And so, the indictments on the fraud front just keep rolling in, and yes, this is what we voted for. In the latest, 15 people have been indicted in a fraud scheme in (where else) Minnesota, that may have seen the alleged perps defraud the American taxpayers to the tune of $90 million. That is, as someone once said, a big freakin' deal. Director Patel's post is on the long side for X, but it's worth the look: That's a good thing; these indictments should be followed by a swift trial and, if the accused are convicted, lengthy prison terms.

The DNC’s 2024 Autopsy Is Here, and

The DNC has finally released its 2024 election autopsy, and if you were hoping for a moment of genuine Democratic self-reflection, prepare to be disappointed. The report took forever to see the light of day, and DNC Chairman Ken Martin's explanation for the delay was something else. "When I received the report late last year, it wasn't ready for primetime — not even close — and because no source material was provided, it would have meant starting over. I could not in good faith put the DNC's stamp of approval on the report that was produced,"

Is there something in the water right now? Yet another massive fraud scheme has been dragged into the sunlight, this one from Ohio, and the reported numbers are staggering. Possibly, in the billions. First, the Daily Wire's Luke Rosiak, earlier in May, blew the lid off what he describes as widespread fraud and abuse, posting the results of his investigation on X. Incentives matter. This particular program is not just asking for fraud; it's down on its knees begging for fraud, so we shouldn't be surprised when people answer the call. This may as well have been an engraved invitation. Here are just a few of the things Mr. Rosiak uncovered:

Five people in Greater Manchester have been arrested over allegations of fraud linked to the local elections in Tameside involving the alleged fielding of fake independent candidates to split the anti-Labour vote. The Telegraph has the story. It follows an investigation by the Manchester Mill website, which claimed fake independent candidates were put forward by the Tameside Labour group in a bid to split votes for opposition parties. Manchester Mill reported allegations that internal messages had been posted in WhatsApp groups connected to the party, discussing planting fake independent candidates on the ballot paper.

With the 2026 midterm primary season coming into high gear, most in the media have focused on recent races in which longtime incumbent Republicans like Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) and U.S. Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (KY-4) have lost their reelection bids. While those elections certainly deserve attention, a more significant development is the fact that the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) is mobilizing their hundreds of “chapters” to “prepare for a busy election season in 2026.” So far, the “DSA’s ambitious electoral agenda in 2026” includes nearly “90 endorsees, including more than a dozen congressional candidates.”

Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) Director Kash Patel announced that a former Department of Justice (DOJ) U.S. attorney was charged with stealing “confidential investigation documents” relating to former special counsel Jack Smith’s investigation of President Donald Trump. In a post on X, Patel revealed that Carmen Lineberger, 62, had “allegedly emailed the confidential material” to her personal email, and in an effort to cover them up “from record searches,” they were labeled as “dessert recipes.” “”This afternoon, a former managing assistant U.S. Attorney who supported Jack Smith’s politicized investigation of President Trump has been charged with stealing the confidential investigation documents,” Patel said.

President Donald Trump's Department of Education is approaching skill and education access at two different levels, the post-graduate level and in the critical skilled trades, according to Education Secretary Linda McMahon. On Monday, McMahon spotlighted a critical U.S. workforce challenge: for every five skilled trades workers retiring, only about two are entering the field. Without intervention, the nation could face a shortfall of roughly 2.1 million jobs by 2030.Under McMahon's leadership and the direction of President Donald Trump, the newly implemented Workforce Pell Grant program is a direct response, aiming to train Americans quickly for high-demand, high-wage careers.

Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger failed Tuesday night to clinch enough votes for one of the two spots in the runoff for the Republican primary for Georgia governor, losing to Lt. Gov. Burt Jones and health care executive Rick Jackson. Raffensperger secured just 14% of the vote, according to the Associated Press, compared to Jones' 37% and Jackson's 34%. Jones is considered the favorite to win the nomination after President Donald Trump endorsed his campaign. Another closely watched race in Georgia is its Senate race, where Republicans are hoping to defeat Democratic Sen. Jon Ossoff in November.
The Plan to Eliminate Israel 6 replies

The newly uncovered message reveals that the October 7 invasion was never intended to be a limited or isolated terrorist attack. It was conceived as the opening phase of a much broader regional war aimed at destroying Israel and replacing it with an Islamist entity backed by the Iranian regime and its proxies. According to documents captured by the IDF, Hamas leaders had already begun formulating plans for a multi-front war against Israel as early as 2022. Additional evidence of this strategic coordination emerged two months ago, with details leaked regarding a highly aggressive secret letter reportedly sent by Hamas leaders to Iran's new Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei.

