Democrat Rep. Invents a New Trump Crime: Repairing Buildings Is Violence

This is a stretch. This Democrat Representative, who is actually in Congress, says that restoring and repairing buildings is violence. Democrat Rep. Jonathan Jackson said, "The President's proclivity, inclination in the administration is towards violence. You've seen the violence on the buildings of

Senator Thune Will Not Get Back to the SAVE Act Any Time Soon

Senate Majority Leader John Thune has reportedly refused to commit to getting back to the SAVE America Act after the budget and FISA are handled later this week. Thune says we may have “other pressing stuff” that’s more important than election integrity, per Punchbowl “If we don’t have other pressing stuff in front of us that has to get done…then we’ll see about getting that going.” The Senate will keep postponing this bill until it is too late. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R–SD) has refused to bring the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act—a Republican–led voter ID bill—up for a Senate vote, despite intense pressure from President Donald Trump He told reporters: “We don’t have the votes either to proceed, get on a talking filibuster, nor to sustain it if we got on it. That is just a function of math,” The Rubin Report. Thune also warned that altering rules could waste Senate time and risk a monthlong deadlock. Rep. Burchett said some Republicans won’t vote for it just because they hate Donald Trump, and others are committed to the filibuster. Meanwhile, we are losing our last opportunity to secure the Republic. These Republicans who refuse to pass it are not on our side, and the Democrats are even worse. Republicans refuse to put the country first, and Democrats are full-blown communists.

Blue Double Standards: California’s Swalwell Case

Media outlets across the country lit up in mid-April with the same jaw-dropping headline: California’s top Democratic contender for governor had just been forced out of the race over explosive sexual misconduct accusations. In a matter of hours, Rep. Eric Swalwell lost every major endorsement, watched his campaign collapse, and was effectively tossed into the political dumpster. On the surface, it looked like another MeToo reckoning in a party that loves to lecture the rest of us about women’s rights. But scratch the surface, and the real story is far uglier—a textbook case of Blue double standards. California’s 2026 gubernatorial race was already shaping up as a nightmare for Democrats. Golden State voters are fed up with years of progressive experiments that delivered sky-high taxes, rampant homelessness, and a cost-of-living crisis that’s driving families out. For the first time since Arnold Schwarzenegger left office in 2011, Republicans have a genuine shot at flipping the state red. Recent polls told the tale. Conservative TV host Steve Hilton and Riverside County Sheriff Chad Bianco were trading the top spots with support in the 14-17 percent range. Democrats were scattered behind them, with Swalwell—until the scandal hit—polling as the strongest in the fragmented Blue field. Don’t forget California’s peculiar “jungle” primary system. All candidates run on one ballot in June. The top two vote-getters – regardless of party – advance to November. That means the general election could feature two Republicans, two Democrats, or one of each. With the Democratic vote split among a half-dozen hopefuls, the math was already terrifying for the party of Gavin Newsom. A strong Republican showing could lock them out entirely. Then came the bombshell. In the first week of April, detailed allegations of sexual assault and misconduct poured out – including claims from a former staffer who said Swalwell assaulted her in a New York hotel room. More women came forward with stories of inappropriate messages, unwanted advances, and worse. Within days Swalwell suspended his gubernatorial bid and later resigned from Congress. Democratic leaders raced to distance themselves. House Democratic Leader Hakeem Jeffries called for him to drop out. Nancy Pelosi said the allegations should be handled “outside of a gubernatorial campaign.” Labor unions and Sen. Adam Schiff yanked their endorsements almost overnight. The party that brags it’s the champion of #MeToo suddenly discovered its moral compass – right when the cameras were rolling. Here’s where the hypocrisy stings. Swalwell wasn’t some fringe backbencher; he was a high-profile Trump critic and reliable foot soldier in the fight against MAGA America. Democrats had promoted him, fundraised for him, and positioned him as a future star – until the public found out. The speed of the cancellation wasn’t about principle. It was about damage control. Sexual misconduct was apparently tolerable behind closed doors when it stayed inside the Blue tent. The moment it became a national story, Swalwell became radioactive. Democratic strategists wasted no time seeing the silver lining. Swalwell’s support—concentrated among certain Democratic voters—can now be redirected to whichever Blue candidate emerges strongest. That consolidation could be the difference between a two-Republican November ballot and one that still gives Democrats a fighting chance. In a fragmented field, his sudden exit might have been the best thing to happen to the party’s long-term math. Whether the timing was pure coincidence or a calculated storm remains an open question. What isn’t open to debate is the double standard. The same Democrats who spent years preaching zero tolerance for misconduct were perfectly comfortable carrying water for one of their own—until the voters could see it. California’s jungle primary just got a whole lot more interesting, and the Blue Wall is showing fresh cracks. If the people of the Golden State are truly tired of the hypocrisy and the failed policies that come with it, November could finally deliver the red reset they’ve been waiting for. ~~~ Mike Robertson is a U.S. domestic and foreign policy analyst and commentator, with more than 30 years of law enforcement experience in some of the toughest neighborhoods.

