Chants of "USA!" rang out before founder, chairman, and CEO Michael Seifert rang the legendary opening bell, signaling the beginning of a new chapter for the patriotic online marketplace.

Until the end of April, J.D. Vance's storied career as a self-made Middle-American memoirist, conservative firebrand, and venture capitalist risked sputtering out as a third-place also-ran in Ohio's Republican Senate primary. All of that changed with Russia's invasion of Ukraine, a single debate, and the singular resolve of Vance, and also that of former President Donald Trump and his son, to stand against dragging America into yet another war and neocons like Josh Mandel.

Prominent right-wing tweeters have seen their follower counts shoot up since Elon Musk took over, sparking claims their accounts had been suppressed by woke Twitter staffers. Meanwhile, leading left-wing figures including Barack Obama as well as Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez have seen huge slumps since news of Musk's purchase. Donald Trump Jr, who has 7.7 million followers, saw his followers surge by 87,296 on Tuesday and suggested the increase was due to an algorithm tweak targeting prominent conservative voices ahead of Musk's arrival.

Mitt Romney (R-UT) as one of those “squishy” Republicans....

Is the former President's son a credible DeSantis alternative? One poll says yes. Most polling of the still hypothetical 2024 Republican presidential Primary race shows Donald Trump atop the field, with Gov. Ron DeSantis running second and winning outright when the former President is excluded from the field. The latest Morning Consult/POLITICO survey is consistent with both of those trends, yet it shows that if the former President does not run in 2024, his namesake son would be competitive even with DeSantis. Former President Trump was the choice of 49% of the 390 registered Republican voters surveyed last week, with...

Okay? They won’t. And this will be contrary to a lot of our beliefs because — I’d love not to have to participate in...
