New York Representative Jerry “The Penguin” Nadler has announced he is not going to seek reelection in 2026.
78-year-old Nadler was going to face a significant primary threat from the far-left.
NEW YORK – “Watching the Biden thing really said something about the necessity for generational change in the party, and I think I want to respect that,” Mr. Nadler said, adding that a younger successor “can maybe do better, can maybe help us more.”
Rep. Jerry Nadler, was the former chair of the House Judiciary Committee who joined forces with Adam Schiff and spearheaded President Donald Trump’s impeachment effort.
Nadler and Schiff formed a joint House impeachment committee and then hired Mary McCord as the lead staff for the effort.
Mary McCord previously worked as DOJ-National Security Division head with Michael Atkinson as her office lawyer.
When McCord quit the DOJ and went to work for Schiff and Nadler, Atkinson was ¹moved to Intelligence Community Inspector General (ICIG).
As the ICIG, Michael Atkinson then changed the rules for whistleblowers within the CIA permitting a false assertion by Eric Ciaramella, who subsequently told a fictional story presented by Alexander Vindman. The fake “Ukraine Impeachment” effort stemmed from this political scheme.
Vindman lied, Eric Ciaramella advanced the lie to ICIG Michael Atkinson who then spun the ²false allegation back to his colleague Mary McCord. That’s the origin of the fraud behind the first impeachment effort.
¹♦ Who told President Trump to appoint Michael Atkinson as ICIG?
The appointment of Michael Atkinson was not a mistake. The impeachment was pre-planned.
Find the person who put his name in front of President Trump, and you find one of the internal operatives within the Trump administration specifically working to hurt President Trump in his first term. Is that person around in term #2?
²♦ Where is Michael Atkinson’s transcript?
ICIG Michael Atkinson testified to the joint House subcommittee on impeachment about why he changed the rules for CIA whistleblowers. Atkinson testified about his activity to the Schiff/Nadler committee, IN FRONT OF MARY McCORD.
Adam Schiff promptly classified and sealed the Atkinson deposition transcript in an attempt to forever bury it. The equity stakeholders are: (1) the House of Representatives, and (2) the CIA.
NEEDED ACTION – House Speaker Mike Johnson should be able to find that Atkinson transcript, declassify and make it public. However, the CIA is likely also the equity stakeholder. So, give it to Director John Ratcliffe who then declassifies it and gives it to DNI Tulsi Gabbard for release.
He is probably ill. The doctor gave him the long face.
Seems to be lot of that suddenly going on.
There have been a lot of people dying of “suddenly”.
Sen Durbin looking like he’s a few steps from the Gates. A lot much more older than him. Nadler is so right when he speaks of “The Biden Thing”. It’s real and getting worse every day as AOC, Crockett and Mamdani get all the news time while the geezers sleep! If there was a GOP any better, they would be on a push to support POTUS Trump, but all I hear is Crickets!
Much too sick to get a subpoena and be able to answer questions coherently.
Unexpectedly will get you every time……….
Jerry Nadler has been in poor health for many years. Video of Nadler passing out during a DiBlasio meeting:
Nadler’s retirement is long overdue. Surprised he didn’t retire years ago.
He couldn’t give up the excessive “extra retirement” incentives from his 10% cut of every spending bill ALL congressmen/senators receive when they pass it for approval. His health/guilt must finally be telling him that he will not be around much longer in PDJT 2nd go around as the democratic party burns to the ground.
Couldn’t give up the free doughnuts in the staff room.
When one craps his pants in public, it’s time to walk away.
Albeit very slowly & carefully. His waddling away from the lectern with a full pant-load will be his lasting memory to all Americans.
Never gets old!
Holy Crap!!! I thought that was a meme joke but it really DID happen! OMG!!!
How embarrassing and humiliating. Couldn’t happen to a fatter…errr… I mean more deserving guy.
His aides should have a pair of cords readily available to tie up his pantlegs at the ankles! Problem solved!
Maybe waddle away very slowly.
All roads lead to McCord it seems.
That guy still needs a haircut.
There is an Interstate highway leading to Fiona Hill’s doorstep.
