We all have them. Well, maybe not Rhamell Burke, who showed no remorse in court on Saturday after being charged with second-degree murder after pushing a 76-year-old retired teacher down a set of New York City subway stairs and killing him. Burke, who's been arrested four times since February, was all smiles, according to The New York Post:]]>Sat, 09 May 2026 21:00:37 -0400<![CDATA[Brett T.]]><![CDATA[Crime]]><![CDATA[New York]]><![CDATA[Woke]]>https://twitchy.com/brettt/2026/05/09/woman-who-refused-to-work-with-prosecutors-didnt-want-to-send-another-black-man-to-jail-n2428033<![CDATA[As our own Grateful Calvin reported earlier on Saturday, David Axelrod interviewed Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez at the University of Chicago on Friday night, where she made the outrageous claim that "the American Revolution was against the billionaires of their time." Axelrod also asked AOC about 2028, and she replied that her aspirations were bigger than becoming president. A presidential term is temporary, while single-payer health care, a living wage, and women's rights are permanent.]]>Sat, 09 May 2026 19:00:31 -0400<![CDATA[Brett T.]]><![CDATA[2028 Elections]]><![CDATA[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]]><![CDATA[Democrat Party]]><![CDATA[Socialism]]>https://twitchy.com/brettt/2026/05/09/mehdi-hasan-aocs-superpower-in-2028-is-convincing-republicans-shes-dumb-and-extreme-n2428035<![CDATA[The person in Virginia having the worst week ever this week is clearly Senate Leader, marijuana dealer, and possible Medicaid fraudster L.

The Virginia Supreme Court struck down the ridiculous 10-1 redistricting of Virginia, ruling that the procedure to arrive at the new map was unconstitutional.

Democrats were still celebrating their new 10-1 district advantage (from a 6-5 one) when the court ruled that the procedures used to get it were unconstitutional. Bummer, $65 million in Democrat Party cash wasted with nothing to show for it. Virginia Democrats hastily filed an appeal with the U.S. Supreme Court.

In her haste to call Republicans ‘racists’ for eliminating genuinely racist race-based congressional districts, AOC failed to acknowledge that the racially-drawn and black-majority 9th congressional district has elected white Democrat Steve Cohen over black Democrat and Republican opponents for almost 20 years. With redrawn maps, black Memphians could soon have a black representative. But to the horror of Democrats, she'll be a Republican.]]>Sat, 09 May 2026 03:58:00 -0400<![CDATA[Warren Squire]]><![CDATA[Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez]]><![CDATA[Congress]]><![CDATA[Democrat Party]]><![CDATA[Gerrymandering]]><![CDATA[House of Representatives]]><![CDATA[Republican Party]]><![CDATA[Tennessee]]>https://twitchy.com/warren-squire/2026/05/09/aoc-black-representation-wiped-out-in-tennessee-n2428017<![CDATA[Hasan Piker is at it again.]]>Fri, 08 May 2026 22:39:27 -0400<![CDATA[justmindy]]><![CDATA[Communism]]><![CDATA[Redistricting]]><![CDATA[Ted Cruz]]><![CDATA[Virginia]]>https://twitchy.com/justmindy/2026/05/08/hasan-piker-jfk-quote-n2428020<![CDATA[The last few months have been an interesting turn of events in Virginia politics.&nbsp;]]>Fri, 08 May 2026 21:31:22 -0400<![CDATA[Doug P.]]>https://twitchy.com/dougp/2026/05/08/ted-cruz-needed-2-words-to-finish-off-the-months-long-feud-with-triggered-va-state-sen-louise-lucas-n2428018<![CDATA[Apparently, America is getting its people off the 'Hantavirus' ship and then they are shipping them straight to Nebraska.]]>Fri, 08 May 2026 19:00:10 -0400<![CDATA[justmindy]]><![CDATA[Nebraska]]><![CDATA[Spain]]><![CDATA[USA]]>https://twitchy.com/justmindy/2026/05/08/hantavirus-headed-to-nebraska-n2428013<![CDATA[Oh, Matty has his panties in a bunch.]]>Fri, 08 May 2026 18:00:21 -0400<![CDATA[justmindy]]><![CDATA[2026 Elections]]><![CDATA[Democrat Party]]><![CDATA[Gerrymandering]]><![CDATA[Judges]]><![CDATA[Virginia]]>https://twitchy.com/justmindy/2026/05/08/matt-yglesias-get-rid-of-virginia-judges-n2428000
