Colorado’s 8th District Red – GOP
One Seat Away From Winning House replies
Republican Gabe Evans unseated Democrat incumbent Rep. Yadira Caraveo in Colorado’s 8th District on Sunday evening.
The GOP is now one seat away from winning the House of Representatives.
CBS News reported:
Democratic Rep. Yadira Caraveo, who represents Colorado’s 8th Congressional District, conceded her race to Republican challenger Gabe Evans on Sunday.
The congresswoman’s campaign issued a statement Sunday afternoon thanking supporters, staff and family, saying that she would finish her term.
“It’s been the honor of a lifetime to serve the people of Colorado’s 8th district. I came to Congress to get things done,
The ACLU and Campaign Legal Center lost an emergency lawsuit in the Arizona Supreme Court to extend the deadline for Arizona mail-in ballot curing as ballot counting in Kari Lake’s Arizona Senate race continues.
Ballot curing is a process that allows voters to “cure” their mail-in ballot signature if it was inconsistent with previous records.
The Gateway Pundit reported earlier that the RNC and Arizona GOP filed a response to the lawsuit arguing that the Plaintiffs’ request attempts to subvert Arizona Statute, is based on inaccurate information about the number of ballots awaiting signature verification, and that Doctrine of Latches bars the request made four days after the election.
In this episode of "The Democrat Rage Continues"...
Saturday saw another day of rage and finger-pointing among Democrats after the crushing Election Day loss delivered to Vice President Kamala Harris by now-President-elect Donald Trump.
What was primarily rage against the American people for being too "stupid" to support Harris has now morphed into an intra-party circular firing squad, replete with plenty of angry finger-pointing.
Independent Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders, who's as left-wing as they come, issued a blistering statement on Wednesday, the day after the election. Sanders not only blamed Harris' "disastrous" campaign for the historic loss; he also accused the Democrats of "abandoning working-class people."
Twenty years ago, as the world was focusing on an election in America, something happened in Amsterdam that, in many ways, was even more important.
On November 2, 2004, the Dutch filmmaker Theo van Gogh was murdered in the city center, in the morning, while bicycling to work. His killer, Mohammed Bouyeri, then 26, explained in a note stabbed into van Gogh’s stomach that van Gogh’s film Submission was guilty of “blasphemy”—it criticized Islam’s treatment of women—and he threatened that van Gogh’s colleague Ayaan Hirsi Ali, the Jews, and other nonbelievers would meet a similar end.
President-elect Trump’s promise to let Robert F. Kennedy Jr. “go wild” on health is demoralizing public health experts, who worry he could meddle with key government agencies, amplify vaccine hesitancy and direct agency funding to favor his preferred views.
Those include removing fluoride from public water, promoting a wide variety of unorthodox and unproven treatments and pushing a deep skepticism of pharmaceutical companies and the agencies overseeing them. But with Trump’s victory, Kennedy could soon be in charge of those same agencies.
“FDA’s war on public health is about to end,” Kennedy wrote on social media shortly before the election, referring to the Food and Drug Administration (FDA).
President-elect Donald Trump has tapped New York GOP Rep. Elise Stefanik for the job of US ambassador to the United Nations, according to a report.
Trump offered Stefanik the gig late Sunday, a source familiar with the assignment told CNN.
The apparent offer follows previous reports that Trump was eyeing the powerful chair of the House Republican Conference for the gig. Stefanik reportedly caught the future president’s eye with her aggressive defense of his policies. Her departure from the House would spur a special election within 90 days to fill the open upstate seat she’ll leave behind. Her replacement would likely go to another Republican, given the reliably red district she represents.
On Saturday evening, Donald Trump gave a strong signal of what his second term would be like, writing on Truth Social: “I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump Administration, which is currently in formation. I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our Country. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!” This was an unusual move that many ascribed to Trump’s personal pique against both, but there was more to it than that.
A former Israel Defense Force officer just became the first Republican elected to a state assembly seat in northern Hempstead, LI, in more than 50 years.
Daniel Norber, a 45-year-old dual US-Israeli citizen, will occupy the Nassau County seat bordering Queens that was once represented by Democratic state Comptroller Tom DiNapoli.
Norber got a big assist from President-elect Donald Trump at the top of the ticket. Trump carried the 16th Assembly District by more than 2,000 votes over Vice President Kamala Harris.
Pentagon appeals judge’s ruling that

