‘Lowest Ever Recorded’: CNN Drops ‘Staggering’ Poll Showing ‘Brutal Reality’ of Democrat Disapproval Ratings

/20 Comments/in , , /by

By Mediaite. CNN’s Manu Raju shared a poll on Sunday’s Inside Politics he said shows the “brutal reality” of how negatively Americans view Democrats, with the favorable/unfavorable rating at its lowest point since the network began tracking the metric some 30 years ago.

Raju opened Sunday’s show with a full breakdown of a CNN/SSRS survey, reporting that it found only 29% of those polled viewed Democrats in a favorable light.

Fifty-four percent of those surveyed told CNN they viewed the Democratic Party unfavorably — something Raju called “staggering.”

While Democrats found themselves historically upside down in the survey, the Republican Party fared better, but not by much, coming in at just 36% favorable, and 48% saying they view the party unfavorably.

“Americans’ favorable views of the Democratic Party’s brand are at a record low, just 29%,” Raju reported. “It is the lowest ever recorded for Democrats in CNN polling, going back more than 30 years.” (Read more from “‘Lowest Ever Recorded’: CNN Drops ‘Staggering’ Poll Showing ‘Brutal Reality’ of Democrat Disapproval Ratings” HERE)

Poll: Democratic Party Favorability Sinks to Historic Low

By Breitbart. Almost nobody cares about the Democratic Party anymore, not even its own membership. That is the outcome delivered by a poll released Sunday that shows the party’s favorability rating among Americans has sunk to a historic low thanks in part to underwhelming views from its own frustrated supporters.

A CNN poll conducted by SSRS found with many in the Democratic Party publicly say their meek leaders should do more to challenge President Donald Trump, Democrats and Democratic-aligned independents say, 57 percent to 42 percent, that Democrats should mainly work to stop the Republican agenda, rather than working with the GOP majority to get some Democratic ideas into legislation.

CNN reports that weak, dithering leaders and poor political judgement combine to disillusion former backers of the party which has seen it slide into irrelevance:

The majority’s desire to fight the GOP marks a significant change in the party’s posture from the start of Trump’s first term. A September 2017 poll found a broad 74% majority of Democrats and Democratic leaners saying their party should work with Republicans in an attempt to advance their own priorities, and just 23% advocating for a more combative approach.

Democratic-aligned adults say, 52% to 48%, that the leadership of the Democratic Party is currently taking the party in the wrong direction. That’s another shift from eight years ago, when views on this metric were largely positive.

Among the American public overall, the Democratic Party’s favorability rating stands at just 29% – a record low in CNN’s polling dating back to 1992 and a drop of 20 points since January 2021, when Trump exited his first term under the shadow of the January 6 attack at on Capitol. The Republican Party’s rating currently stands at 36%.

Overall Democrats have yet to consolidate around any one-party leader to serve as a counterpoint to a surging and increasingly confident President Donald Trump.

Is This the Aide Behind Biden’s Controversial Autopen Signings?

/3 Comments/in , , /by

A key aide to former President Joe Biden is under scrutiny following accusations that she overused the former president’s autopen, a device typically used for signing official documents. This raised concerns about the authenticity of her signature on critical matters. In addition to this controversy, she faced a Hatch Act complaint for allegedly making illegal fundraising solicitations in her official government role. These allegations have sparked criticism over potential misuse of power and violation of ethics rules within the Biden administration.

Reports suggest Neera Tanden, Biden’s former White House Staff Secretary, may have used the autopen to sign pardons while President Biden was golfing in St. Croix in December 2022. The Oversight Project pointed out that six individuals received pardons during Biden’s vacation on December 30, 2022, raising concerns that the president may not have been present or fully aware that the pardons were being signed.

Last week, I covered a report about documents signed by Biden’s autopen that could be considered invalid, alleging that one of Biden’s key aides may have abused the device to sign official papers. President Donald Trump has increased scrutiny over Biden’s use of the autopen throughout his presidency, with sources close to the administration suggesting that the device may have been misused.