There was a entire (get Trump) network in the first administration and Fiona Hill is to the IC what McCord was to Lawfare. Find out who ran the spies and you will have your answers.
She’s a dirty globalist of the first order.
There are still roads that lead to Langley……
So says Sundance.
All the bad actors in the above photos were not acting alone on their own behalf. They were following instructions from a central command and reading the script they were given. Yes I’m a conspiracy theorist and don’t play pretend games.
Someday someone will get the McCord info to the appropriate person or persons.
How I’d love to see that evil witch McCord behind bars for the rest of het life!
Good post, Sundance! Thank you!
Great summary SD,
paging Laura Loomer!
Loomer wishes she made these connections.. Paging some-damn-body that can secure an investigation and conviction!
Yeah, agree, less yapping and more action is needed.
We’re not going to tweet our way out of a war upon us.
We all read these great accounts by Sundance and then we say nothing will ever happen to anyone. I am totally lost why PODJT stands behind BLONDIE.
It’s because of Susie Wiles! Get rid of Wiles thus get rid of the cabinet embeds.
The Godfather said: Michael, the one who asks for the meeting of the families is responsible for killing Sonny (Trump in this story).
“It’s just business – nothing personal.”
“It’s just business” has become very personal for every American, whether they know it or not.
It will be a long time before the stink of his time in politics, and the damage done, is diminished to insignificance!
‘It’s not just like a guy who didn’t take a shower. I don’t know if it’s surgery or a colostomy bag, but it’s bad…’

September 2…… Arrests to date by the Bondo Casho Team…….0.
Sundance, you are so smart!!
He has the ability to see around corners.
Those pictures bring back the nightmare we daily lived through. By the grace of God, President Trump didn’t end up in jail. Look what’s happening to Bolsonaro.
Sundance, do you lnow or strongly suspect who put Atkinsons name forward?
“Sources And Methods”?
Mary McCord previously worked as DOJ-National Security Division head with Michael Atkinson as her office lawyer.
When Atkinson left DOJ to become ICIG, Jeff Sessions was AG and John Kelly was White House Chief of Staff. McCord could have recommended Atkinson to either of them.
I don’t know when Atkinson was actually nominated (assumed ICIG job May 17, 2018) but that was the time frame when Mike Pompeo was leaving CIA for State and Gina Haspel was coming in at CIA. Incoming Haspel probably doesn’t have a say in who gets to be ICIG, but outgoing Pompeo may have had some input.
Mick was in there too. Running around like a poison pill F’ing up all sorts of situations. My money is on Jeff with a lot of assisting from your other suspects.
There is a tie-in to the deep deception and insurgency stemming from obama and the Russia election influencing scandal.
All roads lead to obama.
But obama did not appear from thin air, he was a product of DeepSwampState grooming. The same grooming will attempt to replace Nadler with some other goon. What can be done to reveal the machinery?
“The Penguin”…..I like that.
However, for years, I’ve referred to him as “Jerrold the Hut”; cousin being “JB (Pritzker) the Hut” and their grandfather, Jabba.
Poor penguins.
What could be more insulting?
PANTS
to penguins…
Penguins the world over resent the comparison.
Time was he was Jerry the Waddler.
What did Rush call him ?
Agreed.
So who died and left Marty McCord and his Adams apple in charge ?? He should be charged with high treason and face a firing squad….as for Nads Nadler ??
NEW YORK – “Watching the Biden thing really said something about the necessity for generational change in the party, and I think I want to respect that,” Mr. Nadler said, adding that a younger successor “can maybe do better, can maybe help us more.”
Almost anyone with a pulse can do a better job than Nads….
Better job for whom?
Certainly not for his constituents who have inexplicably kept him where he has been for gosh knows how many ever years. Nadler has always been for Nadler and the Communist Dems. To that end, I’d say his traitorous service has been exemplary.
Exactly. Nadler and those like him have successfully service their evil ways and evil people. May he reap full and final consequences.
Good morning Betsy..before full disclosure background of this kind of beauties on TV screen and MSM.. blue states will sent this kind of ppl as nasty penguin..to CONgre$$….saaad
Just back, sejmon… Having experienced all the worst a Democrat like Nadler and his humanity hating cohorts can level on the voters, putting an “X” by anyone with a “D” by his or her name is still paramount. I’ve known some.
