RINO Thom Tillis Rails Against Plans to Livestream Nidal Hasan Execution, Says Hegseth “Needs to Get the Hell Out” of War Department (VIDEO)

Thom Tillis

RINO Senator Thom Tillis (NC) on Sunday lost it over the Trump Administration’s plans to live stream the execution of Fort Hood jihadist mass shooter Nidal Malik Hasan on December 3rd, arguing it’s one reason why War Secretary Pete Hegseth should not be in the cabinet.

Hegseth, he said, “needs to get the hell out of the Department of Defense.”

Hegseth announced last week that the execution of convicted Fort Hood Islamist terrorist Nidal Malik Hasan will be public, with American soldiers carrying out the firing squad at the very installation where Hasan murdered 13 people and wounded 32 others in 2009.

“An Army major betrays his country, radical Islamist, kills a bunch of Americans at Fort Hood. Of course, we’re gonna do it at Fort Hood. We’re gonna do it on a Thursday. We’re gonna do it at 1 o’clock, which is when he did it,” Hegseth said. “We’ll make sure that people are able to watch it, that it’s public, because people need to understand that there’s serious consequences for these types of things.”

However, Tillis decried Hegseth, ridiculously claiming that the execution is “another example of where U.S. lives, American lives, will be put at risk.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, Tilis went on an unhinged rant earlier in the interview, claiming that Trump’s deal with Russia to buy diesel fuel will also put American lives at risk. He’s just attacking everything Trump to sell his book.

“Terrorist organizations will use this as a recruiting tool. It will radicalize other people,” he argued. “And this is not who we are. Look, the Fort Hood shooter should be put to death, but there is a — there’s a way to deal with this that’s proper, and there’s a way to deal with this that’s more improper than I have ever observed in my life.”

He then whined about Hegseth, saying, “This is not who we are, and it’s another example of why Pete Hegseth and all of his bravado needs to get the hell out of the Department of Defense, because he is a failed leader, and we need strong leadership supporting President Trump right now.”

Asked to expand on his criticisms of Hegseth and whether he regrets voting to confirm him, Tillis teased his book again, bragged about “supporting presidents’ cabinet picks dating all the way back to Obama,” and then purported to care only about President Trump’s legacy.

“I probably was a little subtle in my book — I dedicate a whole chapter to my biggest regret, so I think it’s pretty clear that I regret that decision,” he said.

“I made a mistake. I’ve admitted that I made a mistake, and now I want to try and put somebody in place that will help the president’s legacy and make Americans safer. And that is not Pete Hegseth.”

WATCH:

Trump recently spoke about the plans to live stream the execution, saying, “they want to do that because they want to set an example. I wasn’t involved in that decision, but I understand the decision.”

“He went in and killed 14 people; he badly, badly wounded 22 people — walked into a room, just started firing at everybody, screaming things that he shouldn’t be screaming. I guess they want to have it serve as an example, and I understand that very well,” he added.

WATCH: Another Massive Flash Flood in Nepal Destroys Bridge, Wipes Out Homes

At least five people are missing after Nepal was hit with another flood this weekend.

The flash flood completely destroyed a bridge and wiped out homes.

This time the flash flood was triggered by a landslide that blocked the Budhi Gangraki river.

The landslide formed a dam which later led to the flash flood.

WATCH:

The AP reported:

Residents along the Budhi Gandaki river in north central Nepal evacuated on Sunday as flash flooding destroyed homes and other structures in the area.

The National Disaster Risk Reduction and Management Authority evacuated villagers and warned others to move to safer areas while remaining on alert until late Sunday.

The agency said at least five people are reported missing so far. The flash flood also damaged or destroyed four bridges, swept away about three dozen houses and damaged the construction site of a hydropower plant.

Several power and communication towers were also damaged along the riverside.

Nepal’s army said in a statement that it was continuing to rescue stranded people using helicopters and ground troops. They had rescued 49 people by Sunday afternoon.

