AOC Becomes De Facto House Minority Leader
Posted By: gaboy, 9/22/2025 1:27:06 AM
Before last Friday’s House vote on a symbolic resolution condemning the assassination of Charlie Kirk and all forms of political violence while honoring his life, the purported leaders of the Democratic Caucus informed its members that they would support the measure. Yet, in a truly vile floor speech prior to the vote, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y) called the resolution “reckless” and claimed Kirk’s “rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.” In the end, less than half of the Democrats voted for the resolution. The rest stood with AOC.

The left is in the middle of a full-blown manic response over Jimmy Kimmel's show being indefinitely preempted after a decision by affiliates and ABC. This followed Kimmel's disgraceful remarks alleging MAGA was desperately trying to spin the narrative that Kirk's accused killer wasn't one of them. That flew in the face of facts that the authorities have laid out regarding the case, and frankly, could deceive the public. ABC decided to pull the show after its Nexstar affiliate called the comments "offensive." That sparked a meltdown from Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY), who blamed Trump.
Generally speaking, when people jump to the conclusion that there was a conspiracy to commit some heinous act, it is a mistake to jump down that rabbit hole without first seeing a lot of evidence that it hides something dangerous. So when people started whispering about a conspiracy to kill Kirk, I thought that it was likely just paranoid musings that led in that direction. After all, lone crazy people do things often enough.
But in this case it is beginning to look like this was a Trantifa conspiracy, and the FBI is seriously investigating links between trans activists who explicitly said online things that
The Dumbest Take on Iryna's Murder
3 replies
As liberals flail around to find a new excuse to ignore the horrific murder of Iryna Slutskaya in Charlotte, a new set of excuses has popped up: Republicans only care about her death because she is white, and if we really cared about Ukrainians, we would support Ukraine even harder in its war against Russia. (Snip for tweet)It's a variation on "Republicans pounce," but in some ways it is more revealing than the more direct version that POLITICO and other media outlets chose as the frame for the issue.
It is true that race is a component in the outrage--after all, the killer muttered several

A man slashed a woman’s throat in Charlotte, North Carolina, and the Democratic mayor released a statement expressing elaborate ritual sympathy for the poor, unhoused gentleman who was driven to this desperate act by the inadequacy of the government services that were available to him. Woman brutally murdered / “I want to be clear that I am not villainizing those who struggle with their mental health or those who are unhoused.” She said she didn’t fully understand the event yet because she hadn’t assessed the medical records of the poor man who stood up on a train and started carving up a stranger with a knife.
The Judicial Coup Is Collapsing
19 replies
Late last week NBC ran a “news” story featuring a dozen disgruntled federal judges whose rulings against various Trump administration policies have been stayed or overturned by the Supreme Court. These lower court judges, none of whom had the courage to allow NBC to name them in the article, bewailed the failure of SCOTUS to provide sufficient justification for ruling against them. It’s blindingly obvious, however, that the real issue they are whining about is the Court’s refusal to countenance their usurpation of the President’s Article II powers and frustrate implementation of his agenda.
CBS Deceptively Edits Kristi Noem Interview

After Promising to Fix Bias for Skydance Merger 10 replies
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Krist Noem appeared on the disgraced CBS News over the weekend and found herself deceptively edited by the far-left Sunday morning current affairs program Face the Nation.
When Skydance purchased Paramount Global (which included CBS News), it promised things would change, specifically at CBS News, which is only surpassed by CNN in peddling lies and conspiracy theories.
Well, meet the new boss…
Noem was asked a question about the credibly-accused wife beater/gang banger/human trafficker/child porn solicitor and illegal alien Kilmar Abrego Garcia, only to have the most vital part of her answer edited out of broadcast.

Whew, better late than never!
That was my first reaction to the news that President Trump intends to give Rudy Giuliani the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
The announcement followed the serious weekend car crash in New Hampshire that sent the 81-year-old Giuliani to the hospital.
Thankfully, his injuries, said to include a broken vertebrae, are not life-threatening and he has been released from the hospital.
A likely result is Trump’s presentation will focus almost exclusively on Giuliani’s greatest achievement: His stellar tenure as New York’s mayor.
Burning Question About Flag Desecration
5 replies
When President Trump signed his August 25th executive order setting guidelines under which burning an American flag can be prosecuted, we quickly learned how ignorant his critics are about the constitutional and cultural implications of desecrating this revered national symbol. Indeed, it appears that very few of these people actually read the President’s EO. It does not, as most Democrats and alleged experts insist, violate the 1989 Supreme Court ruling in Texas v. Johnson that flag burning is protected speech under the First Amendment.
Just eight years ago, in those halcyon days of 2017, millions of women took to the streets in pink “pussy” hats to protest the election of President Donald Trump, who they saw as an affront to women.
The Women’s March planted leftists’ enraged flag in the sand — and eight months later they swamped social media and America’s airwaves to excoriate sexual harassment in the workplace.
Protecting and believing women was the movement’s clarion call, with the hashtag #MeToo a symbol of women standing together against predators and abusers.And now, in 2025, they have once again taken to the streets to rally around . . . a credibly accused wife-beater.
President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday that he is working with Republican lawmakers to craft a new crime bill.
In a post on Truth Social, the president wrote, “Speaker Mike Johnson, and Leader John Thune, are working with me, and other Republicans, on a Comprehensive Crime Bill. It’s what our Country need, and NOW! More to follow. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!”
Trump had previously floated the idea of passing a new piece of legislation to curb crime in major cities across the country after federalizing law enforcement in Washington, DC.

