‘Voters are fed up’: Michigan primary forces Democratic party to accept leftwing shift – The Guardian
News Source
Democrat State Attorneys from across the country were coordinating their efforts to plot legal entanglements for President Trump before the 2024 election, while Biden was still running against Trump.
The group was called “Privileged & Confidential Common Interest Agreement.” It was a secret society of progressive DAs who wanted to go outside the bounds of government accountability record-keeping to plot their intentions to sabotage the Trump Presidency. What hasn’t been revealed is whether progressive judges were in that group.

EXCERPT:
Long before Donald Trump took the oath of office for his second term — heck, before he was even reelected — Democrat state attorneys general were already building the machine designed to stop him.
Records show that at least 22 Democrat attorneys general joined a coalition called the Project for Federal Accountability starting in April 2024, roughly seven months before Trump defeated Kamala Harris. Seven attorneys general signed the agreement on April 28, 2024. Thirteen more joined in May and June.
The pact was called “Privileged & Confidential Common Interest Agreement.” It was built to do exactly what it sounds like: Keep the states’ coordination hidden from the public and from anyone who might dare oppose them in court. The signers said they wanted to pursue their shared legal interests “while avoiding any waiver of the confidentiality of those privileged materials.” Translation: Total secrecy while colluding against a sitting president who hadn’t even taken office yet.
To me, the most significant part of this pact is that Biden was still in the race when the first signatures went on that agreement in April 2024. He wouldn’t drop out for nearly three months. The sitting Democrat president was telling the country he intended to serve another term, the party was acting like he was going to win, all while Democrat attorneys general were already plotting to stop Trump upon his inevitable return to office.

EXCERPT:
ABC, CBS, and NBC popped the clutch Thursday morning and went full-speed in defending “progressive” Michigan senatorial candidate Abdul el-Sayed, brushing off the “blistering attack” by President Trump and the GOP as a distraction from “Americans’ concerns over the economy” and proof they’ve “seiz[ed] on” some of his policy views.
While they weren’t the worst, CBS Mornings has to come first here for congressional correspondent Caitlin Huey-Burns’s use of an all-too-predictable jab at the right that’s well past a pejorative and reached drinking-game-word territory: “Seized.”
Before that, featured co-host Vladimir Duthiers referred to Trump’s predictable criticisms of el-Sayed as somehow “a blistering attack.” Take note of the b-word as we’ll see it again on another network.
Duthiers also cued up Huey-Burns, stating in part “Republicans are already on the attack” after the primary by “accusing progressive Democrat Abdul el-Sayed of being too extreme[.]”

EXCERPT:
The leader of a moderate Democrat group said members are gearing up for a battle with democratic socialists who may try to capture the presidential nomination in 2028, the New York Times (NYT) reported Thursday.
Some Democrats, including Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), have been warning against the rising influence of socialists and communists in the Democrat Party, Breitbart News reported Wednesday.
Indeed, Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed beat establishment Democrat Rep. Haley Stevens (D-MI) in Tuesday’s primary in Michigan, where “the radical transformation of the Democratic Party is center stage,” Breitbart News said Wednesday:
El-Sayed, a public health official and former failed candidate for governor in 2018, delivered the most high-profile win to date for the movement increasingly calling the shots in Democrat politics. While he is not a formal member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), the ascendant power center of left-wing American politics, elected officials identifying as democratic socialists, including Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY), campaigned hard for him over several months leading up to the August primary.

HANNITY: “Why is the silence so deafening among your other Democrats?”
FETTERMAN: “Well, I mean, they’re afraid of them, honestly.”
“I mean, they can say that in politics, you can define what you’re afraid of is if you’re unwilling to criticize them.”
“I think it’s entirely appropriate. I think it’s a responsibility as a Democrat to call this out.”

