America’s Fanatical Left Wing Mayors
Are a Malignant Threat

This week the Democrat mayor of Arcadia, CA pled guilty to charges of acting as an illegal agent of the People’s Republic of China. Prosecutors alleged that from 2020–2022 (pre-mayor but continuing into her time in office), she and an associate operated a website promoting pro-China propaganda at the direction of PRC officials, without registering as a foreign agent. She faces at up to 10 years in prison for the crime, and it raises questions about how many more US mayors are on the payroll of foreign governments. But this scandal, like most scandals surrounding Democrats, will probably be erased from public discussion and forgotten within days.

Your thoughts, comments, and ideas are always welcome here. But we ask you to please be mindful and respectful. Threatening or crude language doesn't persuade anybody and makes the conversation less enjoyable for fellow L.Dotters.

So true and also applies to states - FTA: "The common reaction among many conservatives when they come across such news is to dismiss it as predictable. "The idiots living in that city got exactly what they voted for..." is the often heard retort. The implication being that it's "not our problem" and that leftists should be allowed to rot in the hellholes they created for themselves. But the truth is, it is a problem, for the entire country."

Rather than just denouncing the mayors we should focus on why and how they get elected to office. As NYC shows a majority of citizens certainly don’t vote for them. Republican/Conservative apathy is something we can act on.

The chaos the Commiecrats facilitate won't be contained in the political borders of 'The Cities'. When there's nothing left to steal or burn, the move will be to the ex-urbs and eventually rural areas. When it does, don't expect the law to side with the homeowners who handle it themselves.

If one assumes that the elections are actually fair in those cities (a highly questionable assumption) the only way this changes is when the voters decide that they have had enough and vote for a change. Doesn't seem likely in those cities since the voters seem to like wallowing in crime and corruption, and probably, the voting system is so rigged that the crooks in power control the outcomes, not the voters.

Justice Department sues DC Bar over alleged
weaponization of attorney discipline

The Justice Department filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday against the District of Columbia Bar’s disciplinary authorities, alleging that the attorney discipline process has been improperly used to investigate and penalize federal government lawyers for actions taken in their official capacities. At the center of the dispute is an ongoing disciplinary case involving former Assistant Attorney General Jeffrey Clark, who faced scrutiny over his role in discussions surrounding the 2020 presidential election and a draft letter concerning allegations of election fraud in Georgia. According to the Justice Department, the letter was never finalized or sent, and the disciplinary proceedings improperly target internal executive branch deliberations.

The nations of Europe are suffering from the invasion of economic migrants, who are overwhelmingly Muslim, and who arrive hoping to take advantage of every benefit the generous welfare states of Western Europe provide. These include free or greatly subsidized housing, free medical care, free education including language tuition, unemployment benefits even without a prior employment history, family allowances, and more. At least a hundred billion euros a year is being spent on these migrants across the continent; Germany alone spends more than 30 billion euros on migrants. Meanwhile, cuts are made to government spending on the indigenous elderly and poor. These Muslim migrants, with a handful of exceptions, have

There’s a pattern here. In Maine, Socialist Senate candidate Graham Platner, who claims to be a working class oysterman, is a rich kid who isn’t an oysterman, and in Michigan, Abdul El-Sayed, whose whole pitch for office is claiming to be a doctor and running on implementing socialized medicine… has no medical license and barely ever practiced. Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed for years has publicly said he’s a physician — but there’s overwhelming evidence that he’s had no experience as a licensed medical doctor. This April, he gave an interview to a local TV journalist where he talked up his credentials as a physician multiple times.

A Pennsylvania House candidate endorsed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D., N.Y.), Rep. Ro Khanna (D., Calif.), Sen. Chris Van Hollen (D., Md.), and other leading far-left figures has hailed notorious cop-killer Mumia Abu-Jamal as one of several "Black freedom fighters" and "elderly political prisoners" and called for his release from prison. Chris Rabb (D.), a five-term Pennsylvania state representative running to represent the state's Third Congressional District, cosigned a letter from the Philadelphia Democratic Socialists of America last month urging Gov. Josh Shapiro (D.) to free the 71-year-old Abu-Jamal from prison, where the former Black Panther is serving a life sentence for the 1981 murder of Philadelphia police officer Daniel Faulkner.

Oh Bernie, you had a long run with your “socialist shtick,” but your time is finally up. Billionaire Bernie has spent decades selling Americans the same tired socialist fantasy, while he gets richer and richer off the current American system. He tells us the rich need to be taxed harder (he’s very rich), the government needs to get bigger, and America should look more like those magical little Nordic countries where socialism supposedly works because everyone is happier, healthier, and somehow still has enough money left over for pricey e-bikes and IKEA furniture. And Sweden was always one of Bernie’s biggest and best examples. Bernie called Sweden “proof” that his ideas weren’t radical…

Acting U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement Director Todd Lyons announced in April that he is stepping down from the post effective May 31 because he wants to spend more time with his family. That leaves a pretty big hole to fill, as the Trump administration has prioritized putting an end to illegal immigration and getting criminal illegals out of the country. The president has found his man, and it’s David Venturella, an ICE senior advisor who was recruited to the agency by Border Czar Tom Homan and who has a background in private prison firms. That resume is certain to drive the Democrats crazy, as they tend to view

