(DC Pundit) – New York City residents who were excited about the city-owned grocery stores promised by their newly elected democratic socialist Mayor Zohran Mamdani might want to get comfortable, because they are going to be waiting a very long time.

Mamdani, who swept into office on a platform heavy with progressive promises, is now delivering the kind of reality check that anyone with a basic understanding of government-run anything could have predicted from a mile away. The first new city-owned grocery store is going to cost upward of $30 million in taxpayer dollars — and won’t be ready until 2029. Three years. To build a grocery store. With other people’s money. Just think about how many hands that $30 million is going to pass through before a single can of soup hits a shelf.

There is apparently a second location planned for 2027, which will be housed in an existing building and won’t require new construction. So the bar has been set at “we found an empty building.” Inspiring stuff.

Here’s a question worth asking: how long would it take a private company, working with investors and actual financial accountability, to open a grocery store? The answer is certainly not three years and certainly not $30 million of public funds.

There’s another wrinkle worth noting. Mamdani is now saying the food at these stores will be cheaper — not free. Didn’t he campaign on the promise of free food? Funny how those bold campaign promises have a way of quietly shrinking once the election is won and someone hands you the actual budget numbers.

The people of New York City voted for this experiment in government-run commerce, and the next few years are going to deliver a very expensive, very slow-moving lesson in basic economics. Unfortunately, it’s the taxpayers who will be picking up the tab for that education.

(DC Pundit) – House Democrats, bless their hearts, continue to demonstrate that their sole legislative priority isn’t addressing the concerns of everyday Americans — it’s going after President Trump, again and again. Their latest effort is a commission to evaluate whether Trump should be removed from office under the 25th Amendment. Trump Derangement Syndrome is real, folks, and it is absolutely thriving on Capitol Hill.

The proposal is being led by New York Congressman Jamie Raskin — a man the White House has rather memorably described as “a stupid person’s idea of a smart person” — and would establish a 17-member panel to assess whether the president is mentally and physically capable of carrying out his duties. This, of course, about the same president who just won a second term in a decisive election victory. The voters apparently didn’t get the memo that he was unfit.

The bill has 50 Democratic co-sponsors and would rely on Section 4 of the 25th Amendment, which allows the vice president, Cabinet, or a body created by Congress to declare a president unable to fulfill his responsibilities. Under the proposal, the commission would conduct a medical evaluation to determine whether Trump is “mentally or physically unable to discharge the powers and duties of the office.”

Democrat Rep. Jamie Raskin is once again introducing a bill to invoke the 25th amendment to remove President Trump.

Raskin admits he already tried this in 2017 and 2020.

There’s one rather glaring problem with this entire exercise: Republicans control Congress and any action would still require approval from Vice President J.D. Vance. In other words, this legislation has roughly the same chance of succeeding as a snowball in August.

More than 85 Democrats called for Trump’s impeachment or removal following comments he made about bombing Iran, so this latest move fits right into the pattern of nonstop resistance the left has been performing since Trump first announced he was running for office on June 16, 2015.

The White House wasted no time firing back. Spokesperson Davis Ingle stated, “President Trump’s sharpness, unmatched energy, and historic accessibility stand in stark contrast to what we saw during the past four years when Democrats like Raskin intentionally covered up Joe Biden’s serious mental and physical decline from the American people.”

Hard to argue with that one.

(DC Pundit) – Nancy Pelosi, the former House Speaker and one of Washington’s most seasoned political operators, was asked a straightforward question on C-SPAN: did she or any other Democrats have advance knowledge of Eric Swalwell’s behavior? It’s a fair question, given that people across the country are now openly acknowledging that Swalwell’s conduct was something of an open secret in Democratic circles for years.

Pelosi, naturally, denied everything with the kind of practiced confidence that comes from decades of navigating Washington.

A flustered Nancy Pelosi denies that Democrats knew what Swalwell was doing and turned a blind eye:

Pelosi: “Absolutely not true."

Interviewer: "You had no idea?"

Pelosi: “None whatsoever."

Sure thing, Nance. pic.twitter.com/MmVHf3Wt3x

There’s just one problem. Former San Francisco Mayor Willie Brown — himself a longtime fixture of California Democratic politics — told a decidedly different story. Brown said he was not at all surprised by the allegations surfacing, and pointed directly to the fact that rumors had been swirling among Democratic leadership for quite some time.

“No, I’m not surprised frankly because there have been rumors after rumors after rumors, his colleague in Washington pretty much said that. That’s what Adam Schiff said, that’s what Nancy Pelosi said,” Brown stated plainly.

So according to Willie Brown, both Adam Schiff and Nancy Pelosi were aware of the rumors circulating about Swalwell. That makes Pelosi’s flat denial on C-SPAN rather difficult to square with reality. Either her memory is failing her, or she’s doing what she does best — looking straight into a camera and saying whatever is most politically convenient.

