Father of ‘Missing’ GOP Congressman Says He Is Under Doctor’s Care, Remains Vague About His Return

Further details are emerging about the disappearance of New Jersey Rep. Tom Kean Jr. from Congress for over two months.

In an interview with CNN, former New Jersey Gov. Tom Kean Sr. said his son is receiving medical treatment and is expected to make a full recovery.

“He’s hopefully coming back soon, and he’s under the care of a doctor,” Kean Sr. said, adding that his son had been evaluated by multiple physicians.

“They all agree he’s going to be fine. He’s under a doctor’s care.”

“It took a real illness to knock him out,” he added.

“This won’t linger. It’s not some kind of disease that’s going to incapacitate him in the future. The consensus is that he will be 100% OK.”

BELIEVE HER: Kamala Harris Endorses These Chilling Ideas for Democrats to “Neutralize Red-State Cheating”

Kamala Harris has revealed his week that she is all for a series of radical plans that should terrify every American.

During a Win With Black Women organizing call on Wednesday, Harris tore into the Supreme Court for gutting the Voting Rights Act and letting Southern states get rid of racial gerrymanders in redistricting.

“What they are doing is, they are backdooring racism behind politics to get to this decision and to justify them, what is happening in particular right now in all the southern states,” Harris whined. “This is obviously a time for us to fight.”

Harris later provided a solution to combat this so-called racism. Her prescription is one so chilling that it would likely bring about the end of the Republic.

Harris begins by endorsing expanding the Supreme Court to ensure a far-left majority controlled by the likes of Sonia Sotomayor and Ketanji Brown Jackson.

Then she calls for granting statehood to Washington, DC, and Puerto Rico. This means four new Democratic senators, making it far more difficult for Republicans ever to win it back.

Finally, Harris strongly insinuates that the Electoral College must be abolished. This provides even more incentive for Democrats to manufacture enough votes to steal even more elections.

Gavin Newsom reveals ‘break glass’ emergency plan to block Republican governor

Gov. Gavin Newsom said he has a secret “break the glass” plan to prevent California from electing a Republican governor — though he’s stubbornly refused to make an endorsement in the race to succeed him.

The governor revealed the secret contingency plan to prevent two Republicans from advancing in the governor election — as polls show Trump-endorsed Steve Hilton near the top of the field in the packed race.

Newsom alluded to “action efforts” behind the scenes to make sure Democrats aren’t locked out of the governor’s race, saying he “making my case” to “encourage that doesn’t happen.”

Recent surveys show Democratic frontrunner Xavier Becerra and Hilton as favorites among registered voters, with billionaire Tom Steyer, Republican Riverside Sheriff Chad Bianco and Democrat Katie Porter trailing a few points behind.

The top two vote getters in the June 2 primary election will advance to the November general election.

Newsom has repeatedly declined to weigh in on the race to succeed him.

Fact check: An independence party is NOT required for Alberta’s sovereignty movement

Liberal Member of Parliament Corey Hogan implied the Alberta independence movement has no legitimate mandate unless it takes a partisan approach, as Quebec does.

The statements came when Hogan was speaking at an event held at the University of Calgary alongside former Premier Jason Kenney. Hogan stated, “This is separatism by subterfuge,” because no independence party is running competitively in a general election.

Hogan reiterated the sentiment during an interview on CBC’s Power and Politics, saying, “There’s not an electoral mandate, say what you will about Quebec’s separatism, but there are people that elect governments to be separatists to have questions like that. No such thing in Alberta.”

There are no requirements for partisan involvement in an independence referendum under the Clarity Act nor within the 1998 Supreme Court reference case that laid out the process for a province to seek independence from the federation.

Both Alberta and Quebec have strong sovereigntist movements, but they have taken different paths in pursuing independence. Quebec has established federal and provincial parties with independence mandates, while Alberta’s independence movement has revolved around non-partisan advocacy groups.

Neither approach is more or less valid than the other. The Clarity Act doesn’t demand that a referendum must be invoked by a party or a citizens’ initiative. It only states that the referendum must have a clear question.

If a clear majority of citizens choose independence in a referendum, it represents a clear mandate based on the will of the people, whether a party promoting independence was elected in a general election or not.

Two House Members Remain MIA with Unexplained Health Issues, Missing Dozens of Votes

Concern is mounting in Congress about the status of two lawmakers absent from Washington because of mysterious health issues as both a Democrat and Republican have missed weeks of votes.

Reps. Tom Kean Jr. (R-NJ) and Frederica Wilson (D-FL) have been missing in action — and not voted — in more than a month.

Kean, 57, has not cast a vote since March 5 because of what his campaign called a “personal medical issue” without further elaboration, the Hill reported.

Wilson, 83, has not voted since April 17, though she is expected to return to the Capitol next week.

“The absences come as leaders in both parties are encouraging full participation from their members, given the razor-thin margins in the House,” according to the outlet.

Kean’s absence could impact his reelection campaign, which, if unsuccessful, could alter the balance of power in Congress next year. He represents a swing district.

A statement issued April 27 said the New Jersey lawmaker is expected to “return to a full schedule and be at 100 percent” in the “near future,” but Kean was still absent as the House returned this week.

Meanwhile, his website has been highlighting various community projects, including  announcing on May 11 the winners from his district of a Congressional art competition.

Wilson’s four-week absence went unnoticed until reporter Jamie Dupree noted it in a post on X this week, leading reporters to question House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) about it.

“I Am a C*nt!” – Michigan Democrat Congressional Candidate Shelby Campbell Lashes Out at Critics – Flashes Grotesque Crotch Shot

Michigan Democrat Congressional candidate Shelby Campbell, the young Millennial with a nose ring who is running for the state’s 13th district, called herself a ‘c*nt’ and flashed a crotch shot in her latest stunt.

