Peltola can say what she wants. Jay Jones can threaten to kill his opponents’ kids. It doesn’t matter what a Democrat says or does, Democrat voters will still support their candidates because they hate Republicans more than they disapprove of what their candidates have to say.

It’s ONLY Republicans who sit there like someone looking at a piece of jewelry at a cruise stop through every optical device available, clutching pearls over fit, character, and things the candidate did even if it was many years ago. What ever was the point of being one of these suburban Republicans who couldn’t even break ranks for Obama, but now that the Democrats are more insane than ever, now you break?

One side wants to win and I think everyone knows which one that is.

House Freedom Caucus Drops Massive Lame-Duck Agenda, DEMANDS Speaker Mike Johnson and Senate Leader John Thune Take Action Before Republicans Lose the House Majority

The roadmap includes:

-Require voter ID in federal elections
-Codify Trump’s border security policies
-Ban sanctuary cities
-$1 TRILLION in spending cuts
-Tax relief for American families
-Expand Health Savings Accounts
-Fund military modernization
-Freeze government spending
-Expand American energy production
-Ban congressional stock trading
-Pass congressional term limits
-Reform federal spending programs
-Protect Americans’ privacy
-Confirm Trump’s presidential nominees

The Freedom Caucus is demanding Republicans remain in Washington until the agenda is completed.

This is the way to earn back trust with the American people. Get it done.

Cue the freakout from this from the same people who were “TOO BASED” to vote in the midterms btw

For the record—deportations aren’t “too tough” and probably helped *stave off* midterm losses if you look at the exit polling, but it’s true that Noem’s diva-like persona lost the optics battle on them. Nobody cared we were enforcing the law so much as we were blackbagging random abuelas so she could get upvoots on social media.

Now that she’s gone, though, our numbers have gone way up with less of a PR crisis. As I’ve said—real gangsters move in silence!

And if you think Trump is cancelling them (for the 5000th time according to these people lmao)…if so, he wouldn’t have made Stephen Miller his new chief of staff.

[Nick Freitas @NickJFreitas]

If Democrats ever get the power to open the borders the way they really want to…there will come a day when you can’t vote your way out of the problem.

Please vote.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

Only 56% of Christians voted in 2024.

If we got that number to 80%, Republicans would probably never lose another election again.

Get out and Vote today, for Charlie.

[Red Eagle Politics @RedEaglePatriot]

Democrats will not end the war or lower gas prices by winning the midterms. Gas prices are down 31 cents from late September, though.

A Democrat Senate is also not simply a “check on Trump”. That argument can work for the House, but not the Senate.

Trump’s term ends in 2029. Every Senate seat up except Ohio lasts for the entirety of the next presidential term (as of now, assume Dems are favored).

Vote accordingly and get your friends and family to do so as well, we cannot afford a Democrat trifecta, full of amnesty and a packed Supreme Court.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

PBS: “That’s normal”
No it isn’t. It’s third world.
Plenty of states, like Florida, count their ballots in real time and are done on election night.

They want the public to think it’s “normal” to give Democrats every opportunity to cheat.

Stop excepting late mail-in ballots and we wouldn’t have this problem, but they’re not trying to solve it, they’re trying to rig the system.

CHRISTIANS: Don’t get confused about casting your vote…

Here are 3 things a vote is NOT ❌

[Collin Rugg @CollinRugg]

Descendants of the chief who inspired the "Washington Redskins" logo accuse the football team of trying to erase them, call for a meeting with President Trump to get the name restored.

The family of Chief Two Guns White Calf says they were never asked about the name change.

"They tried to erase us, like we didn't exist anymore," said estate lead Kenneth Conway.

The descendants say the Redskins logo brought their family pride, and they want the chief to be remembered.

"They did not even ask our family for approval. They didn't ask for nothing from us. I mean, we literally got erased," said Brock Conway, as reported by WTVR.

"We're hopeful for a meeting with President Trump in order to help get this pushed forward," said Morningstar Gopher.

