A top adviser to the commander of Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) said Tehran could deliberately prolong its war with the United States in an effort to outlast President Donald Trump, as Washington doubles down on a “WALL OF STEEL” naval blockade that U.S. and Israeli officials say is steadily worsening the Islamic Republic’s economic crisis. “One way is to prolong this war until we get to the next term of the presidency and cause attrition, so that if anyone else wants to attack Iran, they will know there is a cost,” Brig. Gen. Mohammad Reza Naqdi told PBS…
In a newly unearthed video, disgraced former Lt. Colonel Alexander Vindman said both President Donald Trump and Vladimir Putin are “enemies” of America.Now running for U.S. Senate in Florida, Vindman has built his campaign around his obsessive hatred of President Trump and anyone who supports him. Appearing on a podcast called “Rick Wilson’s The Enemies List,” Vindman says: “Which enemy are we talking about here? Are we talking about Russia and Putin?

Obviously, no one voted to make Kamala Harris the 2024 Democrat presidential nominee, but you don’t expect to hear someone like Psaki admit this on the air. From the Vigilant Fox: Jen Psaki admits on MSNBC that Democratic Party leadership used to “SELECT” the nominees, and nobody…
Tuesday on MS NOW’s “State of Play,” former CIA Director John Brennan expressed his concern that President Donald Trump would somehow interfere with the midterm elections. Host Peter Alexander said, “The president has had a hard time getting his SAVE America Act effort through. We’ve heard a lot on this conversation as it relates to voting restrictions. He wants to pass it through Congress. He doesn’t have the votes right now.” After playing a clip of Trump discussing the midterms, Alexander asked, “Your reaction to that? A lot of fear about what may happen ahead of these midterms.” Brennan said, “I think…

Screencap of Twitter/X video. One of the most remarkable aspects of the last two Democrat primaries in Wisconsin and Michigan is how utterly wrong the polls were. Abdul El-Sayed was supposed to win by double digits, according to the polls. He squeaked out a win by one point. Francesca Hong was supposed to win in a landslide, according to the polls. She ended up losing. What is going on? Pollster and political analyst Frank Luntz took to Twitter/X last night and called for a complete shutdown of primary polling in the midwest. I am calling for a total and complete…
On Tuesday’s broadcast of CNBC’s “Squawk Box,” Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger (D) responded to a question on if Democrats like her should speak out against or embrace candidates who have advocated for Hamas and defunding the police by saying that “if I am talking to any candidate, or certainly anyone who might be running in Virginia, my priority is going to be that they understand the vital resources that are needed to keep our communities safe, to strengthen our schools, and to ultimately lower costs.” Co-host Andrew Ross Sorkin asked, “Governor, for example, you’re not somebody who’s been a defund…
Tuesday on MS NOW’s “State of Play,” Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison (D) said he welcomed Democratic candidates who were members of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) because it makes the party debate ideas. Host Peter Alexander said, “There’s a conversation happening among Democrats, and I’m sure a lot of people sitting listening to this conversation right now, who have these real concerns about the sort of divide they’re experiencing within the party between the more progressive candidates and the more moderate, more centrist candidates. The fear is that ultimately it may cost the party some seats, some governors’…
From the power of President Donald Trump’s endorsement to whether the progressive left can win in statewide battleground races, here’s what POLITICO is watching tonight. 1. Wisconsin governor — Democrats’ ideological war If democratic socialist Francesca Hong triumphs against Milwaukee County executive David Crowley, it would be a major victory for the left. But she’d still have to convince Democrats — and even some top progressives like Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.) and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio Cortez (D-N.Y.), who’ve stayed out of the race — that she is electable in a general election. Many Democrats are already warning that Hong could drag…
