So, Victor, let’s start out local. California election. This thing—no, there’s no state in America, and in fact, I’ve read there’s no country, non-first-world or first-world country, that counts votes like California does. And we saw the other day there was a dump of votes that came in one tranche, 10,000 votes exactly, for the mayoral race, and not a single one of those 10,000 votes went to Spencer Pratt. They were divided amongst the two Democrats, Karen Bass and, I’m sorry, I can’t remember the lady who’s probably gonna prevail. [Nithya Raman] And then,

Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) conceded the South Carolina Republican gubernatorial primary race Tuesday less than two hours after polls closed, as returns showed the firebrand congresswoman trailing Trump-backed Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette by double digits.
“This isn’t the end of the fight, but it is the end of a chapter,” Mace said in her concession speech, during which she endorsed state Attorney General Alan Wilson in a runoff race against Evette. Serving South Carolina has been the greatest honor of my life,” Mace wrote on X, shortly after conceding. “Every vote I cast, every hearing I called, every fight I picked — it was always for you.”

President Donald Trump said Tuesday night that Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte will begin serving as acting director of national intelligence at the end of next week.
Trump announced Pulte's appointment last week, and the official will replace Tulsi Gabbard in the post. Gabbard revealed last month that she would resign June 30 to support her husband in his battle with a rare form of bone cancer.
The president said in a post on Truth Social that Pulte will now take over as acting director on June 19 and that the FHFA official is working with Gabbard in the transition.
It’s not often life showcases a problem in real time. It is now in the form of California and the Senate.
It’s become clear that California voting is designed to give Democrats the ability to cheat. Aside from Ranked Choice Voting scam and a universal mail-out of ballots, the state allows 30 days for votes to be counted, a fraud facilitator if ever there was one.
We’re seeing it play itself out very much in real time. Last week in Los Angeles in the battle for Mayor, at one point after an update of 24,000 votes, Spencer Pratt, a guy with 30% support, did not gain a single vote.
Last week's blockbuster jobs report, with more than 265,000 jobs added when including upward employment revisions, was very welcome news to almost all Americans. The exception would be the economists of the Left who throughout Donald Trump's now-five-and-a-half years in the White House keep getting the economy dead wrong. Just a few months ago a gaggle of economists on the Left, led by Nobel Prize winner Paul Krugman, started warning of "stagflation," a witch's brew of high inflation and high unemployment at the same time. He wrote that "any statement that things aren't as bad as they were in the 1970s should come with the caveat 'so far.'"
The list includes sex offenders, fraudsters, drug dealers, and defendants accused of concealing conduct that should've blocked naturalization in the first place. From Fox News: Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche framed citizenship as a privilege tied to honesty. Assistant Attorney General Brett Shumate, head of the Civil Division, said the department will pursue those who secured citizenship by lying.
The government's point is simple enough for even the denizens of Washington to understand, which means somebody there will probably work hard to misunderstand it.

FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—More nonprofits are urging the software company Benevity—which hundreds of companies use to allow employees to donate their time and money to charities—to stop systematically blacklisting conservative nonprofits.
Twelve organizations first sent a letter to Benevity in October following the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. The new letter, sent Monday and exclusively provided first to the Daily Signal, will feature three new signatories: Turning Point USA, PragerU, and Focus on the Family.

President Donald Trump has enjoyed considerable success in the courts during his second term. Federal judges and the Supreme Court have allowed key parts of his immigration agenda to proceed, upheld major personnel actions across the executive branch and endorsed an expansive view of presidential authority in several high-profile disputes.
But over the past two weeks, the administration suffered two notable legal setbacks: one involving the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts and another concerning a controversial compensation fund created through a settlement with the Internal Revenue Service.
(The Center Square) - An auction Friday of oil and gas leases in Alaska's Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, long at the center of political disputes over energy development, drew bids on five tracts covering about 71,000 acres out of 58 tracts spanning nearly 690,000 acres.
This auction was the first of four required lease sales under the One Big Beautiful Bill Act signed by President Donald Trump in July 2025. The bill mandates at least four auctions in the wildlife refuge by 2035.
The previous lease sale in the refuge was held in January 2025, when no bids were submitted and no revenue was generated. Oil industry representatives and Alaska state officials—
State auditors across the country were unable to verify billions of dollars in unemployment spending, Medicaid payments, and pension obligations in federally-funded programs, according to a new report by a government watchdog group.
The findings in the 2026 Financial Transparency Score report, released by the government watchdog Truth in Accounting, found that 13 states failed to earn clean audit opinions. The report comes as the Trump administration is cracking down on how states are spending federal dollars.
The organization used data from annual comprehensive financial reports, or ACFRs, produced by each state as a requirement for getting federal funding.

Israel struck several military targets in Iran on Sunday, hours after the Islamic Republic launched a barrage of missiles at the Jewish State.
The Israeli Defense Forces said its air force struck targets “belonging to the Iranian terror regime” in western and central Iran in a statement on X Sunday evening.
Iran state media separately reported that explosions were heard in Tehran, Tabriz and Isfahan after Israel fired “air-launched ballistic missiles,” citing the Iranian Revolutionary Guard Corps. The Israeli military hit Iranian surface-to-surface missile launch sites and non-energy infrastructure, Israel’s ambassador to the US, Yechiel Leiter, said.