Some people, or in this case many, simply cannot connect dots.
Yes my friend. Sad…very.
Don’t forget vote manipulation keeping all these trolls in office! Clean voter roles
Successful politician for sure….He used his power with art.
I don’t like how he did it, but he did it well, and for a long time.
Sorry dear taspok…but UGH.
They will just put some 30+ unit in his place with no world experience and pro Palestine, BLM socialist. They will have the D sign in NY.
Perhaps Jon Ossoff has a cousin.
Nadler gave a BS reason for retiring.
The usual retirement strategy for blue city base Democrat institutional officeholders is to die in office, and bequeath the seat like part of their Estate. See, e.g. Dianne Feinstein, Nancy Pelosi, John Lewis, Elijah Cummings, etc.
The real reason Nadler is stepping off the stage is that NYC has shifted even to the left of him, and he is unlikely to survive a radical far-left challenger in the next cycle.
The same with crying Chucky.
That doomed city is now falling into a full Communist abyss. Comrade de Blasio was just a warmup act.
Likely so.
He’s Jewish? NYC is Muslim now.
for years and years nasty nadler said otherwise….
Remember when the impeachment process made it virtually illegal to print the name of “Ciaramella”? Naming that lowlife could get you banned on FB. That’s how far up the 🫏 of social media the FBI had gotten.
That was one of the rule changes by Atkinson: allowing for an anonymous whistleblower. My moonbat neighbor and I argued and he believed PDJT would have the whistleblower ‘offed’.
What I told the neighbor was the whistleblower wasn’t even on the call, that’s why they tried to keep him anonymous.
Btw, Atkinson also accepted a whistleblower complaint from a non-participant of the perfect phone call. Why? Because Vindman didn’t have the balls or conviction to ‘get’ PDJT.
WE destroy your reputation, your life, with false narratives, and actors assuming a role.
It’s top secret.

“No one may question OUR power.”
👺🔥👺🔥👺🔥👺🔥
Yes, I want them held accountable.

More importantly, I want the IC diminished, gutted.
😱😱😱😱😱😱😱😱
A New Narrative:
“The Incredible Shrinking Blob”
💩
May 17, 2018.
That was when Atkinson was appointed ICIG.
July 25, 2019
Trump’s phone call that Vindman lied about.
Atkinson had more than a year to prepare.
Besides preparing for a future impeachment, what was he supposed to cover up in the IC?
Recall LTC Vindman back to active duty and Courts Martial his arse!
Nope. Uniforms don’t fit and there ain’t a Short & Wide section.

All-time classic, thanks!
Poster boy for the democrats. Publish it far and wide. The party of disgusting creeps.
He’s always been a miserable slug who should be shipped to GITMO for his treasonous acts.
maybe he choose rather retirement rather than face jai…….
Wasn’t it he who made a famous sprint to the microphone at one point?
I recall everyone’s astonishment that he could move that quickly.
The damaging part of his sprint was the expelled gas trail he left behind during the sprint that left everyone gasping for fresh air.
Oh yeah, definitely remember that! It was during the impeachment trial in the Senate where a pro-Trump speaker was getting ready to say something at the mike and Nadler tried to get there first and lost the race! That was funny.
Nadler got to the podium to deliver the closing argument that Schiff had planned to give. This was to be Schiff’s moment in the spotlight.
But Nadler actually waddled too fast for Schiff. Remember Schiff hissing, “Jerry! Jerry!” to try to stop Nadler?
“Jerry. Jerry! You don’t have to do this!”
This is all part of “swamp draining”. Some leave on their own and some do not. What MAGA wants is accountability. I thought there would be some by now.
There is far more to it and I have no idea. There is obviously much more to it than just being a crook. At this point I see it as the United States having a crooked government run by crooks and especially judges, To me, it looks like crooked Judges run the Country….not the President and not the elected officials.
It would seem that Putin found out what he wanted to know and has made his decision accordingly.
Yes, world events hang on the politics of our humble little country.
Judges are lawyers first. Therein lies the problem.
Shakespeare nailed it.
