Dem lawmakers say their voters are threatening
'blood' and 'violence' over inability
to hinder Trump: report
Posted By: JunkYardDog, 7/7/2025 12:57:35 PM
Democratic lawmakers say their voters are enraged at the lack of ability to counter President Donald Trump's agenda, with some saying they could resort to "violence," Axios reported Monday. The outlet says it spoke to over two dozen House Democrats to measure the temperature of the Democratic base. What it found was red-hot anger and a burgeoning desire to circumvent the rule of law, where explanations that Democrats simply don't hold enough power in Washington fall on deaf ears. "We've got people who are desperately wanting us to do something... no matter what we say, they want [more]," Rep. Brad Schneider, D-Ill., told the outlet.

For failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris, America is a pretty miserable place.
So on the Fourth of July, she offered the country her condolences, sort of:: This Fourth of July, I am taking a moment to reflect. Things are hard right now. They are probably going to get worse before they get better.
But I love our country — and when you love something, you fight for it. Together, we will continue to fight for the ideals of our nation.
Martha’s Vineyard residents are unhappy with the Trump administration deporting illegal immigrants from their liberal enclave, The Washington Post reported this week.
The community has been reeling since Immigrations and Customs Enforcement officers arrested dozens of illegal immigrants in a recent raid, according to the report.
"It’s bullying," one Martha’s Vineyard resident, Charlie Giordano, told the Post. "I don’t know how many are illegal or legal, I don’t give a s---. But I do care about how they’re treated.

Maine Gov. Janet Mills has responded to the lawsuit that has been filed against her state by the U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) for letting trans athletes compete in girls' sports.
Mills' office released a statement on Wednesday, hours after the lawsuit was announced by Attorney General Pam Bondi at a morning press conference.
The statement references a ruling by a federal judge last Friday to stop the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) from freezing funding to the state over the issue and investigations by President Donald Trump's Department of Education and Department of Health and Human Services over the last seven weeks.

A federal appellate court declined to issue a stay on a lower court's orders in a suit challenging the Trump administration's authority to deport Venezuelan nationals via a 1798 wartime law.
In a 2-1 decision Wednesday, a three-judge panel sided with the plaintiffs in the suit, further blocking the Trump administration's ability to move forward with its deportation agenda.

Everyone talks about transparency.
The Democrats don’t like it. They’re all about secrecy and censorship.
The right believes in transparency but caves when challenged. So the American people are often left in the dark about most things governmental and are not aware of the rampant duplicity that undergirds everything remotely political.
Obviously, the Democrats’ strategy has been well-planned with the confidence that higher courts, especially the SCOTUS, would not interfere with their lawfare.
Chief Justice Roberts has reason to be ashamed of Judge James "Jeb" Boasberg; he appointed him to the FISA court.
First he was a "knucklehead" now he's a "smarta--." Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, a Democrat, said Saturday that he was making a joke when he made a comment last week mocking Tesla and its CEO Elon Musk for the company's recent downward trend in the stock market. Walz attempted to clarify his comments during a town hall in Rochester, Minnesota. "This guy bugs me in a way that’s probably unhealthy," Walz said, referring to Musk.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., says he will vote to keep the government open, warning that a shutdown has worse consequences for Americans and would only empower President Trump and Elon Musk further.
"I believe it is my job to make the best choice for the country to minimize the harms to the American people. Therefore, I will vote to keep the government open and not shut it down," Schumer said while speaking on the Senate floor on Thursday.
"Are you not going to comply with that?" Trump asked Mills."I'm complying with state and federal laws," she responded, before Trump said "Well, we are the federal law" and "you better do it, you better do it because you're not going to get any federal funding at all if you don't." "And by the way, your population, even though it's somewhat liberal, although I did very well there, your population doesn't want men playing in women's sports, so you better comply because otherwise you're not getting any federal funding," Trump continued.
"We'll see you in court," Mills responded.
Judge Juan Merchan on Friday granted President-elect Donald Trump's request to file a motion to dismiss the charges in New York v. Trump and removed the sentencing date for the president-elect from the schedule.
Merchan said Trump attorneys have until Dec. 2 to file their motion for dismissal. Merchan said Bragg has until Dec. 9 to respond.
Merchan also confirmed the stay in sentencing for Trump, which was requested by both Trump's and Bragg's attorneys. The sentencing was scheduled for Nov. 26, but on Friday, Merchan said that date "is adjourned."
Massachusetts Democratic Gov. Maura Healey says that her state police will "absolutely not" be cooperating with the expected mass deportation effort by the incoming Trump administration, warning that she will use "every tool in the toolbox" to "protect" residents in the blue state.
President Biden and former President Donald Trump on Wednesday made their plans to officially debate, but the offer from the Biden team came with several strings attached. Trump gave Biden an open invitation to debate anytime, anywhere, and Biden rose to the challenge, telling Trump to "make my day" in a heavily edited video on social media. Alongside Biden's announcement came a letter from his campaign to the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), and that letter revealed a few critical limits that Biden's team was placing on any debate between him and Trump.

