Georgia Secretary Of State’s Office Hooks Up With Democrats To Disparage Election Integrity Grassroots
Despite repeated calls for tolerance of differing opinions, the speakers seemed to be 'singing from the same hymnal' in support of the status quo.Despite repeated calls for tolerance of differing opinions, the speakers seemed to be 'singing from the same hymnal' in support of the status quo.Polling reveals: Whatever Democrats are doing, it ain't working
A Marquette Law School poll published in May revealed that 63% of Americans hold an unfavorable view of the Democratic Party. Polling by the Economist and YouGov indicated that the disapproval rating for the party as a whole was 58.3% as of May 25.
It's clear that whatever Democrats tried last month didn't improve their public image.
An NBC News Decision Desk Poll released in mid-June revealed that 57% of voters held an unfavorable view of the Democratic Party. The party's radical messaging on illegal aliens and deportations certainly didn't help its cause, given the majority of Americans support President Donald Trump's handling of immigration and border security.
According to a new poll conducted by the Democratic super PAC Unite the Country and obtained by The Hill, enthusiasm within the party continues to fade — and disenchantment is spreading.
The poll, conducted in 21 battleground counties across 10 battleground states, found that Democrats' emphasis on fighting for democracy — empty signaling that clearly did not help them in November — is not doing the trick, and their ruinous immigration policies are further alienating voters.
Voters reportedly regard the Democratic Party as "out of touch," "woke," and "weak."

"This is the reality of the perception of us as a party, and until we accept that, it’s going to be hard to move forward," Democratic strategist Rodell Mollineau, senior adviser at the PAC, told The Hill. "There's a perception out there, outside of Democratic elites, and it's taken hold in not just the MAGA crowd but people that should be with us."
Mollineau added, "It's not about abandoning who we are. It's not about leaving people behind. We are a big tent party. But it is about prioritizing the messages and starting where the majority of the people are."
'The majority of Americans believe that the Republican Party best represents the interests of the working class and the poor.'
Rather than defending anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement rioters, flying to foreign nations to sip cocktails with MS-13 associates, and championing genital mutilations for children, Democrats may want to focus on matters that Americans actually care about.
“We do better when we first meet voters where they are and then bring them along on other issues," said Mollineau. "And nine times out of 10, what they really care about is whether or not they're going to be able to afford health care, whether or not their kids are going to be able to go to a good school … housing, living paycheck to paycheck."
Mollineau suggested that the party should start with "good economic appeal."
Months before he became the chairman of the Democratic National Committee, Ken Martin acknowledged in a New York Times interview last year that "the majority of Americans believe that the Republican Party best represents the interests of the working class and the poor. And that the Democratic Party represents the interests of the wealthy and the elite."
The party's continued focus on pet progressive issues that only the wealthy can afford to care about does not appear to have moved the needle on this perception.
RELATED: Stop pretending the Democrats are imploding
In addition to desiring a fresh perspective and different priorities, the Democratic super PAC found that voters simply want to see different leaders running the party.
A national Cygnal poll revealed last month that only 30% of voters held a favorable view of House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (N.Y.). While abysmal, that's still better than Sen. Chuck Schumer (N.Y.), whose favorability rating was 26%, according to a June 11-12 Harvard-Harris poll.
A Quinnipiac University survey released in June indicated that just 21% of all voters approved of the way Democrats in Congress were handling their jobs, and 70% signaled disapproval. When it came to Democratic voters in particular, 53% gave their party's congressional members a bad review.
An NPR/PBS News/Marist poll released last week similarly indicated Democrats' congressional approval ratings were under water with 27% approving and 58% disapproving of the jobs they are doing.
Steve Schale, CEO of Unite the Country, told The Hill, "They want us to have different leaders."

Stop pretending the Democrats are imploding
Democratic leaders aren’t inciting attacks on Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers out of pure hatred for Donald Trump and his administration. Their motives are strategic. Practical. By undermining immigration enforcement, they protect a pipeline of future Democratic voters — including violent criminals like the “family man from Maryland.”
Once these illegal aliens receive driver’s licenses, they’ll land on voter rolls. They already count in the census, inflating congressional representation in blue states teeming with illegal immigrants. Democrats didn’t bring these “newcomers” here just to deport them.