In August a massive flood was triggered after a glacier collapsed near Langtang Lirung along the Nepal-China border.

More than 1,500 people died and 5,000 people remain missing after the avalanche led to a flash flood of water and debris.

The flood damaged more than 7,500 homes and displaced tens of thousands of residents.

Columbia’s Explosive Menu Line

When ambiguity collides with a sacred date, neutrality evaporates; in a campus climate already primed by years of fights over antisemitism and protest, a single menu line can detonate into a reputational crisis.

The Short Version

  • A dining-hall menu at Columbia University displayed “October 7th Blush Sauce” on the anniversary of the Hamas attacks, triggering rapid backlash.
  • Columbia Dining called it a template error, removed the signs, apologized, and pledged added review before future postings.
  • Evidence supports the listing’s existence and the controversy, but not an intentional political reference.
  • The episode shows how campus incidents are now read through an antisemitism lens and hardened by social media velocity.

What actually happened: a specific listing, a charged date, and a fast-moving backlash

At Columbia’s John Jay Dining Hall, signage and a menu posting included the phrase “October 7th Blush Sauce,” which stood out because other sauces carried ordinary labels. The timing—on the anniversary of the Hamas attacks—made the wording instantly salient and, to many, provocative. The listing circulated via a screenshot-style post on social media and was then amplified by outlets that framed the reaction as outrage, with critics reading the phrase as a symbolic reference to victims of the attacks. The university’s dining arm responded quickly: the signs were taken down, an apology issued, and an explanation offered that the date had been inadvertently left in when a scheduled sauce entry was copied into a template.

Two things can be true at once. First, the phrase appeared, was unique on the menu, and angered people who interpreted it through the day’s tragic associations. Second, the record available to the public stops at a plausible operational error and does not substantiate intentional messaging. Columbia’s explanation aligns with a garden-variety workflow mistake: a scheduled item, a templated field, and a missed delete on the date string.

Mechanism: how a mundane template error becomes a reputational event

Large campus dining operations run on production calendars and menu-planning software. Scheduled items are repeated and ported into daily layouts; last-mile reviews are the human backstops that catch oddities before they go live. When those checks fail, artifacts creep into public view—stray dates, placeholder text, internal abbreviations. The Columbia case fits that pattern as described by the institution: a standard sauce with a common culinary name—blush, the tomato–cream “pink” or rosé style—paired with an accidentally retained date field. That alone would be banal but for the date. In crisis mechanics, context is a multiplier. On October 7, the same string reads not as clerical detritus but as code.

Once a photo of the signage landed on X, the incident moved into a familiar cycle. The first frame wins; later clarifications struggle to overtake initial interpretations. News write-ups repeated both the image and the university’s correction, but the emotional charge of the date tilted the discourse toward intent—even absent corroborating evidence of deliberation or animus.

Evidence and its limits: what the public record does and does not show

The strongest facts are straightforward: signage with “October 7th Blush Sauce” existed; other sauces were not labeled with the date; the timing was the anniversary; and Columbia Dining apologized, called it a mistake, and removed the signs. These points are documented across multiple outlets and in the university’s own statement. What is not publicly established is motive: no published metadata from the menu system, no version history, no named staff testimony linking the phrasing to an intentional reference. The institutional narrative is consistent—template error—and no on-record evidence has surfaced that refutes it with specifics (e.g., internal messages or directives).

In rigorous terms, the available evidence supports insensitivity by effect, not intentionality by design. The absence of a demonstrated workflow chain leaves room for suspicion, but suspicion is not proof. Responsible assessment rests where the documentary trail does: a real posting, real offense taken, and a plausible operational failure as the cause.

