Meh. The Democrats won in states they have voter registration advantages in - and, in fact, most of the races were far closer than they should have been.
I know the mainstream media / DNC Communications Office (but I repeat myself) are spinning this as some great repudiation of Trump and the GOP - but take a step back and look at what actually happened: The Democrats beat back Republican challengers in Democratic strongholds. New York, New Jersey, California. Retook a governorship and AG in Virginia that the Republicans only managed to win because of the Democrats' war on parental rights an election cycle ago.
Yawn.
The Democrats' path to retaking the U.S. Senate or even the House next year is ... unlikely at best (although I never underestimate the possibility of the Republicans doing something truly stupid).
And even in California, what did the Democrats actually gain? By pretending Texas wasn't redistricting to match California, New York and Illinois' own existing radical gerrymandering, Newsom managed to motivate North Carolina, Missouri and Indiana to follow his lead - all but erasing any Democratic gains in California. And since Democratic-controlled states are already so heavily gerrymandered, there aren't really any more Democratic seats to fabricate.
Look for more red states to now jump into the game and add a net gain of Republican-leaning House districts before next year. (And pending lawsuits against California Prop. 50 may upend it yet - the language is openly partisan, in violation of the state Constitution, and the Legislature openly ignored rules requiring a bill be introduced and finalized in time for all legislators to have time to study it.)
If Prop. 50 is overturned while the Republican redistricting stands up in court, don't think other Democrats won't hold Newsom to blame for that mess ....
Unwoke in Idaho: Can you imagine what a hot civil-war on American soil would look like? I posit America is under attack, from without and within. Because Barack Hussein Obama, Kamala Harris, Valerie Jarrett and Pete Buttigieg are all the children of Communists. And, because the enemies of the West -- such as China, Iran, North Korea, Russia and Qatar -- know they cannot yet defeat the US in direct military conflict; I hold BHO and Valerie Jarrett (and continuing under four years of O'Biden's Administration), have engaged in "asymmetric warfare" - and BHO/Jarrett have embedded the DEEP STATE with Marxists/Socialists who are "down for the revolution". The Chinese Communist Party has spent billions since Bill Clinton's presidency endowing chairs, professors and student scholarships, hijacking our universities, perverting societal values and turning our children against our country and us. Through America's open southern border, their "asymmetric warfare" smuggles huge quantities of fentanyl from China that kill 90,000 Americans a year. While under Biden millions have infiltrated in groups of military-aged men. The CCP has weaponized social media apps such as TikTok to promote self-mutilation, drug use and hostile Marxist ideologies among our university aged youth.
They bribe our elected and appointed officials. They pay people to riot in our streets, block roads, bridges and even airports. They have openly started shouting "Death to America" in New York, Chicago and Michigan. Our governments and institutions are failing us. The shrugs from the global elite class are an invitation to the enemies of the Free World to exploit the disarray currently underway. Our enemies are determined. They are relentless. They have a plan and are executing it every day.
That's another aspect - New York, Illinois and California are all set to lose seats following 2030 census. Not sure how having a bunch more minority members in the House helps the Democrats ...
Agreed, BUT voters fleeing these states need to re-evaluate their positions and realize WHY they needed to move. In other words, Democrats shouldn’t turn a red state blue.
Calm.down. after decades of Democrats pouring money into Texas claiming it will turn blue, trump got closer to flipping new york than the Giggler got to Texas or Florida.
An article from Tennessee lamented the fact that population growth in rural Tennessee was diluting the liberal influence in the state from Nashville and Memphis making Tennessee even more conservative
Like the Great migration after British India achieved independence, we will see conservatives fleeing blue states and liberals fleeing red states.
The Supreme Court upheld Tennessee's ban on juvenile gender affirming care. That will cause liberals that want to mutilate their kids to leave red states
I'm from Nashville & still have family there, and I live in Memphis----these are the two cities that vote blue but for different reasons. All the libs hate it that the state is red and will never be blue. Dems are way too radical now..Nashville filled with NY, CA, IL, and they destroyed the housing market.
Good analysis. I'll add the NYC mayoral contest that went to Mamdani. He is now the face of the Democrat party - a wealthy unabashed communist, antisemite, and foreign-born hater of America. Yeah, that will play well across the country.
