Claudia Conway, 17, said she is 'not celebrating July 4th today' on Monday as she clapped back at a reporter who called her a 'potty mouth' for leading pro-abortion protests after the Supreme Court overturned Roe v. Wade. She urged Americans 'especially at a time like this not to buy into July 4th propaganda.' 'You know – 'land of the free.' We're not free,' she insisted. 'Why should we be celebrating independence when not all of us have independence?' Conway questioned during a rally she organized. 'And that's why we're out here fighting for our reproductive rights, challenging the overturn...

Voter enthusiasm might be the difference in Virginia's 7th Congressional District race between GOP incumbent Dave Brat and surging Democrat Abigail Spanberger, according to the latest poll from The Judy Ford Wason Center for Public Policy at Christopher Newport University.

Among the most committed voters, Spanberger's lead widens to 3 points 48-45 percent, albeit still within the margin. Voter turnout will decide this race and...

At a town hall last May in Blackstone, Va., congressman Dave Brat, representing that state’s seventh district, couldn’t get a word in edgewise. A comment about the importance of economic growth was met with jeers from the crowd of mostly women, many of whom were waving red rectangles of construction paper they had brought for the occasion. The town hall was one of many across the country that spring at which Republican congressmen were met with an angry reception, but Brat’s drew national attention. The congressman who had three years prior defeated House majority leader Eric Cantor on the back...

Spangberger's lead is just outside the poll's margin of error, which is 4.9 percentage points.

He had a great...

We’ve all heard the term “military brat” before. It pertains to those children who grew up in military families. “Brats” wear the name like a badge of honor, often because of the moves, stressors and cultural experiences that make them more resilient than their civilian counterparts.

Rep. Dave Brat is my rep. Yesterday, he posted an article to his constituents on his Facebook page.