Of course, Nancy Pelosi would never lie, would she? The woman who famously tore up President Trump’s State of the Union address on live television in a fit of theatrical pettiness is now asking the public to simply take her word for it.

(DC Pundit) – Commercial truck safety isn’t exactly a topic that gets people fired up at the dinner table, but maybe it should be. A recent enforcement operation conducted by Florida Highway Patrol and partner agencies produced results alarming enough to make even the most casual commuter think twice about sharing the highway with an 80,000-pound semi-truck.

Over four days, Florida Highway Patrol and partner agencies inspected more than 3,300 commercial vehicles, ultimately pulling 176 drivers off the road entirely. Among those removed from service, 35 were arrested on criminal charges and 42 were nabbed on immigration violations.

The safety deficiencies uncovered were jaw-dropping. “The most dangerous things we see are cracked brakes and broken airlines,” Major Tom Pikul of Florida Highway Patrol explained. “If there is an air release in a brake line, they have no brakes.” No functioning brakes. On public highways. Fantastic.

Florida Department of Law Enforcement Commissioner Mark Glass flagged another deeply troubling discovery — identification problems that defy belief. “Some of the driver’s licenses that we would find wouldn’t even have a name on the CDL — literally no name,” he revealed. No name. On a commercial driver’s license.

One particularly hair-raising incident involved a driver from Uzbekistan, living in New York, who was caught weaving across lanes on Interstate 75. A breathalyzer test revealed a blood alcohol level of 0.27 — seven times the legal limit for commercial drivers — with alcohol found right in the front seat. Body camera footage showed the driver had limited English comprehension.

U.S. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy has had enough. He recently finalized a rule banning unqualified foreign drivers from obtaining commercial licenses. “For far too long, America has allowed dangerous foreign drivers to abuse our truck licensing systems — wreaking havoc on our roadways. This safety loophole ends today,” Duffy said.

Under President Trump’s administration, common sense is finally making a comeback on American highways.

(DC Pundit) – Eric Swalwell, the California Democratic congressman best known for his brief, embarrassing 2020 presidential run and his infamous encounter with a suspected Chinese spy, is now facing a crisis that makes those episodes look minor by comparison.

Las Vegas casino and timeshare mogul Stephen Cloobeck, who once affectionately called Swalwell his “little brother” and poured over $1 million into his California gubernatorial campaign, has dramatically severed all ties with the congressman and shown him the door of his lavish $26 million Beverly Hills mansion. Cloobeck is now demanding every dollar back, following explosive allegations that Swalwell sexually assaulted multiple women, including a former staffer who claims the Democrat raped her while she was too drunk to consent, according to the New York Post.

The Beverly Hills property on Roxbury Drive is no modest hideaway. The 9,700-square-foot estate features six bedrooms, seven bathrooms, a tennis court, double gates, and luxury artwork that Swalwell had been using as a backdrop for social media videos and TV interviews. Congressional records show he visited the mansion on at least 10 different days since September, missing House floor votes on at least three of those days. For context, Swalwell missed more votes in 2025 than any other active member of Congress — more than even the late Rep. Raúl Grijalva, who passed away in March. Priorities, apparently.

Cloobeck had previously spent $31,000 flying Swalwell to Nice, France, and had openly declared, “That’s my backdrop. Mi casa, su casa.” That hospitality has now come to a screeching halt.

The billionaire didn’t stop at cutting off Swalwell. He torched the entire Democratic Party, declaring, “F— the Democratic Party… I’m a libertarian now.” He followed up with, “I’m going to change my god d— party affiliation, because I cannot stand this Democratic Party at all… I am done. Finito.”

Shortly after, Swalwell suspended his California gubernatorial campaign amid mounting sexual misconduct allegations from at least four women.

(DC Pundit) – Failed presidential candidate and former Vice President Kamala Harris apparently decided that impersonating President Donald Trump was a good idea. Spoiler alert: it was not.

During a forum with the National Action Network, the organization founded by the ever-controversial Al Sharpton, Harris launched into what she seemingly believed was a devastating impression of the president, complete with a brand-new accent added to her already impressive collection.

“You know, the way that he’s thinking of foreign policy, it seems, is when he talks about America First, it’s to withdraw from these relationships and these connections,” Harris said, before really swinging for the fences. “And then he kind of acts like a mob boss. So, then he’s kind of like, ‘Oh, well, you know, you take Eastern Europe, and I’ll take the Western Hemisphere. And then you over there, you, you get Asia, and we’ll just divide it up,’ right?”

Right. Sure. That happened.

The internet, to no one’s surprise, was not impressed.

