Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) and Attorney General Pam Bondi went head-to-head with Senate Judiciary Chairman Dick Durbin (D-IL), exposing, once again, his refusal to release the Epstein flight logs that could implicate some of the world’s most powerful elites. Bondi, appearing before the Senate Judiciary Committee, wasted no time calling out Durbin’s obstruction and hypocrisy, and Blackburn backed her up. Durbin accused Bondi of misleading the public by claiming she had access to the Epstein client files. But Bondi fired back, clarifying her statement.

How can Durbin continue to block the subpoena? He's no longer committee chairman.

Umm. If there was anything about PDT hanging out with Epstein, the FJB administration would have spouted it every day ...and every night.

"Sometimes people don't want to hear the truth because they don't want their illusions destroyed." Friedrich Nietzsche The typical dim voter is desperate to believe conservatives are evil Truism - if you want to anger a conservative, tell them a lie.. If you want to anger a progressive democrat, tell them the truth. I know as too many of my kin are happily ignorant and angry democrats with hands over their eyes and their ears but with megaphones for their mouths.

Federal government shutdown grinds into
a second week, but quiet talks emerging

Tours at the Capitol have come to a standstill. The House is keeping its doors closed, while the Senate is stuck in a loop of failed votes on a rejected plan to reopen the government. President Donald Trump is threatening to mass fire federal workers and refuse back pay for the rest. As the government shutdown enters a second week, there’s no discernible endgame in sight. “You have to negotiate,” Sen. Bernie Sanders, the independent from Vermont, argued late into the evening on the Senate floor. “That’s the way it works.”

In response to a Federalist inquiry, not a single Democrat U.S. Senator called for the Virginia Democrat attorney general candidate Jay Jones to drop out of the race in light of his text messages fantasizing about assassinating Republican Todd Gilbert. “Put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time,” Jones wrote, after running a hypothetical about how to allocate two bullets among Gilbert, Hitler, and Pol Pot. The 2022 text messages were first reported by National Review on Friday. According to a source cited by the outlet, Jones also “suggested he wished Gilbert’s wife could watch her own child die-

The FBI secretly obtained the phone records of nine Republican members of Congress, including eight sitting senators, under the Biden administration as part of its “Arctic Frost” investigation of 2020 election meddling, a bombshell document revealed. Specific reasons for the FBI’s espionage of the sitting lawmakers are not clear. The document revealing the spy effort was recently turned over to lawmakers and Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) released it to the public on Monday. “Based on the evidence to-date, Arctic Frost and related weaponization by federal law enforcement under Biden was arguably worse than Watergate,” Grassley said in a statement.

In New Jersey, the GOP is sensing a rare opening in the gubernatorial race, a state long considered a Democratic stronghold. Democratic candidate Mikie Sherrill, a former Navy helicopter pilot, is under renewed scrutiny for her role in a 1994 Naval Academy cheating scandal, an episode she had previously downplayed. Republican congressmen are now demanding the release of her military records to shed light on the full extent of her involvement.That controversy has quickly cast a shadow over Sherrill’s campaign, and recent polling reflects a tightening race with Republican Jack Ciattarelli.

The Democrat candidate for Virginia Attorney General Jay Jones fantasized about murdering Republicans in newly released text messages. Despite the egregious messages — Democrats are doubling down on their support for Jones. In a 2022 exchange with Republican House Delegate Carrie Coyner, Jones said it would be a “good thing” if the children of his former colleague, Republican House Speaker Todd Gilbert, would die.“Three people, two bullets. Gilbert, Hitler, and Pol Pot. Gilbert gets two bullets to the head. Spoiler: put Gilbert in the crew with the two worst people you know and he receives both bullets every time,”
The cognitive dissonance of affluent American blacks 4 replies
Posted by 4250Luis 10/6/2025 8:20:34 AM Post Reply
One of the things that constantly stuns me about the American left is the cognitive dissonance. We live in the most affluent, safe, healthy, well-fed, well-lit, comfortable society in the world, but for leftists, it’s always the year 536 AD for the comforts of life, and the 1950s when it comes to race and abortion. It’s not the “best of times and the worst of times.” It’s just the worst of times, especially in America and especially if you’re black. America abolished slavery in 1865. America began the process of culturally eradicating Jim Crow in the 1950s and politically eradicated it in 1964.
The hidden cost to Dem benefits for migrants

As the government shutdown continues, the media seems fixated on one Republican talking point: That the Democrats want health- care benefits for illegal immigrants. Of course they do. Part of the way Democrats try to claim otherwise is semantics. For example, President Joe Biden ballooned the number of illegal immigrants with Temporary Protected Status from 400,000 to 1.2 million during his term. TPS-holders have no legal right to live here, but the government has promised not to deport them until their home country resolves what is supposed to be a major destabilizing condition — a natural disaster, for example, although past administrations have tended to grant and renew TPS for far less.

