Jasmine Crockett Answers Bash On Cooling Down Rhetoric — By Trashing Kirk And Painting Trump As Hitler

After CNN anchor Dana Bash on Sunday played clips of Rep. Jasmine Crockett calling President Donald Trump an “enemy to the United States” and comparing him to Hitler, the Texas Democrat doubled down.

Even after Trump faced two assassination attempts, Crockett called the president a “wannabe Hitler” during a July interview on MSNBC. Bash asked Crockett on “State of the Union” if she had “a responsibility” to cool down her rhetoric, but she said she did not and that the president was using Hitler’s “playbook.”

“I think that my responsibility is to be transparent and to be honest. And the reality is that we are living in a time in which this administration and this regime is not interested in making sure that people understand history,” Crockett said. “We need to understand why they are so problematic.”

“So I am using that language because it is accurate language,” she continued, saying Trump’s policies are “a playbook out of Hitler and I won’t deny it! Like, these are the facts.”

Crockett also insisted Trump has repeatedly “called specifically for violence” before turning her ire on slain Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk, not for the first time in the interview — which took place while his memorial was getting underway in Arizona.

“We know that Charlie Kirk was saying things about who should live and who should die. I have never said those kinds of things,” she claimed without evidence.

Crockett continued to rant in a heated manner for over two minutes without Bash interrupting once.

Shortly after Kirk’s Sept. 10 assassination, Crockett similarly justified calling Trump a “wannabe Hitler” on “The Breakfast Club” in an interview published Sept. 12.

“Me disagreeing with you, me calling you a wannabe Hitler, all those things are like not necessarily saying ‘Go out and hurt somebody.’ But when you’re literally telling people at rallies, ‘Yeah, beat him up’ and that kind of stuff, like you are promoting like a culture of violence,” Crockett said.

Lawsuit: Children of LGTBQ+ Advocate Sen. Ron Wyden Allegedly Drove Assistant to Suicide with Homophobic Taunts

A lawsuit alleges that the children of U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR) harassed their mother’s personal assistant with homophobic taunts and “sexually explicit” comments, driving him to suicide.

Details of the lawsuit, reported by the New York Post, present a stark contrast to the record of Sen. Wyden, who has been a longtime advocate in Congress in support of gay, lesbian, and transgender issues.

For two years, ending in 2024, thirty-five-year-old Brandon O’Brien worked for Nancy Bass Wyden, the senator’s wife and owner of Strand Bookstore in Manhattan.

O’Brien’s tasks included driving the couple’s young children to school in New York City and watching them at Disney World, according to the Post.

The lawsuit was filed by O’Brien’s husband, Thomas Maltezos, against Bass Wyden and her company, Bass Real Estate LLC, in Manhattan’s Superior Court.

It alleges the disturbing behavior by the couple’s kids began about three months after O’Brien took the job in 2022, when the couple’s ten-year-old daughter “exposed herself” to the assistant and made explicit comments as she asked him about his “intimate” life.

Maltezos alleges in the suit that the mom did nothing about the incident.

Additionally, Wydens’ teenage son berated O’Brien with homophobic slurs such as “faggot” and “zest kitten,” the suit claims. The boy also allegedly threatened that his football team would “rape” the assistant.

The son’s behavior was so out of control that his mom once had to “mace” her son, but inadvertently maced O’Brien in the process, according to court papers.

Calling the lawsuit “baseless and deeply misguided,” lawyers for Bass Wyden have sought to have Maltezos’ lawsuit dismissed, court records show. They contend it is a cover for O’Brien’s own “serious misconduct,” allegedly a “pattern of theft” from the household.

When O’Brien finally quit in frustration a year ago, Bass Wyden, 64, filed a report with the NYPD the next day, “accusing him of stealing $650,000 in credit card and other thefts, authorities said.”

That began a pattern of harassment by the prominent businesswoman who allegedly spread “false rumors” about him, the suit alleges.

