Speaking anonymously to far-left NBC News, Kamala Harris campaign staffers say they are concerned about losing the swing states of Michigan and North Carolina. As you will see below, the loss of those two states would narrow Kamala’s path to victory considerably. On-the-record staffers claim to be bullish about these must-win states, but campaigns that believe they are about to lose leak this kind of DoomSpeak, and that appears to be what we have here: “There has been a thought that maybe Michigan or Wisconsin will fall off,” said a senior Harris campaign official, who stressed that the bigger concern...

The anti-Israel uprisings at colleges across the country have featured violence (from both sides), vandalism, unlawful occupations known as “encampments,” and many other acts that go well beyond free speech. And now, at the University of Michigan, this radical protest movement just crossed the line into dangerous new territory. This week, agitators reportedly showed up at the homes of University of Michigan Board of Regents members in the middle of the night, invading their private property. They chanted on their lawns and brought with them fake corpses, faux bloodied sheets, and lists of demands, including, bizarrely, completely unrelated desires such...

The Democratic Party's campaign arm dedicated to state legislative races is investing hundreds of thousands of dollars across seven states in an early salvo ahead of November's election, part of its plan to spend a record-setting $60 million to capture statewide power at a time of congressional gridlock.

A poll from the Detroit News/WDIV-TV released Wednesday found that out of 600 Michiganian respondents, just 17% believed Biden deserves another term in the White House.

The Orion plant produced the Chevrolet Bolt EV and Bolt EUV crossover, and GM is planning...

In August, the Gateway Pundit exclusively reported on police reports that emerged from the City of Muskegon Michigan and from the Michigan State Police that documented 10,000-12,000 suspicious voter registration applications turned into City of Muskegon Clerk Ann Meisch. These reports, and the fact they are ongoing, show that there was widespread, systemic, ongoing voter registration fraud in a major battleground state in the 2020 elections, and that major Democrats in Law Enforcement knew it. GBI Strategies was a huge part of the Biden machine. Yet far-left zealots like Michigan’s Attorney General Dana Nessel have repeatedly lied and said there...

Dearborn, Michigan – Following the shocking terror attack in Israel by Hamas, which claimed the lives of over 1,000 innocent people and took dozens hostage, a controversial Islamic rally occurred in Dearborn, Michigan. The event, hosted at the Ford Community and Performing Arts Center, attracted hundreds of Islamic supremacists.

Commissioner Doug Zylstra was the sole no vote. Commissioner Roger Bergman was absent. The board heard a little more than five hours of public comment prior to the vote, with a majority of the 102 residents who spoke being opposed to the constitutional county resolution. The passage of the resolution, however, was met with resounding applause. While the resolution is largely symbolic, the board is now resolved to not to...
