Even halfway across the world I get ads on YouTube for Ben McAdams.
His only strategy? “I’m against Trump.”
Utah had better choose wisely.
Unfortunately McAdams is the most moderate Dem running. Utah’s State Court ordered redistricting gave one seat back to the Dems. If the Socialist beats McAdams, the GOP has a chance.
“I’m against Trump” is the leading campaign line for almost all democrats here in California.
That’s all they have.
They certainly can’t run on their accomplishments.
Hey guys, it’s WORKING…
Just keep doing the GOOD, that’s what’s working, Melania announced her purpose in life today, the foster child system, which needs complete overhaul, but here’s t he key, it goes through the Governor of each state, so now we sit back and see which dimwits turn it down….the proof is only a minute away for the miserable evil Democrats, they are a horror movie.
Because communists don’t want Christians to foster children.
I’m in Utah I’ll take Ben over the other two any day a couple of socialists.
ditto…
with utah’s current bendover gov, a closet liberal, this state has become a cesspool of moral rot, perversion and staggering corruption. And with this gov handing out driver licenses to illegal aliens like candy, it’s flooded with illegal freeloaders looking for a sanctuary red state + free, free, free everything. An ultra liberal salt lake mayor calling ICE egregiously offensive only exacerbates the explosion of illegal alien freeloaders in this once majestic state…
God save our Republic
maloy is the most dangerous… she ran on being conservative and is anything but. Liberty score is <50, she was an inactive voter when she went to file her candidacy and got a free pass, voted for kill switch in vehicles, voted to protect abortions, voted to protect pesticide companies from being sued by citizens harmed by their chemicals.
a RINO pretending to be MAGA…
NYC Mayor Mandani has a “crew” of socialist he is trying to get elected.
See what they (socialist/commies/anti-capitalist do they run the money people out, high taxes, then the sheeple left go for anything like buffoons.
At least 2 out of 3 of his commies already won, that is amazing. Perfect for NYC the rotten apple 🍎 I live in a neighboring state to NY and have to put up with the commercials. I learned that all the commies are going to “stand up to Trump” 😂
It’s the socialist/commie fever-dream to take over. At least they TELL you what they are. Abigail Scamburger ran as a moderate, like many of them do, then showed her true intents immediately after election. My prediction is that the socialist will massively lose big corporations as tax base, install overwhelmingly popular commie programs until their cities are a hell scape. The voters will rue the day they installed these lunatics. Then, as always, they’ll beg the government for all of our hard-earned tax dollars to bail them out. LUNACY.
In 1917 the socialist party of America first set sight on getting a foothold in America. By 1919 the began to get that foothold firmly established. They’ve been doing everything within their power to accomplish that dream. Unfortunately, they’re doing a good job of coming closer and closer to fooling enough people that their dreams are becoming a reality.
I’m a 71 yo Navy brat, mother and father both were Naval officers. I’ve been warned for as long as I can remember that they were here and working on that. Even in Catholic grade school in the early’60s the nuns taught us the communist were here and using every means to take over our country and we were to be very concerned about it.
I forgot to mention, the socialist party of America was the communist party when the facade was removed.
“The goal of socialism is communism,” Vladimir Lenin
The people who voted for the socialist-communists need to learn a history lesson they were never taught. Problem is that some of these primaries in NY will end up sending the commies to Congress: they will be legislating we the people, folks. It’s not only about NY; it’s about the entire country.
That’s the root of the problem. No one’s been teaching that since the 70’s.
We now have generations worth of people fully indoctrinated by the public school system for 40 years to Hate America.
The fruits of these decades-long endeavors are now in full bloom, ripe for the picking.
It’s only going to get worse in the years ahead.
A lot worse.
Began in England with the Fabians and spread throughout the globe – India was heavily infected, of course Canada. Check out the “Fabian Window” designed by one of the founders, George Bernard Shaw. Its a stained glass window depicting men working a bellows to feed the flame of change, the globe resting upon an anvil as two men hammer it into submission. The founders are also depicted, wearing Elizabethan type clothing, lined up at the bottom of of the piece, one of whom is Emily Pankhurst (the founder and primary leader of the militant suffragette movement in England). Their original logo/coat of arms depicted a wolf wearing a sheepskin – but at one point the cult changed it to something less blatant.
Fabians started the London School of Economics (Tony Blair is an avowed Fabian). And look at the dire straights England is in today.
I think we are there. The billionaires never give money directly to the people. It is always filtered through layers and everyone takes their cut for a handlers fee. When it finally gets down where the rubber meets the road, they want to pay people $5/hour and tell you you’re lucky to have 26 hours a week. Look how many jobs we created!
Attempting to gaslight the plebs that they are going up when they are actually on the down escalator.
I think it started in the 1880’s, well, the law anyway. I think dumo rats have always cheated at everything they do.
They are the racists who hate God.
Watch for the NY Stock Exchange to make the move! Agree, most Corps will either move or Incorporate in another state, taking tax $$$ from NY.
I worked in NYC for a big part of my early years, circa 1960s – 1970s. What a place to be (especially if you were single)!!
Wow! I’ll bet. Just watching the Mad Men series was a kick.
Also think you’re right the NYSE high tails it out. What a FUBAR.
His picks went 3 for 3 socialist now controls the whole national Democrat party (according to CNN) 😂
100% DSA.
100% SI master plan. They have a history and a formal competing government already formed. They’ve had it operating under the radar for decades. The US red-union dominated media will not report on it. They refuse to.
Look it up: https://www.socialistinternational.org/
