Have you noticed that pretty much every time Ilhan Omar speaks, she says something that’s insulting to or about the country she supposedly represents?
In recent, public remarks, Omar called ICE an occupying force in Minneapolis. She also labeled it as an unlawful paramilitary force.
She has a lot of nerve to talk about the brave men and women of ICE in that way. They do more for America in a day than she has done in her whole life.
Transcript via Real Clear Politics:
REP. ILHAN OMAR: I represent Minneapolis, which is currently under occupation.
We do not exaggerate when we say we have schools where two-thirds of the students are afraid to go to school.
We do not exaggerate when we say we have people who are afraid to go to the hospital because our hospitals have occupying paramilitary forces.
We do not exaggerate when we say our restaurants are shutting down because there are not enough people to drive the employees to work and from work.
We do not exaggerate when I say we have people who are housing other people because they are afraid to go home.
And that is all happening in an American city.
We have two neighbors, two of my constituents, who were shot by federal agents as cameras recorded. And their president maligned their name and told us not to believe our eyes.
When we say it is time for Kristi Noem to go, we mean it now.
When we say there needs to be accountability for the architect of the terror we are facing in Minneapolis and so many other cities, which is Stephen Miller, we mean we need accountability for him now.
Here’s the video:

James Talarico is a Democrat rep. in Texas who is running for U.S. Senate, but he is not the only one vying for that nomination.
Jasmine Crockett is running for it as well, and so is another black Democrat named Colin Allred.
Talarico may have already nuked his campaign, because he allegedly made some questionable comments about Allred. Isn’t it funny when Democrats succumb to their own attack tactics?
FOX 4 in Texas reports:
Colin Allred blasts Senate hopeful James Talarico over alleged ‘mediocre’ comment
A dispute over alleged racial comments could impact voter preferences in the upcoming Democratic Senate primary.
On Monday afternoon, former congressman Colin Allred blasted Senate candidate James Talarico for comments the senate hopeful reportedly said about his Black former political opponent.
“I understand that James Talarico had the temerity and audacity to say to a Black woman that he had signed up to run against a mediocre black man, meaning me,” Allred said in a social media video.
“This man should not be our nominee for Senate. I was not going to get involved in this race, but don’t come for me unless I send for you, OK James? And keep my name out of your mouth.”
“This man should not be our nominee for Senate. I was not going to get involved in this race, but don’t come for me unless I send for you, OK James? And keep my name out of your mouth.”
TikTok influencer Morgan Thompson laid out the claims from a private conversation she had with Talarico last month, saying he told her he signed up to run against “a mediocre Black man,” referring to Allred, and “not a formidable, intelligent Black woman” referring to his current opponent, Jasmine Crockett.
Caolin Allred responded on Twitter/X.

Talarico is also under fire from Christians for some comments he made during an appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast where he tried to make a case that the Bible is pro-choice. Watch:

For progressives, their progressivism always comes first, before everything. That’s why Talarico twisted himself into knots trying to make the Bible sound pro-choice. Their politics always come first.

The Grammy Awards show this year was an absolute disgrace. Billie Eilish insulted the country with her stupid woke comments and Trevor Noah insulted President Trump.
The one silver lining for all of this is that not very many people were watching. In fact, viewership was way down this year, especially among young people.
There was a time when people all over the country tuned in for awards shows like this, but woke celebrities ruined it all with their ignorant political remarks. People have been ignoring them in increasing numbers almost every year.
FOX News reports:
Grammy Awards viewership plummets 20% among young adults in final year on CBS
CBS’ presentation of the 68th Grammy Awards on Sunday night shed significant viewers compared to recent years.
The politically charged event that saw several celebrities use the music award ceremony to criticize the Trump administration and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) averaged 14 million total viewers, an 11% drop compared to last year and a 20% decline compared to 2024.
When it came to the advertiser-coveted demographic of adults age 25-54, the Grammys averaged 5 million viewers compared to 5.7 million last year, for a 13% decline. The event also dropped 19% among adults age 18-49 and 10% of viewers at least 55 years old.
The biggest dropoff came among young viewers, as the Grammy Awards averaged 2 million viewers age 18-34 compared to 2.4 million last year for a 20% decline.
The Grammy Awards will move to Disney networks and streaming services in 2027 after 54 years on CBS. The 2026 edition featured several artists wearing “ICE OUT” pins, including Billie Eilish, Justin and Hailey Bieber, Kehlani, Joni Mitchell, Carole King and Brandi Carlile.

