E. Jean Carroll under DOJ investigation. Does any sane person believe her story?

E. Jean Carroll, the woman who accused President Donald Trump of sexual assault, allegedly lied under oath during the trial. She claimed she was not receiving outside money to fund her cases — but as it turns out, left-wing megadonor Reid Hoffman was footing the bill. This much has been known since 2023. What’s new […]

Democrats try to pass off weird progressives such as Talarico as normal

Democrats simply cannot or will not find a normal candidate to run in competitive or hostile Senate races. That leads to candidates such as Texas Democratic Senate nominee James Talarico, who have to run away from their bizarre past comments to avoid alienating voters.