Broadcast his smiling mug everywhere. This is your Democrat party, America.
True, but some context is missing. A few examples:
About a week ago, Rep. Mikie Sherrill (D-NJ) was polling 1-5 points higher than her competition but once all votes were tallied, won by 13 points.
Abigail Spanberger (D-VA), dispatched her opponent, Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears (R-VA) by 15, exceeding polls by 5+points, which is outside the margin of error.
Elsewhere in Virginia, it was a Democratic sweep. In fact, one could call it a Democratic wave. Ghazala Hashmi will take over as lieutenant governor; she also won by double digits, outperforming Republican John Reid by 11.4 points, 55.6% to 44.2%. Hashmi will become the first person of Asian descent, and the first Muslim, to hold statewide office in Virginia. This is not your grandparents' Confederacy, folks.
And in the AG race, it turns out that AG-elect Jay Jones (D) didn't actually have that much reason to be nervous. The race was tight early in the evening, primarily because the votes from white, rural areas were counted first. However, Jones eventually pulled away, defeating incumbent Republican Jason Miyares by 6.6 points, 53.1% to 46.5%. Not quite as big a margin as for Jones' two new colleagues, but still a comfortable margin.
The really blue-wavy part of the Virginia election, even more so than the laughers for governor and lieutenant governor, was the elections for the legislature. As in New Jersey, the state Senate was not up, but the House of Delegates was. And there, the GOP really took it in the teeth. The Democrats flipped 13 seats (with one still left to be called), giving them a majority of at least 64-35.
Mamdani won the NYC election comfortably, taking 50.4% of the vote to 41.6% for Cuomo and 7.1% for Republican Curtis Sliwa. Obviously, that means that even if all the Sliwa voters had migrated to Cuomo (something they were clearly not interested in actually doing), it wouldn't have changed the outcome.
There were six other major cities, besides New York and Minneapolis, that held mayoral elections yesterday, and it was a sweep for the Democrats (or, in some cases, the Democrats who had to pretend to be nonpartisan). In Cincinnati, incumbent Aftab Pureval (NP, but really D) won by 54.4 points. In Atlanta, incumbent Andre Dickens (NP, but really D) won by 78.9 points. In Detroit, Mary Sheffield (NP, but really D) won by 54.4 points. In Pittsburgh, Corey O'Connor (D) won by 75 points. In Buffalo, Sean Ryan (D) won by 49.3 points. And in Jersey City, the top five finishers were all Democrats pretending to be nonpartisan. The top two, Councilman James Solomon (29%) and former governor Jim McGreevey (25.4%), will advance to a runoff. Obviously, large cities tend to skew very Democratic, but even allowing for that, these are some very large margins.
Prop 50 passed by a wide margin in CA. CBS did an exit poll where they asked "Yes on 50" voters to identify the reasons they voted yes and well, 75% voted yes to oppose Donald Trump, 70% to oppose Republicans: 70%, 62% to support Democrats & 41% to support Newsom.
I don't know how next year will turn out. Too many unknowns. But the big redistricting push is also supercharged by the VRA case currently before SCOTUS. I don't know what the court will decide and whether it will be in time to redraw districts for the midterms, but that is a big wildcard there.
Women voted overwhelmingly for Jay Jones. Really? A man that says out loud he wants to watch a child die in their mother's arm because their father is Republican. Women in this country are quite literally insane. What kind of a human does that?
NOVA is full of well-credentialed PMC girlbosses who haven’t worked a fucking day in their lives. They are thoroughly divorced from reality and accountability, and even more heavily conditioned to reflexively forgive a non-white Democrat for almost anything.
It's funny that they cried about how the nation wasn't ready to elect a black woman, and then when given the choice between a black woman who was a USMC vet, and a white lady CIA spook, they chose the CIA spook.
As a NoVA resident, I resent this gross oversimplification of our accepting, diverse, inclusive and tolerant community. Everyone is welcome here: criminals, the mentally ill, the homeless...just not Republicans.
"It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy.” -- Geworge Orwell, 1984
They also figured strongly in the early origins of just about every religion you could mention. They are really great footsoldiers in enforcing orthodoxy. Women create social fabric so it only makes sense.