"There's a lot of diehard Redskins fans down in Washington, D.C. This would be a win-win, I think, for everybody. It would be a win-win for the family because it would be so honored and the history of their ancestor."

The name was removed in 2020 because liberals thought it was a slur. The Washington Commanders are building a new stadium, which is set to open in 2030.

Bring back the Redskins. It's time.

[Steven Crowder @scrowder]

CNN explicitly referred to its Talarico debate segment as "Change My Mind" no less than 10 times.

C'mon. At least pretend like you aren't overtly trying to rip me off.

Clowns.

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

I'm almost in AWE at the masterful level of deception James Talarico employs in this ridiculously viral interview on Jimmy Kimmel.

There is a VERY SUBTLE play getting run on Christians over and over. And once you see it, you can never unsee it.

[Steven Crowder @scrowder]

The Left is running the EXACT same playbook they ran with "very fine people."

The context is right there. They lied anyway, and then doubled down.

These people want to destroy you and put you at risk. The truth is immaterial to them. Get out and vote, or you end up with these people.

TRUMP DANCE IN THE CORNHUSKER STATE — THANK YOU, NEBRASKA!

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

This is the line to see Trump in Nebraska.

He doesn’t take the stage for hours.

Show up to vote with these numbers in the midterms and prove the polls wrong.

[Benny Johnson @bennyjohnson]

Lindsay Clancy’s attorney Kevin Reddington has been DENIED for a THIRD time in his effort to get the murder charges against her thrown out.

Judge William Sullivan rejected Reddington’s latest motion for a required finding of not guilty after he argued there wasn’t sufficient evidence proving Clancy killed her three children.

She needs to be sent to prison for life.

If we had real justice, she would get the death penalty.

[Red Eagle Politics @RedEaglePatriot]

You showed up and voted on November 3rd, 2026, and voted red no matter who. You took ten people with you who did the same thing.

Republicans swept the board in the Senate—only losing North Carolina, which they traded for Michigan. They narrowly lost the House, losing just four seats on net, and needing a paltry gain of two to reclaim the chamber in two years’ time.

The Democrats are utterly demoralized. They tried EVERYTHING over the last ten years, and now may be left with a snowball’s chance in hell to reclaim the Senate any time over the next decade. While Chuck Schumer reportedly said “I told you so” after late Detroit returns were not enough to save Abdul El-Sayed from losing to Mike Rogers in an upset victory, the DSA fire on the left just barely started to burn.

Hakeem Jeffries, much like Kevin McCarthy in 2022, was on the hot seat. Under fire by a new coalition of safe D district DSA lunatics who wanted him removed from leadership over disagreements on two issues, the theatre kids obstructed session for months as they could not come up with a feasible solution. They eventually settled on Pramila Jayapal, but it did not matter, as the Trump-pardoned Henry Cuellar and “DeSantis Democrat” Jared Moskowitz switched parties at a joint press conference, expressing displeasure with the direction of their party and blaming the party’s directional change for both narrowly winning races they should have won convincingly.

The right, on the other hand, is extremely relieved that they came out of the Midterms relatively unscathed. The establishment, who not only lost power due to outgoing Congressmen being replaced with more members of the Patriot Class, became frustrated as they knew that the odds of a pre-Trump reset declined with improbable electoral victory. The most nationalist administration in recent history, especially on trade and immigration, decimated expectations despite low public approvals, and found a way to keep the House and Senate. Many focused their energy on the DSA, and claimed it was “the crazies on the left that caused this” or “See? The war isn’t THAT unpopular!”, but they virtually embodied the masked seething wojak as JD Vance’s 2028 odds skyrocketed.

