Haitian migrants are still in the news, in spite of a second assassination attempt against Donald Trump. Millions of Americans are in disbelief that these Caribbean migrants are taking over Middle American towns. The Trump campaign is wisely focusing on this issue to highlight the disastrous immigration policies of the Biden-Harris administration. But some naysayers are emerging who say nothing can be done about this issue. Liberals love to point out that most of the Haitians are here legally. That’s made some conservatives feel the problem is unfixable and that the issue has turned into a toxic matter. Those blackpillers...

Rep. Bob Good, R-Va., will resign shortly as chairman of the House Freedom Caucus, a group of the chamber’s most conservative members, after losing his primary election. Good told reporters Monday that he had submitted his resignation to the caucus board, but didn’t provide a timeline for his official resignation as chairman. Sources familiar with the matter, however, told news outlets that Good’s resignation would become official by week’s end. In June, Good lost his primary in Virginia’s 5th Congressional District to his challenger, state Sen. John McGuire. McGuire had the endorsement of former President Donald Trump working on his...

Donald Trump on Fox News this morning: “I don't know that I want to do another debate." She crushed him.

Kid Rock is taking on a starring role at a Log Cabin Republicans fundraiser — the “All Summer Long” singer is poised to headline an event this month in Nashville for the group, which represents LGBTQ conservatives. The 53-year-old performer will appear at “Red White & Rock” on Sep. 29, the Log Cabin Republicans announced over the weekend. The group billed the fundraiser as a “star-studded concert uniting conservatives and celebrating American spirit.” The Log Cabin Republicans have also been championed by Melania Trump: The former first lady hosted her second fundraiser in a year for the organization in July....

Kamala Harris made a campaign stop on Saturday at a spice shop known to openly discriminate against Republicans while calling for an end to political “division.” The spice shop, Penzeys Spices in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, welcomed the Democrat nominee to browse the store and meet some supporters. While facing a gaggle of reporters, Harris claimed, “It’s time to turn the page on the divisiveness. It’s time to bring our country together, chart a new way forward.” “A lot of what I think is happening, and I was just talking with some folks here in Pittsburgh about it, is that people are...

Several New York Republicans are calling for an investigation into New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) after the arrest of a former top aide for working as an agent of influence of China. Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), Rep. Mike Lawler (R-NY), and Rep. Claudia Tenney (R-NY) were among the Republicans who have called for an investigation surrounding Linda Sun, 41, and her husband, Chris Hu, after federal prosecutors unsealed an indictment charging Sun, a naturalized American citizen who was born in China, conspiring to violate the Foreign Agents Registration Act, failure to register under the Foreign Agents Registration Act, money...

Former Rep. Adam Kinzinger (R-Ill.) expressed fresh frustration at his fellow Republicans on Wednesday in response to newly released video of then-Speaker Nancy Pelosi the day after the Jan. 6, 2021, Capitol riot, showing the California Democrat saying former President Trump has to “pay a price.” When asked to respond to footage showing Pelosi stressing that the National Guard should have been called earlier while stressing a focus on Trump in the riot’s aftermath, Kinzinger said the video evoked fresh memories of that day. “She was reacting how we all did, and it just kind of takes me back to...

Robert F. Kennedy Jr.’s endorsement of former President Donald Trump is a classic example of Ronald Reagan’s famous explanation for the change in his political allegiance: “I didn’t leave the Democratic Party, the Democratic Party left me.” And it has the power to tip the election in Trump’s favor, especially in the swing states that will decide it. Endorsements, while highly coveted by politicians, don’t usually change election outcomes, but this one feels different. Kennedy, a blue-blood Democrat from the nation’s most famous political dynasty, is speaking to many fellow “former Democrats” — especially newly activated moms like me. In...

Democrats and Republicans can agree on one thing coming out of their respective conventions: Almost no one cares about Covid anymore. Infections are running rampant after the Democratic confab in Chicago, with staffers on Vice President Kamala Harris’ campaign, reporters and other convention-goers all stricken — and in at least one case claiming the positive test was “worth it.” Cases also cropped up after the Republican National Convention in July. And yet the single most-animating issue of the 2020 election is an afterthought for the major-party nominees coming out of two of the 2024 campaign’s biggest milestones — even as...