When a bunch of emotionally and physically unattractive, entitled women are brainwashed by our universities, don’t be surprised by the way they act and vote
Ironically, he will become the AG of a Commonwealth that got rid of the death penalty. Violent criminals deserve 3 hots and a cot for the rest of their lives, at taxpayer expense of course, but political opponents AND their families deserve death. Yeah...got it.
I have read "The Rise and Fall of the 3rd Reich". Every page. I have read "I Will Bear Witness" by Victor Klemperer. Every page. And I am frightened. The Communists control the media and the educational system from kindergarten through college. I am a Psychologist/Scientist, and I understand the power of indoctrination and 24/7 propaganda. Like Josef Goebbles said, you can tell a lie 1000 times, and it becomes the truth. Scientists call it The Principle of Illusory Truth. That is why the young people can support something so absurd as Islam. And why John Brennan can lie into your face about the existence of the Hunter Biden laptop. I have a copy of the contents, published by Marco Polo. (now scrubbed from the Internet). And the first pages are the forensic analysis, signed and sealed, because they knew it would be challenged.
I moved to Vermont to help the kids with the grand kids, and I read the local papers. So I find little comfort in the relatively small group of educated people that constitute Sasha's audience. Vermont has two groups that dominate state politics: Liberal and Progressive. That's right. Liberal is not Left enough. You should read the contributions of the citizens. Yeah, and they loves their Bernie. It's sickening.
Mao said: "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." Our own Communists understand this. They rid themselves of that pesky Charlie Kirk who was getting in the way of their indoctrination efforts, and Trump lives only due to a random miracle. 3rd Reich revisited. Do you remember the bilateral commission that was going to get to the bottom of that assassination attempt? Yeah, right. We are only a few centimeters away from a Kamala Harris presidency. And after 4 yrs. of a senile mannequin masquerading as a POTUS. You had a puppet POTUS and VP staring you in the face. Yeah, they can get away with that. And more.
It's naive to think that millions of illegal immigrants were chauffeured here out of benevolence. Instead, they were ushered in to protest and vote, illegally or not. That's why the Democrats are fighting so hard to keep them, and to eliminated standards for voting. So that their votes give the illusion of "Democracy". Have you been following the events in England? That's what you get from inviting millions of people with a completely different culture.
So yeah, I'm frightened. And I'm not convinced that this coordinated attack on our country can be fought with words. Didn't work for the Germans or the Chinese.
Nah, you don't need to usher illegals to protest and vote, too much work. I live in a Hispanic area with a high percentage of non-citizens, those protestors (predominantly white) never come here. You may think they protest ICE... but they prefer upper class, safe areas. As per voting, I'm a witness that people who swear they have never voted, have a voting record. It's sufficient to have somebody's name and address to register and vote for them. In the area run by the Democratic party elections and ballots are under their full control.
And here comes the 4th Turning, we're living in it, but we can't see the end. The Communists will never stop, they'll just keep coming, and now New York falls. I'm glad I live in the South with lots of Christians and gun-owners.
Hang in there. The sun will come up tomorrow. There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in their philosophy. Keep up the good work, the work for good, Sasha.
Knew this would happen. The Republicans are busy trying to clean up messes that most people don’t really care about because they involve rational thought and a close look at the rule of law. But honestly, did anyone expect VA & NJ to go red?
The White House and Republicans in Congress need to learn to play the game better - although it will be hard with MSM totally in the pockets of liberals and without the mobilizing power of Charlie Kirk.
With MSM the answer is simple. Destroy them. Eliminate their ability to propagandize. Do it by whatever means possible, short of violence. The courts work great. Court-shop, like the Left does, to get the most favorable venue and then sue them until they are bankrupt, like Trump has taught
True, but you must admit the MSM, the 3 major networks, CNN & MSNBC are dying!
NYT & WAPO are all but dead as people under age 60 do not read print newspaper, and cable news is dying. My son moved and never even bothered to hook up his flat screen tv....everything is on a personal device.
You mean, like, actually impose the economic agenda they set forward? Instead of, oh, say illegally sending in ICE agents to major cities and unconstitutionally blowing up boats in the Atlantic Ocean?
Could you please explain how it’s illegal to send American immigration enforcement agents to American cities?
In fact, since they are generally working out of long established offices, it isn’t even really sending, but still, please explain what is illegal about federal enforcement of federal immigration law.