NYC is lurching to the extreme left now. The mentally ill white liberal women there are steering the political bus right over the cliff. Like turkeys advocating for Thanksgiving.
This old school Congresscriminal, as corrupt and as dirty as he is, is not going to survive this coming tsunami of Socialism and extreme cultural marxism. He’s not extreme enough.
And he knows it.
He helped salt the ground there for this coming nightmare. He is in part responsible for it. And he will ironically look tame and nostalgic compared to what is likely to follow soon.
Batman’s worst Gotham, come to life.
“Like turkeys advocating for Thanksgiving.”
Apt descriptive of all the good little communists who say it just hasn’t been done right yet. One wonders how many useful idiot dims realize what they are really advocating for?
Reading is good especially….and wht the actors therein actually said.
Useful idiots indeed.
New York’s taxation drove away the productive. New York’s crime drove away the normals. New York’s one party dominance drove away the conservatives. What’s been left behind is the mentally ill, the criminals, the dependency class, the desperate and the social workers. This same pattern is repeating in all blue cities. Portland Oregon is an example of its spread.
What’s left in the blue toilet bowls is the promise for a communist utopia, whether it be marxist or islamist. The 1990’s democrat has no place in the devolved democrat party and like rats on a sinking ship, they are abandoning it. Nadler is too recognizable and can not swim to another ship, we must be aware and wary of the rats that can swim and not let them aboard ours.
Victoria, and Vancouver British Columbia two truly beautiful cities are well on their way.
Rampant property crime and drug abuse have lead the way.
I bet that belt holding up Nadler’s pants is taller than Nadler if you held it up next to him….
I saw the headline and just assumed Sundance was referring to someone else. Dang, I got excited!
How many remember the audio someone captured in an interview with him while eating ?
Just look at this man
proof that, yes, sometimes you can read a book by its cover
Another expendable asset. Jerry was made an offer he couldn’t refuse.
Who pushed the appointment of Vindman’s boss on the NSC, Fiona Hill to the National Security Counsel (NSC) in 2017?
Hill was an associate of Igor Danchenko who introduced Christopher Steele to Danchenko setting up the Russia Steele Dossier.
Hill played a huge part in both the first impeachment effort, the second impeachment effort and the J6 false coup to wall up a shaky stolen election.
Hill’s post NSC endeavors may point to her true allegiances – “Hill was appointed a Defence Advisor to HMG following the 2024 UK elections. and is one of three external reviewers leading its Strategic Defence Review, with General Sir Richard Barrons and Lord Robertson of Port Ellen.”
Fiona Hill received US citizenship in 2002 but kept her United Kingdom citizenship, a dual citizen. Fiona Hill reeks of an Intelligence operative who moled her way into the very highest levels of the US and now the UK governments. Agent or double agent for whom would be the real question to ask. Soros, MI6, CIA or even Ukraine or Russia could be pulling her strings but my money would be on MI6.
Who pushed this Fiona Hill appointment in 2017 to President Trump? This waspish harpy stung the President multiple times and deserves exposure and investigation. The only offices that can truly investigate Hill would be the ODNI/CIA.
Corollary question would be who pushed the useful clown John Bolton as the NSC upon President Trump allowing people like Hill, Ciaramella and Vindman working with Atkinson to lie and set up an impeachment? Bolton was their boss and you’ll probably never find an easier mark for the mushroom treatment of keeping him in the dark and feeding him BS.
Look for the ones you can’t criticize or name.
Very good points, all of them, SD!
But why the urgency now? And how come because of a Penguin retirement?
These questions should have, and have been asked for the entire time since the 1:st impeachment.
And even louder since Schiff sealed Atkinson’s testimony …
Also: Who told Chief Justice Roberts to keep the name ‘Eric Ciaramella’ out of the senate impeachment proceedings?
because there is a certain reality that exists that you wait for a moment of maximum potential before you move. I am not saying everything is about strategic release, but to notice in the bigger picture “WE” have many of the right pieces on the board now, AND with the exit of nadler as a bonus, we get to revive a long past due coup element, that takes the political media oxygen of nadler and consumes it with more than just a gentle nudge to our Champion President Trump and TEAM TRUMP: NOW more than ever, go get em. as these people want to just stride out the door and pretend things didn’t happen…no sir, we are not going to allow these reprobates an enjoyable life. not on my watch.
