Former Democrat Rep. Barney Frank has entered hospice care. Barney Frank, 86, is in hospice care at his home in Maine, where he resides with his husband. Frank is suffering from congestive heart failure. Barney Frank was one of the Democrat Reps who authored the Dodd-Frank bill, which was put in place after the 2008 bank crash. The government arguably caused the failure and then turned around and put in a massive amount of regulations in response to the failure. The Dodd-Frank bill put enormous strain on smaller banks, and eventually, some of the regulations were rolled back. Ironically, Barney Frank sat on the board of Signature Bank,

Well, we're all supposed to forgive and wish him well - but I make exceptions for any and all elected politicians who then spend their careers violating the public trust, lying to and fooling the taxpayers who honestly turned over their hard-earned tax dollars.

Compared to today's Democrat leadership, Barney Frank is an esteemed statesman. Faults and all, I'll be magnanimous and wish him peace and comfort in his final days.

He's suffering from congestive heart failure. It makes me wonder if a man having ingested semen in various orifices is a contributor to such an affliction.

Voting Rights Act Supreme Court victory
gets GOP giddy over saving midterms

Republicans see a clear win in Wednesday’s Supreme Court decision striking down Louisiana’s congressional maps and that victory could keep them in control of the House after November’s election. The Supreme Court, in a major decision, struck down Louisiana’s majority-black House district and weakened the Voting Rights Act, giving Republicans a chance to rewrite the congressional maps, particularly in Southern states. As a result, Republican-led states could eliminate black and Latino electoral districts. And some strategists are arguing it’s time for the party to get aggressive to keep the House in control and protect President Trump’s agenda. Some black lawmakers are already worried they’ll be a target in this year’s election.

Republicans took a bold stand against the radical left’s sacred cow: the so-called Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances (FACE) Act. The hearing exposed how the Biden DOJ weaponized this law as a club to smash pro-life Americans while turning a blind eye to violent attacks on pregnancy resource centers and churches. Freshman Rep. Brandon Gill (R-TX) delivered one of the most uncomfortable moments for the abortion lobby in recent memory. Gill directly confronted Jessica Waters, Assistant Professor of Justice, Law & Criminology and a vocal advocate for abortion access, asking which BARBARIC abortion method she preferred.

In the wake of the latest attempt by garbage leftist idiots to murder President Donald Trump, prominent leftists are deflecting, descending into nearly psychotic redirection, or trying to shift the blame to Trump himself, even after promising to wage war on the president and joking about watching his wife become a widow. Impotent, mindless, and based in fantasy, leftist culture is a violent and childish culture, sowing ruin but pretending innocence. The Law of Merited Impossibility is undefeated as a concept: We absolutely didn’t try to kill you, and you deserve our efforts to kill you. The old Babylon Bee joke headline still lands: “Trump Indicted For Inciting Assassination Attempt.”

Two people have been indicted on federal charges related to the attack on TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez. TPUSA reporter Savanah Hernandez was brutally assaulted earlier this month at the Whipple ICE facility in Minneapolis. “I am extremely grateful to the DOJ and FBI for how swiftly they handled this case. I have been assaulted by violent left wing activists multiple times and there has never been a response, so to see the FBI and the justice system utilized to fight back against left wing violence is extremely appreciated,” Savanah Hernandez said in a statement to The Gateway Pundit.

Arsonists targeted Nigel Farage by pushing a firebomb through the letterbox of his home, the Reform Party leader has revealed. The Mail has more. Farage, 62, said the petrol bomb fortunately burnt out before causing any significant damage during the incident last year. He has labelled the event as an “outright arson attempt”. Farage recalled how the attack, which came at the start of 2025, occurred while he was not inside the property – with the politician discovering the damage only when he opened his front door. Police have investigated, but as yet no suspects have been identified.

For a liberal democracy with an educated population, we’re in a curious position: everybody is talking about something nobody knows anything about! I’m referring to digital ID and the fact the Government hasn’t put its plans in writing. As a result, most of the discussion is highly speculative: a mixture of hopes – ‘it’s nothing to worry about’ – and fears – ‘it’s a digital prison’. Yet the digital ID consultation, which runs until May 5th, contains significant pieces of information which, along with insights from experts giving evidence to the Home Affairs Parliamentary Committee, forms a clear picture of the Government’s intentions.