The government's Epstein problem
37 replies
None of us ever would have heard of Jeffrey Epstein had the government not brought him up. It was the government that brought charges against him. The government told us that he was “the most prolific child sex trafficker in history.” The government said he was “with intelligence.” The government cut him a sweetheart deal. The government was taken to court by “John Doe” over what the government called “client lists.” The government courts made a ruling about the “client lists” not being released. Senator Dick Durbin blocked the release of the “client list” in the legislative branch of the government. The government said it had “client lists” on its desk.

Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) said Tuesday on CNN’s “News Central” that Congress has a “responsibility” to look into whether the Trump administration’s cuts to the National Weather Service affected the amount of deviation of the deadly central Texas floods.
Co-host Kate Bolduan said, “To is these deadly floods in Texas as these the search continues for the missing there are big questions being raised about the warnings that happened and the impacts also of cuts to — that the Trump administration had made to the National Weather Service.”

Jeffrey Epstein did not maintain a “client list,” the Justice Department acknowledged Monday as it said no more files related to the wealthy financier’s sex trafficking investigation would be made public despite promises from Attorney General Pam Bondi that had raised the expectations of conservative influencers and conspiracy theorists.The acknowledgment that the well-connected Epstein did not have a list of clients to whom underage girls were trafficked represents a public walk-back of a theory that the Trump administration had helped promote, with Bondi suggesting in a Fox News interview earlier this year that such a document was “sitting on my desk” for review.
As lawmakers begin crafting the 12 annual appropriations bills to fund the federal government in fiscal year 2026, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., has implied that his party will refuse to cooperate in the process if Republicans revoke billions in funding from previous years. The Senate is set to vote on a rescissions package that narrowly passed the House in June and would cancel already appropriated federal funds for public broadcasting and some foreign aid programs.
Republicans only need a majority vote for the legislation to pass. The Rescissions Act of 2025, compiled by the Office of Management and Budget, requests the cancellation of federal spending deemed wasteful
The influencer 4xtra, who co-hosts the No Jumper podcast, asked his fanbase who wants to get blown up in a video that went viral on social media. He was seen carrying some unlit fireworks in the clip.
"Who wants to get blown up today," he said in the video.
"I’m going to blow your a– up! I’m blowing somebody up today.”
4Xtra was left injured following the fireworks accident, his sister Emily said in a GoFundMe page that has since been created. Emily paid tribute to her brother, whose real name is Resan.
“Resan is someone who lights up every room with his humor and energy,” she said.

The answer is this: The consumers of these goods and services are often relatively poor. Poor people are bad at both making money and spending money. They make too little of it and they spend too much of it – on things that are wasteful or even harmful to themselves and to society. Much of what they spend is on credit cards with 22% interest rates.
It’s no secret that Joe Biden nominated Ketanji Brown Jackson to serve on the United States Supreme Court because she is a black woman.* In other words, she was not chosen for her judicial acumen, but for her political identity. That goes a long way to explaining the absolutely lunatic dissent she issued to a Supreme Court order. That order stayed a California district court judge’s ruling blocking President Trump from ordering agency heads to produce plans for possible “Reductions in Force.”
What happened to the Jeffrey Epstein case? It’s devolved into the unfinished horse meme. We were promised transparency, accountability, and the whole truth regarding the notorious sexual predator, alleged sex trafficker, and well-connected New York financier. Epstein was well acquainted with the world’s wealthy and influential families. In the summer of 2019, federal agents arrested him on sex trafficking charges. On August 10, 2019, he was found dead in his cell. [snip] It’s a perpetual cycle of being served a big plate of nothing, that started embarrassingly for the new Justice Department

to Burn It to the Ground Right Before Release 19 replies
Another "Superman" movie is about to be released . . . At the head of the endeavor is director James Gunn, perhaps best known for his work on the "Guardians of the Galaxy" franchise . . . Which makes his decision to burn all the goodwill around his film to the ground right before its release a real headscratcher. During a recent interview with The Times of London, Gunn stated his movie is "about politics," citing the illegal immigration situation in the United States, and his answer to anyone who doesn't like that is "screw them."
Remember this moment in 2019 when Democrats were asked to raise their hands if they supported treating border crossing as a civil issue aka decriminalize the border. Nearly ever hand went up. In retrospect, some Democrats are realizing this may have been a big mistake.
Six years later, the party remains haunted by that tableau. It stands both as a vivid demonstration of a leftward policy shift on immigration that many prominent Democratic lawmakers and strategists now say they deeply regret, and as a marker of how sharply the country was moving in the other direction.

A group of left-wing militants is facing charges after ambushing officers outside of an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility on July 4, the latest attack in what’s fast becoming a trend of leftist violence towards federal agents.
The Justice Department filed a complaint Monday against ten defendants for organizing the ambush at an ICE facility in Alvarado, Texas on the Fourth of July. Each defendant is being charged with three counts of attempted murder of a federal officer and three counts of discharging a firearm
