AP Photo/Jacquelyn Martin President Donald Trump reveled in George Conway’s election loss on Tuesday, noting that the attorney had gotten “CRUSHED.” Conway, the longtime Trump critic, ran as a Democrat in New York’s 12th congressional district after Rep. Jerry Nadler announced his retirement. State Rep. Micah Lasher won Tuesday’s primary, defeating state Rep. Alex Bores by about four points. In third was Kennedy family scion and weird social media poster Jack Kennedy Schlossberg. In fourth was public health researcher Nina Schwalbe. Conway finished fifth. At the time of this writing, he was at 6.1%, having about 6,200 votes out of 102,000 cast. After the primary was called, the president took to Truth Social to comment on Conway, who is the ex-husband of former Trump senior counselor Kellyanne Conway. Trump referred to Kellyanne as George’s “husband”: Wow, Mr. Kellyanne Conway, a Trump Deranged Loser at the highest level, is getting absolutely CRUSHED in the Primaries tonight. He’ll end up at about 5% of the vote in a rather weak field of young and aggressive Communists. No wonder his “husband” dumped him like a dog! This is a truly unattractive person, both inside and out. Have a nice life, George! President DJT This month, the White House issued a statement slamming one of Conway’s campaign ads in which the candidate pledged to somehow put Trump in prison. “I know you like putting your name on everything, from your plane to the Kennedy Center,” Conway said in the spot. “But the only thing your name is going to be left on when I’m done with you is the orange jumpsuit you’re going to have to wear in prison.” “Lightweight George Conway is a stupid person’s idea of a smart person,” the White House responded in a statement. “His severe and debilitating disease known as Trump Derangement syndrome has melted his brain and made him crazy in the head.”The post Trump Roasts ‘Unattractive’ George Conway for ‘Getting Absolutely CRUSHED’ in Primary first appeared on Mediaite.

CNN commentator Van Jones said the Democratic establishment was handed a decisive defeat in Tuesday’s primaries in New York. Mayor Zohrani Mamdani endorsed three leftist candidates vying for congressional seats, all of whom won on Tuesday night. Two of them faced off against sitting members of Congress. Brad Lander, the former NYC comptroller, crushed Rep. Dan Goldman to earn the nomination in the 10th district. Darializa Avila Chevalier, a union organizer, defeated Rep. Adriano Espaillat in the 13th district. And state Rep. Claire Valdez trounced Brooklyn Borough President Antonio Reynoso in the 7th district. As of this writing, Lander led Goldman by 33 points, Chevalier led by 3.5 points, and Valdez led by 20 points. On Tuesday’s edition of The Source, Jones said the results indicated that Democratic voters in New York are fed up with the party’s establishment, which includes Sen. Minority Leader Chuck Schumer and House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, both from New York City: Well first of all, New York City matters because the two most exciting left-wing candidates are here, AOC and Mamdani. But also this is the stronghold for the establishment. Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. This is a battle between the establishment and this insurgency. And the roof is collapsing on the Democratic Party establishment tonight. If Mamdani gets a hat trick, three out of three, this is a new era for the Democratic Party. And you can’t write off New York City because this is the place where both of– it’s a power center for the establishment and the insurgency. And they’re going head to head tonight. And right now, this is no longer a movement. This is a movement and a machine at the same time. And there’s just no way to sugarcoat this. If Mamdani pulls off a hat trick is a new era in Democratic Party politics. Jones went on to conclude, “This is a straight-up battle between the establishment and the insurgency. And the establishment is getting its butt kicked tonight in New York City.” Earlier in the day, Politico noted that Schumer had been trying to “stave off the march of Democratic insurgents” Mamdani had endorsed. The nominees’ seats are solidly blue and are expected to win in November’s general election.

