Rep. Ilhan Omar’s net worth skyrockets
to as much as $30 million – months after
denying she was a millionaire
Posted By: Moritz55, 9/3/2025 1:43:37 PM
Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.) reported a net worth of up to $30 million in her latest financial disclosure — a document filed just months after the congresswoman dismissed claims she was a millionaire as “ridiculous” and “categorically false.” The disclosure, filed in May, shows the far-left “Squad” lawmaker and her husband, Tim Mynett, experienced a roughly 3,500% increase in net worth last year, compared to 2023. The surge in the couple’s wealth was first reported by the Washington Free Beacon on Monday. The financial gains came from Mynett’s two businesses, a Santa Rosa, Calif.-based winery and a venture capital firm headquartered in Washington, DC.

Dem senator compares American founding

principle to Iran’s theocracy: ‘Extremely troubling' 2 replies
A Senate Democrat compared language from one of the nation’s founding documents to that of Iran during a Senate hearing considering President Donald Trump’s nominees. Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., pushed back against the opening statement of Riley Barnes, who was tapped by Trump to serve as assistant secretary of state for democracy, human rights and labor, during a Senate Foreign Relations hearing Wednesday.
Barnes quoted Secretary of State Marco Rubio in his opening remarks, telling lawmakers on the panel, "We are a nation founded on a powerful principle, and that powerful principle is that all men are created equal, because our rights come from God our Creator
How to Win New Jersey: With New Polling
3 replies
As the 2025 election season enters the “playoffs,” Jack Ciattarelli has earned a realistic chance to win New Jersey and prove it is now a legitimate swing state. Admittedly, that path is narrow, and fighting electoral history is never easy. But here is the roadmap to victory, backed by my latest polling. Before diving into those numbers, allow me to defend New Jersey to the rest of America. Jersey gets a very bad rap and way too much negative media attention. It is not merely the stepbrother to neighboring New York. It is a gorgeous state, truly living up to its “Garden State” moniker.
Over the Labor Day weekend, instead of enjoying the last days of summer with family and friends, Democrats and other Trump-deranged folk had nothing better to do than indulge in sick fantasies about the president’s death.
Hashtags like #trumpisdead and #whereistrump trended on X, with countless TikToks, Google searches and posts saying “TRUMP DIED” garnering millions of likes and views.
This was not a harmless meme or politics as usual. It was seeded by anonymous left-wing social media accounts and amplified by journalists and influencers to create a permission structure to fantasize about Trump’s demise.

There was no Labor Day holiday for Chicago criminals, who murdered nine people and wounded another 51; most (if not all) were black or brown people with names and stories we will never know. Meanwhile, crime is down sharply in Washington, D.C., where three people were shot and wounded, but no one was killed over the weekend.
Rather than learn from Washington, D.C.’s experience, Chicago’s leaders are doubling down to frustrate a proposed federal law enforcement surge here that will make Chicago safer for all.
As the weekend’s carnage unfolded, Mayor Johnson issued an order blocking the Chicago Police from cooperating with any new federal law enforcement effort while
Americans have been told for decades we’re in desperate need of an underclass to handle the work we don’t want to do ourselves.
We were convinced the development of an American caste system, with the “illegal untouchables” assigned the least-attractive duties, is what a prosperous nation like ours deserves.
This narrative’s purveyors swore to us the depth of illegal immigration would remain shallow enough that these people wouldn’t be a competitive workforce for jobs American citizens want to earn a living from.
This deception has created what I call “The Great Illegal-Immigrant Lie.”
Talk show host Charlie Kirk commented on Brandon Johnson's opposition to President Trump sending federal forces to stop crime on the streets of Chicago.
"I think President Trump should call his bluff. I think we should flood the zone. It's already working in Washington, D.C. Chicago is a next perfect test case," Kirk said. "It's time for a federal takeover of Chicago. We've been calling for this for quite some time. I think we're getting closer. I think you're gonna see the president pull the trigger sometime soon."
CHARLIE KIRK: Brandon Johnson might be the most unimpressive mayor in America... He shouldn't be the mayor of Chicago. Chicago deserves so much better
Writing elsewhere last month, I suggested that Donald Trump end the National Endowment for Democracy once and for all. Like most so-called “non-governmental organizations,” the NED is in fact an all-governmental organization. It depends absolutely on a subsidy from the state department, i.e., from the federal government, i.e., from the taxpayer, i.e., from you. The NED began life in the Cold War as a way of projecting “soft power” against our Communist adversaries. But as James Piereson noted in February of this year, the NED has undergone a familiar process of mission creep and moral and political entropy.
Running Out the Clock on Vladimir Putin
7 replies
On July 14th, President Donald Trump set a deadline for Russian President Vladimir Putin to end the war in Ukraine – 50 days. The war’s death toll and the Russian leader’s bad faith negotiating tactics had exceeded the president’s patience threshold and it was time for the Trump Administration to weigh in more heavily than it had thus far. President Trump threatened sanctions and secondary sanctions if Putin didn’t stop the conflict, offering increased military support to Ukraine as well. Putin was on the clock!
Two weeks later, an important change took place when Trump accelerated the timeline. It was that pressure-packed strategy that quickly brought Putin to the negotiating table.
It’s been said that if you’re not a Communist at 20, you have no heart — but if you’re not a capitalist by 30, you have no brain. That’s all too befitting the sad farce of New York’s mayoral race, led by front-runner Zohran Mamdani.
How does Mamdani, as the only major candidate who comes close to the 20-30 age range, measure up?
Mamdani’s smiling, youthful energy attracted many real 20- to 30-year-old New Yorkers, as well as many older 20-somethings-at-heart. His wealth of socialist/Communist ideas — abolishing private property, seizing the means of production, defunding the police, freezing rent, providing free public transportation, establishing government-run stores and more — make many
The European Commission said on Monday that its president, Ursula von der Leyen, was en route to Bulgaria when her plane faced deliberate GPS jamming.
"We can confirm there was GPS jamming but the plane landed safe," said Arianna Podesta, a commission spokeswoman.
Von der Leyen's plane landed in Plovdiv airport and she is continuing her planned tour of EU countries bordering Russia and Belarus, Podesta said.
The EU chief arrived in Bulgaria on Sunday and met with Prime Minister Rosen Zhelyazkov to discuss European security and defense issues.
Europe in the Balance

