DNC Watch

Seth Sikes, Lynette Read Sharp, Nathan Baumann, Joy Abigail Gibson, and John Phillip Thomas have become the first Antifa terrorists convicted of providing material support to terrorists. They were arrested during the assault on the ICE Prairieland facility in Alvarado, TX. Each person could spend up to 15 years in prison.

The group plead guilty under the following terms: “Beginning on or about July 3, 2025, and continuing until on or about July 4, 2025, in the Northern District of Texas, [defendant name] planned with others to provide resources and personnel, including [himself/herself], knowing and intending that they would be used to carry out acts of terrorism.”

Texas Anti-ICE Attackers Become First Antifa Terrorists Convicted – PJ Media

In Texas, a group of anti-ICE attempted murderers has become the first Antifa terrorists to be convicted for domestic terrorism since Donald Trump so designated the radical leftist movement.

Seth Sikes, Lynette Read Sharp, Nathan Baumann, Joy Abigail Gibson, and John Phillip Thomas have gone down in history in the worst way possible as the first convicted Antifa terrorists. They fired on an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility, injuring an officer, in July during an ambush in Dallas.

Former Harvard President and DNC top operative Larry Summers has resigned from all his powerful positions in light of early releases of the Epstein files that show his extensive involvement with the child sex trafficker and child rapist Jeffrey Epstein, whom he called his “wingman.”

The texts between the two also reveal Summers had a love interest, Keyu Jin. His love interest happens to be the daughter of a powerful CCP official, who is a member of a powerful CCP family.

For months, the Democrats have been advocating for the release of the so-called Epstein files, anticipating that they would uncover damaging information about President Donald Trump. However, following the recent release of over 20,000 documents by Congress, the spotlight has turned to prominent Democrat Larry Summers. His troubling connections with Jeffrey Epstein — and potentially the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) —  have raised significant concerns.

Summers has a storied career, having served as Treasury Secretary under President Bill Clinton, directed the National Economic Council under President Barack Obama, and led Harvard University as its president. In 2006, Summers was compelled to resign from his presidency at Harvard after suggesting that the lack of female scientists stemmed from “innate” differences between genders, igniting widespread backlash. Despite this controversy, Summers has remained a significant voice in our society, continuing to teach at Harvard and frequently advising U.S. government officials on crucial economic matters.

Representative Eric Swalwell (D-CA) has announced plans to run for governor of California in 2026. He is also facing potential DOJ charges after Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), sent a letter to the Department of Justice recommending charges for the gubernatorial candidate.

The recommended charges are connected to claims he has used on mortgage applications claiming his $1.2 million Washington D.C. townhouse was his primary residency while he was representing California’s 14th District (which he still does).

Eric Swalwell Criminally Referred to DOJ on Mortgage Fraud, Tax Fraud Allegations – American Greatness

Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-Calif.) has reportedly been criminally referred to the Department of Justice for a potential federal probe into allegations of mortgage fraud, state and local tax fraud, wire fraud and insurance fraud.

Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), sent a letter sent to Attorney General Pam Bondi on Wednesday, alleging that Swalwell may have made false or misleading statements in loan documents, NBC reported on Thursday.

The allegations are reportedly tied to his $1.2 million Washington, D.C., townhouse, which Swalwell listed as his primary residence in 2022, despite representing California’s 14th District and maintaining ties there.

The Democratic National Committee spent $16.9 million this past October, ending the month with $18.3 million in cash. Of that amount, $15 million is from a loan they recently took out to keep the operation afloat. In comparison, the RNC ended the month with $86 million in cash, none of it from loans.

The DNC Is in a Financial Meltdown, and It Could Cost Democrats Big – PJ Media

The Democratic National Committee borrowed $15 million in October, according to Federal Election Commission filings, an unusually hefty sum to take on this far out from any major election. When your party ends the month with $18.3 million in cash on hand, and $15 million of it came from a loan, you’re not exactly working from a position of strength. That’s a bleak scenario.

Martin insists the gamble is already paying dividends. “We can’t win elections or fight back against Trump if the DNC downsizes operations like it often does after a presidential cycle,” he said in a statement. “I made a bet that investing early would build power, rack up wins and rally supporters back to the table. That bet is paying off.” Sure, Democrats managed to win races in New Jersey and Virginia, but those are blue states. Imagine having to take out millions in loans to win elections in blue states.

Two of the DNC’s top funders, George Soros and Reid Hoffman, may soon be facing federal prosecution of Trump’s recent comments regarding the two men. Trump was addressing the anti-ICE terror attacks by ANTIFA black blocs when he claimed, “These are paid agitators… They’re committing acts of political terrorism on American soil. They’re funded by rich radical-left people — Soros, maybe Hoffman — and they’re going to have some problems.”

