Principles for a Centrist Realignment:
The Grand Alliance
Posted By: FlyRight, 6/17/2026 11:38:03 PM
With midterm elections just around the corner, both major political parties are themselves coping with divided constituencies. The Democratic Socialists vie for dominance against more moderate Democrats. MAGA Republicans confront disaffected libertarians and neocons. And outside all these polarized factions are millions of voters that don’t find any politician or political agenda credible enough to earn their allegiance. But there is a common thread shared by most disillusioned voters. They believe that America’s ruling class has abandoned its fellow citizens.

The White House released the details of Trump's agreement with Iran on Wednesday.
A senior U.S. official briefed reporters on a 14-point memorandum of understanding expected to be signed Friday in Switzerland. Vice President JD Vance will attend. Trump had signaled the release was coming earlier this week. The agreement begins with a full stop to the fighting on all fronts, including Lebanon. This is not the final deal. It's a framework. Negotiators have 60 days to get the permanent agreement done. The agreement also seeks to restore commercial traffic through the Persian Gulf and Strait of Hormuz.

Pennsylvania Democrats rushed anti-school choice legislation Tuesday, bypassing regular order and sneaking up on Republicans. They aim to strip 30,000 children of educational scholarships, pocket the children’s scholarship money, and cut public charter school funding by $500 million.
Democrat Gov. Josh Shapiro was elected in part because of his promise to return educational choice to parents and families. Between the most recent budget proposal and an offensive “assault” on school choice, the governor continues to backtrack on campaign promises.

RedState reported earlier on the disgraceful warning Major League Baseball issued in the aftermath of three San Francisco Giants baseball players (pitcher Landen Roupp, along with relievers J.T. Brubaker and Ryan Walker) refusing to bend the knee to "Pride Night" by writing Bible verses on their rainbow-themed hats during their Friday game against the Chicago Cubs.As my colleague Rusty Weiss noted, these were "Bible verses, mind you, that explain the true symbolism of the rainbow—God's covenant with Noah, his descendants, and every living creature after the great flood." The verses were Genesis 9:12-16:

Reports are surfacing that White House aides are suddenly alarmed over the likelihood that top secret conversations on national security were taped and leaked to the New York Times.
Axios quotes an administration source as saying that, “We’re afraid some of our most sensitive conversations were being recorded, and we have no idea which ones.”
The outlet also writes that, “We hear President Trump is furious about the blow-by-blow accounts.”
The president has every right to be furious, but he shouldn’t stop there.
Situation Room meetings are classified, and the mere possibility that details of conversations,

former Oklahoma detention deputy is facing a potential life sentence and $250,000 fine for disregarding a pretrial detainee's medical needs, resulting in her ultimate death.
According to a Justice Department press release Monday, a federal jury convicted Paula Kelley on June 12 of violating Title 18, Section 242, which criminalizes anyone acting under color of law who willfully deprives someone of a right protected by the Constitution or U.S. laws. Kelley worked as a detention deputy at Garvin County Jail in Pauls Valley, Oklahoma.
Kelley's deliberate indifference to pretrial detainee Kayla Turley's serious medical needs resulted in Turley's ultimate death.
A Richmond judge denied two motions against the Democrat Party of Virginia and Gov. Abigail Spanberger Monday in a defamation case, and the plaintiff told the Daily Signal that he plans to appeal the decisions.
“I will be appealing these decisions,” Thomas Speciale, a retired Army intelligence officer and a former Republican U.S. Senate candidate, told the Daily Signal outside the courtroom of the Richmond City Circuit Court.
Speciale sued the Democratic Party of Virginia for allegedly defaming him. The party issued a press release on Nov. 3, 2022, claiming that Speciale “attacked the U.S. Capitol” on Jan. 6, 2021, and suggesting that he “bloodied and beat law enforcement officers.” Speciale,
House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (NY-08) does not do a great media job speaking for the Democrats, and he proved that again on Monday during an appearance on Good Day New York.Jeffries tried to buffalo the anchors and the audience by criticizing President Donald Trump over "skyrocketing gas prices."This claim from Jeffries has two problems. First, oil prices have already been coming down because of the peace negotiations with Iran. Second, now that a deal is being signed, the prices are likely to drop even more, as shipping returns to normal.
Gov. Greg Abbott announced support Friday for closing Texas Republican primaries to non-Republicans, telling delegates at the 2026 Texas Republican Party Convention that “We are going to make it clear that in the future, only Republicans will vote in Republican primaries.”
The statement, delivered during the convention underway at the George R. Brown Convention Center, comes alongside long-standing Texas GOP platform goals of ending the state’s open primary system. Abbott’s endorsement comes as the party seeks greater control over its nominating process following the March 3, 2026, primaries and recent runoffs.
The Diversity Lottery means you can receive immigrants from almost any of these countries on the watch list for human trafficking for the sole reason that “diversity is our greatest strength.” Lucky you!
The Immigration Act of 1965 abolished the National Origins quotas of the 1924 Act, which had favored European immigrants. As a result, America has had a flood of non-European immigrants . . . and Europeans were, in effect, discriminated against for Visas.
In 1990, the late Teddy Kennedy instituted the “Diversity Visa Lottery” with the specific intention of allowing more Irish immigrants to the U.S.
Since then,
Cam already talked about how Gun Owners of America is backing Byron Donalds for governor down in Florida, and the reaction of some people to the news. It seems that this was a bit of a controversial decision by GOA, and a lot of people had big feelings about it. Some had gripes that I understood perfectly, while others...let's just say they didn't. But, GOA didn't just pick Donalds out of a hat. There's a reason why they backed that particular horse, and we need to talk about why that is.
Massie Exploits the USS Liberty

The event has long been recognized as a horrific example of mistaken identity and friendly fire, one that still plagues modern warfare despite incredible technological innovations. In an article I wrote a year ago, I exposed the truth about this incident—friendly-fire tragedy—and how anti-Semites and anti-Zionists (although telling the difference between the two is getting harder by the day) exploit this tragic event to demonize Israel.
Massie, who has turned his Congressional tenure into a relentless hatefest against all things Jewish and Israeli, insisted on propping up the conspiracy theory, because, well, why exactly?

