Erika Kirk’s Response to Sinclair Reaching
Out Over Kimmel’s Vile Comments Speaks Volumes
Posted By: Mercedes44, 11/5/2025 6:43:12 AM
Erika Kirk, widow of slain Turning Point USA co-founder Charlie Kirk, has revealed that Sinclair Broadcast Group reached out to her after ABC's late-night host Jimmy Kimmel made some truly vile comments about the assassination of her husband, and its local affiliates faced a major backlash. In a clip from an upcoming Fox News interview with Jesse Watters, Erika discussed contact she had with a representative from the media company, asking if she wanted an apology from Kimmel. It came following the late-night host's reaction on September 15 to the arrest of Kirk's suspected killer, who authorities said was strongly influenced -

Don’t expect 1st Deputy Mayor-designate Dean Fuleihan to rein in an ounce of Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani worst urges: He imposed no such restraint when he worked for Bill de Blasio.
Plus, Zoh’s pick for chief of staff, his longtime right hand Elle Bisgaard-Church, will be a voice of the same unreason that’s guided Mamdani’s entire political career to date.
The problem being that an assemblyman’s failings easily pass without notice, whereas 8 million New Yorkers suffer when a mayor screws up.
Those with a will to pull wool over their eyes will take solace in Fuleihan non-disastrous service as a top aide to then-Speaker Shelly Silver and other legislative poohbahs,
It’s been over 15 years since Democrats passed Obamacare under the promise that it would make healthcare affordable. Americans were supposed to save money, keep their doctors, and finally get a system that worked for them instead of the big insurance companies.Today, those promises look like a sick joke.
A recent post shared by our sister site Twitchy highlights how the Obamacare boondoggle really works, and why it doesn’t actually work for the people. Instead, it was built to enrich the healthcare industry, and the numbers prove it. Let me give you a rundown of how it works, if you can stomach learning how the sausage is made.
The election of socialist Zorhan Mamdani as mayor is unleashing a toxic sludge of unsavory characters poised to seize seats of prestige at City Hall.
These real powers behind the throne are putting the mayor-elect on notice: Toe the Jew- and America-hating line, or we’ll make life very difficult.
At Mamdani’s official swearing-in, set for just after midnight on New Year’s Day, it’s we in the cheap seats who are going to suffer hangovers. He said this would mark a new era of free stuff for everyone. Free buses. Free groceries. Free child care. More prostitutes.
The wheels are coming off the socialist bus.
Gov. Kathy Hochul slammed the brakes on supporting Zohran Mamdani’s $700 million call for free city buses — casting doubt that one of the far-left mayor-elect’s signature campaign promises has a smooth road ahead.
Hochul, speaking during a press conference at the SOMOS political retreat in Puerto Rico on Saturday, argued she has already put vast sums of money into the perpetually cash-strapped MTA for major projects. “We’re spending a lot of money, so I cannot set forth a plan right now that takes money out of a system that relies on the fares of the buses and the subways,” she said.
A disastrous shutdown for Democrats got worse Sunday when Senate Democrats folded on government funding while receiving nothing of substance in return.
Eight Senate Democrats voted with 42 Republicans Sunday night on a procedural vote to allow a continuing resolution (CR) funding the government to advance. The motion passed 60 to 40, without a single vote to spare, and will enable a future vote on a clean continuing resolution through January 30, 2026, packaged with three relatively non-controversial appropriations bills extending through the fiscal year: agriculture, military construction-Veterans Affairs, and legislative branch.
Lining Up For Gas In California

