Chris Matthews Let It SLIP On 'Morning Joe.' Dems Are SCREWED.

Friday, August 14, 2026

Joe Scarborough handed the mic to Chris Matthews, who went on MSNBC and told every Democrat in America they have to publicly renounce the DSA checklist — no ICE, no border, no prisons, no Pentagon — before Election Day. Good luck: Hakeem Jeffries and Kathy Hochul campaigned with Zohran Mamdani and Adam Schiff called him the future. Then CNN's Harry Enten pulled up the Fox News poll showing Mike Rogers up four in Michigan with Abdul El-Sayed 13 points underwater — the first Democrat down that far in a Michigan Senate poll since 1994 — and El-Sayed's newest surrogate is his sister, who posted a "see you on the streets" video right after October 7th.

They Just BETRAYED Tim Walz...

Friday, August 14, 2026

Peggy Flanagan is Tim Walz's lieutenant governor and the Democrats' new Senate nominee in Minnesota — and in her first round of national interviews she threw Walz straight under the bus over the fraud scandal, saying "the buck stops with him" and "more should have been done sooner." She was then asked twice whether there should be any age limit on gender-affirming care for a ten-year-old, refused to answer, dodged whether she wants to abolish ICE, and attacked the Laken Riley Act. Her first big fundraising email claimed no Native woman has ever served in the Senate, which is news to Elizabeth Warren, and Scott Jennings summed the whole thing up on CNN NewsNight with Abby Phillip.

The Gamble Hakeem Jeffries Just Made Is ALREADY Screwing Him...

Friday, August 14, 2026

Hakeem Jeffries was asked point-blank about the Democratic Socialists of America on the midterm ballot — and his answer boiled down to "just win, baby." Then Wisconsin's new Democrat nominee David Crowley went on CNN with Kaitlan Collins, refused to be called the man who stopped progressive momentum, dodged the gas tax question twice, and told America his sister-in-law makes the best Thanksgiving "chicken dressing." Francesca Hong lost the primary over Thanksgiving, and the photos from her victory party that never happened are something else.

AARP's John Hishta Reveals the Mistake Most Americans Make by Waiting Until Retirement

Hishta also reveals how many Americans over 50 still haven't opened their SSA.gov account, what this October's cost-of-living increase is expected to be, and the one phone call that fixes most Social Security problems. Everything you need to know about your benefits, your work history, and when to claim.

They PULLED THE PLUG On NBC's Election Night Coverage. It Was HILARIOUS!

Thursday, August 13, 2026

She's DONE. Pelosi Realizes ON STAGE How FINISHED Dems Are...

Wednesday, August 12, 2026

Trump Trolled CNN In The BEST Way Possible. They're PISSED.

Tuesday, August 11, 2026

The Washington Post revealed that Donald Trump was secretly shuttled off Air Force One in an airport catering truck after an Iranian threat, moved to a smaller C-32A, and left the big jet flying as a decoy with the press pool and some White House staff still on board. CNN's Anderson Cooper called it deception and asked Kaitlan Collins whether there was any precedent for it — she never answered the question. Larry O'Connor has a message for the whining White House press corps, plus Trump's 50-year invoice counteroffer after Iran demanded reparations to reopen the Strait of Hormuz.

Fauci Just Got CUAGHT. What He Did Is DISGUSTING.

Tuesday, August 11, 2026

Senators Ron Johnson and Rand Paul released text messages pulled off Anthony Fauci's government phone showing that in January 2021 he privately warned Rochelle Walensky and Vivek Murthy that a second dose "theoretically could be associated with miscarriage in the first trimester" — and the public was never told. Katie Pavlich flagged newly released documents claiming the raw data showed an 82% first-trimester miscarriage rate, and NIH Director Jay Bhattacharya told Larry O'Connor the shot should never have been mandated for pregnant women. Meanwhile Rochelle Walensky was on a pregnancy podcast months later telling expectant mothers there is "no bad time" to get vaccinated.

Jamie Raskin Is In DENIAL. His Own Party FURIOUS With His Friends.

Tuesday, August 11, 2026

Jamie Raskin cut an ad insisting young socialists don't actually want to socialize the means of production — hours before Bill Maher played the quote from Zohran Mamdani's top aide Cea Weaver about the government's "sacred right to seize property" and impoverishing the white middle class. Hasan Piker's reaction to that? "Beast mode. I love her so much." Larry O'Connor breaks down Raskin's socialism denial, Francesca Hong's collapse with Wisconsin Democrats, and Abdul El-Sayed's Hasan Piker problem.

Joe Scarborough Was FURIOUS On Live TV When He Realized. They're DONE.

Tuesday, August 11, 2026

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez told Jon Karl on ABC that "woke one was crazy" — the movement she helped lead — and Karl separated her from defund the police before she ever had to answer for it. She also claimed the dividing line between socialism and communism is democracy, and Karl's only Hasan Piker question came pre-loaded with an excuse. Plus: Joe Scarborough's warning to Democrats about Piker, and the AOC live stream that looks a lot like a 2028 launch.

Gavin Newsom Thought This Was A Good Idea. It BACKFIRED Spectacularly.

Monday, August 10, 2026

Abdul El-Sayed's side called it bigotry when Tim Scott's NRSC ad used his full name in Michigan — then on Meet the Press, El-Sayed said "Barack Hussein Obama" himself. Kristen Welker also pinned him down on Medicare for All, where El-Sayed effectively admitted taxes go up for people making well under $1 million. Plus: Gavin Newsom sat smiling while Michael Fanone trashed Charlie Kirk on Newsom's own podcast.
