Survey Says Most Won’t Vote For Democratic Socialist Wackos

By William Teach July 31, 2026 – 10:30 am

But, when election time comes, will they?

Most say they wouldn’t back democratic socialist presidential candidate: Survey

Most Americans say they wouldn’t support a democratic socialist presidential candidate, according to a new poll.

In The Washington Post/Ipsos poll, 55 percent of respondents said they wouldn’t “consider” casting their ballot for a self-identified democratic socialist presidential candidate, while 39 percent said the opposite and 6 percent did not respond.

Democratic socialists have recently stepped into the national spotlight with notable primary wins in places such as New York and Colorado. One win was that of New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani last year against former New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo in the Democratic mayoral primary. Mamdani has now become one of the most prominent Democrats in the country.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.), another prominent democratic socialist, is one of a few names being discussed as a possible 2028 presidential contender.

Sadly, the poll doesn’t have any toplines or distinction between parties/political belief, it simply asks the question of voting and breaks between those 3 answers.

A follow up question asks about the DSA wackos influence on the Dem party, with 30% saying too much influence, 15% too little, 15% just right, and 41% not sure. It would be fantastic to see how Democrats and Independents feel about these questions. The DSA crap seems to work well in hardcore Dem run cities, at least for the moment, but, will that continue?

Some Wisconsin Democrats claim they’ll vote Republican if democratic socialist Francesca Hong wins primary

Wisconsin voter Ian Anderson couldn’t have been happier to cast his ballot Tuesday for democratic socialist Francesca Hong in the swing state’s primary for governor.

“She’s exactly the burst of energy we need,” Anderson said after voting early in the liberal stronghold of Madison.

But 80 miles down the road in Milwaukee, Democratic voter Steve Wiesner said if Hong wins the Aug. 11 primary he will vote Republican for the first time in his life.

“I would never support her or any DSA candidate at this point,” Wiesner said, using the acronym for Democratic Socialists of America. He voted for long-shot candidate Joel Brennan.

But a chaotic primary, and the rise of Hong, has amplified angst among voters and party insiders that Democrats may be squandering their chances to retain control of the governor’s office and flip both chambers of the Legislature to earn full control of Wisconsin state government for the first time since 2010.

How much of her rise was driven by the wacko extreme of the Dem party, which is now colliding with the reality that the average Democrat voter may have TDS, but, aren’t interested in the Socialist wacko agenda?

LA Advances Climate Plan To Spread The Slush Money Around

By William Teach July 31, 2026 – 7:15 am

Supposedly, this will keep LA residents cool, but, mostly it’s just another way to spread taxpayer money around to friends and Comrades

Mayor Bass Advances Climate Action Plan with Heat Resilience Investments for Vulnerable Angelenos

electric vehicleMayor Karen Bass July 27 announced a milestone in implementing her climate action plan with the installation of 1,066 energy-efficient air conditioning units for residents living at Housing Authority of the City of Los Angeles or HACLA properties.

The announcement was made at Nickerson Gardens, where Mayor Bass was joined by Congresswoman Maxine Waters, leaders from HACLA and LADWP, and residents, underscoring the city’s commitment to climate resilience and environmental justice.

The investment demonstrates how the city’s climate action plan is delivering tangible benefits for Angelenos by helping residents adapt to increasingly frequent and severe heat, reducing household energy costs, improving energy efficiency, and expanding access to energy-efficient housing improvements and climate resilience investments in communities disproportionately impacted by pollution and climate change.

The project is part of the city’s heat mitigation home improvement program or HMHIP, launched to help protect residents from increasingly frequent and severe heat by improving energy efficiency and indoor comfort in vulnerable communities. Through a partnership between the Mayor’s Office, HACLA, and LADWP, the program upgrades public housing communities while helping residents maintain safe indoor temperatures during extreme heat. The program leverages rebates available through LADWP’s Cool LA initiative to purchase energy-efficient air conditioning units in bulk, reducing costs and accelerating installation across HACLA properties.

That’s a lot of groups who will siphon the money before it gets anywhere. What do you think, 70% disappears?

Wackos Raskin And Jaypal Demand NICE Wear Body Cams

By William Teach July 31, 2026 – 7:00 am

Why? Because it hasn’t worked out for the far left narrative in terms of regular cops wearing body cams

Ranking Members Raskin, Jayapal Demand ICE Agents Wear Functional Body Cameras

Today, Rep. Jamie Raskin, Ranking Member of the House Judiciary Committee, and Rep. Pramila Jayapal, Ranking Member of the Subcommittee on Immigration Integrity, Security, and Enforcement, sent a letter demanding that U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) immediately equip all agents interacting with the public with fully functional body-worn cameras. The demand follows a disturbing pattern of deadly immigration enforcement operations carried out without basic accountability measures in place.

