Before the results of the Virginia governor's race were in, many on the Left were scrambling to find an explanation for the surprising lead the Republican candidate, Glenn Youngkin, was enjoying. Of course, to the rest of us, this was no surprise; the myriad concerns Americans are facing provided adequate explanation for voters' impatience with the Democrats, from the COVID-19 pandemic to inflation to supply chain shortages to political polarization. And yet, rather than look to these explanations, the mainstream media, seemingly in unison, settled on a single culprit: white supremacy.

We are not a racist country and I'm so tired of people saying we are. No other country has done more for others in the world than we have.

I couldn't care less if it's raycist or not. CRT is garbage because it is built 100% on lies and revisionist garbage. It should be opposed on that basis alone.

The word racist used to be the trigger to defeat Conservatives and Republicans. It is not working any more. Virginians know McAulliff and were voting against him. He was running as a WOKE politician and Virginians have had enough. The word racism is running out of steam. Blacks are coming ahead and many are 1%'s. Sad that so many black athletes who are mulitmillionaires are playing the race card. They are the ones hurting the black community. They have bought into the Communist Party lines. That's what Virginians were voting against. Glenn Youngkin seems to have the answers and I hope he continues to rise to the occasion and realizes what and who put him in office. Let's go Brandon!!!!

CRT does the most harm to black children,because it gives them a reason not to achieve, in intellectual pursuits. It also gives them a valid reason to bully white children, which makes an existing practice even worse. (there's an old expression in the hood - any black child can win in a fistfight with a white child, even if it takes several black children to do it.)

Vermont GOP chair says rally in hometown

The newly elected chair of the Vermont Republican Party, Paul Dame, said he will hold a rally in his hometown of Brandon, Vermont, to put a positive spin on the anti-Biden chant "Let’s Go Brandon!" "It taps into the fact that people feel like they're not being heard, not being represented, that they're being glossed over and lost, especially in political considerations. And so I really wanted to do this rally, partly because to show the rest of the world the Vermont way to take something that's toxic, negative and natural and recycle it, like we do in Vermont," Dame said in a YouTube video about the rally on Saturday.

As in the 1880s, we live in an era of polarized partisan parity, in which changes of opinion among independent voters can sweep election results. One year ago, Joe Biden was elected president with 51% of the popular vote. Now, with his job approval below 43%, his party is in trouble. That’s obvious from Republican Glenn Youngkin’s 51-49 victory to become governor in Virginia, which Joe Biden won by 10 points in 2020, and Democrat Phil Murphy’s reelection by only 51-49 in New Jersey, which had gone Biden +16. It’s obvious also that, barring a sudden shift in public opinion, Democrats will surely lose their narrow House majority and

The Wisconsin judge overseeing the trial of Kyle Rittenhouse tore into a prosecutor Wednesday during a testy exchange over his cross-examination of the teenager and questions over his silence after his arrest and his protection of private property. Judge Bruce Schroeder scolded Kenosha County Assistant District Attorney Thomas Binger after he asked Rittenhouse whether he knew the use of deadly force can not be used to protect property. Schroeder accused Binger of trying to improperly introduce testimony that he said earlier he wasn't inclined to include. "I was astonished when you began your examination by commenting on the defendant’s post-arrest silence. That's basic law.

Trump unloads on 13 Republicans who backed

Former President Donald Trump in remarks at the National Republican Congressional Committee dinner Monday openly blasted the 13 congressional Republicans who supported President Biden’s infrastructure bill in a vote Friday. Fox News Digital has confirmed from sources at the dinner that the former president criticized the 13 Republican defectors in a lengthy speech Monday night in a room where at least one of them, Rep. Nicole Malliotakis, was present. The House of Representatives voted 228-206 on Friday to pass the $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill, which could not have passed without the support of the 13 Republicans who pushed it through despite opposition from six progressive Democratic members of the House.

If there’s anything that liberal elites, especially Black liberal elites, hate more than white rednecks, it’s Black conservatives. Elites see them as sellouts, or “Uncle Toms.” MSNBC host Joy Reid once referred to Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas as “Uncle Clarence.” And since they’re not related, it was simply a cheap shot at a man whose conservative worldview makes him, in Reid’s view, a traitor to his race. In 1991, then-Rep. Major Owens (D-N.Y.), a Black liberal, testified against Thomas’s confirmation, comparing him to Vidkun Quisling, a Norwegian military officer who collaborated with the Nazis.

The latest indictment by Special Counsel John Durham has created a stir in Washington as the investigation into the Russian collusion scandal exposed new connections to the Clinton campaign. The indictment of Igor Danchenko exposes additional close advisers to Hillary Clinton who allegedly pushed discredited and salacious allegations in the Steele dossier. However, one of the most interesting new elements was the role of a liberal think tank, the Brookings Institution, in the alleged effort to create a false scandal of collusion. Indeed, Brookings appears so often in accounts related to the Russian collusion scandal that it could be Washington’s alternative to the Kevin Bacon parlor game.