The “retard right” is soon dead. They melt down over the Midterms, claiming “THE JEWS STOLE IT!” from the Democrats. Lies about immigration, Israel, and Epstein backfired, and many just outright started claiming to be Democrats out of “irony”. Nick Fuentes says on stream “we are fucked. Let the Democrats win until 2036, and then I will fix it”. But nobody cares. Tucker Carlson endorses Ro Khanna ahead of the 2028 primary, citing “Israel” before maniacally laughing. Their political project is dead, and it dies even more in the ensuing year as Trump rights the ship of his administration in the public eye. The Candace Owens lesbian sex tape leaks in late 2027, to which she first claimed “the Jews made me do it”, before subsequently claiming it was AI.

The Republican Senate also lost establishment RINO hacks Mitch McConnell, Thom Tillis, John Cornyn, and Bill Cassidy. They gained upgrades across the board including Ken Paxton, who instantly made it a priority to sign on to the SAVE Act. While John Thune was stunned in disbelief that the GOP would hold on to the chamber, he fended off a challenge from Josh Hawley by promising to lower the filibuster requirement to 53. While Lisa Murkowski was a NO vote on the SAVE Act, Susan Collins gave a long speech expressing concern before voting YES. Senator Fetterman (R-PA) signed on to the bill to push it over the top. Murkowski, Boozman, Crapo, Young, Grassley, and Lankford all get primaried out or retire ahead of 2028.

Trump’s blockade in Iran also was proven to be a slow yet decisive success. Oil prices fell to 70 dollars per gallon, then 60. Iran had no money left for missiles, nor terror, and were not able to overcome the newly armed regime protestors. Tucker Carlson cries on stream for 20 minutes. By the two-year anniversary of the initial attack, the regime folded entirely. Israel and the new regime clean up any insurgents on their own. At a press conference with the Shah in mid-2028, Trump said “I won the war to end all wars, now the Middle East can have peace!” Gas in The Woodlands, TX falls to $1.89 per gallon as the US obtains control of Iran’s oil and begins to refine Venezuela’s. Without Hamas and Hezbollah, Lebanese Christians gained more political power, and a peace deal for the entire region seems on the horizon. The US acquires more rights to Greenland and liberates Cuba. Rubio becomes their leader in addition to being the US Secretary of State. Panama folds on the canal, knowing they are next. The American Empire grows.

There was also no slowdown on immigration enforcement, as the GOP performing better in Hispanic-heavy areas than expected made the usual suspects silent on the matter. Deportation numbers doubled YOY by early summer, as Trump applied a yearly renewal fee to existing H1B and similar visaholders. Housing prices plummeted further, and interest rates declined, which gave young Americans a shot at the American dream once again. The foreign-born population declines by 10 million by the end of Trump’s term. While many say more needs to be done, it has unprecedentedly improved the quality of life for Americans everywhere. The job market improves for young men in the process, and Trump’s approval rebounds among those in the real world. In a newly argued case, the Supreme Court rescinds birthright citizenship, retroactively applying it for 10 years. Many more people self-deport.

At the local level, Ohio Governor Vivek Ramaswamy launched a formal investigation into H1B visa abuse and coordinated with ICE to remove Haitian nationals whose TPS recently expired. Florida Governor Byron Donalds coordinated with ICE to deport James Fishback, an Israeli citizen denaturalized and deported for committing immigration fraud. Israel subsequently deported him to Uganda, because they didn’t want him either. Texas Railroad Commissioner Bo French used his newfound leverage to get oil barons to fund immigration restrictionist candidates in GOP primaries. Wisconsin Governor Tom Tiffany becomes the most popular governor in US history. Republicans decisively sweep the gubernatorial races in Mississippi, Louisiana, and Kentucky—winning the trio for the first time in US history.

Republican states also won the gerrymandering war, as they net 15 reliably red seats after states such as Maryland and Colorado traded blows with South Carolina and Indiana. VRA §2 is dead. While Sherrod Brown is running for Senate yet again to give the Democrats a longshot bid at the upper chamber, their impending nominations of Francesca Hong in Wisconsin and Nasif Majeed in North Carolina appear to only allow the GOP to pad their Senate majority. As Trump’s approval ticks back toward 50, JD Vance is the clear favorite to win the 2028 Election. And as the angry Democrats who blamed Jeffries for “throwing the House away” appear on the verge of nominating AOC, it may not particularly be close. Vance would cement the realignment, as the patriot class continues to ascend and take their country back from an establishment gone rogue.

