We knew that Penny Flanagan winning the Democrat Senate primary in Minnesota on Tuesday was going to yield some campaign trail hilarity, but we didn't know it would start this soon. Flanagan, as Tim Walz's current lieutenant governor, is a known quantity – and none of it's good. Depending on the day, you might find her wearing a t-shirt condoning violence or donning a hijab to show she's one with the Somali Muslim community. In short, she's bat-guano crazy. And although her name makes it sound like she grew up catching leprechauns in Kilkelly, Ireland – and she is part Irish –

Walz was revealed to the nation as an incompetent fool. Only other incompetent fools would vote for his Lt Governor to be one of their senators. The corruption is so overwhelming in this state, it is hard to believe that this person could win another state office, let alone the US Senate. We shall see.

A Texas high school teacher was reduced to tears and broke down in front of his class when he realized the seniors he was teaching couldn’t complete a writing exercise. Darius Williams, a teacher for Houston Independent School District’s Wheatley High School, said he couldn’t get through the first class of the second day of school before his students’ poor literacy skills were too much for him. “I just finished a three-hour class, and I literally broke down in the middle of class,” Williams said in an Instagram video during his lunch break on Tuesday.

The U.S. Department of Justice (DOJ) unsealed a two-count indictment charging 11 individuals for orchestrating a massive, decade-long marriage fraud network that arranged over 1,000 sham marriages. Federal prosecutors described the operation as one of the largest marriage fraud prosecutions in U.S. history, spanning “from 2016 through July 2026 and generating tens of millions of dollars in illegal revenue.” The criminal scheme primarily aimed to secure fraudulent green cards and lawful permanent residency for foreign nationals, predominantly citizens of the People’s Republic of China, the DOJ noted. According to the 21-page indictment unsealed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York,

There's an old saw in conservative circles that says, "When a liberal calls you a racist, that means you're winning the argument." For the most part, that's true. Leftists shout "Racism!" reflexively, not thoughtfully. Also, their responses to conservatives are based on fictional evil caricatures that, in their minds, justify their unhinged emotional responses to anything we say or do. A classic example from recent times is the noxious diaper-filling lefties experience whenever they see a MAGA hat. "Make America Great Again"="racism" in the Democrats' fever dream. I am not saying that racism has been eradicated in the United States or the world. However,

Former Obama advisor David Axelrod was on a CNN panel talking about the primaries that were going on Tuesday. In the process, the panel spoke about election fraud issues. As our sister site Townhall reported, that's when Pete Seat, a former spokesman for President George W. Bush and the Indiana Republican Party, dropped some news of which many were not aware. Seat explained the problem with how Barack Obama got on the ballot in a county in Indiana. Seat explained that Democrats were accused of submitting false ballot petition signatures, including for Obama, and that people were convicted over that.

Jen Psaki admitted something horrible about the Democrat Party on MSNOW last night, during their coverage of the Wisconsin Democrat primary for governor. Psaki came right out and admitted that the leaders of the Democrat Party typically choose the party’s nominees, not the voters. Everyone knows this is true. Obviously, no one voted to make Kamala Harris the 2024 Democrat presidential nominee, but you don’t expect to hear someone like Psaki admit this on the air. From the Vigilant Fox: Jen Psaki admits on MSNBC that Democratic Party leadership used to “SELECT” the nominees, and nobody was allowed to say it out loud until now.

One of the more surreal things about the new Democratic Party is its habit of charging Trump with legal and ethical transgressions that Democrats themselves normalized years ago. The result is a strange sort of projection, in which the Left’s charges often reveal its own prior wrongdoing. And after undermining norms, they now lament the loss of what they destroyed. Too Cozy an Attorney General? Democratic Senators voted unanimously against Todd Blanche for attorney general, claiming that, as a former Trump attorney, he was too close to the president. Really? Even if true, the model came from the Democrats—

United States military officials said Tuesday that one of its fighter jets intercepted a civilian plane that was flying through restricted airspace in Ohio above a town that President Donald Trump was visiting for a high school athletic event. The president attended the finale of the 2026 Patriot Games in Geneva, Ohio, where over 100 high school students ages 14-17 representing states and territories competed against each other in a showcase of determination, resilience and hometown pride. The North American Aerospace Defense Command said it intercepted the aircraft at approximately 6:15 p.m. Eastern and dispensed flares that may have been visible to the public on the ground.

A report from Just The News revealed that a spreadsheet that was “recovered from U.S. intelligence agency files” and that the White House Government Transparency Task Force “made public,” contained names such as former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and former President Barack Obama, along with Pompeo and Barr.

During an interview on ABC News, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., said that “Woke 1 was crazy” when trying to defend Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong. ABC News’ Jonathan Karl asked about Hong’s previous statements about abolishing the police and that Americans should “cancel Thanksgiving.” “My understanding is that — is that Francesca Hong has made clear her present stances to her electorate,” Ocasio-Cortez said. “She’s moved away from it, and I have a local city councilman that has this saying, ‘Woke 1 was crazy.'”

Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley beat Democratic socialist Francesca Hong in a come-from-behind victory during the Wisconsin gubernatorial primary Tuesday night. Crowley was ahead of the 37-year-old state representative and member of the Democratic Socialists of America 39.8% to 39.4% when the race was called by the Associated Press at 3:34 a.m. Surveys ahead of the Badger State Democratic contest had consistently showed Hong besting Crowley by double digit percentage points. Crowley had also dropped out of the race weeks before and even endorsed another opponent, before re-entering the contest and receiving the backing of outgoing Gov. Tony Evers

President Donald Trump is leaving the door open to declaring a national security emergency over the 2026 midterm elections, stating Monday that "stranger things have happened." Conservative commentator and Real America's Voice host Wayne Allyn Root made the suggestion in an interview, noting that it could be done if the Senate fails to pass the SAVE America Act when it returns from its recess next month. The host commented that if the president does declare a national security emergency and federalize the elections, then he would get everything he wanted without needing the Senate's assistance.