A former Republican staffer for Sen. Ted Cruz compiled her Friday performance alongside her other greatest impression hits, creating what might be the most painful highlight reel in political history.

MONTAGE: Kamala Harris just debuted a new accent: Mob Boss.

Despite a childhood in Berkeley, California and Montreal, Canada, Kamala has what she thinks is a Detroit accent, a southern accent, a French accent, and more…

Right-leaning social media personality Eric Daugherty summed up the collective reaction perfectly: “JUST IN: CRINGE.”

Harris seems to be having a difficult time accepting that her moment in the spotlight has passed. Rather than gracefully stepping off the stage, she’s out here doing mob boss impressions for Al Sharpton’s crowd. If this is her strategy for staying politically relevant, Republicans everywhere should be encouraging her to keep it up.

(DC Pundit) – Hunter Biden has apparently decided that America just isn’t doing it for him anymore. According to reporting from The Daily Mail, the former first son has quietly packed up and left the country, and to add a cherry on top of this spectacular sundae of poor life choices, he’s reportedly $17 million in debt.

One has to wonder, why doesn’t Hunter just sell a few pieces of his world-renowned artwork? Funny how that works.

The exact location of Biden’s current residence remains unconfirmed, though last March he was photographed with his wife, Melissa Cohen, in South Africa — her home country. Investigative journalist Laura Loomer previously obtained photos of Hunter, Melissa, and their young son Beau enjoying a lavish Cape Town vacation, with U.S. Secret Service agents conveniently along for the ride, all on the taxpayer’s dime.

🚨EXCLUSIVE🚨

President Trump put a swift end to that arrangement. “Hunter Biden has had Secret Service protection for an extended period of time, all paid for by the United States Taxpayer. There are as many as 18 people on this Detail, which is ridiculous!” Trump posted on Truth Social. “Because of this, South Africa has been taken off our list of Countries receiving Economic and Financial Assistance. Please be advised that, effective immediately, Hunter Biden will no longer receive Secret Service protection.”

Trump also pulled protection from Ashley Biden, who had 13 agents assigned to her.

Meanwhile, Hunter’s legal troubles continue mounting. His former law firm, Winston & Strawn, which defended him in his tax and gun crimes cases, is suing him for unpaid bills “substantially in excess of $50,000.” A court filing submitted April 6th in Washington, D.C. bluntly states, “Mr. Biden lives abroad,” and argues he simply “cannot afford” to settle his outstanding fees. Hunter himself admitted on a podcast last year that he was carrying “$17 million of debt.”

For a man once living large on the family name, things have taken quite a turn.

URGENT: CLICK TO FIGHT BACK AGAINST THE LEFT!

(DC Pundit) – It’s been a rough week in the world of conservative media, and President Trump has had just about enough of it. After a string of public broadsides from several high-profile right-leaning commentators, Trump fired back on Thursday, and he didn’t exactly reach for the diplomatic playbook.

Trump called out Candace Owens, Alex Jones, Tucker Carlson, and Megyn Kelly, labeling the group “Low IQ” and “stupid.” Strong words, but given what each of them said this week, it’s not hard to see what set him off.

Alex Jones, the Infowars host who has spent years positioning himself as a fierce Trump ally, sat down with attorney Robert Barnes this week to discuss how the 25th Amendment could be used to remove President Trump from office. Yes, really. The same man who built an empire railing against the deep state spent part of his week mapping out a path to oust the sitting president.

Candace Owens, the conservative commentator and podcast host, declared this week that she is embarrassed for having told people to vote for President Trump. That’s quite the public reversal from someone who spent years as one of his most recognizable champions.

Tucker Carlson, the former Fox News anchor turned independent media figure, reportedly urged White House staffers to resist President Trump’s orders. The man who built a massive following criticizing the establishment apparently decided this week to encourage exactly the kind of internal resistance he once condemned.

And Megyn Kelly, the veteran broadcaster and podcast host, went after Trump following this comment regarding Iran, “A whole civilization will die tonight, never to be brought back again.” What Kelly conveniently left out of her dramatic monologue is that Trump was clearly directing his warning at the terrorist leadership and radical regime running Iran, not the Iranian people themselves, many of whom have spent years risking their lives protesting against that very government.

🚨 @POTUS: "I know why Tucker Carlson, Megyn Kelly, Candace Owens, and Alex Jones have all been fighting me for years, especially by the fact that they think it is wonderful for Iran, the Number One State Sponsor of Terror, to have a Nuclear Weapon — Because they have one thing… pic.twitter.com/4ku8TSW9NN

Whatever one thinks of Trump’s policies, it’s a notable spectacle watching some of the biggest names in conservative media spend a week taking turns swinging at the president their audiences helped elect. Trump, being Trump, swung right back.