Nonsense. I'm just following the Bill of Rights. It's a good read, you ought to try it in your spare time. Wait until you get to the 5th Amendment, which entitles all people to due process of law, which is clearly not being exercised in this instance.
If you're anti-ICE, you're also anti-law-enforcement. And your snarky tone is just like waving the giant flag of LIBTARD. In Memphis, we LOVE the task force, they are cleaning up the streets & putting criminals in jail where they belong.
It’s frustrating to watch the dem party pull a mini pandemic 2.0 with the government shut down. They have no problem hurting ppl to achieve their political ends. It’s what the party is designed to do. Not solve problems. Manipulate the optics to make their party the savior. Republicans are rule followers and talkers. Democrats break every rule and lie.
Yes Democrats won. That’s why cities are a mess and will only get worse. There’s no one else to blame for the state of every major city in this country. They impoverish and terrorize their residents with crime and backwards anti growth policies then block any efforts to resolve the problems they solve with fear mongering and machine politics.
To the average democrat politician, pain is the preferred method of "getting out the vote." They simply don't care how many people have to suffer and even die to achieve their objective. Pete said there would have to be pain at the gas pump to force people to go electric. Schumer keeps the government shut down to hurt SNAP recipients to use that against Trump in particular, republicans in general. It's all about causing pain and then using it.
I'm not sure what other results you could have expected. NYC and California are reliably Democrat and trending Marxist. New Jersey and Virginia are solid TDS-land.
These results have no national implications whatsoever.
Republicans win one election and then go sit on their hands.
The Left never stops. This is their reason for being.
In boxing they say, "Kill the head and the body dies." With the murder of Charlie Kirk the urgency of personal get-out-the-vote disappeared because he was no longer there to lead it.
I've been telling people that the Deep State is still incomparably mighty and can still deal death. We saw it tonight from "sea to shining sea."
Get your heads out of your butts, MAGA! The Left is coming for you. Their bloodlust is a thirst which never dies.
unfortunately....too many influential people took the tragedy of charlie kirk and turned it into a money making enterprise . so many are just jockeying to take his crown
Keep your powder dry and ammo up. The Marxists are coming. Hang a few from the nearest lamppost. Let the bodies rot where they hang. If we don't kill them, they will certainly kill us.
The JFK Democrats barely exist anymore. They have fallen so far from "Ask not...." and "I have a dream..." they are not recognizable anymore. Can you imagine a majority of people voting for someone who promises a rent freeze? The naivety is astounding.
I'm sad that my local city election didn't turn out the way so many residents fought so hard for change.
So it will be the same ol' crap at city hall and we can't stop fighting. We'll have to continue to go to ALL city meetings to keep an eye on them. In two years we'll have to campaign again for change.
Since Trump can’t run again and if the Dems win the house back in 2026 and the impeachments will begin Trump should turn Voight loose and destroy all the deep state he can. Yeah they will sue but since they will impeach anyway tell the courts to go f themselves. Declare an insurrection and turn the military loose. Just get the next Civil War over with for goodness sake.
If the DOJ just would prosecute ALL the many Dems who did truly illegal acts over the last 10 or so years AND get out to the public ALL the details of THE ILLEGAL ACTIVITY, before the midterms, that would be a help. As for a civil war, IF the Dems take Congress (esp. the House) next year, we need to start to divide the country in two, which will stop a lot of bloodshed from a civil war. Although with their constant love of bloodshed and death, I'd armor up anyway.
It would help with a lot of voters but I’ve decided that there are way too many ignorant people out there. I don’t know if it’s our educational system or just ignorant people.
The demoralizing will continue until the GOP stops handing the dems the guns to shoot them with. They were played by the shutdown/ Obamacare/ snap hoax. The best revenge now is to eliminate snap and require citizens and re registration
Right now voters on the Right are caught up in a civil war between MAGA and the Groypers, with the latter determined to burn it all down if they can't attain total power. Exactly the same as the Proggie/Marxist fringe of the Left.
Right. No logic. When Mohammed rapes their daughter, they might wake up. Or not. Momdani will give the man a medal, a gold star, and huge bonus for doing that to their daughter. Exactly like London today for the last several years with the little English girls. The oil sheiks in the Middle East are paying the bills for that.