Trump claimed that Biden’s autopen pardons are “null and void” “because I’m sure Biden didn’t have any idea that it was taking place.”

In response, Tanden, an ultra-progressive liberal, lashed out at Trump, urging lawyers to file lawsuits against the president.

Preacher Doesn’t Flinch as Trans Activist Points Apparent Gun at His Head

/7 Comments/in , , /by

Shocking video has been released showing the moment a pastor had an apparent gun pointed in his face by an activist – but the cool-headed preacher hardly moves a muscle.

Kevin Kihara, 37, a pastor of Christian Forgiveness Ministries in San Francisco, was speaking out against the transgender ideology in Santa Ana on Wednesday when the unhinged aggressor came at him, brandishing what appeared to be a firearm.

Kihara, who was speaking into a mic on a sidewalk, then calmly looks and sees the person – who is out of shot – fast approaching.

“What are you going to come attack me now?” Kihara says bluntly.

That’s when the emotionally charged person — dressed in denim overalls and a black and white striped T-shirt – walks up to him and pulls out what appears to be a large handgun and points it in Kihara’s face.

“I should,” the tattooed person responds. (Read more from “Preacher Doesn’t Flinch as Activist Points Apparent Gun at His Head” HERE)

Fani Willis Is Going to Pay Big for Violating State Law While Prosecuting Trump

/1 Comment/in , , /by

Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis just got some more horrible news. A judge has ordered her to pay over $54,000 in attorney’s fees and hand over documents her office held in violation of Georgia’s Open Records Act.

Willis withheld important documentation related to the prosecution against President Donald Trump. Ashleigh Merchant, the attorney who filed an open records request to obtain information related to Willis’ inappropriate relationship with another prosecutor she had appointed to Trump’s case, said she had been “completely stonewalled” by Willis’ office in September 2023, according to the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.

Merchant said she requested about a dozen sets of records from the DA’s office, including non-disclosure agreements employees are required to sign, a list of attorneys hired by Willis since taking office and receipts for the DA’s contract with a New York-based “media monitoring service.”

The ruling, issued Friday by Fulton County Superior Court Judge Rachel Krause, marks a rare win for those seeking access to public records held by government agencies.

Krause determined the DA’s office failed to comply with Georgia’s Open Records Act by withholding public documents and said those failures “were intentional, not done in good faith, and were substantially groundless and vexatious.”

Because the DA’s office lacked justification for denying the records, Willis’ office must pay attorney fees and litigation expenses to Merchant, her husband, John, and the attorney couple’s paralegal, all of whom worked to get the records, the judge ruled.

As ICE Arrests Increase, Illegal Aliens Are Fighting Back

/5 Comments/in , , /by

Federal officers are pursuing illegal immigrants, and the illegal immigrants are increasingly fighting back, according to court documents and officials who describe a surge in assaults on law enforcement.

Experts said the violence is driven at least in part by immigrant advocates who deliver know-your-rights briefings that seem to encourage defiance.

“It’s deliberately intended to fuel that,” Matthew J. O’Brien, a former immigration judge, told The Washington Times.

In California, a Russian migrant has been charged with chomping on the hand of a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer hard enough to break his finger. In New York, an illegal immigrant from Nicaragua stands accused of roughing up U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents who tried to arrest him at a jail.

In Denver, city authorities released Abraham Gonzalez into a jail parking lot, where he took on a half-dozen ICE officers, congressional Republicans said. (Read more from “As ICE Arrests Increase, Illegal Aliens Are Fighting Back” HERE)

University Human Rights Fellow Convicted For Having A Slave

A British jury convicted United Nations Judge Lydia Mugambe on Thursday of forcing a Ugandan woman into domestic servitude after luring her to the U.K. under false pretenses.