O’Brien committed suicide in late May, seven months after he left the job. Authorities dropped the theft case after the suicide. Lawyers for Maltezos argued the accusation was false.

“The allegations against the senator’s wife are shocking, disturbing, and cruel — no person should ever be subject to this level of harassment, much less in the workplace,” Maltezos’ attorneys said in a statement.

Sen. Ron Wyden, 76, was elected to Congress in 1981, and he married Bass Wyden in 2005. “The couple has three kids in addition to Ron Wyden’s two adult children from his first marriage,” according to the Post.

The Post reported that “the senator and his wife have a home in Portland,” but Bass Wyden’s social media shows she visits New York to attend to the business her family founded 98 years ago.

Sen. Wyden, a progressive Democrat, has been a frequent critic of President Donald Trump over immigration, the Epstein case, and DOGE staffing cuts.

Ironically, considering the lawsuit and his children’s alleged homophobic statements, in late 1995, Wyden became the first U.S. Senate candidate to publicly support same sex marriage.

He also introduced a bill in June calling for sanctions on foreign countries that violate “human rights of LGBTQI+ communities” around the world.

He most recently garnered widespread television coverage battling with Health and Human Services Secretary Robert Kennedy Jr. at an oversight hearing this month.

During the hearing Wyden claimed that “every day” Kennedy has been in office, he has taken action that “endangers the health and welfare of American families.”

AOC Becomes De Facto House Minority Leader

Before last Friday’s House vote on a symbolic resolution condemning the assassination of Charlie Kirk and all forms of political violence while honoring his life, the purported leaders of the Democratic Caucus informed its members that they would support the measure. Yet, in a truly vile floor speech prior to the vote, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y) called the resolution “reckless” and claimed Kirk’s “rhetoric and beliefs were ignorant, uneducated, and sought to disenfranchise millions of Americans.” In the end, less than half of the Democrats voted for the resolution. The rest stood with AOC.

This atrocity occurred after Democrat Leader Hakeem Jeffries, Whip Katherine Clark and Caucus Chair Pete Aguilar released the following statement: “We will vote yes on H.Res.719 which is on the floor today … Political violence against anyone for any reason at any time is not acceptable.” This moved only 95 Democrats to vote for the resolution. As for the rest, 58 voted “Nay,” 38 voted “present” and 22 didn’t bother to vote. The resolution passed because 215 Republicans votes took the total “Yeas” to 310. What does this say about the Democrats? AOC holds greater sway over their caucus than its elected leader.

The far left faction of the Democrat House Caucus has metastasized dramatically. Just a few years ago, it was a small, obnoxious minority. Now, it constitutes the majority. Contrast Friday’s disgraceful vote to the vote on H.Res.519 last June. That resolution condemned the murder of Minnesota state legislator Melissa Hortman and purported to “reaffirm our commitment to a safe, civil, and peaceful democracy.” The measure passed unanimously. Yet, somehow, the Democrat commitment to a safe, civil, and peaceful democracy is not quite strong enough to protect Charlie Kirk from being posthumously slandered by Rep. Ilhan Omar (D-Minn.):

What I find jarring is that there’s so many people willing to excuse the most reprehensible things that he said, that they agree with that, that they’re willing to have monuments for him, that they want to create a day to honor him, and that they want to produce resolutions … I am not going to sit here and be judged for not wanting to honor any legacy this man has left behind, that should be in the dustbin of history, and we should hopefully move on and forget the hate that he spewed every single day.