Why it landed so hard at Columbia: prior controversies and a primed audience

Context conditions interpretation. Columbia has been a focal point in national arguments over campus antisemitism and pro-Palestinian protest since 2023. That history creates a confirmation-bias trap: ambiguous stimuli—posters, chants, or, here, a date appended to a menu item—are more likely to be read as part of a hostile pattern. Federal scrutiny and donor activism have further raised the stakes for any perceived lapse, incentivizing rapid, sometimes maximalist readings of institutional behavior. In that environment, even small operational errors can function as proxies for much larger debates about campus culture and safety for Jewish students.

What competent institutions do next: process, transparency, and velocity control

Three disciplines mitigate these spirals. First, preemptive process: require a second-person review for all public-facing campus communications that intersect with high-salience dates or topics. Columbia says it will add a review step to menus; that is a minimal baseline, not a high bar. Second, selective transparency: when intent is disputed and trust is thin, publishing a redacted version history or audit log—fields edited, timestamps, approver IDs—can stabilize the narrative without compromising staff privacy. Universities already log this data; using it judiciously builds credibility. Third, velocity control: designate a cross-functional response cell (dining, student affairs, communications, counsel) with pre-cleared language and escalation paths so clarifications land while the first frame is still forming, not hours later when outrage has ossified.

Reading incidents like this wisely: a practical lens for stakeholders

For students and alumni, a simple rubric helps. Ask first what is documented, not what is inferred: here, the listing and the date are facts; intent is not. Next, weigh the competing explanations; a templating slip that was corrected quickly is consistent with common operational failure modes in large service units. Finally, separate harm from motive. Harm, even when unintended, warrants apology and remedial process. But escalating to accusations of deliberate glorification requires evidence crossing a higher bar—named actors, artifact trails, or directives. In the present case, that threshold is not met in the public record.

The broader pattern will outlast this menu

This episode will fade, but its structure will recur: a charged date or symbol, an ambiguous artifact, social amplification, and polarized interpretations hardened before facts mature. The remedy is not to wish away symbolism, which matters deeply to people, but to improve institutional hygiene—better review, faster factual disclosures, and decision logs strong enough to earn trust when emotions are at their peak. Until then, single lines on a menu will keep standing in for arguments much larger than lunch.

Man Stabs His Parents to Death Inside Indianapolis Home, Blames Mental Health Episode

A man was arrested on Sunday after he fatally stabbed his parents in their Indianapolis home on Sunday.

The unidentified suspect stabbed his parents shortly after 12 noon.

Officers arrived to the residence in the 2800 block of Lakeshire Lane near Township Line Road and found two victims suffering from stab wounds.

The suspect’s mother was pronounced dead at the scene, and his father was transported to a hospital where he later died.

(VIDEO) RINO Thom Tillis Says Trump’s Russia Diesel Deal is Illegal – Claims it “Absolutely” Puts American Lives at Risk to Promote His Book

Thom Tillis

In the latest stop on a promotion tour for his new book, How to Lose Friends and Antagonize Presidents, RINO Senator Thom Tillis (NC) went on another anti-Trump tirade for 12 minutes on NBC this morning, taking aim at Trump’s foreign policy. 

Tillis can’t help but root against Trump.

Today, it was Trump’s agreement to import diesel fuel from Russia, which he announced on Friday after speaking with Russian President Vladimir Putin.

“I completely reject it,” Tillis said, describing the ongoing conflict as “an illegal war that was initiated by the despot that we know as Vladimir Putin.”

“Look, I was over in Ukraine a couple of weeks ago with a couple of my colleagues. We went to Kharkiv. We heard stories of systematic kidnap and relocation of children, rape of women and daughters in the presence of their husband before they were executed,” he claimed.

“If President Trump wants to end the strain of energy supplies, number one, get things right in Iran, and number two, recognize that it was Vladimir Putin, not Zelensky, that started this war, and it’s Vladimir Putin who owns the responsibility for energy prices to the extent that they come from that part of the world.”

He further accused Trump of “tarnishing Lindsey Graham’s efforts to try and get the sanctions bill through.”

