hand. Endless polling shows that illegal alien deportation is well above 55% in support, and that people want tax breaks. And yet Dems keep saying that we need to let the illegals run loose and increase taxes. Hard to understand.

I agree with Matt (I almost always do). Trump trapped the Dems, and honestly, I don't think they had much choice but to walk right in to the trap.

President Trump is giving MAGA a chance to get rid of some of the vermin in Washington. Those irritants from KY, SC, NC, GA, Tx, etc. It's time to herd them up and move them out, but we have to do it and not depend on Mr. Trump to do it for us.

I follow a guy on Twitter, Matt Von Swol. He’s a self admitted lefty turned conservative after seeing the pitiful response from the biden administration after Helene in his native North Carolina. He daily posts his frustrations with the Republican Party frequently asking if they’re stupid. Why yes Matt they are.

If the Loony Leftists had not attacked Donald Trump right out of the starting gate, he would have completed his first term and retired to enjoy the rest of his life. They thought they were throwing darts at a Wildebeest but he turned out to be a Lion. Big, huge mistake.

Good governing wins when if follows bad governing. After some time passes, good governing is taken for granted and the comfort provided gives liberals time to think up cockamamie schemes. Conservatives are busy working and ignore them. Rinse and repeat.

Trump is portrayed as a master strategist when all he has to do is take positions which are legal, logical, constitutional and within the purview of the Executive Branch--pretty easy. His greatest strength is not withering under liberal attacks.

To ensure a landslide in the mid-terms, one ad will do it. Show the video of “Dollar Store Obama”, aka Hakeem over and over with the caption”. “…do you really want this a Speaker of the House and 3rd in line to the Presidency. I think not!

The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) launched a wave of airstrikes shortly before midnight Sunday, targeting Houthi-controlled seaports in Yemen. The Israeli Air Force is using powerful bombs in its strikes dropping 56 munitions, and striking key targets including a central generator compound at the Port of As-Salif and fuel offloading infrastructure at Ras Issa. Fighter jets struck facilities in Ras Issa, Hudaydah, and As-Salif, following a rare and urgent evacuation warning issued by the IDF in Arabic earlier in the evening. According to reports from Yemen, explosions were heard in Hudaydah and Ras Issa, suggesting that Israeli warplanes hit key logistical and military assets at those locations. The IDF had warned

The tragic news out of Texas continues to get worse as the death toll from a flash flood has risen to 51, including at least 15 children. Over two dozen girls from a summer camp in the area remain unaccounted for, with the search-and-rescue effort continuing in the night. Sadly, the chances of finding more people alive diminish by the hour, and the situation is likely to become even more heartbreaking over the next few days. Having younger children myself, I simply can't fathom what the impacted families are going through. My prayers are with them, and I can continue to hope

My first thought when reading about this was, what were these violent activists planning? Why were they wearing body armor and masks? Here’s what happened: a police officer in Alvarado, Texas, responded to a report about a suspicious individual outside an ICE detention center in the late hours of the Fourth of July, according to authorities. When the officer tried to approach the suspect, an unknown number of assailants started shooting and the officer was struck in the neck. Luckily, he was treated and released by a local hospital, but the incident is nonetheless disturbing:

A video published by a San Antonio television station shows a Texas National Guard Blackhawk helicopter aircrew delivering seven girls rescued from the Independence Day Guadalupe River flood near Kerrville. The helicopter lands near Ingram High School and seven young girls run for safety. At least 23 girls were reported missing from Camp Mystic near Hunt, Texas, in Kerr County. It is not clear if the seven girls rescued by the Texas National Guard are from the list of missing girls. The video shows the TNG Blackhawk landing near Ingraham High School. Seven girls quickly exit the aircraft and run to the shelter.

President Donald Trump signed the GOP’s “big, beautiful” tax and spending package at a White House ceremony on Friday, fulfilling his wish to enact the biggest domestic policy legislation of his term by July 4. Trump triumphantly signed the GOP megabill after months of hard-fought, interparty negotiations that, earlier this week, culminated in contentious House and Senate votes for the legislation. Passing the megabill is a major victory for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) and Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R., S.D.), who had to navigate deep political and ideological differences between different GOP factions within their chambers.

The Hamas terrorist group said Friday it has issued a "positive response" to a U.S.-mediated ceasefire proposal in its war with Israel. In a post to Telegram, Hamas said it "submitted a positive response to the mediators' latest proposal." It added that it was "fully prepared to immediately enter into a round of negotiations on the mechanism for implementing this framework," according to a translation of the post. On Tuesday, President Trump announced that Israel had agreed to a proposal for a two-month ceasefire. At the time, neither Israel nor Hamas confirmed Mr. Trump's statement.

