MACDONALD: Your Money, Your Power, Vote Wisely

Before you vote in November, and you will vote (please), you need to understand something. I know, I’ve articulated a long list of things Democrats would do or will do if they get back in control of anything at any level of government. More crime, less enforcement, no detention of foreign criminals, ending fraud investigations- … Read more

MACDONALD: Get Off Your Ass

Depending on which AI you believe, fewer than 7 voters out of every 100 actually need to use vote by mail or an absentee ballot. Truly and absolutely need it and are, in fact, eligible to vote in the first place. As few as 1% to as many as 7%. Enough to move the election … Read more

Imani: Texas Cannot Afford an Attorney General Who Won’t Fight

Let’s be honest: following Ken Paxton is not a job for the faint of heart. For years, he took hit after hit from the left, from the media, and from the Austin establishment, and he still delivered victory after victory for Texas. He fought federal overreach in court and won. He fought the Biden administration … Read more

MACDONALD: If Pappas Isn’t Old Guard, What Is He?

The Democrats’ moderate party dress is ripped and torn to shreds. Always an affectation, their increasingly radicalized base has smeared the lipstick on the Marxist pig and shredded all pretense. The DSA is the Democrat Party; it’s just a matter of time before the next primary election and having enough numbers to rape and ravage … Read more

GrokTALK!: An Impassioned Appeal

This might be what you want me to do every week; I guess we’ll find out. I just started on Trump’s AGs, and it spirals into a “we’ ‘re getting things done” diatribe, Fauci hearing fallout, why you have to vote and vote Republican, an almost endorsement, why Democrats are a threat, how New Hampshire … Read more

ROPER: Republicans, Remember to Vote – In the Democrat Primary

First, let me say that open primaries are dumb. Parties should be free to pick their own candidates without outside shenanigans taking place, and if folks don’t want to be affiliated with a political party, good for you, that’s your choice, enjoy your summer, you get your say in the general election. That said, thems … Read more

MACDONALD: No Prisons, No Borders, Pro-Hamas, …

No shortage of opinion about the advance of DSA Candidates who are running boldly in Democratic primaries across the nation. No Abigail Spanberger, they. She pretended to be moderate, then once elected showed her true-blue colors. A tactic and result that ought to be playing wide in every race across the country. You can’t trust … Read more

MACDONALD: If Voters Were Treated Like Jurors

Two things non-citizens are not supposed to do in America, and yes, there are more, but let’s try not to get lost by insisting everything be viewed from 30,000 feet: vote and serve on a jury. Having experienced the call only once in my many decades in the same town and county, here in New … Read more

IMANI:  Between Liberty and A Radical Leftist Takeover

James Talarico represents an existential threat to American sovereignty, individual liberty, and the rule of law. His radical agenda serves as the Trojan horse designed to dismantle Texas and destroy the constitutional foundation of the United States. The radical cartel behind him seeks total political control over the Lone Star State. For years, the Washington … Read more

MACDONALD: Chris Pappas is Fighting “For” Corruption

Since our faux-milquetoast New Hampshire Dems are playing at being moderates, it is worth revisiting the topic. How do you pretend to go to DC to represent New Hampshire interests when neither of you, Goodlander nor Pappas, is capable of standing up to the radicals who will run your caucus? The nut house has fractured. … Read more

OPINION: What Keeps Vermont Deep Blue

As Vermont’s sole representative in the U.S. House, what has Rep. Becca Balint done to improve the plight of Vermont’s youth, the working class, senior citizens, and small businesses? If parroting her party’s line on national issues and feigning outrage over international events count, then she sure has done a lot. Meanwhile, the forgotten men … Read more