The relative peace experienced in Ireland over the past three decades may be in jeopardy as descendants of the Irish Republican Army may turn to terrorism to root out migrant populations from the country, security officials have warned. While “Ireland for the Irish” was once a common refrain amongst advocates against British control of all or part of the island, the phrase appears set to take on a new meaning of opposition to the dispossession of the native population by dint of the mass migration agenda imposed on the country by globalist governments in Dublin. According to a report from the Daily Mail, security sources in Britain are concerned that a potential

Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once declared his sacred "obligation" to follow Sharia law in every aspect of his life until he meets his maker on the day he dies, according to unearthed comments he made to the New York Times in 2009 as a young man buying his first home. "Ultimately, the question is, when I die and I stand before God and go through everything I did in my life, I don't want to say I did it the easy way instead of the Shariah-compliant way. Not because of fear but because of obligation," said El-Sayed,

Hopefully this will be a lesson to multiple people, including President Donald Trump. There is no room for softness on the topic of deporting illegal aliens. In one of the biggest examples of a mistake in Republican campaigning, three weeks before the primary election Minnesota Governor candidate Mike Lindell made the fatal mistake of advocating for greater leniency for illegal aliens, with inferred amnesty in his immigration platform. The backlash was fierce, righteous and directly targeted. Lindell was blasted. Last night, despite the support and endorsement from President Trump, Lindell was resoundingly defeated by Lisa Demuth, the speaker of the Minnesota House.

Host Peter Alexander said, “The president has had a hard time getting his SAVE America Act effort through. We’ve heard a lot on this conversation as it relates to voting restrictions. He wants to pass it through Congress. He doesn’t have the votes right now.” After playing a clip of Trump discussing the midterms, Alexander asked, “Your reaction to that?

White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt is departing her post at the end of August to spend more time with her family, President Trump announced. Leavitt, 28, a mother of two and the youngest ever White House press secretary, gave birth to her second child, Viviana, in May and had officially just returned from maternity leave last month. Trump, 80, hailed her as “one of my most trusted aides.” “Karoline will now be one of my top outside advisors, and an influential voice within the Republican Party, as we work to defy History, and conclusively win the Midterm Elections,” Trump posted on Truth Social.

Just weeks after announcing that it will lose up to $4.5 billion this year making electric cars, Ford unveiled its next plug-in attempt: the Ford Fathom truck. So it goes with EVs. No matter how loudly consumers say they don’t want them, those “in the know” keep telling us that the future is electric and that success is just around the corner. Last month, for example, the mainstream press was giddy over a slight rebound in EV sales in the second quarter compared with the first. As Business Insider put it, “The U.S. EV market comes back from the dead. Thank high gas prices.”

Ward Churchill, the former University of Colorado professor whose writings and outspoken political views ignited a national debate over academic freedom and free speech, has died. His former lawyer says Churchill died of a stroke. Iliff School of Theology Professor Emeritus Tink Tinker, a member of the Osage Nation, said Churchill "was part of the American Indian Movement from the early 1980s. All of the people who criticized him never read his body of work. His books get at the truth of what happened and is happening to American Indians on Turtle Island, this continent. It persistently challenges the usual narrative of what I call the American romance."

Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers may soon be outfitted with gloves that can deliver painful electric shocks intended to gain compliance from combative individuals. ICE plans to spend up to $20 million to purchase thousands of “conductive distraction and de-escalation devices” for officers and agents by March, according to a notice published Monday by the Department of Homeland Security. The devices are known as the G.L.O.V.E., which stands for Generated Low Output Voltage Emitter, and are manufactured by Compliant Technologies LLC of Lexington, Kentucky. They have been used in recent years by some jails and police departments.

Everyone loves fireworks on July 4th. Or well everyone who loves America anyway. That may not include the man from Dearbonistan. Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed once asked his YouTube viewers whether Americans could “PLEASE” find another way to celebrate the Fourth of July, in a video promising four reasons “why fireworks suck.” In one episode that remains online, he questioned whether football could be “ethical” or “safe” and linked the sport’s “ethos” to narratives used to justify slavery and westward expansion. In another he floated replacing the Second Amendment’s right to bear arms with a constitutional right to health care.

Britain’s left-wing Burnham government unveiled plans to spread boat migrants, asylum seekers, and refugees across the country because middle-class communities haven’t taken their “fair share” yet. Planting migrants in working-class areas — because housing there is cheap — has caused “a huge burden on local communities and created real civil unrest”, so the logical next step is to spread that to middle-class areas next, which haven’t yet taken “their fair share”, the British government has communicated. The extraordinary series of public relations flubs began on Monday when Prime Minister Andy Burnham was offered the opportunity to meet with locals from a small village about to be overwhelmed by a migrant camp

Four white clergy members and one white seminarian are running for Congress as Democrats, part of a growing trend of white politicians seeking to court Christian voters while embracing left-wing ideas. Unlike Democrats of the past, these five candidates represent a party that has shifted drastically, embracing policies ranging from same-sex marriage and unfettered abortion access to feminism and forced diversity. Sarah Trone Garriott, James Talarico, Robb Ryerse, Anna Golladay, and Lindsay James are attempting to blend the language of “faith, freedom, and family” Christians with the increasingly progressive policies of the modern left. White clergy members running for Congress as Democrats are a rarity. Since the 1970s, only three have been
