Former Democrat Alan Dershowitz blasted the Democrat Party in a recent interview with Michael Cohen on WABCRadio.

Dershowitz is an American lawyer, former Harvard law professor, and author known for his expertise in U.S. constitutional and criminal law. He was an outspoken Democrat for many years – not any more!

Dershowitz, who admits he is proud of joining the Republican Party, did not hold back in his disdain of the dangerous and wicked Democrat Party comparing them to what we saw in 1932 Germany. Obviously, he is talking about their open hatred of Jews.

Dershowitz also labeled the Democrat Party “evil” something that we have known here at The Gateway Pundit for several years.

Alan Dershowitz:  Look, the Democratic Party is, is, is dead in the water. The problem is, uh, they may win this midterm election, and if they do, they will make it harder. And I’m a, as an old Democrat, I am trying my best to prevent the Democrats from winning the midterms. I want the Republicans to win the midterms.

I don’t want AOC to be a chairman of a department.  I don’t want Liz Warren to be the chairman of a committee. I don’t want Bernie Sanders to have more power.

The only way to do that is to vote Republican. Now, I don’t agree with everything in the Republican platform. I’m not happy with some of the policies they have, but you, you pick between the lesser of the two evils.

And, and there’s no question in my mind today, the Democrats are the evil party in America. They, they are very similar to what we saw in Germany in 1932. Some of them, not all of them. You got a person like Fetterman If he were the Democratic Party, I’d become a major contributor to the Democratic Party. But he’s not the Democratic Party anymore.

And he, in fact, said yesterday he would quit the Democratic Party. He himself, Senator from Pennsylvania, would quit if they became the anti-Israel party, which they’re becoming.

They have Trump Derangement Syndrome. Anything Trump does is wrong. Anything against Trump must be right.

That’s not in the interests of the American people. And so I’m proud of my leaving the Democratic Party. I’m proud of joining the Republicans.

The people of Chicago received hard lessons that crime and socialism have catastrophic consequences, as grocery stores are shuttering across the city.

As FOX 32 Chicago reported, seven Save-A-Lot stores on the Windy City’s South and West sides closed today. This news comes despite the stores receiving $13.5 million in city grant (taxpayer) money to stay open.

But Save A Lot previously cut ties with Yellow Banana, which operates the stores, leaving the operator with no choice.

In addition, Yellow Banana suffered a blow when CEO Joe Canfield died of a stroke at the age of 54 back in April.

Block Club Chicago also notes that Yellow Banana had a hard enough time opening the stores to begin with due to missed deadlines, protests, legal disputes, sudden closures, and scathing national headlines.

The closure of these stores will make it far harder for residents of the South and West to find fresh groceries. These are impoverished, crime-ridden areas that are already struggling with food insecurity.

Communist Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, of course, was quick to blame the federal government for the closures, citing ‘cuts’ to SNAP benefits, for example.

“You know what’s happening at the federal level? That’s what’s causing the disruption of the local market,” he said. “I’m going to continue to do my part to make these necessary investments.

“The hope is that our different leaders can come together to find a way.”

Several residents spoke to FOX 32 Chicago, expressing their exasperation at the closures and wondering where they would get their next emails.

“It’s bad, because this is the only reasonable store that we have around the neighborhoods,” one woman told the outlet.

“It (the store) just opened up, and now it’s about to close down again,” another said. “We got nothing!” I don’t know what we’re going to do.”

Other residents expressed concern about what the closures would mean for the employees of the stores, noting that they all come from similar economic backgrounds.

“The majority of the people working (at the store) are like my family,” a man said. “Another blow to the community.”

This is progressivism in action: Overpromise, waste tax dollars, watch the project fail miserably, then shrug it off.

A grand jury has indicted Hawaii Lt. Gov. Sylvia Luke (D) on charges of criminal conspiracy to commit bribery, bribery, and falsifying candidate committee reports.

The allegations stem from an interaction with local businessman and lobbyist Tobi Solidum that took place in 2022.

The indictment alleges Solidum offered Luke a $35,000 bribe in connection to a company he recommended to the state for a COVID-19 testing contract he was connected to.

Also included in the indictment were Solidum, former state representative Ryan Yamane (D), Ford Fuchigami, an official with Hawaii’s Transportation Department and Democrat political advisor, and Leo Asunción, a former official for Hawaii’s public utilities commission.

Fox News reports:

In January 2022, with his client’s contracts set to expire soon, Solidum met with Luke at a steakhouse and allegedly gave her two $5,000 checks made out to her campaign committee Friends of Sylvia Luke, according to prosecutors.

“By next week, we’ll have 35, so it will be halfway to our 70,” Solidum allegedly told Luke, promising to give her $70,000, according to the indictment.

“Oh wow,” Luke allegedly replied, adding, “That’s terrific,” according to the documents.
Luke admitted to accepting the two $5,000 checks, but denied taking more than that and also denied any money influencing her lawmaking.