Welcome to a world-wide movement and network of corporations, organizations and institutions formed over 100 years ago. How does it get its money? Bleeding foreign aid by the billions from infiltrated governments and institutions? By fiat of 5th Column treachery? Domestic politicians might get their cut but they don’t get to steal it all. There are bigger mouths to feed.
Between Hoechild and Mamdani it looks like the SI just ate New York by proxy.
The SI and their Fabian masters did it to London and they are doing it here as fast as they can.
Our Enemies. Foreign becomes domestic.
The Communist Strategy is win one election at a time. Cheat and make that city or state Communist forever.
See California. They are destroying it and still keep winning elections. The same for Portland and Oregon, Seattle and Washington, Chicago and Illinois, NYC and NY. And for good measure they throw in the Islamists.
And “the other” gender, neither male nor female.
Mamdani. Idi Amin with a smiley face. Bootydgige. Bassura. Same damn cartoon smile.
They all grin like they’ve put opium in their pancake syrup.
https://www.socialistinternational.org/our-meetings/congresses/
That smile reminds me of a mule eating briars
He’s always looked like he’d fit right in with the IRGC ghouls.
City Bus Plan that Inspired Mamdani’s Fare-Free Scheme Runs out of Money, Starts Charging Riders Again
I wonder how long before the fares will increase. Madmani has to get more money to reach all the dream of the socialist party
He will have Hochul steal more from upstate (anywhere outside of NYC and Westchester) to give to him. She did it once and will do it again.
Wait! What??? They ran out of other people’s money????
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Gee… I haven’t see this story on WAPOO, CNN, M-SNOW, etc…
….Almost like they planned it that way….🤔
Now that the incumbent Dem Dan Goldman lost, maybe he’ll vote with MAGA to give a big Mickey Mouse single finger salute to the Socialist Dem that beat him. … Nah, probably not.
Mamdani’s pick, Valdez, has won District 7 primary, too.
Yep.
Valdez and Lander both won.
Not a good trend.
Is good for the GOP nationally imho
Dan Goldman? Good riddance!!!!
My father in law, a an electrical engineer in post WWIi, had a descriptive way of defining political figures who were untrustworthy, or just plain no good.
He’d simply say in his quiet observant way, “His eyes are too close together.”
Not scientific, but he was never wrong as it turned out.
George Bush and Dan Goldman, to name only two…
Uh huh.
My own Dad had a way of sifting through the “presentation ” even when it was Walter Cronkite or Roger Mudd.
Huntley and Brinkley for our house. I wanted to watch I Love Lucy.
I’ll keep my wide eyes open for that and politicians
so you prefer a socialist in our House of Congress?
How many Congressmen are not actually socialists when it comes down to it?
One cohort uses power to gain wealth, and the other wealth to gain power. Between both, they are screwing everyone else for the benefit of small minorities.
Only difference is some of them will take us to the end state of totalitarianism slower than the others would barring a sprinkling of MAGA aligned candidates contesting the votes of the sewer.
I am with you R F. I always liken it to a train running toward the Socialism Station. You either are in the front car and arrive there early or near the caboose and it takes a bit longer.
Goldman’s loss is just an” even” tradeoff.
Yep.
Absolutely.
One can dream tho, don’t sell the idea short. Look how the rinos dropped their pretences after they lost in the most recent election. Now, its all about how they can hurt us, under the guise of screwing Trump.
I find it exceedingly difficult to be excited about elections of any sort, since the 2020 steal has not been exposed and rectified. If they want to rig an election, they will, unless they are stopped.
Has been going on a lot longer than 2020 too
Accurate considering the average age of Congress critters has been creeping steadily upwards for many years alongside incumbency rates, thanks to the 17th Amendment.
Nevermind the consistently narrow majorities that are statistically improbable in thwarting populist agendas regularly.
Yes but before 2020 we were mostly ignorant of the actual methods and procedures the cheaters were using.
2020 was so brashly overt it became the bright red flare that alerted Americans to the breadth and magnitude of the corruption in elections.
Post 2020 there’s zero excuse to not go after the cheaters with the full force of the law.
But the Republican Party leaders have been squeamish and full of excuses. It’s disgusting and unacceptable.
They’re not squeamish. For the right price, they’re complicit.
Squeamish about doing the right thing despite deepstate coercive pressure.
What you’re describing is pure corruption. That’s easy for them (no guts required) as long as they can keep their crimes concealed away from the public’s eyes.
I hope for positive results for my friend Seneca in his local outcomes.
In the 12th District, Jack Kennedy Schlossberg is a distant third.
As Lloyd Benson would say, he’s no Jack Kennedy
12th District won by Micah Lasher, establishment Dem.
He is a disgusting person.
Moron Calmdownie may go 3 for 3 in NYC and a CNN talking head claims that he just took over the leadership of the whole Democrat Party 😂 please let him be correct.
I am speechless…will just leave it at that…
https://www.foxnews.com/politics/aoc-cruises-primary-victory-speculation-swirls-about-political-future
It really is “in your face” isn’t it?
We can put idiots and imbeciles, ultra corrupt stinkers in office and you will like it or else….
For the democrats there is NO moderate or traditional vs socialist-fascist.
They are all the same.
Vote 100% lock step in congress.
100% against US in the media.
100% for open borders.
100% for DEI and Woke and Green BS
100% for anything immoral.
… and more
The only difference is that the “socialist: democrats are open about their political affiliation while the the “other” democrats lie and never acknowledge their true beliefs.
It matters not which version wins the democrat primaries.
Apparently Trump approved of both SC’s gubernatorial candidates. Pam Evette took a beating from Alan Wilson likely because Ted Cruz was here stumping for him. 40 of 46 counties reporting.
Teddy boy is only hoping to position him for 2028, but JD is head and shoulders above him and others with stars in their eyes!!!
Another One! Mamdani-Backed Socialist Candidate OUSTS Longtime Incumbent Democrat Rep. Adriano Espaillat in New York’s 13th Congressional District