Apocalyptic climate-change predictions were box-office gold for Hollywood but they did untold damage to the public psyche, economy and the average man’s pocketbook. Now the United Nations’ influential climate change committee has quietly discarded the dire temperature-rise scenarios used in two previous reports predicting horrific consequences of global warming if greenhouse emissions weren’t curbed. For years, lefty outfits — based on dubious climate science — screamed about the coming climate catastrophe: The New York Times warned that “Climate Change Is Harming The Planet Faster Than We Can Adapt,” “Climate Change Is Speeding Toward Catastrophe” and “A Hotter Future Is Certain.”

The story plays out the same way virtually every time. Democrats, egged on by the increasingly powerful progressive base, push some obviously unconstitutional scheme that they contended is needed to preserve “democracy.” The courts inevitably knock down the ploy. Frustrated, Democrats ratchet up the anger, promising to “reform” the judiciary that stands in their way. Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.) recently argued on the House floor that the next Democratic White House “does not need a court reform commission like some college seminar. We need action. We need term limits for justices. We need to expand this morally bankrupt Supreme Court from 9 to 13.” Do we? Great, let’s do it today.

The Democratic Party’s dominance of the Golden State may be waning. More than 900,000 ballots turned in by early voters in the June 2 primary show more than a three-fold surge in Republican votes compared to the last governor’s race four years ago, according to newly released data. Data linked in a post over the weekend from the research firm Political Data (PDI) showed that “out of 905,889 ballots that have been returned, 37% were from Republicans, with Republican returns up 11% compared to the same stage of the 2022 midterms.” the California Post reported.

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) was among the four Republican Senators who voted in favor of moving forward with a resolution that would direct President Donald Trump to pull the U.S. military out of the conflict with Iran. Cassidy’s vote in favor of moving forward with the Iran War Powers Resolution comes days after he lost his reelection bid to Trump-endorsed Rep. Julia Letlow (R-LA), and Louisiana Treasurer John Fleming. The Senate voted 50-47 to move the War Powers Resolution out from the Senate’s Foreign Relation Committee, with Sens. Lisa Murkowski (R-AK), Susan Collins (R-ME), Rand Paul (R-KY), and Cassidy voting with the Democrats, CBS News reported.

The Atlantic magazine recently announced the People’s Choice for the 2028 Republican presidential nomination. “Trump Voters Like Marco Rubio More and More (And J.D. Vance Less and Less)” the headline proclaimed, a ruling that deserves respect considering that this is the magazine that has spent the past decade ferociously denouncing Trump as a “racist,” “fascist kleptocrat,” “warped,” “corrupted,” an “authoritarian,” a “demagogue,” a “xenophobe” and a “liar.”

President Donald Trump on Wednesday demanded that Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough be fired, arguing that over the years, her rulings have been “brutal” to Republicans. The parliamentarian serves at the pleasure of the Senate Majority Leader, who can instruct the Senate Secretary to dismiss the official at any time. Trump expressed frustration in a post on Truth Social that Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-SD) has refused to take this step, raging that the “Dumocrats cheat, lie, and steal, especially when it comes to Votes in Elections, but stick together, whereas the Republicans allow the Elizabeth MacDonoughs of the World to stay in power, and brutalize us.”