Republicans imagine that all or at least most Americans are on the same wavelength with them. But that may not be the case.
If activists now ambush and shoot ICE agents, Democratic leaders seem to treat that as a price worth paying to preserve their long-term electoral advantage. And they can count on the corporate left-wing media to help them.
The press operates as an extension of the Democratic Party, not just in the United States but across the Western world. CNN, NBC, and MSNBC broadcast the same spin you’ll hear on CBC, BBC, Deutsche Welle, and France 4. With this media backing, Democrats face little scrutiny — even when they tacitly abet violence against federal agents.
Right now, public support for deportations hovers around 50%, and it might be higher if the media didn’t stage-manage the narrative. Watch a few minutes of network television or skim the New York Times, and you’ll come away thinking border czar Tom Homan’s raids target preschoolers and migrant field hands.
Fox News insists the anti-Trump mobs are just fringe radicals. They’re not. A massive leftist electorate just nominated Zohran Mamdani to be the next mayor of New York City, and if the polls mean anything, he just might win in the fall. Other major cities are led by mayors only slightly less radical — Karen Bass in Los Angeles, Brandon Johnson in Chicago, Michelle Wu in Boston. When it comes to immigration, they’re just as hostile to ICE and just as gushingly sympathetic to illegal aliens as Mamdani.
The “people” voted for these multicultural, America-be-damned leftists. The fantasy that Democratic voters are victims of a hijacked party is infantile nonsense. A growing share of the American electorate has radicalized — including black voters, government employees, and especially college-educated white women, who dominate the culturally leftist bloc in my own Pennsylvania borough.
Despite years of street violence, riots, and inflammatory rhetoric, the Democrats haven’t collapsed. They still hold a slight edge in the generic congressional ballot. RealClearPolitics polling shows the GOP ahead by only seven points. The Democrats may have lost ground — but they’re far from finished.
RELATED: ‘The Suicide Squad’: How Democrats keep blowing themselves up
Let’s not forget: In the last presidential election, Democrats lost the popular vote by just two million votes, running a hapless candidate against an incumbent with enormous political energy. That’s how effective the Democratic machine remains — even in a lopsided matchup.
No one should mistake this for incompetence or insanity. Yes, the party boasts plenty of scatterbrained motor mouths such as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas), and Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.). But don’t confuse theatrics with disarray. Democratic leaders push grotesque policies — mutilating children with “gender-affirming” surgeries, putting men in women’s sports, promoting race-based discrimination — but voters haven’t punished them for it.
Republican observers tend to judge the other side by their own standards. They also imagine that all or at least most Americans are on the same wavelength with them. But that may not be the case. Democrats don’t even pretend to feel regret when ICE officers take a bullet or when anarchists torch city blocks. They know their base relishes in the havoc.
This is calculated politics. Democrats want to expand their base through mass migration and lawfare, not persuasion. That’s cold strategy, not insanity.
If Republicans want to win, they need to stop imagining their opponents are self-destructing lunatics. They aren’t. Democrats play to win. The GOP must prepare for a real fight — not fantasyland.
Citizen Volunteers Got 20,000 People Who Moved Out Of Pennsylvania Off The Voter Rolls
The effect of the letter-writing campaign is undeniable when compared to the number of removals at the request of the voter over the last 12 years.Why indoctrinated kids just handed the Big Apple to a radical Marxist
Zohran Mamdani didn’t win New York City’s Democratic mayoral primary because he is young and charismatic, empathizes with people’s everyday grievances, or ran a brilliant campaign. The real reason is much more terrifying.
The reason the Muslim Marxist from Queens crushed his opponents may be summarized in two words: indoctrinated kids. Simple math shows you what happened.
This isn’t going to remain isolated to New York City. This playbook is about to be replicated faster than E. coli in petri dishes in every city across America.
New York City counts roughly 5.1 million registered voters. Between 750,000 and 850,000 are between the ages of 18 and 29. Another 1.6 to 1.8 million fall between 30 and 49.
Together, those groups total about 2.5 million voters — half the city’s electorate. In other words, half of New York’s voting base consists of what I call “indoctrinated kids.”
Ten years ago, I had a recurring weekly segment on my show called “Campus Madness.” Every week, we told the grisly stories of conservative students facing awful discrimination on campus — simply because they were conservative: grades docked, free speech infringed, humiliation by professors, denied funding from the student body, and so on. The point of the segment was to expose the rampant abuse of conservatives on leftist college campuses.