The above diatribe was Omar’s response to a question from CNN’s Kaitlin Collins about the well-deserved criticism she has received for comparing Charlie Kirk to “Dr. Frankenstein” and extending the moronic metaphor by saying, “His monster shot him through the neck.” This was, of course, a classic case of “victim blaming” and she is clearly unrepentant. Omar and AOC are typical of the far left ideologues who now dominate the Democrat Caucus in the House. Another example is Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-Miss.), who presided over the House investigation of the J6 “insurrection.” Below is an excerpt from his statement about the Charlie Kirk resolution:

Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric was divisive, disparaging, and too often rooted in grievance. The beliefs he evangelized normalized fringe views on race, sex, and immigration. Unfortunately, his rhetoric resurrected dangerous prejudices of a dark past … I cannot in good conscience honor someone who demeaned women, immigrants, and Black Americans, and who even questioned the very foundation of civil rights progress in this country. This resolution is intentionally written to be divisive.

Like the outrageous claims made by AOC and Omar, Johnson’s assertions about Charlie Kirk’s rhetoric and motives are pure fiction. That he is willing to say such things about a young man who was so recently murdered is utterly reprehensible. More important than such repugnant smears, however, is the very real possibility that the Democrats could win a majority in the House of Representatives in the 2026 midterms. Because far left demagogues like AOC, Omar, and Johnson now dominate the Democrat Caucus, this is genuinely terrifying. The improbable lesson these people have “learned” from their 2024 defeat is that they need to move to the left.

Indicted House Democrat BUSTED for Dirty Money—AGAIN

In South Texas, a growing scandal involving indicted Congressman Henry Cuellar is exposing just how deep the rot runs in America’s political institutions—and how little Democrats or the media care about election integrity.

Cuellar, who represents Texas’s 28th Congressional District, is under federal indictment for accepting more than $600,000 in foreign bribes from a Mexican bank and a state-run oil company in Azerbaijan. 

Prosecutors allege that Cuellar and his wife personally profited from years of secret deals, using their public positions to advance the interests of foreign entities. 

Adding to the gravity, three of Cuellar’s top aides are now cooperating with the Department of Justice.

Yet despite facing trial, Cuellar was not removed from the 2024 ballot. 

Instead, he ran for re-election and supposedly defeated Republican challenger Jay Furman in a district Donald Trump carried by seven points. 

Somehow, Cuellar won by five points—a shocking 12-point swing.

Furman submitted more than 80 affidavits from voters who said his name was missing from their ballots. 

The Texas Fourth Court of Appeals ordered a forensic review and instructed Webb County Judge Tano Tijerina to conduct it “immediately.” 

Judge Tijerina refused.

The situation quickly escalated from suspicious to outrageous. After blocking the ballot inspection, Judge Tijerina announced his own planned campaign for Congress—entering the same race he had just helped suppress. 

In any functioning democracy, such a conflict of interest would end careers. In South Texas, it simply became another chapter in a growing scandal.

Financial records make the picture worse.

She’s Turning on Everyone: Cackling Kamala Harris to Publish Private Messages Showing Gavin Newsom Snubbed Her Endorsement

Kamala Harris is now “social distancing” from the Democrat Party—a peculiar strategy Harris will unleash Tuesday, September 23, in the form of her 2024 presidential campaign memoir, 107 Days.

The Gateway Pundit reported that, in excerpts from 107 Days, Harris refers to White House staff as being “hypnotized” during Joe Biden’s ill-fated 2024 presidential run.

“‘It’s Joe and Jill’s decision.’ We all said, like a mantra, as if we’d all been hypnotized. Was it grace, or was it recklessness? In retrospect, I think it was recklessness. The stakes were simply too high,” Harris wrote.

Harris further unloaded on Biden for intimidating her during a phone call just before she was defeated by President Trump in a pivotal September 2024 debate. Per Harris, Biden told her:

“My brother called. He’s been talking to a group of real power brokers in Philly.”

Harris continued:

“His brother told him that those guys were not going to support me because I’d been saying bad things about him… [He] made it all about himself, distracting me with worry about hostile power-brokers in the biggest city of the most important state.”

In 107 Days, Harris also confesses that she lied to the American people regarding Biden’s failing health, and she demeans her running mate Tim Walz, along with Pete Buttigieg and Gavin Newsom.

