FIRST ON THE DAILY SIGNAL—President Donald Trump has fired the director of the National Portrait Gallery because of her history of pushing woke ideology, donating to Democrats, and denigrating Republicans, a White House official told The Daily Signal. Kim Sajet has donated $ 3,982.40 to Democrats, including Joe Biden’s presidential campaign, Hillary Clinton’s 2016 presidential campaign, the DCCC, and EMILY’s List, an organization that helps pro-abortion Democratic candidates win elections. Sajet has also donated to Democrats, including Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand of New York, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and former Rep. Colin…

Until this past weekend, there was only one place you had a chance to see all of Virginia’s living governors come together in the same place, and that was at the inauguration of the next one. But on May 17, in commemoration of the anniversary of the Supreme Court’s 1954 Brown v. Board of Education ruling desegregating schools and commemorating Virginia’s role in that case, there they all were, Democrats and Republicans sitting together, sharing the commonality that comes from being part of a group of only 74 Virginians that…

Once upon a time, that was true, and in some respects it still is. Mississippi has the lowest or nearly the lowest income levels of any state.

President Richard Nixon, a native Californian, promoted an idea in 1972 to turn an iconic stretch of California’s coastline into a national park. It would include the headlands around the Golden Gate and two nearby islands. One was Angel Island, and the other was Alcatraz—where a federal prison had been permanently closed nine years earlier. On Feb. 8, 1972, Nixon sent a message to Congress. “I propose legislation to establish a Golden Gate National Recreation Area in and around San Francisco Bay,” he said. “Altogether, the area would encompass some…
