DNC Watch

Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass (D) is running for re-election. A year after the horrific failures of the Palisades and Eaton Fires that raged while she partied in Ghana on the taxpayers’ dime, you would think she’d either slink under a rock or take some accountability.

Instead, she is making the rounds of D-List Democrat podcasts, like former DNC Chair Jaime Harrison, to reinvent and manufacture a record that doesn’t exist. Bass’ latest revisionist take: The 2025 L.A. anti-ICE Riots were comparable to rowdy sports fans when the Lakers won the championship. Apparently, flaming Waymos and Mexican flags are now standard at championship parades.

Bass also ranted that the National Guard wasn’t needed to quell last summer’s unrest, and alleged that Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers are just modern-day slave patrols.

Border czar Tom Homan questioned Sunday why Minnesota authorities should be involved in investigating an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent’s fatal shooting of a woman, arguing that they have thus far failed to cooperate with the Trump administration.

An ICE agent fatally shot Renee Good while carrying out an enforcement operation in Minneapolis on Jan. 7, prompting emotional reactions from Democratic Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota and Democratic Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis. Homan told “Fox News Sunday” guest host Jacqui Heinrich that Walz and Frey’s “irritates” him after Heinrich mentioned Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem’s comments defending the agent’s actions.

“It is a federal crime to impede or interfere with an ICE officer. … we can see what’s happening throughout the country, I think it’s a funded, organized attack against ICE officers,” Homan said. “And what irritates me is, the left wants to play this game that ICE  they’re not law enforcement officers. They are federal law enforcement officers. Impeding them or interfering with them is a crime.”

Explosive new details have emerged surrounding the fatal shooting of Renee Good in Minneapolis, revealing that anti-ICE activists were actively training locals on how to obstruct federal immigration agents just days before the confrontation turned deadly.

According to screenshots shared by journalist Julie Kelly, a Minnesota chapter of the activist network “ICE Watch” held a virtual training session on Monday.

The training session was only two days before Good was shot dead by an ICE agent in south Minneapolis.

Gun control activist David Hogg suggested during a Sunday morning MS NOW appearance that merely arguing Renee Good may have been in the wrong when she was allegedly fatally shot by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent amounts to “dangerous” rhetoric.

The ousted Democratic National Committee (DNC) vice chair repeatedly used the word “dangerous” to refer to Vice President JD Vance and other Trump administration officials making the case the ICE agent shot Good in self-defense Wednesday in Minneapolis. On the day of the shooting, Assistant Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Secretary Tricia McLaughlin said Good was “attempting to run over our law enforcement officers” and the agent fired the fatal shot “fearing for his life.” DHS Secretary Kristi Noem likewise likened Good’s last actions to “domestic terrorism.”

“I just think about how incredibly dangerous this rhetoric is, regardless of what she wants to say about this person, they were calling her a domestic terrorist before her body was cold,” Hogg, 25, told “The Weekend” co-host Eugene Daniels on Sunday. “That is so dangerous for the government to be doing that. Across the board, we all should be agreeing that there needs to be an investigation here, before we have anybody in the Executive Branch coming and saying, ‘Well, this is exactly who she [Good] was.’”

Despite Democrats’ raging against the agency, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are continuing to arrest illegal migrant child rapists and killers in Minnesota.

Amid their enforcement surge, federal immigration authorities are nabbing “the worst of the worst” criminal illegal migrants all across the Land of 10,000 Lakes, according to ICE Director Todd Lyons. While deportation officers nab gruesome individuals throughout Minnesota, high-profile Democratic politicians are publicly demanding they leave immediately.

Sen. Tina Smith (D-Minn.) said on Sunday she thinks the Trump administration is trying to “cover up” the fatal shooting of a 37-year-old woman by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer by pushing a narrative before investigators were able to gather information. “I think what we are seeing here is the federal government, [Homeland…

Elon Musk issued a stark public warning after a viral TikTok livestream appeared to show a Somali user making a chilling remark about his life, prompting concern and backlash across social media.

The viral clip shows an unidentified TikTok user livestreaming while playing a video of Musk on her phone.

After speaking in Somali, she briefly switched to English and said:

“I wouldn’t worry too much about him. He about to die.”

Someone reportedly fired shots at Vice President JD Vance’s Cincinnati, Ohio, home. The vice president and his family were not in the house at the time.

Local police did arrest a suspect following the gunfire, but there have as yet been no reports of injuries related to the incident, according to Tousi TV. Fox Business, however, reported that the Secret Service detained the suspect.