Harris grotesquely implies she only selected Tim Walz as her running mate over Pete Buttigieg because Walz was a “straight white man.”

“[Buttigieg] would have been an ideal partner—if he were a straight white man,” Harris wrote. “But we were already asking a lot of America: to accept a Black woman, married to a Jewish man.”

Inadvertently, Harris’s comment underscores everything rotten about identity politics. By outwardly assuming elections can be swayed by the homophobia of swing state voters, Harris herself commits the truly homophobic act of denying Buttigieg, against her better judgment—only later to insult Buttigieg, Walz, gay Americans, and everyday Americans.

As Harris today implements her shocking scorched-earth political strategy against the Democrat Party, Real Clear Politics finds her polling 16 points below Gavin Newsom for the 2028 Democrat Party presidential nomination.

Hilariously, a new Politico report reveals that, according to 107 Days, Gavin Newsom brushed off Harris’s immediate request for an endorsement with the words: “Hiking. Will call back.”

According to Harris’s notes: “He never did.”

Nancy Pelosi 2.0? Ilhan Omar Gained MILLIONS In Power

Ilhan Omar has built a reputation as one of the most controversial members of Congress. 

But while her political career has grabbed headlines, the story of her husband, Tim Mynett, deserves far more attention. 

Since marrying Omar in 2020, Mynett has seen his career and wealth skyrocket in ways that look eerily familiar to the questionable financial gains of other powerful Democrats, most notably Nancy Pelosi’s husband.

Mynett first entered the spotlight as a political consultant with E Street Group. 

Federal Election Commission filings later revealed that Omar’s campaign had funneled nearly $600,000 to Mynett or his firm between 2018 and 2020. 

This arrangement raised obvious ethical concerns, but Washington dismissed them as if nothing unusual had happened. 

Months later, Omar and Mynett married. By then, his firm had already cashed in on lucrative contracts thanks to her campaign.

Fast-forward to today, and Mynett has reinvented himself as the founder of Rose Lake Capital, a private investment firm that has raised more than $100 million over the years. 

According to his own biography, he has built relationships in some of the most “innovative political campaigns” of the past decade and claims to have brought “substantial change to the corridors of power.” 

In other words, Mynett has leveraged his political connections to accumulate influence and wealth. 

Conveniently, his most crucial tie happens to be his wife, one of the most polarizing lawmakers in America.

Meanwhile, Omar’s reported net worth has exploded.

Virginia Democrat Gubernatorial Candidate Abigail Spanberger Gives NON-ANSWER When Asked About Boys in Girls’ Bathrooms

Abigail Spanberger, the Democrat who is running for governor of Virginia, was recently asked by a reporter if she supports the idea of boys who identify as girls being in girls’ bathrooms and locker rooms.

She could not answer. The answer she did give was a Kamala Harris style word-salad. When the reporter asks her to simply say whether or not she supports it, she ran away.

This is a political ‘Achilles’ heel’ for Democrats. They can’t say they fully support it because they know the public doesn’t, and they can’t say they don’t support it because they will alienate their own base voters.

Transcript via WJLA News:

Nick Minock: “As you know, there’s a battle playing out between the Trump administration’s U.S. Department of Education and five Northern Virginia school systems. The Trump administration is taking aim at their locker room and bathroom policies. They [the Trump administration] say those school systems are violating Title IX by having policies that allow students to use bathrooms and locker rooms based on their gender identity, not biological sex. So can you tell us directly, do you support biological males, who say they’re women, using women’s locker rooms and bathrooms and competing in women’s sports?”

Democratic candidate Abigail Spanberger: “The circumstance as this legal case plays out is really one of we’ve had court cases settled or judged here in Virginia in the fourth district, the former Gavin Grimm case related to bathroom usage. And in fact, the argument is the assessment is there needs to be much clearer guidance in terms of what is an executive order’s binding assessment of Title IX versus what has been a decision of a court.