Camp Mystic, a girls-only camp on the Guadalupe River, was evacuated on Friday due to heavy flooding in the west of Kerrville in Kerr County. This comes as multiple deaths were reported in Texas after heavy rain caused flash flooding. Over 10 inches (25 centimeters) of heavy rain fell in just a few hours overnight in central Kerr County, causing flash flooding of the Guadalupe River. The Kerr County sheriff's office confirmed fatalities but did not provide additional details. Kerr County Judge Rob Kelly said that an unknown number of children are missing from summer camps. He further added that at least six people have died.

Last September, in the waning months of the election, the NY Times published a story titled "How the False Story of a Gang ‘Takeover’ in Colorado Reached Trump." Mike Coffman, the conservative Republican mayor of Aurora, Colo., said he was at home on Tuesday night watching the presidential debate and bracing for the worst... “They’re taking over buildings,” Mr. Trump said. “They’re going in violently.” Mr. Coffman was contrite on Thursday as he told that story.

Worse, the paper is trying to protect its crazed readers by hiding their comments. Comments to a Post story, excerpting a juicy new book about how Democrats knew all along that Joe Biden was a terrible candidate and couldn't win the 2024 election, revealed just how untethered to reality this bunch really is. It's as if they'd read the Washington Post and come away believing President Donald Trump was Hitler and couldn't be believed or something. These TDS-afflicted readers will be startled

Zohran Mamdani has admitted listing his race as “black” on a college admission form. He is not black—he is ethnically South Asian because, by his own admission, his ancestors all came from India. It is impossible to know what went through his head when Mamdani lied on his Columbia University admission form, but the most obvious reason for doing so would have been to give himself an advantage over other applicants. If that was the case, it was not just lying; it was cheating. Lying on a college admission form is not a criminal offense, but most would say it is unethical.

ATLANTA — President Donald Trump and other Republicans have long criticized states that take weeks to count their ballots after Election Day. This year has seen a flurry of activity to address it. Part of Trump’s executive order on elections, signed in March but held up by lawsuits, takes aim at one of the main reasons for late vote counts: Many states allow mailed ballots to be counted even if they arrive after Election Day. The U.S. Supreme Court last month said it would consider whether a challenge in Illinois can proceed in a case that is among several Republican-backed

Rescuers scoured a devastated central Texas landscape of mangled trees, overturned cars and muck-filled debris Saturday in an increasingly bleak mission to locate survivors, including 27 girls who have not been seen since their camp was slammed with a wall of water in a historic flash flood. The flooding in Kerr County killed at least 43 people, including 15 children, and at least eight people died in nearby counties. Authorities still have not said how many people were missing beyond the children from Camp Mystic, a Christian summer camp along a river in Kerr County where most of the dead were recovered.

The Black Lives Matter hashtag and slogan was developed in 2013 in reaction to the (lawful self-defense) shooting of Trayvon Martin by George Zimmerman. The following year, 2014, the organization was formalized by self-avowed “trained Marxists” after the (lawful) police shooting of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Mo. Those two shootings falsely were portrayed as racially motivated, while the facts (which we covered in exhaustive detail at the time) proved otherwise. Nonetheless the narrative was set and hating America and being American was necessary to be accepted into Democrat spaces. Even Bernie was not spared the wrath of BLM activists.

One of the fascinating things about following leftists on social media is that they are lemmings. The order goes out that all must put up a specific meme and, suddenly, all do. That’s why my long-ago high school classmates (99% of whom are leftists), suddenly started posting a variation of a meme insisting that Leviticus—a part of the Bible that is so dear to conservative hearts—mandates accepting illegal aliens. Naturally, these leftists, who wouldn’t recognize the Bible if it bit them, are completely wrong. The most popular version of this meme, the one with almost 6 million views, came from Devin Duke:

OPEC+ to boost oil production by 548,000

Eight members of the OPEC+ alliance of oil exporting countries say they will boost production by 548,000 barrels per day in August in a move that could further reduce gas prices this year. The group that includes Saudi Arabia and Russia made the decision at a virtual meeting Saturday. They cited a “steady global economic outlook” and low oil inventories. Oil prices spiked sharply last month during the bloody, 12-day conflict between Israel and Iran but then tumbled back down as the U.S. helped broker a peace deal after dropping bombs on three of Iran’s key nuclear sites.
