Collusion between Big Tech and Western governments is a growing threat. It’s the First Amendment for a reason: free speech is a fundamental prerequisite for liberal democracy. But The Guardian, with logic that Stalin would have appreciated, insists the concern over free speech has been “concocted” by the Right. This is one example of many that shows the assault on free speech today primarily comes from the very people—the legacy media, academia, and progressives—who once championed unencumbered dialogue. Given the increasing likelihood of a Kamala Harris presidency, the outlook for free speech could turn even more dismal. As California’s attorney...

The Georgia State Election Board passed a rule on Friday requiring precincts to hand-count ballots for the November election and ensure the tallies match the machine count before election certification. The board voted 3-2 to pass the rule, The Guardian reported. The hand count only applies to election night, not early voting. The board voted 4-1 to table a proposal on hand-counting during early voting after a board member was concerned about information leaking regarding election tallies before all results are counted. The Georgia Association of Voter Registration and Election Officials, a group of more than 500 Georgia officials and...

At splashy weddings, charity balls and all the right restaurants, she hobnobbed with San Francisco’s moneyed elite—and made lasting allies who backed her at every stage of her political career. SAN FRANCISCO—In the summer of 1999, in the monied Napa Valley north of here, a bejeweled bride rode sidesaddle on a speckled horse into what the press would label “the Bay Area’s version of an outdoor royal wedding.” The lavish nuptials of Vanessa Jarman and oil heir Billy Getty—replete with red carpet, hundreds of flickering votives, and “a fair amount of wine,” according to one deadpan attendee—featured a 168-person guest...

Routh seems like 'someone who is constantly trying to poke somebody and see what their response is going to be,' says former FBI agent Scott Duffey A former FBI agent told Fox News Digital that there was "a clear mental illness component" that motivated would-be assassin Ryan Routh to take aim at former President Donald Trump on Sept. 15. Before he was charged with two gun-related crimes in a Florida court on Monday, Routh, 58, had more than a hundred interactions with police between the 1980s and 2010. His prior charges range from writing bad checks to felony firearms possession,...

The Trump campaign released a very long list of other blame-the-victim examples. Yet, while the left holds Trump entirely responsible for the impact of his rhetoric, it always excuses its own hatemongering. At a White House press briefing this week, Fox News’ Peter Doocy posed this question to Karine Jean-Pierre: “It’s been only two days since somebody allegedly tried to kill Donald Trump again, and you’re here at the podium in the White House briefing room calling him a threat. How many more assassination attempts on Donald Trump until the President and the Vice President, and you, pick a different...

Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) said during an appearance on Breitbart News Daily that there are currently five known assassination teams in the United States, three of which are foreign and out to kill former President Donald Trump. “Tragic. Avoidable,” Gaetz said when asked for his thoughts on the second assassination attempt against the former president. “I am starting to get the impression that we do not have enough force protection of supporting President Trump that we ought to have, given the threat environment,” he said, noting that he recently met with a senior official in the Department of Homeland Security...

have the solution to what’s coming on November 5th. But President Trump needs to act fast. He must make this high-profile, controversial, headline-grabbing, announcement TODAY! Trump is winning an electoral landslide. We all know that. In every credible and historically accurate poll, Trump is leading in the popular vote nationwide. And winning by an even bigger margin in each battleground state. Which adds up to an electoral landslide. Trump is winning. But will his lead hold up to the vast array of ways Democrats cheat? They have rigged this election 1000 ways to Sunday. It’s past time for any semblance...

In July, Democratic activists launched a “White Dudes For Harris” campaign to drum up support for the Harris-Walz ticket. The activists held a virtual Zoom call featuring Walz, Illinois Governor JB Pritzker and low-T Biden Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg. Also on the call were “celebrities” like singers Josh Groban and Lance Bass, and actors Mark Hamill and Bradley Whitford. During remarks, Whitford gushed, “What a variety of whiteness we have here. It’s like a rainbow of beige,” which appears to be the genesis of the name “Beige Rainbow PAC.” On Thursday, the group released its first ad under the Beige...

Surge in Unauthorized Border Crossings Highlights Challenges in U.S. Immigration Management Over 2.75 million foreign nationals have entered the U.S. without authorization in the current fiscal year, according to recent data released by U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP).

Earlier this month, four Venezuelan members of the Venezuelan Tren de Aragua gang who were arrested in Colorado were confirmed as illegal aliens, according to a statement made by an ICE spokesperson to Fox News. The Venezuelan nationals were in the age ranges of 19 through 24, and they all crossed the southern border via Texas illegally in 2022 and 2023, under the Biden regime’s watch. Aurora police arrested all four of them and ice placed detainer requests on two of the Venezuela nationals. The four Venezuelan nationals were arrested following a shooting which took place close to Nome Street...

The pledge comes one week after he visited New York City for the anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terrorist attacks. Former President Donald Trump on Wednesday announced that, as president, he would make Ground Zero in New York a national monument. "I am announcing tonight that as President, I will officially make the Ground Zero site at the World Trade Center a national monument protected and maintained by the United States government, so that hallowed ground and the memory of those who perish there will be preserved for all time, preserved forever," he said at a rally in Uniondale,...

During the presidential debate between President Donald Trump and Vice President Kamala Harris, debate moderators curiously failed to include a question about efforts to “reform” the Supreme Court. The Biden administration is proposing radical changes to the Court, which include ending life tenure for justices and giving Congress the power to oversee the Court’s ethics. Others are calling to expand the size of the Court by adding more seats. Those proposals would destroy judicial independence and the rule of law. They’re a threat to Americans’ civil liberties. “Court packing would not simply alter the structure of the Supreme Court—it would...

Ask any budget expert in Washington to explain the ballooning deficit and debt, and Social Security and Medicare will be high on the list of causes. That’s wrong. The real driver, the elephant in the room, is means-tested social-welfare spending—Medicaid, food stamps, refundable tax credits, Supplemental Security Income, Temporary Assistance for Needy Families, federal housing subsidies and almost 100 other programs whose eligibility is limited to those below an income threshold. True, Social Security and Medicare are a drain on general revenue and will become big fiscal problems if not reformed. But they aren’t the major source of our current...

Michigan’s Democrat-controlled Senate passed a package of four DIRTY election bills yesterday, referred to as the “State Voting Rights Act.” The bills, now heading to the Democrat-controlled House, have stirred controversy among critics asserting they represent a significant state government takeover of elections and threaten election integrity on a number of fronts, not the least of which is the special treatment afforded to “protected classes” of people. In addition, Senate Bills 401 through 404 shift control of elections from the legislature to the state’s courts and executive branch, giving the secretary of state unprecedented power over local governments. For example,...

California Gov. Gavin Newsom has signed a first-of-its-kind “deepfake” law after conservatives created a powerful and hilarious parody video mocking Kamala Harris’s candidacy. In a post on the X platform, Newsom confirmed that he had signed the bill after Elon Musk shared the anti-Kamala video using an altered version of her voice.
