Jon Stewart Lectures Democrats Following Trump Victory (VIDEO)

/2 Comments/in , /by

Comedian Jon Stewart lectured his fellow Democrats in his election post-mortem on Monday’s episode of Comedy Central’s The Daily Show, denying claims the party had become “too woke” and insisting instead that Democrats had “acted like Republicans” during the campaign.

Jon Stewart took issue with the prevailing belief among left-wing pundits that Kamala Harris’ loss to President-elect Donald Trump was due in part to Democrats’ becoming too woke.

“I only have one problem with the ‘woke’ theory,” he said. “I just didn’t recall seeing any Democrats running on woke s**t.”

He continued: “They acted like Republicans for the last four months,” citing Kamala Harris’ decision to embrace endorsements from Dick Cheney and Liz Cheney, and to campaign with Liz Cheney in the final days of the campaign.

Stewart added: “Democrats were mostly running against an identity that was defined for them based on a couple of months of post-George Floyd, defund the police Instagram posts from four years ago. So the Democrats have got to chill out.” (Read more from “Jon Stewart Lectures Democrats Following Trump Victory” HERE)

Report: Women Stockpile Abortion Pills, Men Schedule Vasectomies After Election

/2 Comments/in , /by

Liberal women are stockpiling abortion pills and “morning after” pills and men are scheduling vasectomies at greater rates after Donald Trump won the 2024 presidential election, left-leaning news outlets are reporting.

Despite Trump repeatedly stating that abortion laws should be left to individual states, Democrats — including failed presidential candidate Kamala Harris — and pro-abortion organizations have claimed he will sign a national abortion restriction. Abortion also notably became a constitutional right in seven states this election cycle, after voters passed various ballot measures allow abortion throughout pregnancy with some limitations.

On the heels of a Trump victory, abortion organizations are reporting higher numbers of appointments and requests, The Washington Post reported. Aid Access, which mails abortion pills around the country, said it received 10,000 requests in the 24 hours after the election — far greater than the roughly 600 request the organization usually receives.

“Rebecca Gomperts, founder of Europe-based Aid Access, said her organization received so many online orders for abortion medication on Wednesday that the website briefly crashed,” according to the report. “More of those requests than usual were from people who wanted to have the pills on hand in case they unexpectedly became pregnant, Gomperts said. She added that orders came not just from states with abortion restrictions but also from states where the procedure is protected.” (Read more from “Report: Women Stockpile Abortion Pills, Men Schedule Vasectomies After Election” HERE)

‘Burn the System Down’: Democrats Now Facing Charges They Are the Ones Trying To Destroy Democracy

/0 Comments/in , /by

Protecting democracy was a catch phrase that Democrats have used for years to explain their hatred of now President-elect Donald Trump. . .

The only salvation for America’s “democracy” would be to keep Democrats, in this election Kamala Harris, in power, they said. . .

Jonathan Turley, the Shapiro Professor of Public Interest Law at George Washington University, said, “Democracy appears to be losing its appeal on the left. After campaigning on panic politics and predicting the imminent death of democracy, some on the left are now calling to burn the system down in light of Republicans not only taking both houses and the White House but Trump likely winning the popular vote.”

He pointed out that it’s ironic that “Democratic politicians and pundits repeated the mantra that, if we did not elect Harris, this might be our last election.”

He explained, “After losing that election, democracy appears to be the problem. The majority of Americans voting for Trump have been called ‘anti-American’ by Gov. Hochul. Other politicians and pundits have called them racists, misogynists, or weaklings seeking domination by strongmen and bullies.” (Read more from “‘Burn the System Down’: Democrats Now Facing Charges They Are the Ones Trying To Destroy Democracy” HERE)

Prosecutors Now Probing Secretary of State Over Election-Password Catastrophe

/1 Comment/in , /by

Jena Griswold is a far-left Democrat secretary of state in the far-left state of Colorado. . .

She played an integral role when Tina Peters, then a clerk in Mesa County, made a copy of the 2020 election results from her county and, in the course, exposed briefly an election systems password. She was sentenced to years in prison.