But honestly, we missed the point. Sure, conservative students faced discrimination — and still do. That was unjust and remains a serious problem.
The greater threat came from students who arrived on campus either apolitical or mildly liberal. They didn’t face discrimination. They didn’t need to. They were the targets.
Their minds were open and their politics malleable. Four years later, they emerged not as moderates but as committed Marxists — true believers in a worldview shaped by relentless indoctrination. Their professors didn’t just challenge ideas. They hammered home an agenda: anti-American, anti-white, anti-God, anti-human.
RELATED: Voters loved the socialist slogans. Now comes the fine print.
Back then, people joked, “Wait till these silly Millennials get to the real world.” Nope. Those students brought their radicalism with them. Instead of waking up, they woke everything else. And the result is today’s “woke-ified” culture — one shaped more by the classroom than by common sense.
Returning to how this nutty Muslim Marxist just won the Democrat primary for mayor, New York City’s voting demographic explains it all.
Two and a half million of 5.1 million total registered voters are in the “indoctrinated kids” age bracket. One million of those 2.5 million are college graduates. That means 20% of voters in the city are the product of the Marxist indoctrination factories we call “colleges” and “universities.”
Only 11% of New York City voters of all ages are registered Republicans, so read the writing on the wall.
Zohran Mamdani isn't the Democrats’ nominee because voters didn’t understand his Marxism. The indoctrinated kids chose Mamdani because of his Marxism.
The indoctrinated kids are committed radical leftist ideologues — thanks to our colleges and universities that were subverted decades ago by communists who knew exactly what they were doing. They were playing the long game, knowing they were stealing the minds of whole generations of youth who one day — today — would be the deciding factor in our elections.
The scariest part is that this isn’t going to remain isolated to New York City. This playbook is about to be replicated faster than E. coli in a petri dish in every city across America.
It must be stopped. President Donald Trump must defund any college or university that indoctrinates youth in anti-American ideology — including private schools that accept federally subsidized student loans and research grants. Cut it all. They won’t survive a week without the federal government’s largesse. The Marxists are in it to win it. If we don’t use the authority we have while we’re in power, the United States of America will be lost.
If you don’t believe me, just listen to Mamdani speak for two minutes.
JD Vance rejects Democrats' narrative, names the 'real threat to democracy'
Democrats and elements of the liberal media have suggested ad nauseam that President Donald Trump, his supporters, and like-minded Republicans constitute threats to democracy.
After a Biden official's group got Trump temporarily removed in 2023 from the presidential primary ballot in Colorado, former President Joe Biden tweeted, "Trump poses many threats to our country: The right to choose, civil rights, voting rights, and America's standing in the world. But the greatest threat he poses is to our democracy."
Years after calling her political opponents "enemies of the state," Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) said in April 2024 that Trump is "a great threat to our democracy."
'It was a radical success.'
Less than a day after a Democratic donor who claimed "DEMOCRACY is on the ballot" in the 2024 election allegedly tried to assassinate Trump, New York magazine rushed to inform its readers that "Donald Trump is a threat to democracy, and saying so is not incitement."
It's clear that this mantra is little more than a political cudgel intended for those who threaten to diminish Democrats' hold on power. Nevertheless, its repetition has prompted some on the right to seriously reflect on that which actually threatens the American republic's democratic processes.
In his keynote speech at the Ohio Republican Party dinner in Lima, Ohio, on Tuesday, Vice President JD Vance made clear that the apparent effort by Democrats to import and then normalize new voter blocs rather than engage and help homegrown Americans — to seek out a new demos as opposed to serving the current demos — is the real threat.
The vice president stressed that illegal immigration is "the most important issue confronting this country" and "the most important issue that was destroying this country for over the past four years."
"If I had stood here in October of 2024, and you had told me that after 45 days of the Trump administration we would have illegal border crossings down between 95% and 99%, I would have said, 'Whoa, whoa, whoa. I believe the president is very serious about this, and I believe the president is very effective, but there is no way that we're going to have illegal border crossings down that much,'" said Vance. "I'm happy to report that one and a half months into the Trump administration, we had illegal border crossings down 99%. It was a radical success."
