Did AIPAC accidentally elect the next Squad member?



The most powerful pro-Israel lobby may have accidentally boosted a progressive rising star who has accused the Jewish state of committing genocide in Gaza.

The New Jersey Democrat primary is in dead heat between former Rep. Tom Malinowski and Analilia Mejia, who has secured the backing of prominent Democrats like Bernie Sanders and Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez. In the race to replace Mikie Sherrill, who was just elected to serve as New Jersey's governor, the American Israel Public Affairs Committee is once again putting its thumb on the scale.

'AIPAC has historically enjoyed a winning streak of ousting anti-Zionist Democrats.'

Malinowski criticized aid to Israel, prompting a multimillion-dollar ad campaign against the Democrat funded by AIPAC.

The campaign hammered Malinowski for his track record on immigration, attempting to frame the Democrat as a pro-Immigration and Customs Enforcement candidate who approved President Donald Trump's deportation funding in 2019.

AIPAC likely projected the ad targeting Malinowski would boost pro-Israel Democratic Lt. Gov. Tahesha Way in the overcrowded primary, but polls show they may have massively underestimated Mejia.

AIPAC has historically enjoyed a winning streak of ousting anti-Zionist Democrats, including Squad members like former Reps. Jamaal Bowman of New York and Cori Bush of Missouri.

This time around, the race remains too close to call, with the latest poll results putting Mejia at a razor-thin advantage of less than 1%.

New Jersey's 11th congressional districts used to be staunchly Republican but flipped to a deep-blue district in 2018, when Sherill defeated GOP candidate Jay Webber. Given the district's newly Democratic affiliation, a primary victory for Mejia would likely guarantee her a seat in the House of Representatives.

Dozens of 'morally bankrupt' Democrats vote against condemning Charlie Kirk's assassination



The House has passed a resolution honoring Charlie Kirk's legacy and condemning his horrific assassination. Although the resolution garnered bipartisan support, dozens of Democrats couldn't bring themselves to honor Kirk.

The resolution passed in a 310-58 vote, with 95 Democrats joining 210 Republicans to commemorate the conservative activist. That being said, 38 Democrats voted present, 22 didn't vote at all, and 58 voted against the resolution all together.

'The Democrat party is clearly so morally bankrupt that many of them have lost all sense of decency.'

Notably, the House unanimously passed a resolution condemning the assassination of Minnesota state Rep. Melissa Hortman, a Democratic-Farmer-Labor Party member who was brutally gunned down in her home in June.

Despite unifying behind their fellow Democrats like Hortman, House progressives like Reps. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Ilhan Omar of Minnesota, and Rashida Tlaib of Michigan refused to formally condemn Kirk's assassination.

Although similar resolutions have been passed unanimously in the Senate, House Republicans have pointed fingers at the "morally bankrupt" Democrats who refuse to condemn Kirk's murder.

"Their silence spoke volumes," Republican Rep. Claudia Tenney of New York said in a post on X. "Americans won’t forget."

"The Democrat party is clearly so morally bankrupt that many of them have lost all sense of decency," Majority Whip Tom Emmer of Minnesota said in a post on X. "Absolutely shameful."

Ilhan Omar Said It's 'Categorically False' To Call Her a Millionaire. Her Net Worth Just Reached Up to $30 Million, an Increase of at Least 3,500 Percent in One Year.

Rep. Ilhan Omar’s personal fortune exploded to upwards of $30 million in 2024, the Minnesota Democrat disclosed just months after telling the press it is "ridiculous" and "categorically false" to say she is worth millions of dollars.

The Squad Brings Back One Of Democrats’ Worst Lines Ever

Her fellow girlbosses have adopted a more measured tone

Jamaal Bowman Said He Had 'Millions' in Donations Lined Up for His PAC. It's Actually in Debt, Records Show.

It’s a PAC of lies. Former congressman Jamaal Bowman left Congress vowing he had received commitments "in the millions" for his new Built to Win PAC, but his most recent federal financial disclosures show him well short of that effort.

‘The Suicide Squad’: How Democrats keep blowing themselves up



Donald Trump, now in his second term, has executed a political masterstroke — cornering Democrats into the unpopular side of nearly every 80/20 issue. From transgender athletes in women’s sports and the DOGE to the airstrike on Iran’s nuclear sites, he’s boxed them in. But Trump isn’t the Democrats’ biggest threat. Their worst enemy is themselves — and the radical candidates they continue to put forward.

The truth is that the left has always flirted with the absurd. Leftists rant that the rich must “pay their fair share,” but can’t define what “fair” means. They champion equity over equality and preach that government handouts — not markets — will lift the poor and working class. This worldview teeters between naivete and madness.

The Democratic Party isn’t just drifting — it’s accelerating toward the cliff. And no one pushed the Democrats. They drove themselves.

Then came 2018, when “the Squad” stormed Congress and dragged the party from the edge of absurdity into full-blown lunacy.

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez — raised in a comfortable New York suburb — rebranded herself as “Alex from the block” in the Bronx. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota dismissed 9/11 as “some people did something” and still won a seat in Congress. Rashida Tlaib of Michigan was censured — by both parties — for chanting “from the river to the sea” after Hamas massacred Jews on Oct. 7, 2023. In 2020, Jamaal Bowman of New York joined their ranks and was later caught on video pulling a Capitol fire alarm to delay a budget vote. His excuse? He thought it would “unlock a door.”

Some Squad members have lost re-election bids, but the core group marches on, peddling the Green New Deal, defunding police, and attending Fighting Oligarchy rallies via private jet.

Meanwhile, Soros-backed prosecutors decriminalize shoplifting, eliminate cash bail, and release repeat offenders. These are not policy missteps — they are self-inflicted wounds. And Republicans couldn’t ask for better material.

Enter Zohran Mamdani — the 33-year-old Democratic Socialist running for New York City mayor. His platform makes Bernie Sanders look centrist.

Mamdani wants to defund police, make New York a sanctuary city, and jack up the minimum wage to $30 an hour. He calls for rent freezes, free buses, and city-run grocery stores — as if the Soviet model didn’t already prove that government-run markets lead to scarcity and dysfunction.

Even more alarming is his plan to “shift the tax burden” from homeowners in the outer boroughs to “richer and whiter neighborhoods.” That’s not policy — that’s race-based redistribution.

And his foreign policy? Mamdani wants to “globalize the intifada.” That’s a genocidal rallying cry, and New York’s Jewish community should treat it like the five-alarm fire it is.

So can the Democrats still correct course? Can the party of JFK and FDR find its footing again?

One glimmer of sanity remains: Sen. John Fetterman of Pennsylvania. Despite his hoodie-and-shorts aesthetic, to say nothing of the stroke that nearly killed him in 2022, he has emerged as a lonely voice of reason. He has called out the party’s excesses. But will anyone listen? Or will the Democrats toss him aside for failing the purity test?

The Democratic Party isn’t just drifting — it’s accelerating toward the cliff. And no one pushed the Democrats. They drove themselves.
