Consider this juxtaposition: In a few weeks, Washington, D.C., will be the epicenter for America’s 250th anniversary of the Declaration of Independence. A few months later, Washington, D.C. will likely be led by a democratic socialist for the first time ever.

As of now, democratic socialist Janeese Lewis George has a commanding lead in the Democrat Party’s primary for mayor of the nation’s capital, which occurred on June 16.

Lewis George, the first and only democratic socialist member on the DC City Council since the late 1990s, says her “people-first platform” will “improve the lives of the people in D.C. …by strategically and effectively utilizing all that the government can offer and do.”

Specifically, she wants the government to provide “childcare for all,” “affordable utilities for all,” “arts and culture for all,” “reliable transportation for all,” “good jobs for all,” and “homes for all.”

FBI Director Kash Patel announced Tuesday that the feds disrupted a “two wave” domestic terrorist plot targeting the UFC Freedom 250 celebration prior to the event held on the White House South Lawn, Sunday.

Five anti-Israel, Epstein-obsessed suspects are currently in custody following a multi-state operation that was initiated when the threat was discovered on June 10. The suspects have been charged with conspiracy to commit murder.

Investigators have identified a potential network of 23 anti-Trump suspects involved in the pre-operational planning on encrypted Signal chats.

The patriotic UFC event was held on the South Lawn as part of President Donald Trump’s 80th birthday weekend, drawing an estimated 4,300 attendees, including about 1,200 active-duty service members. Another 85,000 people watched the grand spectacle on giant screens at the nearby Ellipse.

Since last year, the Trump administration has been cracking down on one of the most horrific results of Joe Biden’s open borders policy.

Thanks to our lord and savior Donald J. Trump, these stories are less frequent than they were during the People Who Controlled Joe Biden Administration. We still get the occasional advertisement for homeschooling. Like a Colorado teacher who made girls kiss in the classroom as part of “sketches” and graded them on it. And, yes, the teacher IS on the LGBTQ spectrum. However, did you guess?

Jennifer Honka is a now-former teacher from Denver Public Schools. She taught French Language and Culture at Northeast Early College for eight years. So maybe instead of a lesson in tolerance of Ls, Gs, Bs, Ts, and whatever the Qs are, it was just a misguided lesson in French kissing in between lessons in how to make macarons and how to surrender in war.

KAMPALA, Uganda — An opposition figure in Uganda was detained Monday on the orders of the army chief, whose increased role in his father’s administration has worried opposition and human rights defenders.

Erias Lukwago was taken from his house by armed soldiers after he had sought to serve Gen. Muhoozi Kainerugaba, who is army chief and the president’s son, with court papers related to Kainerugaba’s threats against another opposition figure, according to Lukwago’s party. Kainerugaba confirmed the arrest on his social media and threatened to inflict “hurt and pain” against him.

Lukwago is a former mayor of the Ugandan capital of Kampala and the president of the People’s Front for Freedom opposition group. He is the attorney for Kizza Besigye, a four-time presidential candidate who faces treason charges in a criminal case that his supporters see as politically motivated.

Socialist Energy Growing in Democratic Party: Zohran Mamdani Endorses Radical Darializa Avila Chevalier in New York’ 13th Congressional District

Darializa Chevalier, who is running for Congress and endorsed by Zohran Mamdani, founded the group at Columbia that posted “Death to America,” and said that it’s part of the same movement as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis.

Chevalier founded a Columbia University group that posted “Death to America” and declared itself part of the same movement as Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis. According to the Free Beacon, she also praised a convicted Palestinian terrorist involved in a bombing that killed two Israeli civilians. Within Democratic Socialist circles, critics have dubbed her a “Palestine ultra.”

Mamdani’s endorsement is more than a local political alliance—it’s a window into the direction of an increasingly radical Democratic Party. Candidates once confined to the activist fringe are now being elevated by the party’s rising socialist wing, bringing anti-Israel and anti-American rhetoric ever closer to the halls of Congress.

