“I Am F**king Getting You!” Unhinged Mayor Lunges At Resident During Chaotic Meeting

A New Jersey mayor erupted in a profanity-laced tirade during a chaotic public meeting Wednesday night, charging toward a resident and threatening him before several people rushed to restrain the furious politician.

Pemberton Township Mayor Matthew Bianchini, a Republican, was caught on camera lunging toward Michael Sawka, a frequent critic of his policies, as an already contentious council meeting descended into pandemonium.

“I’m fucking getting you,” Bianchini shouted as others scrambled to prevent a physical confrontation.

The wild incident unfolded while recently fired township official Ken Gerber, a retired police chief, was addressing council members about his dismissal, which supporters have characterized as politically motivated.

Video captured Sawka gesturing toward the back of the room before making an obscene gesture toward the mayor. Bianchini suddenly sprang from his seat and rushed toward him.

Councilman Perry Doyle Jr., a retired police officer, helped restrain the mayor before escorting him away. Police subsequently arrived to restore order.

In an interview with WPVI-TV afterward, Bianchini conceded to losing control.

“I just basically snapped,” the mayor admitted. “I hate to put it this way, but it’s a long time coming.”

“Was it wrong? Absolutely. Was it justified? Absolutely. And I would do it again if I had to,” he added.

Sawka disputed the mayor’s account, insisting he never left his seat, Fox News reports.

“I’m just sitting there. I never got up. I sat there the whole time. I was calm the whole time,” Sawka said.

Sawka has filed a municipal court complaint seeking assault and terroristic threats charges against Bianchini. Police have not announced any charges against the mayor.

DEMS GONE WILD: Democrat Candidate Gets Into NASTY Brawl With Her GOP Opponent’s Mom in Bathroom During Campaign Event

The latest entry in the ‘Democrats Gone Wild’ series has dropped, and it is among the most insane yet.

As The New York Post reported, Kisha Skipper, a Democrat who is trying to unseat GOP Westchester County Legislator James Nolan, got into a wild and nasty brawl with his mother during a campaign event at the Beczak Environmental Center Wednesday night in Yonkers, New York.

Yonkers police say the brawl started during a break at the event, when Skipper got into an argument with a former campaign staffer.

Nolan’s mom, Donna, then decided to try to separate the two women. Police say she “sustained an abrasion to her lip.”

Then, Donna Nolan and Skipper began fighting.

After the brawl concluded, Donna Nolan was transported to the hospital via ambulance.

Skipper also appeared to sustain a significant injury. As The Post notes, she shared a Facebook post showing her wearing a sling on her arm at the hospital’s emergency room entrance.

DOJ Moves to Preemptively Block Certification of Alaska Senate Race

The U.S. Department of Justice is seeking to preemptively block certification of the Alaska U.S. Senate contest should the state certify “electoral results tainted by the inclusion” of liberal activist Daniel J. Sullivan, who is being propped up by left-wing Democrats due to sharing the same name as incumbent Republican Sen. Dan Sullivan.

The two-term senator is seeking a third term in office and is one of four candidates in the race, along with former Democrat Rep. Mary Peltola, the liberal Sullivan, and Gerald Heikes.

The lawsuit, which was filed in federal court in Alaska on October 22, provides a lengthy list of exhibits detailing the extent of which left-wing interests have sought to confuse voters with identical names and signage. The Alaska Division of Elections initially kicked the liberal activist off the ballot, but his candidacy was reinstated by the Alaska Supreme Court.

The liberal activist Sullivan told the New York Times he voted for the Democrat nominee in the last three presidential elections and did not vote for the senator in his previous two campaigns. He said he backed Peltola in her 2022 and 2024 U.S. House bids and has donated to her and other Democrats, according to previous Breitbart News reporting.

Alaska uses a controversial ranked-choice voting process, in which voters are asked to rank their choices in each contest on the state’s ballot. Even small shifts in preference could play a role in the eventual winner of the race.

In addition to the state, the suit names Alaska Elections Division Director Carol Beecher, the state’s election boards, and the state Ballot Counting Review Board as defendants, CNBC reported on the matter.

“The United States accordingly brings this lawsuit to protect the integrity of the 2026 Senate election in Alaska,” the filing reads.

