The Democratic Party has become more entertaining than a three-ring circus. True, they lack any clowns on the right! But there’s plenty of them on the left with a few straddling the middle of the line.
Their latest parade: U.S. Rep. Shri Thanedar from Michigan launching a new impeachment drive against President Donald Trump. This isn’t exactly a drive, so much as a bumpy reverse move.
So bumpy that quite a few Democrats, including New York Rep. Jerry Nadler, have already announced they will skip supporting the effort. Here’s more from The Liberal Hivemind.
The death of Virginia Giuffre brings Jeffrey Epstein front and center once again. Did Giuffre commit suicide, as the fake news alleges, or was she murdered by one of Jeffrey Epstein’s super-rich and highly compromised accomplices? And who, exactly, could those accomplices be?
Here, one of the more visible conspiracy theory investigators of late — Ian Carroll — takes us on a deep dive into the closeted world of Jeffrey Epstein. Billed as a debate, sponsored by ZeroHedge, the nearly two-hour video features two eminently knowledgeable participants. They most certainly do not agree on every point across the board. Up first is Nick Bryant, a longtime journalist who has deeply probed into the realm of pedophiles, particularly while researching his book The Franklin Scandal: A Story of Powerbrokers, Child Abuse & Betrayal. Joining them shortly after the opening: Ryan Dawson, host of The AntiNeoCon Report.
In a nutshell, Bryant offers the strongest support for possible CIA involvement with Epstein’s scandalous affairs. Bryant discusses Operation Midnight Climax, a side-project within Project MKUltra. Ongoing from 1953 until 1973, Operation Midnight Climax involved the CIA hiring prostitutes to have sex with unwitting “normies” at safe houses in San Francisco, New York and elsewhere. These normies would be given drugs, quite often LSD, and the CIA would watch to see how the sex and drugs loosened the tongues of these dupes. Brainwashing techniques would often be used as well.
Like MKUltra, Operation Midnight Climax came to a horrid end. It was found that CIA had not only been abusing Americans without any advance consent or knowledge, but agents were also partaking of the prostitutes and drugs. In 1975, the U.S. Congress, through a panel led by Sen. Frank Church, and President Gerald Ford, through a commission led by Nelson Rockefeller, attempted to investigate the MKUltra excesses, but CIA Director Richard Helms had already destroyed all records pertaining to these programs in 1973.
Ryan Dawson discounts CIA involvement with Epstein, arguing the sexual abuse that occurred on Epstein’s resort island and at his mansions and getaways across the United States and Paris, France, bears the hallmarks of Mossad — the chief intelligence arm of the Israeli government. The videotaping that occurred was designed to blackmail victims, presumably so they would cater to Israel’s intelligence needs and desires. Dawson traces the rise of Epstein back to the Sonneborn Institute, named after Rudolf Sonneborn — a New York-based oil executive who pushed for the founding of Israel and secured arms and military weapons for the Israeli militia after the close of World War II.
Bryant says Epstein clearly was working for Israel, but he adds that Epstein could not have compromised so many Americans –including presidents, senators and governors — without the knowledge and tacit participation, if not outright involvement, of the CIA. After all, Epstein had operations in Florida, New Mexico and New York, as well as in the U.S. Virgin Islands. “I have a tendency to believe they (Mossad and the CIA) were working together,” Bryant says.
New York will forever live in infamy as the state where Peanut The Squirrel and Fred The Raccoon were hauled off and euthanized by the long arm of the state. Now, thanks to Judicial Watch, we come to see that the New York Department of Environmental Conservation planned to murder these pets even before agents seized them at the home of Mark Longo outside Elmira.
Tom Fitton from Judicial Watch sent New York a Freedom of Information Act request, and received back a tranche of documents pertaining to the raid back in October of 2024.
Here, Viva Frei brings us up to date. He earlier tweeted, “It’s not about the pets, not about the squirrel, not about the raccoon. It’s about absolute governmental overreach, the administrative state gone mad, and a government that thinks it can come into the sanctity of your home and destroy your property and murder your pets with impunity.”
