Democrats’ ICE hysteria hides their
deepest midterm fears
Posted By: 4250Luis, 2/9/2026 6:50:23 PM
Recent regional elections have seen Democratic candidates win a number of special-election races. Now, energized left-wing politicos remind the nation daily that every incumbent president, except three over the last century, has suffered substantial midterm losses in Congress. Polls show President Donald Trump suffering an average 11-point negative unfavorability rating. So Democrats promise to soon stop all new legislation and end Trump and his counterrevolution itself. But the left will never offer any alternative agenda on the economy, the border, crime or foreign policy.

A federal judge refused Sunday to help in attempts to open early voting sites at three public North Carolina universities, declining requests to overrule decisions by Republican-controlled elections boards leading up to the state’s upcoming primary.
U.S. District Judge William Osteen rejected arguments by the College Democrats of North Carolina and some students that they were likely to win a recent lawsuit because decisions by GOP board members placed undue burdens on the right to vote.
The decision by Osteen — nominated to the bench by President George W. Bush — to deny a preliminary injunction or a temporary restraining order can be appealed.

The Ruling Class Panic

If you take a close look at some of the major news stories that have captured our collective attention over the last few weeks, you may notice a peculiar pattern.
We’ll start in Minneapolis, with the story that has dominated the headlines for weeks. Although Tom Homan, President Trump’s “border czar,” has deftly negotiated a de-escalation of tensions in the nation’s most aggressive, bizarre, and aggressively bizarre sanctuary city, protests there continue. More to the point, state and local politicians continue to behave as if federal laws are irrelevant and as if they have no responsibility whatsoever to abide by rules that they have decided are unpleasant.
Spain’s Minister of Youth and Childhood, Sira Rego, a communist militant of Izquierda Unida and part of the coalition government led by socialist Pedro Sánchez, has publicly declared her support for drastic measures against the social network X, formerly known as Twitter.
Rego has expressed that the next step for the Executive should be to «limit and surely prohibit» access to this platform not only for young people, but for the entire Spanish population, arguing that it is a space where «flagrant violations of fundamental rights» occur.
Japanese Prime Minister Sanae Takaichi is projected to win a commanding victory in a snap general election, according to early exit polling released Sunday night.
Public broadcaster NHK estimated that the coalition headed by Takaichi’s Liberal Democratic Party (LDP) is on track to secure a two-thirds supermajority in the House of Representatives.
The LDP alone is expected to win enough seats to govern outright, marking a dramatic turnaround for a party that had lost its parliamentary majority just two years ago.
Takaichi, Japan’s first female prime minister who is often dubbed the country’s own “Iron Lady,” called the election only four months after assuming party leadership.
Woke California schools warned: Indoctrinate

