Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-Alaska) trolled her Republican opponent Kelly Tshibaka after she took a lead in the first-place votes for the state’s Senate race. Alaska’s ranked-choice voting system means voters ranked the candidates from first place to last. A candidate must win a majority of first-place votes to win outright without additional rounds being needed.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) joined the chorus of Republicans calling for a delay on any Senate leadership votes until after the Georgia runoff. Graham announced in a tweet on Sunday a vote prior to the Georgia runoff would be unfair to Republican Herschel Walker if he were to beat Raphael Warnock. In light of [the Georgia senate] runoff, it would be appropriate to delay Senate leadership elections until we know who is in the Senate Republican Conference. I totally agree with Senator [Ted Cruz] that to do otherwise would be disrespectful to [Herschel Walker].”

Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump · 4h It’s Mitch McConnell’s fault. Spending money to defeat great Republican candidates instead of backing Blake Masters and others was a big mistake. Giving 4 Trillion Dollars to the Radical Left for the Green New Deal, not Infrastructure, was an even bigger mistake. He blew the Midterms, and everyone despises him and his otherwise lovely wife, Coco Chow!

Twenty-one year incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) and Republican challenger Kelly Tshibaka advanced on Wednesday to the final found of ranked-choice tabulation after neither candidate reached the 50 percent threshold in the first round.

The Biden Administration will be known to history for many things: an open border and its deadly consequences, the abandonment of Afghanistan, weakness that led to catastrophe in Europe, skyrocketing inflation, and the use of federal law enforcement to target political opponents. ... American people must deliver to Joe Biden an unequivocal message: that they refuse to be gaslit, that they are not buying what he is selling. .... Biden’s open border. The reversal of Trump-era border enforcement, and his effective encouragement of illegal border crossings, has led to widespread human suffering. ... Americans are dying, too, as toxic fentanyl...

During A 11/6/22 Speech, Joe Biden Declares He's For "No More Drilling" Just Days Before Midterm Elections

Former President Donald Trump released an ad urging voters to support America First Republican candidates to “help save America,” just days before next week’s midterm elections. The video starts with audio of Trump saying that next week’s election is a “referendum” on President Joe Biden, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D), and Democrat Senate Leader Chuck Schumer (D).” “The radical left Democrat Congress is destroying our country,” Trump said. “You’re going to elect an incredible slate of True America First Republicans up and down the ballot.” The video displayed text encouraging voters to vote Republican while the montage of Trump’s audio...

Kelly Tshibaka is a STAR for Alaska, which is trying to get rid of one of the WORST Senators in existence, Lisa Murkowsky. Kelly has my Complete and Total Endorsement and is leading in the Polls, but the Old Broken Crow, Mitch McConnell, a puppet for China along with his “wife,” Coco Chow, is pouring millions into the State so that his political Hack, “Impeacher”Lisa Murkowsky, can sneak out a victory under corrupt Rank Choice voting. Shady Mitch should use that money for other R’s. VOTE KELLY!

Twenty-one-year incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) has said she will vote for Democrat House candidate Rep. Mary Peltola (D-AK) over Republican challenger former Gov. Sarah Palin. “Yeah, I am,” Murkowski responded Friday when asked by the Anchorage Daily News if she would vote for the Democrat. Alaska uses the ranked choice voting system, which ultimately affords Democrat voters the opportunity to vote for Murkowski on the second and third ballots. Murkowski’s decision to vote for a Democrat is likely intended to attract more votes down-ballot to ultimately defeat Trump-endorsed Senate Republican candidate Kelly Tshibaka, who is leading in the polls...

Republican-In-Name-Only (RINO) Lisa Murkowski has represented Alaska in the Senate for 21 years. But luckily for America, she could soon be out of there — at least if a recent Five Thirty-Eight Prediction is true. According to Five Thirty-Eight, the Trump-backed Kelly Tshibaka is beating the notorious RINO Lisa Murkowski in 53 of 100 simulated contests between the two candidates. Five Thirty-Eight is a very renowned polling aggregation site that has a Left-Center bias — it is not a MAGA-friendly site by any stretch of the imagination. These results are compelling. The MAGA movement is not just about beating the...

In my opinion, the Jan. 6 Committee has had two main aims that have nothing to do with the riot, justice, or “threats to democracy.”It’s always been about trying to damage President Donald Trump so that he can’t run or win again, and to hurt the Republicans’ chances in the midterms.If you understand it through that lens, then you know that they are largely admitting defeat on one of those major goals with their latest action.Committee Chair Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MI) said that they would not be putting out a report until after the election. They will be having a...

