The ICE Protests Might Save Trump‼️
The images out of Newark solve Trump's problems and create new ones for Democrats
Order now📕: Our friend Batya Ungar-Sargon’s new book “The Jews and the Left” comes out tomorrow — make sure you preorder on Amazon.
Her book explains the political contradiction of our time: the Jews who refuse to leave a Democratic Party that embraces antisemitism.
Beyond the Jews: Look at Democrats’ embrace of a Nazi tattoo-wearing, rape apologist for the Maine Senate race.
Must watch: Batya this weekend, warning Trump over the economy
Out of Control🌀
‼️Trump is having a tough time between the prices, Iran, the midterms, revolting Republican senators — Axios reports he just gave up his “Anti-Weaponization Fund.”
📱But Democrats just might save him — the images out of Newark solve Trump’s problems and create new ones for Democrats
🚗The unmerry travelers go city by city to riot and fight with police — the playbook is obvious.
🤦The New Jersey rioters came from Portland — shocker
‼️Find a cause like George Floyd, anti-Israel, pro-Iran, anti-ICE — create a flash point and then fight with police while the media treats them like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. at the Edmund Pettus Bridge
They aren’t the same and the world seems to agree.
📱The images show well-funded, trained and organized groups that are far more interested in fighting than resolving legitimate grievances
Amazing🤦: The governor of New Jersey had to apologize and justify sending in the state police to stop riots —
Governor Sherrill: “My top priority is keeping New Jerseyans and our communities safe – and an increased ICE surge in the area outside of Delaney Hall is a threat to public safety… That is why last night, the New Jersey State Police Public Safety Response Team acted to secure the area outside of Delaney Hall. ”
Reality🤷: She sent in the riot squad knowing it would piss off the far left but not sending them carried far higher risks.
❌Americans don’t like riots — civilians getting shot in Minneapolis forced the Republicans to reevaluate. Images of people fighting ICE officers at their own buildings will have the same effect on Democrats.
Watch tonight📺: Bill O’Reilly warned Trump the Minneapolis shootings needed deescalation by ICE — why is this different?
Plus➕: Politics Editor for the Free Press Mene Ukueberuwa on who is exactly training and funding these groups.
Will LA Go Pratt❓
🗣️Republicans say the rise of Spencer Pratt in Los Angeles is proof of a silent majority even in deep blue California — that may be, but it hasn’t happened yet.
👀California is for Republicans like Texas is for Democrats.
Need help🆘: LA needs help. Decades of progressive utopia policies predictably left the city overrun by drugs and homelessness
Nicely played😂: The ultra progressive city councilwoman running for mayor said homeless encampments near schools aren’t a problem — then someone set up a fake homeless encampment near her house — she lost it —
Zoom out🤷: The California governor’s race is an embarrassment for Democrats — some honest ones admit it — that doesn’t mean they will lose
🔒The possibility of a Republican lockout — with Steve Hilton and Chad Bianco finishing first and second, seems impossible at this point.
Watch tonight📺: Nikki Laurenzo, who moderated the governor debate, and Evan Barker on what to watch for tomorrow
Graham Cracked‼️
🤦This weekend, Democrats contorted themselves into circus-like creatures defending Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner.
Awkward😬: He will be in DC tomorrow meeting with Democratic senators — think about all the female senators who trashed Pete Hegseth’s womanizing now championing Platner.
SAD👎: Democrats have decided that there is nothing disqualifying as long as they think you can win.
Look back🔙: The party ditched former Sen. Al Franken in like a day after a tawdry picture
Look farther back◀️: The family values party elected Donald Trump.
🗣️Democrats spent the past years saying how dangerous fascism and Nazism are — now that’s their party.
Today📅: Graham Platner — who has a Nazi tattoo, sent sexually explicit messages to women who aren’t his wife and blamed rape victims — is leading in the polls in Maine.
Platner (D): 51%
Collins (R): 42%
He gets standing ovations around the state
A winner‼️: Democrats can’t imagine giving up a possible Senate flip
Example📱: Mike Nellis writing on X:
“Susan Collins has been in the United States Senate for my entire life. She has no major accomplishments, and it would be hard to argue that the people of Maine are materially better off because of her decades-long career in Washington.”
Must watch📺: Our buddy Chris Cillizza with how quickly everything changes
Danger⚠️: Some Democrats realize the danger of getting on a train that is literally crashing
Good read 📰: Erick Erickson with the sober view.
🚨There’s nothing disqualifying now in American politics — we are all flawed.
The Free Press says that’s why the public no longer cares about so-called “scandals.”
Watch tonight📺: Dan Turrentine and Alex Seitz-Wald on the lack of outrage over the clearly outrageous
The two parties keep trying to rescue each other.
