A recent report sheds light on the connections between George Soros and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH), revealing the influence of what some call a “dark-money machine.” This apparatus is purportedly designed to manipulate U.S. politics and suppress dissenting voices online. The report originated from The Washington Free Beacon, which highlighted a significant grant from Soros’ Open Society Foundations to CCDH, amounting to $250,000 for the fiscal year 2024. This funding is seen as part of a broader strategy to shape policy and control the narrative surrounding vaccine criticism and other contentious issues. CCDH has drawn scrutiny for…

The recent incident on a Chicago train, where a woman was set on fire, sheds light on a troubling trend in the criminal justice system. Fifty-year-old Lawrence Reed, the alleged perpetrator, was arrested an astounding 72 times over the last 32 years, raising serious questions about how repeated offenders are managed. In a court hearing, prosecutors outlined Reed’s extensive criminal history, which included a warning from a Cook County Assistant State’s Attorney. The prosecutor cautioned Judge Teresa Molina-Gonzalez that Reed’s pattern of behavior indicated his next offense would likely be violent. Yet, the judge responded, “I can’t keep everybody in…

Tragically, the man was pronounced dead at the scene; remarkably, no injuries were reported among others present. The incident raises critical questions about…

Jamie Stiehm stirred controversy with her latest piece concerning the playing of the national anthem in Washington, D.C. The liberal columnist voiced her discontent in an article for The Capital Times, suggesting that the “Star-Spangled Banner” is a poor fit for classical music concerts. Stiehm argues that while the anthem belongs at “ballparks and stadiums,” it is “dissonant” when performed before a symphonic presentation, especially given today’s political climate. Stiehm’s attendance at a concert of the National Symphony Orchestra, which reportedly opens its performances with the anthem under the Trump administration, fueled her criticism. She referenced Trump’s influence directly, claiming…

Rep. Jasmine Crockett of Texas has taken a combative stance against critics who scrutinized Democratic Virgin Islands Delegate Stacey Plaskett for her past communications with Jeffrey Epstein, a known sex offender. During a livestream on Thursday, Crockett suggested that the backlash against Plaskett was racially motivated, labeling it a characteristic of “MAGA” politics. She stated, “MAGA has decided that they are most upset about the fact that Epstein was sending text messages to his member of Congress.” Crockett’s comments illustrate a broader attempt to shift the focus away from Plaskett’s connections to Epstein and redirect the narrative toward perceived hypocrisy…

The NEA is preparing to train educators in advancing gender and racial ideologies, positioning its training sessions as a critical response to what they describe as attacks from Republicans and parent groups. According to the leaked materials, this agenda seeks to frame opposition to these ideologies as harmful to society.

The leaked documents accuse conservative figures of using…

He held a meeting with Zohran Mamdani, New York City’s new socialist mayor, and turned it into a politically advantageous moment. What many anticipated would be a contentious encounter instead became a showcase of Trump’s ability to navigate and reshape narratives in his favor, especially as the 2026 election cycle approaches. “Democrats got PLAYED by Donald Trump today.

Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) found herself in a whirlwind of controversy this week after it emerged that she received campaign contributions from an individual whose name has become synonymous with scandal. This revelation is particularly poignant because Crockett recently used that very name to hurl accusations at Republicans during a House debate.

The incident began when Crockett challenged a Republican-led censure motion against Virgin Islands Delegate Stacey Plaskett, who faced scrutiny for…

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) is sharpening its focus on affordability as it targets a return to power in the House during the upcoming midterm elections. Chair Suzan DelBene believes Democrats only need to flip three Republican-held seats to regain control for the first time in four years. “We’re going to hold Republicans accountable for their policies that are hurting American families,” she stated in an interview. Recent history shows that affordability issues resonated strongly with voters. High prices contributed to significant Republican gains in the 2024 elections, resulting in a Republican-controlled White House and Senate. However, the political…

Rep. Ralph Norman (R-SC) created quite a stir in the House of Representatives when he confronted Delegate Stacey Plaskett (D-Virgin Islands) about her ties to Jeffrey Epstein. In a bold move, Norman attempted to hold Plaskett accountable by proposing a resolution to censure her for conduct deemed detrimental to the integrity of the House. This resolution, however, did not pass. During his remarks, Norman made serious allegations against Plaskett. He claimed that she engaged in “inappropriate coordination” with Epstein during a congressional hearing in February 2019. According to Norman, Plaskett received real-time coaching from Epstein on her lines of questioning,…

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries has stepped into the spotlight amid serious allegations surrounding Rep. Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick of Florida. During a recent press briefing, Jeffries defended Cherfilus-McCormick against claims that she misappropriated nearly $5 million in federal COVID relief funds from FEMA. As questions arose about the impact of the indictment on her political career, Jeffries firmly reminded reporters, “Sheila is entitled to the presumption of innocence like every other American.” The allegations stem from claims that Cherfilus-McCormick and her brother, Edwin, leveraged their family health care firm to secure a FEMA-funded COVID vaccination staffing contract in 2021. According to…

In a recent speech before the House of Representatives, Rep. Brandon Gill of Texas reinforced his commitment to a tough stance on immigration, particularly focusing on welfare benefits for illegal aliens involved in criminal activities. He highlighted how these individuals are allegedly receiving taxpayer-funded support and painted a stark picture of the current immigration system under the Biden administration, which he claims facilitates the entry of dangerous elements into the country. Gill opened the conversation with a vivid example, describing how a member of the Tren de Araqua gang could traverse the US-Mexico border, receiving assistance from organizations funded by…

In a recent episode filled with confusion and finger-pointing, Congresswoman Jasmine Crockett found herself in hot water after a speech that backfired spectacularly. Her comments aimed to link Republicans to the notorious Jeffrey Epstein, but instead, they revealed a lack of basic research on her part. During her speech, Crockett loudly asserted that many Republicans, including Mitt Romney and Lee Zeldin, had taken money from Epstein. “Folks who also took money from somebody named Jeffrey Epstein,” she exclaimed, as if she had made a shocking discovery. However, her claims soon unraveled when it became clear that the Epstein to whom…

Recent events surrounding Rep. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX) reveal a deepening rift within the Republican Party, particularly among its ranks in Congress. The situation involves a three-month international travel ban imposed on Crenshaw by top House Republicans following an alcohol-related episode during a delegation trip to Mexico. According to reports, this incident involved Crenshaw toasting a crude joke made by a Mexican official, which made some female colleagues uncomfortable, as detailed by Punchbowl News. This controversy stems from tensions between Crenshaw and Intelligence Chair Rick Crawford. Crawford initially sought Crenshaw’s removal from the committee but ultimately opted for the travel ban…

Newly released text messages from Jeffrey Epstein’s files shed light on his attempts to reconnect with Bill Gates in 2017 regarding a proposed donor-advised fund. These efforts were thwarted by Melinda Gates, who was clearly not in favor of her husband’s association with Epstein. A message from Gates’ adviser illustrates this dynamic: “He wants to talk to you but his wife won’t let him,” the adviser relayed, while also mentioning that Gates still held affection for Epstein and felt remorse over the demise of their planned collaboration. Epstein’s suggestion that Kathryn Ruemmler persuade Melinda to facilitate a meeting highlights his…
