LINCOLN, Neb. (Nebraska Examiner) - Late last month at the Lancaster County Election Commission, Nebraska Secretary of State Bob Evnen observed logic and accuracy testing for ballot-counting machines as part of his “transparency tour” across multiple counties in the state. Evnen, standing behind half-height voting booths, said every single ballot tabulator in the state is tested three times a month before every election — and that the state will conduct a typical hand-counted audit after the primary election, selecting random precincts to spot check. He called Nebraska elections the “gold standard,” pointing to a new state law that allows political...

Speaking in an interview that followed his primary election defeat in Texas, where MAGA voters ousted him and replaced him with the far better Steve Toth, longtime anti-Trump RINO Dan Crenshaw went on an angry and conspiratorial rant in which he claimed that Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX), of all people, had stirred up anti-RINO sentiment against him. In the interview, Crenshaw began his angry and conspiratorial rambling about why he lost with commentary about how it is mean that conservatives don’t like him, saying, “There’s nothing, especially conservatives, there’s nothing they love more than to tear down their own and...

This marks the end of a process that began a few years ago when the school began to face the possibility of such a decision. Located in central Massachusetts, Hampshire College is a progressive institution that makes...

Eric Swalwell resigns from Congress, complains that his colleagues in the House were denying him "due process" with an expulsion vote days after a former staffer accused him of sexual assault

I am suspending my campaign for Governor. To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past. I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s.

The network announced it was pulling the plug on the iconic program last year because of "financial reasons," and said the decision to end the show after 10 seasons was not a reflection on the years-long host. Colbert has confirmed that he is not being replaced by the network, but that it is instead eliminating the entire program. CBS said the new program will debut on May 22, the day after Colbert's show is expected to release...

Almost a year ago, we learned that more than half of Leftist women between the ages of 18 and 29 have at least one diagnosed mental illness. It shows. There's a reason we refer to them as AWFULs — Affluent White Female Urban Leftists — after all. Now a significant number of those women between the ages of 15 and 44 want to leave the U.S. and move permanently overseas, according to Gallup.

With the return of President Donald Trump to the White House, panicked liberals fearful of a Fascism that never seems to happen outside of their fervid imaginations are seeking an escape route via obtaining foreign citizenship. Also key to their escape from Orange Man Bad is getting foreign passports as chronicled on Monday in the New Yorker by Lauren Markham, "Seeking a Second Passport."The subtitle only adds to the hilarity of their inflated paranoia: "For some Americans, citizenship in a country their ancestors fled is now an insurance plan."

Trump celebrated the news of Mueller's passing, writing on Truth Social: 'Good, I’m glad he’s dead. He can no longer hurt innocent people!'