EXCERPT:
As the midterm primary season keeps rolling along, it’s becoming more and more obvious that socialist candidates are having an electoral moment. Riding high on endorsements from the king of the socialists himself, Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT), avowed socialists like Donavan McKinney in Michigan’s 13th congressional district and Abdul El-Sayed in the Michigan Senate race have emerged victorious from their primaries.
Getting the Bernie Sanders seal of approval can make or break a budding Marxist politician – and he’s usually more than happy to endorse them all.
All except one.
It turns out that there’s a socialist candidate whose bonkers behavior is too much for even Bernie Sanders.
Before the big revelation, keep in mind that Sanders has previously endorsed Democrats like Jamaal Bowman, the infamous Capitol fire alarm puller who has dabbled in 9/11 conspiracy theories, and Cori Bush, the former Squad member who thought she could heal the sick.
The socialist candidate who has fallen short of Bernie’s approval is none other than Francesa Hong. Sanders revealed on the far-left Pod Save America show – hosted by two former Barack Obama staffers who apparently are the pinnacle of Democrat bro-dom – that he’s just not that into Hong.
Bernie on whether he’ll endorse Hong:

Under the guise of focusing on House and Senate races, Sanders told the podcasters he’s staying out of Hong’s race to become Wisconsin governor.
Sanders noted he met Hong “a couple of years ago” and called her “very, very nice.” But the Vermont progressive added he is “not that familiar” with the race to succeed term-limited Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers (D).
“We have not gotten involved in many governors races. … My major concern right now is seeing that we have a Senate and a House that is going to stand up to [President] Trump,” the senator said.
The Left’s Fake Conversion To Religious Liberty– www.lifenews.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
The progressive legal establishment for years treated religious freedom exemptions as obstacles to be dismantled, threatening the livelihoods, consciences, and institutions of Christian business owners, healthcare workers, and even nuns.
Now, the left is embracing the very religious-liberty arguments it spent years working to defeat.
Religious exemptions have typically rested on one of two legal foundations: the First Amendment’s protection of religious exercise or the Religious Freedom Restoration Act, which requires the government to justify substantial burdens on religious practice under the strictest level of judicial scrutiny.
This shift on the left is not merely rhetorical. Hoosier Jews for Choice has sued for religious exemptions from Indiana’s abortion ban, arguing that the law conflicts with Jewish teachings about when life begins. The Latino Christian National Network and other Christian and Jewish organizations have invoked religious freedom in challenges to ICE enforcement near houses of worship and in efforts to protect faith groups that shelter illegal immigrants.
El-Sayed’s Michigan Victory: The Communist, Antisemitic Takeover of the Democrat Party Is No Longer an Aberration– gellerreport.com

EXCERPT:
Although Republicans think El-Sayed will be defeated in November I find this DSA trend solidly entrenched within the walls of the Democrat Party to be beyond alarming. It is no longer an aberration.
AIPAC spent over $31 million to defeat this Hamas inclined political imposter.
El-Sayed’s victory is an exceptionally narrow one, but the Squad, Mamdani, Bernie Sanders, Hasan Piker and their fellow travelers will be feeling vindicated and doubtless have already popped the champagne corks.
In Michigan Trump defeated Harris by only 1.4% and Slotkin defeated Rogers by a mere .3% of the vote in 2024 so Michigan is still a swing state. A minor amount of voter fraud could ensure a DSA victory there in November.
Sickeningly, the drumbeat against Israel is getting louder. Bizarrely, all candidates on the Left have to do to receive applause is to say they won’t take any money from AIPAC. If they follow that by saying Israel is committing genocide in Gaza the applause turns into a standing ovation.

Protesters in Wisconsin have established an autonomous zone in downtown Madison following the police shooting of Corey Ruiz.
The area, called the “Corey Ruiz Autonomous Zone” or “CRAZ” was established following the July 22 police shooting of Ruiz, an armed felon who was killed after allegedly attacking a police officer with a knife. According to a report by the Gateway Pundit, protesters set up barricades made out of furniture, spike strips, and wooden pallets. They also set up tents and occupied part of the city in a manner similar to Seattle’s CHOP/CHAZ zone in 2020.
WMTV15 News reported that the city of Madison has been aiding the movement, placing portable restrooms in the area. District 6 Alder Davy Mayer said the city was working on providing basic services, including using city salt trucks as street blockades in place of trash cans. He also said a homeless population moved into the zone.

In Missouri, the “moderate’ Democrat defeated the far-left progressive in the Missouri 1st House. In Virginia, the “moderate” Democrats won most House races. For Trump-endorsed candidates, it was a near sweep in all races, which include Michigan, Missouri, Kansas, Virginia, and Washington.

