Whining

Arrested by ICE.

 The new young Democrats coming in, they said actually something very similar to what Obama said," Fox News contributor and political commentator Brett Cooper told "America’s Newsroom" on Tuesday.

"They said it's time to start actually having solutions and to stop whining about what Republicans are doing and actually try to compete with them."

There are a slew of young Democratic hopefuls looking to unseat older lawmakers. 25-year-old social media influencer and progressive activist Deja Foxx is among those young candidates with a chance at claiming a House seat.

Man

 

The Democratic party not sure where to go or what to do. So they go after ICE. Sending some congressmen or women to the detention center or walk with illegal immigrants out of court sessions thinking that they are protecting some illegals.  That didn't help. The Congress team, some got arrested, etc. That was referred to as theater from some Democrats.

Before that the party opposed DOGE. As if to protect the tremendous waste in many of government programs. Then the Tariffs...

So what can a party do differently to show that they are much better at this time?

  Just a thought.

Palmer..

 

Yes, Cole Palmer is being referred to as Chelsea's "golden boy" following his outstanding performance at the Club World Cup. He won the Golden Ball award for the tournament's best player, including scoring two goals in the final against PSG. This recognition solidifies his status as a key player for Chelsea, with many already hailing him as a potential club legend. 

Skirting..

 

Incumbent Big Apple Mayor Eric Adams demanded Columbia University release Zohran Mamdani’s admission records in which the Democratic socialist candidate identified as Asian and African American — before he became a US citizen.

In another portion of the application — which was ultimately rejected — that allowed him to elaborate on his identity, Mamdani clarified that he was Ugandan.

Adams was appalled by Mamdani’s actions, especially for skirting around the system in “an insult to every student who got into college the right way.”

That's only the beginning.

Yessica..

A HORSE clinic receptionist is accused of grand theft after being accidentally overpaid $400,000 in veterinarian checks.

Yessica Arrua, 29, from Wellington, Florida, was arrested after allegedly keeping the cash and spending more than half on shopping and transfers to her family.

She allegedly did not report the overpayment to the clinic, instead spending the money at stores like Coach, Michael Kors, furniture shops and restaurants, according to the report.

It added that thousands of dollars were sent through Zelle to a person nicknamed “Mama Dukes”, while $80,000 was used to buy a food truck for a friend of her mother’s.

Cuts..

Democrats are banking on backlash to Republicans’ Medicaid cuts to boost them in next year's midterms. There's just one problem: The cuts haven't happened yet.

Republicans delayed work requirements until 2027 and financing changes until 2028. They also frontloaded their One Big Beautiful Bill Act with tax breaks that voters are likely to see sooner.

“If we say ‘they took it from you,’ but it hasn’t happened yet, it just complicates it,” said California-based Democratic strategist Doug Herman.

That’s leaving some Democrats concerned that their Medicaid-focused messaging might not hit home before November 2026 and blunt their efforts to use the backlash to President Donald Trump’s signature legislative achievement to fuel a Democratic wave next year.

But Democrats are still forging ahead with making Republicans’ Medicaid reductions a central theme of their midterms messaging.

Five..

As Zohran Mamdani mulls staffing up as New York City mayor, the Democratic nominee has an obvious starting point: people from the administration of former Mayor Bill de Blasio, who swept into City Hall a decade ago with a singular focus on economic inequality are interested.

There's a lot of people from my administration who'd be excited to work for him if he was mayor,” de Blasio told POLITICO. “We credentialed a whole generation of progressives to be ready to serve in senior positions in city government. So, I do think he's got a pretty deep bench to draw on.”

Mamdani if succeeds, the assemblymember's challenge of filling top positions will be made even more daunting by the fact that the 33-year-old with no direct city government experience has only managed a staff of five before the campaign and lacks the rolodex — or iPhone contacts — of many of his predecessors.

Free..

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) contended that the Democratic Party ought to take notes from the campaign of mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani, suggesting a key aspect of his campaign could be the strategy to win back voters.

Mamdani, a socialist who won the Democratic Party’s primary in the 2025 New York City mayoral election, has dodged condemning the phrase “globalize the intifada” or threats to arrest Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. 

When Khanna was asked if Mamdani’s issues are welcome in the Democratic Party, the lawmaker argued Mamdani won his primary due to his “laser-focus on affordability.”

 Promising to freeze the rent will end up with less investment, less opportunities, less repair, and less improvement, etc...

Chaos..

 

Border Czar Tom Homan made it clear that the Trump administration will follow through with its plan with or without Mamdani’s cooperation.

“We’re going to be in New York City,” Homan told the press. “And President Trump said it two weeks ago. We’re going to double down, triple down, in sanctuary cities. Why? Not because they’re a blue city or blue state, because we know that’s where the problem is. 

We know they’re releasing public safety threats and national security threats to the streets every day because they don’t honor our detainers. We know that. 

We don’t have that problem like in Florida, where every sheriff in the state’s working with us. So where are we gonna send our assets? We’re gonna send them where the problem is sanctuary cities.”

Ineffective..

A recent CBS News/YouGov poll has thrown the Democratic Party into turmoil, revealing a significant disconnect between leaders and voters. With the 2026 midterms looming, the findings serve as a wake-up call for a party grappling with its identity and effectiveness.

The survey, conducted in June among 2,428 adults, indicates that a staggering 71 percent of voters believe the Democratic Party has been ineffective in standing up to Trump. This sentiment resonates even more broadly, with an alarming 78 percent of Americans expressing similar dissatisfaction. 

The implications of these statistics cannot be overstated: They highlight a crisis of confidence within the party that has failed to recapture the enthusiasm of its base since the 2024 election debacle, which saw Democrats cede ground to Republicans in almost all states except for two.
