A band of conservative hardliners on Tuesday blocked a procedural rule that would have teed up debate and final votes on a slate of legislation, dealing a blow to Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) as he aimed to advance the annual defense authorization bill this week. The lower chamber voted 198-224 to reject the rule, with 14 Republicans joining Democrats in opposing the measure due to objections about the SAVE America Act, the priorities of the House, and a niche pension issue. GOP Reps. Tim Burchett (Tenn.), Eric Burlison (Mo.), Eli Crane (Ariz.), Randy Fine (Fla.), Andy Harris (Md.), Anna Paulina...

Senator Raphael Warnock of Georgia, a Democrat, recently spoke to members of a synagogue in Los Angeles and claimed that transphobia is violence against humanity and divinity and an offense to the glory of God. First, transphobia is a stupid word. People who object to the trans agenda do not fear trans people. They just don't want it pushed on their kids in schools. They don't want their wives and daughters to have to share intimate spaces with biological men. Second, aren't trans people the ones who are denying God by interfering with His creation? They are the ones who...

It’s been a rough weekend for Scott Wiener. The California state senator, who is hoping to replace the retiring Nancy Pelosi in Congress later this year, was heading over to San Francisco’s Trans March last Friday when he was circled by a gaggle of radicals, some sporting keffiyehs and covering their faces. Yelling invectives and giving Wiener the finger, they accused the uber-progressive lawmaker — himself a gay man and one of the state’s most effective legislators on LGBTQ issues — of being “terrible on Gaza.” At some point, one of the thugs taunted Wiener, who is Jewish, about having...

Pete Buttigieg's harrowing swatting story from last week is now coming under scrutiny, suggesting he may not be telling the entire truth. As TGP's Jordan Conradson reported, Buttigieg claims he was swatted this week by Child Protective Service agents and separated from his four-year-old twins. Buttigieg ran to Substack to write a column about the incident. Describing himself as "bewildered and troubled," Buttigieg said that "the CPS worker told me something that made my stomach turn: I was not to be alone around the children, at least until the interview took place the next day." After a "sleepless night," he...
