Dems Place Their Bets Against The U.S.

Original Article

Posted By: 4250Luis, 3/10/2026 5:47:35 AM

‘The Democrats are betting on failure.” That’s how National Review’s Noah Rothman characterizes the Democratic Party’s response to the U.S.-Israeli attacks on the terrorist regime that controls Iran. But Rothman has it only half right. Democrats aren’t just betting on failure in Iran. They are trying to engineer it. And not just in Iran, but at home as well, where they are actively trying to undermine the economy. Because, you see, the midterms are coming up, and to Democrats, what matters isn’t the well-being of Americans or ridding the world of its chief terrorist threat. The only thing that matters is winning elections. While Ayatollah Khamenei’s body was still warm,

Democrats are nothing but "nattering nabobs of negativism." Quoting Spiro Agnew.

IF they take over either house in the next election, they'll intentionally kill the economy. They do it every time.

This nails it. Surprising that NR would publish it. I can remember when they devoted their whole issue slamming and smearing Trump prior to his first election. That's when I cancelled what was once a great magazine that I had subscribed to for years.

The worst writers in the NR have faded into obscurity, no need to embarrass them by name. Democrats are currently down by five touchdowns and are digging in right in front of the goal line. Smart people would have changed their game plan by this point but they are no longer part of the leftist equation.

The International Energy Agency announced Wednesday that its member countries, which includes the United States, would release 400 million barrels of oil from reserves. However, whether the U.S. will participate in any releases from the Strategic Petroleum Reserve is unclear. The act will be the largest release of crude from global strategic reserves in history, and it’s part of an effort to bring down crude oil prices, the according to The Wall Street Journal. The release would be twice the size of the next largest release, which occurred in 2022 following the Russian invasion of Ukraine. That release put 182 million barrels of oil on the market.

Sudan's ongoing civil war is not just a clash between the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF) and their former military allies-turned rivals, the Rapid Support Forces (RSF). It is a calculated power grab by the Sudanese Muslim Brotherhood, recently listed by the US as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT).... Meanwhile, the terrorist organization appears to be using the SAF as a Trojan horse to dominate northeast Africa and the Red Sea – a critical artery for global commerce. Saudi Arabia's ideological red lines have long included deep hostility to the Muslim Brotherhood — but only within its own borders.

President Donald Trump celebrated a report that the FBI obtained election records from Arizona’s largest county, a move that follows a federal raid last month on a Georgia county’s elections department. Maricopa County, the site of the reported FBI raid, has been a contentious jurisdiction for elections, particularly after Joe Biden beat Donald Trump narrowly in the state in 2020. Trump wrote “Great!!!” in a Truth Social post about the report of the FBI demanding election records. The state Senate conducted a forensic audit of the 2020 election returns in Maricopa County.

The Department of Education will soon require universities to publicly disclose the counterparties of foreign funding, a senior Education Department official told The Daily Signal. Section 117 of the Higher Education Act requires higher education institutions to report gifts and contracts valued at $250,000 or more to the Department of Education, to make them available for public inspection. Universities currently report counterparties, their gifters or contractors, to the agency. However, the identities of foreign counterparties are not made public, which the senior department official said violates the law.

Officials reportedly said a prison guard in the unit where Jeffrey Epstein was being held searched his name on Google minutes before he was found dead. U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) documents showed the guard also made a $5,000 deposit just over a week before his death, the New York Post reported on Saturday, identifying the guard as Tova Noel. In August 2019 Epstein, a convicted pedophile, was found dead inside his Manhattan jail cell where reports said he hanged himself. Noel and another guard were accused of falsifying records to make it appear as though they had checked on Epstein during the night hours.

The ouster of Kristi Noem opens the path for a potential deal to reopen the Department of Homeland Security, according to Senate sources familiar with negotiations. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) said Noem’s departure from Homeland Security is a “major step” that he said should move the negotiations closer to a deal. A Senate GOP source familiar with the talks said Republican leaders hope it will be enough to persuade a group of centrists to break with their leadership and vote for a bill to reopen the government. Four Democrats voted with Republicans in the House Thursday to fund the Homeland Security Department through September.

U.S. Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) is proposing a bill that, if passed, would make the first $75,000 of a household income tax free. If the bill -- called the Keep Your Pay Act -- passes, it would more than double the standard deduction for taxpayers. Under Booker’s proposal, which was revealed Monday, the median American family would see their taxes cut by roughly 85%. Single filers and heads of households would also receive proportional tax relief through the Keep Your Pay Act. In a video advocating his bill, Booker said in part: "The tax system, we all know this, is rigged. It’s rigged against working people and all full of things to help

A left-wing activist network is training liberals how to slip onto juries in federal cases and then vote “not guilty” to derail prosecutions brought by the Trump Justice Department. Recordings and training materials tied to the group Freedom Trainers show activists being coached on how to conceal their left-wing views during jury selection and then use jury nullification once they are seated on a jury. The webinars, slide decks, and pamphlets behind the effort all push the same approach: Blend in during selection, say the right things to get seated, and use the jury room to block convictions.

The Trump administration’s messaging on America’s military involvement in Iran has been, to put it lightly, a mess. And it’s clear after listening to his remarks about the conflict that Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., is not helping the situation. Since the U.S.-Israeli-led operation against Tehran began, Graham has rushed to every microphone and television camera available to express his unbridled enthusiasm about the campaign. When he isn’t bragging about how much money the U.S. is going to make as a result of the conflict, he’s calling for more American intervention in countries like Cuba and Lebanon.

A top Iranian security official made a thinly veiled threat against Donald Trump’s life on Tuesday after the U.S. President warned of massive strikes against Iran if it blocked oil shipments through the Strait of Hormuz. ​​ "Iran doesn't fear your empty threats. Even those bigger than you couldn't eliminate Iran. Be careful not to get eliminated yourself,” Ali Larijani, the head of the Iranian National Security Council, posted on X. The threat came in response to Trump’s post on TruthSocial that if Iran doesn’t allow oil shipment to resume in the Strait of Hormuz, the U.S. would hit Iran “twenty times harder” than they have been hit so far.