would let 9/11 terrorists take plea and
escape death penalty replies
The US Department of Defense is challenging the decision of a military judge to reinstate three 9/11 terrorists’ plea deals that guarantee they would be spared the death penalty.
The Pentagon pledged in a Nov. 8 letter to victims’ families that it would fight to delay the guilty plea hearings.
The announcement followed a months-long back-and-forth between the DoD, the Office of Military Commissions (OMC) and attorneys for Khalid Sheikh Mohammed — the accused architect of the al Qaeda attacks — and two alleged co-conspirators, Walid Muhammad Salih Mubarak Bin Attash and Mustafa Ahmed Adam al Hawsawi.
As my colleague Streiff reported Friday, the success of President-elect Donald Trump’s agenda may be on the line Wednesday because that’s when the Senate decides on the next GOP Leader after Mitch McConnell (Kentucky) finally stepped down. The competition between the three leading contenders—John Cornyn (Texas), Rick Scott (Florida), and Minority Whip John Thune (South Dakota)—has been fierce, with Thune saying that Trump should let the Senate decide and not put his thumb on the scale.
Maybe it’s just me, but I would ask, did Thune just win almost 75 million votes and earn a resounding mandate from the American people?
Former President Barack Obama's plan to keep the Democratic Party in power failed, and the coup of President Joe Biden from the 2024 race, which Obama helped orchestrate, backfired. Now, he's concerned that he might have dug his own grave.
Obama's biographer revealed the former president's top concern following President-elect Donald Trump's win after playing a significant role in Biden's ousting and Harris' downfall.
Obama "has been and remains extremely concerned and nervous about his historical legacy," says David Garrow, author of the 2017 biography Rising Star: The Making of Barack Obama.
"That has certainly taken a big hit with Trump once again triumphing," he continued.

