The Arizona Cardinals have apologized to a woman who was told she had to remove a "Make American Great Again" hat in order to enter State Farm Stadium for the team's game against the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday. The team confirmed it has reached out to the woman in a statement to Fox News Digital on Wednesday. The incident was initially publicized in a post on X by Turning Point Action Field Rep. VP Alyssa Goncales, who also posted alleged screenshots of text messages with other supposed attendees who were either also forced to remove MAGA hats or witnessed...

Since 2016, young American women have become significantly more liberal due to emotional responses to gender-related events that are largely superficial and detrimental. Last week, The New York Times featured an article titled: “How the Last Eight Years Made Young Women More Liberal.” According to every poll, since 2016, there has been an unprecedented political/social gender gap between young American women and men. Here is how the Times reported it: “In 2001, young men and women had similar political ideologies. … Then, around 2016, something shifted, a new analysis shows. Women ages 18 to 29 became significantly more liberal than...

Analysis In an unprecedented joint public appearance, CIA Director William Burns and MI6 Chief Richard Moore assert the enduring strength of their intelligence agencies Last week, the heads of major Western intelligence agencies made a striking public appearance, first with a provocative op-ed and then in a high-profile interview with the Financial Times editor. Although some questions remained unanswered, their statements provided critical insights into their covert and overt operations. William Joseph Burns, Director of the CIA, and Richard Peter Moore, head of MI6/SIS, both distinguished diplomats before their current roles, asserted with conviction that their organisations are more formidable...

Jim Sasser has died. The former U.S. senator, lawyer and military man who served as U.S. ambassador to China during the Bill Clinton administration was respected for his pleasant demeanor and quick intellect. He was 87. A former Tennessee Democratic Party chairman, Sasser served Tennessee in the U.S. Senate from 1977 to 1995, partly with Republican Howard Baker and partly with fellow Democrats Al Gore and Harlan Mathews. The state has seen no Democrat hold the position since Sasser left. Clinton appointed Sasser in 1996 to serve as the sixth U.S. ambassador to China.

Publicizing family squabbles - and why leftists aren’t normal people. So, Tim Walz’s family thinks he’s a schmuck, just like the troops he sort of served with until he abandoned them. We should encourage his family members to dish the dirt on him. Who knows what it is? Is he a liar and a scumbag around the Thanksgiving table, just like he is during this campaign on the rare occasions he speaks to somebody? The last time he ran as fast as he did when he got a question about how his Hamas friends murdered an American was when he...

As recently as 2011, Tim Walz claimed in official biographies for his campaign and congressional office that he was on the verge of completing a doctorate in education, a decade after he enrolled in a doctorate program at St. Mary’s University of Minnesota in the small town of Winona. The university, however, told the Washington Free Beacon that its last records indicating Walz was an active student are dated to 2004. "We can confirm that Governor Walz attended Saint Mary's from 2001-2004 in our doctorate level Ed.D. program," the school's communications director, Ashly Bissen, told the Free Beacon. "He did...

It is an interesting and somewhat macabre parlor game to play at a large gathering of one’s acquaintances: to speculate who in a showdown would go Nazi. By now, I think I know. I have gone through the experience many times—in Germany, in Austria, and in France. I have come to know the types: the born Nazis, the Nazis whom democracy itself has created, the certain-to-be fellow-travelers. And I also know those who never, under any conceivable circumstances, would become Nazis.

It's Red then White Then Blue. Democrats and the media in last place as always that's why they have to cheat to win anything.

Trump smiles at question about Congress doing shrooms, teases forthcoming drug policy on podcastHe didn’t want to trip up. Former President Donald Trump chuckled slightly at the notion of Congress doing shrooms to improve its performance when asked about his thoughts on psychedelics. Podcaster Lex Fridman suggested during an interview with Trump that “we would probably have a better world if everybody in Congress took some mushrooms” when pressing for his thoughts on the matter. “So we put out a statement the other day,” Trump replied, referencing his recent Truth Social post that spoke favorably of a marijuana ballot measure...

Yesterday I went to see Reagan. Excellent movie. Go see it.There is a scene in the movie after President Reagan is shot where he gets a hospital visit from Tip O'Neill. They pray together.Even as recently as a few years ago when a Bernie Sanders supporter tried to kill Republican Congressmen and injured Steve Scalise, members of both parties condemned the act and cheered Scaise's recovery.A few months ago, when President Trump was shot, Democrats' responses largely fell into three groups: deny that it happened, claim that Trump staged it, or wish that the shooter had better aim,What has happened...