kids with extreme ideology — lose federal cash 2 replies
California’s K-12 schools have been put on notice that indoctrinating children in extremist left wing ideology will lead to federal funding cuts.
In an exclusive interview with The California Post, the nation’s chief enforcer of civil rights Harmeet Dhillon has warned that political indoctrination, such as anti-Semitism, is now under the microscope, and won’t be tolerated.
Dhillon’s warning comes with genuine bite as all American public schools received federal government funding.The push to investigate — and potentially defund — public schools comes as the federal government last week moved to join a lawsuit against UCLA’s medical school.
“What we’re seeing in K-12 is antisemitism, we’re seeing racism —
Hannah Anderson, who serves as the Director of Healthy America Policy and as the Senior Director of Policy for the America First Policy Institute (AFPI), described the Trump Rx website as the “first of its kind” and “unprecedented” during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday.(snip) Anderson spoke about how the Trump Rx website allows Americans to “go directly to a website” and “clearly know the price of the drug” they need. Breitbart News reported that the Trump administration launched the Trump Rx website on Thursday, “where coupons are already available for 40 drugs.” Really, it’s so important for people to understand how unprecedented this is,” Anderson said. “This is a no-middle man contract —
Launched at the COP30 meeting in Brazil last year, the Declaration on Information Integrity on Climate Change (DIICC) was, as reported here, a manifesto for censorship wrapped in venal doublespeak. Fittingly, given the corrupt and exhaustive process that spawned it, the DIICC was last week ‘endorsed’ by the European Union. According to a European Commission press release from the Directorate-General for Climate Action, the EU Council gave its approval to the UNESCO initiative on January 20th and the EU formally accepted it a week later.
Billionaire developer Rick Caruso took a swipe at Spencer Pratt’s long-shot mayoral bid — while doubling down on his scathing criticism of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass over her response to last year’s deadly wildfires.
Caruso believes the former reality TV star’s political ambitions may be “well-intended,” but warned that Los Angeles can’t afford another inexperienced leader running a city of nearly four million residents.
“I think he’s a very well-intended guy,” Caruso told The Hollywood Reporter of Pratt, a fierce critic of Bass who kicked off his mayoral campaign this week.
If you want to buy spray paint you need an ID. The same applies for renting a car, buying tobacco products, buying alcohol, getting a hotel room, buying keyboard cleaner, and many more everyday purchases.
As it would turn out, you also need an ID if you want to attend a campaign event for Democrat Senator Jon Ossoff.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
Like the rest of his party, Senator Jon Ossoff of Georgia opposes the idea of voter ID, but you better have an ID if you’re planning to attend his campaign rally this weekend.
This is true of the Democrat National Convention as well.
In January, President Donald Trump signed an executive order to withdraw the United States from 66 international organizations deemed “redundant, poorly managed, unnecessary, costly, ineffective,” or that were instruments of America’s adversaries. Among them are various United Nations agencies and, most significantly, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the 1992 United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), the latter of which is the backbone of global climate governance.
During his first term, President Trump removed the U.S. from the Paris Agreement. But a newly elected President Joe Biden promptly returned the nation to the agreement in 2021, making ...
If you want to understand where American healthcare, advertising, and culture are colliding in real time, you could do worse than watching the Super Bowl. For decades, the game’s commercials have been a mirror of American priorities, from beer and cars to dotcoms and smartphones. Over the past decade, prescription drug companies have increasingly muscled their way into the field. What used to be an occasional novelty has become a full-blown marketing strategy, with pharmaceutical giants paying top dollar to pitch treatments to more than 100 million viewers at once.

Tucson, Ariz. — The sheriff investigating the apparent kidnapping of "Today" show anchor Savannah Guthrie's mother was spotted sitting near the front row at a college basketball game Saturday night, even as Guthrie and her two siblings posted a plaintive plea on Instagram for the safe return of their mother. Fox News Digital obtained photos of Pima County Sheriff Chris Nanos, who is facing increased scrutiny as the investigation into Nancy Guthrie's disappearance drags on, attending a matchup between the University of Arizona and Oklahoma State. Early Sunday morning will mark one week since Guthrie, 84, disappeared from her suburban Tucson home.

