The election official overseeing voting in Arizona's most populous county told a friend last year that he was interested in pursuing a Senate run 'to make life hell for Kari [Lake]', according to court documents seen by DailyMail.com. As Maricopa County Recorder, Stephen Richer is in charge of the ballots that could decide whether Lake triumphs in her tight run for the Senate. But the comments will raise questions from allies of the conservative firebrand about whether he can be trusted to run a fair election. The explosive words come from the transcript of a June 21 deposition that will...

Stop me if you've heard this before. Officials within the United States government are conspiring against Donald Trump to undermine whatever decisions he may make. It might as well be 2017 again. According to a new report from Natasha Bertrand, who was such a purveyor of the Russian collusion hoax that she was nicknamed "Fusion Natasha" after Fusion GPS, Pentagon officials are coordinating how they'll respond if Trump orders U.S. troops to assist with illegal immigration: Pentagon officials are holding informal discussions about how the Department of Defense would respond if Donald Trump issues orders to deploy active-duty troops domestically...

I love The Washington Post, deep in my bones. Last month marked my 40th year of proud work for the institution, in the newsroom and in the Opinions section. I have never been more disappointed in the newspaper than I am today, with the tragically flawed decision not to make an endorsement in the presidential race.At a moment when The Post should have been stepping forward to sound the clarion call about the multiple dangers that Donald Trump poses to the nation and the world, it has chosen instead to pull back. That is the wrong choice at the worst...

There is some serious drama unfolding at CBS News after one of its anchors committed an act of journalism – no, definitely not at last week's vice presidential debate – and the guilty party will now face his comeuppance at the hands of the DEI judge and jury. Here's what's going on. Tony Dokoupil, anchor of CBS's morning show – aptly named "CBS Mornings" – recently interviewed radical leftist Ta Nahesi-Coates, an outspoken proponent of reparations. Nahesi-Coates was appearing on the show to promote his new book, "The Message," which The Free Press calls "a masterpiece of warped arguments and...

ATF agents cut off the electricity to Bryan Malinowski's Little Rock home before executing their search warrant March 19. None of the agents wore body cameras, and they covered Malinowski's doorbell camera with tape to hide their actions. Fifty-seven seconds after kicking down the front door, Malinowski was fatally shot in the head. His wife, Maer Malinowski, was pulled out of her home wearing only bedclothes and forced into the back of a squad car, where she was held against her will for four hours in 34-degree weather, despite her frequent pleas to check on her dying husband. "If that...

Russia has charged dozens of Ukrainian soldiers with 'crimes against humanity' and wants them tried by an international tribunal led by Syria and Iran, the country's top investigator has said. Alexander Bastrykin, who heads the Russian Investigative Committee, said 92 Ukrainian 'commanders and subordinates' have been charged with 'crimes against the peace and security of mankind' over the war. Another 96 people, including 51 of Ukraine's top commanders, have been put on a wanted list which includes politicians and 'nationalists', Bastrykin added. The 68-year-old said it is 'extremely doubtful' whether the men could be prosecuted by the United Nations, due...

(snip) NIH Director Francis Collins has a stern message for the American public: The country has, what he called, an epidemic of misinformation and disinformation. And it’s fueling a dangerous distrust in science. “Conspiracies are winning here. Truth is losing. That’s a really serious indictment of the way in which our society seems to be traveling,” said Collins, who will soon step down as the National Institutes of Health director after serving in both Republican and Democratic administrations.

“This heartbreaking verdict is a miscarriage of justice and sets a dangerous precedent which justifies federal review by DOJ.”The left’s reaction to Kyle Rittenhouse being acquitted of all charges was predictable and not particularly creative. According to them, he deserves to die, rot in hell, yadda, yadda, yadda. But one Democrat is taking things further by calling on the Biden DOJ to consider federal charges against Rittenhouse. Rep. Jerry Nadler, who is chairman of the House Judiciary Committee, tweeted his call for a federal review just hours after the jury’s verdict was announced. Many on the left, who so nonchalantly...
