    Gerrymandering wars heat up as both parties redraw districts to cement power, with Republicans flipping liberal tactics and Democrats scrambling to keep their edge. Gerrymandering, the political practice of carving up awkward-looking legislative districts to benefit one party’s political power, has slithered into the public conversation once again. Some of us remember the history behind this political practice, starting with the governor of Massachusetts, Elbridge Gerry. Democratic-Republicans want to shore up their new power in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Federalist opponents of the maneuver mocked one of the serpentine-like districts created by the party, christening the shape with claws, wings,...
  • ‘Get out of town!’: Staten Island crowd confronts Zohran Mamdani at anti-Trump rally

    Not everyone was eager to welcome New York City's Democratic mayoral nominee, Zohran Mamdani, to Staten Island on Wednesday afternoon. "Go back to where you came from. We don't want you on Staten Island," a protester wearing a "Trump girl" t-shirt and holding an American flag shouted at the 33-year-old self-described socialist as he exited the backdoor of the Istanbul Bay Authentic Mediterranean Restaurant. Inside the event, as Mamdani kicked off his third anti-Trump event of the week, protesters outside the restaurant drowned out the introductory speeches with their cowbells, sirens and megaphones. Despite the heat in the crowded restaurant...

    The Hill ^ | 08/14/25 6:00 AM ET | by Emily Brooks and Mike Lillis
    The Capitol Hill battle over Jeffrey Epstein is poised to heat up when Congress returns to Washington next month. While GOP leaders left town early to avoid the radioactive issue, the conspiracy-ridden saga is set to ramp back up come September for a number of reasons. A bipartisan pair of lawmakers have vowed to force a vote on their resolution requiring the administration to release the federal files it’s withholding and plan to bring survivors of Epstein’s abuse to Capitol Hill in the first days of Congress’s return. Separately, a number of court cases surrounding the fate of those files...

  • Who Has Been Busy Destroying Democracy?

    American Greatness ^ | 14 Aug, 2025 | Victor Davis Hanson
    Democrats decry “destroying democracy” while dismantling long-standing institutions, weaponizing agencies, and undermining the very systems they claim to defend. "Destroying democracy”—the latest theme of the left—can be defined in many different ways. How about attempting to destroy constitutional, ancient, and hallowed institutions simply to suit short-term political gains? So, who in 2020, and now once again, has boasted about packing the 156-year-old, nine-justice Supreme Court? Who talks frequently about destroying the 187-year-old Senate filibuster—though only when they hold a Senate majority? Who wants to bring in an insolvent left-wing Puerto Rico and redefine the 235-year-old District of Columbia—by altering the...

    American Thinker ^ | 14 Aug, 2025 | John F. Di Leo
    President Trump has appointed E.J. Antoni, an economist from the Heritage Foundation, to head up the Bureau of Labor Statistics. This is an extremely challenging job because the traditional approach -- not going back months, but decades -- has always been terribly partisan. It is, almost by definition, based more on a ton of subjective opinions than on any actual objective facts. The press -- even the allegedly business-minded publications, which ought to know better -- is slamming President Trump for firing the last BLS chief, claiming that she was fired only “because last month's numbers weren't to his liking.”...

    resh bodycam footage shows sprinter Sha'Carri Richardson branding her boyfriend Christian Coleman a 'coward' - and even accusing him of assaulting her - before she was arrested. Richardson, the reigning 100m world champion was detained last month for allegedly attacking her fellow sprinter at Seattle-Tacoma International Airport. The 25-year-old was arrested on a fourth-degree domestic violence offense and booked into the South Correctional Entity (SCORE) in Des Moines, Washington, for more than 18 hours.

    The Virginia Beach City Council is trying to ban shops along the famous boardwalk from displaying clothing with raunchy slogans to 'clean up' the family-friendly resort. The southeastern Virginia coastal city has long attracted families for its abundance of activities for all ages and stunning shores. But its three-mile oceanfront boardwalk has always been the star of the show for its games, restaurants and stores.

    SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (KELO) — Ten South Dakota Department of Correction inmates will be deported as part of Operation Prairie Thunder and after approval by the South Dakota Board of Pardons and Paroles Wednesday. According to a news release from Republican Gov. Larry Rhoden, the inmates will be transferred to U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) custody for deportation proceedings, ensuring they are not released back into South Dakota communities. “South Dakota taxpayers should not have to foot the bill for illegal alien criminals,” Rhoden said in the news release. The inmates that were paroled for deportation include: Jose Sanchez...

    Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA) head and new overseer of DC police Terry Cole outlined the Trump administration’s “unified effort” for reducing violent crime in the nation’s capital after meeting with the police chief Tuesday. “We cannot afford to turn a blind eye,” Cole told “The Story.” “We have tremendous cooperation, tremendous intel sharing, and what’s most encouraging, the police are looking forward to doing their job again.” President Donald Trump federalized Washington, DC’s Metropolitan Police Department (MPD) Monday, enabling federal agencies and the National Guard to supervise local police but not make arrests themselves. On Monday night, 850 National Guard...
  • Trump foe Thomas Massie wins over MAGA allies with his push for Epstein files

    .... Massie also has an ally in Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., a fellow self-described libertarian who describes Massie as a good friend. “I’m a big supporter of his, and vice versa. I’m planning a 10-city tour with him in September to support him, and we will do what it takes. We both represent sort of the liberty wing of the Republican Party,” Paul said. “We want to make sure that we don’t allow anybody to come in and try to defeat him.” Paul is the only GOP senator who voted against Trump’s megabill because of debt concerns, but, unlike Massie,...

    “That’s our story, and we’re sticking to it.” It’s hard to believe that the Russiagate plotters are so stupid, but the declassified documents tumbling out of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s files show that, while they had a lot of power and managed to hide their nefarious activities for almost a decade, President Barack Obama’s henchmen were none too bright. The latest tranche of declassified emails has Obama’s DNI, James Clapper, telling then-Director of the National Security Agency Mike Rogers essentially to shut up and put his name to the intelligence community assessment (ICA) that Clapper and then-CIA Director...

    This is not the first time Waters has used such rhetoric. In March, Waters stated that she was “worried that Trump is on the edge of creating a civil war.” “He alluded to it more than once. He alluded to the fact that if he did not get re-elected, there could be a civil war,” Waters said at the time. Waters’ remarks come as Customs and Border Protection (CBP) report record-breaking lows in terms of border crossings in the month of July, thanks to Trump’s crackdown on illegal immigration. …

    COURTLAND, Ala. (WHNT) — A major American defense contractor is expanding its operations in North Alabama by bringing another large facility to a small town in Lawrence County.

Lockheed Martin said the spacious building will help advance defense systems in Courtland. The building is being built for the Next Generation Interceptor program. Lockheed Martin’s website says with the NGI program, the mission is to “develop, produce and deliver a...

    Classic Song of the Day ^ | Michael Miller
    Yesterday’s classic song of the day was the 5th Dimension’s recording of “Puppet Man.” Sticking with the puppet theme, today’s classic song of the day is “I’m Your Puppet” by James & Bobby Purify. Released in September of 1966, the single went to #6 on the Billboard Hot 100 and #5 on Billboard’s R&B chart. It was also nominated for a Grammy Award for Best Rhythm & Blues Group Performance, losing to the now-forgotten “Hold It Right There” by Ramsey Lewis. James & Bobby Purify were a pair of singing cousins from Florida, James Purify and Robert Lee Dickey. They...