The rats are really beginning to scurry. One after the other, key Democrats are announcing they will not seek re-election in 2026. The latest casualty: Dick Durbin, the second ranking Democrat in the U.S. Senate. He just announced he’s calling it quits, after having served from the state of Illinois since 1996.
Now, the leftists are bringing out their daggers, taking aim at the party’s No. 1 political leader in the Senate: Chuck Schumer in New York. Things are definitely going sour for the party since they elected the “progressive” gun control activist David Hogg as vice chairman of the Democratic National Committee.
Durbin is the fourth Democrats preparing to leave the Senate, along with Jeanne Shaheen from New Hampshire, Tina Smith from Minnesota and Gary Peters from Michigan. Only one Republican Senator is retiring: Mitch McConnell, and that’s really a gain for the GOP. Here’s more from Steve Turley.
Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” shares a clip of Fox News host Laura Ingraham of “The Ingraham Angle,” talking to Jonathan Turley, the George Washington University law professor. The discussion focuses on the irony of the the U.S. Department of Justice’s investigation into New York Attorney General Letitia James for mortgage fraud.
While serving in New York and prosecuting President Donald Trump on a variety of charges, James was listing a Virginia home as her primary residence. And she engaged in outright fraud to secure low-rate loans for the property. These included listing her father as her husband on mortgage documents. In other words, she was doubly guilty of many of the exact same charges she was leveling against Trump.
Now, of course, Trump is calling James “a wacky crook” and urging her to reign. Payback is a bitch.
The Democrats are destroying blue states. Overtaxed and over-regulated, the blue states — including California, New York and Minnesota — are all losing population to Republican-led red states, including Texas, Utah and Florida.
Bill Maher bemoans the trends on his HBO show. Here’s more from The Jimmy Dore Show.
The Pritzker family of Illinois Gov. J.B. Prizker has ties to no fewer than 64 Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs) that were receiving money through the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID). These NGOs each had scores of executives being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars annually. So were these charitable organizations, or simply an elaborate racket to rake off vast sums of federal money?
Here, Jim Willie, financial analyst and author of the monthly newsletter Hat Trick Letter, identifies J.B. Pritzker as one of five Democratic governors whom he believes federal authorities should arrest and charge with insurrection, treason and related charges. In addition to Pritzker, Willie recommends arrests for Gavin Newsom of California, Josh Shapiro of Pennsylvania, Gretchen Whitmer of Michigan and Kathy Hochul of New York.
He advises American citizens to “get ready,” saying “all hell is breaking loose in 48 hours.” Besides governors, Willie says the hatchet should come down on several judges in the federal district court system, as well as possibly a few U.S. Supreme Court justices. One of those he mentions: James Boasberg, the Washington D.C. District Court justice looking out for the interests of the M-13 and Tren de Aragua gang members. A case can be made, says Willie, that all of Biden’s federal judicial appointees must be rescinded, seeing as how Biden did not legally sign documents elevating these judges, but instead used the autopen.
The two Supreme Court justices he recommends be censured or removed: Supreme Court Chief Justice John Roberts, an appointee of George W. Bush, and Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, a Biden appointee. Here’s more from the SGT Report.
President Donald Trump dismantles the bloated U.S. Education Department. Randi Weingarten, the president of the American Federation of Teachers, is fuming. Also pig-biting mad: Letitia James, the Attorney General of New York.
Attorney General Pam Bondi arrests three individuals Thursday on charges of vandalizing Tesla vehicles. Vandalism has hit Tesla dealerships across the country as leftists protest against Elon Musk heading the Department of Government Efficiency and recommending cuts of federal agencies and programs steeped in fraud and corruption.The Tesla arrests occurred in Colorado, Oregon and South Carolina. Elon Musk called for the dismissal of the states’ suing the DOGE.
Elsewhere, Democratic lawyers are starting to come up dry as lawfare runs its course. There’s also an update on the case of Perkins Coie, the left-leaning law firm whose lawyers lost their security clearances. Here’s more from Robert Gouveia on Watching The Watchers.