Mugambe, who also serves as a high court judge in Uganda, brought the victim to Britain under the guise of securing her a job in a diplomatic household — only to make her work as an unpaid maid and nanny. She confiscated the victim’s passport and visa, leaving her trapped until she was able to contact a friend, who alerted authorities, according to a Thames Valley Police statement.

“Lydia Mugambe used her position to exploit a vulnerable young woman, controlling her freedom and making her work without payment,” Eran Clutliffe, an attorney for the Crown Prosecution Service’s Special Crime Division, said.

The 49-year-old judge, who was studying for a doctorate at the University of Oxford at the time, according to her profile on the U.N.’s website, was found guilty on four charges, including forced labor, an immigration offense and conspiracy to intimidate a witness. Mugambe is also listed on Columbia University’s website as a fellow in their human rights program. Prosecutors argued she “exploited and abused” the victim’s lack of knowledge about her rights to keep her in a state of servitude.

Trump Stares Down Reporter After Being Hit in the Face With a Boom Mic: ‘She Just Became a Big Story’

/30 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump was inadvertently struck in the face by a boom microphone Friday as he fielded questions from reporters at Joint Base Andrews in Maryland.

The fuzzy end of the extended microphone – sometimes referred to as a “dead cat” in the industry – struck the 45th and 47th president in the mouth and slid across part of his face as he closed his eyes and leaned back to avoid further contact.

Trump, 78, glared at the reporter and raised both eyebrows in apparent amusement as the mic was quickly pulled away.

“She just made television tonight,” the president quipped, apparently referring to the clumsy reporter. “She just became a big story tonight.”

“Did you see that?” Trump asked someone off camera, laughing off the incident.

It’s unclear which media outlet the boom mic operator works for. (Read more from “Trump Stares Down Reporter After Being Hit in the Face With a Boom Mic: ‘She Just Became a Big Story’” HERE)

Alleged Customers at High-End Brothel Serving Politicians, Military Officials Finally Unmasked in Court as Salacious Details of Encounters Revealed

/15 Comments/in , , /by

A group of high-profile johns who frequented posh brothels in Massachusetts were finally named in court Friday during a hearing that laid out sordid details, including that at least one of the men paid to have unprotected sex.

Mark Zhu, 28, was one of the alleged johns to be identified during the hearing in a Cambridge, Massachusetts, courtroom where it was revealed he allegedly paid $840 for two hours of unsafe sex with a prostitute – in a service referred to as “bb,” the Daily Mail reported.

Also revealed were the identities of other alleged johns including, Kerry Wu, John J. Doran, David LaCava, Boya Zhou, Peter H. MacGillivray, Yihong Zou, Pablo Domingo Maceira, Jonathan P. Lanfear, Pinhao Chao, Patrick Walsh and radiologist Jason Han.

The johns regularly used acronyms in text messages arranging sexual encounters with call girls, like “gfe” – or the “girlfriend experience,” Cambridge Police Lt. Jarred Cabral alleged, reading out the text messages in court.

Cabral said the men referred to payment for sex as “donations” — which would run in the hundreds of dollars. And they were polite but businesslike when arranging the dalliances, saying “pleases,” “thank yous,” and “have a great day,” Cabral said, according to a report by The Boston Globe.

This Is the Most Dangerous and Outrageous ‘Activist Judge’ Overreach Yet

/48 Comments/in , , /by

By Revolver News. The weaponized judiciary has hit a new low. We’ve seen activist judges pull every trick in the book to block, stall, and sabotage President Trump at every turn. But now, they’re going after something even more dangerous—the President’s authority over national security.

In an unprecedented move, a federal judge has blocked President Trump from revoking the security clearance of Perkins Coie.

This is the same deep-state law firm that helped manufacture the Russia hoax. The same firm is funded by George Soros to the tune of $22 million and is deeply embedded in every major left-wing lawfare attack against Trump and the American people.

