Well, that was a depressing election day, wasn’t it? The big three (plus two) 2025 elections have all been tabulated, and the Democrats won bigly. New Jersey Governor In New Jersey, the Democrats won a yuge race for governor. Democrat Rep. Mikie Sherrill (NJ-11), despite being a terrible candidate according to normal candidate metrics, beat Republican Jack Ciattarelli 56.3 percent to 43.2 percent. My prediction was totally off here, as I assumed that the Republican nominee would win a narrow majority or plurality. In this race, Democrats broke a historical trend going back to 1961,

Something strange happened in New Jersey on election night, and the numbers just don't add up. Republican Jack Ciattarelli lost the gubernatorial race to Democratic Representative Mikie Sherrill by a stunning 56% to 43% margin, a blowout that left pollsters scratching their heads and conservatives asking hard questions about what really went down in the Garden State. This was supposed to be a competitive race. Trump only lost the state by six points a year prior, and, if you were following this race, you know that Ciattarelli had momentum heading into Election Day, picking up endorsements from local Democrats and labor unions along the way. This was the only gubernatorial contest

Zohran Mamdani, a lunatic-fringe leftist, won election as mayor of New York by addressing the cost of living and making Hugo Chavez-like promises of free goodies for all. The latter will be a disaster, but the fact that the Trump administration officials are now focusing on the cost of living, too, suggests that all may not be a "golden age" as the administration has been promoting. Get a load of J.D. Vance: I think it's idiotic to overreact to a couple of elections in blue states, but a few thoughts: 1) Scot Pressler, TPUSA, and a bunch of others have been working hard to register voters. I said it in 2022

President Donald Trump celebrated the news of former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s (D-CA) upcoming retirement, calling the nearing end to her long political career a “great thing for America.” Pelosi, 85, announced that she will not run for re-election at the end of her twentieth congressional term in January 2027 on Thursday morning, saying, “I look forward to my final year of service as your proud representative as we go forward.” “The retirement of Nancy Pelosi is a great thing for America,” Trump told Fox News’s Peter Doocy after the news broke: “She was evil, corrupt, and only focused on bad things for our country.

Democrats have had a pretty satisfying week, and for good reason. Republicans lost across the board on Tuesday, and didn't just lose but got thumped. While these losses all took place in blue states -- except some local races in Pennsylvania and Georgia, which are still concerning -- it's the scope of the losses that looks grim for the GOP. My pal Cam Edwards pushed back passionately in our VIP Gold chat yesterday at Republicans offering excuses for losses in Virginia especially, where a dozen state legislative seats flipped to Democrats, and warns that the GOP

Congratulations, Democrats, on your 2025 rebranding into the Marxist Palestinian Party. Five stars. No notes. Just minutes after election results confirmed Zohran Mamdani would become New York City's next mayor, vandals tagged the Magen David Yeshiva in Brooklyn with swastikas. The school is part of Sephardic Jewish community that overwhelmingly voted for Andrew Cuomo, JTA notes, along with Mamdani's reaction: “This is a disgusting and heartbreaking act of antisemitism, and it has no place in our beautiful city,” wrote Mamdani in a post on X. “As Mayor, I will always stand steadfast with our Jewish neighbors

The Second Circuit Court of Appeals issued a stunning decision on Thursday, vacating a lower court's ruling that denied President Donald Trump's efforts to remove the New York criminal case against him from state court to federal court. Buckle up because I'm about to run through the procedural history here: As we all know, Trump was convicted of 34 felony counts of falsifying business records in New York state court in May of 2024. This was the case brought by Manhattan D.A. Alvin Bragg, alleging that Trump orchestrated an illegal scheme to influence the 2016 presidential election by directing his personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, to pay $130,000 to Stormy Daniels,

DETROIT — Ford Motor is reportedly considering ending production of its all-electric F-150 Lightning pickup truck amid mounting losses and more challenging market conditions for EVs. The Wall Street Journal first reported the talks Thursday, adding they are ongoing and nothing has been finalized. A source familiar with Ford’s product strategy confirmed to CNBC that the company has been evaluating its future EVs amid the company’s losses and changing market conditions. “What I can say is that F-150 Lightning is the best-selling electric pickup truck in the U.S. — despite new competition from CyberTruck, Chevy, GMC, Hummer and Rivian — and delivered record sales

Two U.S. Air Force heavy bombers have been tracked Thursday flying near the Venezuelan coast in what appeared to be a show of force linked to President Donald Trump’s latest regional pressure campaign. Both aircraft are conventionally armed Boeing B‑52H Stratofortress models, according to publicly available flight data on the website Flightradar24. The planes were flying under the call signs TITO41 and TITO42. The sorties are the latest in what the Air Force is calling "bomber attack demonstrations" in the Caribbean region. Last month, three groups of B-52H and B-1B Lancers flew similar publicly visible missions to within tens of miles of Venezuela's coast.

Tesla said shareholders voted in favor of CEO Elon Musk’s almost $1 trillion pay plan, with 75% support among voting shares. Board members recommended shareholders approve the pay plan, which they introduced in September. Top proxy advisors Glass Lewis and ISS recommended voting against it. Results of the vote were announced on Thursday at the company’s annual shareholders meeting in Austin, Texas. A separate proposal for investors calls for Tesla to be able to invest in xAI, Musk’s artificial intelligence startup created to compete with OpenAI. Tesla said that more votes were in favor than against but results are so far inconclusive.

The Supreme Court on Thursday reinstated the Trump administration’s mandate that passports must identify individuals by their biological sex. The High Court paused a lower court’s ruling that blocked the passport policy from being implemented while it is adjudicated in the courts. The policy is born out of President Trump’s day one executive order that requires the federal government to only recognize two sexes. The order also declares that sex is not changeable.

The Cyclone is the name of the iconic wooden roller coaster in Coney Island that has been there for almost 100 years. Like all roller-coasters, it lifts riders to a steep point and then lets them drop just as steeply and race around the track for a few moments of excitement. Today, Ross Douthat argues that Zohran Mamdani has probably peaked, like a rider of the Cyclone it's probably all downhill from here. It’s official: Zohran Mamdani has been elected mayor of New York City, raising the flag of the far left over Gotham. And if you believe the hype or the fears of his critics, then the 34-year-old Ugandan-born Muslim