I’m still processing the election and its aftermath. Herewith a few additional observations.
• I was told that if I voted for Trump, dozens of celebrities and Hollywood potentates would leave the country. But none seem to be leaving. Which just goes to show that pragmatism doesn’t work.
• The Atlantic, which told us that Trump is literally Hitler (they literally said that), is not taking it well. They are especially mad at Twitter/X:
X has always had a nazi problem. . . Heaps of unfiltered posts that plainly celebrate racism, anti-Semitism, and outright Nazism are easily accessible and possibly even promoted by the site’s algorithms. All the while, Elon Musk—a far-right activist
Wicked movie merchandising turned into a nightmare for Mattel over the weekend as news broke that a web address listed on the packaging for character dolls took consumers to an adult pornographic site.
The toy company apologized later on Sunday. “Mattel was made aware of a misprint on the packaging of the Mattel Wicked collection dolls, primarily sold in the U.S., which intended to direct consumers to the official WickedMovie.com landing page,” read a statement. “We deeply regret this unfortunate error and are taking immediate action to remedy this. Parents are advised that the misprinted, incorrect website is not appropriate for children.
If things hadn't worked out as they did on Tuesday, with Democrat pollsters calling this presidential race too close to call Donald Trump could have lost the election because of the government's bad math. Was that bad math on purpose? Was it part of the #Resistance? Good questions. Let's look at the evidence.
The Heritage Foundation's go-to elections savant Hans von Spakovsky discovered a "shocking" anomaly in 2020 Census Bureau numbers. Worse, the anomalous numbers were revealed in the "corrected" government follow-up report two years later, in 2022. Those math errors occurred in 14 states, the majority considered to be red states.
CNN host Fareed Zakaria offered a blistering takedown of the Democratic Party on Sunday, days after former President Donald Trump swept the seven battleground states and won the popular vote to secure a second White House term.
The GPS host told his audience that there was no singular reason why Vice President Kamala Harris and down-ballot Democrats performed so poorly.
He categorized the election results as a reaction from an electorate that had grown tired of Democratic policies and the party’s messaging. He said Democrats misread the room on everything from diversity to their handling of immigration to a sentiment Trump was being persecuted by politically motivated criminal trials and proceedings.
Vice President-elect JD Vance — who is the first Marine to become vice president — on Sunday wished his fellow devil dogs Happy 249th Birthday of the United States Marine Corps.
“Happy Birthday to my fellow Marines! 249 years and counting!” he posted on X. (X) Vance, 40, served as an enlisted combat correspondent in the Marine Corps from 2003 t0 2007. He left the Corps as an E-5. He deployed to Iraq for six months, and was awarded the Marine Corps Good Conduct Medal, Navy and Marine Corps Achievement Medal, Iraq Campaign Medal, Sea Service Deployment Ribbon, Global War on Terrorism, and the National Defense Service Medal.
Former communications director for Vice President Kamala Harris, Jamal Simmons, surprised a CNN panel Sunday by suggesting President Biden step down to allow Harris to serve as the first female president. Joe Biden’s been a phenomenal president, he’s lived up to so many of the promises he’s made. There’s one promise left that he could fulfill, being a transitional figure," Simmons said on CNN’s "State of the Union." "He could resign the presidency in the next 30 days, make Kamala Harris President of the United States—"
NBC National Political Correspondent Steve Kornacki said Sunday that President-elect Donald Trump “made some giant strides” in the popular vote because he attracted a “more diverse” coalition for the Republican Party.
Trump defeated Vice President Kamala Harris, securing the 270 electoral votes necessary to win the presidency early Wednesday morning. Kornacki outlined Republican gains among Hispanics, young voters and black voters in the election while on “Meet the Press,” hosted by Kristen Welker.
President Joe Biden was spotted battling with the sand near his home in Delaware over the weekend as First Lady Jill Biden was slammed for not helping him.
The 81-year-old was seen struggling to make his way down Gordons Pond Trail in Rehoboth Beach near his home on Sunday as he took a walk.
Biden nearly faceplanted as he shuffled nervously over the hazardous terrain and appeared to nearly lose his footing completely, while his wife remained surefooted.
New Jersey firefighters are still battling nine intense wildfires that have left a teenager dead and the region blanketed in a thick fog of smoke — although Mother Nature’s overnight rains might help quell the blazes.
The massive deadly fire in rural West Milford near the New York border was the largest that still raged Sunday, while smoke-eaters seemed to be getting a handle on suburban blazes in Passaic County’s Pompton Lakes and Englewood Cliffs in Bergen County, reports said.
The West Milford blaze — which began near Greenwood Lake — has consumed several thousand acres in New York and New Jersey and is the most widespread
A mentally ill man who raged online against Republicans and Christians, repeating extreme leftist rhetoric against them, just murdered his wife, kids, and ex-partner before committing suicide.
Anthony Nephew, a Minnesota resident with a history of suicidal tendencies, was found dead this week. And before he shot himself, he also shot and killed his wife and 7-year-old son, as well as his former partner and their 15-year-old son, who had been shot multiple times, according to The UK Daily Mail. The outlet indicated that a contributing factor in the motive for Nephew’s heinous crime could’ve been his ridiculous but consuming fear of living in a real-life Handmaid’s Tale
He won it bigly.
President-elect Donald Trump has nabbed the highest raw count of the popular vote of any Republican presidential hopeful ever, according to projections of the 2024 election.
As of Sunday morning, Trump clinched 74,650,000 popular votes, eclipsing his prior record of 74,224,000 votes in the 2020 election, per the Associated Press.
At the moment, that puts the incoming president ahead of Vice President Kamala Harris’ 70.9 million votes — though there is still a large swath of votes uncounted, including in California which has an estimated 66% of the vote tabulated.
Other states, including Alaska, Arizona, Maryland, Oregon and Utah still have outstanding votes.
Your correspondent has reviewed a memo labelled “For Internal Distribution Only” from the CEO of the company that owns and operates the skiing operations at Aspen and Snowmass (referred to locally as “SkiCo”).
It’s a doozy.
Everyone knows that Aspen is rich and liberal. The billionaires crowded out the millionaires decades ago. What passes for “thinking” by think-tanks like the Aspen Institute is the notion that “balance” means hard-leftists like Madeline Albright and Jonathan Capehart on one side and soft-leftists like David Brooks and Liz Cheney on the other.
It has been a real eye-opener to watch the left go from smug confidence that Kamala was preordained to be the 47th president of the United States to the depth of despair as Donald Trump racked up 312 electoral votes and a popular vote victory to become the first president since Grover Cleveland to be elected to non-consecutive terms.
This is just a snapshot of the changes. ee Ward Clark's Anatomy of a Blowout: Major Shifts in the Electorate – RedState for more examples.
So, what caused this seismic shift? A sane person would say that the Democrats suffered from a spectacularly horrible candidate, a repulsive agenda for America, or both.
SpaceX CEO Elon Musk on Sunday endorsed lawmaker Rick Scott for Senate majority leader, joining a growing list of MAGA figures who are throwing their support behind the Florida Republican.
"Rick Scott for Senate Majority Leader!" Musk wrote in a post on X Sunday afternoon, days after Republicans won back control of the Senate on Election Day.
Musk’s post came in response to a post from Scott, who was responding to President-elect Trump’s demand that "Any Republican Senator seeking the coveted LEADERSHIP position in the United States Senate must agree to Recess Appointments (in the Senate!), without which we will not be able
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is not allowing Senator-elect Dave McCormick of Pennsylvania to attend Senate orientation in the coming week, pointing to outstanding ballots in the state, even though the race has already been called.
Two sources with knowledge confirmed to Fox News Digital that McCormick was not invited to orientation, despite having been projected by the Associated Press to win the Pennsylvania Senate race.
When reached by Fox News Digital, a Schumer spokesperson said in a statement, "With over 100,000 ballots left to be counted in Pennsylvania, the race has not been decided.
President-elect Donald Trump held his first post-election call with Russian leader Vladimir Putin last week and warned him against ramping up in Ukraine, a new report says.
The incoming president took note of US military power in Europe while seeking to discourage the Kremlin dictator from intensifying Russia’s war in Ukraine during the Thursday chat, sources told the Washington Post. Trump also expressed interest in a follow-up talk, the outlet said.
The day before, on Wednesday, Trump, 78, spoke with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky on the phone as well, though details of their conversation were not known other than Trump assuring
Joe Biden on Sunday was asked if Trump is ‘still a threat to Democracy’ as he stepped out in Delaware.
Biden headed back to Delaware for the weekend for another vacation.
He has now spent 560 days — 40.3% of his presidency — on vacation.
WATCH: (X Video) Joe Biden’s answer when asked if Trump is ‘still a threat to Democracy’ proves the Democrats and their media stenographers were lying the whole time “Is Trump still a ‘threat to democracy’?” a reporter shouted at Biden.
“I’m gonna see him on Wednesday,” Biden said.
So it was a lie this whole time and they knew it.
This is a terribly funny encapsulation video outlining the effective cultural war combat strategy of the 2024 MAGA movement.
Warning – The video has some salty language but is put together brilliantly to highlight what took place in the final months of the election.
I have shared before my research into the election coalition that took place, specifically as it relates to two generations: Gen-X and Gen-Z. The data from the election shows that Gen-X was easily the largest voting block this cycle, they simply turned up like never before. In the background of the social media war, Gen-X trained, tooled and empowered the Gen-Z energy,
Less than 24 hours after Donald Trump was elected the 47th president of the United States, social media users began pushing two conflicting narratives to suggest election fraud.
One revived false claims by Trump that the 2020 vote was stolen from him and the other questioned how Vice President Kamala Harris could have received so many fewer votes in 2024 than President Joe Biden in 2020.
Both narratives hinge on a supposed 20 million vote gap between Harris and Biden.
Democratic National Convention Finance Committee member and Harris campaign surrogate Lindy Li revealed the moment she began realizing Vice President Kamala Harris would not defeat President-elect Donald Trump— and why she believes President Joe Biden played a part in her loss. During an appearance on "Fox and Friends Weekend," Li started strong, accusing Biden of endorsing Harris for president just to sink the Democratic Party's chances of securing the election. She suggested that Biden only did so to get revenge against the party for pushing him out of the race.
The Democrat Party lacked the support of a significant percentage of Gen Z women in the recent presidential election.
Forty percent of women under 30 years old voted for now President-Elect Donald Trump, the Daily Mail reported on Sunday, citing Associated Press (AP) exit polling.“Trump’s huge rally with young women helped secure the largest portion of voters under 30 than any Republican candidate since 2008,” the article said.
Vice President Kamala Harris (D) tried to win their votes with her appearance on the Call Her Daddy podcast and endorsements from celebrities such as Taylor Swift and Beyoncé. However, her efforts were not enough.
Los Angeles County voters have chosen to pass Measure A, which will raise sales taxes by a quarter of a percent to fund homeless services.
The referendum, which seemed in doubt until recently, passed with 57% support.
CalMatters.org reported (original emphasis):
Measure A, which is leading in the ballots counted thus far, would end the county’s existing quarter-cent sales tax for homelessness that was scheduled to expire in 2027 and replace it with a half-cent tax that would begin immediately and continue in perpetuity. That new tax is expected to raise $1 billion a year, and since it has no sunset,
John Hinckley Jr., the man who attempted to assassinate President Ronald Reagan in 1981, has been so inundated with requests to do something similar to Donald Trump that he felt compelled to address the situation on social media.
How far gone do you have to be to try and enlist a former attempted assassin to take out the new President-elect — and he's telling you to get a grip? Hinckley's comments indicate enough of an onslaught of requests that it needed to be mentioned.
And it's incredibly troublesome considering Democrat rhetoric over the past several months has already led to two attempts on Trump's life