Now, in the aftermath of Griswold’s own exposure of dozens and dozens of election systems passwords online for the 2024 election, she’s being investigated by a coalition of prosecutors.

It is Westword that reported the office of the Denver district attorney is investigating, with help from the district attorney in El Paso County.

“Officials believe the leak originated in Secretary of State Jena Griswold’s Denver-based office, but it involved current passwords for voting equipment in 34 Colorado counties, including El Paso,” the report said.

Trump Selects Kristi Noem to Head Department of Homeland Security

/2 Comments/in , /by

President-elect Donald Trump is expected to select South Dakota Gov. Kristi Noem to fill the role of Homeland Security secretary, multiple sources confirm to Fox News Digital.

Noem, who was thought to be a potential running mate on the Trump ticket earlier in the year, has served as governor of the Mount Rushmore State since 2019.

The Department of Homeland Security oversees U.S. Customs and Border Protection, Immigration and Customs Enforcement, U.S. Secret Service and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).

If selected, Noem would work with Tom Homan, who was announced as Trump’s “border czar” on Sunday, and Stephen Miller, who was announced as the White House deputy of staff for policy on Monday.

Noem, along with Homan and Miller, has long been a supporter of Trump’s hardline stance on immigration and border security. (Read more from “Trump Selects Kristi Noem to Head Department of Homeland Security” HERE)

Democrats for Life Wins 97% of Endorsed Elections in Rebuke to Party’s Abortion Stance

/0 Comments/in , /by

Democrats for Life of America said Tuesday that 97% of its endorsed candidates won their races in last week’s election, which raises the question: Is there such a thing as a pro-life Democrat?

Certainly not in Congress, unless you count Rep. Henry Cuellar — and his record is mixed. But anti-abortion Democrats made it clear that they’re far from extinct by racking up victories in their bids for seats in state legislatures and county commissions.

Democrats for Life endorsed 39 candidates in the Nov. 5 election, and 37 of them won outright. Of the remaining two, one candidate lost, and the other — Sharon Weston Broome — is moving to a run-off in the race for mayor-president of East Baton Rouge Parish in Louisiana.

That’s an impressive win-loss percentage, especially in a year that saw the Democratic Party lose the White House and the Senate after doubling down on abortion rights as a campaign issue.

“While Democrats lost from sea to shining sea last week, pro-life Democrats won — 97% of our endorsed candidates won last week,” said Democrats for Life President Kristen Day in a Tuesday statement.

TREASON: Pentagon Officials Discussed Scenarios to Countermand Controversial Orders From Incoming Commander-In-Chief

/5 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Caller. Pentagon officials have been discussing how to counter potential orders from President-elect Donald Trump, CNN reported, citing defense sources.

The officials are “gaming out” various scenarios, including the possibility Trump will deploy military troops to assist in mass deportations and a potential reclassification of federal employees to make them easier to fire, CNN reported Friday.

“We are all preparing and planning for the worst-case scenario, but the reality is that we don’t know how this is going to play out yet,” a defense official said, according to CNN.

Republican CNN contributor Scott Jennings criticized the reports Friday, suggesting the disgruntled officials should speak to Trump directly.

“What’s Donald Trump supposed to think?” Jennings asked “Anderson Cooper 360⁰” host Anderson Cooper. “He’s gotta read in the newspaper tonight that the unelected bureaucracy of the federal government is having meetings, at some level, about how to thwart or counterman the Commander in Chief.”

How a Trump Presidency Could Lead To a Purge at the Pentagon

By Reuters. During his campaign for re-election, Donald Trump vowed to purge the military of so-called “woke” generals. Now that he is president-elect, the question in the halls of the Pentagon is whether he would go much further. . .

Current and former U.S. officials say Trump will prioritize loyalty in his second term and root out military officers and career civil servants he perceives to be disloyal. . .

Trump was asked by Fox News in June whether he would fire generals described as “woke.” . . .