God Bless America
🎯
Judge Boasberg is best buds with Roberts. Wasn’t he involved with Ciaramella’s trial and slap on the wrist?
That was Kevin Clinesmith… convicted of altering email.
Jerry’s belt is the hardest worker in Washington!
It’s also the longest in Congress with extra expansion holes cut into it!!!! JMO
just another orc.
Dan Coats recommended but is no longer at gov.
that leaves mark Warner…who did in fact recommend “STRONGLY” and campaigned hard to get Atkinson nominated, although to what extent he actually put the name “BEFORE” President Trump, I really do not know.
As I recall in that entire saga it was the acting DNI Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire who refused. as refused to share the substance of the whistleblower’s complaint with Congress, as is normally required by law after the IG determines that the complaint is of “urgent concern.” The ODNI General Counsel, Jason Klitenic explained to congress that DOJ interpreted the law and rules to mean there is no legal basis that requires such disclosures (the whistleblower transcripts) and that is the reason why ODNI would not be cooperating with Congress over the matter.
that is about as far as my memory serves me.
as to who put the name BEFORE PT and is still in gov? I circle back to Warner, if for no other reason that I believe him to be more dangerous and treasonous than perhaps even clapper and Brennan. It was HIS JOB to make sure these goons were not conspiring to defraud the election and perform a coup. Instead, he was taking an active role in the damned things.
God Bless America
Thanks for bringing Coats back into the discussion.
Under the “Two hops” rule ( their creation, but we can use it) we can open the
door for a “very special” guest appearance. By Pence.
Coats and Pence were besties, remember? The Hoosier state’s finest (gag).
Anyone care to do the map where Coats/ Pence might fit into the equation?
Did Coats cross paths with Warner much during this time? Wouldn’t he have been
sure to relay messages between Warner and Pence?
This might be out there thinking, but I don’t usually believe in coincidences.
Aws shucks. The idiot is perfect for NY.
The Dems have to drop the communist manifesto.
When any ‘man’ hasn’t been able to look down and view his egg roll in half a century…
Those Characters in photo above- what a Sordid Group.
I keep hoping that all these politicians are “not seeking re-election” or retiring due to impending release of corruption charges.
One can dream, can’t one?
Grassley strongly opposed PDJT firing Atkinson. So did Cornyn, collins and Romney.
Is Collins made of Teflon? She sure seems to escape any scandals, while at the same time
being just down the street, close enough to see what’s going on.
While the door is being opened by Sundance, it might be a convenient time to see what
other nefarious deeds Collins has been able to slither out of over the years. She’s only of
use to the uniparty apparatus. If she ever had one, her soul got auctioned off a long time ago.
You tell them Sundance. I’m too angry.
From your lips to Tulsi Gabbard’s ears!
Dear Lord, may it be so.
If we had a DOJ and FBI that was half as good as it is reputed to be the sham impeachments should be part of the conspiracy chain of events that started with the fake Russia collusion. The United States government is beyond turd world not that elections are fixed and the Uniparty.
We’re rapidly losing New England because of MA and NY largely.
States like NH, VT and Maine, RI, we’re all pretty small states with scarcely more than a million people- VT has no where near that in fact, our states have been totally invaded by fleeing Massholes, New Yawkers and Californicators.
It doesn’t take a whole lot of far left Democrat activists with a whole lot of money to move in and wreck the whole town in a couple election cycles and here we are.
Yes, NY urgently needs another Elise Stefanik to win this state because quite honestly, it could save this entire coast over here.
I’m sorry for your plight.
They are like locusts. They utterly destroy one formerly prosperous area, then flee to another prosperous one to eat it to the ground.
They independently produce very little, and propagate and thrive only by consuming the accumulated granary of past hard-working generations. The consumption of prior creation and civilization gives the temporary illusion of growth and “progress”, spurring it on ever more rapaciously. All the golden geese industries that do not flee are quickly eaten, their bones scattered across the formerly productive sections of the city in large empty parcels.