“Nothing is solved, nothing is fixed, nothing has changed.” — there are only two spheres and no common points of consensus, no common ground, no crossing of party lines. The Democrat-Socialist universe demands one-party rule and one-party government and they are willing to commit abject political skullduggery to achieve their objectives. The Empire strikes back — Zohran and Lord Obama had a big night.
Blue wins in blue states. Yawn. What is new? The Left has been indoctrinating their base for decades to "activate" and hate their enemy before and during elections. What we see in off years like 2025, when the GOP does nothing to activate its base, is what happened tonight. Until the right gets as militant and relentless, and even drops competitive ethics to lie to its base about how evil and dangerous the Left is, nothing will change. Conservatives can no longer play the political game politely. A lot more animosity is required to win
Yes, they do. The white ones can't say so because they're white. So they leave it to the black man to articulate what they all feel. But yes, they want us all dead.
Meh. The Democrats won in states they have voter registration advantages in - and, in fact, most of the races were far closer than they should have been.

And even in California, what did the Democrats actually gain? By pretending Texas wasn't redistricting to match California, New York and Illinois' own existing radical gerrymandering, Newsom managed to motivate North Carolina, Missouri and Indiana to follow his lead - all but erasing any Democratic gains in California. And since Democratic-controlled states are already so heavily gerrymandered, there aren't really any more Democratic seats to fabricate.
Look for more red states to now jump into the game and add a net gain of Republican-leaning House districts before next year. (And pending lawsuits against California Prop. 50 may upend it yet - the language is openly partisan, in violation of the state Constitution, and the Legislature openly ignored rules requiring a bill be introduced and finalized in time for all legislators to have time to study it.)
If Prop. 50 is overturned while the Republican redistricting stands up in court, don't think other Democrats won't hold Newsom to blame for that mess ....
VA is a special case because of all of the unpaid federal workers in NoVa, who are already predisposed to blame the GOP for all of their ills.
Today Trump should fire the lot of those deemed non essential. Not tomorrow- today.
Unwoke in Idaho: Can you imagine what a hot civil-war on American soil would look like? I posit America is under attack, from without and within.

Then it’s very important Trump gets on the stick and moves on this crap like the speed of light. Stop the $*#&$ trolling and move!!!!
Dems winning in deep-blue states is dog bites man.
I like your half FULL glass of lemonade! Not sure how much re districting will work when people are fleeing those blue states.
That's another aspect - New York, Illinois and California are all set to lose seats following 2030 census. Not sure how having a bunch more minority members in the House helps the Democrats ...
Agreed, BUT voters fleeing these states need to re-evaluate their positions and realize WHY they needed to move. In other words, Democrats shouldn’t turn a red state blue.

YES!!!
Like only voting once every 4 years?
Good analysis. I'll add the NYC mayoral contest that went to Mamdani. He is now the face of the Democrat party - a wealthy unabashed communist, antisemite, and foreign-born hater of America. Yeah, that will play well across the country.

So blue stayed blue but by MOARRR.

Correct , just something to make theater about. The demorats communist party loves a production.
Tgey won in states that are losing population.
I hope you're right!
Women voted overwhelmingly for Jay Jones. Really? A man that says out loud he wants to watch a child die in their mother's arm because their father is Republican. Women in this country are quite literally insane. What kind of a human does that?
These idiots will be well represented.
NOVA is full of well-credentialed PMC girlbosses who haven’t worked a fucking day in their lives. They are thoroughly divorced from reality and accountability, and even more heavily conditioned to reflexively forgive a non-white Democrat for almost anything.
Watching them react to the impact of sharia and dhimmitude will, for a while at least, be most amusing.
It's funny that they cried about how the nation wasn't ready to elect a black woman, and then when given the choice between a black woman who was a USMC vet, and a white lady CIA spook, they chose the CIA spook.
It’s Martha’s Vineyard everywhere.
As a NoVA resident, I resent this gross oversimplification of our accepting, diverse, inclusive and tolerant community. Everyone is welcome here: criminals, the mentally ill, the homeless...just not Republicans.
These women think nothing of aborting their own children, so why would they care about someone else’s?
If you remember what Orwell said about women and radical politics, it will all make sense.
What did Orwell say?