Asked whether he thinks Trump’s waiver of sanctions violates the law, Tillis said he will be putting out a statement with New Hampshire Democratic Senator Jeanne Shaheen to pressure Trump into reversing the deal, claiming it has “deadly consequences.”

“I do believe there’s a legitimate case for saying the president’s not following the law,” he said, calling on Russia to end the war by “backing out” of all territory they’ve occupied since the beginning.

Asked if the deal will put American lives at risk, Tillis said, “it absolutely will. My goodness!” while highlighting Putin’s “cozy relationship” with Iran over the years.

“I will guarantee you at the first opportunity Putin has to embarrass or undermine President Trump, he will,” he added.

WATCH: James Talarico Changes Story About Doctor Visit While Responding to Mental Hospital Rumors in First Interviews Since Disappearance

James Talarico’s first interview after emerging from mysterious absence

Texas Democratic Senate Nominee James Talarico broke his silence on his two-week hiatus this afternoon in interviews with NBC and MS Now, swearing that he “just had the flu” as claims that he was suffering a mental health episode continue to circulate. 

The Gateway Pundit reported earlier on allegations that Talarico was admitted to a mental institution in Ohio during his mysterious absence. An employee at the Lindner Center of HOPE in Mason, Ohio, allegedly confirmed on Saturday during a recorded phone call that Talarico had been “just discharged” from the facility. However, Talarico’s team denied the claim, saying “Talarico was home in Austin, Texas recovering from the flu.”

BREAKING: James Talarico Was Reportedly in Ohio Mental Health Hospital During Mysterious Disappearance – Talarico Campaign Responds! (AUDIO)

Talarico previously claimed, from a hotel room somewhere, that he had been diagnosed with a flu so bad that he went to an urgent care in Dallas during a virtual appearance at a United States Hispanic Business Council forum on September 30.

“I was starting to feel kind of under the weather a few days ago, and last night it got so bad that I went to the urgent care here in Dallas,” he said. “And I was diagnosed with the flu, and so uh I’m running a fever, and I’m my most contagious uh right now.”

Now, he’s changed his story, saying, “I just went to my primary care physician, but it wasn’t anything worse than, you know, a nasty case of the flu.” So, was it urgent care in Dallas or a primary care physician at his home in Austin?

When asked by Dallas-Fort Worth-based NBC reporter Phil Prazan to explain his absence, Talarico said, “Yeah, I got the flu, and I’m feeling much better, and I’m glad I had a chance to recover.”

“That’s not true,” he said of the claim that he was in a mental hospital. “I just had the flu, and I feel much better. But it’s a good reminder that you can’t believe everything you read on the internet.”

Talarico further maintained that he’s ready to debate Republican Senate Nominee Ken Paxton and called on Paxton to meet him on a stage. “You know, I’ve heard rumors that he has a rare medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice. So, I know Ken Paxton has asked for proof of life for me; I’m asking for proof of spine from him,” he said.

He also used the same pre-rehearsed lines in an interview with MS Now’s Rosa Flores this afternoon.

“I had the flu. This is the craziest thing I’ve ever heard. It’s wild that someone can just put something on the internet and then the media just runs with it,” he said. “You know, I’ve heard credible reports that Paxton has a serious medical condition that causes clinical levels of cowardice… He has asked for proof of life from me; I’m asking for proof of spine from him.”

JUST IN: Russia Strikes Ukrainian Power Plant After Trump Announces Energy Ceasefire, Zelensky Says (VIDEO)

Russia reportedly attacked a Ukrainian power plant on Sunday, hours after President Trump announced an energy ceasefire. 

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, Trump announced a ceasefire between Ukraine and Russia, which Zelensky said he supports.

“Effective immediately, there is an ENERGY CEASEFIRE in the War between Russia and Ukraine. Both parties have agreed. Do not break it! Thank you for your attention to this matter,” Trump wrote on Truth Social this morning.

