No Books. No Money. Just the Truth. That's the title of the meandering Substack post Steve Schmidt threw up last week at the tail end of a two-day Twitter bender. In that time, he didn't take more than an hour away from the keyboard, tapping out stilted and overwrought attacks against the late war hero John McCain and his daughter, Meghan.Since then, he's widened the aperture, lashing out at the living, from Republican lawmakers (New York Rep. Elise Stefanik, Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts) to journalists (Maggie Haberman, Matt Lewis, Jonah Goldberg) and another subset of former colleagues (sorry, Lincoln Project).

Let the record show I had no use for McCain, although (full disclosure), I voted for him. But this cat, Schmidt. He’s more worthless than McCain. (McCain never turned on Miss Lindsey.)

I did not vote for McCain, I voted for Governor Palin, a fantastic woman. What these creatures let her go through was a disgrace.

McCain was a war hero? Does crashing a lot of planes and getting captured mean he was a war hero? He was a disgrace. His old man swept all the bad stuff away.

President Joe Biden has finally decided to stop working with Republicans and pounce on the party of former President Donald Trump instead. In a Politico piece Tuesday, sources told the site that there wasn't a single moment that sparked the change of course, but months of frustration, including that the GOP wouldn't work with the White House to combat inflation. 'I never expected the ultra-MAGA Republicans who seem to control the Republican Party now to have been able to control the Republican Party,' Biden said publicly last week. 'I never anticipated that happening.'

Polling stations for North Carolina's primary elections have closed as of 7:30 p.m. on Tuesday evening, with all eyes on scandal-plagued Rep. Madison Cawthorn's first re-election bid. Cawthorn was trailing his main rival, state Senator Chuck Edwards, by just over 10 points with 40 percent of ballots counted nearly an hour after voting ended. The 26-year-old Republican's race has proven to be a test of Donald Trump's endorsement strength, as election watchers wait to see whether the ex-president's support could push him over the line despite a litany of recent public relations crises.

The first trial to emerge from Special Counsel John Durham's probe finally got underway Tuesday – as prosecutors accused former Hillary Clinton lawyer Michael Sussmann of trying to engineer an 'October surprise' when he sought out a top FBI official to discuss an allegation about Trump and Russia. The allegation didn't pan out, but the meeting itself constituted an effort to 'use and manipulate' federal law enforcement for political ends, prosecutors argued. Sussmann's defense team argued he was forthright when he acted on his own to bring information to authorities, and said the intervention did not benefit the Clinton camp in any way.

A typical rich American is not who we think they are, but actually the owner of a 'regional business,' such as an 'auto dealer' or a 'alcohol or soft drinks distributor.' While doing research for his book, author Seth Stephens-Davidowitz said he was shocked to learn that more than 140,000 Americans who earn more than $1.58 million per year are owners of so-called 'unsexy' businesses. These include auto repair shops, gas stations and business equipment contractors.

The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases director used an interview on CNN to reveal he does not want to serve under the former president if he is re-elected in 2024 and would likely resign. “If Trump were to return to the White House as President, and COVID was still a threat or there was some other public health emergency, would you have confidence in his ability to deal with a pandemic of this nature? Would you want to stay on at your post?” Acosta asked Fauci.

For those who scoff that Florida’s new education law bans “non-existent” gender indoctrination, let the tale of Fairfax County, Virginia serve as a wake-up call. Fairfax County’s school board has long prided itself on leading the way for the nation in cutting-edge education policy and curriculum. As the tenth-largest district in the nation, it holds disproportionate sway over other school boards. In 2015, the Fairfax school board blindsided parents with changes to its non-discrimination policy, followed by a sweeping expansion of the sex-ed curriculum and new rules governing student offenses and penalties.
