3 Questions for Democrats After 2025 Elections

Original Article

Posted By: earlybird, 11/6/2025 12:10:02 PM

Democrats won decisive victories in the 2025 elections, including a mayoral win in New York City and governorships in New Jersey and Virginia. Democrats also did well in races at the state and local levels. Despite the victory, their path forward remains no clearer than before, according to some political analysts. That’s because the top Democratic winners presented vastly different governing strategies to voters.

Comments:

Mamdani, Stanberger, Sherrill: Affordability. Gender ideology Israel. Some very thought-filled analysis.

Alhough they are mushy libs, the two female libs are not rabid Marxists like Mamdani. They are saying now that he is the new "face of the Democrat Party" - how far will that fly and how will the other wannabes like Gavin and Kemala feel about that? He kind of moves AOC and Bernie off to the side. This should be interesting. His pre-election day charisma was a fake. He's just a nasty little Commie mosquito who thinks the way to go is against PDJT. Let's see how he gets (whatever?) done.

Re rhe Dem's "Affodaility" mantra, Stanberher says she'll be trying to get pharma to lower drug prices. Didn't PDJT already work on this? Would she really have any clout?

Sherrill and Spanberger either stared mutely or bafflegabbed when pressed on the more controversial Democrat policies while Mamdani was proudly in our faces. Otherwise they'll all implement as much of the left Democrat program as they can get away with.

The U.S. Supreme Court on Nov. 6 allowed the Trump administration to enforce its policy requiring the sex designation on a U.S. passport to be consistent with the passport holder’s sex at birth. The court’s decision in Trump v. Orr took the form of an unsigned order without comment. Three justices—Ketanji Brown Jackson, Elena Kagan, and Sonia Sotomayor—dissented from the new ruling.

In December of 2016, President Obama turned to Director of National Intelligence James Clapper and CIA Director John Brennan with a request to change the Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) and blame the Russians for election interference in the prior presidential election. Brennan gave the task of assembling the fraudulent intel to a CIA analyst named Julia Gurganus.Subsequently, inside the CIA the National Intelligence Council (NIC) and the Directorate of Analysis began working on a pretext that would create the impression for the misleading Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) as demanded by Obama, Clapper and Brennan; ultimately it was constructed by Julia Gurganus.

New York City didn’t wake up one morning and elect a foreign Marxist mayor by accident. That didn’t “just happen.” It’s the final act of a political show that’s been running for years. And it wasn’t just the dastardly Dems who helped produce it. None of this could’ve happened without Paul Ryan and Mitch McConnell—the “super polite” Republican leaders who smiled, stalled, and sabotaged Trump’s legal immigration reforms during his first term, at a time when it would’ve mattered most and could have actually changed the course of history.Had the two globalist stooges backed Trump’s plans to cut and control legal immigration, to bring some sanity back to who enters,

New York City elected a communist to be its next mayor on Tuesday. Uganda-born Zohran Mamdani is projected to win more than 50 percent of the Big Apple. Over the next few days, professional Republicans will shake their heads and lament the outcome of the race. But few, if any, will acknowledge the truth: Mamdani’s victory is the direct result of mass immigration. New York City wasn’t lost to a communist because the radical left out-organized the Democrat establishment. New York City was lost to a communist because we lost control of our borders — not just our southern border, but every single border separating the United States from the rest

Tucker, a Jewish philanthropist and businessman, will step down from the role he has held for just over 12 months on Dec. 19, sources said. He will go back to running the private security firm, T&M, which he headed before joining Mayor Eric Adams’ administration, the sources added.

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning expressed support for the government of Nigeria on Tuesday and claimed President Donald Trump was only interested in the slaughter of Christians as an “excuse” to interfere in Nigerian politics. President Trump on Saturday criticized Nigeria for allowing Islamic terrorists to murder Christians and said the United States might cut off aid to Nigeria or even launch a military action to take out the terrorists. “I am hereby instructing our Department of War to prepare for possible action. If we attack, it will be fast, vicious, and sweet, just like the terrorist thugs attack our CHERISHED Christians!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

Socialist Zohran Mamdani will complete his hostile takeover of the Democrat Party nationally, assuming the polls are right and he is elected mayor of New York City on Tuesday. When the race is called, assuming he wins, Mamdani will have successfully supplanted the rest of his party and will have become the highest-profile Democrat in America. Meanwhile, in New Jersey, Republican Jack Ciatarelli seeks to pull off an upset win over Democrat Mikie Sherill in the Garden State gubernatorial race. In Virginia, Democrat Abigail Spanberger seeks to reclaim the governor’s mansion for her party against Republican Winsome Earl-Sears, despite a Democrat scandal where Attorney General candidate Jay

Many illegal aliens who are not eligible for SNAP benefits were nonetheless saved from scrambling for food Friday when a judge forced funding for the program to continue in November. Both the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) and the Women, Infants, and Children (WIC) have been under threat as the budget impasse in Congress continues. SNAP was slated for suspension on Nov. 1 when the federal SNAP funding mechanism ran out. An appropriation bill must be passed to fund it.