Last Tuesday, Taiwanese President Lai Ching-te, planning a visit to Taiwan’s sole African ally Eswatini, was abruptly informed that Seychelles, Madagascar, and Mauritius would deny overflight rights to his aircraft. The trip was then canceled — an unprecedented humiliation and major diplomatic setback for Taiwan. Everybody knows that Beijing was behind this latest stunt. What gives this episode its deeper strategic meaning, however, is its proximity to another major political development: the high-profile visit to China by Cheng Li-wen, chair of Taiwan’s opposition Kuomintang (KMT) party. During her trip, Cheng met with Chinese Communist Party leader Xi Jinping in a summit ...

The State Department said Tuesday it is "taking action" against dozens of entities and individuals behind Iran’s covert financial network, thereby cutting off billions of dollars to the Iranian regime. The actions are part of the United States' maximum pressure campaign against Iran in the midst of the conflict in the Middle East. The U.S. and Israel launched an attack on Iran in February, which killed multiple Iranian leaders. The State Department said it is taking action against 35 individuals and entities helping Iran, including banking networks that enable the transfer of tens of billions of dollars to help Iran evade sanctions.

New York City's self-described democratic socialist mayor, Zohran Mamdani, has made history, just not the kind worth bragging about. Barely months into office, he has blown past a statutory budget deadline for the first time since 2015, declared a fiscal crisis of "historic magnitude," and responded to a $5.4 billion budget gap the way any good socialist would: by asking someone else to pay for it. Mamdani and City Council Speaker Julie Menin appeared together at City Hall on Tuesday to announce they would delay the executive budget, originally due May 1, until May 12 while lobbying Albany to bail out a city

Rep.

Check out some of the best reactions from online: I guess that it should comes as no surprise that the congresswoman who "mistakenly" claimed that she was worth $30 million when she apparently doesn't even tout a net worth of $100,000 couldn't tell the difference between two and eleven.

Despite a $7.1 billion hole, Mayor Zohran Mamdani has pushed back against any serious cutting to his budget and instead wants to delay required payments to city pension funds. That’s precisely the kind of tactics that brought the city to the brink of bankruptcy in the ’70s. At the least, it will saddle future taxpayers with unnecessary costs. For the moment, the city is on-track to meeting its long-term pension-funding obligations by its 2032 deadline. Yet to help close his budget hole, Mamdani would push $1 billion worth of payments into the 2040s. That would be both costly and risky.

EPA Administrator Lee Zeldin slammed Rep. Rosa DeLauro for being “uninformed” Monday after the Connecticut Democrat completely lost it and suggested he drink weed killer during a heated congressional budget hearing. DeLauro, the purple-haired ranking member of the House Appropriations Committee, argued Zeldin’s budget proposal “reads like a climate change denier’s manifesto” as she asked the EPA chief to “justify abandoning [the EPA’s] duty to protect Americans” from climate change. Zeldin, a former Republican New York congressman, wasn’t having it. “Following the law,” he responded. “Section 202 of the Clean Air Act. Where does it say anything about fighting global climate change?” DeLauro, 83, remained silent.

In a skit last Thursday, ABC’s late-night host Jimmy Kimmel pretended to be the host of the White House Correspondents’ Dinner and remarked of Melania Trump, “You have a glow like an expectant widow.” Given that President Trump had already survived two assassination attempts, it was tasteless even at the time. But the remark aged even more poorly when a third aspiring assassin crashed the actual event days later.In a rare statement, the understandably shaken first lady condemned Kimmel, saying, “His monologue about my family isn’t comedy — his words are corrosive and deepens the political sickness within America.”

Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins said Tuesday that a recent review found thousands of Americans who receive Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits in just one state are actually driving luxury vehicles. Rollins did not identify the state, except to say it was led by a Republican, but said a scrutiny of the federal food stamp program uncovered that thousands of people who are getting the benefits in that one state are also rolling to stores in Bentleys and Teslas. The study, conducted by the Foundation for Government Accountability, connected 14,000 luxury vehicles to food stamp enrollees, with Lexus being the most common brand.
