JUST MY OPINION
Virginia had been turning blue for a very long time, pushed by the northern suburbs that are actually part of the corrupt DC swamp. The most affluent counties in the country are located there. I get the sense that after tens of millions of dollars, some of the filthiest tactics imaginable, and finally getting a win after a series of stinging defeats, they will consider this validation for their non-stop assault on President Trump and everything he stands for. Their bed partners, the Enslaved Press have spearheaded the attacks ever since election day last year. They will continue the ham-handed beatdown of all that is right with this country. The GOP better take notice.
Democrats End Losing Streak
Ralph Northam holds on to become Virginia’s next governor
The win comes after a long string of defeats for Democrats that followed their crushing losses last November, when Republicans maintained control of both chambers of Congress and took the presidency.
The win further solidifies Virginia as a blue state: Democrats there have now won two straight gubernatorial elections, carried the state in three straight presidential elections, and have held both the state’s Senate seats since 2009. In 2016, failed Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton carried Virginia by five points.
For Gillespie, this is the second defeat in a statewide Virginia election in just three years—he unsuccessfully challenged incumbent Democratic Sen. Mark Warner in 2014, losing by a small margin.
Democrat Phil Murphy Wins New Jersey Governor’s Race
Democratic candidate Phil Murphy beat Lt. Gov. Kim Guadagno (R.) on Tuesday night in the race to replace term-limited Gov. Chris Christie (R.).
Murphy morphed from a Goldman Sachs executive to a diehard progressive, campaigning for a $15 minimum wage, the legalization of marijuana, and standing against President Donald Trump, the New York Times reports.
In his pitch, Murphy told voters that New Jersey is “broken” and needs higher taxes on the wealthy.

New Jersey winner: Victory sends a message to Trump
New Jersey’s next governor, Democrat Phil Murphy, says his party’s victory sends a message to President Donald Trump that the county is “better” than his politics of division.
Northam said in his victory speech that the eyes of the nation were on Virginia on Election Tuesday.
“Virginia has told us to end the divisiveness, that we do not condone hatred and bigotry,” he added. “In Virginia, it is going to take a doctor to heal our differences. I’m here to let you know the doctor is in. And this doctor will be on call the next four years.”
Northam also praised the state’s growing diversity and said he would work to make the state more inclusive. “Our lights will be on, our doors will be open,” he said.

De Blasio Wins Another 4 Years As NYC Mayor
During the campaign, other major progressive figures threw their weight behind de Blasio. Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders endorsed him as candidate, as well as Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer.
“Everything that Mayor de Blasio is trying to do is exactly the opposite of what Donald Trump is trying to do,” Sanders said previously. “This mayor is leading the city in a way to bring us together.”

National Donations Help Transgender Win Statehouse Race in Virginia
Transgender activists spent $60 per vote in Virginia to defeat conservative Delegate Bob Marshall.
Danica Roem, a man living as a woman, got 10,800 votes in Manassas Park City and Prince William County after spending more than $600,000 in direct donations — mostly from transgender political groups — and getting plenty of support from local media. Thirteen-term Marshall’s campaign was largely ignored by business donors, such as the local Chamber of Commerce. The lack of funding made it difficult for Marshall to highlight Roem’s radical agenda, which includes pushing the transgender ideology in kindergartens

Laura Ingraham on Ed Gillespie: If You Try to Be Half-In Half-Out with Trump – You End Up Political Road Kill
Laura Ingraham hammered Ed Gillespie after his loss Tuesday in the Virginia gubernatorial race.
Gillespie tried to play both sides of the GOP pro-Trump and Party elite — And lost… BIGLY.
Laura Ingraham: Remember last night, what did I say? My book, “Billionaire at the Barricades Populist Revolution from Reagan to Trump,” I made this point really consistently that there is no middle ground with conservative populism. That is the wave of the future. That there is no constituency for open borders, open markets, and endless military interventionalism.
Dem Wins in Virginia, New Jersey: Not a Repudiation of Trump, but a Warning
Pundits are calling Tuesday’s results a repudiation of Trump. That is more than a stretch: it is flatly contradicted by some of the data. Republican Jill Vogel, running for Lieutenant Governor in Virginia, hitched herself to Trump and out-performed the GOP establishment candidate at the top of the ticket, Ed Gillespie, by tens of thousands of votes.
It would be more accurate to point out that, once again, the Republican establishment came up short. Someone in the Gillespie campaign actually thought it would be a good idea to campaign with Condoleezza Rice — who, for all her merits, is a relic of the George W. Bush administration. Gillespie belatedly embraced Trump supporters, but it seems clear from local results that there were more than a few conservatives who were reluctant to be seduced. A late conversion might have been possible for another candidate, but not one who had already run and lost statewide.