Death Penalty for Kirk Assassin? Bad Idea
38 replies
I am not opposed to using the death penalty for specific heinous crimes. Certainly, it was warranted for Timothy McVeigh, and Charlie Kirk’s killing was indeed heinous. However, the alleged assassin is Tyler Robinson and that gives me pause, because there are thousands of Tylers out there ready to make him a martyr.
This hate-filled, deluded, brainwashed community has been groomed deliberately by a Machiavellian academia since the 1960s.
There was a time when public education institutions were staffed with unbiased professors and educated their students with genuine facts and encouraged independent thought. That was back then.
Jimmy Kimmel’s Show to Return to Air: Disney
33 replies
Jimmy Kimmel’s late-night show is returning to the air this week, Walt Disney Company said on Sept. 22.
“Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” the company said in a statement to news outlets. “It is a decision we made because we felt some of the comments were ill-timed and thus insensitive. We have spent the last days having thoughtful conversations with Jimmy, and after those conversations, we reached the decision to return the show on Tuesday.”
A Disney spokeswoman did not immediately return a request for comment.

President Trump signed an executive order Monday designating the shadowy, left-wing group Antifa a “domestic terrorist organization,” according to the White House.
The order comes after Trump teased slapping a terror label on the radical “anti-fascist” group last week.
“I hereby designate Antifa as a ‘domestic terrorist organization,’” read the president’s order. “All relevant executive departments and agencies shall utilize all applicable authorities to investigate, disrupt, and dismantle any and all illegal operations – especially those involving terrorist actions — conducted by Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa, or for which Antifa or any person claiming to act on behalf of Antifa provided material support,
Swedish professional protester Greta Thunberg has been unceremoniously dumped from a leadership board role in a Gaza-bound, anti-Israel “aid” flotilla as infighting and tensions roil the group.
The Jerusalem Post reports Thunberg, who joined a previous run at the Israeli naval blockade around Gaza in June, appeared on the Global Sumud Flotilla’s website as part of its leadership committee.
At least, that was until last Sunday. Now that posting has been removed.
Before setting sail earlier this month, Thunberg said: “This project is part of a global uprising of people standing up…
Jimmy Kimmel is getting back on the air. The ABC late-night host is returning to broadcast on Tuesday following a brief-but-monumental suspension that sparked a national debate over the Trump Administration’s pressure tactics and the modern limits and consequences of free speech. “Last Wednesday, we made the decision to suspend production on the show to avoid further inflaming a tense situation at an emotional moment for our country,” ABC parent The Walt Disney Company said in a statement Monday.
Sinclair Broadcast Group abruptly cancelled plans to air a Charlie Kirk tribute last week after the company’s local ABC affiliates received multiple violent threats — forcing the firm to move the program to YouTube just minutes before it was scheduled to begin, The Post has learned.
The Baltimore-based local TV giant, which owns more than 40 ABC affiliates, yanked the Charlie Kirk tribute late Friday after it was alerted to “local threats directed at specific local ABC stations resulting from [the] ABC suspension” of late-night host Jimmy Kimmel, a source close to the situation told The Post.

Just as the United Nations was preparing to begin its annual general assembly, which will be headlined by President Donald Trump on Tuesday, the United States Secret Service discovered a "massive hidden telecom network" in New York, with startling implications.
According to reports, the now-dismantled system included over 300 servers and 100,000 fake SIM cards that could have been used to overwhelm the 911 network and disable large portions of the city's cell tower network. The dismantled system consisted of over 300 SIM servers and more than 100,000 SIM cards spread within a 35-mile radius of the United Nations headquarters. Investigators say the network could have blacked out
ABC This Week usually opens with some manner of editorial commentary from its rotating hosts. Today was not the exception. Jon Karl opened the broadcast by rightfully and poignantly condemning the brutal assassination of TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. But there is one singular sentence that is a cause for concern and merits observation. Watch the statement below in its full context, with Karl saying: “The murder of Charlie Kirk was not a political act.” JON KARL: Good morning. Welcome to This Week. Later today family, friends, and supporters of Charlie Kirk will gather in Glendale, Arizona, for his memorial. The 31-year-old activist's murder shocked
Keith Olbermann appeared to threaten the life of Scott Jennings in an extreme way, telling him he's next to be killed and the FBI is now involved.
In a move that most would call insane following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk less than two weeks ago, Olbermann is ready to do anything but turn down the violent rhetoric, telling the Townhall.com host he's next to die.Olbermann's original post, before he deleted it, appeared to be a direct threat to the CNN contributor and Townhall.com host.
It can be seen below in the screenshot. Warning: it contains profanity.
"You're next, mother ……" Olbermann wrote in a reply to Jennings.

for Jerry Nadler’s House seat and experts
say he has ‘a shot’ 18 replies
The grandson of John F. Kennedy is mulling a run for Congress in Manhattan, and he may have “a shot” at winning the Democratic primary next year, according to political observers.
Jack Schlossberg, 32, is best known for his online trolling of various prominent people and unhinged social media posts.
He has impersonated First Lady Melania Trump and frequently rails against his cousin, Robert Kennedy Jr, the Secretary of Health and Human Services. At one point he imitated RFK Jr.’s spasmodic dysphonia, which sometimes makes it difficult for him to speak.
He is said to be eyeing Democratic Rep. Jerry Nadler’s seat on the Upper West Side
France and Saudi Arabia hope to use this year’s gathering of world leaders at the United Nations General Assembly and the increasingly horrific war in the Gaza Strip to inject new urgency into the quest for a two-state solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict.
Those efforts include a new road map for eventual Palestinian statehood in territories Israel seized in the 1967 Mideast war, and moves by several Western countries to join a global majority in recognizing such a state before it has been established.
Britain, Canada and Australia formally recognized a Palestinian state on Sunday, joining nearly 150 countries that have already done so,
