A gun control group that rescinded its endorsement of Jay Jones (D., Va.) last month over his text messages fantasizing about shooting a Republican colleague is now claiming to have "proudly" supported the Virginia attorney general-elect after his victory this week.

Nebraska independent Senate candidate Dan Osborn, a self-described centrist, has pledged to "stand up" for police officers and to ensure the "safety and security of our communities." One of Osborn’s first campaign hires has called to defund police departments and attended an anti-police rally in Omaha that featured severed pig heads.

Democratic candidates in Michigan who reject American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) donations over the Israel-Hamas war spoke at a fundraiser this week for an Arab-American PAC whose leader praises Hamas and called for Israeli Jews to be sent "back to Poland."

A journalist for THE CITY, New York City news nonprofit hailed as a beacon of hope for local journalism, served as an organizer for the Bronx Anti-War Coalition, a virulently anti-Israel group that held vigils for Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, raised money for the terrorist group Samidoun, and defended Elias Rodriguez's alleged assassination of two Israeli diplomats in Washington, D.C., earlier this year as "morally justified."

Everytown for Gun Safety, the gun control group funded by Michael Bloomberg and other wealthy Democrats, has quietly scrubbed its website of an endorsement of Jay Jones, the Virginia attorney general candidate who fantasized about shooting a Republican colleague.

An anti-Israel group started by two federal officials who resigned from the Biden administration over U.S. support for Israel is soliciting residents of Dearborn, Mich., a hotbed of anti-Israel and pro-Hamas sentiment, to fund its "professional lobbying force" to pressure lawmakers to vote against laws protecting Israel and Jews.

Everytown for Gun Safety, the country’s largest gun control group, has contributed $200,000 to Jay Jones’s campaign for Virginia attorney general and hailed the Democrat as an "advocate for safer communities." But now, as Jones is embroiled in scandal over text messages in which he fantasized about shooting a Republican state leader, Everytown is sitting on the sidelines.

All but four congressional Democrats voted against a GOP funding bill that would have kept the federal government open. Many of them have since lamented that millions of federal workers will not receive a paycheck until the government reopens—while still getting paid themselves. Federal law stipulates that members of Congress, unlike the troops, get paid during a shutdown. But they can opt to defer or donate their taxpayer-funded salaries, which start at $174,000 a year.

Democratic House candidate Bob Harvie (Pa.), a county commissioner in Pennsylvania, oversees a local fund that distributes millions of dollars his county received as part of a settlement with opioid manufacturers. While the money is supposed to go toward "Prevention, Treatment and Recovery" services, Harvie used some of it to transport kids as young as 14 to an "LGBTQ-youth" center that offers "medical transition" seminars.

Kamala Harris held "secret" White House meetings with "rising stars" of the Democratic Party to help boost their careers. One of her handpicked protégés was Rep. Jasmine Crockett, the Texas Democrat who mocked Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s (R.) disability, attacked Florida Rep. Byron Donalds’s (R.) interracial marriage, and smeared Charlie Kirk on the day of a memorial service for the murdered conservative activist.
