In the wake of the November 5, 2025, elections, the political landscape offers a stark reminder of the perils facing our Constitutional Republic. Republicans and conservatives lamented predictable setbacks, but these aren’t just losses—they’re self-inflicted wounds born from a chronic failure to seize and wield the power of narrative.
As we barrel toward the 2026 midterms and the pivotal 2028 General Election, it’s time for a brutal reckoning: If we don’t get exponentially better at capturing the message, owning the story, and relentlessly hammering our enemies into irrelevance, the Marxist-Progressive Left will continue its insidious march toward domination. The Democrats, those enablers of radicalism, and their Marxist-Progressive overlords—now emboldened by their alliances with Islamofascist elements—thrive on chaos and deception. We must become the aggressors in the information war, or watch our nation dissolve into a socialist dystopia.
Let’s start with the obvious: The losses in New Jersey and Virginia on November 5 were entirely foreseeable. Both states have long been bastions of blue tyranny, infested with urban elites and suburban sheep who reliably vote for big-government handouts and cultural decay. New Jersey, with its history of corrupt Democrat machines, and Virginia, poisoned by the proximity to Washington’s swamp, were never going to flip without a Herculean effort.
Yet, these defeats sting not because they were surprises, but because they expose the complacency of the Right. We allowed the Democrats to frame the races as referendums on Trump while ignoring that it is their own party that refuses to reopen government, letting their Marxist-Progressive puppets spew lies about equity and inclusion, while Republicans and conservatives mumbled about taxes and crime.
In Virginia, the Left’s gender ideology indoctrination in schools went unchallenged in the narrative space, allowing them to portray conservatives as bigots. New Jersey’s economic woes? Buried under an avalanche of Democrat ads painting Republicans as heartless, even as it is the culmination of Leftist policies that have destroyed that economy. These weren’t inevitable; they were gifts to the enemy because we failed to dominate the discourse.
Even more galling is the election of Zohran Mamdani as New York City Mayor—a Marxist-Progressive Jihadi whose victory was as predictable as it is disastrous. New York, that cesspool of ignorant Leftist excess, handed the keys to a radical who openly sympathizes with anti-American ideologies. But what of the choices voters had? Curtis Sliwa, the perennial spoiler with his Guardian Angels schtick and a new cat book, couldn’t muster a coherent message beyond nostalgia, and disgraced former Governor Andrew Cuomo, reeking of scandal and hypocrisy—his hands dripping with blood from the COVID scamdemic, was a laughable retread. The field was a joke, allowing Mamdani to waltz in on a platform of “social justice” that masks his true agenda: dismantling capitalism and cozying up to Islamist sympathizers. The Left owned this narrative from day one, branding their man as a fresh voice against “fascism,” while we sat on our hands.
Mamdani’s win isn’t just a local tragedy; it’s a national harbinger of the Marxist-Islamofascist alliance gaining ground in our cities.
The larger truth here is damning: these losses represent squandered opportunities to advance constitutionally centered, conservative governance. Opportunity after opportunity slips away because Republicans, conservatives, and even the MAGA movement—to a lesser but still critical extent—simply don’t grasp the primacy of narrative control. We treat politics like a gentleman’s debate club, while the Left plays for keeps, weaponizing every headline, tweet, and soundbite to bludgeon us.
They capture the message by flooding the zone with propaganda: “Republicans hate women,” “Conservatives are racists,” “MAGA is insurrectionist.” And what do we do? Respond tepidly, if at all, allowing their lies to fester. For a fleeting moment, I thought we had turned a corner, when Illinois Governor JB Pritzker, that bloated symbol of platinum spoon-in-the-ass Democrat entitlement, complained that the Trump administration was “beating Democrats to the microphones” on the subject of immigration enforcement, capturing the narrative in the Chicago media. But that didn’t last long. They regrouped and attacked again and again, as we often fail to do.
The MAGA energy under Trump showed promise—raw, unapologetic—but even that often devolves into infighting rather than unified assault. We must become relentless: Own the narrative by defining terms first. Call out the Democrats’ Marxist-Progressive wing for what it is—a cabal of power-hungry ideologues hell-bent on erasing borders, families, and freedoms. Bludgeon them intellectually into obscurity by exposing their hypocrisies each and every day, from their “defund the police” stupidity to their embrace of gender madness that endangers children.
To salvage our Republic from the grand, ongoing march of Marxism and Islamofascism, our mastery of messaging is non-negotiable. The general public must be crystal clear on every issue: Inflation? Blame Biden-Harris’s socialist spending sprees. Crime waves? Courtesy of soft-on-crime DAs funded by Soros and his satellite clone organizations. Border chaos? The Cloward-Piven Left’s invitation to cartels and terrorists. We own the narrative by dominating the public square—cyber and real. Beat the Democrats to every camera and microphone; flood social media with facts, not feelings or useless memes. Keep the pressure on, never relenting—turn their scandals into endless loops, like Hunter Biden’s laptop or Kamala’s cackles. The Marxist-Progressives excel at this; they frame abortion as “reproductive rights” while we stutter about life. No more! We must educate, agitate, and dominate, ensuring the silent majority sees the Left for the tyrants they are.
Finally, we must seed the ground for the post-Trump era. Trump’s revolution ignited the fire, but this counter-revolution against Marxism and Islamofascism must endure eternally. Failing to prepare successors—readying leaders like Ron DeSantis or JD Vance with narrative savvy—dooms us. If we don’t set the stage, scripting, preparing, and dominating with the message of liberty, security, and prosperity, we’ll reap a harvest of Mamdani’s: Radical mayors, governors, and even presidents peddling division and decline.
The 2026 midterms are our proving ground; 2028, our battle royale. Republicans, conservatives, MAGA—wake up. Capture the narrative and keep it, or surrender the Republic to the Marxist-Islamofascist horde.

In Closing…
As we wrap up today’s episode, remember: The losses in New Jersey and Virginia, and New York City’s election of Marxist-Progressive Jihadi Zohran Mamdani were predictable in traditional blue strongholds, thanks to weak alternatives.
But worse, these were missed opportunities for the expansion of constitutional conservatism because Republicans and conservatives lack the ability–the will–needed to capture and hold narratives relentlessly.
We must dominate messaging, beat the Left to every mic, expose their Marxist-Islamofascist march, and clarify issues like inflation and crime as Democrat failures. We must prepare for post-Trump by readying and supporting narrative-savvy leaders, or we’ll see more Mamdanis in more cities across the country and, perhaps, even in the White House…again.
Until next time…
