I’m speaking on the seventy-first day of the Iran war, but of course, it hasn’t been seventy-one days. The last real date of bombing, intense bombing—not a tit-for-tat here and there, but the actual day of kinetic activity—was April 8, the actual last day. Editor’s note: This is a lightly edited transcript of today’s video from Daily Signal […]

The woman who once couldn’t tell you how many chambers are in the House of Representatives has done it again. Fresh off another round of cable hits and podcast appearances, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez dropped the kind of historical howler that makes every actual history teacher in America reach for the whiskey. On May 9 she […]

The same Democrats who rigged every rule to keep power in Sacramento are watching their own system turn on them like a rabid coyote. California’s so-called jungle primary was supposed to be a clever way to keep Republicans irrelevant forever.

Steve Descano didn’t get elected Fairfax County Commonwealth’s Attorney to lock up bad guys and keep the streets safe.

Sami Winc: So, Victor, let’s turn to California. And recently, the—we know as well a lot of our viewers know—California has a jungle primary, where the primary is all the parties are in.

The left spent years pretending racial gerrymandering was some sacred civil-rights sacrament while they drew maps to lock in power. Now the Supreme Court has called their bluff and blown the whole racket wide open. On April 29 the justices ruled six to three that Louisiana’s congressional map was an unconstitutional racial gerrymander because it […]