The winner will face off against Republican Mike Rogers. General election polling has Stevens running close to even with Rogers, El-Sayed significantly behind. But that’s a long way off.

Marxist former Seattle City Councilmember Kshama Sawant’s attempted political comeback appears to have ended in humiliation after voters boxed her out of Washington’s 9th Congressional District general election.
Rep. Adam Smith, Washington’s longest-serving member of Congress, led Tuesday’s primary with approximately 51 percent of the vote.

Sawant was stranded in third place with just 13 percent, barely ahead of fellow far-left candidate Melissa Chaudhry.

Socialist William Lawrence wins Democratic primary in Michigan race– www.washingtonexaminer.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
William Lawrence, a progressive insurgent, upset the Democratic establishment Tuesday to win the tense primary to run against Rep. Tom Barrett (R-MI), possibly thwarting one of the top pickup opportunities for Democrats in November.
Lawrence led with a plurality of the vote in the three-way field, 43%, when the Associated Press called the race at 11:23 p.m. Former U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine Bridget Brink had 29%, while former Navy SEAL Matt Maasdam had 28%. 55% of the vote was tabulated when the race was called.
The bitter battle between Brink and Maasdam to secure the nomination was turned upside down by the upstart Lawrence, whose surge in the weeks leading up to the primary was enough to clinch the nomination. As attack ads ran against both Brink and Maasdam in the closing weeks, Lawrence ended up being the beneficiary and clinched the nomination.
If you want to get the promised 30% discount of Mamdani’s Socialist grocery stores, you’re going to need Photo ID confirming you are a resident of the city.

Mamdani, who hates Voter ID, will require it for his grocery stores– www.louderwithcrowder.com
News Source
EXCERPT:
In America, the left has determined that mandating ID for voting in federal elections is, in fact, racist. This is why it is bizarre, hypocritical, and illogical, based on leftist standards, that NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani will be requiring ID to obtain goods at his future municipal grocery stores.
The double standards sure are doubling, aren’t they?
According to Mamdani, this is not a program for “people to make a quick buck through reselling.” It is for New Yorkers “to put people’s food on the table.” While they tried to downplay this by claiming a library card may suffice, they know exactly how asinine it is for them to demand you are who you say you are, as they imply people do not follow the rules, but could not care less about those standards at the ballot box. To call this a threat to Democracy would be an understatement.
Mamdani’s DSA and Democrat elected leaders at large have opposed voter ID or even ensuring citizenship before voting. A majority of Americans support voter ID and citizenship-only voting with verification. The DSA endorsed DSA-member Mamdani ahead of his election, and claims, “Our candidates for office stand firm against racist voter ID laws and secret poll taxes like the ‘SAVE America Act.'”

CNN feted self-avoided Marxist Hasan Piker on their “Whole Story” episode called “The Left Insurgency.” The show was billed as an objective examination of the rise of the Democratic Socialists. It ended up being a celebration of the rise of the DSA, with Hasan Piker featured in the event at the beginning and the end.
Hasan Piker has endorsed terrorism by Hamas and by Antifa regularly on his twitch streams, where hundreds of thousands of children and young adults regularly hear messages endorsing political violence. Piker ended the “documentary” by declaring “there is 0% chance that whoever the elected Democrat is that wins the primary will be pro-Israel in any way, shape or form. You’ll see.”

EXCERPT:
On Sunday, CNN aired a “Whole Story” special on what it called “The Left Insurgency”, which is Elitist Media shorthand for the DSA takeover of the Democrat Party. The documentary, hosted by Donie O’Sullivan, promised to examine the “new generation” of Democrat voters and include some Democrat dissenters. In the end, though, the doc proved to be little more than a promotional vehicle for Hasan Piker, who infamously said that America deserved 9/11.
The documentary is bookended, in fact, by Piker. O’Sullivan opens the doc with their interactions at the 2024 Democratic convention and closes it out with Piker’s prediction that the 2028 Democrat nominee won’t be an Israel supporter. Following that initial interaction with Piker, first mention of David Hogg and a cringe-inducing chat with actress Cynthia Nixon at a No Kings Rally, one gets the first serious indicator that this is little more than a fluff piece.