I am willing to assume that there was a time when the NAACP did some good. (I do not make the same assumption about the SPLC.) But that time is long, long gone. For many years, the NAACP has been a force for ill, not for good. An excellent example is its just-launched boycott campaign: The NAACP is calling on Black athletes and fans to boycott the athletic programs of public universities in states that are taking steps that the nation’s oldest civil rights group says are restricting Black voting rights. There is no conceivable theory on which anyone is restricting black voting rights. Launched Tuesday, the “Out of Bounds” campaign urges prospective

Seattle’s lefty Mayor Katie Wilson admitted she was wrong to slam Starbucks and push for a boycott of the mega-coffee chain birthed in the Pacific City. Wilson, 43, issued a terse mea culpa to the New York Times this week as questions swirl about whether the liberal Northwest city can attract and retain businesses, including Starbucks, which recently chose to expand its footprint in Tennessee. The democratic socialist made waves last fall when she joined a barista union rally as mayor-elect and expressed her disgust with one of Seattle’s most recognizable businesses.

Three beachgoers were stabbed while hundreds of teens took over packed New England beaches in separate incidents on Tuesday, sparking fights and forcing evacuations of the summer hotspot. The suspected stabbing broke out just after 3 p.m. Tuesday at Narragansett Town Beach, a popular summer vacation retreat in southern Rhode Island, as temperatures reached into the 90s. Responding officers located three victims suffering from minor stab wounds, Narragansett Police Chief Kyle Rekas said in a statement posted to Facebook.

Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner (D.) suggested that legendary "American Sniper" Chris Kyle shot innocent civilians in Iraq in order to inflate his kill numbers. Platner also bristled at the idea of the former Navy SEAL and his platoon being dubbed "heroes." Platner, running for Senate against Sen. Susan Collins (R.), lashed out at Kyle and members of the SEAL's "Task Unit Bruiser" in a May 2024 podcast interview on Green Beret Chronicle Show in which Platner, a former Marine, discussed his deployment in 2006 to Ramadi, a hotbed of insurgent activity during the Iraq war.

Caroline Wren: Over the last 72 hours, like these, the only people that were lobbying for a Cornyn endorsement were other GOP senators. And in the last 72 hours, the GOP senators had come out against President Trump on several things. They told him: ** We’re not passing the Save America Act ** We’re not going to nuke the filibuster ** We’re not going to fund (security) for your ballroom ** The weaponization fund’s a bad idea ** W’re not going to fire the parliamentarian.

Former 16-term Democratic Massachusetts Rep. Barney Frank died of congestive heart failure Tuesday at the age of 86. First elected to the House in 1980, Frank is known for being the co-author of the Dodd-Frank Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act (“Dodd-Frank”) as well as being the first member of Congress to voluntarily come out as gay. Just over two weeks before his passing, he appeared on CNN’s “State of the Union with Jake Tapper and Dana Bash” while receiving hospice care at his Maine home — where he warned that his lifelong party was lurching too far leftward.

Ask anyone in the South, and they can confirm to you that college football is more or less a religion there. In particular, the Southeastern Conference — better known by its acronym of SEC — has become one of the crowning jewels for Southern football fans. The conference is known for producing swathes of NFL-caliber players, dynasties like Alabama, and consistent top-tier programs like Georgia. While the proliferation of college athletic money has somewhat closed the gap between the SEC and its fellow power conferences, the conference is still viewed as the gold standard of college football (though some fans are quick to call the conference overrated,

Under the U.S. Constitution, anyone who is not a "natural-born citizen" is barred from becoming president or vice president. Now, a House Republican wants to expand that requirement to much of the federal government. Rep. Nancy Mace, R-S.C., plans to introduce a joint resolution Wednesday proposing a constitutional amendment requiring members of Congress, federal judges and other Senate-confirmed appointees to be natural-born citizens. The proposal would affect more than a dozen naturalized citizens currently serving in Congress, including several Republicans. Mace, who is running to be South Carolina’s next governor, suggested that the country’s nearly 25 million naturalized citizens, who made the deliberate choice to become Americans, may have divided loyalties.

House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries showed up at the crazy Center for American Progress to impart his questionable wisdom. He said we have to “break” MAGA extremists, MAGA extremists meaning conservatives. He calls everyone who wants to make America great again an extremist. Hakeem wants to stack the Court, so Democrats win every case in perpetuity. That’s not extreme? He also plans to seize control of the courts, and corrupt the vote with the John Lewis Voting Act. Recently, he aligned himself with the SPLC. Just last month, he traveled to Denmark to trash the president and the country. Now, Hakeem knows extremism since he is extreme, as is his
