Rep. Jim Clyburn Tells the Ladies of ‘The View’ That Republicans Are Trying to Bring Back Slavery

Democrat Rep. Jim Clyburn of South Carolina appeared on ‘The View’ on Monday and claimed that Republicans are trying to bring back slavery.

This is not only insane and untrue, it’s a complete perversion of history. The Republican Party was founded to end slavery in the United States. Abraham Lincoln was the first Republican president, who fought the Democrats on the issue of slavery, which escalated into the American Civil War.

Democrats do this all the time. In 2012, Joe Biden famously said to a mostly black audience that Republicans want to ‘put y’all back in chains.’

Clyburn knows better than this. They all do.

From Nicholas Fondacaro on Twitter/X:

“Anything that’s happened before can happen again. (…) They were trying to set up a process that will allow this country to return to what it was in 1876 when the election got thrown into the House of Representatives and they were able to overturn what Abraham Lincoln and the Congress had done successfully getting rid of slavery. That is what they’re attempting to do today. I get sick and tired of hearing people say this ‘it’s never been like this before,’ Yes, it has!”

From Sanctuary to Subpoena?: Walz and Frey’s Little Rebellion Just Got a Federal Wake-Up Call

Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche accused a governor and a mayor of actively encouraging actions that obstruct Immigration and Customs Enforcement operations, calling such conduct illegal under federal law and saying elected officials should be supporting, not undermining, federal officers.

Blanche made the remarks while addressing what he described as public statements and actions by state and local leaders that he said have encouraged individuals to interfere with ICE agents as they carry out their duties.

He said federal law is clear that officers must be allowed to perform their jobs without interference, regardless of who is doing the obstructing.

He said federal law is clear that officers must be allowed to perform their jobs without interference, regardless of who is doing the obstructing.

“You saw the governor and the mayor actively encouraging, encouraging criminals to go out on the street and impede ICE that is not allowed under our law,” Blanche said.

“When a Federal officer is out doing their job, they have to be allowed to do their jobs.”

Blanche said the Justice Department found it necessary to confront the situation directly because of what he characterized as a breakdown in support from state and local leadership.

He said it was troubling that federal officials had to intervene to address the conduct of elected leaders.

Virginia Democrats Pass Amendment for Abortions Up to Birth

Virginia Democrats have pushed through a radical constitutional amendment to enshrine abortions up to birth in the state constitution, sending the measure to voters in a November referendum after party-line votes in the General Assembly.

The amendment, which would establish a so-called “fundamental right to reproductive freedom,” advanced quickly in the Democrat-controlled legislature. It cleared the House on party-line votes after committee action on January 14, and the Senate followed suit.

Sen. Jennifer Boysko, D-Fairfax, a key sponsor, framed the amendment as protecting health care and contraception, even though it would allow killing babies up to birth for any reason.

Republicans opposed the amendment unanimously. Some attempted amendments to preserve parental consent laws or ensure care for babies born alive, but these were rejected by extreme Democrats who want no limits on killing babies before birth.

From a pro-life perspective, the amendment represents a grave threat.

Virginia’s Catholic bishops, Bishop Michael Burbidge of Arlington and Bishop Barry Knestout of Richmond, condemned it as “extreme and deadly,” warning it would enshrine virtually unlimited abortion at any stage of pregnancy.

In their joint statement following the passage, the bishops called the fast-tracked approval “truly shocking to the conscience” and said the measure “would go far beyond even what Roe v. Wade previously allowed” by providing “no protections whatsoever for preborn children.”

They highlighted risks to Virginia’s parental consent law for minors, health and safety standards for women, conscience protections for healthcare providers, and restrictions on taxpayer-funded abortions.

Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego Calls for ICE to be “Totally Torn Down” – Calls ICE Trump’s “Goon Squad” that’s Not Going After Criminals

Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego on Sunday said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement is Trump’s personal “good squad” and should be “totally torn down.”

“I think ICE needs to be totally torn down. It has to be, you know, created in the image of what people want,” Gallego told host Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union.

It should be remembered that more than 77 million Americans voted for Donald Trump to surge ICE into cities and execute mass deportations. Most people want this.

Gallego then accused ICE of not going after criminals, using warrants to arrest illegal aliens, or being focused on national security.

Instead, it’s a “goon squad that has come from Stephen Miller and Donald Trump,” he said.

He further likened the agency to a “third-world police force.”

“What we’re seeing right now is not what we want from ICE. And we can create and have a force that’s actually focused on immigration and on security and not this type of intimidation that’s happening right now,” Gallego said.

Virginia Dem Goes Nuclear on Kaine, Warner With Sexually Profane Tirade

A Democratic leader in Virginia launched a public and profane attack on two of her party’s most prominent figures over redistricting plans, as intraparty tensions flare ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, as reported by The Independent Journal Review.

Virginia state Sen. L. Louise Lucas blasted U.S. Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner in a series of social media posts Saturday, accusing them of meddling in state-level redistricting and dismissing their input in crude terms.

The outburst followed action by Virginia Senate Democrats, who on Friday approved a proposed constitutional amendment allowing the General Assembly to redraw congressional district maps mid-decade.

The move comes as both parties nationally are positioning themselves for the 2026 midterms, with redistricting increasingly used as a tool to gain or protect control of the U.S. House of Representatives.

After the amendment advanced, Lucas posted an image of a McDonald’s worker asking, “Would you like fries with that?” before turning her attention to Kaine and Warner in a follow-up post.