Mike Rogers’s Wife Raked in Lucrative Government Security Contracts While Rogers Served as Intel Chair

Mike Rogers and his second wife, Kristi, saw their wealth rise substantially after Rogers was elevated to chair of the House Intelligence Committee in 2011 and lucrative government contracts poured her way, a review of financial disclosures finds.

Rogers was first elected to Congress in 2000, in time to be a major backer of the Iraq war. With a background at the FBI, Rogers was encouraged by Speaker Dennis Hastert to get involved in foreign policy and national security matters. According to the Rogers Archive at Oakland University, he made seven trips to Iraq between 2001 and 2005 as a member of Congress. In 2005, he was appointed to the House Intelligence Committee. (Drop Site could not independently verify the number of trips, but taking seven trips to Iraq in the space of four years would be highly unusual for a member of Congress—and trips in 2001 or 2002, before the invasion, are unlikely.)

Kristi Clemens was a top press aide to L. Paul Bremer, who oversaw the U.S. occupation of Iraq as head of the Coalition Provisional Authority. Clemens turned heads in DC in 2006, when, following her role in Iraq, she successfully pitched the major British security contractor Aegis Defence Services to launch an American offshoot. Within three years, she rose to CEO and president. Rogers divorced his wife of 17 years in 2007 and married Clemens in 2010. By 2011, when Mike Rogers assumed his chairmanship, she was vice chair of Aegis LLC US.

After his divorce, according to Rogers’s financial disclosures, the congressman had few assets to his name and little wealth. That would soon change.

The Rogers family added at least hundreds of thousands of dollars to their net worth as Rogers was elevated to chair of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence (HPSCI) and Kristi Rogers’s private military security company received increasingly large contracts from the U.S. government, according to Rogers’s financial disclosures. The couple added millions more after Rogers left the House and began working in the industry he had spent years overseeing.

While Rogers is not required to disclose his spouse’s income, their reported “Unearned Income,” including multiple investment funds, dividends, and interest income, soared over those years. They also acquired two mortgages in Maryland and Virginia—neither principal residences.

Hillary Clinton Slams Matthew McConaughey Over “Really Unfortunate” Calls to Support Independent Candidates

Failed Presidential Candidate and former First Lady Hillary Clinton appeared on a liberal podcast yesterday, where she slammed actor Matthew McConaughey over recent comments he made, innocently reminding people that they have the right to vote for whoever they want this election cycle.

McConaughey posted a social media video this week, reminding people that they don’t need to vote just Republican or Democrat this November, arguing that “Independents belong in the fight,” while noting, “I’m not telling you who to vote for.”

“They’ve been telling us for years that an independent vote is a wasted vote. Well, a great question for our times is: has that unwasted vote been working out for you?” he said.

“I’m telling you to look at your ballot, study up, see if they represent you, what you believe in, check if they can be that voice of reason in the middle for you, and if they can, treat them like a potential winner because they can be.”

Kara Swisher played the clip and asked Hillary Clinton for her thoughts on her “High Stakes” podcast yesterday.

It was basically a thought crime for Clinton, who suggested that it was irresponsible for McConaughey to use his platform in such a way, “two weeks before a midterm.”

AOC Claims the FBI and DOJ That Democrats Used to Investigate Trump Are Now Corrupt and Must be Investigated

AOC of New York was recently in Maine campaigning for Troy Jackson.

During her remarks, she went off on a tangent about the FBI and the DOJ, suggesting that both agencies are corrupt and must be investigated.

Why? Because they’re going after her good friend Ilhan Omar.

AOC had no problem with the FBI or the DOJ when Democrats were using them to investigate Donald Trump, because that was just different.

Transcript via Real Clear Politics:

REP. ALEXANDRIA OCASIO-CORTEZ (D-NY): First and foremost, everything that we are seeing unfold right now is an absolute weaponization of the Department of Justice and the Federal Bureau of Investigations, point blank period. And I want to zoom out, you know, if you’re having a conversation with someone that isn’t sure about the details of what’s happening in the news and whatnot, just know that it has been standing practice in order to protect the integrity of our elections that the FBI and the DOJ do not take actions like these within a certain time frame of an election, regardless of what is happening in any circumstance of an investigation.