Sunday morning’s cable news circuit once again demonstrated why senior administration officials so often spend more time correcting media narratives than explaining policy.

Appearing across Meet the Press and Face the Nation, Secretary of State Marco Rubio was subjected to a familiar pattern of questioning: assumptions embedded as facts, motives ascribed rather than examined, and repeated demands to justify actions that were already explained. The pushback Rubio delivered was not theatrical, nor was it evasive. It was corrective. And it was necessary only because the framing itself was flawed.

The first line of attack centered on Venezuela’s oil industry, with the implication that American involvement following the capture of Nicolás Maduro must be driven by resource acquisition rather than security.

In a year when President Donald Trump called Chicago the “most dangerous city in the world” and launched an aggressive deportation campaign, citywide killings ultimately fell to a 60-year low as overall crime continued to drop.

The number of murders in Chicago decreased from 587 in 2024 to 416 last year, a nearly 30% drop, according to Chicago police data. It’s the lowest total since 1965 and the first time in a decade the city has had fewer than 500 slayings in a year.

Violent crime has been declining in Chicago after it peaked during the pandemic in 2021.

The New York Times is demanding that the Canadian government advances it’s rapid expansion of “assisted suicide” laws in order to swiftly euthanize a woman suffering from mental health issues.

It comes as Canada’s spiraling assisted-suicide program is once again under international fire after the United Nations Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities called on the Canadian government to repeal its planned expansion of euthanasia for those suffering solely from mental illness, a policy critics warn will normalize suicide as “healthcare.”

Good thing Vice President JD Vance and his family were not home during this incident.

A man in Ohio was arrested after allegedly breaking the windows at Vice President JD Vance’s residence.

A Secret Service spokesperson shared that the incident occurred in the early hours of Monday.

WLWT reported more on the crime:

A man has been taken into custody by Cincinnati police after officers and Secret Service agents responded to the Cincinnati home of Vice President JD Vance overnight.

The Secret Service confirmed to WLWT that a man has been taken into custody by Cincinnati police after he was detained by Secret Service personnel. Officials say the man has been arrested for “causing property damage, including breaking windows on the exterior of a personal residence associated with the Vice President.”

The agency says it happened shortly after midnight early Monday morning. Secret Service is coordinating with CPD and the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

According to an arrest report obtained by WLWT, William DeFoor, 26, has been arrested in connection to the damage done at the home.

Jimmy Kimmel’s awards acceptance speech Jan. 4 at the Critics Choice Awards included a nod to President Donald Trump.

Kimmel took the stage in a hangar in Santa Monica, California, and sarcastically thanked the president.

“Thanks to all the writers and actors and producers and union members, many of you who are in this room, who supported us, who really stepped forward us and reminded us that we do not take free speech for granted in this city or in this country. Your actions were important, and we appreciate them,” the “Jimmy Kimmel Live!” host said.

Antifa first rose to mainstream prominence during the summer riots of 2020. While how the group managed to recruit so many young people has remained a mystery to most Americans, domestic security expert Kyle Shideler knows its methods well.

“So as to the psychological perspective, you know, you talk about those mug shots. There’s almost, like, if you look at, over the course of 2020, there’s almost like a ‘faces of meth’ campaign,” domestic security expert Kyle Shideler tells BlazeTV hosts Christopher Rufo and Jonathan “Lomez” Keeperman on “Rufo & Lomez.”

There’s nothing like a dramatic military action by President Trump to underline how much National “Public” Radio sounds like DNC Radio. On Weekend Edition Saturday, within hours of Maduro being seized, guest host Daniel Estrin interviewed Sen. Tim Kaine (D-Va.) and energetically pushed that Trump’s actions were illegal:

ESTRIN: You were among the lawmakers who said the Trump administration’s strikes on boats in the Caribbean were illegal. You were even discussing the possibility of those strikes constituting a war crime. So how do you see last night’s operations?

The practice of debanking, of cancelling the bank accounts by undesirables for political and/or religious reasons has been called a myth by the left and denied by the banks accused of doing it. The targets are almost always conservative and/or Christian, with a healthy dose of gun supporters thrown in there for good measure.

Now, the Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has confirmed debanking of non-leftists occurred in 9 banks, which are U.S. Bank, JPMorgan Chase Bank, Wells Fargo Bank, Bank of America, Citibank, Capital One, PNC Bank, TD Bank, and BMO Bank. The Comptroller, Jonathan V. Gould, said, “The OCC is committed to ending efforts – whether instigated by regulators or banks – that would weaponize finance. Although our work continues, the OCC is today providing visibility into the debanking actions against customers and lawful businesses taken by the nation’s

The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency (OCC) has confirmed what many of us have known for years — multiple major banks displayed bias in their financial censorship.

