Talking heads on the left seem to be bound and determined to prove that liberalism is indeed a mental illness and it goes by the name “Trump Derangement Syndrome.” Which, apparently, has expanded to include former President Donald Trump’s vice presidential running mate, JD Vance. Allow me to present to you very fine people, exhibit A. According to RealClearPolitics, Rachel Maddow, a host for extreme left-wing network MSNBC, recently discussed on her program how folks on the political right just love to use references to JRR Tolkien’s masterpiece, “Lord of the Rings,” taking a high dive deep into the waters…

A member of Hot Air’s team of journalists — a publication that falls under the RedState umbrella — Karen Townsend, has passed away after being sent out to provide coverage of Hurricane Beryl and the flooding and blackouts that have come about as a result of the storm that smashed like a fist of iron into the great state of Texas. Townsend lived near Houston where Hot Air lost contact with her not long after the power went out. The blackout lasted over a week. During and after that time, the publication received no word whatsoever from Townsend. Then, on…
The would-be assassin, Thomas Matthew Crooks, who almost successfully shot former President Donald Trump during a political rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, told his boss that he needed the day off due to having “something to do,” according to new reporters. If he had been denied this time off, there’s a chance he would have been at work on the day of the rally and the bullets he fired from his AR-15 that grazed Trump’s ear and ended the life of a former fire chief, would have never exited through the barrel of the rifle. According to the folks at Fox…
The radical left seem to completely own the corner market on hypocrisy, a point made abundantly clear by MSNBC host Joy Reid, who had the intestinal fortitude to actually blame former President Donald Trump for the assassination attempt that was made on his life on Saturday during a campaign rally in Pennsylvania. Trump was shot through the upper part of his right ear. One individual in the audience was killed and several others injured before the gunman was dispatched by snipers. Ladies and gentlemen, this is what we call “victim blaming.” Imagine telling a rape victim she deserved what she…
Almost immediately following the atrocious performance delivered by President Joe Biden during the first presidential debate on June 27, Democrats — in government and otherwise — began demanding that he step down as the party nominee, citing obvious cognitive decline as the main reason he shouldn’t stay in the race. Hilariously, this is what conservatives have been saying ever since Biden took office in 2021, but we were just being “meanies” back then, right? It was beginning to look like the Democrats might actually stand a chance of convincing him to give up the position, but they’ve abandoned all hope…
Just two days after being shot during an assassination attempt, former President Donald Trump conducted an interview where he provided an update about his injuries, going on to call the incident a “very surreal experience.” Man, this dude is a tough son of a b****, isn’t it he? If you’re a red-blooded American male, your heart swelled with pride and you no doubt got goosebumps the moment Trump pumped his fist in the air after taking a bullet to the ear and shouted, “Fight!” I know that was my reaction. A lot of us were already voting for Trump in…
The Senate Judiciary Committee held a vote on Thursday, opting to reject a judicial nominee that allowed a male serial rapist who is transgender and deluded into thinking he’s actually a female, to be housed inside a women’s prison. Once again, the pure insanity and lack of common sense on display in our modern era completely blows my mind. How far we have fallen from being a once great society. It’s painful to watch the implosion. Here’s more on this ridiculousness via The Daily Caller: President Joe Biden nominated Sarah Netburn to the U.S. District Court for the Southern District…
Ever since President Joe Biden’s abysmal performance at the first — and likely last — presidential debate against former President Donald Trump on June 27, the radical left has been in full panic mode. Why? Well, the performance Biden gave has made it completely impossible for Democrats to continue to ignore or bury the truth about the president’s cognitive decline. In short, they have to face the music. Their party nominee is not right in the head, probably suffering from Parkinson’s, and is not able to discharge the duties of his office. On top of that, they’re fighting against his…