"It was always the women, and above all the young ones, who were the most bigoted adherents of the Party, the swallowers of slogans, the amateur spies and nosers−out of unorthodoxy.” -- Geworge Orwell, 1984
Being a woman, I hate this but currently, it's true. Especially the young white women, the AWFLs. They're so completely full of s*%t.
They also figured strongly in the early origins of just about every religion you could mention. They are really great footsoldiers in enforcing orthodoxy. Women create social fabric so it only makes sense.
i think he said they were fiercely loyal to the party
Is is some sort of wierd fantasy? They all seem to want King Kong to conquer them. Just like the movie from the 1930’s.
When a bunch of emotionally and physically unattractive, entitled women are brainwashed by our universities, don’t be surprised by the way they act and vote
Ironically, he will become the AG of a Commonwealth that got rid of the death penalty. Violent criminals deserve 3 hots and a cot for the rest of their lives, at taxpayer expense of course, but political opponents AND their families deserve death. Yeah...got it.
Sue: I am so very grateful that I DO NOT understand the thinking of people who would vote for Mr Jones. I must remember Romans 8:28
We know that in everything God works for good with those who love him, who are called according to his purpose.
Romans 8:28
Peace, Dr Tooth Elf
I wonder how many women who voted for him had abortions.
AWFL's and those younger generations that have been university indoctrinated.
I have read "The Rise and Fall of the 3rd Reich". Every page. I have read "I Will Bear Witness" by Victor Klemperer. Every page. And I am frightened.

I moved to Vermont to help the kids with the grand kids, and I read the local papers. So I find little comfort in the relatively small group of educated people that constitute Sasha's audience. Vermont has two groups that dominate state politics: Liberal and Progressive. That's right. Liberal is not Left enough. You should read the contributions of the citizens. Yeah, and they loves their Bernie. It's sickening.
Mao said: "Political power grows out of the barrel of a gun." Our own Communists understand this. They rid themselves of that pesky Charlie Kirk who was getting in the way of their indoctrination efforts, and Trump lives only due to a random miracle. 3rd Reich revisited. Do you remember the bilateral commission that was going to get to the bottom of that assassination attempt? Yeah, right. We are only a few centimeters away from a Kamala Harris presidency. And after 4 yrs. of a senile mannequin masquerading as a POTUS. You had a puppet POTUS and VP staring you in the face. Yeah, they can get away with that. And more.
It's naive to think that millions of illegal immigrants were chauffeured here out of benevolence. Instead, they were ushered in to protest and vote, illegally or not. That's why the Democrats are fighting so hard to keep them, and to eliminated standards for voting. So that their votes give the illusion of "Democracy". Have you been following the events in England? That's what you get from inviting millions of people with a completely different culture.
So yeah, I'm frightened. And I'm not convinced that this coordinated attack on our country can be fought with words. Didn't work for the Germans or the Chinese.
Nah, you don't need to usher illegals to protest and vote, too much work. I live in a Hispanic area with a high percentage of non-citizens, those protestors (predominantly white) never come here. You may think they protest ICE... but they prefer upper class, safe areas. As per voting, I'm a witness that people who swear they have never voted, have a voting record. It's sufficient to have somebody's name and address to register and vote for them. In the area run by the Democratic party elections and ballots are under their full control.
Exactly
Democrats churn the outrage and violent marching
First indoctrination in schools
Then payments from all the NGO’s with taxpayer dollars to run around and protest whatever
is the flavor of the day
This IS the job — just like BLM

And here comes the 4th Turning, we're living in it, but we can't see the end. The Communists will never stop, they'll just keep coming, and now New York falls. I'm glad I live in the South with lots of Christians and gun-owners.
wonderfully said!
We have met the enemy and it is us.
Maybe talking won’t work. But we can’t stop doing it.
Hang in there. The sun will come up tomorrow. There are more things in heaven and earth than are dreamt of in their philosophy. Keep up the good work, the work for good, Sasha.
Knew this would happen. The Republicans are busy trying to clean up messes that most people don’t really care about because they involve rational thought and a close look at the rule of law. But honestly, did anyone expect VA & NJ to go red?
The White House and Republicans in Congress need to learn to play the game better - although it will be hard with MSM totally in the pockets of liberals and without the mobilizing power of Charlie Kirk.