Almost weekly in the United Kingdom, the Netherlands, France, and Germany, a sensational assault committed by an illegal migrant -- often enjoying some sort of state support or with prior arrests for the same crime -- surfaces.
Until recently, European politicians and the media sought to either ignore such news or accuse those who clamored for tighter borders, more police protection, and stiffer penalties of being "racists" or "xenophobes."
Until recently, that is.
Mass protests are now common in Britain against the Labour Party's open borders policies and generous welfare entitlements for immigrants who arrive illegally and without authentic "political refugee" status.

Reports surfaced this week suggesting that Chelsea Clinton may be considering a run for Congress in New York's 12th District, where longtime Democratic Representative Jerry Nadler has announced his retirement. The reports about Clinton, the daughter of former President Bill Clinton and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, come as Democratic strategists weigh who could consolidate support in a rapidly expanding field. However, she has repeatedly insisted over the years that she has no plans to enter politics. Newsweek reached out to Chelsea Clinton via email for comment. Nadler's retirement marks the end of a three-decade career in Congress, including
Democratic Senator Tim Kaine from Virginia, in a hearing on Wednesday, told the room:”The notion that rights don't come from laws, and don't come from the government, but come from the Creator... That's what the Iranian government believes. So the statement that our rights do not come from our laws or our governments is extremely troubling.” Senator Ted Cruz blasted Senator Kaine's comments.[snip] that radical and dangerous notion in his words, is literally the founding principle upon which the United States of America was created.
During a presser outside Eagan, Minnesota’s Deerwood Elementary Tuesday, Gov. Tim Walz (D) confirmed he will call an emergency gun control session and criticized the number of guns and “type of guns” in circulation in America.
FOX 9 quoted Walz saying, “The thing that makes America unique in terms of shootings is we just have more guns and the wrong types of guns are on the streets.”
He went on to admit that he is going to need some Republicans to cross the aisle and vote with Democrats in order to secure his gun control package.
Walz added, “If Minnesota lets this moment slide and we determine it’s OK
Senate Majority Leader John Thune wants GOP voters to believe that Senate Republicans have no ability to speed up confirmation of the more than 140 Trump nominees languishing in the upper chamber. But that isn’t entirely true.
After returning from Congress’s month-long August vacation, Thune took to the Senate floor on Tuesday to pin the blame for the continued confirmation delay of the president’s appointees squarely on the shoulders of Senate Democrats. Verbally wagging his finger at his leftist colleagues, the majority leader said that “their historic obstruction cannot continue.”