President Joe Biden is now adding a brand spanking new problem to his rather lengthy list, thanks for the most part to his obvious signs of cognitive decline and poor performance. That problem? His support in the very deep blue state of New York is slipping in a big, big way. In fact, some are even going so far as to refer to New York as a battleground state. It’s almost unfathomable to think that it could flip red in the election this November, but, given how things have gone for Biden’s reelection campaign thus far, there’s an actual possibility…
Adding even more fuel to the fire that President Joe Biden is suffering from some sort of cognitive or neurological illness, a new report from The Washington Times has revealed that a neurologist and Parkinson’s specialist made a total of a dozen visits to the White House Medical Unit, according to official visitor logs. And we thought the debate performance was a bad look, right? Yikes. With all of the questions being raised by Democrats following the absolutely terrible debate performance Biden gave on June 27, this new revelation is not going to help the president defend his bid for…
The Wisconsin Supreme Court issued a ruling on Friday that officials will be allowed to place ballot drop boxes all around their communities in the upcoming fall elections, which is an overturning of its previous decision just two years ago, which placed strict limits on their use. Well, I guess we’re going to be seeing some shenanigans this time around after all, aren’t we? What is so dang hard about having free and fair elections? Good grief. Here are more details on the matter from Breitbart: The court limited the use of drop boxes in July 2022, ruling then that…
Van Jones, a hardcore leftist political commentator for CNN, stated on Wednesday during an appearance on “Anderson Cooper 360” that Democrats, in private, are talking about “how” they can replace President Joe Biden as their party’s nominee, “not whether” that is the course of action they should take. Given the horrifically bad debate performance he gave last week, I’d say that’s probably true. Democrats from the top of the party all the way to the common voters have turned against him at this point. According to Breitbart, Jones went on to say, “I am going to be honest. I mean,…
Just when President Joe Biden’s reelection campaign didn’t think matters for their candidate could possibly get any worse after the disastrous debate last week, along comes a news story that reveals former Democratic Party supporters of the commander-in-chief during the 2020 election are bailing out on him this time around. We’ve seen a ton of that happening in the realm of political pundits, big time donors, and fellow politicians, but now former “rider-or-die” fans of his among voters are ditching him. In fact, according to a report from DNYUZ, “Jeanne Winograd, 72, a Democrat in Phoenix, is such a ride-or-die…
Scott Jennings, a Republican strategist, delivered some bad news to the Democratic Party on Monday, stating that they were in a “nosedive” after the Supreme Court delivered a decision in favor of former President Donald Trump in his immunity appeal. There’s just something delicious about seeing the left in a downward spiral, especially after all of the damage they’ve done to our nation in recent years. The ruling from SCOTUS, according to The Daily Caller, said that the former president is “entitled to immunity” for “official acts” in a case brought against him by special counsel Jack Smith concerning Trump’s…
Attorney General Merrick Garland is no doubt blowing smoke out of his ears after the Supreme Court ruled on Friday to limit the scope of a federal obstruction statute that was being used by various prosecutors to slap more than 300 defendants allegedly involved in the riot at the Capitol building back on Jan. 6, 2024, which includes former President Donald Trump. According to ABC News: Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the 6-3 majority, said the government must show in those cases that the alleged obstruction related to “impairing the availability or integrity” of “records, documents, or objects” used…
Martha MacCallum, a host with Fox News, went head-to-head with Sen. Harpootlian, South Carolina Democrat, on Thursday after after he lobbed an accusation against her of employing the use of “bumper sticker” immigration rhetoric. Why in the world can’t the leftists in this country just address issues directly? Everything is always a back-and-forth battle instead of addressing the problem. Oh. That’s right. It’s because they LOVE some illegal immigration. It’s one of the only winning strategies they have at their disposal. via The Daily Caller: Harpootlian attempted to defend the border crisis occurring during President Joe Biden’s term by arguing…
