Washington, D.C. – Following the news that a super PAC has been launched to back the eventual No Labels candidates – which new reporting has revealed may be a so-called all-Republican “unity ticket” – MoveOn Political Action Executive Director Rahna Epting released the following statement: “No one should be surprised that Republican strategists are creating another revenue stream to line their pockets and funnel millions of dollars towards No Labels’ dangerous operation that will only lead to Donald Trump back in the White House. Voters deserve to know who is behind this effort and where every…

As the number of people who have chosen to detransition out of a transgender identity continues to grow, a parallel increase in lawsuits filed by detransitioners against gender clinics and medical professionals is also occurring. In November of last year, 18-year-old Chloe Cole became the first detransitioner to file a medical malpractice suit against Kaiser Permanente as well as the doctors who advised her to undergo gender transition procedures and performed them over a five-year period beginning when she was 13. The lawsuit noted that as a result of undergoing “puberty blockers, off-label cross-sex hormone…

The Only Sin That Republicans Can’t Forgive

October 4, 2023 Republicans, Only, Can't, Forgive0 comment

The fall of House Speaker Kevin McCarthy today demonstrated again that the one sin that cannot be forgiven in the modern Republican Party is being seen as failing to fight the Democratic agenda by any means necessary. Of all the accusations that could be leveled against McCarthy, the notion that he was insufficiently committed to battling Democrats would not seem high on the list. As the GOP minority leader in the previous Congress, McCarthy voted to reject the 2020 election results in two key states and tried to impede the…

Trump Isn’t Only One Facing Double Standards of Justice

It’s not just Donald Trump who is experiencing two standards of justice in America these days. In a monologue last week, Tucker Carlson highlighted other examples of a judicial double standard. He referred to the case of Douglass Mackey, who posted a satirical meme about voting by text message and is now facing up to 10 years in prison after being convicted by a New York state jury. Then he noted Kristina Wong, who similarly posted a meme about texting your vote, and yet has faced no legal consequences. …

Leftist Anti-Trump ‘Doonesbury’ Cartoonist Finally Takes on a Biden—But Only Very Gently

Back in early August, fully 18 months into the presidency of Democrat Joe Biden, we noted with curiosity how the liberal newspaper editorial cartoon “Doonesbury” still had not even mentioned Biden, much less ridiculed or lampooned anything about his administration. That was despite the president’s numerous lies and innumerable speaking gaffes, and in spite of his many policy failures—especially the abrupt military pullout from Afghanistan that gifted the Taliban with $ 80 billion in armaments, the economic policies fueling skyrocketing inflation and leaving Americans poorer, or his open-borders policies allowing…

Speaker in Name Only

January 9, 2023 Only, Speaker, Name0 comment

Having at long last put down a rebellion from within his party, Kevin McCarthy is now House speaker. He finally has the gavel he’s long coveted, but the job he secured after 14 consecutive drubbings is not the one he envisioned. Last night, he suffered one more indignity to get it, perhaps the most stunning in a week’s worth of humiliations. McCarthy had to literally beg his most hated Republican foe, Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida, for the deciding vote, and a fight nearly broke out on the House floor.…