Samsung statement: “ We can confirm that none of our employees at Samsung Ukraine has been hurt. Some of the office windows were damaged due to the impact from the blast that occurred 150 meters away.

It is said that it is one of the company’s biggest R&D offices in Europe and the company’s regional headquarter....

Republican Senator Lindsey Graham once told an ex-Capitol police officer who was badly injured in the January 6 insurrection that he should have used his gun to shoot Trump supporters who were rioting in the head, a new memoir reveals.Michael Fanone, who used to work for the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia from 2001 until 2021, said the South Carolina politician offered his two cents on the situation when they first met in May 2021 - four months after the attack.'You guys should have shot them all in the head,' recalled Fanone in his memoir 'Hold the...

Ex-DC and Capitol cop Michael Fanone said Graham spoke to him in May 2021 Both men were in a meeting involving Republican support for an investigation into the January 6 insurrection Fanone told Graham that Capitol law enforcement officials have to abide by certain rules preventing them from using assault weapons in certain situations Capitol Police officer Harry Dunn and the family of Brian Sicknick, who was a cop killed a day after last year's riots, were also present during the meeting The conversation occurred just four months after the Capitol was under attack Republican Senator Lindsey Graham once told...

Conservatives are turning against each other in part because they have won the battle for control of the Republican Party. The centrists are routed, and liberals in the mold of Jacob Javits, the four-term GOP senator from New York, are as extinct as the Federalists or the Whigs. As late as 2006, Sen. Lincoln Chafee (R-RI), with a lifetime American Conservative Union rating of 35.95%, could win a Republican primary against a conservative challenger. He is now in at least his fourth partisan configuration since that election. Sen. Arlen Specter (R-PA) beat his eventual successor, Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA), in...

Kelly Tshibaka, the Alaska Senate candidate endorsed by former President Donald Trump, has received more in-state donations than her rival, 21-year incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska, according to OpenSecrets. So far, 85% of Murkowski's 2022 cycle donations have come from out of state. As Opensecrets outlines, the Alaskan Republican senator has raised $5,284,321 from out-of-state donors. Only 15%, or $929,774, has been donated by in-state contributors. Breitbart reported the large influx from out-of-state donations raises questions about where the senator's, who voted to impeach Trump, loyalties lie. In contrast, Tshibaka has received $1,349,384 or 55% of her donations from in-state...

Former South Carolina governor and U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley has taken donations through her nonprofit group from prominent Democrat donors, out-of-touch RINO elites who bankrolled the corrupt America Last GOP before Trump showed up, and members of the globalist establishment, according to documents obtained by Politico.Some of the donations Haley’s nonprofit received came from vulture capitalist Paul Singer, hedge fund investor Stanley Druckenmiller, and late casino mogul Sheldon Adelson along with his wife. Singer has destroyed American communities for profit and funded a great deal of woke causes while neutering the Republican Party with his donations.In...

Pro-impeachment and 21-year incumbent Sen. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK) embraced another Democrat talking point over the weekend intended to divide the Republican Party from former President Donald Trump. “I just want to make sure that our party doesn’t become a party of an individual,” she told the Wall Street Journal in an article titled “Lisa Murkowski Bets on Infrastructure to Keep Alaska Senate Seat, Deny Trump Revenge.” Murkowski’s careful line of attack resembles the establishment media’s public relations campaign to frame Trump as a cult leader. Such claims, amplified by congressional Democrats, are unfounded. But that has not prevented the Republican...

Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) has reportedly changed his mind on Republican chances of retaking control of the Senate in the midterm elections. Previously in doubt that Sen. Rick Scott’s (R-FL) plan at the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) would yield positive results, McConnell was cautiously optimistic Republicans will gain the majority, the Chamber of Commerce told Axios. McConnell attended a closed-door meeting on Monday at the chamber, where he said Republicans’ chances of retaking the Senate have improved. McConnell has previously claimed it was more likely Republicans would retake the House than the Senate. McConnell’s words are notable because he...

Democrats are pumping an unprecedented amount of money into advertising related to abortion rights, underscoring how central the message is to the party in the final weeks before the November midterm elections. With the most intense period of campaigning only just beginning, Democrats have already invested more than an estimated $124 million this year in television advertising referencing abortion. That’s more than twice as much money as the Democrats’ next top issue this year, “character,” and almost 20 times more than Democrats spent on abortion-related ads in the 2018 midterms. The estimated spending figures, based on an Associated Press analysis...