Jihadi Mayor Zohran Mamdani gutted legal protections for Jewish New Yorkers in his first hours in office, then his administration illegally buried the records that could expose why City Hall did it, who helped shape the decision, and how far its anti-Israel agenda now reaches, a new lawsuit alleges.

The suit, filed in New York State Supreme Court by veteran investigative journalist Richard Behar, seeks to force the city and Mamdani to turn over public records tied to Executive Order No. 1, the mayor’s Jan. 1, 2026 order rescinding a series of executive orders issued by former Mayor Eric Adams after the October 7 terrorist attacks on Israel and ensuing explosion of anti-Jewish bigotry across the U.S.

Adams’ orders created the Mayor’s Office to Combat Antisemitism, adopted the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance definition of antisemitism, barred city participation in BDS-style discrimination against Israel, protected Israeli investments and economic ties, and directed enhanced NYPD protections for houses of worship.

Mamdani wiped those protections out on day one.

CA has a checklist to make sure you’re gay enough before giving out government contracts– www.louderwithcrowder.com

California is “too gay to function.” And if you are surprised by this, you are not paying attention.

According to Chris Rufo, in California, the left is prioritizing contracts for “state-certified gay-owned businesses.” It is unclear how your business can get certified in gayness, but I digress.

Per City Journal:

In 1986, Governor George Deukmejian signed Assembly Bill 3678, which required certain CPUC-regulated utilities to submit annual “plans” for buying goods and services from woman- and minority-owned companies. Two years later, CPUC created its “Supplier Diversity Program,” which would enforce the law and set contracting “goals” for large utilities.

Under a series of Democratic governors, the program has expanded to include gay-owned businesses. In September 2014, then-Governor Jerry Brown signed legislation requiring CPUC to recognize “LGBT-owned businesses” as eligible for supplier-diversity benefits. Five years later, Governor Gavin Newsom expanded the program further, “encouraging” other companies involved in the energy sector to award contracts to gay-owned firms.

Question: How has this mandate made residents better off? When mandating certain insignificant preferences be prioritized when awarding special contracts, the state ought to be held to some accountability. Why does no one care?

By 2022, CPUC had fully implemented the expansion. In practice, this meant establishing a “goal” for utility companies with annual revenues exceeding $25 million to buy things from state-certified LGBT businesses: 0.5 percent of procurement in 2022; 1 percent in 2023; and 1.5 percent in 2024 and beyond. If “large” CPUC-regulated utilities met these “goals” in 2024, they would have sent roughly $633 million to LGBT-owned firms.

The highest court in Iowa has ruled against the use of race in higher education financial aid programs, joining a growing number of similar court rulings following the Supreme Court’s 2023 decision against the use of race in admissions.

The Iowa case arose from a gift made by Dr. Ezra Totton to the University of Iowa for black students who, like him, wish to pursue a career in chemistry.

Totton had been denied admission to the University of Tennessee in 1939 based on his skin color, and attended the University of Iowa instead. To comply with the Supreme Court’s Students for Fair Admissions ruling, in 2025 the University of Iowa attempted to change the gift’s “black student” qualification to “first generation student.”

SEOUL, South Korea — South Korea’s ousted President Yoon Suk Yeol and his former defense minister were sentenced to 30 years in prison Friday in a case alleging Yoon ordered drone flights over Pyongyang in 2024 to heighten tensions with North Korea and justify declaring martial law at home.

The full version of the Seoul Central District Court’s ruling was not immediately available. The same court earlier sentenced Yoon to life in prison for a rebellion conviction over his short-lived imposition of martial law in December 2024.

North Korea accused Seoul of flying drones over Pyongyang to drop propaganda leaflets three times in October 2024. South Korea’s defense minister at the time, Kim Yong Hyun, issued a vague denial before the Defense Ministry said it could neither confirm nor deny the allegations. Tensions rose sharply but did not lead to any military clashes.