After months of frustrating attempts to pass the bipartisan infrastructure bill, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., finally got it across the finish line with the support of 13 Republican House members. The bill, which received 19 GOP votes in the Senate, was decoupled from the broader social spending package known as Build Back Better. Many conservatives are outraged at the defectors who crossed the aisle, but maybe they shouldn’t be. There were basically three possible outcomes for the bills.

"To my good friend ... A Great Democrat." Those words written to a Russian figure in Moscow, inside a copy of a Hillary Clinton autobiography, may be the defining line of special counsel John Durham’s investigation. The message reportedly was written by Charles Dolan, a close Clinton adviser and campaign regular whom news reports identify as the mysterious “PR-Executive 1” in the latest Durham indictment, this time of Igor Danchenko. Danchenko, 43, was a key figure in the compilation of the infamous Steele dossier that led to the now discredited investigation of alleged collusion between the Trump campaign and the Russian government during the 2016 presidential race.

House lawmakers voted 221-213 to pass the procedural "rule" for President Biden’s expansive $1.75 trillion social spending bill late Friday night, setting up a vote on the massive measure that could result in House passage of some $3 trillion in new spending during November alone. Earlier in the evening, House lawmakers voted to pass President Biden’s $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package. The vote to adopt the rule for the social spending bill, which will run under "reconciliation" rules that require a simple majority to pass the Senate, clears the way for Democratic leaders to bring the legislation to the House floor in the near future.

As a former congressional staffer who has seen what happens to new movements when they come to Washington with little more than energy and talking points, I think it’s important for national conservatives to think carefully and concretely about policy. But more important than policy, especially in this moment, is understanding where policy comes from. Conservatism is not a set of legislative goals like lowering taxes, school choice, or even border security. It’s a set of principles or goods – what Russell Kirk called “the permanent things,” like family, opportunity, order, faith, and freedom.

Special counsel John Durham’s indictment of Igor Danchenko, the principal source for the bogus Steele dossier used by the FBI as a basis for the Trump-Russia investigation, further illustrates that Durham has his sights set on the Clinton campaign. Danchenko has been charged with five counts of lying to the FBI in interviews during 2017, as the bureau struggled in futility to verify outlandish allegations that Donald Trump and his campaign were clandestine agents of the Kremlin. Those allegations were compiled in the so-called Steele dossier, which the FBI relied on in obtaining surveillance warrants from a secret federal court. The dossier was generated by the Clinton campaign.

President Joe Biden's climate envoy John Kerry said the United States won’t have coal plants by 2030. “By 2030 in the United States, we won’t have coal,” Kerry said Tuesday during an interview with Bloomberg at the United Nations's COP26 climate conference in Glasgow, Scotland. “We will not have coal plants.” The U.S., the world’s largest economy, generates nearly 25% of its electricity from coal despite the rapid retirements of coal plants in recent years that have struggled to compete with cheaper and cleaner natural gas and renewable energy. Kerry’s comment is among the most explicit to-date of a Biden

Congress is requiring in its $1.2 trillion infrastructure bill that automakers install monitoring systems in their cars to stop drivers from operating their vehicles while intoxicated. The bipartisan package, which is on its way to the president's desk after passing the House on Friday, allocates around $17 billion for the road safety programs. Monitoring systems to stop drunk drivers would roll out in all new vehicles as early as 2026, according to the new legislation. First, however, the Transportation Department would have to assess what the best form of technology is and give automakers ample time to comply. DOT Secretary Pete Buttigieg said Monday that the safety programs included

Former President Barack Obama called on world leaders to save the planet, but he couldn’t quite identify which country he was in. Mr. Obama’s speech Monday at the COP26 climate-change summit is being mocked for his reference to host Scotland as part of the “Emerald Isles,” which is a nickname for Ireland. “Since we’re in the Emerald Isles here let me quote the Bard, William Shakespeare,” Mr. Obama said. “‘What wound,’ he writes, ‘did ever heal but by degrees?’” Observers pointed out Mr. Obama actually committed two gaffes in the same breath. Shakespeare is considered the bard of England—yet another country. Scotland’s bard is poet Robert Burns.

Instead of offering middle-class Americans an explanation or an apology or a sliver of hope, she let out a hearty laugh. “Oh my…that is hilarious! As you know, oil is a global market. It is controlled by a cartel, that cartel is called OPEC, and they made a decision yesterday that they were not going to increase [production] beyond what they were already planning.”
