Democrats Would Have Sacrificed Swalwell to Target GOP Lawmakers

By Matt Vespa | Commentary, Townhall Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), having nothing left to lose, finally decided to resign from Congress. He didn’t specify when, so stay tuned. However, he’s indicated that he’s leaving. Rep. Tony Gonzalez (R-TX), who was already planning to leave after losing in a primary following an affair with a staffer that led to her suicide. Reps. Cory Mills (R-FL) and Sheila Cherfilus-McCormick (D-FL) are also at risk for ethics violations; Cherfilus-McCormick is accused of stealing millions from FEMA. These four were likely the target of the purge, probably the only motion with substantial bipartisan support.  So, what would have happened? Well, given what was brewing before Swalwell decided to call it quits, Democrats were scheming—what else is new—...

Democrat Gov Jared Polis Sees Opportunity in Federal School of Choice Funds

By Kevin Mahnken | The 74 "In Colorado, we trust the parents," Governor Jared Polis. The school choice proponent — and possible 2028 contender — is one of just two Democratic governors opting into a new federal scholarship tax credit. Colorado Gov. Jared Polis may be the Democratic Party’s single most prominent supporter of school choice.  In his life before politics, he co-founded two charter schools in his home state. During his time serving in the U.S. House of Representatives, he authored bipartisan legislation to expand high-performing charters, citing hundreds of thousands of families on waitlists nationwide. And now, in his last year as Colorado’s chief executive, he has even signed on to participate in the Trump admin...

Colorado Democrats Push Sweeping New Crackdown on 3-D Printed Guns and Gun Dealer Oversight

By Lucas Brady Woods and Kyle McKinnon | The Colorado Sun Federal data show ghost guns are increasingly turning up at crime scenes. Democrats in the Colorado legislature are adding to their slate of proposals this year to tighten the state’s gun regulations with measures that would further crack down on 3-D printed firearms and impose tougher rules on gun dealers. House Bill 1144 would add to Colorado’s restrictions on ghost guns, unserialized firearms that are often assembled at home using 3-D printed parts or do-it-yourself kits. They allow people to bypass background checks and are virtually untraceable. Federal data show ghost guns are increasingly turning up at crime scenes. Recoveries of the weapons surged nearly 1,600% between 2017 and 2023,...

Colorado Democrats Advance Immigration Accountability Bills After National Protests

By: Colette Bordelon | Denver7 While a handful of bills have not been introduced yet, SB26-005 advanced out of its first committee hearing on Monday afternoon. DENVER — On the heels of protests that erupted across the nation related to federal immigration enforcement in Minnesota, Colorado Democrats announced legislation they contend will protect civil rights. On Monday, Democratic lawmakers from both the State Senate and House of Representatives rallied alongside community members and stakeholders to unveil a new package of bills that are intertwined with immigration in America. The new bills have not been introduced yet, but legislators said they will increase "accountability" and "transparency" through the enforcement of violations when personal i...

Democrats Push Bill That Would Blacklist ICE Officers From Future Government Employment

By Ramsey Touchberry | The Washington Examiner Democrats are vowing to resist President Donald Trump’s sweeping deportation agenda by promoting policies to bar federal immigration officials from obtaining future government and law enforcement jobs. The pledges from progressive candidates seeking higher office go further than the party’s growing calls to “abolish ICE” or to slash its funding. Instead, they are warning of personal repercussions for Trump-era Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and deterring recruits from accepting lucrative sign-on bonuses. “The way I see it is, if you work for a fascist, forget about ever working for the state,” Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA), who’s running for governor in November, told the W...

House Passes Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Bill Targeting Gender Transition Procedures For Minors

By Sudiksha Kochi | The Hill The House passed a bill Wednesday sponsored by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) that would criminalize gender-affirming procedures and medical care for minors. Greene had secured a deal with leadership to bring her bill to the floor in exchange for her support of a rule advancing the National Defense Authorization Act last week. It passed 216-211. Three Democrats — Reps. Henry Cuellar (D-Texas), Don Davis (D-N.C.) and Vicente Gonzalez (D-Texas) — voted with most Republicans in favor and four Republicans — Reps. Mike Lawler (R-N.Y.), Brian Fitzpatrick (R-Pa.), Gabe Evans (R-Colo.) and Mike Kennedy (R-Utah) — voted with most Democrats against it. “Children are NOT experiments. No more drugs. No more surgeries. No...

Report Claims Whitmer, Ossoff, and Booker Part of Massive Democrat Donation Laundering

By Jim Hoft, Bob Cushman | Commentary, The Gateway Pundit Guest post by Bob Cushman Once in a while, a reporter finds a story that challenges his or her ability to tell because it is so massive in terms of time and scope. He or she feels over-whelmed. This reporter feels that way, but let’s begin anyway. This story will attempt to show the reader the journey that this reporter has been on to discover what is most likely one of the largest money laundering evolutions in the history of this country. First Indications of Massive Money Laundering – 2019 Six years ago in October of 2019, I was downloading data from the FEC database, which by the way is quite easy to do. As I compiled the data I found that three Michigan Congresswomen had received about 75% of their t...

Video From Six Democrat Lawmakers Warns Troops Against Unlawful Commands

By: Misty Severi | Just the News The other lawmakers in the video were Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly, and Reps. Jason Crow of Colorado, Chris Deluzio of Pennsylvania, Chrissy Houlahan of Pennsylvania and Maggie Goodlander of New Hampshire. Six Democratic lawmakers on Tuesday urged United States military service members to "refuse illegal orders," in a video that appeared to criticize the Trump administration's crime and illegal immigration crackdowns.  Michigan Democratic Sen. Elissa Slotkin posted the one-and-a-half minute video, which also featured five other Democratic lawmakers who have military and intelligence backgrounds, on X. "We want to speak directly to members of the Military and the Intelligence Community," Slotkin wrote in the post. "The American people...

Democrats Move to Block Proof-of-Citizenship Voting Laws

By M.D. Kittle | The Federalist Leftist Groups Flood the EAC with comments in an effort to kill a call for documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to vote in U.S. elections. Democrats in Congress have fought against every bill that would ensure only U.S. citizens vote in U.S. elections. They voted against the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act in the House, and they’ve chloroformed it in the Senate. They’ve sued to stop President Donald Trump’s executive order requiring documentary proof of citizenship when registering to vote. Why would Democrats and left-wing activists fight so hard and spend so much money trying to kill a basic election safeguard that the vast majority of Americans support?  They want noncit...

Even the Washington Post Says It’s Time for Democrats to End the Shutdown

By: Marc Tamasco | Fox News 'Schumer has allowed the shutdown to drag on because he's worried about fending off a primary challenger in 2028,' the editorial said. The Washington Post editorial board criticized Senate Democrats on Wednesday for holding the government "hostage" for a month in hopes of extending costly Obamacare subsidies and urged them to reopen the government by voting for a clean funding bill. "The right answer is to reopen the government with a clean funding bill, ideally for a full year, to get food stamps flowing and federal workers back in the office, and then have a debate about ACA subsidies," the Post editorial said. "Democrats openly acknowledge that they refuse to do this because it would mean giving up their leverage. If they persist, it...
