A “yes” vote for the “big, beautiful bill” is a vote moving away from woke Democrat policies and a vote for President Donald Trump’s agenda, Sen. Markwayne Mullin (R-OK) said during an appearance on Breitbart News Saturday. Mullin said senators are still in D.C. in meetings about the budget reconciliation bill, and they expect to get to work to make to make it a reality over the weekend. “We’re still in negotiations, but right now we’re just kind of putting the pieces together. I mean, we negotiated as much as we can. We’re putting the final pieces together,” he said,…
Socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani is not shy about playing race and class cards in his campaign platform proposal to hike property taxes for “richer and whiter neighborhoods.” Calling it a “soak-the-rich” proposal, the New York Post described the platform as an effort to fix the city’s “notoriously skewed property tax system,” where high-end brownstones are assessed at lower rates than homes and rentals in lower-income neighborhoods. The race-based language is contained in Mamdani’s extensive “Stop the Squeeze on NYC Homeowners” campaign material. It promises that a Mamdani administration will: Shift the tax burden from overtaxed homeowners…
Jim McLaughlin, one of President Donald Trump’s top pollsters, said Hill Republicans should nix Senate Republicans’ deeper Medicaid cuts in the megabill or risk deep backlash from voters. “The Senate needs to go back to the House version on Medicaid in the [One Big Beautiful Bill Act], just like the president wants,” Jim McLaughlin, who runs McLaughlin & Associates, told POLITICO Saturday. He continued: “The working class Americans who gave President Trump his overwhelming victory as well as majorities in the House and Senate deserve nothing less.” More than a dozen at-risk House Republicans are deeply alarmed at the Senate’s…
Thom Tillis Senator Thom Tillis (RINO-NC) is willing to jeopardize President Trump’s agenda and his own political career in the process. As TGP readers may know, the Senate is scheduled to vote on a motion to proceed to President Trump’s big, beautiful bill later this afternoon. The legislation accomplishes several critical policies, including making the Trump tax cuts permanent, eliminating taxation on tips and overtime, locking down the border, and taking an axe to Joe Biden’s green energy scam. However, there are some questions regarding whether the vote will succeed at this point. One key GOP holdout, Senator Ron Johnson…

unemployment line, people out of work looking for a jobgetty A few days ago, I wrote about 10 college degrees with high unemployment for the recently graduated (ages 22 to 27). The data, presented by the Federal Reserve Bank of New York, was from 2023 when the unemployment rate was 3.8% and some of the highest rates of unemployment were among people with STEM (science, technology, engineering, and math) degrees. Some of the examples that had upwards of double the overall unemployment rate were physics (7.8%), computer engineering (7.5%), computer science (6.1%), chemistry (6.1%), and information systems and management (5.6%).…
British Olympic gold medal-winning runner Kelly Holmes is now claiming that the COVID scare made her realize that she had to reveal to the world that she is a lesbian. Holmes told the host of a UK podcast that she knew she was gay as far back as 1988, but avoided making her sexual proclivities public knowledge because she was a career soldier in the British Army. Rules were then in place banning gays in the military. Those rules were dropped in the year 2000, but she still felt she needed to stay quiet about herself, Pink News reported. Her…

After Zohran Mamdani’s apparent victory in the New York Democratic mayoral primary on Tuesday, former Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-Texas) liked an Instagram post congratulating him on his win. The only problem — Jackson Lee died last July. From ghost-likes and new profile pictures to a posthumous endorsement, accounts for dead lawmakers have seemingly resurrected on social media in an unsettling trend of beyond-the-grave engagement. “Dear White Staffers,” an anonymous account dedicated to highlighting experiences and perspectives of non-white congressional staffers, on Wednesday posted a screenshot of a notification that the late Texas representative’s account had liked the congratulatory post…
