Democrats have amped up the hyperbole to stratospheric levels and thrown the rhetorical kitchen sink at redistricting effort in Texas.

Here is a compilation of the most outlandish and provocative comments they’ve managed to concoct.

Thread 🧵

1 Jamie Raskin: "Democracy and freedom are at stake" because of redistricting in Texas.

2 Eric Holder: Redistricting in Texas could lead to the 2028 presidential elections not being certified.

🚨NEW: Victor Davis Hanson presents a powerful breakdown of the Civil War raging in the Democrat Party.

As the Old Guard continues to endure withering pressure from the New Radicals, and a stream of incumbents bow out —

Where does it go from here?

THREAD 🧵

1⃣ THE OLD GUARD: ON ITS LAST LEGS

Hanson begins by drawing a sharp picture of the decrepit Old Guard — The “Biden generation” — falling apart before our eyes:

“There was some news lately that Senator Dick Durbin from Illinois, he was the author, remember, of the Dream act. He was a hardcore liberal. You could even say he was left of center. He's stepping down. He's in the 70s and there's a changing of the guard.”

“Chuck Schumer in some polls is running, I cannot believe it, behind AOC for his upcoming senatorial bid by 20 points and more in a primary. And then as sort of a force multiplier of this, I just saw Nancy Pelosi. She was at a public event. I think she's 85, turning 86. She was as incoherent as Joe Biden.”

So what's Victor trying to say? He lays it out: The Old Guard is TERRIFIED:

“We're watching a changing of the guard, both due to aging. And we see that with Joe Biden and the Biden generation is over with and Nancy Pelosi and then the next cohort in their 70s, the Septa generations, they're terrified. Dick Durbin is terrified of being primaried. And so is Chuck Schumer. He took the dignified way out.”

“Chuck Schumer will probably fight to the very end and be humiliated by AOC.”

2⃣ THE NEW RADICALS RISE

Next up, Hanson starts to dig into the radical faction that is mounting hostile takeover of the party power structure:

“Who are these people? Well, the squad remember traditionally was Ilhan Omar, the Somalian who allegedly had married her brother to gain citizenship, access to the United States. There was Ayanna Pressley. She was the radical African American congresswoman. We had, of course, AOC was a prominent member.”

“And, we have also, in addition to Rashid Talib, she was a member of the squad. She was the Michigan kind of pro Hamas congresswoman. Then we had the DNC and we had Ken Martin won the DNC chairmanship. He's very much to the left and really to the left is his subordinate, David Hogg, the vice chairman.”

“He was a survivor of the parkland shooting, remember, in 2018. And he transmogrified into a gun anti second amendment. But then he got even more and more and more radical. I don't think he's ever really done anything except raise money. But here's my point…”

Here, Hanson nails the bottom line. We are watching a real time transformation of the party:

“We're watching a metamorphosis of the Democratic Party that is out of power.”

🔥Stephen Miller put on a blistering performance outside the White House today —

— blasting Sanctuary State Governors, the Biden administration and of course, a very hostile media.

Miller showed why he’s Trump’s most savvy communicator — AGAIN.

🧵5 KEY MOMENTS: THREAD 🧵

1 🔥“We are not going to ask taxpayers to subsidize the presence of a single illegal alien in this country.”

A “reporter” parroted a leftwing talking point about why the admin should “deport mother with young kids.”

He regretted it.

This exchange shows why legacy media NPC’s are no match for Miller. Ever.

Miller: Do you yourself have an opinion on the subject?

Miller: Let's say he released 10 million aliens into the country over the last four years. What percentage do you think we should let stay here of those 10 million?

Reporter: “I'm not trying to do a game show, but I'm saying if you think that's the best use of the dollars.”

Miller: Is it your view that if a Democrat president releases 10, 15, 20 million into the country, they all then should get to stay forever and for all of life?

Reporter: Stephen, I don't have a view about what Democratic presidents do. I'm asking what the Republican president.

Miller: So how come you don't want to answer the question? Because you know the answer is obvious. Everyone that Biden live in has to go home. Of course, it's a crazy thing to even ask.

ICE is going to continue to focus on raids against high threat criminal aliens.

We're going to use the entire force and power of the federal government to get them all. How many will choose also to leave voluntarily and take advantage of the CBP? Homan. But we are not going to ask taxpayers to subsidize the presence of a single illegal alien in this country.

2🔥"They all have blood on their hands.”

Miller did NOT hold back on the Biden administration and its congressional enablers like Hakeem Jeffries and Chris Murphy for the havoc and destruction unleashed on America by open borders:

“Of course, the Biden administration does, but also all of their enablers do. Right? All of the radical left immigration groups and attorneys and NGOs who aided and abetted and supported the invasion.”

“All the Democrat politicians in Congress, like Hakeem Jeffries, who better than supported the invasion, and Chris Murphy and everyone in the media who knowingly lied and covered up about that invasion for four years.”

“They all share in the atrocity, in the calamity. They all have blood on their hands.”

“They won’t be getting forgiveness from me, I can promise you.”

The word has gone out: "CHAOS!"

They do this over and over again, and somehow expect people not to notice.

"Joy!"

“In this moment.”

Gavin Newsom's new podcast is a shiny propaganda project designed to rebrand him as a "Common Sense Democrat” for 2028 — but there’s one small problem:

His own radical record.

Dismantling Newsom’s “Moderate” Rebrand:

🧵THREAD🧵

2⃣REBRAND LAUNCH

The propaganda project designed to position Newsom for a presidential run in 2028 kicked off with him dipping his toe in the water of common sense — by attempting to get on the 80 side of an 80/20 issue: Men playing in women’s sports.

Legacy media predictably heralded this move as a “Remarkable Shift” — not an opportunistic flip-flop, which is exactly what it is.

A 2014 tweet from Newsom celebrated a law that required schools to allow boys to compete in girls’ sports in California.

Newsom hasn’t suddenly seen the light — he’s simply seen the polling.

3⃣NEWSOM’S CORE BELIEFS: ENTIRELY FLEXIBLE

Newsom’s far-left roots don’t stop him from bending to any political stance or ideological twist needed to grab—and hold—power. As he puts it:

There’s “this mask you live in that you become.”

LEFT, OCT 2024: As the election neared, KJP assured Americans that no FEMA funds were being diverted to Illegals.

RIGHT, TODAY: Elon exposes that FEMA still sending taxpayer dollars to illegals — just LAST WEEK having sent $59M to illegals for luxury hotels.

More lies.
