President Donald Trump said Tuesday independent New York mayoral candidate Andrew Cuomo has a chance of winning against socialist Zohran Mamdani if the Republican candidate, Curtis Sliwa, drops out. “If he dropped out, maybe Cuomo would have a little bit of a chance, but not much, because it looks like, it’s not a great lead, but it’s big enough that [Mamdani] should be able to win,” Trump said in response to a question from The Daily Signal. “So, I don’t know that I want to get involved. It’s really a…

Kind, hints, just, might, general, attorney, Jones0 comment

It is considered impolite to say, “We told you so.” However, after the debate Thursday between Virginia Attorney General Jason Miyares and his Democrat challenger, Jay Jones, the temptation to is daunting. Last week, in the wake of the “October Surprise” release of Jones’ text messages from 2022 where he fantasized about shooting then-Republican Speaker of the House of Delegates Todd Gilbert and about Gilbert’s two children dying in his wife’s arms, we published a look into the substantial punitive power that a Virginia attorney general has—power that Jones could…

After a judge ordered Virginia Democrat governor nominee Abigail Spanberger to give sworn answers in a defamation case against the Virginia Democratic Party, the Democrats hired a new lawyer in what the plaintiff says is a transparent effort to cocoon Spanberger from political peril ahead of the November election.

An Unexpected Line in the Sand

Sand, line, Unexpected0 comment

There has been talk for millennia about the wheat and the tares and the eventual separation of the two that Jesus foretold. I don’t know if that separation is happening in the ultimate sense right now, but something is happening and it is significantly unsettling. I admit, I thought any major, society-wide division would be on more nuanced grounds. The brashness of the current situation surprises me.

Democrats shut down the government because Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer is afraid he will lose his Senate seat to radical leftist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez in a party primary, Vice President JD Vance said at a Wednesday press briefing. “Why did this happen? Why did the Democrats shut down the government despite, as [White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt] said, voting on the exact same piece of legislation six months ago?” Vance asked rhetorically. “One answer I already gave is that they want to give health care benefits to illegal…