A Trump-backed pastor has dropped out of Oklahoma’s Republican primary after the Daily Mail exposed his intimate relationship with a campaign aide. Jackson Lahmeyer, 34, said in a statement: ‘After prayerful consideration with my wife, Kendra, and my team over the last twenty four hours, I’ve made the difficult decision to suspend my campaign for Congress. ‘I do not want to be a distraction to my family, my church, and
Vice President JD Vance and other Republicans have criticized Major League Baseball (MLB) for warning players against wearing Bible verses during Pride Night.As Breitbart News reported, the MLB issued a warning to three San Francisco Giants pitchers after they displayed Bible verses on their hats during Pride Night. The incident occurred last Friday when Giants right-hander Landen Roupp displayed “Gen 9:12-16” on his Pride Night hat, which was followed by relievers JT Brubaker and Ryan Walker also featuring Bible verses on their official Pride Night hats.
Watching Greg Gutfeld and Jesse Watters take turns dismantling Jessica Tarlov's talking points on The Five is one of my not-so-guilty pleasures. But Tuesday delivered something even better: Vice President JD Vance stepped into the ring himself, and within seconds, he exposed a glaring blind spot in how the left thinks about loving your own country.
Tarlov tried to explain away a brutal new NBC News poll on American patriotism by chalking it up to simple political math. "Some of it is obviously partisan," she said, arguing that pride in the country naturally dips "when your party's out of power."
"I don't think that's right," Vance said.
Luigi Mangione will assert a psychiatric defence in his state murder trial over the fatal shooting of UnitedHealthcare chief executive Brian Thompson, a judge confirmed at a hearing on Wednesday, as the case that captivated the world moves closer to its September trial date.
Mangione, 28, faces state murder charges in New York in connection with the killing of Thompson, 50, who was shot dead on the streets of New York City in December 2024. The killing sparked a days-long international manhunt that ended with Mangione’s arrest at a McDonald’s in Altoona, Pennsylvania.
Trump’s Iran Deal: Americans Wanted

President Trump’s deal with Iran has received a lot of flak from both sides of the spectrum for its supposed shortcomings. Is it a failure before it’s even finalized? No, but that won’t stop the angry backbiting over an agreement that looks like it could significantly weaken Iran’s ability to cause trouble in the Middle East.
Let’s be clear: If Trump’s deal leads to a non-nuclear Iran, a freer flow of oil to the global economy, and a more stable Mideast, that will be a net gain for everyone concerned.
For the record, no, we’re not entirely satisfied, either. We didn’t want Trump to give an inch to the mullahs.
I have to hand it to Vice President JD Vance.
He ventured into the lion's den, going for an interview on the virulently anti-Trump, liberal enclave of "The View" on Tuesday. You knew it was likely to have some fiery moments.Perhaps surprisingly, Vance was met by a lot of cheers. He joked about how the panel was made up of "MAGA Republicans." Then Vance proceeded to dismantle a variety of the hoaxes/false beliefs that liberals have about President Donald Trump and his administration, starting with the "affordability hoax." Joy Behar said Trump was pouring money into things like the ballroom, the Reflecting Pool, and the UFC Freedom 250 event.
The U.S. Supreme Court has declined to help a 98-year-old judge facing seemingly unlawful efforts to suspend her from the federal bench.
The revelation was disclosed in the high court’s Monday order list, in which the justices rejected a request by Federal Circuit Judge Pauline Newman to take up and hear arguments in her case (Newman v. Moore). There were no noted dissents, and no explanation was given for the decision. As The Federalist recently reported, Newman was first suspended from the bench in 2023 by Federal Circuit Chief Judge Kimberly Moore and the court’s Judicial Council over alleged concerns about her mental and physical health.
The FBI released an affidavit Tuesday regarding a foiled alleged terror plot on Sunday’s Ultimate Fighting Championship 250 event at the White House, which perpetrators were allegedly planning to attack with explosive-laden drones and snipers.
At least five people have been arrested, and agents are working to identify as many as 18 others who appear to be involved in the planning on encrypted chats communicating with the alleged plotters, officials said.
The affidavit identified three of the five apprehended suspects, including 19-year-old Tycen Proper, who was arrested in Ohio and charged with attempted murder and several firearms violations after he allegedly admitted to helping plan the attack.
Renewable energy may be “green,” but it’s not bulletproof, and now America’s wind warriors are in open legal combat with the Pentagon.
Renewable energy trade groups have filed a federal lawsuit against the Pentagon, arguing that the Department of War has effectively frozen national security reviews for new onshore wind farms on private land.
Renewable energy groups are suing the U.S. military because they say national security reviews for new wind farms on private land have been effectively frozen for months. The groups say this logjam jeopardizes $47 billion in investments and thousands of jobs in 21 states.
President Donald Trump has frequently talked about his hatred of wind power and
Washington DC is poised to elect a democratic socialist as its next mayor, on a direct collision course with Donald Trump, who has threatened to federalise the capital if voters choose a candidate he disapproves of.
With more than 60 per cent of votes counted in Tuesday’s Democratic primary, Janeese Lewis George was holding just above 50 per cent, with her main rival, former city council member Kenyan McDuffie, on 36 per cent.
