Zohran Mamdani’s mayoral platform calls for $10 billion in new city revenue, $9 billion of it from new taxes, to fund sweeping socialist-style programs: “public safety without police, ” free buses, city-run grocery stores, a $30 minimum wage, and universal childcare costing $6 billion per year. It’s the biggest proposed tax-and-spend expansion in NYC history - one that could double down on bureaucracy while pushing jobs, employers, and families out of the city.
School districts nationwide have poured over $17.5 million into “liberated ethnic studies” programs that promote ideologically driven, anti-Western frameworks under the guise of inclusion. A tight network of consultants, universities, and publishers—backed by taxpayer dollars—now shapes what millions of students learn about race, power, and America itself.
Democrats forced America’s first government shutdown since 2019 by holding basic government funding hostage to demand Obamacare subsidy extensions. Polling shows most Americans barely felt any impact, highlighting how much of this fight is political theater, not real governance.
Qatar has funneled $516 million (to 2024) and committed another $221 million (2024–2028) into its partnership with Northwestern University — weaving faculty, curricular, governance, and ideological ties between its Doha branch and the U.S. campus.
Georgetown’s Alwaleed Bin Talal Center for Muslim–Christian Understanding (ACMCU) has been deeply enmeshed with the Safa Network and Islamist actors, receiving nearly $927.6 million in Qatari- linked funding (2005–2023) and staffed by dozens of figures with ties to extremist organizations. Through dual appointments, ideological alignment, and institutional partnerships, Georgetown has become a “beachhead” for radical Islamist influence on U.S. campuses and foreign policy circles.
Nearly half of voters (48%) now say Trump’s peace plan is likely to bring lasting peace to Israel & Gaza — up 15 points since last week.
Crime in D.C. plummeted after POTUS declared a “crime emergency” and brought in the National Guard—homicides dropped 53%, car thefts 35%, and overall violent crime 39%. Meanwhile, Chicago, Memphis, and Charlotte are facing record highs, sparking fierce debates over federal vs. local control of law enforcement.
Socialism isn’t fringe anymore—it’s flooding the system. With nearly half of Gen Z calling it “ideal” and hundreds of DSA-backed officials now in power, the Left’s utopia would cost Americans up to $93 trillion and send jobs, families, and freedom packing.
America’s largest school districts are failing—and fast. While basic reading and math scores plummet, districts are focused on race-based hiring, “equity” pledges, and politically-charged curriculum instead of getting kids back on track.
Unity of Fields is a U.S.-based extremist network that glorifies terrorism, promotes vandalism, and encourages violence against Americans—openly praising Hamas and Hezbollah and calling for the destruction of the United States.
Trump’s policies are driving the recovery — prices are coming down, wages are going up. Now we just need to finish the job: lower rates, fix housing, and give young Americans a shot.
While critics shout “cuts,” the truth is this: President Trump’s Medicaid reform plan is a long-overdue correction that protects the truly vulnerable and reins in the waste. Here’s what it actually does.
Over 38,000 ineligible recipients - including millionaires - were left on Medicaid rolls across states like Ohio, Arizona, and South Carolina.
Iran and its terror proxies have spent decades spilling American blood — from bombing Marines in Beirut to plotting an assassination against President Trump himself - causing nearly 1,000 U.S. deaths and hundreds more injuries. Under weak leadership, they grew bolder, but Trump put them on notice: mess with America, and there are consequences.
