Progressives forget that parents are in charge of kids’ education

A growing number of parents are pushing back on public school teachings they consider harmful to their children. They’ve raised a collective voice against divisive approaches like Critical Race Theory, radical gender policies, and the injection of woke ideology into almost every school subject. And they’re making a difference. After winning Virginia’s gubernatorial race earlier this month largely on an education platform, Glenn Youngkin assured Virginian parents he’s in their corner: “We’re going to restore excellence in our schools…We’re going to embrace our parents, not ignore them.” But many public education proponents aren’t so ...
NH Public Health Policy Has Officially Killed More “Kids” than COVID

Over the past 21 months, not one single resident under the age of 20 in the state of New Hampshire has died from COVID. In the few months since vaccination began and was encouraged by politicians and bureaucrats, two “kids” have been killed, and one is permanently disabled. The cure is more dangerous than the pathogen, so what does the state do? It takes millions in strings-attached federal dollars to run a massive marketing campaign to vaccinate as many kids as possible. I can see politicians’ disregard for public health, but what happened to physicians first doing no harm? These shots are, after all, being administered by state-certified or licensed practitioners. Have ...
Biden-Harris dream team suddenly Dems' worst nightmare after just 10 months

If the question is being asked, the answer is almost assuredly "no." That is a reference to an embattled officeholder facing inquiries about standing for reelection. Of course, the public company line must be "yes." Otherwise, the candidate in question becomes the lamest of lame ducks instantaneously. The business of governing grinds to a halt as underlings turn into rivals jockeying for position in the succession line. Ten months in, such is the sorry state of affairs of the Biden presidency. Even the U.S. House of Representatives passing the administration’s signature legislative priority could not snap the spell of a dreadful November swoon. THE REPUBLICAN ...
Democrats' deepest fears

DEMOCRATS' DEEPEST FEARS. Democratic strategists are still trying to figure out why a top party figure, Terry McAuliffe, lost the race for governor of Virginia. McAuliffe did all the right things from the 2021 Democratic playbook. He tried to portray his opponent, Republican Glenn Youngkin, as a far-right anti-vaxxer. He tried to portray Youngkin as a racist. And most of all, he tried to portray Youngkin as the living, breathing incarnation of Donald Trump. But it didn't work. So now, Democratic pollsters are doing some basic research. Why did voters reject McAuliffe? What, specifically, did he do wrong? Recently, a Democratic firm, ALG Research, which served as the top pollster ...
If GOP wins in 2022, they must investigate Biden family corruption

As Republicans and Democrats are examining the results of the November elections, including Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin’s convincing victory in Virginia, it is clear that campaigning on issues close to the heart of the American people will bring real political results in 2022 and 2024. However, the Republicans should not ignore the matters of integrity and government transparency and questions about corruption at the highest levels of U.S. politics. Jimmy Carter had his brother Billy, Colonel Muammar Qaddafi’s registered foreign agent. Similarly, Roger Clinton, Bill Clinton’s half-brother, was paid by the Gambino mafia family figure, for whom he allegedly tried to arrange ...
BOOM: Trump Gets Even MORE Good News From 5 Key Battleground States

A brand new poll of 5 key battleground states spells even more doom for Joe Biden’s 2024 prospects. A new internal poll of Wisconsin, Michigan, Pennsylvania, Arizona and Georgia shows Trump now leading those states by double digits over Biden. In their report, Fabrizio, Lee & Associates say, “In all five states, President Trump leads President Biden in a hypothetical 2024 ballot, has a significantly stronger job approval rating than Biden, and seen as better able to handle a host of key issues tested. Simply put, at this juncture battleground state voters want Donald Trump leading this country instead............
The Corrupt Media Did Not Fall For The Russia Collusion Hoax. They Were Part Of It