California has the trendiest, and most foolish, energy policies in the U.S. The result is a return to the early ’70s, when drivers lined up around the block, hoping and praying the gasoline wouldn’t run out before they got to the pumps.
“California’s oil industry now sits at the precipice of complete collapse,” says Edward Ring, director of water and energy policy at the California Policy Center, “and if that happens, more imports will not prevent lines at the pumps.”
How could California, which has the sixth most proved crude reserves in the country, be looking over the edge of a gasoline crisis?
A group of shutdown-weary Democratic senators voted with Republicans Sunday night to advance a legislative vehicle to reopen the federal government and end the 40-day shutdown that has left tens of thousands of workers furloughed and caused chaos at the nation’s airports.
The Senate voted 60-40 to proceed to a House-passed continuing resolution to reopen the government, taking a big first step toward ending the shutdown after a group of centrist Democrats negotiated a funding deal with Senate Republican colleagues and the White House.
The head of the BBC and the British broadcaster’s top news executive both resigned Sunday after criticism of the way the organization edited a speech by U.S. President Donald Trump.
The BBC said Director-General Tim Davie and news CEO Deborah Turness had both decided to leave the corporation.
Britain’s publicly funded national broadcaster has been criticized for editing a speech Trump made on Jan. 6, 2021, before protesters attacked the Capitol in Washington.
Critics said the way the speech was edited for a BBC documentary last year was misleading and cut out a section where Trump said he wanted supporters to demonstrate peacefully.
The Senate advanced a bipartisan deal late Sunday to end the record-breaking government shutdown, overcoming the biggest procedural hang-up that has been used to keep Uncle Sam’s lights off for the past 40 days.
In a 60-40 vote — with eight Democratic-leaning senators joining Republicans — the Senate invoked cloture to break the filibuster and move forward with a bipartisan spending patch to fund the government through Jan. 30, 2026, as well as a “minibus” package that will fully restore food stamp benefits.

President Trump granted pardons for 77 individuals tied to a plot to overturn the 2020 presidential election – including his close allies Rudy Giuliani, Sidney Powell, and Kenneth Chesebro, a Justice Department attorney announced late Sunday night.
The full list of those pardoned, each of the president’s co-defendants who faced charges related to the 2020 “fake electors” plot, was posted to X just before 11 p.m. by Trump’s “clemency czar” attorney Ed Martin.Martin shared the pardon document in a reply to his May 26, 2025 post that read “No MAGA left behind.”
There is a problem here in the United States, and that's if liberty were to fall here, there's nowhere to go. There's no escape route for those of us who don't want the government to take everything from us, up to and including our guns, which is why so many of us have a line in the sand that cannot be crossed. And I don't see there being anywhere to go anytime soon. Too many other nations that are supposedly free really aren't, and the trend internationally is for more regulation of everything and a complete and total lack of gun rights.
The Heritage Foundation’s Meltdown
10 replies
Is there anything left to say about the Heritage Foundation’s pre-Halloween melodrama? It was quite a scary show. I am confident that when Kevin Roberts, president of that venerable bastion of conservatism, got outside his morning egg on October 30, he had no inkling that his two-minute and thirty-nine-second video clip would precipitate a seismic detonation that would rock the foundation and monopolize the news cycle for days.
The main purpose of the video, Roberts said, was to reaffirm that the commentator Tucker Carlson “remains and always will be a close friend of the Heritage Foundation.” This came on the heels of Carlson’s long interview with Nick Fuentes, the obnoxious twenty-seven-year-old

Mark Wolf, a Massachusetts-based Reagan-appointed federal judge announced late Friday evening that he is resigning from the bench early so he can publicly trash President Trump.
“In 1985, President Ronald Reagan appointed me as a federal judge. I was 38 years old. At the time, I looked forward to serving for the rest of my life. However, I resigned Friday, relinquishing that lifetime appointment and giving up the opportunity for public service that I have loved,” Wolf wrote in an op-ed for The Atlantic.
Wolf said he’s resigning so he can publicly attack President Trump for ‘targeting his adversaries.’
“My reason is simple: I no longer can bear to be restrained by what
It’s no coincidence that multimillionaire Michelle Obama is on a self-pity jag as she promotes her latest expensive coffee table memoir as her husband’s Democratic Party succumbs to its socialist fringe.
You see it everywhere. Democratic Marie Antoinettes moaning about their plight and the ingratitude of the serfs as the revolution devours their dominion.
For the former first lady, a week of softball interviews for her new $50 tome, “The Look,” has been dominated by bizarre complaints about her time in the White House with President Barack Obama. She is rewriting history to claim bitterly that, as the first black first couple, “we didn’t get the grace that I think some other

