The Democrats have a huge political opening. With President Trump under fire from all directions — including some in his own party — it’s a rare chance for the opposition to put some points on the board. And who are the most prominent Dems right now? One is Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez . The other is Zohran Mamdani . AOC is uber-liberal, and the New York mayoral candidate is a self-proclaimed democratic socialist. Many party office-holders, not to mention media and political analysts, say the Democrats’ biggest problem is having lurched too far to the left. A fixation on pronouns, transgender sports and Palestinian rights.  Does that sound like where most of America is in the fall of 2025? There are plenty of clickbait headlines out there about AOC weighing a presidential race. But what Axios’ Alex Thompson, who had the scoop, actually reported is that she’s considering a White House run or a Senate race, against Chuck Schumer . So not much has changed. AOC, now in her ...

After a nearly weeklong suspension from ABC, Jimmy Kimmel returned to the air Tuesday with a 30-minute monologue addressing the controversial comments that led to his ouster and accusing the Trump administration of hypocrisy on free speech. The late-night host questioned whether it was acceptable for the government to regulate "which podcasts the cellphone companies and Wi-Fi providers are allowed to let you download to make sure they serve the public interest." Kimmel said such an idea would have been unfathomable in the United States – a land that prides itself on its long tradition of free speech – even just 10 years ago.  He took particular aim at FCC Chairman Brendan Carr over comments Carr made last week during an interview on the conservative podcast "The Benny Show," hosted by Benny Johnson. RAND PAUL SLAMS FCC COMMISSIONER'S 'ABSOLUTELY INAPPROPRIATE' JIMMY KIMMEL COMMENTS Carr told Johnson there were potential "avenues" the FCC...

President Donald Trump slammed ABC and late-night host Jimmy Kimmel in a Truth Social post Tuesday night, questioning the network’s decision-making after it opted to keep Kimmel on the air. "I can’t believe ABC Fake News gave Jimmy Kimmel his job back," Trump wrote. "The White House was told by ABC that his show was canceled! Something happened between then and now because his audience is GONE, and his ‘talent’ was never there." Kimmel’s attempt to criticize reactions to Charlie Kirk’s assassination triggered his suspension. Even after ABC/Disney executives reinstated the show with statements emphasizing sensitivity, major affiliates such as Nexstar and Sinclair announced they would not air the program unless their demands were met. CHARLIE KIRK ALLY RESPONDS TO DISNEY'S DECISION TO LIFT JIMMY KIMMEL'S SUSPENSION "Sinclair also calls upon Mr. Kimmel to issue a direct apology to the Kirk family. Furthermore, we ask Mr. Kimmel to make a meaningful ...

"Jimmy Kimmel Live!" host Jimmy Kimmel insisted that he never intended to make light of Charlie Kirk's assassination in comments that led to his show's suspension. Tuesday night was the first show Kimmel hosted since Disney announced its return on Monday after nearly a week off the air. Kimmel came out to a standing ovation which continued into chants of "Jimmy! Jimmy! Jimmy!" and ongoing cheering. "If you are just joining us, we are preempting your regularly scheduled encore episode of 'Celebrity Family Feud,' we’re bringing you this special report," Kimmel opened. "I’m happy to be here with you tonight."  WHY ABC BRINGS BACK JIMMY KIMMEL TODAY AFTER ITS DEBACLE OVER FREE SPEECH He went on to thank his fellow late-night talk show hosts, including Stephen Colbert, Jon Stewart and David Letterman, along with right-leaning critics like Clay Travis and Sen. Ted Cruz, R-Texas, for showing some support for him during his suspens...

Democrat Adelita Grijalva has won a special election in battleground Arizona, securing the congressional seat left vacant by her father’s death and further eroding Republicans’ razor-thin House majority. The Associated Press reports that Grijalva, a former Pima County supervisor, defeated business owner and contractor Daniel Butierez, the Republican nominee, in Tuesday's election in southern Arizona's 7th Congressional District . Grijalva will serve the remaining 15 months of the term of Raul Grijalva, who died in March following complications from cancer treatment. TRUMP NOT ON BALLOT BUT FRONT-AND-CENTER IN 2025 ELECTIONS The younger Grijalva's victory was anything but a surprise in the left-leaning district. Democrats enjoy a nearly two-to-one voter registration advantage over Republicans in the Hispanic-majority district, which stretches from Yuma to Tucson and includes almost the entire length of the state's border with Mexico. HEAD HERE FOR FOX NEWS' 2025...

Former Vice President Kamala Harris broke her silence on the chaos following former President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of the 2024 race just three and a half months before Election Day. Harris previewed her upcoming book "107 Days" with MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow Monday night describing Biden’s move as "recklessness" and admits she has regrets about not pushing him harder to reconsider. "So when I write this, it’s because I realize that I have and had a certain responsibility that I should have followed through on," Harris told Maddow. "So when I talk about the recklessness, as much as anything, I’m talking about myself. There was so much at stake, and at the time I worried it would come off as being completely self-serving." KAMALA HARRIS REVEALS WHAT BIDEN TOLD HER JUST BEFORE CRUCIAL DEBATE WITH TRUMP THAT LEFT HER 'ANGRY' The comments marked the first time Harris has publicly admitted doubts about how she handled the politica...
