Across the political left, from orthodox Democrats to Antifa in the streets, the opposition to President Trump has lost its collective mind.
The House minority leader and now-self-styled tough guy, New York Rep. Hakeem Jeffries, poses with a baseball bat to show how dangerous he is in opposing Trump’s budget bill.

Bests example of how the left has lost its mind:
Jeffries harangued Congress for eight hours; New Jersey Sen. Cory Booker went on for 25 — both to no effect.
Some representatives now confess that they’re being pressured by their constituents to take a bullet for the cause.
The racialist Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-Texas) — sometimes playing the prep-school prima donna, sometimes modulating her accent to pass as the authentic inner-city activist — gains headlines for monotonously ranting about old white men.
On left-wing social media, the assassin Luigi Mangione remains a heartthrob for murdering a health care executive, replacing the Tsarnaev brothers as the hot new left-wing killer.
He too might soon end up with a cover photo on Rolling Stone.
The left-wing internet mob grotesquely claims children lost to the recent flash floods in Texas deserved their fate.
They advance three sick reasons for their ghoulishness: Texas Christians supported the MAGA agenda and thus met a just fate. Or, as red-state Texans, they were deservedly collateral damage to DOGE’s bureaucratic reductions. Or, as climate denialists would say, the flash flood took righteous revenge on children for their supposed ignorance.
Add it all up, and there is a sizable leftist “base” that is completely amoral.
Then there are the college campuses, where left-wing antisemitism, pro-Hamas terrorism and DEI-fueled racism risk costing elite universities their multibillion-dollar subsidies, which fund the indoctrination of young leftists.
Cash-strapped universities can no longer hide that they were gouging the federal government with outrageous surcharges on grants. They were systematically defying the Supreme Court by their race-based admissions and hiring. They institutionalized segregationist dorms, segregated graduations, and antisemitism.
Finally, there is the so-called “left-wing Resistance” and the street mobs’ descent into violence and terrorism.
Sometimes, thugs ambush ICE agents.
Sometimes, they firebomb Tesla dealerships.
Sometimes, they attack federal buildings, shut down freeways and pelt patrol cars with concrete.
They continue with impunity because they know the Democratic Party cannot and will not censure them.
As in the months-long rioting of 2020, leftist politicos assume their street bandits will cause so much mayhem, violence and chaos that Trump will either be forced to call out the troops (and thus “prove” he’s Hitler) or be too scared to — only to be blamed for the unrest, which could cost him the midterms.
But who or what drives the insane rages of these various armies of the left?
One is an obviously bleeding Democratic Party. Despite gushing about its new DEI, illegal alien, trans, and Middle Eastern constituents, it has no political power. Its issues are mostly 30-70 losers.
It has little power in the House or Senate beyond fake filibusters, performative outrage, or profanity-laced rants.
It lost the White House. The Supreme Court nullified the illegality of left-wing district judges.
It does not trust the people, so plebiscites and ballot measures are mostly out.
Two, unlike his first term, Trump is addressing the causes, not just the symptoms, of the progressive project, whether on the border, crime, cultural issues, or foreign policy.
This time around, there are no John Boltons, no Rex Tillersons, no Alexander Vindmans and no Anonymouses from the inside to thwart the Trump agenda.
The administration is loyalist and committed to addressing the root causes of the left-wing influence, not just its manifestations.
So Trump has focused on leftist sacred cows like NPR, PBS, the elite campuses, USAID and the administrative state — all the inculcators and laboratories of leftist ideology.
Finally, the left is outraged that so far, the Trump counterrevolution is working.
The economy is solid. The border is closed. Military recruitment has radically recovered.
The budget bill has passed. The Iranian nuclear threat has lessened. NATO is strengthening. The Middle East has a chance for calm.
Tariffs did not cause inflation. Deportations created more, not fewer, American jobs. Biological men will likely no longer be winning women’s athletic contests.719
We have elected a person to put our country back on track. He has been moving mountains to set our country on the stage of the Constitution which hasn’t been used since Obama was in office with his czars. Surely, the real Democrats can see what the so-called progressives have done to their party.
First they dumb down the children and look at us now. Why did they do this – to replace us with robots who are being instilled with our knowledge (internet). The tech folks have to redraw the puzzle and include the human piece to fit in our puzzle of life which includes being included, not just outsiders looking in. Not telling us – we don’t count. We are the U.S. and FREEDOM/CONSTITUTION is what matters.
You can’t PAY us off and then set us aside.
The problem is the left, Obama, keeps slinging mud while being the main instigator of the Biden Administration and bragging that Biden’s term was really his. We all know that Susan Rice was the rep appointed by Biden to work (signing bills) with Obama and should be called in by Congress during this investigation. Look at our debt clock and the money spent for what – nothing for the American people.
Obama is still working against the American people. The real Democrats need to wake up. The fake progressives are communists.
The lefties media keep referring to Obama as “influential.” Influential is not the proper word at this point. I think all of you freedom-loving people get the point. I will let you all set the proper word.
The 69-year-old EGOT-winning Ghost actress looked directly to the talk show’s camera Tuesday morning, after introducing a Hot Topic about both the former president and Shark Tank billionaire businessman Mark Cuban‘s observations about left-leaning strategies when it comes to handling bitter divides in American politics.
Goldberg called Obama’s anti-“navel-gazing” note a “blunt message,” before the show played a clip of Cuban giving a virtual speech, during which he criticized Democrat messaging that boils down to “the wrong pressure points” that, as he said, amount to little more than, “It’s just ‘Trump sucks.'”