Writing for The Scroll, Tablet‘s Substack, Park MacDougald has quickly established himself as one of my favorite columnists. On the day before the election Park drew attention to the January 17, 2017 transcript of “Remarks by the president in roundtable with progressive journalists.” At the time “the president” was still Barack Obama.
Hans Mahncke and Jeff Carlson note that the transcript was dredged up in 2022 via the Freedom of Information Act but only posted lo, these many years later. Mahncke and Carlson write about it in “Obama Fueled Russia Collusion Lies in Secret White House Meeting” at Truth Over News.
Voters in Washington State have approved a referendum known as Initiative 2066, which would block state and local authorities from limiting access to natural gas stoves and appliances, which environmental groups have tried to do.
The Seattle Times reported:
Washington voters approved Initiative 2066, a measure that explicitly protects access to natural gas in Washington, and also weakens building codes that make it more difficult and costly to add natural gas heating in new construction. The initiative marks a moment when the state, long known for its progressive climate policies, has taken a step in the other direction. It throws a wrench
Strategic Affairs Minister Ron Dermer secretly visited Russia last week, Army Radio reported Sunday, in what appeared to be part of Israel’s efforts to reach a ceasefire in Lebanon where it is battling the terror group Hezbollah.
Dermer’s office said that it had no comment on the report.
Dermer then flew to Washington on Saturday night for talks with US officials, the Ynet outlet reported.
Russia is a major player in Syria, and its cooperation in a diplomatic arrangement to end fighting between Israel and Hezbollah could be an important piece of a deal that keeps the Iran-backed group from rearming.

