Rep. Stephanie Murphy (D-FL) is getting ready to retire, but on her way out the door, she blasted her party’s leadership in an interview on Friday for promoting progressive Democrats while stomping on the more moderate faction of the party.
She told Politico that Democratic leadership “beat moderates into submission” while pushing to pass President Joe Biden’s agenda. Murphy routinely bucks House Speaker Nancy Pelosi over various issues. She has announced that she will not be seeking reelection ostensibly because she’s fed up with radical leftism in her own party.
“I can’t tell you the number of times I said, ‘You can’t keep promising rainbows and unicorns when your political reality is such narrow margins in the House and a dead-even Senate,’” the three-term congresswoman who sits on the powerful House Ways and Means Committee recounted. “They took the difference between rainbows and unicorns and political reality — which is anger and disappointment — and turned that anger and disappointment against their own members.”
Democratic moderates pushed back against party leadership’s efforts last year to link the nearly $2 trillion Build Back Better Act to the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill. Both bills eventually passed and moderates were exiled to the corner and collectively told to put a sock in it. (Audio Credit: Politico Playbook Deep Dive)
“I felt from the start [connecting the two bills] was a failed strategy ,” Murphy asserted. “I also felt like you can’t promise rainbows and unicorns when you know that you don’t have the votes for it.”
She noted that those controlling the party had less “tolerance” for moderates voting in ways that could retain their seats in Congress since Democrats seized control following the 2020 election.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