PANEL MODERATOR: Is Israel committing genocide in Gaza?
O’SULLIVAN: Hogg and Piker are now part of an insurgency.
KAITLAN COLLINS: Hogg has pledged to spend millions funding primary challenges to what he calls “asleep-at-the-wheel Democrats.”
O’SULLIVAN: Hasan Piker, who, to quote Politico…

RALLY ATTENDEES: DSA! DSA! DSA!

RALLY HOST: Senator Bernie Sanders!
O’SULLIVAN: Today, they are holding a rally here in the Bronx in support of their New York candidates.
BERNIE SANDERS: Thank you. It is not Bernie. It is you. It’s all of us together. The work that you did to elect Zohran (Mamdani) as mayor will not only impact this city, it is reverberating all over the world.
O’SULLIVAN: You’re a democratic socialist.
DARIALIZA AVILA-CHEVALIER: I am.
O’SULLIVAN: You’ve never run for office before. Darializa Avila Chevalier is one of the candidates running for DSA in New York.
AVILA-CHEVALIER: Folks need to be able to see themselves in the Democratic Party again. I, like them, have felt abandoned by the establishment that is sending all our money onto these foreign wars. We need folks who are willing to reinvest that money into our communities, into our babies, making sure that we have universal childcare, free public education from cradle to college.
It bears noting that there is no examination of DSA candidate Darializa Avila-Chevalier (DAC) beyond a carefully curated pair of quotes. There is no examination of her history as an organizer of the violent anti-Israel protests at Columbia University, or of her more radical policy positions. For that matter, there is no examination whatsoever of what the DSA actually stands for, except its opposition both to AIPAC and to the Democrat establishment. No mentions of the things they want to seize and/or abolish. Conversely, there is no mention of the DSA’s use for the Democrat Party as little more than a ballot access vehicle.
The first segment closes out with, you guessed it: Hasan Piker. Coming back from the break, we get O’Sullivan’s first mention of communism: not as the natural end result of the policies publicly espoused by the DSA, but by invocation of the ghost of Joe McCarthy, and the live Donald Trump.

JOE McCARTHY: One communist on the faculty of one university is one communist too many.
O’SULLIVAN: Communism and socialism have long been bad words in American politics, dating back to the McCarthy hearings and the Cold War. America stood for capitalism.
DONALD TRUMP: They use the word Social Democrat because it sounds so nice, but it’s really communism you’re talking about.
O’SULLIVAN: But that is changing.
ANAND GIRIDHARADAS: You understand, I think rightly, this is a social democracy. This is not Gulag socialism. This is not the Soviet Union socialism.
HARRY ENTEN: Socialism, on the other hand, up like a rocket. Look at this. 2 in 3 Democrats have a favorable view of socialism.
O’SULLIVAN: Capitalism is even less popular among young people.
DAVID HOGG: If politicians want to know how to get elected, it is not complicated. Do your job and represent the people. Not the special interests buying out our elections.
What I think a lot about is the fact that if we do not start making our political system work for people that feel like they are living in a broken promise where they’ve done as a generation everything we’ve been told on average, right? We’ve gone to college at some of the highest rates of anybody, of any generation in American history. Contrary to popular belief, we’ve actually voted at the highest rates of any generational cohort at our age in American history. Consistently.
There is a fascinating juxtaposition here between the McCarthy quote, the recent palatability of socialism among the younger set and the Hogg line about his generation going to college at the high rate. The institutional rot in our academic institutions has proven McCarthy right!
In a disgusting aside, O’Sullivan lumps the shooting of President Trump and the assassination of Charlie Kirk along with the assassination of the United Health CEO- all the purported work of anti-capitalists who lost “belief in the system.”

