Well, that was a depressing election day, wasn’t it? The big three (plus two) 2025 elections have all been tabulated, and the Democrats won bigly. New Jersey Governor In New Jersey, the Democrats won a yuge race for governor. Democrat Rep. Mikie Sherrill (NJ-11), despite being a terrible candidate according to normal candidate metrics, beat Republican Jack Ciattarelli 56.3 percent to 43.2 percent. My prediction was totally off here, as I assumed that the Republican nominee would win a narrow majority or plurality. In this race, Democrats broke a historical trend going back to 1961,

Off-year election in a blue state with a controlling party's motivated base headed to the polls to send a message and the out-party's base happy with the White House and stays home. Typical pattern.

Yeah, it was a regular tidal wave of. . .VOTER FRAUD in New Jersey! It's looking like at least 500,000 new voters showed up from 2021 to 2025, with nearly ALL of them going to the DemocRats! I know, I know. You're as shocked about this as I am. It takes time to dismantle the "most extensive and inclusive voter fraud organization in the history of American Politics" doesn't it? Obviously we are nowhere close to achieving the "most secure election in our history", are we?

Actually, the Democrats, the people who voted, haven't won anything, They lost., They lost all self-respect, and the real loss hasn't started, Wait until their taxes are raised, their freedoms taken away. They voted for it, they deserve it. Problem: They are too stupid to know they lost.

A blue wave election, even in blue states is astonishing. That any person, including democrats could vote to put into office ANY democrat is staggering. The democrat party is no longer a political party; it is a death cult. For 50 years the foundation of the party has been abortion; the killing of their own as well as others' children. If killing innocent babies has been your raison d'etre, your reason for being for a half century, then assassinating your opponents, calling for the murder of their children, mutilating children on the altar of transgenderism, and other vile policies all become very easy. How do we return to being a loving, productive, patriotic country again given one of the two major political parties has become a death cult? There is only so much President Trump can do and I truly believe the hand of God is guiding him. With God all things are possible. But, man, this is going to be an even more bumpy ride than it has been over these last ten years. I pray that our country will return to goodness, and I live long enough to see it.

The Dems realized that their "Schumer Shutdown" strategy was partly to ensure victories in these states, especially in Virginia (federal employees) and California (stealing House seats). NYC was in the bag, at the worst, Cuomo. NJ is so Democrat controlled, even a Republican win there wouldn't change much. Since the new VA governor doesn't want to work with Pres Trump, it should be the Trump administration goal to do as little as possible to help her or her AG who wants to kill Republicans and their children. No new federal employees need to be hired in Virginia. Those jobs can go to other states, preferably Red States. Ditto for NYC and California.

WE got our clock cleaned. It means we will lose the House next year and maybe even the Senate may come in play. TDS is very effective and we only have one year left to govern. Then Trump will have to veto everything coming out of Congress, something he did not do on his first term.

No, it wasn't a depressing election day. It was exactly what one expected from voters in blue states and a city. Anyone who expected anything different wasn't operating in reality, but a media fog. As usual, Fox network led the way with this idea that Republicans might win in a blue state.

Marxists vote in every election. It's their religion. Like Jake and Elwood, they're on a mission. Our folks, not so much. In VA and NJ, Trump got more votes last year than the Democrat winners. Winning is all about turnout and ballot security.

The Supreme Court issued a ruling blocking an order from a federal judge that required the Trump administration to pay full Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits for November. The decision from the Supreme Court came after the Trump administration requested that U.S. District Judge John McConnell’s order that the administration dish out full SNAP benefits by Friday be blocked, according to the Associated Press. Per the outlet: A judge had given the Republican administration until Friday to make the payments through the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program. But

There were two interconnected stories concerning Condé Nast publishing this week, and many of the problems with our contemporary media are at the center of it all. It was another case of an outlet facing constriction, and it led to another example of the new class of journalists infecting the industry with activist, near anti-social mindsets in the workplace. To start, if you missed the melodrama, the announcement was made earlier this week that the hyper-leftist source Teen Vogue was being diluted, with much of its editorial team being let go, and any lingering staff and content would be folded into the parent publication.

The Trump Administration is unmasking Antifa. While leaders of blue sanctuary states plot to pull the masks off ICE and Border Patrol agents, even as death threats against them have gone up by 8,000%, the Trump Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is imposing new rules on Antifa and other violent protesters. The net effect would rip off Antifa's masks and Teletubby costumes on or near federal property. The violent protesters who have been amassing outside the ICE headquarters in Portland since June were reportedly notified of the nationwide rules that forbid them from hiding their identities while on or near federal facilities like the ICE property.

Something strange happened in New Jersey on election night, and the numbers just don't add up. Republican Jack Ciattarelli lost the gubernatorial race to Democratic Representative Mikie Sherrill by a stunning 56% to 43% margin, a blowout that left pollsters scratching their heads and conservatives asking hard questions about what really went down in the Garden State. This was supposed to be a competitive race. Trump only lost the state by six points a year prior, and, if you were following this race, you know that Ciattarelli had momentum heading into Election Day, picking up endorsements from local Democrats and labor unions along the way. This was the only gubernatorial contest

Zohran Mamdani, a lunatic-fringe leftist, won election as mayor of New York by addressing the cost of living and making Hugo Chavez-like promises of free goodies for all. The latter will be a disaster, but the fact that the Trump administration officials are now focusing on the cost of living, too, suggests that all may not be a "golden age" as the administration has been promoting.

Democrats have had a pretty satisfying week, and for good reason. Republicans lost across the board on Tuesday, and didn't just lose but got thumped. While these losses all took place in blue states -- except some local races in Pennsylvania and Georgia, which are still concerning -- it's the scope of the losses that looks grim for the GOP. My pal Cam Edwards pushed back passionately in our VIP Gold chat yesterday at Republicans offering excuses for losses in Virginia especially, where a dozen state legislative seats flipped to Democrats, and warns that the GOP

Germany's grand “Muslim Miracle” was supposed to save the country’s future. Instead, it broke it into a million pieces. About ten years ago, German leaders sold their citizens on a utopian plan: import millions of young Muslims to flood the workforce, rescue a collapsing pension system, and secure the nation’s prosperity for generations. The theory sounded far-fetched and absurd, but Germans bought into it. However, the reality was a total disaster. Fast-forward to today, and Germany is now raising its retirement age to 70. The German people were lied to. The plan to rebuild the workforce through mass immigration didn’t just fail; it cratered. It didn’t revive the economy

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.

CNN last month reported on struggling federal workers whose emergency funds had evaporated, while the Associated Press reported: “Federal workers endure financial strain and fear layoffs as the government shutdown drags on.” An Oct. 27 commentary on MSNBC blamed President Trump and House Republicans for “abandoning federal workers who have now missed two paychecks.”
