Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX) warned that the Democratic Party has been overtaken by its far-left wing, arguing that figures such as New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), and Maine Senate nominee Graham Platner represent the party’s future.

Speaking with Fox News while campaigning in South Carolina ahead of the state’s Republican gubernatorial runoff, Cruz said Democrats have moved dramatically away from the political center and are increasingly driven by hostility toward President Donald Trump.

“Look, unfortunately, I think that’s the base of the Democrat Party,” Cruz said.

On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Brad Lander discussed his primary win over Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY), which he stated “says Democratic voters want to reset the U.S. relationship with Israel,” and said he’s unsure Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA) “is in our party any more, to be honest.”

Lander began by saying that Democratic voters “want leaders who are going to fight, not just Donald Trump, but the billionaires who are rigging the economy against us. And that’s what I think tonight’s election is about.”

He added that the candidates who have won prior primaries are progressive candidates “who say we want to see a Democratic Party that’s fighting harder. We shouldn’t be taking corporate PAC money from Wall Street and crypto and AI and AIPAC, we’ve got to fight harder for working families and have people see us fighting for them, and we have to reset the U.S. relationship with Israel.”

After months of investigation, Operation Rescue has uncovered evidence of what can only be an unlicensed, unaccredited abortion operation in Elizabeth, New Jersey. American Women’s Services, also known as Associates in Obstetrics and Gynocology, may be operating without a license at 700 N Broad Street, and this isn’t the first time this clinic has been involved in reckless or illegal operations.

The History 

“It was no surprise when our investigative team received a tip that this AWS abortion operation seemed suspicious,” says Troy Newman, President of Operation Rescue. “The American Women’s Services abortion chain was once solely owned by infamous abortionist Steven Chase Brigham — a man whose New Jersey medical license was fully revoked in 2019 for operating an illegal bi-state late-term abortion scheme.”

The abortion scheme, which was only discovered when an 18-year-old girl was injured so badly during a botched abortion that she had to be life-flighted, is only one of Brigham’s endless documented crimes and horrors. He has had as many as six medical licenses revoked or surrendered, and even faced murder charges when police discovered the bodies of 34 late-term aborted babies found in a bloody freezer at his clandestine Elkton facility in Maryland.

Scholars deride move as censorship, threat to academic discourse

A New Zealand psychology journal recently retracted a paper questioning claims about science being a tool of “white power,” stating that it was “inconsistent” with the publication’s “values,” according to a former journal editor.

Now, the editors of the Journal of the New Zealand College of Clinical Psychologists are facing criticism from scholars across the globe.

Dr. Kumari Valentine, a psychologist and former editor of the journal, raised concerns about the retraction in an article Saturday on the substack Psychology at the Crossroads.

Anyone who is a big fan of socialism, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, and who hates Israel has to be loving what played out on Tuesday in the three House primary races where the mayor made an endorsement.  All three of the candidates he backed, Brad Lander in NY-10, Claire Valdez in NY-07, and Darializa Avila Chevalier in NY-13, have moved on to the general election, where they are likely to be victorious in the heavily blue gerrymandered districts.

Of the three, Avila Chevalier’s victory was the narrowest, with her barely squeaking by five-term incumbent Rep. Adriano Espaillat, who is the Chairman of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus. He’s also the co-chair of the House Latino-Jewish Caucus, which might have been one thing that helped sink his reelection bid, considering the anti-Israel, pro-Hamas sentiment that has taken root in the Big Apple under Mamdani’s “leadership.”

Last July, a group of armed Antifa militants ambushed an ICE detention facility in Texas, bringing rifles, body armor, and military-style medical kits. During the attack, one officer was shot through the neck. On Tuesday, several Antifa militants who participated in the attack were sentenced — including one individual who was convicted of attempted murder.

But you might not necessarily glean that if you read the Washington Post’s headline of the story.

“Federal judges in Texas on Tuesday gave eight members of an alleged ‘antifa cell’ prison sentences as long as 100 years for their roles last summer in a protest that turned violent outside an Immigration and Customs Enforcement facility,” Molly Hennessy-Fiske wrote. (The SEO headline for the piece states: “Alleged antifa members in Texas are sentenced for ICE protest”).

An Ohio voting-rights group is insisting it did nothing to justify the “swarms” of FBI agents who fanned out across the state on June 12, searching offices and visiting the homes of employees and volunteers with the Ohio Organizing Collaborative.

Meanwhile, the FBI hasn’t given any public hint of its reasons for the action or shown that they were justified.

“We’ve done nothing wrong,” Rev. Michael Harrison Sr., chairman of the collaborative’s board, said in an interview on MS Now. “In the midst of having done nothing wrong, there’s nothing to find, and there are no charges to be filed.”

The collaborative says it has registered more than 600,000 Ohioans to vote. It focuses particularly on traditionally disempowered groups. Its leader said the FBI effort didn’t come as a complete surprise.

“Whenever you’re doing the right thing, there will always be pushback,” he said during the MS Now interview. “Whenever you’re providing opportunity for the marginalized or left out, there will always be some level of pushback.”

Palantir, the data analytics company whose software powers the Trump administration’s deportation operations, has hired a former Democratic senator and a team of Democratic lobbyists with close ties to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, adding to a growing roster of Democrat-connected operatives the company has brought on in recent months.

The company registered Avoq LLC as a lobbying firm effective May 1, according to a disclosure signed on June 15. The four-person team representing Palantir is led by firm partner Steve Elmendorf, one of the top fundraisers for congressional Democrats, who has raised hundreds of thousands of bundled campaign dollars for the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, including hosting DCCC fundraisers featuring Jeffries as a speaker. Elmendorf co-founded Avoq and previously served as chief of staff to former Democratic Leader Dick Gephardt.