With MSM the answer is simple. Destroy them. Eliminate their ability to propagandize. Do it by whatever means possible, short of violence. The courts work great. Court-shop, like the Left does, to get the most favorable venue and then sue them until they are bankrupt, like Trump has taught
True, but you must admit the MSM, the 3 major networks, CNN & MSNBC are dying!
NYT & WAPO are all but dead as people under age 60 do not read print newspaper, and cable news is dying. My son moved and never even bothered to hook up his flat screen tv....everything is on a personal device.
They tell so many lies, at the very least, they shouldn't be getting a dime of gov money.
the republicans will never learn. i don't know what comes next
You mean, like, actually impose the economic agenda they set forward? Instead of, oh, say illegally sending in ICE agents to major cities and unconstitutionally blowing up boats in the Atlantic Ocean?
Nah. That's crazy.
Could you please explain how it’s illegal to send American immigration enforcement agents to American cities?
In fact, since they are generally working out of long established offices, it isn’t even really sending, but still, please explain what is illegal about federal enforcement of federal immigration law.
It's called the 10th Amendment. It was unconstitutional when Obama did it in Ferguson, too. I don't play partisan games here.
You did not explain anything. Screaming “10th amendment damnit!” Isn’t an explanation.
You claim the 10th amendment makes federal enforcement of federal immigration law illegal.
You are deranged.
Nonsense. I'm just following the Bill of Rights. It's a good read, you ought to try it in your spare time. Wait until you get to the 5th Amendment, which entitles all people to due process of law, which is clearly not being exercised in this instance.
You’ve now changed your claim, which adds dishonest to deranged.
You also haven’t explained anything. You have not explained how deporting people with final deportation orders violates due process.
You are nothing but a shill and a troll, and disgusting.
If you're anti-ICE, you're also anti-law-enforcement. And your snarky tone is just like waving the giant flag of LIBTARD. In Memphis, we LOVE the task force, they are cleaning up the streets & putting criminals in jail where they belong.
Oh, I'm left of those fake lefties.
March forward with Trump. If only the Republicans would listen. If they don't they will become irrelevant.
It’s frustrating to watch the dem party pull a mini pandemic 2.0 with the government shut down. They have no problem hurting ppl to achieve their political ends. It’s what the party is designed to do. Not solve problems. Manipulate the optics to make their party the savior. Republicans are rule followers and talkers. Democrats break every rule and lie.
Yes Democrats won. That’s why cities are a mess and will only get worse. There’s no one else to blame for the state of every major city in this country. They impoverish and terrorize their residents with crime and backwards anti growth policies then block any efforts to resolve the problems they solve with fear mongering and machine politics.
There's no income stream to be found in solved problems, so.
To the average democrat politician, pain is the preferred method of "getting out the vote." They simply don't care how many people have to suffer and even die to achieve their objective. Pete said there would have to be pain at the gas pump to force people to go electric. Schumer keeps the government shut down to hurt SNAP recipients to use that against Trump in particular, republicans in general. It's all about causing pain and then using it.
You always deflect.
Once I see HL3, i stop reading the comment and string. You are so right - it’s just same old, same old.
Excellent advice!
Stay Useful. Idiot.
HL3: was your post just to prove the point made by Spchls1? If so, good job!
It’s refreshing to see you admit that you are shit.
You admitted who you are. No one cares what garbage you claim about people you hate.
I'm not sure what other results you could have expected. NYC and California are reliably Democrat and trending Marxist. New Jersey and Virginia are solid TDS-land.
These results have no national implications whatsoever.
It's a lifestyle brand for them (they/them?).
Yet
Republicans win one election and then go sit on their hands.
The Left never stops. This is their reason for being.
In boxing they say, "Kill the head and the body dies." With the murder of Charlie Kirk the urgency of personal get-out-the-vote disappeared because he was no longer there to lead it.
I've been telling people that the Deep State is still incomparably mighty and can still deal death. We saw it tonight from "sea to shining sea."
Get your heads out of your butts, MAGA! The Left is coming for you. Their bloodlust is a thirst which never dies.
unfortunately....too many influential people took the tragedy of charlie kirk and turned it into a money making enterprise . so many are just jockeying to take his crown
Keep your powder dry and ammo up. The Marxists are coming. Hang a few from the nearest lamppost. Let the bodies rot where they hang. If we don't kill them, they will certainly kill us.