Zelensky later responded, writing, “Ukraine supports the ceasefire, and it is important that Russia support it as well. We are awaiting details from the American side.”

President Trump Announces Energy Ceasefire Between Russia and Ukraine After Ukraine Blows Up Russian Diesel Terminal – Zelensky Responds

The announcement followed a back-and-forth in the press between Trump and Zelensky after Trump announced a deal to purchase diesel from Russia. However, Ukraine continued attacks, striking a Russian diesel export hub, which angered the President.

Trump went off on Zelensky on Saturday, calling for him to hold an election to replace him, and accusing him of dragging out the war. He doubled down hours later, saying Zelensky “should have an election” and that “Putin would like to see a settlement strongly,” but “Zelensky does not want to make a deal.”

Zelensky responded to Trump on Sunday ahead of the ceasefire announcement, telling ABC’s Jonathan Karl that it’s Russia’s fault that the war has continued and calling for a ceasefire.

Russia reportedly hit the power plant this afternoon.

Per ABC:

Russia has attacked a power plant in the eastern Ukrainian city of Kharkiv despite President Donald Trump’s statement earlier Sunday that both sides had agreed to an “energy ceasefire,” according to Ukrainian officials.

A local official told ABC News the thermal power plant CHP-5 was struck at least twice, causing a fire. President Volodymyr Zelenskyy in a statement confirmed Russia had attacked the plant, as well as another in Kyiv, saying it had taken place after Trump’s announcement.

Announcing the energy ceasefire earlier on social media, Trump said both Russia and Ukraine had agreed and that it would immediately come into effect, but Zelenskyy has said Ukraine was caught off guard by the announcement. Russia has yet to comment.

Zelensky released a video statement on X:

Ukraine Field Report: Russian Bombs Wound More Than 20 in Sumy as Merz Brings New Aid to Kyiv

German Chancellor Friedrich Merz meets with President Volodymyr Zelensky in Kyiv on October 4, 2026, to discuss ties between their countries, European affairs, and global issues. Photo courtesy of Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky.

 

Russian forces hit Kyiv’s Northern Bridge for the second straight day on October 4, dropped guided bombs on Sumy, and killed civilians in five regions as German Chancellor Friedrich Merz arrived in Kyiv with new aid.

In Kyiv, Mayor Vitali Klitschko said a strike at 10:34 a.m. hit the Northern Bridge roadway, injuring two people, one of whom was hospitalized. A damaged heating main in the Desnianskyi district temporarily cut off hot water. Overnight, drones damaged six private houses, a church, a primary school, a café, and a medical facility in the Boryspil district. No one was hurt.

In Chernihiv Oblast, a drone set fire to a house and outbuilding in the Nosivka community, damaging neighboring homes. Regional head Viacheslav Chaus reported five people injured regionwide. In Nosivka, a 76-year-old woman, a 55-year-old man, and a 10-year-old boy suffered burns. The boy was moved from intensive care to a Kyiv hospital in serious condition.

In Sumy Oblast, Russia carried out 45 attacks on 21 settlements in 14 communities. Five guided bombs hit Sumy and the Bezdrytsia community in the morning, and around 2 p.m. Russia dropped six more on the city. Drones hitting a Sumy enterprise killed a 52-year-old worker. Authorities reported more than 25 injured, 21 by aerial bombs, including a 1-year-old child. Sumy has been a frequent target, as covered in a recent field report.

In Poltava Oblast, a drone hit an energy facility, temporarily leaving about 22,000 consumers without power, regional head Vitalii Diakivnych said.

On the Eastern Front, Kharkiv Oblast head Oleh Syniehubov said Russia attacked Kharkiv and 10 other settlements with three missiles, one MLRS round, seven Geran-2 drones, two Molniya drones, nine FPV drones, and 136 other drones, killing one person, a 42-year-old man in Kharkiv, and injuring 12. Late on October 4, a Banderol missile-drone hit a residential high-rise in Kharkiv’s Industrialnyi district. Mayor Ihor Terekhov first reported two dead, but updated figures put the toll at one killed and six injured.