Spencer Pratt’s once-comfortable lead in the Los Angeles mayoral primary has been slashed yet again — as a fresh batch of ballots delivered another major boost to progressive City Councilmember Nithya Raman in their race to the November runoff.
New results released Saturday show Pratt’s advantage over Raman shrinking to just 7,494 votes, down from more than 20,000 a day earlier. Roughly 78% of the ballots had been counted as of Saturday. Raman picked up 23,514 votes in the latest count, more than double Pratt’s gain of 10,336. Her share of the vote jumped from 24.9% to 26.2%, while Pratt slipped from 28.2% to 27.3%.

During an appearance on the Unity Over Division podcast, U.S. Senate candidate James Talarico (D) suggested it was “common sense” to mandate how guns are stored in homes and to ban private sales.
Talarico said, “I am a believer in the Second Amendment. I don’t pick and choose between the Bill of Rights, I believe in the Second Amendment just as much as I believe in the first.”
He went on to state his conviction that you need to get a permit to exercise the First Amendment right to assemble, then outlined gun controls that he described as “common sense.”

Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) is reportedly being prepared to run for president in 2028 by former President Joe Biden’s chief of staff, who also worked with New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani and California gubernatorial candidate Xavier Becerra on their respective campaigns.
Sources familiar with the matter told Politico’s Playbook this week that Khanna has caught the attention of Ron Klain, an attorney who was an appointee of former President Barack Obama as the White House Ebola Response Coordinator.
Klain, who was named Biden’s chief of staff after working as a senior adviser on his 2020 campaign, is now a chief legal officer at Airbnb

Karmelo Anthony sobbed Tuesday as he was swiftly convicted of murder in the fatal stabbing of fellow high-school jock Austin Metcalf at a track meet — and his furious supporters raged, “This whole thing’s been racist!”
The jury in Collin County deliberated about three hours before finding Anthony, 19, guilty of first-degree murder in the death of the 17-year-old and must now decide whether to put him away for life — prompting the killer’s weeping mom to later take the witness stand and beg for mercy for her son, according to a report by NBC DFW.

Iran had shot down a U.S. military helicopter while it was patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz, President Dondald Trump said on Tuesday, adding that the U.S. would “respond to this attack.” “The Iranians shot down one of our highly sophisticated Apache Helicopters while patrolling over the Strait of Hormuz,” he said in a Truth Social post, adding that he had been briefed by the military on the situation.
“There were two pilots involved, both are safe and uninjured,” he said. “Nevertheless, the United States must, of necessity, respond to this attack.”
Earlier Central Command said two crew members were rescued by an unmanned boat — a first for American forces —

A Sudanese migrant has been arrested after a barbaric video shows someone seemingly trying to behead another man in the middle of a UK street in scenes likened to “something out of a horror movie.”
The horrific footage shows the blood-soaked knifeman pinning down his victim in Northern Ireland late Monday in an attack a local politician also branded “barbaric” and “medieval.”[snip]Northern Ireland police initially said “a man in his 30s, believed to be Somalian, has been arrested on suspicion of attempted murder” before clarifying he was Sudanese, blaming the mix-up on the “fast time investigation[snip}.”Police are still unsure of of a motive for the barbaric attack,
Lawyers representing accused murderer Karmelo Anthony rested their case Monday, after their 19-year-old client declined to take the stand in his own defense. (snip) In one specific case, a witness called by the defense contradicted Anthony’s self-defense claim by saying, “I think Karmelo was in the wrong.”
Prosecutors then asked, “Did Karmelo Anthony provoke the confrontation?”
The defense witness responded, “Yes.” That’s just one example of a defense case that appears to have gone off the rails.
The madman accused of slaughtering Ukrainian refugee Iryna Zarutska on a train in North Carolina screamed at the judge on Tuesday as he was ruled not fit to stand trial for a second time.
Decarlos Brown Jr., 35, ranted about having “material in his body” and experiencing a “body emergency” during the brief hearing at the federal courthouse in Charlotte, Queen City News reported.
He also shouted about wanting to press charges against the FBI and asked the judge whether he had reviewed his evaluation and a letter from his mother, the outlet reported.
A Collin County jury has sentenced Karmelo Anthony to 35 years in prison after he was found guilty of murder in the fatal stabbing of 17-year-old Memorial High School student Austin Metcalf during a high school track meet in Frisco, Texas.
Anthony faced up to life in prison after being convicted of murder. He will be eligible for parole after serving half that time.
He broke down in tears and was shaking as the verdict was read Tuesday afternoon, and he was immediately taken into custody. The case immediately moved into the sentencing phase, with Anthony's mother as the sole witness

FIFA has been left with egg on its face, with almost 180,000 tickets still available just days before the World Cup kicks off. The World Cup begins on Thursday amid a backdrop of sociopolitical issues. While there have been security concerns with several incidents, including a shooting near England’s training camp, top referee Omar Artan was denied a visa despite having valid documentation. Ticket pricing has also been a major talking point, with exceptionally high prices leaving fans on the outside looking in unless they pay an extortionate amount. Seats for the final were reportedly listed at close to $33,000
President Trump on Monday called on Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) to “immediately fire” Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough to clear the way for Senate Republicans to pass the SAVE America Act, which would require proof of citizenship to register to vote and photo ID to cast a ballot.
“Senate Majority Leader John Thune should immediately fire the parliamentarian, who treats Republicans and everything they stand for horribly!” Trump posted on Truth Social, arguing that she’s an obstacle to enacting the SAVE America Act.