Bravo, Virginia GOP, bravo. It is so rare to see such a perfectly executed “October Surprise” in politics as just happened in the Commonwealth of Virginia. The term “October Surprise” describes an unexpected political disaster in the twilight hours of the campaign. Sometimes they are intentionally positioned by political opponents to impact voters, often days before they head to the polls. They aren’t always successful, but they’ve become a staple of modern politics. In the 2025 Virginia elections, there are three statewide offices up for grabs.
When Equal Treatment Feels like Discrimination 4 replies
Posted by 4250Luis 10/5/2025 5:28:14 AM Post Reply
Dr. Thomas Sowell famously and rightly remarked when people get used to preferential treatment, equal treatment seems like discrimination. The counter-programming from secretary of War Pete Hegseth during his September 30 Quantico speech to top military brass doubtless received a frosty reception from at least some of the high-ranking commissioned officers who had grown accustomed to preferential treatment. Consider the psychological mindset of a DIE-privileged general, perhaps someone like Hegseth’s predecessor (the race- and climate-obsessed Gen. Lloyd Austin) or Gen. C.Q. Brown, Jr., formerly of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, a vocal supporter of Black Lives Matter.

Actress "Hanoi" Jane Fonda blew a gasket this week during an appearance on CNN, where she went off on Democrat Party leaders for being "not good enough" while she spewed the same tired "Trump is authoritarian" nonsense she and the other left-wing "evangelists" in Hollywoke keep pushing. Fonda was promoting the relaunch of her Committee for the First Amendment. Hollywood liberals birthed the organization during the Cold War in the late 1940s to fight the blacklisting that arose during the McCarthy era. A liberal started a committee to allegedly promote the First Amendment even though someone on her side of the political divide -

The back-and-forth took place during a Senate Judiciary Committee oversight hearing with Bondi on Tuesday.(snip)That prompted an indignant response from Bondi, who immediately pivoted to accusing Blumenthal of lying about his military record. “Sen. Blumenthal, I cannot believe that you would accuse me of impropriety when you lied about your military service. You lied, you admitted you lied to be elected a U.S. senator,” she said, speaking over Blumenthal.

China is actively preparing for war against the United States. The signs are obvious and ominous. During the Biden regime, we saw the first signs of it. The Chinese began a campaign of "elite capture" in the Western Pacific, quietly buying legislators until they controlled the parliaments of at least eight nations and then negotiating defense agreements, that, in the case of the Solomon Islands, gives China the right to deploy troops there to put down civil unrest; see China Seeks to Buy Eight Pacific Island Nations While Joe Biden and His State Department Are Comatose – RedState.

The Virginia Fraternal Order of Police is demanding that embattled Democratic attorney general hopeful Jay Jones exit the race “immediately” in light of the recently surfaced text messages showing him fantasizing about the former state House speaker getting shot in the head. Jones’ disturbing text messages in 2022 had surfaced late last week in a bombshell story, but the AG hopeful has remained in the race and local Democrats have stood by him. “This conduct has no place in our society or democracy, especially from an elected official who is running to be the top prosecutor in Virginia,” the Old Dominion State’s FOP wrote in a letter to Jones on Monday.

The Trump administration's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention put the nail in the coffin of one-size-fits-all COVID-19 vaccine recommendations Monday, updating its children and adult vaccination schedules to encourage physicians, nurses and pharmacists to discuss harms and benefits from vaccination specific to each patient before they get jabbed. Parents may get an incomplete picture from healthcare providers who don't look too closely at federally funded research that promotes indiscriminate COVID jabs for kids, though. A research consortium buried a startling finding in its peer-reviewed study on biologically elusive "long COVID" and reinfection in patients under 21, published in a prestigious U.K. journal:

The most destructive inferno in Los Angeles history, which charred a devastating path through Pacific Palisades and Malibu in early January, was a rekindling fire that an Uber driver intentionally set days earlier near a popular hiking area, federal investigators alleged. Authorities on Wednesday also announced the arrest of 29-year-old Jonathan Rinderknecht, who is suspected of setting the initial fire on New Year’s Eve. Rinderknecht, of Florida, was charged with maliciously starting what eventually became the Palisades fire. Among the evidence that was collected from his digital devices was an image he generated on ChatGPT depicting a burning city, said U.S. Attorney Bill Essayli.

Joe Biden’s presidency was a multi-trillion dollar criminal conspiracy that shred every “norm,” violated nearly every right, and abused any power it could to punish its political opponents. The Trump administration’s prosecutions of Team Biden’s abuses of power may be the healthiest development for the rule of law since the end of Jim Crow. This is a story Republicans should tell with pride — and must tell incessantly, or the next Democrat administration will make Biden’s four years look like Camelot under Arthur.

A Dallas-based auto lender built on giving car loans to illegals has just gone belly up, and it’s dragging Wall Street down with it. Tricolor Holdings was once hailed by the US Treasury as a “community development” success story. Now, they’ve just filed for bankruptcy as fraud allegations and a full-blown federal investigation overtake them. The company, which sold overpriced used cars to illegals and wrapped the scheme in a feel-good “social lending” label, is leaving major US banks like JPMorgan, Barclays, and Fifth Third staring at massive losses.