Christine Pelosi, daughter of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, is officially entering politics. The Democratic Party activist and far-left attorney told KQED-TV Monday that she will run for San Francisco’s state Senate seat in 2028. Her announcement followed the passage of Proposition 50, a measure she campaigned for, which she said helped spark her decision to run. Because our rights are under attack, because having just come out [of] Prop. 50, organizing around the state with working families and swing voters and swing districts and reaching out across every corner of San Francisco, I know how excited and enthused people are to participate
It's Time to Call Out Tucker Carlson

After doing my best to ignore the latest Tucker Carlson saga, I find I must say something.
"Go the hell away," for starters.
I'd said pretty much everything I thought I'd ever need to say about Carlson early last year, following his context-free interview with Palestinian Authority propagandist Reverend Munther Isaac. So when the current brouhaha broke out over his kid-glove treatment of neo-Nazi Nick Fuentes, I did my best to ignore it. Yes, even though Fuentes is the guy who rants that "Jews are running society" and that women and blacks should be silenced or imprisoned.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) referred to Dr. Mehmet Oz as a "rando" and slammed the former television doctor as the Senate moves closer to ending the government shutdown.Jeffries was responding to a reporter's question about Affordable Care Act subsidies and Dr. Oz's comments when the Democratic lawmaker responded.
"That's like the most random way to start a question on a serious topic. Nobody who's serious in this country takes Dr. Oz seriously. No one. And I mean, it's shocking that the guy even was confirmed, but this is part of the reality of Republicans here in the House and over in the Senate.

Why Are Things Unaffordable?
16 replies
With the election of Zohran Mamdani as Mayor of New York, much conversation has been made of his appeal to “affordability.”
As I’ve written previously, this is a noble conversation, but one that has been dishonestly framed (by Democrats and media) to date. [snip]
First let’s look at the role that government has already played and its effect on affordability. What areas in the economy have seen the greatest increase in costs for the consumer? Education, housing, healthcare, and food. ronically, these are all areas of the economy that the government has interjected itself in the form of subsidies, regulations, government-backed loans, and transfer payments.
As awful as the mayoral election outcome was for sensible New Yorkers, misguided Washington Republicans plan to use the results as a club to further punish the city.
If they succeed in hitting Gotham with enormous financial penalties for electing socialist radical Zohran Mamdani, the GOP wackos will end up penalizing all 8 million New Yorkers, including the 1 million who rejected Mamdani to vote for other candidates.
The efforts also could turn Mamdani into a martyr, which would boost his popularity and inspire far-leftist copycat candidates across America.
Another unintended consequence of the daffy congressional effort could be the death of the election chances of one of their own.
After rejecting a $25 million deal with ICE, Dallas Police Chief Daniel Comeaux claimed the partnership would bring “no value at all.”
Comeaux defended his decision against partnering with ICE in a joint hearing of the Dallas Public Safety Committee and Government Efficiency Committee on November 6.
As The Dallas Express reported, Comeaux recently rejected a $25 million partnership with ICE under the 287(g) program, which gives funding and immigration authority to local police.
“Can you explain to me if there would be any value for us to be involved in this 287(g) program?” asked Councilman Bill Roth.
“I see no value at all for us to be involved in this program,” Comeaux replied.
On Sunday’s “Face the Nation” on CBS, Gov.-elect Abigail Spanberger (D-VA) said she will defend her state’s universities against the Trump administration’s attacks.
Partial transcript as follows:
MARGARET BRENNAN: Just a few days ago, Cornell University reached a $60 million deal with the Trump administration in order to see their federal funding restored. This is the fifth such deal since the administration began this pressure campaign on universities. I know you went to University of Virginia, as did I, and must be following that. UVA cut deals with the government, including kicking out the president of the school. You called that extortion. But now, as governor, are you going to have

regime to cut off water to Tehran, consider evacuation 14 replies
Iran is set to turn off the water in several regions, including Tehran — as the country falls into the grips of its worst drought in decades.
The Islamic Republic announced it would be shutting off its water supply on Saturday night due to the mounting crisis which will see the capital dry up — with officials contemplating evacuating it, Haaretz reported.
“We are forced to cut off water supply to citizens on some evenings so that reservoirs can refill,” Energy Minister Abbas Alibadi said on state television Saturday. Alibadi suggested that Iranians install pumps to compensate for the lack of pressure and supply gaps.
