Colorado's secretary of state's office said it had approved a recall petition targeting state Sen. Kevin Priola, whose term representing a suburban Denver district ends in 2025. Petitioners have until Nov. 8 to collect enough signatures to force an eventual recall vote. Priola infuriated Republicans when he announced his party switch in August, saying...

'The chief justice appointed an internal committee to oversee the investigation,' Justice Gorsuch told the 10th Circuit Bench and Bar Conference in Colorado Springs, according to the Wall Street Journal.

As mayor of Braddock, Pa., Senate hopeful John Fetterman (D.) ordered a police officer to dig up dirt on one of his political rivals, according to a town solicitor whom Fetterman later fired. In a heated 2009 mayoral campaign, Braddock solicitor Lawrence Shields accused Fetterman of "abuse of your mayoral authority" for ordering a Braddock cop to obtain a police report from a 2004 domestic incident involving Fetterman’s challenger, Jayme Cox. Braddock city council members called for Fetterman’s arrest for violating state laws regarding the handling of criminal information in cases where charges are dropped. Three years later, Fetterman cast...

One of the German diplomats who snickered when then-President Donald Trump said Germany would “become totally dependent on Russian energy” didn’t respond to a question on whether his views have changed as rising energy costs amidst the war in Ukraine seem to prove Trump right. Trump made the remarks during a speech to the United Nations General Assembly in Sept. 2018. Trump said during the same speech: “Reliance on a single foreign supplier can leave a nation vulnerable to extortion and intimidation.” At the time, Germany and the United States disagreed strongly about the construction of Russia’s Nord Stream 2...

Fuhrer Biden accused me of being just a Semi-Fascist. In order to become a full fledged Fascist in the Biden Fourth Reich, I will have to take some action. I could join the FDA, NIH, CDC, Surgeon General, WHO, Gates, etc. Mengele Death Cult which should elevate me as a full Fascist. Or I could join the DOJ/FBI American Gestapo which should also assure elevation. On a similar track, I could join the Judicial Whoredom of the End Justifies the Means when Lawfare rules over the scales of justice. Or maybe I could gain full Fascistness by joining the Intelligence/Industrial...

We constantly hear that electric cars are the future—cleaner, cheaper and better. But if they’re so good, why does California need to ban gasoline-powered cars? Why does the world spend $30 billion a year subsidizing electric ones? In reality, electric cars are only sometimes and somewhat better than the alternatives, they’re often much costlier, and they aren’t necessarily all that much cleaner. Over its lifetime, an electric car does emit less CO2 than a gasoline car, but the difference can range considerably depending on how the electricity is generated. Making batteries for electric cars also requires a massive amount of...

Will John Fetterman debate Dr. Mehmet Oz in Pennsylvania? The US Senate race in Pennsylvania was devolving into an absolute dumpster fire—and it could still go off the hinges—but things are starting to look more favorable for Oz in a state that’s been a cruel mistress to Republicans for over a quarter century. Some of it has to do with Fetterman’s positions getting more airtime, which includes ending life sentences for first-degree murderers, emptying one-third of Pennsylvania’s prisons, and an embarrassing incident where he chased down an unarmed black man with a shotgun. He’s also recovering from a stroke and...

Before going to work at MSNBC, Rick Stengel had been President Obama's Undersecretary of State for "Public Diplomacy." With the sort of "public diplomacy" Stengel displayed today, we're lucky he didn't touch off WWIII! Stengel appeared on Nicolle Wallace's MSNBC on Thursday, just after Brits Katty Kay and Keir Simmons made moving and emotion-laden statements about the passing of Queen Elizabeth. Stengel proceeded to announce that he was going to make himself "the skunk at the garden party." And man, did he deliver! Get the rest of the story and view the video here.

A book by a former top federal prosecutor offers new details about how the Justice Department under President Trump sought to use the US attorney’s office in Manhattan to support Trump politically and pursue his critics — even pushing the office to open a criminal investigation of former secretary of state John Kerry. The prosecutor, Geoffrey S. Berman, was the US attorney for the Southern District of New York for 2 1/2 years until June 2020, when Trump fired him after he refused a request to resign by then-Attorney General William Barr, who sought to replace him with an administration...

President Biden on Friday celebrated the groundbreaking of a new Intel factory in Ohio to produce semiconductors, tying the major investment directly to a bipartisan bill he signed into law last month to fund the chips. Biden visited Licking County, near Columbus, to join state and federal officials from both parties to tout the economic benefits of the $20 billion facility. Biden and business leaders on hand for the groundbreaking argued it was a sign of a shifting economy in the region. “It’s time to bury the label ‘Rust Belt,’” Biden said, instead suggesting the area should be rebranded as...