If you caught any of the Grammys and the sickeningly stupid comments from people like Billie Eilish, you may be wondering how these liberal dopes all seem to come to the same conclusions.
Adam Carolla has you covered on this. During a recent episode of his podcast, he broke down how this works.
He suggested that these people are simply terrified of being ex-communicated from the cool kids table.
Transcript via the Western Lensman on Twitter/X:
“If those people started saying, we support Trump, guess who’s out? Yeah, you’re f*cking out.”
“Whatever the subject, you guys, here’s what it is. And this will prevent you from getting kicked out of the club.”
“Now we’re going to have an award show, and you get up there and whoever praises whatever your policies are the loudest — oh, and by the way, we hate Trump.”
“So you got to say something sh*tty about him. And then something great about Black Lives Matter or whatever that thing is.”
“Whoever does that the best is going to stay in the club the longest.”
“So now you have a decision to make, you know, one of three things. You can either go up there and do ICE out and nobody’s illegal. You’ll be fine.”
“Or you can go up there and just be neutral, not say anything. But that will make people wonder if you should be in the club.”
“Or you can touch that third rail and say you love ICE and love Trump, in which case you’re 100% out and you’re going to get booed off the stage.”

Devine said that the cases will be stonewalled, and by the time they even get looked at, Trump will be out of office.
“By the time that case is don,e even being looked at, and ready to go to court, Trump won’t even be in office anymore,” Devine said.

In December, an angry Somali woman ‘working’ at a daycare – with no children inside – slammed the door as journalist Nick Shirley asked some simple questions about the so-called children’s center.
Minnesota Childcare Center claims it takes care of 102 children, however, the facility is empty.
“We’re just wondering where the children are,” David, a man who has been investigating the Somali fraud for years, asked. “It says you have 102 children here, and you got $2.66 million this year in funding. And $2.5 million last year. We’re just wondering where the kids are.”
“And who are you?” the Somali asked.
Another Somali learning center couldn’t even spell ‘learning’ correctly.

“We uncovered over $110,000,000 in ONE day. Like it and share it around like wildfire! Its time to hold these corrupt politicians and fraudsters accountable,” Nick Shirley said.

A $250,000 campaign contribution to Iowa State Auditor and gubernatorial candidate Rob Sand (D-IA) was made by LinkedIn co-founder Reid Hoffman, whose visits to Jeffrey Epstein’s private island, New York townhouse, and New Mexico ranch are documented in emails released by the Department of Justice.

NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell was very upset on Monday with the league’s latest head coaching hiring cycle.
According to ESPN, 10 head coaching vacancies were filled this offseason, and only one went to a minority candidate.
None went to a black coach.
That outcome clearly bothered Goodell, who used his Super Bowl week news conference to signal that the league would now reevaluate “everything” connected to the Rooney Rule. The rule, among other things, requires teams to interview at least two minority candidates for head coaching positions.
“We still have more work to do,” Goodell said at the San Jose McEnery Convention Center in San Jose, California, during his annual Super Bowl week news conference, ESPN reported.
Goodel added that the NFL must continue to “make progress” and “meet the challenges of today and tomorrow rather than yesterday.”
“We still have more work to do.”
—Roger Goodell on the NFL hiring zero Black head coaches this cycle. pic.twitter.com/MxDFvuoeQv
— ESPN (@espn) February 3, 2026
The commissioner insisted that every team was Rooney Rule-compliant, according to ESPN, and that most teams actually exceeded the interview minimums.
In other words, the paperwork was in order, but the league did not get its preferred DEI outcome.
Heading into the 2026 season, the NFL will have three black head coaches across 32 teams, which is pretty proportional to the country’s demographics. (Black men make up about 6 percent of the United States population.)
Goodell’s response to that reality was to fume about more diversity.
What he did not do was acknowledge that the NFL is a meritocracy, whether the league office likes that or not.
Owners hire coaches to win games, not to check off diversity boxes. If a coach wows an owner, that coach gets hired. If the coach wins, he keeps the job.
It really is that simple.
Meanwhile, as Goodell gripes about diversity metrics, his league is preparing to alienate millions of fans on the sport’s biggest stage.
Sunday’s Super Bowl halftime show — featuring the Puerto Rican rapper known as “Bad Bunny” — will once again be a progressive cultural spectacle rather than entertainment.
It will feature performers who openly align with leftist activism and who deride traditional American values.
Considering the star’s performance at the Grammys on Sunday, the show will almost certainly be anti-police, anti-border enforcement, and hostile to the country that made the NFL an empire.
Many fans never returned after the national anthem protests of half a decade ago. It turns out, being lectured by millionaires isn’t popular with many Americans.
Goodell’s comments aren’t going to bring many back during a week when Bad Bunny is likely to be demanding unchecked immigration while wearing a dress.
The NFL can continue to reevaluate everything about its DEI hiring, but many former viewers have already reevaluated their relationship with the league.
We decided years ago that the NFL no longer shares our values, stopped watching, and will not be tuning in on Sunday to watch ourselves be mocked.