Recall that Shelby Campbell created a firestorm after she posted a grotesque video mocking Charlie Kirk’s assassination.

“Hey MAGA, how bad does it hurt that Jimmy Kimmel is back, but you can’t get our person back?” a smirking Campbell said, referring to Charlie Kirk.

“Hi Michiganders, specifically Detrioters…..Do you guys care that Charlie Kirk passed away?” the 32-year old said.

“Yeah. I didn’t think so,” she said.

“Because my district is primarily Black people, and Charlie Kirk said awful things about Black people,” she said.

Campbell flipped off the camera as she ended her video.

In another video, which has since been deleted, Campbell disparaged our troops.

“Quit thanking the troops for sacrificing their lives,” she said.

Now she’s posting crotch shots and calling herself a “c*nt.”

“I am a c*nt. Great!” Campbell said in a since-deleted TikTok video.

Romania Strikes Back and Humiliates the EU After Their 2024 Electoral Coup

On May 5, 2026, the pro-European government of Prime Minister Ilie Bolojan collapsed in a parliamentary no-confidence vote engineered by an unlikely but explosive alliance: the Social Democrats (PSD) and the sovereigntist Alliance for the Unity of Romanians (AUR). The motion passed with 281 votes, well above the 233 threshold in Romania’s 464-seat parliament. Ten months after Bolojan took office, the Brussels-backed austerity regime he presided over lies in ruins. For millions of Romanians, this wasn’t just politics. It was payback.

Everyone in Romania knew what happened in November 2024. An obscure independent candidate, Călin Georgescu, surged from nowhere on a platform of national sovereignty, anti-austerity, and skepticism toward endless NATO adventures in Ukraine. He won the first round outright on a wave of grassroots TikTok energy, no lavish campaign, no oligarch money, just raw popular discontent with the neoliberal order. Then the machine kicked in. The Constitutional Court, citing declassified intelligence reports about “Russian interference” via social media algorithms, annulled the entire election. Georgescu was branded a Kremlin puppet, banned from future runs, and hounded with investigations. The rerun produced a safe, pro-EU placeholder government. Romanians called it what it was: a coup d’état.

Liberal ‘Historian’ Claims Republicans Accuse Other People of What They Are Doing, Just Like the Nazis

Heather Cox Richardson is a historian and academic who teaches at Boston College. In a recent video made for her subscribers, she claimed that Republicans use a ‘propaganda technique’ of accusing other people of what they themselves are doing.

There are MOUNTAINS of evidence that show this is actually, exactly what the left does, but it gets even worse. She goes on to suggest that this makes Republicans just like the Nazis because that’s where she claims this tactic comes from.

Now before you dismiss this woman as the idiot she clearly is, you should know that she holds a tremendous amount of influence on the left. Her Substack site has hundreds of thousands of subscribers and she is reported to earn almost a million dollars a year from that alone.

It’s just amazing that she can say these stupid and untruthful things with a straight face:

“The Republicans have perfected a technique for a long time now which really became obvious in the 2000 presidential election, but it’s an old propaganda technique in which you accuse your opponent of what you yourself are doing.

And we tend to identify that in modern politics with Karl Rove, who’s a Republican operative, but in fact, it’s an old propaganda technique that is often identified with Nazi Germany.

And the idea behind it is that if you accuse your opponent of what you are doing, it’s very difficult then for people to understand when the opponent comes back and says, well wait a minute, you’re doing it too.

And what that does is create confusion so that people tend to throw out both sides of the equation and say, well they’re both corrupt.”

Supreme Court Rejects Virginia Democrats’ Request to Intervene in Gerrymander Scheme

The Supreme Court of the United States (SCOTUS) rejected a request from Virginia Democrats for the nation’s high court to intervene after the Virginia Supreme Court ruled to strike down a gerrymander scheme that would have redrawn the state’s congressional map in favor of Democrats.

In an order on Friday, the U.S. Supreme Court’s rejection had “no dissents,” NBC News reported.

Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) responded to the rejection by claiming that the Court had “joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election.”

“The Supreme Court of the United States has now joined the Supreme Court of Virginia in choosing to nullify an election and the votes of more than three million Virginians,” Spanberger wrote in a post on X. “These Virginians made their voices heard — casting their ballots in good faith to push back against a President who said he’s ‘entitled’ to more seats in Congress before voters go to the polls.”

Walgreens Closing Chicago Location Due to Massive Theft, Local Political Leaders Who Enable the Crime Are Outraged

Walgreens has announced that it is closing a store in the Chatham neighborhood of Chicago. They claim that the store is losing upwards of a million dollars a year to theft, so the reason for the closure is no mystery. They say that this particular store loses more in theft than any other store.

And yet… The political leaders in Chicago, who allow thieves to run wild, are angry at Walgreens.

They caused this, with their soft on crime policies, yet they are mad at Walgreens for closing the location.

FOX 32 in Chicago reported:

Walgreens to close Chatham store after more than $1M loss, cites theft and declining sales

Walgreens executives revealed the store lost more than a million dollars last year, partly due to declining prescription sales but also a massive amount of store theft.

“Theft at this store is 16 percent,” Johnson said. “That’s four times above the company average.”

And the company explained that they tried to stop theft.

“Lock boxes help us protect the merchandise in the store. A lot of the time, those lock boxes were getting destroyed. And that’s at a great cost to the company,” said Jason Vasquez, Walgreens District Manager.

They say Walgreens was spending $400,000 a year on security guards in the store, but there were still attacks on store employees.

“We’ve had people jump across the counters, because we sell liquor behind the counter, taking liquor, cigarettes… That wears. That wears down. Not so much the financial piece but the endurance of that day in and day out,” said Lonnie Fuqua, the store’s manager.