In Wayne County Michigan, over 700 Republicans applied to be poll watchers and out of the 2,350 poll watchers they hired, only 50 out of the 700+ applicants were Republicans.

Let me stipulate for the record: The American press is an embarrassment. Journalists are being unfair in their coverage. CNN and Politico and the New York Times and the Associated Press and NBC Nightly News with Lester Holt and NPR News are hyping Kamala Harris as the second coming and putting a thumb, two hands, and a 45-pound dumbbell on the scales in an attempt to prop her up. It also doesn’t matter. None of it is remotely decisive. The reason why the Republican Party is, at the moment, on track to lose the 2024 election is that the Republican...

CLAIM: Former President Barack Obama suggested during his Democratic National Convention (DNC) speech Tuesday that former President Donald Trump and his Republican supporters — or as Obama called them, the “other side” — believe generosity is for “suckers.” VERDICT: FALSE. Statistically, Republicans are actually among the “heaviest” givers. Obama — who largely obsessed over Trump during his divisive speech to Democrats on Tuesday night, demonizing him and his supporters with surface level jabs — also attempted to cast the vision of the Democratic Party.

Tuesday on MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” host Joe Scarborough offered his thoughts on the Democratic National Convention in Chicago a night earlier. Scarborough touted the DNC as a “joyous occasion,” which he said was something the GOP “feared.” “You look at a convention like that — you can’t calculate it,” he said. “You have, in two Republican candidates, two guys who at least publicly, in their public persona, project misery. They are not happy. They’re always looking for retribution. They are looking for people to blame. They are looking for a reason to be upset.” “They are looking for a reason,...

My flak jacket is on as I write this since I am sure to offend or piss off some friends, family, and colleagues who are ostensibly Republicans or conservatives but have a visceral aversion to Donald Trump. Some tell me they are Republican and miss Ronald Reagan but also admit they “couldn’t” vote for Donald Trump in either 2016 or 2020. Nothing says one is Republican like voting for a liberal Democrat. This is the NeverTrump wing of the Republican Party, emerging shortly after Trump secured the GOP nomination in 2016. Reasons for NeverTrump-ism are myriad. Some were offended by...

Come November, every hunter, trucker and Amish person across the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania will have a ballot in their hands if the GOP’s expansive get-out-the-vote (GOTV) effort goes according to plan. For years there have been restrictions on how the Republican National Committee (RNC) and presidential campaigns could work with door-knocking groups. That all changed in March when a Federal Election Commission (FEC) advisory opinion eased restrictions on coordination between such groups. Now, a large portion of Republicans’ GOTV efforts are being outsourced to prominent conservative organizations, who are running an aggressive ground game across several states including Arizona, Wisconsin...

House Speaker Emerita Rep. Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Andrea Mitchell Reports” that some of her Republican colleagues have told her that if Vice President Kamala Harris can defeat Donald Trump, they can get “back to our debate on the issues.” Pelosi said, “Let’s just talk about the glory of Kamala and Tim, the promise that they have put out there, the enthusiasm.” Mitchell said, “You talk about John McCain and talking to him and he gave you a heads-up he was going to vote, the key vote to save The Affordable Care Act, Obamacare, so there used...

Former New Jersey governor helps launch Republicans for Harris By David Wildstein, August 04 2024 8:28 pm Former New Jersey Gov. Christine Todd Whitman was one of 24 Republican elected officials to endorse Democrat Kamala Harris for president on Sunday. “I was a proud Republican, but Donald Trump is unfit to lead our nation. We saw during his four years in office how he consistently chose himself, his pursuit of power, and his billionaire friends over the American people while spewing lies and spreading chaos at every turn,” said Whitman. “It’s time to move forward by electing Vice President Kamala...

Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg said Wednesday on MSNBC’s “Deadline” that he believed the Republican Party “long ago sacrificed their claim to be the party of family.” Buttigieg said, “It kind of classic projection, right? The very things he’s talking about, virtue, strength, security, family, those are all things that Trump’s Republican Party has completely abandoned, making any claim to. Virtue, really? In a party led by Donald Trump with the affairs and the porn stars and everything else that is associated with that guy. Security? When we’re talking about a party led by somebody who has been rolled repeatedly...