Wow.. socialist are taking over New York. Unbelievable!
DSA has been working to do this for a long time. From Gemini AI:
“DSA candidates take a strict pledge to reject corporate PAC money, as well as donations from fossil fuel executives, real estate developers, and corporate lobbyists.
Instead of relying on a few wealthy megadonors, their campaign infrastructure is built on three distinct pillars: high-volume grassroots donations, public matching funds, and ideologically aligned progressive Super PACs.
In recent election cycles, such as the 2026 congressional primaries, independent expenditures from progressive Super PACs have poured millions into supporting DSA-endorsed candidates.
The major players backing DSA candidates include:
The Service Employees International Union (SEIU) and its various regional locals absolutely do support, endorse, and financially back DSA candidates—though the relationship is highly pragmatic and varies race by race.
Because of strict campaign finance laws (especially in places like New York City, which bans direct corporate and union treasury contributions to candidate committees), this financial backing doesn’t usually look like a single massive check from the union to the candidate. Instead, it flows through union-funded Political Action Committees (PACs), bundled individual member donations, and massive independent expenditures (like running ads or paying for mailers).
Here is how the SEIU interacts with DSA candidates, using your previous example of Zohran Mamdani and the broader political landscape…..
high-volume grassroots donations,
That is code for laundered dirty money from foreigners.
Yup.
The city is deteriorating, it will be interesting to see if it descends to the depths it found itself in during the 1970s under Democrat leadership when things were so bad that the New York Times ran stories begging John Paul Getty II to bail them out but he laughed at the idea.
Those 1970 depths will look like a Mountain to the folks living in NYC in 2030. The only way out now is to flee. Escape from NYC has turned from a movie into reality.
It’s not unbelievable; it was predictable. Look at the voters. Even the Jews voted for Mamdani. NY is a cesspit of illiterates and self-loathing types. NY today and the rest of the nation is the goal.
NYC becoming LA……… One Dem,
Dem-Socialist at a time.