Democrat Indicted for Bribes Reappointed to Key Spending Committee

In one of the most glaring examples of Washington’s broken standards, Congressman Henry Cuellar (D-TX) has been reappointed to the powerful Appropriations Conference Committee—despite being under federal indictment for bribery and corruption. 

The move signals not only poor judgment but also a complete disregard for accountability in Congress.

Cuellar, who represents Texas’s 28th Congressional District, was indicted earlier this year on charges that he accepted hundreds of thousands of dollars in bribes from foreign companies and governments in exchange for political favors. 

According to federal prosecutors, he and his wife received payments funneled through shell companies tied to entities in Azerbaijan and Mexico. 

The Department of Justice detailed how Cuellar allegedly used his position to influence U.S. policy while personally enriching himself. 

These charges are among the most serious faced by any sitting member of Congress in decades.

Yet, instead of stepping back while the legal process unfolds, Cuellar is being rewarded with a seat at the table where the nation’s spending decisions are made. 

The Appropriations Conference Committee is no ordinary assignment. It brings together members of the House and Senate to finalize government funding bills—deciding how trillions of taxpayer dollars will be spent. 

For decades, this committee has been considered one of the most influential in Congress.

The irony is staggering. At a time when trust in government is near historic lows, the Democrat party has decided to empower a member facing corruption charges with direct control over how federal funds are allocated. 

This is not just tone-deaf; it undermines every claim Democrats make about protecting “integrity” in government.

Cuellar’s defenders point to his long tenure in Congress and his reputation as a centrist. First elected in 2004, he has positioned himself as a moderate voice on issues such as border security, veterans’ services, and agriculture. 

His district, which spans from Laredo up toward San Antonio, undoubtedly benefits from his seniority. But the fact remains: the allegations against him are not minor. Bribery, foreign influence, and abuse of office go to the heart of whether a representative can be trusted with public responsibility.

The message this sends to the public is devastating.

Liberal Texas Parents Group Caught Doxxing High School Students for Organizing Turning Point USA Chapter

A liberal parents’ group in Texas has been accused of doxxing high school students who were attempting to organize a Turning Point USA chapter at their school in the wake of founder Charlie Kirk’s assassination, according to Moms for Liberty.

The Harris County chapter of Moms for Liberty uncovered the actions of “Be the Change SBISD,” a group operating in the Spring Branch Independent School District.

The group allegedly published social media content from the students involved in forming the TPUSA “Club America” at Stafford High School, in an effort to prevent the club from holding meetings on campus.

The Moms for Liberty chapter posted screenshots on X, writing, “Stratford HS TEENS forming a TPUSA Club America were DOXXED by ADULTS sharing students’ internal GroupMe content in a ‘BE THE CHANGE’ private FB group, urging 730 members, operating in secrecy, to also intimidate teacher sponsors. REPREHENSIBLE. These are KIDS!”

Mother ‘furious’ after Rep. Crockett calls daughter murdered by illegal migrant a ‘random dead person’

The mother of murdered Maryland woman Kayla Hamilton is calling out Rep. Jasmine Crockett, who referred to her daughter as a “random dead person” during a debate on a bill named in Hamilton’s honor.

“You just don’t call a victim of a crime, just a random dead person. No victim should be referred to as a random, dead person,” said Tammy Nobles on “Fox & Friends First.” 

“What she said was really nasty, and it came across as racist.”

Crockett, D-Texas, made the comments earlier this month during a House Judiciary Committee debate on the Kayla Hamilton Act. 

Hamilton was 20 years old when she was sexually assaulted and strangled in 2022 by a teenager from El Salvador who was in the country illegally and later identified as an MS-13 member.

“You take a situation, and then you exploit what has happened to not only that person, but you exploit those families, and you make it a game,” said Crockett during the hearing. 

“Stop just throwing a random dead person’s name on something for your own political expediency.”