One might think all the energy and excitement about a new generation of candidates might be a cause for celebration within the Democratic Party.
JAMES CARVILLE, WIELDING A BEIGNET: This is what I call a sign of advanced civilization.
O’SULLIVAN: But not for party veteran James Carville. How are you feeling about the midterms?
CARVILLE: I feel very good. The only thing that can derail us, we could nominate some of the wrong candidates in the wrong place and not be as successful as, I hope.
O’SULLIVAN: The wrong candidates. What do you mean by that?
CARVILLE: All right, let’s take in Michigan. And El-Sayed is highly competent, but he’s way left. I see challenges from the quote, “progressive left,” unquote, and these people are too hard headed to know that they’re not popular. People don’t like them. And, but if you get a skewed turnout in a primary, you might end up losing a race that you should have never lost in the first place.
O’SULLIVAN: When you say “progressive left,” you sort of- there’s a tone of contempt there.
CARVILLE: Yeah. Yeah. So you were very wise. I hope the camera was able to pick up the contempt.
O’SULLIVAN: This is high definition. Yes.
CARVILLE: They don’t win elections. They never run against Republicans. They just run against other Democrats. And their only message is, “we’re going to blow everything up.”
After some more Democrat dissent over antisemitism concerns and several additional doses of Piker, O’Sullivan balances things out by highlighting Cori Bush’s attempted comeback, and with David Hogg depicting AIPAC support as a moral evil comparable to that of the NRA.
After a chat with the Pod Save Obama bros who talk themselves into submitting to the DSA takeover, the doc closes out. Viewers get an upbeat depiction of the DSA candidates and a quick rundown of the issues- particularly Israel. The dissenters get a closing argument but the last word belongs to: you guessed it, Hasan Piker, predicting that the 2028 Democrat nominee will not be “pro-Israel in any way.”

O’SULLIVAN: Will you endorse the 2028 candidates if they are pro-Israel in a way that you don’t like? If you ultimately are about defeating fascism in this country as you describe it surely. Shouldn’t you get on board with whoever the main candidate is?
PIKER: Luckily, I don’t think I’ll have to make that calculation at all, because there is 0% chance that whoever the elected Democrat is that wins the primary will be pro-Israel in any way, shape or form. You’ll see.
This documentary was not so much an exposition of the threat faced by the Democratic Party as it was a call to submission. There is no other purpose this slop could possibly serve given O’Sullivan’s treatment of the subject matter, the individuals he chose to elevate, its timing ahead of the critical Michigan primary and the lack of coverage devoted to what the DSA actually stands for.

The news follows massive criticism of the city’s response to the Bite of Seattle mass shooting.
Multiple sources told The Post Millennial Wednesday evening that Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson has asked Police Chief Shon Barnes to resign, ending his tenure just days after the deadly Bite of Seattle mass shooting intensified scrutiny of his leadership, his frequent travel, and his absence from the city during the tragedy.
Barnes was spotted leaving a vigil for the victims of the shooting in Seattle Center by Post Millennial staff before the event began and went to City Hall, where he was asked to resign
Fox 13 reported that Barnes began texting people Wednesday night about his dismissal. Wilson’s office has not replied to requests for comment.
The move comes after a tumultuous week for Barnes, who faced mounting criticism over both the police response to the shooting and his own whereabouts when it unfolded.
Three people were killed, and several others were wounded Sunday evening after gang members opened fire during the closing hours of the Bite of Seattle festival. Barnes was in Dallas attending a National Organization of Black Law Enforcement Executives conference when the shooting occurred.

EXCERPT:
New York City is supposedly studying reparations. It is unclear what needs to be studied, considering no one alive today was a slave, nor was anyone alive today a slave owner. Nonetheless, that won’t stop Mayor Zohran Mamdani from not ruling out handing over cash to people who were never victims, all paid for by people who never committed these crimes.
When Mamdani was asked if he supports reparations if a commission recommended it, he failed to rule it out and clarified he believes, “in New York City, we were very complicit” when it comes to slavery, and that paying people who were never slaves may need to be done to “acknowledge what history truly was.”
I do not have to tell you why this is an asinine idea, but for a city that continues to face massive budget deficits and needs assistance from the Gov. to bail itself out, the last thing these people should be doing is paying people based on skin color.
Question: What about White people who are descendants of slaves? Will they also be getting a paycheck for never being a victim?
While I am no legal expert, this does not seem to be what you would call “legal.” Not only do they want to punish and reward people based on ancestral crimes, but they are engaging in a whole other level of evil to make the premise be about skin color.