Iranian lawmakers chant anti-U.S. and anti-Israel slogans in parliament
Several Iranian lawmakers were seen chanting “Death to America” and “Death to Israel” while wearing military uniforms during a parliamentary session broadcast by state media. The gesture took place amid heightened regional tensions and coincided with statements by President Donald Trump, who said Iran is negotiating with the United States.
The parliamentary protest was interpreted as a signal of political and military defiance, linked to internal support for the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) and rejection of Western pressure. The episode highlights the

U.S. forces shot down an Iranian drone Tuesday after what officials described as an aggressive approach toward an American aircraft carrier.
The incident occurred in the Arabian Sea as the USS Abraham Lincoln transited international waters.
BREAKING: The U.S. military says it shot down an Iranian drone that approached an aircraft carrier in the Arabian Sea with "unclear intent." https://t.co/Lx2YFYXpR6
— The Associated Press (@AP) February 3, 2026
According to a report from CNN, the unmanned aircraft was intercepted hours before another encounter with two Iranian gunboats.
A U.S. military spokesman said the drone ignored efforts by American forces to de-escalate.
Capt. Tim Hawkins, a U.S. Central Command spokesman, said, “The Iranian drone continued to fly toward the ship despite de-escalatory measures taken by U.S. forces operating in international waters.”
An F-35C fighter jet launched from the carrier shot down the drone, Hawkins added.
The carrier was operating roughly 500 miles from Iran’s southern coast at the time.
Hours later, two gunboats operated by Iran’s Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps approached a U.S.-flagged tanker.
The gunboats threatened to board and seize the vessel in the Strait of Hormuz.
The developments were addressed during a Fox News exchange on Tuesday afternoon.

President Trump on Tuesday went off on CNN correspondent Kaitlan Collins, calling her “the worst reporter” and attacking her credibility, during a heated back-and-forth in the Oval Office over the Epstein files.
Collins, in her typical nasty fashion, began by attacking Trump over the Epstein files, noting that Elon Musk and Treasury Secretary Howard Lutnick appeared in the files, though they haven’t been accused of any wrongdoing.
The Gateway Pundit has reported extensively on the Epstein files and the recent release of 3 million files by the DOJ, which feature prominent Democrats corresponding with the late pedophile and even plotting against Trump. Most notably, we discovered that Bill Gates caught an STD after having sex with Russian girls. Additionally, leftwing author Michael Wolff, infamous for his error-riddled “Fire and Fury” book that painted a sensationalized and widely debunked portrait of Trump’s White House, encouraged convicted pedophile Jeffrey Epstein to blackmail then-presidential candidate Donald Trump during the 2016 election cycle, according to newly released emails.
Trump responded, “I’m sure they’re fine. Otherwise, there would have been major headlines.” But Collins didn’t even let him finish before purporting to stand up for the victims of Jeffrey Epstein and using them to attack Trump over transparency in the Epstein files release.
As he attempted to respond, Collins cut him off once more, and he wasn’t having it. “Yeah, what did you say? Go ahead, CNN,” Trump said after finishing his thought as Collins talked over him.
“You are so bad. You are the worst reporter. No wonder CNN has no ratings because of people like you. You know, she’s a young woman. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile. I’ve known you for 10 years. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a smile on your face,” he continued.
“You know, why you’re not smiling? Because you know you’re not telling the truth, and you’re a very dishonest organization, and they should be ashamed of you.”

Collins: A lot of women, who were, are survivors of Epstein’s are unhappy with those redactions that came out. Some of them, entire witness interviews are totally blacked out. Do you think that they should be more transparent?
Trump: Well, they’re also unhappy with the fact that they thought they released too much. You know, I heard that, and you tell me something else. No, I think it’s really time for the country to get onto something else, really. You know, now that nothing came out about me, other than it was a conspiracy against me, literally, by Epstein and other people, but I think it’s time now for the country to maybe get on to something else, like healthcare or—
Collins: What would you say to people that feel like they haven’t gotten justice, Mr. President?
Trump: Something that people care about. Yeah, what did you say? Go ahead, CNN. You are so bad. You are the worst reporter. No wonder CNN has no ratings because of people like you. You know, she’s a young woman. I don’t think I’ve ever seen you smile. I’ve known you for 10 years. I don’t think I’ve ever seen a smile on your face.

They’re cold blooded, but not THAT cold.
The extremely cold temperatures hitting this winter in the northern hemisphere is affecting states where is usually much warmer, such as Florida.
There, it’s so chilly that it’s raining… iguanas.
Yes, you read it right: tens of thousands of iguanas were frozen solid by cold temperatures in the Sunshine State and begun literally dropping from trees.
The Telegraph reported:
“Florida is experiencing record low temperatures, with the mercury touching -4C in Orlando – the lowest recorded in February since at least 1923.
As a result, the cold-blooded reptiles have been immobilized and are falling to the pavement in huge numbers.”