During Wednesday’s jubilations for Democratic victories across the board the night prior, MSNBC’s Katy Tur claimed New York City’s wealthiest won’t leave because of the immense amount of culture on offer. Her guests also supported the idea that electing Zohran Mamdani (D) won’t scare off the one percent and subsequently bankrupt the city. When asked if it was insane for a socialist to be placed in charge of the “capitalist capital of the world,” former Biden adviser Jared Bernstein defended the mayor-elect: Look, there is a long and mistaken view that what's good for Main Street, or should I say what's good for Elmhurst or Brooklyn Heights, is bad for Wall Street.

Greetings, Dear Reader, As usual, they’re all wrong and I’m right. How can we interpret the two conflagrations in our midst? Let’s get into it. THE PIED PIPER OF BUSHWICK There are a couple of fires right now for conservatives. To our front, the Heritage Foundation is in the midst of a generational struggle session over allegiance to Israel. While I think the reckoning is worthwhile and ultimately inevitable – especially considering future American conservatives are not apt to carry Jerusalem’s burden – the one to our rear is much more immediate and consequential. The story we’re hearing from the left (and the right) about Mamdani’s win in New York City is pure mythology.

I did not vote for Zohran Mamdani. Call me crazy — but a socialist who, until five minutes ago, was gleefully tweeting to defund the police and who refuses to condemn the phrase “globalize the intifada” is not my ideal steward for this glittering center of progress. On social media, there’s a relentless schadenfreude chorus of “You deserve what you vote for” from out-of-towners who don’t seem to understand that massive swathes of New Yorkers did not, in fact, vote for Mamdani. But that doesn’t mean I’m going anywhere.

What’s happening in New York right now has a lot of Americans on edge, and rightfully so. A massive group of Muslims gathered and publicly claimed the city for Islam. People who watched it unfold aren’t being “bigots” for feeling uneasy. They’re watching their country’s biggest city slip further from the culture that built it, just days after electing a Marxist mayor. As Scott Jennings says, good luck, New York… A mayor who believes criminals are the “real victims” and police are the oppressors. This issue is about assimilation, or the lack of it. New York City doesn’t belong to any Muslims, and stunts like this don’t create

A federal jury has convicted a New York fiber laser expert of stealing military defense secrets to start a business in China. Ji Wang, 63, faces up to 15 years in prison for economic espionage after pilfering classified research on laser weapons technology. Wang’s conviction marks another victory in federal efforts to combat intellectual property theft linked to China’s state-sponsored recruitment programs. Wang stole hundreds of files containing trade secrets from a $11.4 million military project on or around July 1, 2016. The stolen data included manufacturing technology for specialty optical fibers used in high-powered laser weapons. Just ten days before the theft, Wang had applied for China’s Thousand Talents Plan Award.

Ford is considering scrapping the electric version of its F-150 pickup — once billed as the future of American trucks — after racking up billions in losses and watching demand collapse. Executives are in active talks about axing the money-losing F-150 Lightning altogether, sources told the Wall Street Journal, in what could become the first major casualty of America’s faltering electric vehicle revolution. The Lightning, launched with fanfare in 2021 and hailed by CEO Jim Farley as a ‘smartphone that can tow,’ was supposed to mark a new era for Ford. President Joe Biden even took one for a spin, calling it ‘quick as hell.’ But the hype faded fast.

Zohran Mamadani’s stunning victory as the newly elected mayor of New York was salt poured in the open wound of an even more titanic blue wave that swept aside any hopes that the nation had turned back to traditional sanity. He’s an old-school communist who made no effort to cloak his Marxist bona fides behind the charade of democratic socialism, and secured a victory that we could see coming from a mile away. It's a turning point for the nation as a disciple of the deadliest ideology the modern world has ever known is empowered to beset this terror upon Americans [snip].

Zohran Mamdani’s victory in the New York City mayoral race this week is a clear moment. Voters chose a 34-year-old Democrat Socialist promising frozen rents, higher taxes on the wealthy, more public spending, etc. You know, all the things communists promise before their overblown Marxism takes control. That is now the experiment New York City residents asked for. As GOP House Speaker Mike Johnson (LA-04) explained: Zohran Mamdani’s victory marks the BIGGEST WIN FOR destructive, dangerous, big government SOCIALISM in U.S. history — and a loss for freedom loving American people. He’s an unapologetic Marxist — fully EMBRACED by the Democrat establishment. Hakeem Jeffries ENDORSED him. Barack Obama personally called to CONGRATULATE him.

Federal prosecutors have opened a corruption investigation into Washington DC’s Democrat Mayor Muriel Bowser. According to The New York Times, the investigation has been underway for several months. The investigation is focused on Bowser’s $61,000 trip to Dubai for a UN Climate Change conference in 2023. Bowser’s trip was reportedly paid for by Qatar. Earlier this year 7News filed a FOIA request to uncover who paid for Bowser’s trip to Dubai and said there is no record of a donation agreement between DC and Qatar.
