The race is on. Not just the race for California governor, but the race to be the first (or perhaps last) gubernatorial candidate to be raided by the FBI, arrested and sent to jail. California is the most corrupt state in the country. 576 California officials were convicted of federal crimes in just the last decade. Its future governor could be the 577th criminal. The current front runner is Attorney General Rob Bonta, Gov. Newsom’s handpicked successor, whose political prospects hit a slight bump in the road when he was forced to disclose spending $468,000 in campaign funds on lawyers due to, what he claims is, being a witness in a federal bribery investigation. That’s a lot of money for a mere “witness” to a bribery investigation (and how exactly does a state attorney general become a ‘witness’ to a bribery investigation without making any arrests), but Bonta explained that “the attorneys that I have had been working around the clock, to be responsive, to be efficient, to be compre...

Zohran Mamdani ran for office promising New Yorkers free everything. And then he asked them to give him $4 million to fund his transition team. In a fundraising video, Mamdani claimed that he only had $1 million to keep paying his “incredible team” for the next 50 days. He also had to “vet the 50,000 resumes we’ve received” for that incredible team. Now we know where those millions for Mamdani’s “incredible team” are actually going. Mamdani has brought on 400 people to his transition team across 17 committees including a committee on community organizing, on worker justice, and on immigrant justice. Despite the claims that the Muslim socialist needed millions of dollars to go through tens of thousands of resumes, the ‘team’ is mostly drawn from his political allies in the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), Islamists and other people who were already involved in his campaign. The Mamdani transition team has a disproportionate number of Arabs and Muslims on it. For example, the Co...

The latest brutal act of Afghan refugee terrorism claimed the lives of two brave members of the National Guard in D.C.. Since their arrival in the United States, Afghan ‘refugees’ have been involved in violent attacks, in assorted crimes, and in sexual assaults on women and girls. The attack by Rahmanullah Lakanwal took place a mere week after another Afghan, Abdullah Haji Zada, was sentenced to 15 years in prison in the Election Day plot. Abdullah and Nasir Ahmad Tawhedi , his Afghan brother-in-law, a former ‘guard’ at an American facility in Afghanistan, had plotted a mass shooting attack directed at “large groups of people” on Election Day. A video showed Tawhedi reading to Zada and his daughter “a text that describes the rewards a martyr receives in the afterlife.” Politicians and the media have claimed that Afghans guards and soldiers like Rahmanullah and Nasir were ‘heroes’ and ‘allies’ who protected our soldiers. In reality, they were insider threats. The claims that they can’t ...