Six Republicans Voted with Democrats to Continue TPS for Haitians

The Trump administration removed the protected status for Haitians, and Democrats have a bill to restore it. The TPS system is corrupt and should be abandoned or followed, no matter the nation involved. We have many Haitians in New York, so Mike Lawlor and Nicole Malliotakis want endless protected status for Haitians to keep their jobs as New York City representatives. Kevin Kiley is going to be redistricted out of his position. So, he is trying to keep it by leaving the GOP and becoming an independent. Maria Salazar is the furthest left on amnesty of any Republican. She wants amnesty for millions. Carlos Gimenez is sympathetic to people who don’t belong here, and Don Bacon is a RINO Trump-hater. These six House Republicans voted with Democrats today to advance Rep. Ayanna Pressley’s (D-MA) HR965, which would provide Temporary Protected Status to Haitians in the US for 3 years. The motion passed 219-209. It will now go to a final House vote tomorrow. Temporary Protected Status has become another Democrat tactic to give amnesty to millions.

In a Vulgar Tirade, James Carville Says President Trump Might End Up in The Hague

Not only does James Carville look like the walking dead, but he, an aged Democratic strategist, sounds like a demon. Carville made one of his videos for us. In this clip, he is predicting a grim future for Donald Trump. However, Democrats constantly predict Trump’s defeat, and then they have to eat crow when he comes back stronger than before. Carville, from his living room to yours: Listen to me. Trump, I’m gonna tell you fat f* a* something you’re getting ready to get the living crap kicked out of you. You don’t know, because they haven’t really told you. Let me tell you something. They’re gonna they’re gonna start breaking the news to you kind of gently, and you’re gonna sit there and wonder what it feels like to be punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson, but you won’t know, because it’s quite one thing. So imagine what it’s like to get punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson. It’s another thing to ask get punched in the mouth by Mike Tyson, and that’s what’s gonna happen to you in November. “Now let me tell you about your future, your post-November future first. People are not gonna return your phone calls. They’re gonna correctly think you’re yesterday. Yet you, they’ll say, Well, he’s got two years left. He can do damage. No one gives a shit about him. “The Democrats are going to investigate you to no end. I would like to introduce you to Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, (D-Rhode Island), because it is a lot of people’s view, by the way. And Congressman Jefferson said to Sherman, they’re going to go down to the White House on November 10, and then you’re going to have some stiff photo of them sitting there talking about collegiality, and corporations believe that bulls*; then they go start going after you; then they go start figuring out where all the money stolen is. “Then they’re going to go after you, stupid Jackass kids, and their spouses and all other bullshit that you see. And they investigate shit out of you when it comes to this stuff you’re doing in Iran, I gotta tell you, you’re getting really, really, really close to war crimes here. You’re probably gonna cross the line. And the one thing that Democrats are going to insist on in a 2028 election is that if you’re indicted by the international courts. And I think I said in the heart, The Hague, somewhere in the Netherlands, we’re gonna protect your a*.” Sadly, Carville could be right. The deranged Democrats might put President Trump on trial, possibly send him to the Hague, and prosecute his family. James Carville tells President Trump that after the midterms, “The Democrats are going to investigate you to no end… Then they’re going to go after your stupid jackass kids and their spouses.” pic.twitter.com/Yfl8MRgYoC — Breitbart News (@BreitbartNews) April 2, 2026 The post In a Vulgar Tirade, James Carville Says President Trump Might End Up in The Hague appeared first on www.independentsentinel.com.
