If Zohran Mamdani, rather than Abigail Spanberger, had won the governorship of Virginia, what would be different?   After Democrats lost Congress in 2022, an irritated Spanberger warned her then-colleagues that throwing around words such as “socialist” or “socialism” had been disastrous. “Because while people think it doesn’t matter,” she explained, many “good” Democrats running in competitive districts had […]

GAVIN NEWSOM: TROLLING DOESN’T STOP AT THE WATER’S EDGE. Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) took his campaign for the 2028 Democratic presidential nomination to Europe this week.

The radical Left once again crossed a major line on Sunday when anti-ICE protesters stormed Cities Church, a Southern Baptist Church in St. Paul, Minnesota. The protesters shouted anti-ICE rhetoric, obscenities, and anti-white racist remarks, calling congregants “white supremacists” and “privileged pigs.” “I don’t know what kind of person can do something this disordered and evil, but […]

Due to President Donald Trump’s willingness to upend the global status quo, financial commentators and elite media outlets confidently predict that the status of the United States dollar is under threat as the global reserve currency. They say that China’s yuan may replace the dollar in that privileged position. The same voices insist that international investors and […]

This follows a similar pattern of European diplomacy. For two decades, European leaders dismissed […]

A mob of three dozen activists overran a Southern Baptist church in St. Paul, Minnesota, last Sunday, shouting and otherwise disrupting congregants at their worship service and leaving young children frightened and crying.