Even those of us who were appalled by Kamala Harris’s campaign, the ever more embarrassing interviews during which she could not answer the simplest of questions unless they were what she ate for breakfast, did not realize that employing celebrity endorsers cost millions of dollars. Most of us probably assumed that those who graced her rally stages or interviewed her for television or podcasts did so because they actually supported her.
One person was killed and several other wounded in a mass shooting at Tuskegee University’s homecoming Saturday night, as videos captured hail of gunfire ringing out across the Alabama HBCU.
Gunfire erupted on Tuskegee University’s campus as the streets were filled with students, alumni and community members celebrating the school’s 100th homecoming.
Videos shared on social media show rapid-fire shots ringing out as terrified attendees hide crouched on the ground behind cars.

The victim was identified as a “non-university individual,” the university told The Post.

REPOST BY REQUEST: I say gently, don’t look for President Trump to expend valuable political capital on this.
Senator John Thune has been groomed by Mitch McConnell to be his replacement for decades. Thune’s ascension to the role of Senate Majority Leader was, maybe is, essentially a foregone conclusion.
Senator Thune will carry the full support of roughly 15-to-20 senate DeceptiCons (deceptive conservatives), and perhaps a dozen more squishy ones in the middle who want great committee positions. The important dynamic that comes into play is Senate Committee Chairman “leverage” for Donald Trump’s nominees.

This past week was not a good one for Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), who was Vice President Kamala Harris' running mate. Not only did the Harris-Walz ticket lose the 2024 presidential election, but they won Minnesota by less than President Joe Biden did in 2020, and it looks like Walz will have lost the Democratic trifecta for the state legislature. His speech on Friday in Minnesota has people talking and calling him out for the supposed me"I think sometimes we can be quick to judge people who don't agree with us, to assume that they act out of cruelty or fear or self-interest.
Four days after Election Day 2024, a winner has finally been projected in the Arizona senate race.