“We have watched in horror as Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials shot over two dozen people and killed six of them, including three U.S. citizens, during immigration enforcement operations since President Donald Trump took office in January 2025.1 In shooting after shooting, we are told that there is no body-worn camera footage of the incident and asked to accept DHS’s account of the incident. Time and again, that account turns out to be a blatant falsehood. It is time for DHS to use the $210 billion that congressional Republicans have given the agency to ensure that every DHS officer is equipped with a fully functioning body-worn camera when conducting immigration enforcement,” wrote the Ranking Members.

Despite repeated DHS promises, body-worn cameras remain absent—or nonfunctional—when they matter most. After ICE agents killed U.S. citizens Renée Good and Alex Pretti in Minneapolis earlier this year, DHS pledged rapid nationwide deployment. Nearly six months later, that promise remains unmet.

Blah blah blah. ICE is already assigning body cams to officers, but, it takes time. And once they all have them, it is going to look bad for the Democrat wackos like Raskin and Jaypal. Meanwhile

Ruling in Tacoma immigration case means thousands could get bond hearings

A federal appeals court ruled Thursday that a class of immigrants detained within the United States is not subject to mandatory detention, rebuffing both a Trump administration policy and the Tacoma Immigration Court’s practice of denying bond hearings to many people held at the Northwest ICE Processing Center.

In a published 2-1 decision, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit affirmed a prior ruling from Tacoma-based U.S. District Court Judge Tiffany Cartwright. Cartwright found the Tacoma Immigration Court was unlawfully denying people the chance to be released on bond to fight their deportation cases in the community, where some have lived for years.

At best, the only place this ruling would apply would be the Western District of Washington, due to the SCOTUS ruling on nationwide injunctions. And then there’s the one about courts not having the authority to interfere with federal immigration policy. So, this is another ruling that is heading to the Supreme Court.

Jim Hansen Could Totally Be Right About 2026 Heating

By William Teach July 30, 2026 – 3:00 pm

This is the same Jim Hansen who has been wrong on most things climate, including the West Side of NYC being underwater

Why Hansen may end up being right about 2026

Jim Hansen and I have spent much of this year making seemingly opposite predictions about where 2026 will end up in the global temperature record books. He has argued since the spring that 2026 will be the warmest year on record; I have made the case that it is more likely than not to end up in second place. And in a recent post he framed our disagreement in memorably equine terms:

Based on this scientific evidence, we expect that when the horse race comes down the stretch, in November and December of this year, we will be riding a thoroughbred, a strong young horse, and Zeke will be atop a fading old nag.

For the record, I am the fading old nag in this metaphor. I have been called worse.

But here is the fun part: when the race comes down the final stretch at the end of 2026, there is a good chance we will both be declared winners. Hansen’s prediction is about NASA’s GISTEMP record specifically. Mine is about the average across the major surface temperature datasets. And when I run my own forecast model separately on each of six datasets, it gives GISTEMP a ~65% chance of a new 2026 record even as the multi-dataset average only has a ~32% chance and is likely to come in second place.

But, here’s the fun part: Hansen started making his prognostication in April 2026. Why do Warmists always wait till things are happening to make their predictions? Or, make them 50-100 years out? If Hansen and Zeke Hausfather wanted to make predictions they should have done it before the end of 2025.

And, really, no matter what, the cult will make sure that 2026 is the Warmest Evah!!!!, forgetting all about being a big El Nino year.

Rand Paul Looks To Hold Vote Finding Fauci In Contempt

By William Teach July 30, 2026 – 10:30 am

Whelp, good luck with this. There’s a reason I put it that way

Sen. Rand Paul: Congress Will Vote on Holding Fauci in Contempt After He Invoked Fifth Amendment Over 100 Times

Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY), Chairman of the Senate Committee on Homeland Security and Governmental Affairs, said there will be a panel vote to hold Anthony Fauci in contempt after the former National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID) refused to answer any question during his testimony on Wednesday, instead repeatedly invoking the Fifth Amendment.

“That’s a vote that will happen in committee next week. It will be in contempt of Congress,” Paul told reporters after the hearing, which featured Fauci refusing to answer one question from lawmakers.