“I never granted special favors to a contributor,” she said in a social media post, adding that she “prized integrity and honesty above all throughout her career.”

The following charges were handed down:

• Sylvia Luke was indicted for criminal conspiracy to commit bribery, bribery, and falsifying candidate committee reports, and bail was set at $80,000.
• Tobi Solidum was indicted for four counts of conspiracy to commit bribery and three counts of bribery, with no bail set.
• Ford Fuchigami was indicted for conspiracy to commit bribery, bribery, use of false statements and obstruction of justice, and bail was set at $80,000.
• Ryan Yamane was indicted for conspiracy to commit bribery and bribery with bail set at $150,000.
•  Leo Asunción was indicted for falsifying candidate committee reports, use of false statements, and obstruction of justice with bail set at $80,000.

Luke was planning to run for reelection as Hawaii’s Lieutenant Governor, seeking a second term in the 2026 election.

In April, however, she formally abandoned that bid, saying in a statement that she decided not to seek reelection after discussions with family and close friends.

Jesse Kelly of “The First” and Senior Communications Advisor for Truth Social, Katie Zacharia, discussed the decline of California, particularly the city of Los Angeles.

Kelly and Zacharia also talked about the deportation of illegal aliens and discussed the upcoming midterms and the possibility of losing the House and Senate to the Democrat party.

Kelly and Zacharia also discussed the potential candidates for the 2028 Presidential elections for both parties.

“Do we have a secret deportation court now? Please tell me the answer is yes,” Kelly asked.

“The answer is yes. We have had this deportation court since 1996, and it’s designated for very special circumstances when you have a terrorist who, and their family members, who, if by releasing this information public, it would put the investigation and everything around it, into jeopardy,” Zacharia said.

“There is a reason for this court. It is not arbitrary. It is actually very intentional, and it is in the best interest of the United States to keep a lot of these terrorists and the investigations surrounding them, confidential,” Zacharia continued.

“Let’s shift gears to the possible negative front, Katie. It’s well documented that Barack Obama counted rejecting people at the border as deportations,” Kelly said.

“Rejecting someone at the border is not deporting somebody,” Kelly continued.

“The numbers we want to focus on for our sake because President Trump has decisively secured our border. We have an extremely active CBP and CBP air and Marine operation,” Zacharia said.

“What we really want to focus on are the interior numbers, interior enforcement numbers which is what ICE is doing,” Zacharia continued.

“I live in California Jesse. I live in a sanctuary state and a sanctuary city. I fled Brentwood, because which is proper LA, but I fled because it became uninhabitable for many of the reasons that people are complaining about having illegal aliens in your city,” Zacharia explained.

“What is important is the midterms because I really don’t want to see Democrats take back the House of Representatives and God forbid the United States Senate, but the poll numbers do not look good for us,” Kelly said.

“We won the House, the Senate and all seven swing states, and yet, we are sitting on our hands when we have an opportunity,” Zacharia said.

“I don’t think AOC is going to be the nominee, but I’m not a nutball Democrat who votes in that primary,” Kelly said.

“They have hit a new low if AOC is their top contender,” Zacharia said.

“If it’s AOC, I think that’s a gift to the Republican party, yet again just like a similar to Kamala because we have amazing candidates across the spectrum. We have JD Vance, we have Marco Rubio, we have a potential Ron DeSantis,” Zacharia continued.

Far-left singer Katy Perry is going viral after throwing a tantrum over the Trump White House using one of her songs in a TikTok video.

As The Gateway Pundit reported, the Trump White House on Thursday shared footage of CENTCOM launching strikes against Iran for the 13th consecutive night.

On TikTok, they posted a nine-second clip of Perry’s 2010 hit song “Firework” playing in the background while Iran is getting lit up.

“Iran has been warned,” the post description reads.

WATCH:

@whitehouseIran has been warned.

After seeing the footage, a livid Perry took to X and lashed out.

“I am deeply appalled and angry to see ‘Firework’ used on the @WhiteHouse TikTok account as a backing track for video footage of military strikes,” she whined. “I did not approve this, I was not asked, and I absolutely do not condone it.”

“I wrote this song to be an anthem of hope, healing, and inner strength for people going through their darkest personal moments. To see a message of self-worth and upliftment weaponized to soundtrack destruction and violence is a complete violation of everything my song stands for.

“My music is for bringing people together, not celebrating warfare.”

Shut up lol what an entitled/elitist loser you are.

If you don’t want people “using” your music then don’t release it. Keep it to yourself, and don’t make money.

Your opinion has never been wanted, and your music is mediocre at best these days.

You should be honored they did.

You don’t even own your own music. Which makes this post even more pathetic. You’re a prisoner of the system getting mad that other ppl don’t want to be prisoners too.

I’m deeply disgusted that you released the song Watch It Burn. Is there anyway we can get that taken down off the platforms. It’s not problematic, it’s just a horrible song.