to indict two accused of threatening to

Grand juries in Washington, D.C. refused to indict two people accused of threatening the life of President Donald Trump, prosecutors confirmed to Fox News Digital Tuesday. Officials from the U.S. Attorney’s Office in Washington said both cases involved threats against the president while jurors rejected charges, preventing the cases from moving forward to trial. One case involved Nathalie Rose Jones, who is accused of posting online threats to assassinate Trump and later repeating those threats directly to Secret Service agents during an interview.
A political dynasty may inherit Rep. Jerry Nadler’s (D-NY) soon-to-be empty seat, with former President John F. Kennedy’s grandson, Jack Schlossberg, mulling a run. The 32-year-old Schlossberg told The New York Times that running for Nadler’s seat is “certainly a possibility.”
As Breitbart News reported, Nadler announced he would be retiring after three decades in Congress, saying that the fallout from Joe Biden’s presidency indicated the time has come for generational change within the Democrat Party.
Four candidates and two reserves from the right-wing AfD political party in Germany have dropped dead within 13 days of each other — just before elections, according to reports. The Alternative for Deutschland candidates were set to appear on ballots in North Rhine-Westphalia on September 14. Officials said no foul play is currently suspected in any of their deaths, the BBC reported. Ralph Lange, 66, Wolfgang Klinger, 71, Stefan Berendes, 59, and Wolfgang Seitz, 59, all kicked the bucket within two weeks of each other, the European Conservative reported. Two reserve candidates also died over the same period. German officials stated
It does not matter if individuals become naturalized citizens of the United States, so long as they retain the citizenship from wherever they came, they should not be allowed to serve in the American government.
Either they renounce their foreign citizenship, or stop serving in our government. And, it is more preferable that they self-deport if they feel strongly about keeping the other citizenship. As founder John Jay expressed in 1787, “Permit me to hint, whether it would not be wise and seasonable to provide a strong check to the admission of Foreigners into the administration of our national Government.”
Cracker Barrel suffered a hit to sales after it unveiled its “woke” new logo – which faced heated backlash from customers online and even President Trump.
Starting Aug. 19, the day after the logo was revealed, transactions slowed at Cracker Barrel restaurants, according to debit and credit card data from Bloomberg Second Measure, a data analytics provider.
That sales decline gained steam through Aug. 26 as diners slammed the new logo – a modern, sleek reimagining that erased an illustration of beloved folksy farmer Uncle Herschel. Other full-service restaurants showed mixed results during the same period, in a sign that Cracker Barrel’s sudden downturn was due to brand damage, according to Bloomberg.
A federal appeals court ruled on Tuesday that U.S. President Donald Trump unlawfully invoked the Alien Enemies Act to deport Venezuelans he alleged were part of a criminal gang.
In a 2-1 decision, a three-judge panel of the 5th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals issued a preliminary injunction that blocked the Trump administration from removing a group of Venezuelans under the seldom-used 18th-century law. The Fifth Circuit is the first federal appeals court to rule directly on a March 14 presidential proclamation invoking the 1798 law to justify rapid deportations.
Circuit Judge Leslie Southwick, writing for the two-judge majority, rejected the Trump administration's assertion that the Venezuelan gang Tren de Aragua
Trump’s Alligator Alcatraz will not have to shut down after a circuit court overturned a woke judge’s order.
In August, Obama-appointed U.S. District Judge Kathleen Williams ruled that the alleged “environmental harms” of the famous Florida illegal alien detention facility outweighed the facility’s necessity. But that decision was overruled Thursday as the 11th Circuit Court of Appeals blocked her order to close the illegal alien detention facility in Florida and halt all construction there.
The federal appeals court also blocked Williams from proceeding with the case until Florida’s appeal is complete. This is a big win not only for the Trump administration and the state government in Florida,
Five Republicans in the House joined Democrats Wednesday to block an effort to censure Rep. LaMonica McIver, D-N.J., over a confrontation with immigration officers in her district.
Rep. Clay Higgins, R-La., sponsored a resolution that would have condemned McIver’s actions in May and removed her from her position on the House Homeland Security Committee. The House voted 215-207 to table the measure, with Republican Reps. Don Bacon and Mike Flood of Nebraska, Dave Joyce and Mike Turner of Ohio, and David Valadao of California voting against the censure along with all Democrats. Rep. Andrew Garbarino, R-N.Y., and Rep. Nathaniel Moran, R-Texas, voted present.