“We believe that with his… immunity from criminal liability, that he didn’t need to hide behind the Fifth Amendment and that maybe the Fifth Amendment doesn’t attach when you have a pardon in place,” Paul explained, noting it will be a legal question.

“That’ll be a legal question, but the question on contempt will be voted on, and then there’s a question of whether or not the Department of Justice will take that up,” he added.

There are 8 Republicans on the committee, 7 Democrats. None of the Republicans are the Squishes, so, Paul can probably get the panel vote to hold Fauci in contempt, possibly with John Fetterman voting in favor. The full Senate, though? Too many Squishes. Thom Tillis, Mitch McConnell, Susan Collins, and Lisa Murkowski will surely vote against it, just because they are Squishes. Again, Fetterman will possibly join Republicans.

Other lawmakers on the committee also pointed out that Fauci, whom former President Joe Biden pardoned, had nothing to hide.

“Let’s just get one thing straight: You don’t have any rights under the Fifth Amendment because you’ve been pardoned, as you very well know, as the Supreme Court has been clear for a century and more,” Sen. Josh Hawley (R-MO) said. “Brown vs. Walker, 1896. When he has been pardoned, he may not stand upon his privilege. You know that, your lawyers sitting behind you now shifting nervously in their chairs, they know it.”

Let’s be honest: even if he is found in contempt by the Senate, nothing will happen. Nothing. We’re over six years beyond the visible start of COVID, and, who has been held liable? Who has been fired? Lost their pension?

(AP) A former senior adviser to Dr. Anthony Fauci was indicted on federal charges alleging he conspired to hide his communications related to COVID-19 research as the pandemic raged across the country, the Justice Department said Tuesday.

Dr. David Morens, 78, is accused of using his private email account to intentionally circumvent public records laws while employed at the National Institutes of Health. The Justice Department alleges that he concealed or destroyed records of discussions related to COVID-19 research grants, including an effort to revive a controversial coronavirus grant.

Just indicted. Most of the Science!!!! folks, Credentialed Media, and politicians suffered no repercussions for their COVID insanity. Did the people of Michigan boot Gretchen Whitmer for things like extreme lockdowns, even telling stores they can’t sell seeds for the garden, all while her husband tried to get their boat of of drydock? No. She won re-election. Same with most of the others with strict lockdowns, who also seemed to be marching in the streets in large groups during the George Floyd madness. Around the world few politicians paid the price. Mostly just Trump in 2020 and Jacinda Arden, PM of New Zealand, who was forced out in 2023.

(Fox News) Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, is calling for Anthony Fauci to be held in contempt, prosecuted for perjury and sent to jail after the former White House COVID-19 advisor pleaded his Fifth Amendment right more than 100 times during a Senate hearing Wednesday.

“Years from now, they’ll look back and say, ‘What collective madness overtook this country?’” Cruz told Fox News Digital.

“I think Anthony Fauci has had contempt for Congress and contempt for the American people for decades,” he said. “His diary shows that he deliberately lied to the American people over and over and over again.”

It’s 2026. Nothing will happen. The time to do something was years ago when the lies and BS and crackdowns and stuff was fresh. And I have zero trust that the GOP will do anything, because they really never do. If the situations were reversed the Democrats would have already prosecuted Fauci and tons of other people. If the Dems win the House this Fall they will be holding TDS impeachment hearings by no later than day 3 of the new term, even if they don’t hold the Senate. Going after all sorts of Trump admin members immediately. They do not play. Republicans haven’t figured out this game this century.

Cruz and Fauci have had a longstanding feud, similar to his relationships with other GOP senators like Paul, over Fauci’s handling of the outbreak and claims he was dishonest about the origins of COVID-19 to both Congress and the American people.

“In his diary, he wrote early on that it was clear that the COVID virus did not come from the wet market in Wuhan, and then he turned around and said exactly the opposite thing on national television,” Cruz said.

Everyone who perpetuated the COVID fraud and lockdowns and everything that went along with it will get away with it, both in the US and internationally, just like they have from the get go. It’s sad.