The problem was the show’s conceit: It was a message of unity, inclusion, and togetherness — in a language that 85% of the population doesn’t understand and cannot speak.
That’s not unity. That’s division.
Lo siento, Bad Bunny and/or the NFL, but the underlying metrics of the NFL’s Super Bowl halftime show didn’t make a lick of sense:
Only about 14% to 18% of the U.S. population speaks fluent Spanish — which means, of course, that 86% to 82% do not.
Only 14% of the NFL’s total audience is Hispanic.
The number of Latinos/Hispanics who speak English exclusively is growing, not shrinking:
'A Slap In The Face'
25 replies
Donald Trump has called Bad Bunny's all-Spanish Super Bowl halftime show 'one of the worst ever' and a 'slap in the face' to America.
The US President said the rapper's gig was 'absolutely terrible' and that there was 'nothing inspirational' about choosing a star who didn't perform in English.
Mr Trump was also deeply unhappy about some of the suggestive dancing because the Puerto Rican artist repeatedly grabbed his crotch and there were women twerking on stage (snip) ''It makes no sense, is an affront to the Greatness of America, and doesn't represent our standards of Success, Creativity, or Excellence'.
SANTA CLARA, Calif. — The Seattle Seahawks used a dominant defense and the strong running of game MVP Kenneth Walker III on Sunday to crush the New England Patriots 29-13 in Super Bowl LX.
It was the Seahawks’ second Super Bowl title in four appearances. It came 12 years after Seattle defeated Denver 43-8 in Super Bowl XLVIII -- a fitting nod to the 12th man that has fueled the energy at Seahawks’ home games.
The game, before 70,823 fans at Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara, California, showcased a punishing, opportunistic defense by the Seahawks that rendered Patriots quarterback Drake Maye mostly ineffective all night.
A radical left-wing group in Los Angeles has published a shocking 40-page roadmap to transform the nation’s second-largest city into a bizarre socialist experiment.
The Democratic Socialists of America’s LA chapter wants to straight-up seize private property through a “creative use of eminent domain,” take control of your neighborhood grocery store, and replace cops with unarmed social workers while shutting down jails.
Their Communist fever dream wishlist includes banning Airbnbs, grabbing golf courses for public housing, allowing non-citizen immigrants to vote in local elections, enforce a school curriculum that supports social justice and eliminating all fossil fuel use by 2035. The 3,500 member group has already helped elect several candidates
The worst-case scenario for Olympian Lindsey Vonn came just seconds into the women's downhill final in Cortina, Italy, on Sunday afternoon.
Vonn's body struck a gate as she made her first big jump less than 13 seconds into her run, altering her momentum and direction, prompting a scary crash as she flung sideways and bombed out.
The race was on hold for more than 20 minutes as Vonn was tended to on the course. The scene at Tofane Alpine Skiing Centre was eerily quiet, as thousands at the bottom of the mountain, including Vonn's family, were left stunned and largely speechless.
New York City Council member Zohran Mamdani called for a coordinated government response to what he described as growing threats facing immigrant communities, while urging faith leaders to play a central role in supporting residents who may be targeted by Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Mamdani made the remarks while outlining his vision for how city government and community institutions should respond during times of crisis.
He argued that city agencies must operate in a unified manner and said religious leaders are essential partners in reaching immigrant populations across New York City.
Former DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has quietly taken a role as a Visiting Scholar at the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace, an institution long entangled with Chinese influence networks, foreign government funding, and open-borders activism. (snip) For over a decade, Carnegie has maintained a documented relationship with the China-United States Exchange Federation -- a core instrument of the Chinese Communist Party's United Front Work Department, whose stated purpose is to "co-opt and neutralize sources of potential opposition" and steer foreign elites toward Beijing's preferred positions.
Democrats push hard for every possible advantage in elections, but courts sometimes draw a line.
U.S. District Judge William L. Osteen Jr. delivered a ruling that defined those lines by rejecting a Democratic demand for early voting sites on three North Carolina university campuses. His ruling carried an unmistakable tone of impatience toward a case that tried to dress political convenience as constitutional necessity. The College Democrats of North Carolina argued that without on-campus sites, students would need to travel off campus to vote, imposing time and transportation burdens on young voters.
That's the premise Judge Osteen rejected, making clear that elections aren't built to require perfect comfort;
A Complicated Week

The attention of those less politically minded is focused on the disappearance of Savannah Guthrie’s mother, Nancy -- always fodder for the would-be Colombos and Miss Marples -- and the Olympics. Yet this week saw some victories for the administration along with some serious unfinished business. The ousted dictator Nicolás Maduro seems isolated, depressed, and devoid of funds sufficient to hire teams of lawyers to defend him. Any claims he might have for immunity seem destined to fail. The evidence establishes he was born in Colombia; his claim falls because only a native Venezuelan is entitled to hold the office of president.
The uproar over the Trump video tells you more about the left’s narrative machine than it does about what actually happened. What they want you to see is “Trump posts racist monkey video about the Obamas.” What they do not want you to see is context, intent, or basic honesty about how the clip ended up on his Truth Social feed in the first place. Let’s get something out of the way: the post should never have been made, and whoever was responsible was careless for not previewing the entire video first.
The original post from Trump’s Truth Social account was about voter fraud and election integrity, not about the Obamas.
A damning on-site investigation has revealed that the winery co-owned by Ilhan Omar’s husband is nothing more than a phantom operation, fueling suspicions of fraud amid scrutiny of her skyrocketing wealth.Angela Rose, the journalist behind the probe, visited the listed address in Santa Rosa, California, only to discover glaring discrepancies that point to a shell company setup.“I visited the principal address of ESTCRU winery. This winery is co owned by US Rep of Minnesota Ilhan Omar’s husband, Timothy Mynett, yet seems to allegedly be a shell business used to launder funds,” Rose stated in her report.
