My cynical self tells me there is more to the story than what we’re told here. Politics in the environs of NY tend to be hazardous to Republican candidates.

In New York, and Republican who dripped out of the race couple weeks ago, and "likely suicide"? Not unrealistic to suggest he discovered some dirt on powerful politicians, and the Clintons live in New York, have a history in people "committing suicide" after brushes with them.

This is a Cooks PVI R+3 district. It's very unusual that a Democrat holds that district. Name recognition from running before mixed with being an Afghanistan war vet... Kyle Van De Water was going to flip this district. Trivia: it's less than an hours drive to the Clinton's house.

Alaska Governor Mike Dunleavy responded to President Joe Biden’s push to mandate vaccines on Thursday by suggesting that the president should be removed from office under the 25th Amendment.“I’m announcing that the Department of Labor is developing an emergency rule to require all employers with 100 or more employees, that together employ over 80 million workers, to ensure their workforces are fully vaccinated or show a negative test at least once a week,” Biden declared during a press conference. “The bottom line: We’re going to protect vaccinated workers from unvaccinated co-workers.”

Whatever we didn’t know about the depth of corruption in our institutions before 2021, we are fast learning its true scope and, most importantly, its intent. The real pandemic of our lifetime is not the man-made virus or its variants—lurking conveniently everywhere we go and peaking at certain times of the year, say, before an election. No. It is rather the obscene hubris of a clique of pseudo-somethings who think their time to rule has finally come. Fancying themselves demigods, they are making moves to wield control over the lives of millions they deem unfit for freedom

Former actress and activist Rose McGowan dropped a nuke on Gov. Gavin Newsom’s wife in relation to the Harvey Weinstein saga. Apparently, the Newsoms might not be as friendly to women as they claim. During her interview with Dave Rubin, McGowan detailed her experience with Jennifer Siebel Newsom, alleging she attempted to get her to squash the story about disgraced film producer Harvey Weinstein, who is accused of sexually harassing and assaulting a number of women over the years. The actress said Jennifer called her to schedule a meeting ostensibly to discuss the Weinstein issue. She said:

Nothing comes up on The New York Times site either, although if you make it to the 15th paragraph of a story titled “The Vice President pushed back against the effort to recall Newsom in the Bay Area,” you will find a bland passing reference to Wednesday’s disgusting incident.According to our nation’s media leaders, it’s not a story that a white person wearing a gorilla mask attacked Larry Elder, a black man seeking to become the first non-white governor of California, by hurling an egg that touched his head.

The President will also sign an executive order directing the same standard be extended to employees of contractors who do business with the federal government.

Washington — President Joe Biden on Thursday is announcing sweeping new federal vaccine requirements affecting as many as 100 million Americans in an all-out effort to increase COVID-19 vaccinations and curb the surging delta variant that is killing thousands each week and jeopardizing the nation’s economic recovery. The expansive rules mandate that all employers with more than 100 workers require them to be vaccinated or test for the virus weekly, affecting about 80 million Americans. And the roughly 17 million workers at health facilities that receive federal Medicare or Medicaid also will have to be fully vaccinated.

The leftist operatives were identified making numerous drops in the middle of the night. They were filmed emptying their backpacks of ballots into the drop boxes in the middle of the night. Ballot harvesting is not legal in Georgia. This was criminal behavior caught on video!

A charity named after Winston Churchill has provoked fury by rebranding itself amid concerns over his views on race. The Winston Churchill Memorial Trust has removed pictures of the wartime leader from its website and is changing its name to the Churchill Fellowship. Volunteers at the trust said it was 'rewriting history'. One told The Sun: 'He was voted, by the people, as the Greatest Briton in a BBC poll in 2002 but is now erased from his own charity by the woke brigade. 'You can't imagine what he would have to say about it all but I'm sure he wouldn't think it was Britain's finest hour.'

Never before in human history has a global pandemic resulted in the dismemberment of first-world economies, highly divisive universal vaccine and mask mandates, education-stunting school shutdowns, and the isolation of entire societies to the point of extreme mental health damage. Throughout all this, the media have remained incurious as to how this historic misery happened. Anyone with a half a brain cell already knew that a new virus that started within a stone's throw of a biosafety level 4 laboratory in an authoritarian nation likely either leaked or was released from that laboratory. But acknowledging this obvious fact immediately led to expulsion from "polite" society, or at least from social media.

President Joe Biden is set to call on all U.S. K-12 schools to set up weekly COVID-19 testing for students, teachers and staff. It will be one of Biden's key strategies for combating the Delta variant surge, which will be announced during his speech on Thursday afternoon, according to an NBC report. The push for testing comes as record numbers of children fall ill with the virus, posing an immense challenge for the schools now reopening for their fall 2021 semester.(Snip)Through this regular testing, school leaders can identify cases in people who may be asymptomatic and not showing any symptoms.
DOJ Sues Texas, Says New Abortion Law

The Justice Department is suing Texas over a new state law that bans most abortions, arguing that it was enacted "in open defiance of the Constitution." The lawsuit, filed Thursday in federal court in Texas, asks a federal judge to declare that the law is invalid, "to enjoin its enforcement, and to protect the rights that Texas has violated." The Texas law, known as SB8, prohibits abortions once medical professionals can detect cardiac activity -- usually around six weeks before some women know they're pregnant. Courts have blocked other states from imposing similar restrictions, but Texas' law differs significantly because it leaves enforcement to private citizens