The Democratic presidential candidate and America’s most prominent ‘conspiracy theorist’ talks about his family, the military-pharmaceutical complex, and our new system of social control first met Bobby Kennedy Jr. when he showed up one summer afternoon in 1976 at the door of my ordinary suburban home in the company of a friend from Harvard named Peter Shapiro, who was running for a seat in the New Jersey State Assembly. I was 9 years old, and not particularly thrilled about our family’s recent move from Brooklyn to a street of empty suburban lawns whose nearest point of interest was a candy...

The worst president in modern history has passed the baton to an even worse candidate, Kamala Harris. Harris is calling for government control of all commerce -- though she calls her plan “price controls” rather than communism. Her running mate, Tim Walz, is considerably less nuanced. He endorses communism as “people sharing with each other.” Kamala Harris has failed at every job she has held. She was the top law enforcement officer in San Francisco. It’s now a cesspool of crime, drug abuse, and homelessness. Then she took her San Fransisco policies statewide as the California Attorney General. Now one...

Rep. Albert Sommers (R-Pinedale) lost to a political newcomer in a close-fought contest for a state Senate seat Tuesday, an upset that ousts one of the most influential figures in Wyoming politics in recent years. Laura Taliaferro Pearson, a sheep rancher and school bus driver who lives north of Kemmerer, thanked the residents of her four-county district late on Tuesday as she held onto a small lead. The Associated Press called the race around 11 p.m., when Pearson topped Sommers by a 3.4% margin. “I’m thrilled to be a senator representing our great state,” she told WyoFile. “It means the...

From: dvan7 11:13 AM To: All (1 of 1) 5365.1 Evangelicals for Kamala? My goal here is not to discuss all of the political issues, but to show how critical this election is and what part evangelicals must play in it. Written by Larry Ball | Friday, August 16, 2024 The evangelical world still holds a powerful weapon in its hands. Because of the electoral college, what really matters in elections is what happens in each states. In 2020 Biden beat Trump in Arizona by 10,935 votes. In Georgia, Biden won by 14,152 votes. In Wisconsin, Biden won by 20,546...

Fireband Rep. Lauren Boebert has been hiding a massive stomach tattoo that explodes from her pelvic bone and stretches up her torso to her ribs, a shocking new photo shows. A revealing bikini pic showcasing the Republican congresswoman’s secret ink was exposed Thursday by her colleague Rep. Matt Gaetz’s wife — who has been sharing images of scantily-clad conservative women in support of Rep. Anna Paulina Luna, whose years-old swimsuit pics went viral this wee

The Minnesota National Guard has disputed Gov. Tim Walz’s claims about his military service, saying he did not retire as a command sergeant major as he has said. In a statement to Just The News, a spokesperson for the Minnesota National Guard confirmed that Walz retired as a master sergeant “in 2005 for benefit purposes because he did not complete additional coursework at the U.S. Army Sergeants Major Academy.” Walz claimed he retired from the National Guard as a command sergeant major; the claim even appears in his official biography on the Minnesota government’s website (archived here). Yet other veterans...

This essay was posted as a comment by “Daniel P” in response to an UnHerd piece titled “The revolt of the Rust Belt Democrats have squandered the white working class”. I was so impressed by Daniel’s alternative historical summary that I thought it worth cross-posting on Substack. Robert M. If I may, I would like to offer one old guys perspective on why we are where we are and where I think things are gonna go. The political issues we face today go back to the 1990’s and the end of the Cold War. The republicans were the party of...

Olympic bosses dramatically doubled down on their decision to allow two boxers who failed a gender test to compete in Paris - after the opponent of one withdrew from their bout in tears after just 46 seconds. Amid deeply disturbing scenes on the outskirts of Paris, Italy's distraught Angela Carini quit her contest with Algeria's Imane Khelif, who was disqualified from last year's World Championships after being deemed biologically male. The defeated welterweight was hit twice, suffered a suspected broken nose and barely threw a punch before telling her corner: 'It's not fair.' She then sank to her knees, beat...

WNBA and Olympian Diana Taurasi and Team USA Women’s Coach Cheryl Reeve used the Olympics to push Kamala Harris for president in an interview with USA Today. Taurasi is interviewed on video wearing her Team USA uniform shirt and saying that “a lot of us” see themselves in Harris. “More than anything, you know, for me, it’s policy,” Taurasi said of the most radically far-left candidate the Democrats have ever put up for the nomination, “What are you going to do for the people of America that need you?” “And I think there’s, you know, a big portion of us...