The OCC issued a press release yesterday announcing the results of its preliminary investigation into nine banks regarding their practices of restricting, cutting off, or imposing extra burdens on certain customers. Donald Trump and many of his prominent supporters have suffered financial censorship in recent years, as have companies and whole industries despised by leftists.

“You want something to investigate as a legislature, investigate how many times they’ve called me the N-word.”

During a Georgia Senate Special Committee on Investigations hearing on Wednesday, Fulton County District Attorney Fani Willis was triggered when investigators showed invoices from her former boyfriend Nathan Wade to the Fulton County DA’s office. Instead of responding to questions about them, she called for investigators to look into “how many times they’ve called me the N-word.” She had been called into the legislature to answer for alleged misconduct in her since-dropped 2020 RICO election case against Trump.

“I don’t review those documents,” Willis told lawmakers, “so you’re asking me to look at documents that I haven’t for the first time. What I can tell you is that I allowed Mr. Wade to bill 160 hours a week, and then Mr. Wade would be the first one in the office, making sure that my staff arrived. He corrected their behavior. They thought that 8:30 meant 8:30. He taught them that 8:30 means 7:45. He got there before them, he left after them.” The response came during questioning on how much special prosecutor Nathan Wade was paid. Willis said that she had never seen the invoices displayed during the hearing.

Poor Scott Jennings must struggle to refrain from pulling his hair out nightly on CNN.

On Tuesday, for instance, the network’s resident conservative had to deal with a communications “expert” who apparently cannot communicate.

In a clip posted to the social media platform X, Jennings used a single question to expose the silliness of leftist podcaster Tezlyn Figaro, founder of the Tezlyn Figaro Communications Group, who offered an outlandish explanation for why White House chief of staff Susie Wiles gave an ill-advised interview to Vanity Fair, which the outlet published on Tuesday morning.

“Somebody asked her to take the fall,” Figaro speculated during a panel discussion on “CNN NewsNight.” “I mean, just being honest, somebody needed to come at — I know I’m being a conspiracy theorist.”

Jennings, with a furrowed brow, posed the obvious question.

“Take the fall for what?” he asked.

The federal trial of Milwaukee County Circuit Judge Hannah Dugan begins today, as prosecutors allege she helped an illegal alien escape arrest by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) earlier this year.

Dugan is charged with obstruction of federal proceedings and concealing a person from arrest over her alleged actions involving Eduardo Flores-Ruiz.

Flores-Ruiz is an illegal alien who has since pled guilty to re-entering the U.S. and no contest to one count of battery.

According to court filings cited by Reuters, Dugan became “visibly angry” when she learned that ICE agents were waiting outside her courtroom to arrest Flores-Ruiz.

The mainstream media just loves manufacturing nontroversies, something we saw, for instance, in the New York Times hit pieces in 2024 on Justice Samuel Alito’s wife, Martha, over her once briefly flying the U.S. flag upside down at their home, and for flying the “Appeal to Heaven” flag at their beach home in New Jersey in the summer of 2023.

In the “Appeal to Heaven” flag article, the authors made sure to do the same thing they did in the inverted flag stories: to “link” it to the events of January 6, 2021, and Christian nationalism.

“Also known as the Pine Tree flag, it dates back to the Revolutionary War, but largely fell into obscurity until recent years,” the Times proclaimed, “and is now a symbol of support for former President Donald J. Trump, for a religious strand of the ‘Stop the Steal’ campaign and for a push to remake American government in Christian terms.”

Progressive podcast host, Jennifer Wlech, claimed on Saturday on her “I’ve Had It” podcast that Charlie Kirk “justified” his own assassination because he supported the Second Amendment.

She made her claims while reacting to a clip of Erika Kirk condemning those who had supported, mocked, or justified her husband’s assassination.

“The person that I heard that justified his death was him,” Welch said. “He’s the one that said on tape that if school kids die, but it means he gets to have a Second Amendment, then that’s what it’s going to be. He’s the one that justified it.”

“And I believe at the time of shooting, he was talking about gun violence at the time. That’s wild to me, number one. And then for her — I want to get your opinion on this as a Black man — for her to say that people are dehumanizing Charlie Kirk,” Welch told former CNN host Don Lemon.

Lemon agreed with Welch’s comments.

“Everyone I know prefaces it the same way that you do — he should still be alive. The man should not be dead. However, it is true he promoted guns, he did not want sensible gun legislation, and he said that you have to have a certain amount of casualties, so to speak, in order to have a Second Amendment. He did say that. And he happened to die that way. That’s fact,” he said.