In a White House presser, the President would later confirm his intentions to begin a RICO investigation into ALL the Antifa funders. He said of these funders “…we’re going to find out if they are funding these things. They’re going to have some problems because they’re agitators and they’re anarchists.”

Secretary of State Marco Rubio announced that the Trump Administration has designated four European Antifa groups as foreign terrorist organizations.

Texas Governor (R) Greg Abbott has declared the Counsil on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Muslim Brotherhood foreign terrorist organizations. The move comes after recent reports of widespread “Sharia” zones discovered in Texas where Islamists are ruling as if they are in Saudi Arabia and not America.

The Governor clarified what the ban means, stating it “bans them from buying or acquiring land in Texas and authorizes the Attorney General to sue to shut them down. The Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR have long made their goals clear: to forcibly impose Sharia law and establish Islam’s ‘mastership of the world.’”

Texas Gov. Greg Abbott on Tuesday designated the Muslim Brotherhood and Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) as “foreign terrorist and transnational criminal organizations.”

Abbott said in a statement.

“The actions taken by the Muslim Brotherhood and CAIR to support terrorism across the globe and subvert our laws through violence, intimidation, and harassment are unacceptable,” he continued.

“Today, CAIR sent a letter to Texas Governor @GregAbbott_TX reminding him that we beat him in federal court the last three times he tried to shred the First Amendment to protect the Israeli government from criticism,” CAIR National stated.

According to Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson, “Access to affordable, healthy food is a basic human right.” This is why she refuses to “allow giant grocery chains to stomp all over communities and close stores at will.” She claims this will “leave behind food deserts.” This is why she will “explore public option grocery stores.”

There are so many things wrong with this statement that it’s hard to know where to begin.

Firstly, I don’t ever recall a time in human history when the government was able to adequately provide food for the entire population. Do you? I didn’t think so. That’s because whenever the government attempts to take over the food supply, people always seem to starve. Weird how that is.

What will never be fully comprehensible is why there are so many people who hate everything about America yet still wish to live here. Not only that, but they seem determined to turn it into the countries they ran away from. Something does not add up.

Dearborn Mayor Abdullah Hammoud claims he “disavows the term melting pot” because his city is not a “soup where everything looks the same.” They are a “salad bowl,” if you will, where “the lettuce is lettuce, the tomatoes are tomatoes, and the cucumbers are cucumbers, and they all complement each other.”

Incoming New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani doubled down on his promise to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu on an international arrest warrant that is not recognized in U.S. law, setting up a potential act of rebellion against federal authority.

The mayor-elect, a self-styled socialist, has repeatedly pledged that if elected mayor, he would direct the New York Police Department (NYPD) to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu should he visit the city. Mamdani has claimed that he has an obligation to do so in order to adhere to “international law,” particularly by honoring an International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant against Netanyahu stemming from the conflict in Gaza.

Pope Leo has come out in support of a rare special message released by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops in recent days that lamented a “climate of fear and anxiety around questions of profiling and immigration enforcement.”

Without mentioning U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration by name, 216 of 224 bishops voted in favour of releasing the message that condemned the “vilification” of migrants and expressed concerns over the fear and anxiety immigration raids have sown in communities, as well as the denial of pastoral care to migrants in detention centres.

Speaking to reporters late Tuesday as he left the papal country house south of Rome, Leo urged Catholics and all people of goodwill to listen to what they said.

“I think we have to look for ways of treating people humanely, treating people with the dignity that they have,” he said. “If people are in the United States illegally, there are ways to treat that. There are courts, there’s a system of justice.”

According to the Jerusalem Post, the Palestinian Assembly for Liberation protesters outside Park East Synagogue, which was hosting an event by Nefesh B’Nefesh, an organization that assists North American Jews moving to Israel, drew swift condemnation from Jewish leaders and elected officials, who described the group’s rhetoric as antisemitic and threatening.

President Donald Trump raised the prospect of War Secretary Pete Hegseth and military courts looking into Democrats the president has accused of sedition for their appeal to active service members and intelligence operatives to defy illegal orders from their commander in chief.

Trump made the comments during an interview with Fox News Radio’s Brian Kilmeade on Friday, but the president did underscore that he doesn’t “know for a fact” that Hegseth is investigating the matter.

“I think Pete Hegseth is looking into it. I know they’re looking into it militarily. I don’t know for a fact, but I think the military is looking into it, the military courts.”

Trump has seized on a video this week made by Democratic lawmakers who served either in the military or the country’s national security apparatus, in which they implore military and intelligence personnel to disobey orders they allege are unlawful without specifying which ones.