“Let me remind everybody who was out on the front lines marching, when we had the giant marches that went on. It was the people. The people went out. They were not navel-gazing, it was older people who were saying, ‘Why are you touching my social security?'” Goldberg observed. “It was not people whining, it was about people saying, ‘Why are you taking these rights away from my child when my child was born here?'”
Goldberg added that “this has not been about Democrats laying back,” but rather “about y’all,” with reference to elected officials making decisions, which she said contrasted the actions of left-leaning Americans taking to the streets to protest.
“Democrats have been angry about what [Donald Trump] tried to do the last time. They’ve been angry this time,” she said. “With much due respect to you both, I believe you’re pointing the finger at the wrong person when you say ‘Democrats.'”
After cohost Sara Haines jumped in to clarify, Goldberg doubled down on her point that she was speaking about elected officials, not the voting public.
“[Cuban is] saying our messaging is bad, and I’m saying no, our messaging has not been bad, because people have been out,” Goldberg reminded the audience.
Elsewhere in Cuban’s virtual speech, he said that simply taking offense to everything Trump does is “not the way to win” political contests.

“It’s just not, because it’s not about Trump, it’s about the people of the United States of America and what’s good for them,” he said. “And, how do you get them to a place where they’re in a better position?”
Per the New York Times, Obama’s words came during a private discussion with Democratic donors at an event on Friday.
“It’s going to require a little bit less navel-gazing and a little less whining and being in fetal positions. And it’s going to require Democrats to just toughen up,” Obama said, advising people on what to do instead of shrinking away from political opposition.

It is time for the real Democrats to help this fight for our lives and our country.

The Jeffrey Epstein case continues to haunt Washington, D.C.’s elite.
Powerful people are desperate to keep their secrets buried.
And Victor Davis Hanson exposed the one thing about Jeffrey Epstein that left powerful people scrambling.
Victor Davis Hanson reveals the truth about Epstein’s real business
Hoover Institution Fellow Victor Davis Hanson dropped a bombshell revelation about why the Jeffrey Epstein client list hasn’t been released during an appearance on Glenn Beck’s show.
Hanson cut straight to the heart of the matter when he explained what Epstein’s real business was all about.
“I think it’s pretty clear now that Epstein had no talent other than blackmail, and he was not a financier, he was not a captain of finance at all,” Hanson said.¹
The respected historian painted a disturbing picture of how Epstein operated his criminal enterprise.
“What he did is he invited very powerful people to his island or his New York home, filmed them, and then he bribed them, and he shook them down and said, I’m going to be your quote-unquote financial advisor, and in exchange for that, I’m not going to release all that stuff,” Hanson explained.¹
This wasn’t about legitimate financial services.
It was about control through blackmail.
Epstein managed to extract a half billion dollars from wealthy clients who had no legitimate reason to hire him as their financial advisor.
“There were much better financial gurus, but he got a half a billion dollars somehow from people who were mainstream establishmentarians on the basis that he was going to blackmail them,” Hanson revealed.¹
That’s how this sick predator built his fortune and maintained his power over some of the most influential people in America.
Trump administration got calls from panicked elites
Hanson then dropped another jaw-dropping revelation about what happened when the Trump administration considered releasing the Epstein client list.
According to Hanson, the administration initially planned to expose the names but changed course after getting desperate calls from powerful people.
“I think the Trump administration thought, well, we’re going to release this, and there’s some crazy people that we don’t care about are going to be embarrassed, and then all of a sudden they got a lot of calls,” Hanson said.¹
These weren’t just casual requests.
They were frantic pleas from establishment figures who feared their reputations would be destroyed by association with Epstein.
“They said, why are you doing this? I didn’t do this. I went down to the island once. I was on a plane. I didn’t touch anybody, and now you’re going to release my name, and I’ll be guilt by it,” Hanson explained.¹
The calls came from people who claimed they had limited contact with Epstein but knew that any association would destroy their careers and standing in society.
Even if they didn’t participate in Epstein’s horrific crimes, just having their names connected to his operation would be enough to ruin them.
The establishment’s dirty secret
Hanson believes there are numerous powerful people who had financial dealings with Epstein but weren’t necessarily involved in his sexual crimes.
“There’s a lot of people who are very powerful that were giving him money or were trafficking with him, not necessarily all of them engaging in what he was doing, but just the association with him,” Hanson said.¹
These establishment figures are now putting pressure on people to keep their names buried.
“I think they’re putting pressure on people. I really do,” Hanson said.¹
The fact that so many powerful people were willing to give hundreds of millions of dollars to someone with no legitimate financial expertise speaks volumes about what Epstein had on them.
You don’t hand over that kind of money to someone unless they have serious leverage over you.
Hanson’s analysis explains why the Epstein client list remains one of the most closely guarded secrets in Washington, D.C.
The truth is that releasing those names would likely expose a web of corruption and compromised officials that goes far beyond what most Americans realize.
These powerful people know that their association with Epstein would destroy their careers and reputations, even if they weren’t directly involved in his crimes.
That’s why they’re fighting so hard to keep those names buried.
The American people deserve to know which powerful figures were compromised by Epstein’s blackmail operation.
But it’s clear that the establishment will do everything in their power to protect their own and keep these secrets buried forever.
