[ad_1] I would be fascinated to learn what rationale Twitter uses to decide which messages are acceptable and which are not.

[ad_1] A leftover from last night’s rally in Pennsylvania. We don’t have to speculate what he meant here when he implicitly excluded Omar from “our country.” He was clear about that last year.

[ad_1] A month ago, California couldn’t generate enough energy to keep homes powered on a consistent basis, as the state’s mandates for “green energy” resources left their grid short. Today, Gov.

[ad_1] About an hour before Trump said this on TV, a friend who’s worked on analyzing elections for a long time emailed with the subject header “We’ve had a good run as a country.” I didn’t even need to read the message to know what he meant. I knew. I’m not sure much needs to

[ad_1] Today, on behalf of the Trump Administration, the Department of Justice sent draft legislation to Congress to reform Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act. The draft legislative text implements reforms that the Department of Justice deemed necessary in its June Recommendations and follows a yearlong review of the outdated statute. The legislation also executes President
[ad_1] Normally, we’d scoff at a “pounce” narrative, but in this case it’s justified — across the aisle and the political/media spectrum, too. Thanks to Senate Democrats’ attacks on Amy Coney Barrett in her 2017 appellate confirmation hearing, their hostility to practicing Catholics on the bench practically invites another fight over faith in the upcoming
[ad_1] The Trump folks look at Florida, North Carolina, Georgia, Arizona, and Pennsylvania as the key states — if they win those, Trump wins the presidency again. And that’s not a wild scenario.

[ad_1] As riots in cities around the country have made residents and business owners increasingly uneasy, many of them have noticed how the police aren’t responding quite so quickly to 911 calls these days.

[ad_1] Kyle Rittenhouse’s attorneys released brand-new footage appearing to show a Black Lives Matter demonstrator fired shots from a gun before Rittenhouse did, saying it clinches Rittenhouse’s insistence of self-defense.

[ad_1] Did Kyle Rittenhouse commit murder in Kenosha — or did he act in self-defense? “This is one of those rare cases,” Tucker Carlson told his audience last night, “where we might be able to reach firm conclusions about that before the trial.” Maybe, although it’s always risky when doing so exclusively on the evidence conveniently