“I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need ‘coaching’ on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner,” Lucas wrote.

“How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1.”

WTH? Keith Ellison Says Renee Good Died “On Behalf of the Most Vulnerable Members of Our Community” and It’s “Beautiful” – Don Lemon Eats it Up 

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on Sunday described Renee Good’s death after she tried to kill an ICE agent as “beautiful” and noble during an interview with disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon. 

During his pilgrimage to Minnesota to support anti-ICE riots and report on the violent but peaceful protests, Lemon took a moment to join Ellison in glorifying a deranged leftist woman who attempted to murder a law enforcement officer.

At the scene of Renee Good’s violent assault on the agent, Ellison told Lemon that Good “lost her life trying to be vigilant on behalf of the most vulnerable members of our community.” He continued, “I think that that is beautiful.”

Lemon awkwardly responded with affirmation, “As we say in this country, right? ‘We are in pursuit of a more perfect union.’”

“A more perfect union,” Ellison agreed before offering his fist to Lemon.

MN governor threatens to call up National Guard in response to ICE

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) continues to defy President Donald Trump’s efforts to round up and deport dangerous illegal alien criminals. Walz recently declared that Minnesota does not need any further help from the federal government in dealing with political unrest, and he issued a threat.

“I’ve issued a warning order to prepare the Minnesota National Guard. We have soldiers in training prepared to be deployed if necessary,” stated Walz.

This comes after the Minneapolis shooting of Renee Nicole Macklin Good, who was shot after defying orders from federal ICE agents to stop her vehicle, then trying to run them over. Associated Press reported that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem labeled this as an “act of terrorism,” standing firm that ICE was not leaving the state despite the protest of Walz and others.

Insurrection? Minnesota Democrat Rep. Angie Craig Says Local Cities Telling Business Owners to Call 911 on ICE so Local Police Can “De-Escalate Federal Agents”

Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) said while recently touring immigrant owned businesses in Minnesota she was told that local cities are telling business owners to call 911 if ICE agents enter their business or are in their parking lot so local police can “de-escalate federal agents.”

Craig also said, “Minnesotans, we know how to fight. This is no time for Minnesota nice.”

While ICE is trying to arrest and deport criminal aliens, Democrats wants residents to tie up 911 phone lines to stop ICE. Heart attacks, rapes and murder calls to 911 will apparently just have to wait for the insurrection.

Craig made her comments on the MSNOW show Politics Nation with host Rev. Al Sharpton.

Tim Walz ‘Is Complicit in the Theft of Over $9B’ by the Same People Attacking ICE: Minnesota Senator

Minnesota State Senator Steve Drazkowski accused Gov. Tim Walz of advancing a biased political agenda, losing credibility with voters, and manipulating state investigations to protect what he described as a far-left narrative, while also criticizing Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and local media outlets.

Drazkowski made the remarks while discussing the political climate in Minnesota and ongoing controversies surrounding state leadership.

He alleged that Walz is facing growing backlash from Minnesotans and claimed that calls for accountability are intensifying ahead of the next legislative session.

“They have an agenda,” Drazkowski said.

“Tim Walz is losing oil pressure rapidly. A large and growing number of Minnesotans would really like to see him in jail, and we will see articles of impeachment introduced in the Minnesota House when the legislature convenes on the 17th of next month.”

Drazkowski alleged that Walz bears responsibility for significant financial losses in the state and tied those allegations to recent unrest involving federal law enforcement officers.

“He is complicit in the theft of over $9 billion by many of the same people that have been attacking Federal officers for the past two weeks,” Drazkowski said.

Subpoenas issued by grand jury for Tim Walz and Jacob Frey in federal obstruction investigation

CNN reports: “A person familiar with the matter told CNN that a grand jury has issued subpoenas for both men as part of the investigation. But neither office had received any notice as of Friday evening, according to sources familiar with the matter. It was not immediately clear when Frey and Walz would receive the subpoenas.”

Original story follows:

The DOJ has begun an investigation into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey over an alleged conspiracy to obstruct and impede federal authorities carrying out immigration enforcement. Both men have made repeated remarks over the past week and a half encouraging Minnesotans to take to the streets in protest of federal law officers, to track them and film them. They have also demanded outright that the officers leave the city and state. Frey said in a press conference following the death of Renee Good, “get the f*ck out of Minneapolis.”

CBS spoke to sources familiar with the matter, who said that the leaders were under investigation, but the DOJ declined to comment.

The Trump administration ramped up immigration enforcement actions earlier this year in the wake of a massive series of fraud scandals among the immigrant Somali community. Taxpayer funds were siphoned from government grant programs under the guise of providing social services, but those services were never provided. An unknown sum of funds from American taxpayers was absconded with to fund Islamic terror groups.

The scandal was so egregious that Walz suspended his re-election campaign. The Department of Homeland Security surged officers to the sanctuary state, in which local law officers are forbidden by law from working with federal agents. Massive protests ensued when activist Renee Good was shot to death while attempting to ram her car into ICE agents. She had been blocking the road to impede agent operations.

“We’re in a position right now where we have residents that are asking the very limited number of police officers that we have to fight ICE agents on the street,” Frey said after a weekend of protests. “We cannot be at a place right now in America where we have two governmental entities that are literally fighting one another.”

Walz and Frey have since called for protests to remain peaceful. The governor urged Minnesotans not to “fan the flames of chaos” in a message on X Thursday.
