TALLAHASSEE, FL — After an election night in which the Sunshine State successfully tallied all its votes within hours of the polls closing, Florida Governor Ron DeSantis explained to California Governor Gavin Newsom that the secret to counting ballots in one night is not committing fraud. Sources revealed that Newsom called DeSantis late Tuesday night to express amazement at Florida's vote-counting efficiency, with DeSantis helpfully responding to his fellow governor that tallying ballots is much faster and simpler without the widespread implementation of election fraud schemes. "You'd be shocked at how easy it actually is without all the fraud," DeSantis...

It’s the southern border all over again, only much quieter. Since the southern border is more secure many migrants are taking a flight from Mexico in to Canada (as they are both still part of the Global Compact for Migration) walk right in to these American ghost towns now pretty much ran by criminal organizations. It’s so vast and open that it’s...

Megyn Kelly tore into Sen. Jon Ossoff for dragging Trump aide Natalie Harp into an attack on the president — accusing the Georgia Dem of insinuating that the pair are having an affair without evidence and then refusing to own it. “I think … this is despicable because — why would you attack a 35-year-old cancer survivor as a possible affair partner to the president of the United States when you have absolutely nothing to back that up?” Kelly said on Tuesday’s edition of SiriusXM’s “The Megyn Kelly Show.” The former Fox News star was reacting to remarks Ossoff made...

Islam is playing chess with the West; their opening is a masterclass in “divide and conquer.” We need to see it, and win the game. The Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) insist upon an immediate, head-on collision between America and the Third World. And the DSA is hoping that through sheer strength of numbers, the Third World will win. Until now, America has been playing against the Third World’s junior varsity team. At least Latin America is Catholic, so illegals from there aren’t trying to subvert the fundamental Judeo-Christian nature of America. But now, we’re playing against the Third World...

Harold Ford Jr. is, by any honest measure, the smarter liberal who joins the table on Fox News' The Five. That's not saying much when the other option is Jessica Tarlov, but hey, it’s something. Tarlov is a party booster every step of the way. She pushes Democrats' talking points blindly. Ford is far more willing to call out his party when it deserves it, which he did on Tuesday, when he admitted that Democrats will lose if they embrace the DSA’s policies. "If we believe that the DSA, their ideas are the right ones for the country, then we're...

Convicted killer Karmelo Anthony has won his first legal battle as he seeks to have his conviction for killing Austin Metcalf thrown out.