Democrat ‘Not Excited’ to Vote Northam: ‘Purely a Vote for the Democratic Party’
NeverTrump ‘Republicans’ Gloat over Democrat Victory in Virginia
The small but vocal contingent of “NeverTrump” Republicans — those who swore never to vote for Donald Trump in the 2016 election, even if that meant handing the country to Hillary Clinton and the Democrats — were exuberant Tuesday night, as Republican gubernatorial candidates went down to defeat in New Jersey and Virginia.
It was the first “victory” for NeverTrump, who cast Tuesday’s result as a vindication of their warnings about Trump.

“Crooked Media” podcast host and former senior political correspondent for MTV News Ana Marie Cox recalled how some of her friends worried about their future.
What was Fox thinking agreeing to run his ad in the first place, let alone running it during “Fox & Friends,” POTUS’s favorite show? Steyer must have paid them a small fortune to make it worth their while, knowing how Trump himself and Fox’s extremely pro-Trump audience would react.
But expelling Menendez — even if he is convicted of a felony — might not be that easy.
My colleagues right now are doing a moment of silence in the House of Representatives chambers. I respect their right to do that, and I myself have participated in many of them.
IF YOU READ ONLY ONE ARTICLE, MAKE IT THIS ONE
A few days old but no less shocking with the passage of time.
In a few hours, the polls will open in Virginia. Democratic candidate Ralph Northam, the lieutenant governor of the state, is in a tight race with Republican Ed Gillespie. This shouldn’t have been a big issue for Democrats. Incumbent Democratic Gov. Terry McAuliffe is popular. It’s the only southern state that Hillary Clinton won. It’s trending bluish—and Donald Trump is not popular here. And yet, here we are—one of the most critical races of the year, though some Virginia voters probably don’t even know that tomorrow is Election Day.
Virginia Republican lieutenant gubernatorial candidate Jill Vogel told Matthew Boyle, Breitbart News’s Washington political editor, on Breitbart News Saturday SiriusXM Patriot Channel 125 that Tuesday’s Virginia election “will define the future of Virginia for a generation.”
Virginia Democrat gubernatorial candidate Ralph Northam’s campaign experienced many setbacks during his race for Virginia governor against Republican candidate Ed Gillespie.
With statewide elections on Tuesday in Virginia and New Jersey, the PBS NewsHour week-in-review segment strangely focused on Democrats for a change. Liberal analyst Mark Shields shocked PBS anchor Judy Woodruff by saying if Virginia’s Democratic candidate for governor, Ralph Northam, can’t defeat Republican Ed Gillespie with his alleged Trump baggage, there will be hell to pay:
Gillespie, communications ace, former lobbyist, and senior aide to President George W. Bush, will find out Tuesday if Virginia voters will send a Reagan conservative to the Virginia governor’s mansion in the era of Donald Trump.
In her forthcoming book, former DNC chair Donna Brazile absolutely unloads on her party, blasting Barack Obama for decimating the DNC’s finances, savaging the leadership of Debbie Wasserman Schultz, and confirming that yes, Hillary Clinton’s campaign had the party in its pocket long before she was its nominee.
The Ice Cube In Heels would do anything to get elected and felt entitled to the Democratic nomination and the presidency.
The reason the networks wanted to keep Brazile’s findings secret was simple: They didn’t want to ruin their narrative that Clinton was a pure angel who was a victim of Donald Trump and Russian collusion. But in recent weeks, it had come out that Clinton had the DNC in her pocket and they both were funneling money to Fusion GPS and Christopher Steele so they could work with Russian agents to get dirt on Donald Trump.
On October 31st, 2016. with just days to go until election day, David Corn of Mother Jones broke the story of a ‘veteran spy’ who gave the FBI information on Trump’s alleged connections to Russia. Christopher Steele, British spy and author of the garbage dossier. was not named in this Mother Jones report. Only hints of the dossier were published; the salacious claims were omitted.