"I believe that saved the United States of America," continued Vance, "because we know exactly what the Democrats [would do] — not because we had to read their minds but because Democrats would go out and say that what they wanted to do with those 20, 25 million illegal aliens is give every single one of them the right to vote and turn them into permanent wards of the Democratic Party."
'Now, we have largely solved that problem.'
Democratic lawmakers have worked feverishly in recent years to give foreign nationals the right to vote.
Certain jurisdictions in California, Maryland, and Vermont allow noncitizens to vote in local elections. There are also indications that some noncitizens have been registered in Democratic enclaves to vote in federal elections — a troubling matter that the Trump administration is taking seriously.
The Department of Justice filed a lawsuit on Wednesday against the Orange County registrar of voters for refusing to provide the DOJ with records pertaining to the "removal of non-citizens from its voter registration list and for failing to maintain an accurate voter list in violation of the Help America Vote Act."
— (@)
Meanwhile, in the District of Columbia, noncitizens are allowed to vote in local elections so long as they were in the city for at least 30 days before the election. According to the Washington Post, of the over 500 foreign nationals who voted last year — including Ethiopians, Salvadorans, and Iranians — 310 registered as Democrat, 169 as independent, 28 as Republican, and 16 as Statehood Green.
Democrats evidently aspired to go far beyond local elections with their noncitizen voting push.
RELATED: Trump doesn’t threaten democracy — he threatens its ruling class
The Democratic National Convention's 2024 platform endorsed a mass amnesty plan that would have paved the way to citizenship for millions of illegal aliens.
The Maine Wire noted that the platform incorporated language from the U.S. Citizenship Act, an inert bill from Rep. Linda Sanchez (D-Calif.) that would change the word "alien" to "noncitizen" in the immigration code and allow illegal aliens to become "lawful prospective immigrants," thereby setting them on the path to legally voting in federal elections.
Even though Trump saw gains in each of the seven swing states in the 2024 election, giving voting rights to millions of yesteryear's illegal aliens could significantly alter America's political destiny.
"If we allowed that to happen, if we allowed the Democratic Party to import voters rather than persuade voters, that would have been the end of American democracy," said Vance. "You hear the American media say all the time that Donald Trump is a threat to democracy. The threat to democracy is Democrats importing voters rather than persuading their fellow citizens."
The vice president proceeded to provide his audience with some good news.
"Now, we have largely solved that problem," said Vance. "If you look, for the first time in 50 years — the first time in 50 years — we now have net negative illegal immigration."

New York City could sleepwalk its way into electing a socialist mayor, thanks to ranked-choice voting.Democrats can’t mock masculinity and expect men to vote for them
Democrats are making a full-court press to woo men back to the party, with the New York Times recently reporting that donors are considering a $20 million effort to connect with the more “privileged” sex. The plan apparently includes studying the “syntax, language, and content that gains attention and virality in [male] spaces.”
It’s good that the party finally realized that alienating half the electorate is an unwise political strategy. Kamala Harris lost the male vote to President Donald Trump in 2024 by 10 points. The president won 60% of the white male vote, along with 54% of the Hispanic male vote and 21% of the black male vote. Those results are unsustainable.
A party beholden to feminists who think traditional masculinity is toxic will never prioritize the needs of the average American male.
But I have news for donors that will save them from wasting time and money: A party can’t do meaningful outreach to people they resent.
That may sound like a harsh assessment of the left’s relationship to men, but it’s true. What’s also true is that the problems Democrats have with messaging to men are primarily ideological, not rhetorical. That’s because the modern Democratic Party has a broad coalition of voters who hate any expression of traditional masculinity. This includes both liberal and radical feminists, LGBTQ+ activists who want to change the definitions of “male” and “female” altogether, and self-flagellating male “allies” who feel duty-bound to rid themselves publicly of their “toxic masculinity.”
The party’s inability to reach men is a structural — not syntactical — problem.
Men in previous generations, including the white majority, had a home in the Democratic Party. At that time, Democrats campaigned on bread-and-butter issues, such as jobs and education. They still talk about those issues today, but they occupy a much different space within the left’s business model.
Issues like the economy, health care, and even race could be viewed as “expenses” Democrats are willing to pay in order to sell their preferred “products”: abortion, all things related to LGBTQ+ Pride, and climate change.