Screenshot via MeidasTouch Rep. Rich McCormick (R-GA) defied President Donald Trump on whether Iran should have ballistic missiles amid peace deal negotiations. McCormick spoke to MeidasTouch on Capitol Hill on Tuesday and he was asked about the president and vice president’s recent talk of Iran’s missile supply and the country having a “right to self-defense.” McCormick said: I don’t really track what the vice president says, I have my own opinion. I’ve been 20 years in the military. I served overseas in the Persian Gulf for a couple tours. I’m a Marine by nature. I’ll tell you what I’m not gonna have is a Tehran regime that’s pursuing ballistic missiles, pursuing nuclear arms. It says they’re gonna rain down fire from above on the United States. It’s attacked us 40 times, proxy terrorist organizations killed 1,000 people. I don’t really care what they choose to do. I know what we should do. Trump caused some waves when he discussed Iran and their ballistic missiles after a peace deal is finalized. “I’m saying that if other countries have them, it’s a little bit unfair for them not to have some,” Trump told reporters last week. Critics saw a shift in position as Trump said on the first day of the war that “we’re going to destroy their missiles and raze their missile industry to the ground.” Vance later commented, denying there was a flip-flop. He insisted Iran will not be allowed to “build the kind of missiles that can broadly threaten the world.” “You can’t tell a country, whether Israel or Iran, they’re not allowed to have any self-defense. That’s not what the president has asked,” he said. Asked about Trump’s position, McCormick remained defiant. “Once again, I’m not worried about what the president says or what the vice president’s gonna say because what I have is my own opinion because I have very strong feelings about that Tehran regime, which I do not trust, and I would love to see eliminated. That’s my opinion, nobody else… And like I said, I stick by my experiences and my opinion.” McCormick: I’m not going to have an Iranian regime pursuing ballistic missiles. Reporter: So do you disagree with the president when he says it’s a little unfair for Iran not to have ballistic missiles? McCormick: I’m not worried about what the president says.

John Fetterman (D-PA) claimed on Tuesday night that to be contemptuous of Israel is to be “anti-American.” Fetterman has emerged as Israel’s staunchest Democratic supporter in Congress, despite increasing criticism from pundits and politicians of the Israeli government and its prosecutions of the wars in Gaza and Lebanon. The senator appeared on Tuesday’s Hannity on Fox News, where he has become a regular guest and is invited to bash fellow Democrats. Sean Hannity said Democratic socialists within the party, such as New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani, hate Israel and asked, “Why the deep hatred for Israel? Why?” Fetterman responded that to be opposed to Israel is to be against the United States, a separate geopolitical entity. “Because you have such contempt for Israel, I mean, of course, you’re also anti-American, and you’re anti-Western civilian– civilization,” the senator said. “And you’re anti-capitalism and the American way of life. Now, I mean, they’re all socialists, of course. Now there’s communists and now Marxists and now they’re proud of this.” Fetterman, who was backed by the progressive wing of the party during his 2022 Senate run, has run afoul of a wide cross-section of Democratic voters since taking office. In March, CNN’s Harry Enten noted that Fetterman’s approval rating among Democrats in Pennsylvania had swung 108 points, going from an approval rating of 68 points above water to being underwater by 40 points. Last month, New York magazine reported that during a meeting with staff last summer, Fetterman floated himself as the Democratic vice presidential nominee in 2028. “Almost all of us had our jaws on the floor, like, ‘Are you out of your f*cking mind? You don’t do your job, you can’t raise any money, and your entire party hates you,’” a person who was in the room told the publication.

- Kaitlan Collins Informs Congressional Candidate on CNN He Just Won: ‘I’m Gon...Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY) lost his Tuesday primary to challenger Brad Lander, a former city comptroller backed by New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D). CNN’s Kaitlan Collins informed Lander live on air. Goldman was battling to hold onto his Manhattan and Brooklyn House seat as he’s faced growing backlash over his support of Israel. A New York City coffee shop even made headlines recently for banning the congressman and branding him a “genocide enabler,” referring to his support of Israel striking Gaza in response to the October 7 attack from the terror group Hamas. “What is going on in the Middle East is horrific. And the idea of accusing someone who you don’t know of supporting a genocide — I mean, it’s crazy,” Goldman told CNN about the ban. “Now, I may disagree as to whether or not there’s a genocide, but come on. We’re better than this.” Lander’s challenge was widely seen as a potential sign for the future direction of the Democratic Party and a test of Mamdani’s political influence. The Democratic socialist backed multiple candidates going into primaries on Tuesday night. Lander appeared on CNN as the race was being called. He took an early lead after polls closed at 9 p.m., quickly racking up more than 60% support. “We came on the air just a couple of minutes ago as the numbers were still coming in. In your race, I’m going to do something a little unusual here. So I want you to bear with me. Not many candidates are on CNN when they hear this music. But we do have breaking news, and we can now project that Brad Lander will defeat the incumbent congressman, Dan Goldman, in the Democratic primary for New York’s 10th congressional district. And, sir, obviously, since we have you here live on air, as we are making this call, um, what is your first reaction to this?” Collins asked. “Well, thank you. First of all, obviously I’m thrilled,” Lander said. “I did not expect to be on air when the race was called. Look, I love election day. I like the voters get to go out and cast their ballots and say, here’s who we want to represent us. These are the fights that matter to us. And all I can say is I promise to go out every single day and fight for my constituents and… [TheTopNews] Read More.5 hours ago
