The verdict is in: Against massive public dissatisfaction with the direction of a country led entirely by Democrats, former President Donald Trump’s Republican Party still scared enough voters that it embarrassingly underperformed in this year’s elections. The less Trump-like the Republican candidates, the better they did.

Republicans Can Do Better Than Trump in 2024
Viewing Trump as either the savior of the party or country and deserving of another chance at the presidency isn’t supported by all manner of evidence. The Republican Party should not select an unserious man who embraces conspiracies and throw him into the ring for a third round.
Attack on Paul Pelosi Hints at Significant Capitol Police Failure
The Capitol Police must answer two main questions. First, what protective systems were employed at the time of the attack — and if they were inactive, why? Were they malfunctioning and, if so, why weren’t those malfunctions detected earlier? Second, why were no Capitol Police officers from the agency’s San Francisco field office deployed for protective security patrols?
Associated Press Declares That the World Series Isn’t Black Enough
Our race-obsessed media outlets are once again complaining about the skin color of athletes while pretending that they are fighting against racism. The latest racism from establishment media revolves around the World Series, with the Associated Press whining that there will be no U.S.-born black athletes on the rosters of the Houston Astros or the Philadelphia Phillies.
Some in Establishment Media Continue to Defend Fetterman After Debate Flop
Whether more journalists come out of the woodwork over the next week to join MSNBC and others in protecting his campaign is anyone’s guess, but those who have already have shown exactly what we already knew: Establishment media outlets want the Democrats to win at all costs.
Don’t Bring a Stroke Victim to a Debate with a TV Star
Just as one probably shouldn’t bring a knife to a gunfight, Democrats probably shouldn’t have brought a 400-pound human vegetable incapable of processing the English language to a live political debate against a professional television star who just so happened to cut his teeth as a world-renowned cardiothoracic surgeon.
Falling Test Scores Illustrate the Disaster of Distance Learning
Once it was clear that Covid was not a major threat to children, every schoolhouse in America should have reopened immediately for in-person instruction. Unfortunately, special interests run many state educational bureaucracies, and of course, special interests positively own the Biden administration.
The Complete and Total Failure of the Jan. 6 Committee
Much of the blame for the Democratic Party’s freak-out over the regrettable occurrences that day belongs to the House committee investigating the riot, which has endlessly hyped and distorted the events leading up to Jan. 6 and the actual events of that day.
“Pandemic of the Unvaccinated” Turned Out to Be Just Another Dem Lie
The “get vaccinated to save lives” and “trust the science” mantras that dominated pandemic messaging for nearly two years turned out to be a farce. The people promoting the importance of trusting science showed exactly why we should all be skeptical of it. Biden, Democrats, and every leftist who promoted this false narrative and these baseless attacks owe the country, if not the world, an apology.
John Fetterman Should Not Be a Senator
With all due sympathy for a man recovering from a stroke, it must be said: Fetterman was a ludicrous candidate even before his stroke, and now he shouldn’t even be in the race. Only 100 people, out of some 330 million, are given the privilege of being senators. It’s an office that performs a vital function and shouldn’t be a rehabilitation center.
California’s Green Bureaucracy Gets the Smackdown It Deserves
California is the only state in the country to suffer from regular rolling blackouts. Those blackouts are a choice — the choice you make when you vote for Newsom and other Democrats. Many Californians are making a different choice by moving away. Hopefully, they can all afford the gasoline they need to get out of California.
Kanye West Dares to Defy BLM
The Black Lives Matter organizations have gone full bore after Kanye West. His grievous offense? Daring to wear a “White Lives Matter” shirt. Why the fury? Because BLM fully understands West’s deep purchase in the culture, a realm where it has become a major player itself and where it will not accept challenges.
Herschel Walker Should Virtually Withdraw from Senate Race
He should announce that he will stay on the ballot because it is legally too late to replace him. He should say if he wins, he will indeed be sworn in to make things official. He should pledge, though, that within two days of being sworn in, he will resign — under one huge condition. Whomever the governor is of either party, they must agree to appoint a person chosen by the Georgia Republican Executive Committee to replace him until a new election can be held.
Trump’s No Hope CNN Lawsuit Has Nothing to Do with the Law
Instead, it helps Trump mobilize his supporters as he looks toward a 2024 presidential run. For a few million dollars in legal fees, Trump has gained media attention while bolstering his political narrative of fighting media bias and elites.
Biased Media Hit Florida Before Ian
The insinuation that somehow Florida was not well prepared for Ian is deeply unfair and untrue. This applies both to the evacuation preparations before the storm and to the equally important preparations to save lives afterward and restore vital services to storm-damaged areas.
Biden’s F-Word Problem
Not that the word “fascist” still means anything — Biden has called everyone who disagrees with him a “semi-fascist” — but Italy’s new leader Giorgia Meloni is not a fascist in any meaningful sense of the word. Her party’s economic and social programs do not resemble those of Italy’s long-gone and unlamented Fascist regime.
Biden’s Mental Sharpness Is Increasingly Doubtful
How do you know President Joe Biden is genuinely losing the mental faculties required to govern? One way is to look at his White House staff scrambling to cover up every clue. .
Stop Subsidizing the Transgender-Industrial Complex
A major driver of our nation’s growing transgender lunacy is the fact that, when government subsidies are attached to it, “gender affirming care” is extremely profitable to the healthcare behemoths that have themselves become addicted to government dollars.
Fake Charities Spend Millions to Help Dems Win Elections
By abusing their knowledge of racial demographic voting trends and enormous microtargeted voter databases, certain groups can ensure they only register people likely to vote for Democrats and function as tax-exempt Democratic PACs.
The People Want DeSantis to Run
Millions of people, are ready for Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis to run in 2024 and become the next great U.S. president. But the Federal Election Commission. Washington’s notoriously partisan campaign finance watchdog, is attempting to stop those who support DeSantis from mobilizing to draft him to run for president
Dems Are Not a Sane Alternative to the GOP
Disgust with Trump is never automatic acceptance of leftist ideals. As long as principles remain a priority in the mind of the actual conservative voter, Democrats will never gain their support.
GOP Choice for 2024 Should Be Abundantly Clear
Trump accomplished some great things during his four years as president, exceeding all expectations. He also left the party battered and bruised because of his ego. He doesn’t want to help Republicans win, and Democrats want him to lead the Republican Party. The opposite is true for DeSantis. The path forward now is clear — the future of the Republican Party is brighter than its past.
Biden Administration Thinks You Are Stupid
Voters aren’t stupid, but the Biden administration has to pretend they are because it has no other pitch to make. Biden’s presidency has been a train wreck, and the best spin it can offer is to pretend that the issues voters care about don’t exist at all.
Ken Starr Did His Duty with Good Intentions
Former federal judge and independent counsel Kenneth Starr, who died today, was an eminently decent man and dedicated public servant who did not come close to deserving the calumny he received from most of the establishment media. He did his duty thoroughly and, importantly, fairly and without malice.