After being caught red handed this week by the House Intelligence Committee of being behind the funding that produced the infamous Fusion GPS Russian dossier on Donald Trump, two time failed presidential candidate Hillary Clinton is claiming she knew nothing about the payments or the existence of the dossier at all. Further, she’s using Barack Obama’s excuse of “I learned about it through news reports.”
The Democratic National Committee is washing its hands of new reports that it, along with the Hillary Clinton campaign, funded research for the infamous dossier that tied Donald Trump to the Kremlin during the 2016 presidential election.
While Hillary Clinton has been in Europe promoting her new book, What Happened, the heavily fortified wall of protection around her is crumbling. The potentially damaging testimony could lead to formal criminal charges against Hillary Clinton. Fox News Legal Analyst Greg Jarrett said that Clinton could be charged with “racketeering for using her charity as a criminal enterprise.” Not surprisingly, Clinton maintained that all of the accusations are “baloney.”
Clinton team and media go into overdrive to hide real Russian collusion scandal. The Clinton team is ramping up its old war room tricks to deal with what is emerging as its own real Russian collusion scandal.
I’m telling you. If any colluding was taking place, it was between the Obama Administration, the DNC and cooperative Russian actors.
Republicans were eager to question her about an infamous tarmac meeting with former President Bill Clinton in June 2016, a meeting which has triggered suspicions about the Obama Department of Justice’s impartiality toward Democratic candidate Hillary Clinton at the height of the election.
To hear Democrats and the mainstream media tell it this week, it doesn’t matter that the Clinton campaign and Democratic National Committee paid for the infamous Trump dossier.
With barely a month to go before Virginians choose their next governor, lieutenant governor, and attorney general, all three Democratic candidates maintain statistically significant leads over their Republican rivals, according to a Wason Center survey of likely voters. At the top of the ticket, current Democratic Lieutenant Governor Ralph Northam leads former Republican National Committee Chair Ed Gillespie, 49% to 42%, with Libertarian Cliff Hyra taking 3% of the vote and another 6% still undecided.
I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT NORTHAM, BUT I’M WILLING TO BET HE’S A REPTILE WHO CRAWLS ON HIS BELLY, LIKE MOST DEMOCRATS.
IF I NEVER SAW THIS HEAP OF RANCID PUS AGAIN IT WOULD BE TOO SOON
EVEN THOUGH SCOTUS RULED AGAINST HIM TIME AND AGAIN, THE DAMAGE WAS DONE. COMPANIES SPENT BILLIONS TO RETROFIT THEIR FACILITIES TO CONFORM WITH THE ILLEGAL REGULATIONS. DEMOCRATS SAY THEY CAN’T AFFORD TO UNDO THE CHANGES BECAUSE THERE WOULD BE MORE COST INVOLVED.
Chris Cox, executive director of the National Rifle Association’s Institute for Legislative Action, accused Hillary Clinton of “hypocrisy” for her stance on gun control and criticism of the NRA, telling “Fox News Sunday” that Clinton “will never spend a moment … without armed security” or “live in a high crime area.”
‘She continues to cling to office as a voice for the status quo’
THERE IS A REASON WHY HE HAD ALL HIS RECORDS SEALED BY COURT ORDER BEFORE HE STARTED HIS POLITICAL ACT. PEOPLE WOULD REALIZE HE WAS GIVEN A PASS SOLELY BECAUSE OF HIS RACE. HE WAS FAR TOO LAZY TO APPLY HIMSELF, THAT WAS FOR OTHER, LESS GIFTED PEOPLE TO DO.
“FEED THEY FAMILY”… THAT’S A DIRECT QUOTE. I USE STREET SLANG ON OCCASION TO MOCK THE CULTURE
University of Oregon President Michael Schill was supposed to deliver a speech last week about a $50 million dollar gift to the school. Before he could even take the stage, the event was taken over by student protesters.
PEOPLE WHO RULE BY BRUTE FORCE ONLY UNDERSTAND BRUTE FORCE
This is grotesquely brazen. Because it’s so transparently obvious what Harvey Weinstein is saying here: “Guys, I’m a liberal, I’m going to go after the NRA, I’m going to make a movie that’s about how terrible Trump is, I’m giving money to liberal causes, whaddaya say about maybe giving me a pass here, huh?”