In Donetsk Oblast, regional head Vadym Filashkin reported 20 Russian attacks and said Russian forces killed a resident of Kramatorsk. In Sloviansk, three private houses and two cars were damaged. Authorities evacuated 293 people from the front line, including 21 children.

In Dnipropetrovsk Oblast, Russia struck four districts more than 70 times with drones, artillery, and an aerial bomb, killing one person in the Nikopol area and injuring four, three near Nikopol and one in Pavlohrad. In Dnipro, an attack hit a telecommunications company’s premises.

On the Southern Front, Zaporizhzhia Oblast absorbed 891 strikes on 52 settlements, including 25 airstrikes, 719 drone attacks, two MLRS salvos, and 145 artillery strikes, with 40 damage reports. Drones attacking Kushuhum and Novostepnianske killed two people and injured two. A 79-year-old man died in Kushuhum, and in Novostepnianske a drone hit a moving truck, killing the driver.

In Kherson Oblast, regional head Oleksandr Prokudin said Russian drones, artillery, and aircraft hit Kherson and 19 other settlements, injuring six people and damaging an apartment building, seven private houses, a cell tower, a gas pipeline, an agricultural enterprise, and a minibus.

Ukraine’s General Staff reported on October 5 that Russia lost 2,020 personnel in the previous 24 hours, bringing its total since February 2022 to about 1,542,720. Ukrainian losses were not disclosed, though the war’s toll on soldiers has strained Ukraine’s prosthetics providers. Overnight on October 4, the SBU hit a Su-35 and Su-34 at the Khanska military airfield in Russia’s Republic of Adygea, and drones of its Alpha special operations center struck an ammunition depot there.

Merz arrived in Kyiv by train. At a joint press conference, he and Zelensky announced a German package worth over €1.3 billion ($1.46 billion), including €1 billion in military aid with funding for interceptor drones that can counter Russian jet-powered weapons, and about €350 million for energy. Germany will also supply thousands of IRIS-T missiles and additional IRIS-T fire units. “This will quickly and noticeably strengthen Ukraine’s air defense, and this reinforcement is urgently needed,” Merz said. The two countries signed 15 cooperation documents. The visit came days after Ukrainians marked Pokrova, an observance that links Christian faith with military service.

Zelensky said the U.S. is proposing “some kind of meeting at the technical level in a trilateral format by the end of October.” He said he spoke directly with the U.S. negotiating team on October 3 and that Ukraine is ready to participate.

Asked whether Russia had shared its new jet-powered drone with North Korea, Zelensky replied, “Yes, of course.” Zelensky also congratulated Latvian Prime Minister Andris Kulbergs, whose pro-Ukraine United List won 41 seats in the 100-seat Saeima.

Typical: Colleges Celebrate Indigenous Peoples’ Day over Columbus Day

In the latest example of colleges being a breeding ground for leftist indoctrination, Campus Reform is reporting “several colleges are choosing to observe ‘Indigenous Peoples’ Day’ instead.”

Columbus Day is the national holiday that the left prefers to stir up trouble wherever they can and cause division.

President Joe Biden declared  “Indigenous Peoples’ Day” a national holiday last year, stating: “NOW, THEREFORE, I, JOSEPH R. BIDEN JR., President of the United States of America, do hereby proclaim October 11, 2021, as Indigenous Peoples’ Day.  I call upon the people of the United States to observe this day with appropriate ceremonies and activities.”

The schools choosing not to celebrate Columbus Day include Colorado State University, which ” invited Native American Rights Fund attorney Beth Wright to keynote its Indigenous Peoples Day event. It is hosted by the Native American Cultural Center and RamEvents.”

