The SAVE Act is hitting a make-or-break moment in the Senate—and Democrats don’t want to defend the indefensible. In this breakdown, we expose the hypocrisy: a throwback Chuck Schumer clip admitting ID is basic anti-fraud, Gavin Newsom claiming he “can’t find” his birth certificate while blocking voter ID in California, and the insane reality of SB 1174.

Jasmine Crockett’s Texas Senate bid is spiraling after a spectacular Epstein “gotcha” backfired in a dramatic Oversight hearing. As headlines swirled around Prince Andrew’s arrest, Crockett tried to tie Trump to Epstein—only for key testimony to undercut the narrative and hand Trump a fresh round of “exoneration” talking points. Then Crockett dropped a bombshell: she claims fellow Texas Dem...

The Supreme Court just dropped a bombshell on President Trump’s tariff agenda: a 6–3 ruling led by Chief Justice John Roberts says the IEEPA emergency powers law can’t be used to impose sweeping tariffs—setting up a huge fight over refunds, markets, and who really controls trade policy. We break down the dissent (Kavanaugh, Thomas, Alito), the shocker votes (Gorsuch, Barrett), Wall Street’s reaction, a...

New York City’s socialist experiment is already hitting the wall. Zoran Mamdani admits he’s “forced” to raid the rainy day fund, tap retiree health reserves, and hike property taxes—after promising “free” everything and claiming only the ultra-wealthy would pay. Meanwhile, homelessness policy whiplash follows deadly winter street conditions, and even CNN can’t hide the economic realit...

Stephen Colbert’s “FCC censorship” story just collapsed — and even Brian Stelter accidentally confirmed it. In this clip, Larry O’Connor breaks down how Colbert and Texas Rep.

Plus: why cable vs. broadcast matters, how the media keeps lying, ...

Kevin O’Leary pushes back, Tess demands “thank me for my service,” and...

The legacy media is still hunting for a “moderate Democrat” like it’s a unicorn—and Jake Tapper’s latest attempt to sell Kentucky Gov. Andy Beshear as the answer is painfully transparent. In this clip, Beshear dodges, the “pendulum” talking point gets exposed, and Hakeem Jeffries gets pressured by Joy Reid to go full “Abolish ICE.” The result? A brutal reminder that the Left&rsq...

Stephen Colbert is pushing a wild censorship narrative — claiming Trump and the FCC “silenced” his Texas Senate guest. In this clip, we break down what actually happened: the Equal Time Rule, CBS lawyers, and why the real fear isn’t Republicans… it’s a Democrat-on-Democrat primary problem.