The chairman of the powerful House Judiciary Committee is urging the Justice Department to ask federal courts to dismiss with prejudice all prior criminal prosecutions against President Donald Trump, putting a permanent end to a 10-year legal assault by the Obama-Biden era FBI against the man twice elected president by the American people. "It's probably time that this all just ended," Rep. Jim Jordan, R-Ohio, said Wednesday night after Just the News reported new documents it obtained revealed the FBI at the end of the Biden presidency secretly took the rare step of preserving evidence from a dismissed January 6 prosecution until 2030, raising alarm the bureau could revive its prosecution

Student visas are designed to expand educational opportunities. What’s better than studying abroad or hosting international students in the U.S. to deepen cultural ties and expand our horizons? Turns out, however, that just like we’ve seen in the massive Minnesota and California social‑service program fraud epidemic, the rampant COVID relief scams, and so much more, bad actors love to take advantage of government programs, and according to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), that’s exactly what went down with a visa program called Optional Practical Training. The idea is to give foreign students with F-1 visas

WASHINGTON — Former Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas lamented the delay in immigration enforcement actions until the final year of President Biden’s term — despite having testified to Congress several times while in office that the US border was “secure.” In an appearance Tuesday at Politico’s Security Summit, Mayorkas discussed aspects of the “broken” immigration system in America, acknowledging that a “low bar” for those expressing “credible fear of persecution” allowed too many migrants into the country during the Biden administration. More than 8 million entered by the start of the 46th president’s final year in office — before Biden moved to shut down the border and crack down on illegal crossings

WASHINGTON — The Congressional Black Caucus, a power center in the Democratic Party for decades, saw its membership rise this Congress to an all-time high of 58 House members. Now, thanks to a Supreme Court redistricting ruling that’s expected to dramatically diminish Black representation on Capitol Hill, the CBC is fighting a five-alarm fire that could devastate its membership. CBC Chair Yvette Clarke, D-N.Y., said as many as 19 of the caucus’ members could be affected by the redistricting wars in a worst-case scenario, though she noted it’s still fluid given that states are still drawing new maps in the

Despite being newly empowered by the Callais v. Louisiana Supreme Court ruling, South Carolina’s Republican-controlled Senate rejected moving ahead with a redistricting plan that would have likely unseated the state’s sole Democrat in Congress, Rep. Jim Clyburn. On Tuesday, the state Senate voted by a 29-17 margin to allow for the General Assembly to work on redistricting ahead of the 2026 elections. This was short of the necessary two-thirds threshold, with five Republican senators defecting.

Not long ago, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul told New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani to handle his own mess. Now she's writing him a $4 billion check to bail him out. Mamdani had barely settled into Gracie Mansion before he discovered what socialists always find out: Eventually, you run out of other people's money. His grand campaign promises — you know: free this, universal that — ran headlong into the reality that New York City couldn’t afford all the things Mamdani had campaigned on. So, Mamdani went looking to Albany for a bailout. And, originally, Hochul said no. "The mayor and City Council need to work together, identify savings,

A new poll suggests that a sizable number of Democrats -- more than 40% in some cases -- believe the attempts on President Donald Trump's life were fake. The poll, which surveyed 1,000 Americans over the age of 18, was conducted by NewsGuard and YouGov. It asked people to respond to three statements: "The assassination attempt against Donald Trump at the White House Correspondents Dinner in April 2026 was staged." "The assassination attempt against Donald Trump at a Trump presidential campaign rally in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024 was staged." "The assassination attempt against Donald Trump at Trump International Golf Club in September 2024 was staged."

Former Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass has unveiled a controversial new government initiative aimed at addressing issues in the city. The proposal would provide free dental care to methamphetamine users, funded by taxpayers. During a recent event, Bass shared her latest thoughts on how to tackle the city’s challenges, raising eyebrows as she discussed her approach. “How many people have you met who are homeless and don’t have any teeth?” she questioned. “Their teeth are gone because of meth. It’s hard to succeed without teeth. So, we need to offer comprehensive healthcare for these individuals.”

Several Frontier Airlines passengers suffered minor injuries over the weekend when their plane, departing from the Denver airport, struck a person trespassing on the runway. That person was killed after being hit by the plane's engine, which caused an explosion and fire that aborted the takeoff. That man has now been identified, which is raising questions about whether this was a sinister act, given his extensive criminal history. Authorities said Michael Mott, 41, was the man hit by the plane on May 9. Mott has been arrested 20 times previously, including for attempted murder. He was most recently arrested about a month before he trespassed at the Denver airport.

No surprise there, I have to say.

I have a couple of friends who are liberals -- not those liberals who have reached what I call “the incurable terminal stage.” Nor are they the psychotics who, the moment they are exposed to facts or viewpoints different from theirs become wild-eyed and hysterical. Even so, on certain topics their ability to reason seems to break down. A couple of months back, the issue of illegal aliens came up. They voiced the usual talking points on the topic: the aliens are just trying to build a better life, they pay taxes, only a few commit crimes, etc. They did not state they are being kidnapped and put in concentration camps.

A breaking news alert from Fox News, apparently confirmed by a Republican congresswoman, states that the Central Intelligence Agency went rogue, raiding the office of the Director of National Intelligence (DNI) to seize files. It seems from the Fox News report that the CIA seized the files just now, though a whistleblower from the agency who testified to Congress today referred to the wrongful seizure of files in his testimony. It is therefore not clear if the raid occurred today or before the testimony, or if there was more than one seizure.