In addition Dartmouth a once prestigious school will be foregoing celebrating Columbus Day in favor of celebrating this new holiday going as far to proclaim “We’re challenging people to think about their assumptions about Christopher Columbus and about this nation in general—challenging them to question their American identity in a way that recognizes who we are as Indigenous people and who we’ve become, despite all the challenges that we’ve faced,” student Ahnili Johnson-Jennings said in a Dartmouth article.”

Other schools choosing the Biden-invented holiday over Columbus Day include Mid Michigan College and the University of St. Thomas.

In addition, Lake Forest College “will host three events on Monday in honor of indigenous people.”

Instead of showing respect to a traditional American holiday, the schools are once again showing they put left-wing ideology and DEI before an actual patriotic education.

Patriotism at these schools seems to be viewed as a vice.

One can assume other schools will follow the lead and opt out of Columbus Day in favor of a Biden-created holiday.

Any opportunity for the Cultural Marxist Left to divide America, they eagerly galvanize.

While we respect Native Americans and their history, hijacking American history and ruining an important day for Americans is not the way to show respect.

One would have hoped by now DEI and its remnants would have been purged from the universities, but that is clearly far from the case.

Marxists seek to undermine America and hijack every American celebration in favor of alternative agendas.

(VIDEO) Elon Baby Mama Ashley St. Clair Says She’s Now a “Dues-Paying Member of the DSA” and Says She “Feels Guilt” for Cuts to ‘Gender Affirming Care’ – Sings Bella Ciao

Ashley St. Clair interviews with CNN

Former conservative influencer Ashley St. Clair, who famously had a public spat with SpaceX founder and CEO Elon Musk over their child together, said that she is an official “dues-paying member” of the Democratic Socialists of America in an interview this week. 

Elon Musk this morning clarified on X, “Ashley St Clair was not my girlfriend. We only saw each other a few times.”

St. Clair revealed that she had a baby with Musk last year and claimed that he was an absent father who offered her millions to keep the baby a secret. It was also alleged that St. Clair’s pregnancy was a “baby trap,” and in leaked text messages, St. Clair allegedly said, “I need his rocket babies” and sought to “secuce Elon, and get in a rocket.”

The two publicly clashed over allegations of child support cuts and the alleged hush-money offering.

DRAMA: Ashley St. Clair Claims Elon Musk Offered Her $15 Million + $100,000 Per Month, But She Turned It Down… Paternity Test Results Are In!

Now, she’s somehow gone from being a conservative influencer to becoming a Democratic Socialist.

In an interview last week with CNN’s Donie O’Sullivan, St. Clair opened up about her journey of walking away from the Trump political movement to join the Democratic Socialists of America, and about her life post-Elon Musk.

Musk previously sought full custody of the pair’s child after she came out in support of transgenderism, writing in an apologetic social media post that she had been “trying incredibly hard privately to learn + advocate for those within the trans community that I’ve hurt.”

St. Clair previously published a 2022 children’s book called “Elephants Are Not Birds,” mocking the transgender agenda being pushed on children, for which she now repents.

During her CNN spotlight, she revealed that she is now a “dues-paying member of DSA,” jokingly comparing herself to “one of the communists.”

She said she joined “a little bit ago.”

When O’Sullivan quipped, “you’re a dangerous leftist radical,” she responded by singing the old Italian anti-Fascist folk song, “Bella Ciao,” a rallying cry used by Antifa.

She further opened up on her departure and regrets from being a part of the “MAGAverse,” agreeing that she previously authored an “anti-trans book.”

“I think being unempathetic. I think projecting my own brokenness onto other people,” she said of her biggest regrets from portraying herself as a right-winger.

“I think I’m always going to feel guilt about my own role in pushing rhetoric about things I didn’t know anything about.”

“I just saw a headline that came up on my phone recently about the hospitals that cut deals with the Trump administration to end gender affirming care, and I, like even though I know that’s not my fault, like I felt guilt for any role I played in pushing narratives that have led to these consequences,” she continued.