As we head into the very first presidential debate in the 2024 election cycle, President Joe Biden is looking to focus the messaging of his campaign on painting former President Donald Trump as a menace to democracy, a threat to the freedom and liberty we take for granted as a way of life in this country. Hilariously, it’s actually Biden and his leftist ideology that threatens to unravel the fabric of our nation. Biden also used this narrative against Republicans during the midterm elections in 2022, putting out a number of warnings in the week leading up to voting that…
Say what you will about comedian and host of “Real Time” Bill Maher, but at least the guy isn’t afraid to slam his own side of the political aisle when they do stupid things. While I don’t agree with most of what he believes or says, there are a few issues where he hits the nail square on the head and drives that baby right through the wall. Recent comments he made concerning mistakes the Democratic Party has made going into the 2024 presidential election definitely fit that description. The comments came during an appearance that Maher made at the…
Federal authorities are now looking into some private emails and records of trips that were made to China by Eric Adams and a key aide, who, by the way, had their private home raided, according to a new report from The New York Post. The article, by contributor Isabel Vincent, stated that federal prosecutors and the Federal Bureau of Investigation have pinpointed one particular trip that was taken by Adams that was funded by the Chinese Communist Party. My friends, that is most certainly not a good look for the mayor of one of the most important big cities in…
A group of “experts” have stated that if former President Donald Trump should win another four year term in the White House, his bride and our first lady, Melania Trump, would be calling it her residence in name only and not actually spending a great deal of her time there. It might sound weird, but Melania was never big on being in the public eye the first go-around in the president’s mansion, so it isn’t surprising she wouldn’t want to actually “live” in the White House. Especially after all of the trauma and criticism she received just simply for being…
Actor and comedian Jerry Seinfeld is proving why he’s had a successful career in the entertainment industry by still managing to make people laugh even while dealing with a brain dead liberal anti-Israel protester heckling him during live performances. This is becoming a regular thing for Seinfeld, unfortunately, but he’s making the best of these rude interruptions, proving that the best way to not let the loony left win is by rolling with the punches. According to Breitbart, the popular comic was performing in front of thousands of fans at a show in Melbourne, Australia’s Rod Laver Arena on Saturday…
Strange things seem to be afoot at the highest court in the land — for those of you who failed civics in high school, if you even had civics in high school, I’m referring to the Supreme Court — as Justice Samuel Alito missed a second day of work on the bench last Friday (June 21), while his colleagues handed out several opinions, including one on the Second Amendment. It’s not a good sign that Alito is mysteriously absent from the bench with no reason provided for his absence. This could all just be a case of his being under…
Just when you think the Biden administration could not be more shady in how it is “handling” the immigration crisis unfolding along the southern border, along comes TheBlaze with a report that reveals the Department of Health and Human Services does not require illegal immigrants who are under 18 years of age to submit information concerning their criminal records. Sigh. The Democrats really, really want new batches of leftist voters, folks. via TheBlaze: Last June, Robin Dunn Marcos, an HHS official, told the House Judiciary Committee that the department does not request complete background check information for unaccompanied alien children.…
A heckler thought it was a good idea to attend a comedy show featuring the legendary stand-up comic and television star, Jerry Seinfeld, a master of the art of sarcasm, with anti-Israel slogans while he was performing in Sydney, Australia. Seinfeld proceeded to completely roast the individual as he was being booted from the venue. This is how you handle morons, ladies and gentlemen. What kind of idiot would dare to take on a stand-up comic, especially one who is known for their mastery with the serrated edge of wit like Seinfeld? This person must not have watched a single…
On Thursday, former President Donald Trump was found guilty by a jury of his peers in Manhattan concerning the “hush money” case, which alleges that he paid off former pornstar Stormy Daniels as a means of keeping her quiet about an alleged affair they had prior to the 2016 presidential election. This, of course, was a total scam of a trial and most of us can clearly see that. The odds were stacked against Trump from the very beginning. Now that the verdict has been rendered, many are wondering whether or not the Supreme Court might have the authority to…