Cold-blooded hatred in that entity’s eyes. Plain creepy.
The establishment culture and Democrat Party candidates are so spectacularly weak in general competence and skills they cannot even keep the 5th Column DSA infiltrators (Democratic Socialists of America and former The New Party of Obama’s first candidacy) from usurping control of the Democrat Party and its local, state and national machinery.
A more interesting issue, the DSA is a product and affiliate extension of the Socialist International. They are champions of foreign ambitions to overthrow the government of The United States by infiltration and subsumation.
It appears the Democratic Party, despite its signature incontinent distemper, is not the only entity with a DSA 5th Column problem. The Monty Python Leftists are minor players. DSA/SI own the red unions.
DSA is the great game and they are now playing their hand for all to see. Infiltration and subsumation works.
Russia is not the problem. It’s how the DSA yells “squirrel.” That works too.

Unreal…
Where are the Mormons? Have they gone communist?
A great many of them were lulled to sleep.
SLC is malignant & it’s infected all of the major arteries of State. Those in positions of influence have either united with the Democrats & embraced DEI with illegal immigration , or remained horridly, wretchedly, silent on the leftward descent.
In the end, the people will have been betrayed through their leaders. Some by encouraging acceptance, tolerance, etc. Most by foolishly following those who remained silent at the most important cultural deconstruction in History.
I remember reading an article 10-15 years ago about LGBTQ groups calling for individuals to move to SLC. There aim was to take over the politics. It was around the time libertarians were wanting to vote to pick a state (NH,VT) to move to so they could change a whole state.
the mormon religion creates compliant, spineless cowards who do not possess the strength of independent thinking. They can be called the “go along to get along” ideology.

I am a lifelong Democrat. I served in the White House for President Clinton, in the State Department for Madeleine Albright, and with the United Nations in Cambodia. I believe the most important role of any government is to protect the most vulnerable people in society and create an environment where everyone can realize their fullest potential. So it gives me no pleasure to have come to the following conclusion:
The American left, including the left wing of the Democratic Party, is currently embracing an orgy of virulent antisemitism.

The Democratic Party will be far better served by an aggressive internal struggle against anti-American DSA bigots like Darializa Avila Chevalier than by allowing this vile brand of anti-American bigotry to define our party.
America remains a nation of centrists who love our country, our democracy, and our shared values. The Democratic Party must reject the DSA. If we don’t, the American people will justifiably reject us.

Jamie Metzl speaks for all democrats.
They believe the most important role of government is to protect the most vulnerable while supporting abortion of the most vulnerable.
Democrats want to create an environment where everyone can realize their full potential. Hard to do if you were murdered in the womb.
That’s only the first of many hypocrisies promoted by democrats.
Hard to do if you are murdered by a 35 time repeat offender on the streets.
Hard to do if you SNAP or healthcare is stolen by fraud.
Thank you!
It’s our assigned task to hammer these points home.
Something, in general, at which the “right” is poor.
Partly because poor organization and strategy.
Partly because the media are lying sycophants of the left.
Partly because the RepubliCONS are GOPe Uniparty cucks.
We can do it most effectively on the local level among friends and family.
Isn’t it true all politics are local?

Many Communists running in badly failing Blue States. The votes seem to have them doing quite well against each other. The bad news is that history has conclusively shown that the downtrodden States that they will soon be running will ONLY GET WORSE. MAGA! President DJT

The sad part is it does not matter to the Communists if the blue states fail. They fudge the numbers and the propaganda tells you not to believe your lying eyes.
And when the dems regain control of government, the failed blue cities get a total taxpayer bailout every 3-4 years.
The mid-terms might be a train wreck.
Most assuredly it will be a trainwreck for the democommies.