Joining Elmendorf is Cedric Grant, who served as Jeffries’ first chief of staff in the House, before joining Avoq, where he specializes in outreach to House Democratic Leadership and the Congressional Black Caucus, according to his firm bio. Like Elmendorf, Grant is also a campaign contribution bundler and fundraiser host for the DCCC. Also working for Palantir on the Avoq team are Keith Castaldo, a former general counsel to Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand (D-N.Y.), and Joseph Orlando, a former staffer for Democratic Reps. Frank Pallone and Jan Schakowsky, and another bundler for the House Democrats’ campaign group.

Melat Kiros, a socialist congressional candidate challenging incumbent Democrat Rep. Diana DeGette in Colorado’s 1st Congressional District, believes there is a need for a “Trans Bill of Rights,” considering it “horrific” to protect children from gender mutilation surgery.

Kiros announced that her campaign page was being updated to include a “Trans Bill of Rights,” during an appearance on the Call Me Limbo podcast.

“Like, we’re actually updating the website right now. I wrote all of our policy page a year ago now, but we’re updating it this week, and some of the things that we’re adding in there is also a Trans Bill of Rights,” she said, calling for greater “force” in pushing the transgender agenda.

“You know, I think we have to be so forceful and clear and aggressive in our protection and our advocacy for the trans community, especially for trans kids,” she continued, asserting that there are ballot measures in Colorado coming up that she considers to be “just horrific” and “absolutely destructive for young trans kids.”

Toronto police have linked multiple shootings, including one at the U.S. Consulate in March, to complex gun-for-hire networks

TORONTO — Police in Canada said Tuesday they have linked multiple shootings, including at the U.S. Consulate in Toronto in March, to “multilayered” gun-for-hire networks that have also targeted synagogues in the city.

Toronto police Chief Myron Demkiw told a news conference that young adults are being recruited through encrypted messages and paid by the networks to carry out the shootings and have to film them to get paid. Some of the firearms used in the attacks have since been seized by investigators.

For years, the left has been pushing a false narrative that President Trump was best buds with Jeffrey Epstein.

But, the New York Times just published a new report that completely flips that script on its head!

Apparently, the disgraced billionaire pedophile busied himself in his final days trying to take down President Trump.

Contrary to the story that Democrats want you to believe, Epstein hated Trump and was angry with for turning him into the cops.

Ukraine hit a major Moscow oil refinery for a second time in a week and disrupted commercial flights at the city’s airports in one of its biggest drone attacks since Russia’s all-out invasion of its neighbor more than four years ago, Russian officials said Thursday.

The attack came hours after Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said he had held “an important coordination call” with the presidents of the United States and France, and had won key pledges of further support from the G7 summit this week.

Zelenskyy was expected in Brussels later Thursday for talks with NATO and European Union leaders, including discussions about the possible building of a continental system to protect against ballistic missiles. Russia has relentlessly struck Ukraine with those types of missiles, which air defenses struggle to counter.

The US-Iran framework deal to reopen the Strait of Hormuz and bring the two adversaries back to the negotiating table over Tehran’s nuclear programme was signed on Wednesday amid differing reports and growing confusion over its contents.

Despite an earlier announcement that the agreement would be signed at a ceremony in Switzerland on Friday, US President Donald Trump signed a physical copy of the deal while dining with French President Emmanuel Macron at the Palace of Versailles.

In Tehran, President Masoud Pezeshkian also signed the document on Wednesday, according to the state-run IRNA news agency, which posted an image of him holding up the deal with his signature next to Trump’s.

War Secretary Pete Hegseth said the U.S. military was in a position to restart operations against Iran “if we need to,” shortly after President Donald Trump signed the memorandum of understanding in Versailles, France.

Speaking to reporters on the tarmac before departing from Brussels, Belgium, Hegseth indicated that, though the MOU sought to end the war with Iran, the U.S. was also prepared to launch renewed strikes if Tehran was not seen as having fulfilled its commitments under the deal.

“We will be prepared to recommence if, underneath the timeline of these talks, Iran does not do what it says it’s going to do, which is give up nuclear weapons, give up nuclear ambitions, give away their nuclear material, close nuclear facilities. Then the War Department is here and prepared to restart if we need to. We prefer not to, but we are prepared,” he said.

Congress often appears to function via the mantra of “one step forward, four steps back.” Even when policymakers take action — as in recent steps to fight fraud in government programs — they continue to ignore bigger issues with entitlement spending.

The annual release of the Medicare trustees’ report illustrates the problem. This year’s report showed that, by the end of last year at least, the administration’s anti-fraud efforts had not delayed the program’s (technical) insolvency date. Meanwhile, another year passed without lawmakers acting to fix a program that has been functionally insolvent for years.

The House Freedom Caucus is facing an exodus of its most prominent members, placing a question mark over its future after years at the center of GOP congressional fights.

More than a half-dozen caucus members are departing Washington after making runs for higher office, meaning next year will lack some of the loudest voices who made trouble for GOP leadership over the last two Congresses. One of the biggest absences will be Rep. Chip Roy (R-TX), a conservative firebrand who lost the Republican nomination for Texas attorney general.

“I think it’s going to be a massive loss,” Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) said of Roy, who is policy chairman of the Freedom Caucus. “I mean, he is an intellectual superpower. I’m amazed at how engaged he is on so many issues.”