In fact, progressives are so invested in “transgender rights” that they are willing to throw women under the bus to do so. That’s why Sen. Chris Murphy (D-Conn.) said he would support boys who identify as girls competing against natal females in sports. Any man watching the left dump its commitment to second-wave feminism in favor of first-wave “theminism” would be a fool to think Democrats would be loyal to him.
RELATED: From feminism to ‘theminism’: Nancy Mace faces liberal fury in Congress
The modern left prioritizes “marginalized” identities more than anything, which makes straight white Christian males apex oppressors in the left’s intersectional “Hunger Games.” This warped worldview puts Democrats in a bind. They want to win back men, but at the same time, they don’t want to upset the coalition of “oppressed” groups who look to them for protection from the “orange menace” currently in the White House — especially since some of the men they’re courting voted for Trump in 2024.
No one on the left wants to be blamed for bringing in a new batch of men into the party whose land acknowledgments are some version of, “My ancestors were settlers, and I don’t apologize for the country they’ve built.”
The truth is, the party whose symbol is a donkey is only interested in male “mules” — men willing to leverage their male “privilege” on behalf of the feminists, abortionists, and Pride activists who hold all the sway on the modern left. That means a black Christian man who is solidly pro-life has no space in the modern Democratic Party, while a white male feminist wearing a shirt with the slogan “The future is female” is a useful ally.
Men can sense the resentment, and many won’t be swayed by effete influencers who binge Joe Rogan interviews and practice their “bro” lingo in the mirror. A political movement can’t spend decades telling men that their very nature is problematic and then act surprised when the people they’ve been chastising defect in large numbers.
The irony is that when these efforts fail to produce the results the party desires, progressive pundits will respond 95% of the time with the type of preachy scolding from the same bitter “cat ladies” who drove men away from the left in the first place.
This is why any attempts to win young men back to the left will ultimately fail without a major change in the party’s priorities. A party beholden to feminists who think traditional masculinity is toxic will never prioritize the needs of the average American male.
Former Clinton operative lashes out at CNN host for saying Democrats seen as 'slow' and slug-like: 'That is ridiculous'
A longtime ally of Hillary Clinton refused to address flailing support for the Democratic Party and told a CNN host he was being "ridiculous" for bringing up the results of a recent focus group.
U.S. Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.), co-chair for Clinton's 2008 presidential campaign, was interviewed by CNN's John Berman, who told the congresswoman that a liberal focus group compared Dems to "tortoises, slugs, or sloths." These labels were coupled with descriptors like "slow, plodding, [and] passive," while Republicans were seen as "apex predators" like lions or sharks.
'I'm focused on the humans I represent, not, you know, animal comparisons.'
Wasserman Schultz refused to accept the reality that Democrats are being labeled as weak by voters and blamed the source of the information instead: an article from the New York Times.
"John, I'm not focused on the animals that some New York Times reporter compares the political parties to. My constituents are human beings. And the human beings that I represent are facing devastating health care cuts."
As Berman stared blankly, Wasserman Schultz continued sidestepping the accusations and seemingly ignored the point.
"I'm focused on the humans I represent, not, you know, animal comparisons."
RELATED: David Hogg targets Pelosi, unwittingly deals Democrats more damage ahead of likely DNC ouster
Berman persisted, telling the congresswoman that it was "the voters who were making the comparison with animals," not the journalist.
Wasserman Schultz was not having it, though, and stayed on message.
"John, you said they were asked to compare the parties. So they were prompted to compare the parties to animals. That is ridiculous. I've watched a lot of focus groups, and I know that the people that I represent want me fighting for the humans, the families that I represent."
After praising Democrat policy and criticizing Republicans, the 58-year-old started directly attacking the president as a "dictator" who has employed racists.
"[Voters] don't want a lawless dictator of a president who hires anti-Semites and who then acts like he's trying to fight to protect the Jewish community," Wasserman Schultz cried.

Wasserman Schultz has bounced around as a House member from Florida over the last 20 years. She served in the 20th district from 2005 to 2013, the 23rd district from 2013 to 2023, and the 25th district from 2023 to the present.
After serving on Clinton's 2008 campaign, she was elected chair of the Democratic National Committee in 2011. She resigned in 2016, however, after the infamous John Podesta email leaks showed the DNC heavily favored Clinton over Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) in the Democratic primaries.