And here is some more information on this Deep State law firm:

Wall Street Apes:

“A federal judge has BLOCKED President Trump from revoking the security clearance of Perkins Coie, the law firm which helped develop the Russia Hoax”

Perkins Coie IS FUNDED BY GEORGE SOROS, Over $22 MILLION in George Soros linked payments:

– $5 million: Direct donation to Perkins Coie’s political law practice prior to 2016, reportedly for funding lawsuits challenging state election laws.
– $3 million: Sole donation to the Immigrant Voters Win PAC, set up by Perkins Coie lawyer Jonathan Berkon, linked to Soros’s support for immigrant voting initiatives.
– $1.7 million: Donation to the Philadelphia Justice & Public Safety PAC (registered at Perkins Coie’s D.C. office) to support Larry Krasner’s 2017 DA campaign.
– $9.5 million: Donation to Priorities USA (a Democratic-aligned super PAC that has retained Perkins Coie), linked to Soros’s broader election influence efforts
– $1 million: Contribution from Alex Soros (George Soros’s son) to Priorities USA, also noted in posts found on X, potentially tied to Perkins Coie’s legal services.

Perkins Coie is responsible for the following crimes:

– Making up the Russian collusion hoax back in 2016
– They then ran to the FISA court and got an illegal spy warrant
– Lied to the FISA court, got an illegal spy warrant on then presidential candidate Donald Trump
– They continued to spy on President Donald Trump when he was the president of the United States
– They colluded with intel agencies and law enforcement to make up crossfire hurricane (With our nation’s most classified secrets because they politicized and weaponized crossfire hurricane, which is the biggest scandal in American history.)
– They continued the lawfare against president Trump after he left office, the four indictments for non-crimes
– They tried to throw him off the ballot under a bogus theory under the constitution
– They underfunded Trump’s secret service protection and tried to take off its head
– They were also directly involved with Barack Obama’s birth certificate

“So this law firm has proven that it can’t be trusted”

Elon Musk Takes Notice of Ray Epps’ Ties to Former Perkins Coie Attorney—‘Interesting’

By Revolver News. Elon Musk took note of Revolver’s coverage of the ties between Ray Epps and a former attorney from Perkins Coie, a Democrat legal powerhouse with a long history of running cover and agendas for the Deep State.

Perkins Coie is the same firm that started and then helped to push the fake Russia hoax. For that reason and others, President Trump recently shut the lights off on that firm’s access to classified information.

Revolver:

One of the shadiest players in this scheme is none other than Perkins Coie. And President Trump just shut off the lights on this progressive law firm, leaving them reeling in the dark.

Thanks to a powerful new EO, he’s cut off the head of yet another Deep State snake.

But the truth is, Perkins Coie wasn’t just any law firm—these were the legal lawfare operatives who launched the Russia Hoax on behalf of Hillary Clinton and the Deep State. And that was just the beginning. From cover-ups to misinformation campaigns, Perkins Coie was there every step of the way, adding layer upon layer of deception, confusion, and subterfuge to keep the truth buried.

Red State Cracks Down on Sanctuary City After Police Chief Refuses to Cooperate With ICE

/25 Comments/in , , /by

Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton is launching a probe into the city of Dallas over the region’s sanctuary city policies that protect illegal immigrants.

On Thursday, Paxton announced the investigation, as well as a formal request for city and Dallas Police Department records concerning the police department’s refusal to comply with state and federal immigration laws.

“The law is not optional. Local governments do not have the authority to disregard state and federal immigration laws,” Paxton said in a statement. “The people of Texas expect law enforcement agencies to uphold public safety, not to implement sanctuary policies that put our communities at risk.”

“My office will take all necessary legal actions to ensure compliance with state law and hold accountable any local entity that defies its legal obligations,” he added.

Paxton’s office has requested all policies, training materials and communications related to Dallas’ enforcement or non-enforcement of immigration laws, including any records reflecting decisions to decline cooperation with federal immigration authorities.