DSA candidates poised to hit Albany with a red wave after NY state primary elections
Excerpt:
The deep-blue Empire State got hit by a socialist red wave Tuesday….
….If Tuesday’s results hold — and the likely victors succeed in the November general election — Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s DSA comrades will hold four seats in the 63-seat state Senate and 10 districts in the 150-seat state Assembly. Republicans currently hold 22 state Senate seats and 47 districts in the Assembly.
Three incumbent Democrats in Brooklyn and Queens’ “commie corridor” lost to DSA insurgents
https://nypost.com/2026/06/23/us-news/dsa-candidates-poised-to-hit-albany-with-a-red-wave-after-ny-state-primary-elections
I keep waiting to hear that Wall Street has bagged their bags and moved to Miami.
Wouldn’t that be an appropriate relocation considering our brilliant and insightful President relocated his private residence to Florida before the Mamdani regime came to power. He could see the path his beloved NYC was heading toward.
The results in NYC are not surprising. Anyone earning money there has left or will leave. The NYC commies are quickly running out of other people’s money. Where are those “Sugar Daddies” when you need one?
Perhaps they will be the 1st beheaded and so surprised once SHaria Law is enacted.
Wonder what ‘soon not to be’ Repesentative Dan Goldman, who is worth 253 million dollars, is going to do? 😏
Soon to become European counties who also opened their countries up.
Beheadings on our streets to come?
Sharia Law already being discussed?
Are we this stupid America????
Our voting the GOP nationally has done this to us. Worthless sot of men and women that have kowtowed to dems, libs, Biden, especially obama. The Bushes were treasonous and NOT real happy with what I’m seeing going on now.
Alan Wilson wins in SC. I suppose it could have been worse.
Two things:
Pamela Evette was raised in Ohio and did not move to South Carolina until 2005.
Wonder if there was a ‘Nikki Haley affect’? 🤔
Please elaborate. I have high hopes for future Gov. Wilson.

Another win for Mamdani:
(June 23, 2026 / JNS) Two years ago, Darializa Avila Chevalier occupied Columbia University quad as part of the Gaza Solidarity Encampment. Come November, she will likely be heading to Congress after winning Tuesday’s Democratic primary in New York’s 13th Congressional District.
Chevalier, who frequently wears a keffiyeh, made allegations that Israel is committing “genocide” a focal point of her campaign, lost the endorsement of a local liberal group after she refused to condemn Hamas, could not answer repeated questions from reporters about whether convicted murderers belong in prison and opposes deportation in all circumstances.
But hey, at least she hates Israel!!
Mandani is a post turtle. It’s another win for the Globlists, Pharisees and thier oligarchs.
The war is against the last Western Christian nation standing. The West has surrendered without fighting becuse we fail to see the existential evilbehind all of this.

@JayTC53
Charlie Kirk a few days before he was murdered said the battle of our time is Communism & Marxism combined with Islamism to destroy our way of life. It’s here now in New York. Democrat socialists are +17 favorability among Dems.
Video linked…
The Mamdani backed DS candidates successes have forced the MSM to begin to ‘smell the coffee’ as CNN admitted. They disingenuously called the growing faction, an insurgency, but could not conceal the fact they’ve deliberately obfuscated, the Democrat Party is in a civil war, fragmented and increasingly polarised. They’ve tried to project an image of a united political machine, aided by the Panicans and FUDer ‘if only we were’ crowd, but it’s impossible to conceal the fact that the only unifying thread now is their hatred of Trump which hands him a strategic advantage, because they become predictable. The saga of the Reflecting Pool has become the perfect metaphor for what they represent and the danger inherent in basing a movement solely on envy and hatred.
Whilst the DS snake oil might be very popular among the trust-fund revolutionaries, bedroom dwellers, theatre people, spectrum dwellers, body dysmorphics, self-haters and the mentally unstable, that increasingly represent the Democrat Party base, it’s driving away their traditional base. The numbers are inexorably moving in one direction and the DS’ might find itself taking over a Party just at the time it’s facing redundancy, as it faces an electorate who have moved on from the tired globalist bromides of the 20th Century to the 21st Century’s optimistic self-determinism.
