President Donald Trump is raring for a fight. The president openly solicited contenders on social media Saturday to primary Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-Colo.) after she campaigned for Trump-foe Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.). “Is anyone interested in running against Weak Minded Lauren Boebert in Colorado’s Fourth Congressional District? You remember Lauren moved to the District when it became obvious that she couldn’t win in her original Congressional District (The Third!) — A Carpetbagger, indeed!” Trump posted on Truth Social Saturday.

Boebert is the next one that needs to go. No only is she an embarrassment to the party, she said that she would vote down authorizing DoD funds to replenish their stockpile of weapons used in Iran. She should be primaried.

She was apparently at the height of her capabilities running a small storefront restaurant in a small town. She was on the right track for a while, but seems to have wandered off and totally lost her way. If she likes loons like Massie, time to cut the losses and find a good replacement.

Previous posters are correct. Boebert was a breath of fresh air when she first got to D.C., but she quickly got in over her head. She’s past her “sell by” date now.

Hmmm, I wonder. Have the Deep State bagmen gotten to Lauren Boebert? Could we be seeing in real time the corruption of a sitting Republican House member? Idk much about her, but this is within the realm of possibility.

Boebert is a flake. She's proven herself a flake, not to be taken seriously by voters.

The opponents on this road trip aren’t particularly daunting, giving the Mets a wide opening to continue their recent surge. Monday night they avoided a letdown following the euphoria of winning the Subway Series, attacking throughout against the Nationals. ‘The Mets won 16-7 in 12 innings for a sixth victory in seven games. The Mets scored 10 runs in the final inning, piling on against Jorbit Vivas, a position player, after they had built a comfortable cushion. Carson Benge’s RBI single in the 12th inning brought in the go-ahead run after Hayden Senger’s sacrifice bunt had advanced the automatic runner. Vidal Bruján’s suicide squeeze brought in Benge for an insurance run.

A total of five people including two teenaged gunmen are dead after an active shooter situation at a San Diego mosque drew a massive police presence, police sources told The Post Monday. One of the victims was a mosque security guard who “played a pivotal role in assisting, this could have been worse,” said a San Diego police officer at the press conference. The suspects, believed to be aged 17 and 19, died from self-inflicted gunshot wounds, police said during a press conference. They fled in a white BMW and were found dead inside the vehicle. Two other adults were killed at the mosque by the gunmen, police said.

few weeks into President Donald Trump's second term, his crackdown on illegal immigration netted an unexpected yield: a former Cuban fighter pilot who had been allowed into the United States under President Joe Biden and was trying to get permanent residency. The 2025 arrest of Luis Raul Gonzalez-Pardo Rodriguez, officials told Just the News, set in motion an extraordinary set of events inside the U.S. intelligence community, the FBI, and the U.S. Attorney's Office in Miami that could yield the unveiling of an indictment as early as Wednesday of former Cuban President —

Some school districts appear to go to great lengths to hide curricula, psychological interventions and which adults have access to students, even invoking copyright law and forcing parents to navigate state and federal courts to bring an open-records lawsuit. They don't seem as reticent to hide their outsourcing of curricular decisions to a progressive group that went from fighting the Ku Klux Klan to allegedly funding the Klan's progeny to create the appearance of a thriving white supremacy movement and thereby goose its fundraising and swing Southern elections.

Lai Ching-te said Sunday that arms purchases from the United States remain “the most important deterrent” against regional conflict and instability, following remarks by Donald Trump questioning continued American support for Taiwan after his recent visit to China. Lai stressed that U.S. arms sales to Taiwan and broader security cooperation are not only grounded in law but also serve as a “catalyst for regional peace and stability," the Associated Press reported. “We thank President Trump for his continued support for peace and stability across the Taiwan Strait since his first term, including the continuous increase in the scale and amount of arms sales to Taiwan,” Lai said.

This past April, actor Adam Scott (Severance) introduced her at a backyard fundraiser in Santa Monica.

Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen broke down in tears while reflecting on his decision to drop his reelection bid after redistricting all but ensured he had no path to victory. Cohen (D-Tenn.), the sole Democrat in Tennessee’s congressional delegation, lamented the Republicans’ revamping of the Volunteer State’s 9th district, which is majority minority, and railed against redistricting as “bad for democracy.” “I’m upset by this,” the now-outgoing Democrat bemoaned to NewsNation’s Chris Cuomo on Friday. “And I don’t get the criticism of stand and fight.” Why would you fight when they changed the district and there aren’t enough votes for you to win? That’s silly.” Cohen, who has repped the Memphis-centered district since 2007,

Revealingly, while Belgium's Press Ethics Council did not trust readers with Vance's speech on the factual lack of freedom of speech in Europe, the Belgian courts had no issues with a magazine column that incited violence against Belgian Jews. On one hand, the public cannot be trusted with information that has not been chewed up and curated for them beforehand, including an unfiltered speech by Vance. On the other hand, screeds inciting violence against Jews are perfectly acceptable, and all at once, out of the blue -- poof! -- suddenly the Belgian judicial system cares about "freedom of speech" if it is spoken by people whose votes are regarded as "necessary."

