There’s a dark mood creeping into American politics that has even the most die-hard gun control politicians worried. Democrats, typically (but not always) aligned with gun control, are facing the prospect of their political party turning their gaze to complete control. Enter the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). These candidates for political office aren’t your grandfather’s Democrats or even limousine liberals. They can’t even honestly call themselves socialists. They’re cosplaying communists who are shredding any pretense of respect or admiration for the U.S. Constitution. This is what George Orwell warned of in his novel, “1984.” They want complete and total control of the American government, including openly calling for abolishing of the U.S.

Sophie Cunningham is one of the most talented players in the WNBA. In a sport where attractive white women have long been marginalized and underrepresented, the Indiana Fever guard has repeatedly defied the odds to become the superstar she is today. Her success is a powerful testament to the value of diversity, equity, and inclusion. Cunningham made headlines this week by using her platform to stand up for female athletes, telling ESPN that transgender athletes should not be allowed to compete against biological girls. "I got a lot of negative feedback about me hating trans. And I'm like, 'I never once said that,'" Cunningham said.

When college kids showed more class than the WNBA I came across a very inspirational story yesterday. It was interesting because it provided a stark contrast to another story that’s been unfolding over the last few weeks. And the words “stark contrast” don’t adequately describe it. The inspirational story involved a game between two women’s college softball teams that took place in 2008. This was a crucial conference game that had playoff implications. A young woman named Sara Tucholsky, playing for Western Oregon, hit her first career home run. There were two runners on base and two outs. Ms. Tucholsky was a senior,

Not so long ago, I suggested that Hunter Biden is testing the waters for a presidential run. I was half joking, half not, as Mr. Biden has spent an inordinate amount of time out in public and on podcasts discussing politics and other matters, despite his claims that he is not running for office. I'm not the only one who has noticed. (X) Discussion about a potential Biden run is still confined to the fringes, but Biden himself has been out and about quite a bit, appearing on podcasts, promoting his paintings, talking about addiction (ah, a redemption story!), and opining about politics. A lot of opining about politics.

Fox Business correspondent Edward Lawrence recently reported on a big problem that the Biden administration left with the Strategic Petroleum Reserve (SPR). He explained to Fox News anchor Harris Faulkner how the SPR was now at a 43-year low, noting how the Biden administration had drained 180 million barrels before the 2022 midterm elections. It was clearly for political reasons to help in the elections, not for the reason you're supposed to do it - for emergencies in the market supply. Then Biden never fully refilled it, Lawrence explained. But it gets worse than that. (X) The current Undersecretary of Energy, Kyle Haustveit,

Texas Democrat candidate for U.S. Senate James Talarico is trapped between two oncoming trains that are about to crash into each other. On the one hand, Talarico has been having fundraising success, mostly because he's done a great job of pretending to moderate his positions on transgenderism and aberrant Christian views, while claiming he now wants to secure the border. However, this moderation is not sitting well with his far Left progressive base. Just last week, Talarico wrapped up a 750-mile bus tour from El Paso to the Rio Grande Valley, claiming he wanted to show up, listen and learn from the border communities.

Thanks to the U.S. Supreme Court decision in Little v. Hecox and West Virginia v. B.P.J., holding that states may reserve girls' and women's sports teams for biological females without violating Title IX or the Constitution, New Hampshire parents of transgender teenagers have dropped their lawsuits to allow their sons to play on the women's sports teams. One of the confused youth chose to stop playing on his soccer team because it was no longer fun. As our sister site Twitchy said, "That's as good as self-deporting." Exactly. Two transgender girls who were the first to challenge President Donald Trump’s executive order, “Keeping Men Out of Women’s Sports,”

We have all heard it many times. According to “journalists,” claims made by President Trump regarding election cheating are “unfounded,” “disproven,” and/or “debunked.” However, irrefutable evidence of large-scale 2020 election fraud exists. On Thursday night, the president outlined four specific areas of election concern. I’d like to address one of them: corrupt Michigan voter registrations in the 2020 election. Trump said, “Even when significant evidence of fraud has been detected, it has been buried and covered up.” The president is correct: Widespread evidence of Michigan fraud was detected before the 2020 election. After it was discovered and reviewed by the FBI, it was concealed by the Biden DOJ.

Well, Democrats in Maine really do have some special candidates to choose from. It took months but they finally got rid of Graham Platner after women came forward and accused him of abusive behavior and rape. Democrats finally decided that was a bad look and now they've had to rush to replace him with someone more agreeable. As of this weekend it seems clear that person is Troy Jackson. Troy Jackson has effectively secured the Democratic nomination in the crucial Maine Senate race, winning the support of a majority of the state delegates who will officially nominate a candidate next weekend.

How can one talk to the left when they deny reality? During the Iran-Iraq War, most people wanted both sides to lose. Israel, like the US and others, monitored the state of the war and, where needed, did its part to keep it going. At one point, the Israelis concluded that Iraq was getting the upper hand and needed to be checked. Through a kosher job placement company they ran in Paris, the Mossad was able to send two of its agents into Iraq to work with the Iraqi army motor pool. One fellow worked on trucks, causing the trailer to separate from the cab over a certain speed.

Last night’s Maine Democratic Senate debate to replace Graham Platner was a train wreck. Don't believe me? Feel free to check out this excellent rundown by my colleague, Nick Arama. Keep in mind that this not only looked like a train wreck, but it comes with the realization that this crop of misfit toys has only surfaced after the Democrats' previous muse, an accused rapist with a Nazi tattoo and an unhealthy fascination with portapotties, was forced out of the race. Among the new group was one candidate, Ashley Webb, who believes some of the best qualifications for serving in the Senate are writing songs and books.

The season of triangulation is upon us. First, presidential aspirant Rahm Emanuel tried to establish a compromise position on Israel to stave off the Democratic Party’s anti-Zionist bull rush. Now that the bull rush is on, Hakeem Jeffries—who will be speaker of the House if Democrats win enough seats in November—is trying a similar tactic. Yesterday, more than 100 House Democrats voted to end aid to Israel. The battle appears lost—unsurprising, since the battle was almost entirely one-sided. So now Jeffries is negotiating the terms of his surrender, and those terms are similar to the ones Emanuel tried to sell to the same party. Via Jewish Insider, Jeffries outlined some familiar principles.
