Turning Point USA was once merely a somewhat controversial right-wing student organization, but it has quickly turned into one of the most destructive forces in Republican politics. Last weekend, Turning Point hosted its “People’s Convention” in Detroit with headliners including Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL), Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH), and former President Donald Trump.

Another Republican said, “It’s a […]
President Joe Biden‘s campaign on Monday released a new television advertisement in several battleground states targeting former President Donald Trump’s status as a convicted felon.

When Chicago Sky power forward Angel Reese karate-chopped Indiana Fever phenom Caitlin Clark in the neck for a hard foul Sunday, it marked the second time this month that Clark was the subject of a questionable foul by a Sky player.

A recent report by the Coalition for a Safer […]
Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) is not alone in the polling and approval woes. Newsom’s polling numbers have dropped from an all-time high of 64% three years ago.