And so the very fact that this is happening in October and September tells you, period, that these agencies have been weaponized and compromised. So what we have to do, whether it’s this, whether it’s the corruption that we’ve seen with crypto and the ballroom and all of these things, is that we’ve known that Kash Patel has purged the FBI of many serious investigators. We’ve known that the Department of Justice has also been weaponized in its absolute groundless indictments of everyone from Tish James to Jerome Powell and so on and so forth.

Day one, we need to be opening investigations into the heads of every single one of these agencies, and we need to hold them accountable. I’m talking subpoenas. I’m talking investigations.

Katie Hobbs Canvassers Busted by Muckraker Trying to Register Felons and Noncitizens to Vote – Hobbs RUNS When Confronted!

Muckraker on Thursday published an election report out of Arizona, using undercover reporters to catch the Democratic Party, nonprofit groups, and labor unions backing Incumbent Governor Katie Hobbs, attempting to illegally register noncitizens and felons to vote.

Muckraker caught multiple Democrat organizations allowing blatant voter fraud.

These suspect groups were caught attempting to register noncitizens to vote and mobilizing noncitizens and felons to vote in the upcoming election.

When Katie Hobbs was confronted with the findings, she ran away from questions.

Muckraker posted their latest investigation on Thursday.

Per Muckraker:

Here’s what we found:

Stand Indivisible Arizona (endorsed Gov. Hobbs in their 2026 ballot guide) — Our journalist posed as a Canadian citizen and asked to register to vote. The canvasser not only agreed to help the alleged non-citizen register, but when asked whether other Canadians could register too, she said, “Tell them to do it online.”

Worker Power (working to re-elect Gov. Hobbs) — Our journalist told a canvasser they were not a U.S. citizen. Despite this, at our journalist’s request, the canvasser marked “yes” on the citizenship question of the voter registration form.

When We Count (the DNC’s own registration program) — Our journalist posed as a felon on probation and asked to register to vote. The canvassers looked up the law and saw that a felon on probation is ineligible. Even so, they encouraged our journalist to register: “You should just do it.”

AFL-CIO (phone bank mobilizing voters for Gov. Hobbs) — Our undercover journalist asked a phone bank trainer whether to ask the people being called if they’re citizens. The trainer’s answer: “We don’t care.”

First, Muckraker caught a volunteer for Stand Indivisible Arizona, a liberal nonprofit group backing Hobbs and other Democrats’ campaigns, attempting to register a journalist posing as a Canadian citizen, as well as his Canadian friends at a voter registration drive at Paradise Valley Community College in Phoenix.

‘Those f**kers gotta go’: Leftists obsess over causing the deaths of … Republicans’ kids!

Democrats and other leftists have engaged in rhetoric endorsing violence for years now.

The result has been multiple assassination attempts on President Donald Trump, and an urging that people should be aiming pistols at Vice President JD Vance.

That ideology of death now has expanded to target other Republicans and even “their children.”

That’s according to the Cougar Chronicle, in Utah, which obtained a recording of a discussion among members of a group People of Provo Against ICE.

The report confirmed they are “fantasizing about murdering their opposition along with their children.”

The report explained that POPAI conversation participants also discussed allowing conservatives to be re-integrated, through “reeducation.”

“Venna Anne, a woman within POPAI leadership, was discussing her dreams in life. When someone told her ‘You just can’t get away from capitalism,’ she responded with ‘No, unless we kill everybody.’ Ashton Hirschi, also in POPAI leadership, told her that they only needed to kill ‘some’ people, initially settling on ‘500.’ Venna said that ‘You also have to kill their children and their [line of succession],'” the report documented.

And, “Ashton conceded the point and said ‘We need to get the politicians.’ When asked if ICE could integrate back into society, Ashton said ‘If you’re talking about politicians or billionaires? No. Those f**kers gotta go. Period and point blank.’ On ‘counter-revolutionaries or MAGA people,’ Ashton said that ‘There’s a possibility for reintegration [into society]. It would have to come through reeducation.'”