“I would fire them. You can’t have (a) woke military,” Trump said. (Read more from “How a Trump Presidency Could Lead To a Purge at the Pentagon” HERE)

Dad Who Ranted Against Trump Election Gunned Down Wife, Ex-Girlfriend and His 2 Kids in Murder-Suicide

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A Minnesota dad who ranted against President-elect Donald Trump online shot and killed his wife, ex-partner, and his two sons before turning the gun on himself, according to authorities.

The shooter, 46-year-old Anthony Nephew, had a “pattern of mental health issues,” Duluth Police Chief Mike Ceynowa said on Friday — one day after authorities found five people dead inside two homes in the city. . .

Before his rampage, Anthony Nephew had been sharing left-wing and anti-Trump posts on his Facebook account.

“My mental health and the world can no longer peacefully coexist, and a lot of the reason is religion,” Anthony Nephew wrote in July. . .

“Gilead here we come,” he wrote, referencing “The Handmaid’s Tale,” a dystopian novel turned Hulu series in which women, who have been stripped of their rights, are forced to reproduce for the ruling class.

Anthony Nephew shared other political posts, including an image of former president Barack Obama, Trump, President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris. The word “hate” sits under Trump’s face, while the words “hope,” “heal” and “grow” correspond with the Democratic politicians.

Jill Biden Gives Kamala Harris the Cold Shoulder After Husband Joe Was Forced Out of Race the VP Lost to Trump (VIDEO)

/11 Comments/in , , /by

By Daily Mail. It’s an unseasonably warm 72 degrees in Washington, D.C. today – but conditions looked downright icy in the VIP viewing area at Arlington National Cemetery.

Jill Biden, eyes hidden behind sunglasses, looked stoic as she sat next to Kamala Harris while her husband, President Joe Biden delivered his Veterans Day address.

The first lady stared straight ahead as the vice president grinned and leaned into husband Doug Emhoff, who sat on her other side. . .

But now the votes have been tallied and the results show Harris lost to Donald Trump in a landslide, leaving the Harris camp and Biden allies to blame one another for the Democrats’ epic Election Day defeats.

Veterans Day marked the first time President Biden and Vice President Harris saw one another since the election. (Read more from “Jill Biden Gives Kamala Harris the Cold Shoulder After Husband Joe Was Forced Out of Race the VP Lost to Trump (VIDEO)” HERE)

Biden, Kamala Harris Make First Public Appearance Together Since Election as Stone-Faced Jill Looks On

By New York Post. Lame-duck President Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris appeared in public together Monday for the first time since the veep’s loss to President-elect Donald Trump — making a joint visit to Arlington National Cemetery for a Veterans Day event.

Biden, 81, and Harris, 60, participated in a wreath-laying ceremony ahead of the retiring president’s remarks hailing military service members and their families — as the defeated Democratic nominee looked on from the stands with an expressionless first lady Jill Biden on her left.

Harris, who did not speak, wore a similarly stoic expression before swapping smiles with her husband, Douglas Emhoff — seated on her other side — just six days after losing to Trump, 78, whom she denounced last month as a “fascist” who threatened American democracy.

“This is the moment to come together as a nation, to keep faith in each other,” Biden said in what appeared to be a reference to the Republican takeover of the White House and Congress in last Tuesday’s election.

Republicans Take Control of the House of Representatives

/1 Comment/in , /by

Republicans are projected to take control of the House of Representatives, giving the party a trifecta as Republicans also took control of the Senate and the presidency.

Decision Desk HQ projected that the Republicans had won enough seats for them to take control of the House. Republicans were projected to have secured a 218-209 majority.

House Republicans ended up making gains over their Democrat colleagues in the election. Republican candidate Rob Bresnahan won the race for Pennsylvania’s 8th Congressional District over incumbent Rep. Matt Cartwright.

Republican candidate Ryan Mackenzie also unseated incumbent Rep. Susan Wild (D-PA) in the race for Pennsylvania’s 7th Congressional District.

The Hill reported that there were “three freshmen New York Republicans” who were unseated in their races.