The regime in Tehran trembles not because of American bombers or sanctions alone, but because its greatest nightmare has always been the Iranian people themselves. While the chattering class in Washington and on cable news wrings its hands over “escalation” and “doom,” they miss the most powerful weapon President Trump has quietly at his disposal: Trump’s Silent Liberation Army—the millions of freedom-loving Iranians ready to reclaim their nation. Recent uprisings in Iran, building on the spirit of the 2022 Mahsa Amini protests and exploding into nationwide fury by late 2025 and early 2026, have shown the world the depth of popular discontent.

For a sense of how bereft the Democrats are of credible leaders and sensible policy ideas all one has to do is listen to the remarks of former Vice President Kamala Harris on the Win with Black Women podcast. She proposed a “no bad ideas brainstorm” in which Democrats would discuss “What we need to do, and think about doing, around the Electoral College … expanding the Supreme Court … statehood for Puerto Rico and D.C.” Harris, whom most polls of Democrat voters show as the front-runner for their party’s 2028 presidential nomination, said this as if offering fresh ideas.

Democratic Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was lampooned on social media for using a bulletproof shield on wheels while delivering a race-baiting rant on “voting rights.” The clown show unfolded Saturday at a rally in Montgomery, Alabama, where the Bronx Bolshevik tried to incite left-wing outrage following a Supreme Court decision repudiating race-based congressional redistricting as unconstitutional. The most notable part of AOC’s staged stunt was her absurd use of a portable bulletproof glass panel divider. “Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez champions defunding the police, open borders, and abolishing ICE, yet she shields herself behind bulletproof glass,” one X commenter wrote. “The hypocrisy is hard to ignore.”

Three suspects, including two teenagers, committed a staggering 12 shootings in the Austin area over the weekend. The Texas governor wants to see them behind bars for a long time, instead of released as “misguided minors” to shoot more people. The 15-year-old stole his gun on Saturday from the exact same store where the 17-year-old accomplice had already stolen a firearm. There was a warrant out for the latter’s arrest over the theft. ABC7 KATV did not provide names for any of the suspects, but merely said that the third suspect fled the vehicle when officers stopped it to arrest the teenagers.

At least eight people were injured Saturday in Modena, Italy when a crazed driver rammed his car into a crowd at full speed — and then knifed a hero who stopped him when he tried to flee following his cowardly act. The man has been identified by authorities as Salim el Koudri, a 31-year-old Italian citizen of Moroccan origin. The motive is not yet known, but a terrorist attack is not being ruled out, Italian newspaper La Pressa reported. El Koudri accelerated suddenly then zigzagged erratically on Via Emilia in the northern Italian city around 4:30 pm, mowing down at least four pedestrians.

Naturally, many Americans will ask how an outbreak of Ebola in Uganda and the Democratic Republic of the Congo (DRC) could possibly necessitate the World Health Organization (WHO) assuring the world that it is in imminent danger of Ebola contagion. But if there is one thing we learned from the COVID-19 lockdowns, it is that the WHO

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass is having a terrible, no good, very bad couple of weeks. Former Reality TV star and mayoral candidate Spencer Pratt leveled Bass in a May 6th mayoral debate. So much so that Bass begged out of another televised debate on May 13, opting to do one-on-one interviews with favored press. And who could be more favorable than the leftist clown car over at MS NOW? On Saturday, Bass appeared with Jonathan Capeheart on "The Weekend" to talk about her goals for her second term. The lowlights: restoring copper wire in the streetlights, and dealing with the problems of L.A. that have "existed for 3-plus decades."

Last week, in the wake of the Democrats losing the redistricting battles, House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries said, “We will beat the far-right extremists. We’re going to win in November, and then we’re going to crush their souls as it relates to the extremism that they are trying to unleash on the American people.” To Politico, this is a sign that Democrats had “ditched the niceties,” calling it “a marked reversal from years of high-minded Democratic rhetoric.” MS NOW reports that “Democrats say they are done playing defense.” “Niceties”? “High-minded rhetoric”? “Playing defense”? When have Democrats ever been like that?

And when you look at these shocking numbers, the whole mess feels like a full-blown money laundering scheme. Just another bloated California scam,

Victims and survivors of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing reacted with shock and horror at the possibility—if not likelihood—that a close associate of the "Blind Sheikh" terrorist mastermind who inspired the attack may soon be a member of Congress. Adam Hamawy, a Princeton plastic surgeon, is a frontrunner in a crowded Democratic primary to replace retiring Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman (D.) in New Jersey's deep-blue 12th Congressional District—despite his years-long friendship with Omar Abdel-Rahman, the Muslim extremist cleric who was sentenced to life in prison for his role in the 1993 bombing. The February 1993 blast killed 6 people and wounded more than 1,000.