A previous audio obtained by the Cougar Chronicle, the publication explained, showed “SDS UVU leader Collin Grannis’s intentions of making it ‘as uncomfortable as possible for people to get in’ to TPUSA’s Charlie Kirk memorial event, was posted to X.”

POPAI’s messaging also allegedly has included “Shoot Trump” stickers.

“On October 15, an article identifying David Chappell, Democratic candidate for Utah House District 62, as a member of POPAI was published,” the report said. “As of the time of writing, Chappell has refused to disavow POPAI… ‘

Johnson budget spends and taxes more

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson’s 2027 budget proposal includes a new package tax, a new tax on large employers and several tax increases.

Johnson introduced his $17.6 billion spending plan on Wednesday, up from $16.7 billion this year.

The mayor said his budget ensures that every Chicagoan receives their fair share of the city’s investments, services and opportunities.

“Funded by responsible spending cuts that protect essential services and by asking the wealthy and the largest corporations in this city to pay their fair share,” Johnson said.

The budget includes a 15-cent tax on non-medical and non-food containers and packages, plus a $25 per employee monthly tax on large businesses outside of socioeconomically disadvantaged areas.

The mayor’s office said the Equitable Employer Tax would bring in an estimated $113.8 million. The tax would fall on companies with 125 full-time employees or more. Johnson’s budget says that it impact 3% of the city’s registered businesses.

Last month, a group of 29 Chicago aldermen advised the mayor they would work on a budget that includes no head tax or tax on employers.

“If we can show the public that we’re being good fiscal stewards and looking at what the right size of government should be, creating technology efficiencies and then looking at revenue last, I think that’s a better narrative versus what this mayor is proposing,” Alderman Gilbert Villegas told The Center Square.

Aldermen rejected Johnson’s head tax proposal last year and passed an alternative budget, which the mayor allowed to take effect without his signature or veto.

Johnson’s new budget raises the Personal Property Lease Transaction tax from 15% to 20% and the sports wagering tax from 10.25% to 20%.

The PPLT tax hike is projected to raise an additional $234 million and the betting tax hike is expected to bring in an extra $37 million.

Illinois Hotel & Lodging CEO Michael Jacobson said Johnson’s proposed head tax, PPLT increase and liquor tax increase would add to rising cost burdens for hotels and businesses.

“City leaders must reject these proposals and pursue a budget that supports local businesses,” Jacobson said in a statement.

The spending plan calls for using $42.9 million in tax increment financing surplus and $37.7 million in catalyst fund revenue.

The mayor touted a $30.9 million subsidy to Chicago Public Libraries and prioritized funding for community violence intervention.

“We are making a historic $40.6 million investment in CVI, activating 390 street outreach workers and 800 peacekeepers,” Johnson said.

The mayor also called for the permanent establishment of the Department of Community Wellness and Safety.

Ilhan Omar Chuckles Nervously When Asked if She Married Her Brother, Says “Not to My Knowledge”

Rep. Ilhan Omar gave a weird response when asked if she married her brother in an interview on Wednesday, suggesting she’s unsure of the answer in an awkward, apparent attempt at sarcasm.

This comes as feds have obtained Omar’s DNA, which could be used to prove that she married her brother to commit immigration fraud. However, the probe appears to be focused on Ilhan Omar’s own fraudulent naturalization and other crimes involving her finances.

During an interview with MS Now’s Chris Hayes on Wednesday, her first since the raid on her Washington, DC, home last Monday, the two spoke about Omar’s marriage to her biological brother, Ahmed Nur Said Elmi. The claim was first reported by a Somali website called Somalispot.

“Who was this man that was your husband? When did they start saying that he was your brother? Why?” Hayes asked.

Omar appeared nervous while laughing and said, “It started with the Somali blog that I don’t know if it still exists, but somebody put him there that, you know, that he had to have been my brother or something to that effect, and right-wing conspiracy theorists in Minneapolis got a hold of it.”

She continued, “And they just kind of went and like found random people who were like, she introduced us, you know, ‘she introduced him to us and said he was her brother,’ which is, you know, insane. I mean, I don’t, I don’t know those people that they talk about.”

Hayes then asked, “You were not related to him at all? There’s not some weird kernel of truth?”