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is facing mounting criticism after four Jewish bar associations accused his administration of excluding Jewish representation from a newly appointed judicial advisory committee despite City Hall describing the panel as a “truly representative cross-section” of the city’s legal profession.
Backed by the Anti-Defamation League (ADL), the organizations are demanding that Mamdani revise the 19-member committee.
The panel plays a key role in screening and recommending candidates for judgeships across New York City’s Criminal, Family, and Civil Courts.
The controversy comes as concerns over antisemitism continue to grow across New York City.
Wisconsin Socialist Gov Candidate’s Campaign Denies She Wants to Abolish Senate, Despite Post From Campaign Acct Saying ‘Abolish the Senate’– www.westernjournal.com

EXCERPT:
Francesca Hong is the latest Democratic Socialists of America darling to shoot to a surprising lead in a Democratic primary, this one for Wisconsin governor.
This has been a boon for U.S. Rep. Tom Tiffany, the unopposed Republican candidate for governor. He’s been noting that Hong, a former ramen shop owner and state assembly member, seems to echo a lot of the DSA’s radical agenda — including abolishing the U.S. Senate.
Hong’s campaign accused him of “telling lies and inventing quotes,” saying she never called for abolishing the Senate.
Except, of course, for that one time she posted on her current campaign account, “Abolish the Senate.”
The to-do began on Sunday, when DSA co-chair Megan Romer went viral for defending her positions on Fox News. This includes abolishing the police, abolishing prisons, abolishing the Senate, defunding the Department of War, and other such fun stuff.
“This sounds a lot like DSA-backed @FrancescaHongWI,” Tiffany said in an X post, along with the Romer video. “Socialism is knocking on Wisconsin’s door. This November, we slam it shut.”
This sounds a lot like DSA-backed @FrancescaHongWI.
Does she want to abolish the police? Yep.
The Marxist-Islamist Mayor of New York City, Zohran Mamdani, has just released what appears to be a de facto proscription list for his foreign-paid street fighters to target. He released a list of property owners, including their names and addresses, who own another home outside the city.
While the information is public, the signal is clear; Attack these people. Mamdani ally and national Democrat Socialists of America co-chair Megan Romer made that clear when she said on Fox News “We will win by making conditions so intolerable to the ruling class that they would rather give in to our demands than live with the disturbance we cause.” Disturbance is a dog whistle for violence. Ruling Class is a dog whistle for white people.
Mamdani Doxxes NYC Property Owners, Quietly Expands Reach of New Tax– legalinsurrection.com

New York City Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani is facing widespread criticism after his administration on Monday published a searchable database identifying wealthy property owners who may be subject to the city’s pied-à-terre tax. The administration says the database is intended to promote transparency. Critics, however, argue it effectively “doxxes” property owners by making them easier to identify and locate, unnecessarily exposing them to harassment, vandalism, and even potential acts of violence.
Mamdani is also drawing criticism for including properties valued between $1 million and $5 million in the database, despite repeatedly promoting the pied-à-terre tax as applying only to properties worth $5 million or more. As it turns out, that was part of the plan — which I’ll return to shortly.
The Department of Finance’s online database allows anyone to search properties and access the names and addresses of owners whose non-primary residences could be affected by the proposed tax.
A Department of Finance spokesperson told Fox News that state law required the publication of the property assessment roll: “As per State law, a property roll was released for public inspection. From this list, DOF will identify properties that may be subject to the new non-primary residence property surcharge.”
It’s true that property records have long been public. Even so, aggregating the city’s most expensive properties into a single, searchable database that anyone can access strikes me as dangerous. There’s no shortage of bad actors who could exploit such a list for nefarious purposes, from political targeting to criminal activity.
Zohran Mamdani has released the names and addresses of everyone who owns a second home in New York City valued at $1 million or more. This doxxing of “the rich” provides burglars and kidnappers with the identities and locations of some 960,000 wealthy NYC visitors. It’s worth…

The New York Post editorial board called the database Mamdani’s “enemies of the people” list and asked why no one at City Hall stopped this “amateur-hour idiocy?”
Because the Democratic Socialist crew is obsessed with naming and shaming their “class enemies”: As national DSA co-chair Megan Romer explained on Fox News Sunday, “We will win by making conditions so intolerable to the ruling class that they would rather give in to our demands than live with the disturbance we cause.”

