New Jersey Rep. LaMonica McIver appeared on Jen Psaki’s MSNBC show this week and said that she never thought she’d face charges over her alleged assault during an anti-ICE stunt. Millions of Americans just thought to themselves – We know. The left never expects to face consequences for their actions because they almost never do. She has pleaded not guilty. McIver should call President Trump and ask him if he expected the Democrats to try to jail and bankrupt him for years. She might actually learn something. The Hill reports: McIver: Assault accusation ‘a scary situation’ Rep. LaMonica McIver (D-N.J.)…

Democrats and the media have discovered a new strategy to protect the communist Muslim Zohran Mamdani from criticism. Just kidding, it’s actually an old strategy.

How much? We don’t really know. Most Israeli military analysts and generals that I’ve spoken to over the last 24, 48 hours think this has gone from a six-months breakout timeframe to two years.” Hochstein said, “Over the last year, year and a quarter, last April, Iran launched a missile attack against Israel, which was 100 ballistic missiles,…