As of 10:35 p.m. on Saturday night, with 88% of precincts reporting, Gallego had 49.7% of the vote, compared to Lake's 48.2%. Independent Eduardo Quintana, who is a member of the Green Party, earned 2.1%.
How Badly Harris Lost and Why

Donald Trump appears to have been the first Republican in 20 years to win the popular vote.
Scouring the internet, the only Democrat figure who seems to be smiling is President Joe Biden. For the others it seems to be a time of mourning. A look at the results, their implications, and the machinations of the federal bureaucracy is in order.
The very best wrapup is by Victor Davis Hanson.
Harris-Walz were not the only losers: There were the media which gave him 95% negative coverage and the pollsters:
The polls -- with the exception once again of AltasIntel, Trafalgar, and Rasmussen -- were off, and way off in the Senate races.
In the late 1940s, Supreme Court Justice Hugo L. Black, in the case of Everson v. United States, took a quote from a letter written by Thomas Jefferson out of context and insisted that the wall of separation between church and state “should be high and impregnable.”
Despite some variability, this position became the basis for the Court’s interpretation of the separation of church and state which led to the banning of prayer and Bible reading in the public schools at the beginning of the 1960s.
Separation of church and state means (1) that taxes should not be used to support an official national church (denomination) of Christianity,
The cast of Saturday Night Live wasted no time in unveiling a new 'hot jacked Trump' character while claiming their sudden allegiance to the president-elect.
Donald Trump was declared the victor by a landslide by Fox News early Wednesday after going head to head with Vice President Kamala Harris in the historical election.

Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) supported Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) to be the Senate Majority Leader after Republicans secured a majority in the Senate in Tuesday’s election and took control.
In a post on X, Hagerty acknowledged that President-elect Donald Trump’s “massive coattails delivered a historic Republican Senate majority.” Hagerty noted that “any leader” in the new Republican majority would need to be able to “work hand-in-hand” with Trump, and added that he would be voting for Scott for the position.
Hamas should not be permitted to play any role in the Gaza Strip after the war. This would allow the terror group to rearm and regroup and prepare for another October 7-style attack on Israel.
By negotiating with Hamas about the future of the Gaza Strip, Abbas is legitimizing the Iran-backed terror group and sending a message to the Palestinians and the rest of the world that he sees no problem with dealing with murderers and terrorists who committed the most horrific crimes... As we have seen most recently in the Chinese Communist Party, Iran and Afghanistan, negotiating with terrorists and their equivalents simply does not work.
Since the election, we’ve witnessed countless videos of average leftists shrieking and crying because their preferred candidate lost. At the upper echelons of the leftist class, multimillionaire talking heads accuse voters (including blacks and Hispanics) of being racist and misogynistic haters. Whoopi Goldberg, one of the solons on The View, called America’s grocers “pigs.” Joe Scarborough had no idea how much butter cost—or at least the cost of the butter on which the elites dine. Looking at this level of venom and delusion, it’s clear that the Democrats have morphed into the Hapsburgs, for they are ideologically inbred and deeply out of touch.
Eddie Glaude had a total meltdown on MSNBC. He couldn’t accept that the American people voted for someone who would end their economic suffering. There are many reasons why Kamala Harris wasn’t going to win, to say nothing that she couldn’t articulate a single policy issue. The merry-go-round of failed attacks was astounding during her 108-day stint as the 2024 Democratic nominee. And yet, Glaude still thinks it’s racism, despite Trump gaining among young voters, blacks, and especially Hispanics. In four years, Catholic voters became more racist, while white women under 30 saw an 11-point swing to Trump. Is Chicago now a bastion of Nazism, Mr. Glaude?
No, you don’t have to be gracious or magnanimous to Democrats right now. Wear your MAGA gear. Shout Trump 2024. We won; they lost. Show no mercy, for you shall receive none. There is no way the liberal mind would have been gracious to us if Kamala had won. They’re too self-righteous and arrogant. Those who are condescending aren’t known for this, and a video made by a retired professor demonstrates why you don’t need to be nice to liberals in the aftermath of this MAGA landslide.

The cast of Saturday Night Live cheekily pledged their allegiance to President-elect Donald Trump and claimed they all voted for him in the first cold open since Tuesday’s historic election.
The skit began with cast members solemnly discussing how Trump’s win over Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris would be “shocking” and “horrifying” for many of the liberal-leaning show’s viewers.
They then said that Trump might seek “vengeance” against political opponents, leading long-time cast member Kenan Thompson to say, “We at SNL would like to say to Donald Trump, we have been with you all along.”