The JFK Democrats barely exist anymore. They have fallen so far from "Ask not...." and "I have a dream..." they are not recognizable anymore. Can you imagine a majority of people voting for someone who promises a rent freeze? The naivety is astounding.
they voted a man who wanted to watch his colleagues wife watch her children die!
Hard to believe, isn't it?
Damned shame about that. Like Maher says, the contemporary Democratic Party is a ghost party.
If you have not worked to recover from a stroke, please don’t call someone who has a wimp. Simply disagree without the ad hominem. Can you?
He Gave us government unions something even Roosterpoot wouldn't touch
This is the writhing of a snake when its head is cut off
It looks scary but it soon ends
I'm sad that my local city election didn't turn out the way so many residents fought so hard for change.
So it will be the same ol' crap at city hall and we can't stop fighting. We'll have to continue to go to ALL city meetings to keep an eye on them. In two years we'll have to campaign again for change.
It's so frustrating!!! 😡
Agree!!!
Since Trump can’t run again and if the Dems win the house back in 2026 and the impeachments will begin Trump should turn Voight loose and destroy all the deep state he can. Yeah they will sue but since they will impeach anyway tell the courts to go f themselves. Declare an insurrection and turn the military loose. Just get the next Civil War over with for goodness sake.
If the DOJ just would prosecute ALL the many Dems who did truly illegal acts over the last 10 or so years AND get out to the public ALL the details of THE ILLEGAL ACTIVITY, before the midterms, that would be a help. As for a civil war, IF the Dems take Congress (esp. the House) next year, we need to start to divide the country in two, which will stop a lot of bloodshed from a civil war. Although with their constant love of bloodshed and death, I'd armor up anyway.
It would help with a lot of voters but I’ve decided that there are way too many ignorant people out there. I don’t know if it’s our educational system or just ignorant people.
BOTH.
it sounds ( we can only pray) they may be building an actual case about so many of these treasonous stooges
The demoralizing will continue until the GOP stops handing the dems the guns to shoot them with. They were played by the shutdown/ Obamacare/ snap hoax. The best revenge now is to eliminate snap and require citizens and re registration
Right now voters on the Right are caught up in a civil war between MAGA and the Groypers, with the latter determined to burn it all down if they can't attain total power. Exactly the same as the Proggie/Marxist fringe of the Left.
Just be honest about being a communist/socialist and wanting our constitutional republic to be gone.
The beginning of FAFO. The Men Who Wanted to be Left Alone will rise.
Enjoy your victory while it lasts.
I have just one question, and I’ll repeat it, often, in the next few days. Simply…
…what the hell is wrong with people ???
It’s obvious there is no longer any common sense. It’s obvious there are too many who are missing brain cells. Where is the logic in any of this ?
Right. No logic. When Mohammed rapes their daughter, they might wake up. Or not. Momdani will give the man a medal, a gold star, and huge bonus for doing that to their daughter. Exactly like London today for the last several years with the little English girls. The oil sheiks in the Middle East are paying the bills for that.
Before that happens, they'll enact gun confiscation, so no one shoots the vermin.
Yep…we say this everyday. How can people be so STUPID!?
“Nothing is solved, nothing is fixed, nothing has changed.” — there are only two spheres and no common points of consensus, no common ground, no crossing of party lines. The Democrat-Socialist universe demands one-party rule and one-party government and they are willing to commit abject political skullduggery to achieve their objectives. The Empire strikes back — Zohran and Lord Obama had a big night.
Blue wins in blue states. Yawn. What is new? The Left has been indoctrinating their base for decades to "activate" and hate their enemy before and during elections. What we see in off years like 2025, when the GOP does nothing to activate its base, is what happened tonight. Until the right gets as militant and relentless, and even drops competitive ethics to lie to its base about how evil and dangerous the Left is, nothing will change. Conservatives can no longer play the political game politely. A lot more animosity is required to win
“The Jay Jones story wasn’t a controversy because most Democrats agree with him.”
Enough said!
i'm sad that agree with you
Yes, they do. The white ones can't say so because they're white. So they leave it to the black man to articulate what they all feel. But yes, they want us all dead.