Guys, it's either one or the other. Get the fuck out and vote.

[HausenKS 🌾 @HausenKS]

The funniest part about the Chiefs dynasty is watching years of losing to Kansas City slowly turn otherwise normal NFL fans into conspiracy theorists.

A call goes KC’s way and suddenly they’re connecting red string on a corkboard between Roger Goodell, Taylor Swift, State Farm and the officiating crew.

You can show them the replay in 4K, the rulebook, three camera angles and a sworn affidavit from God himself and they’ll still say:

“Yeah but Mahomes gets all the calls.”

The Chiefs didn’t just beat your team. Apparently they broke your perception of objective reality. 😎

🚨 JUST IN: The DA's office just filed a GAG ORDER against Lindsay Clancy attorney Kevin Reddington after he helped DOX lone holdout juror Michael Desronvil

GOOD! Don't just gag order him, DISBAR HIM and investigate for JUROR intimidation

Reddington is noticeably QUIET in front of the press ahead of today's hearing.

Big tough guy got quiet now that consequences might be coming.

He's scum! Don't let him practice the law anymore!

[Josh Howerton @howertonjosh]

Watch the bait-and-switch:

A) When the Bible is used to advance a “conservative” cause, it’s “evil Christian Nationalism” (that he’s spent his entire campaign decrying) or it’s “forcing your religion on other people” and must be FORECEFULLY DENOUNCED.

But when the Bible is used to advance a progressive cause, aw shucks it’s just me being Christlike, “speaking truth to power”, and seeking “justice” or “compassion.”

His whole campaign is, ”Christian Nationalism for ME, but not for THEE” and hoping you won’t notice.

B) What progressives do is take the commands Jesus gave to INDIVIDUALS and apply them to the GOVERNMENT.

When Christians use words like “caring” or “generous” they mean caring for people and being generous with their own resources.

When progressives use the words “caring” and “generous”, they mean “vote for the government to forcibly take OTHER PEOPLE’S RESOURCES at gunpoint and redistribute it against their will.”

Of course, this *always* backfires because governments do not work like people and churches, so with governments you tends to get more of what you INCENTIVIZE and less of what you PENALIZE.

This is why cities and states that throw billions of $ at “solving homelessness” end up with MORE HOMELESSNESS, they do not “solve homelessness.”

This is a theology-nerd thing, but in general progressives want the government to do the roles of the church and individual (charity, compassion, care), and they want NOBODY to do the role of the State (administer justice and be a “terror to the wrongdoer”).

^^^this always results in societal chaos and darkness.

Further…

What Talarico (and other progressives) always do is selevtively edit Jesus, so that he becomes a mascot for their cause.

I can do a “when Jesus…” list too, but James won’t like mine…

- When Jesus defined marriage, he defined it as only between a man and a woman

- When Jesus talked about gender, he rooted it in biology, saying “he made them male and female”

- When Jesus talked about harming children (abortion), he said it would be better for you to have millstone tied around your neck and be cast into the ocean

- … that time when Jesus encouraged his followers to buy weapons for self-defense (Luke 22:36)

- Jesus’ family strictly obeyed the government’s border / migration / census laws.

- When Jesus talked about salvation, he said belief in him was the ONLY WAY

- When Jesus healed the sick, he didn’t need a deductible… there were no insurance companies in AD 30, and Jesus was using miraculous power, not paying doctors. This would be like an anti-vaxxer saying “JESUS WASNT VACCINATED!” as justification for their position)

- When Jesus fed the hungry, he FED THE HUNGRY. He did not vote for the government to forcibly take other people’s stuff at gunpoint and redistribute it against their will.

I could go on and on and on and on…

The point is, Jesus is a LORD of the universe, not a MASCOT for your cause.