New court filings show that former FBI Director James Comey’s indictment on charges of obstructing justice and making false statements to Congress was properly voted on by members of the grand jury.

Lindsey Halligan, the interim U.S. Attorney had admitted to the trial judge on Wednesday that the full grand jury never saw the final version of the charges against Comey.

Comey’s defense team had seized upon that admission as a possible misstep which could doom the prosecution’s case, but filings from Halligan’s office later that same day appear to show that correct procedures were followed and that the charges remain legally valid.

“Judge grills government over apparent lapses in Comey indictment,” ABC News’ Peter Charalambous, Alexander Mallin, Katherine Faulders, and Nicholas Kerr wrote on November 19. According to the quartet, U.S. Attorney Lindsey Halligan “told a judge … that the full grand jury that indicted Comey did not see the final indictment — only the foreperson and another grand juror did.”

It was the same claim made by The Guardian’s Sam Levine, who headlined his piece: “Full grand jury didn’t see final Comey indictment, prosecutors admit.”

The lawmakers, all military veterans, warn of “threats to our Constitution” and repeatedly tell military and intelligence personnel to refuse unlawful commands, though they do not specify what orders they consider illegal.

Concha said their message undermines the principle of civilian control of the armed forces.

“The president is called the commander in chief for a reason,” Concha said. “He gives a command, and the military follows that command — no ambiguity, no interpretation, no debate. That’s how it’s always been and how it should be.”

Cornell grad student union adds resistance ‘by any means’ to anti-Israel resolution

Cornell University’s graduate student union has added support for Palestinian armed resistance “by any means necessary” to a resolution calling for a boycott of Israel that the union will discuss on Thursday.

The union, Cornell Graduate Students United — UE Local 300, in October issued a draft of the resolution to members, titled “International solidarity with the Palestinian liberation struggle.”

From our watchtower here at the Media Research Center, we have identified a recent and nasty trend emerging from the Elitist Media. It’s called “Trumpwashing”: that phenomenon wherein the media withhold covering some Democrat scandal until President Donald Trump opines on it, with President Trump’s statement being covered as if it were the scandal, rather than the underlying and until now suppressed Democrat event.

The latest instance of a Trumpwashed scandal: the video, published by six Democrat members of Congress calling on members of the Armed Forces and Intelligence Agencies to disobey unspecified “illegal” orders. The media held their tongues on the video until Trump spoke up, and the rest is history.

As an evidentiary sample, we submit for your consideration the totality of the Trumpwashed report aired on NBC Nightly News (click “expand” to view full transcript):

The Biden administration hid critical information about Thomas Matthew Crooks — the person who shot President Donald Trump and three others in Butler, Pennsylvania — throughout the 2024 election, according to a report from the New York Post.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) under Biden appears to have knowingly lied to Congress, misled the American people, and, at best, was negligent in its duty to track Crooks after he reportedly made numerous statements about committing political violence and assassinations.

The NYP received information from a source showing that Crooks did have a history of significant online activity, despite then-Biden FBI Director Christopher Wray testifying that Crooks had no “online history that pointed to motive or political ideology.” Wray also attempted to downplay Trump’s being shot by suggesting he may have been hit with a piece of shrapnel from his podium, despite no evidence of that whatsoever.

Paul Abbate, former FBI deputy director under Wray, seemed to muddy the water even more, telling Congress that some social media accounts connected to Crooks “appear to reflect antisemitic and anti-immigration themes to espouse political violence and are described as extreme in nature.”

That is true, but the posts Abbate was referring to — which appear to paint Crooks in some sort of right-wing extremism light — were quite a bit older than posts showing a left-wing, anti-Trump ideology Crooks seems to have adopted over time.

A violent “protester” named “Jihad” was arrested on charges of assault and robbery following a brutal confrontation at a Turning Point USA rally at the University of California, Berkeley.

Antifa thugs attacked conservative attendees at the event on November 10, marking the two-month anniversary of the organization’s founder, Charlie Kirk, Breitbart reported.

The man in custody allegedly stole a necklace from someone in the crowd, which led to a fight.

Both the victim, who was wearing a red shirt emblazoned with “Freedom” like the one Kirk wore on the day he died, and the alleged perpetrator, Jihad Dphrepaulezz, were left bloody from the confrontation.

A spokesman for the Berkeley Police Department said:

“Officers determined that one of the men — Jihad Dphrepaulezz — had stolen the other man’s chain from around his neck.

That couldn’t be further from the truth.

No matter how the NYT and Wales try to spin the narrative, reality remains: The culture wars didn’t “come for Wikipedia.” Wikipedia voluntarily threw itself into the fray — and contrary to its claims, it didn’t remain impartial.