And the muscle, heart and brains of the city are finally all consumed, and only the bare, unproductive stumps of what was once a thriving economic engine remain.
Then it’s Mad Max time. And the lead perpetrators of the crime are the first to leave.
They have done that in many larger eastern metropolises. Philadelphia, once the Athens of the mid-Atlantic, the cradle of the Nation, is now a total hellscape, a broken, dysfunctional city. Detroit East.
And all the progressives responsible for destroying it have now fled to its ring counties, overwhelming the longstanding native populations there.
They have learned absolutely nothing, and are systematically destroying them with the same horrific policies and ideology.
They are stupid, and lack all personal and political self awareness. Hardwired to a disposition by generations of intensive breeding and brainwashing, they see a community’s bounty and plenty as something to be distributed and consumed, not cultivated and furthered.
Just like locusts.
That’s what we are dealing with.
That is one terrific post!
One that I 100% concur with.
Our once jewel Vancouver B.C. is in a similar downward spiral. All predictable yet seemingly unavoidable ( human nature being what it is)
What is Gods plan?
The wise are praying, taking action and preparing.
Cheers!
A superb analogy.
Amen. The same thing is happening to the Mountain towns of the south. Asheville, Blue Ridge Ga,
Franklin, Nc.
Invaded by Northerners, or former northerners. In the case of Blue Ridge Ga, it’s what the locals
refer to as “Floridiots”. Floridians that moved up after the hurricanes. They were mostly former
New Yawkers that brought their wealth and voting patterns with them. Ran up home prices, taxes,
ran off local representation.
Maybe one positive of hurricane Helene is the yanks will leave and stay gone. They destroy peace and harmony wherever they go.
Maine, for generations, was solidly traditional, conservative, and (still) Republican.
It took two: Joe Brennan, conservative Democrat, and that knucklehead John Baldacci – intellectually “wanting” liberal Democrat …
[with a couple more mixed in between: Mr. Jock (Olympia) Snowe, RINOS both, and FAUX Independent Angus King,]
and that was the end of it for Maine.

Paul LaChance took a go at things, but without the legislature, which is now COMPLETELY LOST, it was a Tough Going.

fMaine … fakeMaine.
I saw years ago on a VT local channel a documentary about “how VT got rolled” by the left.
Essentially, decades ago the left realized the power of senators – that senators could block nearly anything via the filibuster. VT was historically republican, but with such a tiny population – only a few hundred thousand voting age citizens, it would not take much to shift the demographics to the left through migration.
The effort clearly worked in all respects, and VT became the cutting edge of progressive legislation, perhaps the most notable, if not the first was the gay marriage laws in the 90s.
This became the model for other states in New England, Oregon and Washington and is still used today.
Sundance putting this out for public consumption (1) keeps this in the public eye, (2) shows the roadmap to otherwise clueless politicians who, though wanting to do the right thing simply do not know how the dots are connected, and (3) prevents some TDS Deep State traitor from screaming “but it’s under investigation so we can’t comment or disclose”.
BURN IT ALL DOWN
With the Nad dropping out, I can’t wait to see what AOC/Mamdani love-child like hell spawn fills the gap. Because that is what is going to happen.
I still remember when the fat midget pig shat itself live on camera.
According to other congressional members, he doesn’t smell much better on days he makes it to the loo.
Can’t be prosecuted
Well said. Thank you.
Hey Baron,
If you read here, please ask your Dad this question and if that person is still within PT’s current orbit, you might want to point this out to him. There is far to much to do to be slowed down by traitors within.
“Find the person who put his name in front of President Trump, and you find one of the internal operatives within the Trump administration specifically working to hurt President Trump in his first term. Is that person around in term #2?”
When do the indictments begin? Where is Pam?
Are you speaking of Jerry Nadless?
He’s competion with Schiff in the race for least attractive member of Congress.
On the women’s side it’s Mad Maxine and purple haired Rosa DeLauro.
Dems have a knack for identifying with revolting representatives.
Do you remeber when you could not post the name “Ciaramella” on Facebook, or other online forums?
100% total censorship regardless of any other words in the post.
I remember people posting pictures to sound out the name. Chair Photo….. Letter A…. Pic of a Melon. LOL!