The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee added five candidates to its “Red to Blue” program on Tuesday, expanding its list of top recruits as Democrats work to reclaim the House majority in November.
The additions, spanning Arizona, Florida, Iowa, Minnesota, and Montana, bring the committee’s flagship program to 30 candidates in competitive districts across the country.
“In less than 100 days, Democrats will take back the House majority and it will be powered by our incredible candidates such as the five named to Red to Blue today,” DCCC Chairwoman Suzan DelBene (D-WA) said in a statement. “Whether in suburban, rural or redistricted seats, the American people have soured on Republicans’ broken promises and failure to lower costs. Voters are outraged by higher prices on everything and a war of choice spiraling out of control. They are eager for change and new leaders who will fight for them, not be a rubber stamp for Donald Trump.”
The “Red to Blue” program provides Democratic candidates in competitive races with financial support, strategic guidance, and additional campaign resources. Candidates qualify based on factors including fundraising, grassroots engagement, local support, and campaign organization.

Republicans are lashing out at New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani after he announced the city had taken a significant step forward in securing millions in taxes owed by the city’s ultrawealthy residents.
Mamdani said on Thursday that notices had been sent out informing owners of second homes worth $5 million or more that the pied-à-terre tax put in place by the state’s Democrats is coming soon.
Under current law, the properties are undertaxed, and plans are to apply the money that will be raised to help address New York’s budget deficit.
“The best city in the world deserves the best parks, libraries, and schools in the world. That’s only possible when we all pay our fair share,” Mamdani wrote.
An April estimate from the New York City comptroller analyzed the tax and found that it could provide as much as $510 million annually if fully implemented.
Trump revives old tropes as he pushes warnings of ‘communist menace’ | Donald Trump– www.theguardian.com

Perhaps above all else, Donald Trump is a child of the cold war.
Three months before the US president was born, Winston Churchill delivered a historic speech in Fulton, Missouri, that ushered in a generations-long existential struggle between western capitalism and Soviet communism.
Lamenting the spread of Soviet communism across eastern Europe following the allied victory in the second world war, Churchill – by then no longer British prime minister – warned his audience on 5 March 1946 that “an iron curtain has descended across the continent”.
It was the prelude to a nuclear-armed standoff between Washington and Moscow that triggered a hysteria-driven “red scare” in the US – leading to the execution of convicted spies and exemplified by witch-hunts instigated by the Republican senator Joe McCarthy, who claimed he had obtained lists of communist agents working in the state department and other key areas of American life.
The hunt for communists would have been a ubiquitous theme of Trump’s early childhood.

Appearing on Fox News Sunday, DSA co-chair Megan Romer was handed a list of the group’s positions and asked for a simple true-or-false answer on each one. She confirmed nearly all of them without qualification. The few she hedged, she hedged only on timing.
DSA Co-Chair Megan Romer confirms their platform includes:
– Abolishing the Senate, presidency, & Supreme Court
– Abolishing ICE, borders, & prisons
– Defunding the Pentagon
– Mass amnesty for illegals pic.twitter.com/rPQiT9HCXN— RNC Research (@RNCResearch) July 26, 2026
BREAM: So we’re going to put up on the screen a few of the things that are part of your platform, and I want to ask you, just give me sort of a true or false on these. Abolish the Senate?
ROMER: True.
BREAM: Okay. Replace the presidency and Supreme Court as we now know them?
ROMER: Yep.
BREAM: Abolish ICE?
ROMER: Absolutely.
BREAM: Abolish borders and give amnesty to anyone currently in the U.S. illegally?
ROMER: As a long-term plan, yep.
BREAM: Defund the Pentagon?
ROMER: Absolutely.
BREAM: Abolish prisons, at least in large part?
ROMER: Yeah, again, as part of a long-term program, yeah.
BREAM: Okay, so no prisons. Government or public ownership of most large corporations?
ROMER: Yeah, absolutely.
That was not a Republican’s description of the DSA platform. It came straight from the group’s co-chair.