PRNY Mandates Climate (scam) Eduction From K-12

By William Teach July 30, 2026 – 7:15 am

“Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted”

From Kindergarten to College, New York Is Rethinking Climate Education

Five years ago, a UNESCO study of educational policies in 100 countries revealed that nearly half neglected to mention climate change. Even worse, only 23% of teachers felt able to properly address climate action in their classrooms. Yet, in a 2022 study published by the international organization the following year, students overwhelmingly expressed concerns about the way climate change was being—or not being—taught, especially since 70% of those surveyed said they didn’t feel they could explain what it is. Among their demands: to understand the human role in nature and how to take concrete actions to protect it; to learn through experiential and reflective ways of learning about sustainability and climate; for diverse aspects of climate change to be taught across subjects; and understand how climate change affects their particular geographic area as well as the world at large. (snip)

This past March, the New York State Board of Regents approved a statewide climate education mandate, placing climate education as an instructional requirement across all content areas, from kindergarten to grade 12. After a phasing-in period, all schools will have to submit verification to the state that as students move through grades K-4, 5-8 and 9-12, they’ve had some sort of climate education instruction that teaches the causes, impacts and solutions to climate change.

“They allow a lot of flexibility in terms of how it can be implemented, so it could either be through embedded instruction, which can be infused into required courses and subject areas, like science, math, social studies, etc.,” says Emily Fano, director of climate education at the National Wildlife Federation, who helped make this requirement a reality. “Or teachers can create a standalone course. It’s all about what schools have time for and what teachers have time to prep. It really also depends on how informed principals and superintendents are.”

Start them early, when they do not really know what’s going on, and they can be fully indoctrinated by the time they can vote.

Good News: Federal Agents Arresting Illegals At Airports

By William Teach July 30, 2026 – 7:00 am

This has given the Credentialed Media a case of the sads

Reports of airport immigration arrests come amid increased TSA-ICE collaboration, sources say

Recent reports of immigration arrests at U.S. airports, some of them captured in videos that have gone viral, stem from increased collaboration between the Transportation Security Administration and Immigration and Customs Enforcement, ICE sources tell CBS News.

TSA has been sharing more information about noncitizen travelers with ICE, including on immigrants who lack criminal records but are suspected of civil immigration violations, like overstaying their visas, the sources say.

TSA agents are increasingly giving ICE “tips” or “leads” so that agency can arrest, detain and process for deportation individuals who are deemed deportable by the federal government. (snip)

Previously, ICE sources told CBS News, TSA and ICE worked closely together, but mainly on lower-profile and noncontroversial investigations and arrests involving federal criminal offenses or public safety concerns, like drug smuggling and human trafficking.

Now, the two federal agencies are collaborating more broadly on civil immigration enforcement. In May 2025, TSA and ICE signed an agreement to boost information sharing between the two agencies, according to a memo disclosed this week by the group American Oversight.

Isn’t this the way it’s supposed to work, with federal law enforcement agencies sharing data on law breakers?

One of the ICE sources said that people traveling at airports are “easy targets” who immigration agents can arrest in secured locations and while having information about their cases in advance. The source noted that doing immigration enforcement at airports is a relatively straightforward way to boost arrest levels, at a time when the White House has been pressuring ICE to record 2,000 daily arrests.

No guns, no knives, almost nothing that can be used to assault federal agents with. Illegals should really not be emboldened to simply travel around the U.S.

Surprise: Scientists Say Earth’s Population Needs To Be Cut In Half

By William Teach July 29, 2026 – 3:00 pm

Usually it’s just the climate cult/ecoloons in fringe publications who say this, or on Twitter or Facebook or something. Now we have something in a real news outlet from a big “science” outlet pushing this insanity

Scientists say we need to HALVE Earth’s population to just 4 billion to save the planet

It might sound like the evil plan of a nefarious villain, but scientists now say that we need to halve Earth’s population to save the planet.

Over the last 100 years, the world’s population has ballooned from less than two billion to 8.3 billion people.

However, researchers say our planet cannot sustain this explosive growth for much longer.

Now, in a proposal that will remind movie fans of Thanos’ plot in Avengers: Infinity War, scientists argue that the population needs to be ‘eased’ down to four billion by 2200.

However, rather than the instant destruction envisioned in that blockbuster hit, the scientists say that this could be managed as a gradual decline.

I suggest that the Warmists/ecoloons start with themselves

If the global population could be reduced in the next 200 years, this could help ease humanity’s burden on the environment and ensure there are enough resources to go round.

In their paper, published in the journal Sustainable Development, the researchers write: ‘Easing to a smaller and sustainable population would not deprive additional billions of life but instead ensure that when they do arrive conditions will be good.’

Have at it, nuts. No kids for you, make sure to off yourselves to save the planet. Especially the scientists involved

Conservative estimates suggest that the world’s population could hit 11.4 billion by 2100, leading to dire consequences.

Based on current trends, this would create a world with ‘nearly double the current CO2 emissions, energy and pesticide use, and quadrupled plastics waste’.

It’s a cult.