But look, as someone who’s been in grief before, you know, I don’t know. You don’t know how someone’s going to react. But if people of color and members of the LGBTQ-plus community feel a certain kind of way about Charlie Kirk, I understand it because he was not kind to us. As someone who happens to be members of both of those, LGBTQ and a Black person, he wasn’t kind. His thoughts weren’t kind. His words weren’t kind.

 

“I’m not happy that he died at all. But I also did not like what he stood for when he was alive. And I think it’s okay to say that,” he added.

Virginia governor-elect Abigail Spanberger has appointed Stanley Meador the next Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security for the state.

While serving as Special Agent in Charge at the FBI Richmond Field Office, Meador oversaw a since-redacted memo that targeted traditional Catholics.

In a December 4 announcement, Spanberger’s office cited Meador’s decades of service with the FBI and said he had the expertise to make Virginia a place where “every Virginian can safely thrive.”

“Today, I am proud to announce the appointment of Stanley M. Meador to serve as our next Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security,” Governor-elect Spanberger stated. “I know Mr. Meador’s decades of service to our country and our Commonwealth will bring the expertise necessary to protect our citizens, support the brave men and women of law enforcement, and make sure Virginia is a place where every Virginian can safely thrive — no matter their zip code.”

“I am deeply honored and humbled to be nominated as Virginia’s Secretary of Public Safety and Homeland Security. I’m grateful for the trust placed in me by Governor-elect Spanberger,” Meador said in the announcement.

As the nation continues to be roiled by debate over unfettered immigration and terrorism, with such deadly results as the recent D.C. shooting, a new horrifying plot comes into light. And two of the nation’s three broadcast network newscasts couldn’t be bothered to cover it.

NBC did, though. Watch the report in its entirety, as aired on NBC Nightly News on Wednesday, December 3rd, 2025:

TOM LLAMAS: In Delaware a potentially violent attack on a college thwarted after police say they confronted a man and found rounds of ammunition in his car and detailed plans for an attack in his home. Sam Brock has more on the police work that appears to have saved lives.

SAM BROCK: Police in Delaware may have prevented catastrophe after finding this University of Delaware student, Luqqman Khan, inside his truck in a park after hours last week. Officers patrolling the area initiated a traffic stop. Khan was uncooperative and armed, they say, with a loaded Glock handgun, more than 1000 rounds of ammunition and an armored ballistic plate, as well as a notebook that according to the federal complaint states his desire to be a, quote, “martyr”, naming a member of the University of Delaware Police Department has a target. “Battle efficiency, kill all, martyrdom, all combatants”, he wrote.

The fact that martyrdom was invoked, does that add another chilling dimension to the story?

Former FBI Director James Comey got another assist from a Clinton-appointed judge Friday as the Justice Department looks to hold him accountable for his role in Russiagate.

Last month, U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie, a Clinton appointee, ruled that Interim U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan was incorrectly appointed and therefore, the charges brought by her office against Comey were “defective.”

“All actions flowing from Ms. Halligan’s defective appointment … constitute unlawful exercises of executive power and must be set aside,” the judge wrote.

Attorney General Pam Bondi announced at the time that the Justice Department would be appealing the ruling.

Left-wing podcaster Jennifer Welch demanded a boycott of CBS on Monday, saying progressives should seek to make an example of the network after it aired a town hall with Turning Point USA (TPUSA) CEO Erika Kirk.

Mrs. Kirk did a town hall with CBS News Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss that aired Saturday, during which she criticized those who justified the assassination of her husband and TPUSA founder Charlie Kirk. Welch claimed Weiss was turning CBS News into a “propaganda channel.” (

“Okay. So during this Bari Weiss CBS takeover and her first town hall is to roll out Erica Kirk. Mind you, we have so many problems in our country right now. You have a massive financial, uh, economic burdens for so many working-class Americans,” Welch claimed. “You have inflation out the wazoo, health care, all of these things. and she is bringing out Erika Kirk and it’s all they’ve covered for a week straight at CBS News.”

“And listen up, listener, we have agency and we have autonomy,” Welch continued. “Everybody needs to boycott CBS News. They do not get to just come in and say journalism doesn’t matter anymore, we are going to do a propaganda channel. Well, they can do it, but they can’t do it without our money. They cannot do it without our money. They cannot do it if we apply pressure to those advertisers. All of these fascists and all of these oligarchs think they control us and it’s our turn to remind them that we control them. Without our money, you’re nothing. Absolutely nothing.