Soon after Special Counsel John Durham indicted Igor Danchenko, the “Primary Sub-Source” of the Steele dossier, on five counts of lying to the FBI, the press paused to feign a moment of public introspection. The corrupt media’s attempt to frame their failings as mere confirmation bias, however, holds no truer than the Russia-collusion hoax they peddled for five years. The proof of this reality is seen in the prostitute sex tapes: the non- existent “golden showers” one and the verifiable, but ignored, Hunter Biden videos. The first step of what appeared, at least momentarily, to be the kick- off of a mea culpa parade came earlier this month when the Washington ...
How Facebook and Google Actually Fund the Creation of Misinformation

MIT's Technology Review shares data from a Facebook-run tool called CrowdTangle. It shows that by 2018 in the nation of Myanmar (population: 53 million), " All the engagement had instead gone to fake news and clickbait websites. "In a country where Facebook is synonymous with the internet, the low- grade content overwhelmed other information sources." [T]he sheer volume of fake news and clickbait acted like fuel on the flames of already dangerously high ethnic and religious tensions. It shifted public opinion and escalated the conflict, which ultimately led to the death of 10,000 Rohingya, by conservative estimates, and the displacement of 700,000 more. In 2018, a United ...
Whistleblower Videos Capture Pennsylvania Election Officials Destroying Evidence

Several residents of Delaware County Pennsylvania filed a sprawling lawsuit Thursday against the former Secretary of State Kathy Boockvar, Delaware County, the Delaware County Board of Elections, and more than a dozen individual election officials. The lawsuit followed Wednesday’s night release of videotapes taken by a whistleblower capturing concerning behavior by several election officials in the Keystone state. A source familiar with the lawsuit provided access to the tapes, noting the then-unnamed whistleblower had come forward with video evidence purporting to show Delaware County, Pennsylvania election officials destroying records from the November 2020 general election.

Feehery: The next Republican wave is coming

In my short three decades in Washington, I have seen two huge Republican waves and I am anticipating a third one a year from now. The latest generic ballot has Republicans up a touchdown and a field goal, the largest margin I have ever witnessed. If the GOP screws this one up, it will be the most epic fail in history. There were signs that 1994 was going to be a big year for Republicans, but the establishment had become so used to Democrats running the House that nobody truly believed that then-Rep. Newt Gingrich (Ga.) could take the Speaker’s gavel. Those signs included an incompetent Clinton administration, abject corruption in the House, a favorable issue set for a center-right ...
Proof that AG Garland misled Congress about silencing parents who dissent

Attorney General Merrick Garland stands exposed as a liar or a fool. He testified to Congress last month that he didn’t order the targeting of parents who criticize schools policies, let alone treat them as domestic terrorists. Now an internal Justice Department memo shows just that is under way. Garland needs to explain his apparent perjury, pronto. And quash the efforts that the memo exposes. Again: He told lawmakers that Justice and the FBI are not using counterterror tools to target parents, as the National School Boards Association had requested in a letter crafted with the White House. Yet House Republicans this week released a whistleblower’s bombshell e-mail — sent ...
IT’S NOT JUST WHITE PEOPLE: DEMOCRATS ARE LOSING NORMAL VOTERS OF ALL RACES

LAST MONDAY, a Democratic firm hosted focus groups with women in Virginia who voted in 2017 for Democratic Gov. Ralph Northam, in 2020 for Democratic President Joe Biden, and then this month for Republican Gov.-elect Glenn Youngkin. It was centered on suburban women: a group that pivoted significantly to the right in the governor’s election. Consultant Danny Barefoot said that Anvil Strategies called roughly 30,000 people in Virginia. Most didn’t answer, but several hundred of them fit the criteria he was looking for: people who voted Democrat, Democrat, Republican in the last three elections. Those people were called back and offered a $100 gift card if they’d do a ...
Pinkerton: Joe Biden and John Kerry’s Green Great Reset Punishes America, Rewards China

Western Guilt and the Great Reset Here’s the bottom line on the just-ended COP 26, the international climate change conference that’s been meeting for the last two weeks in Glasgow, Scotland. The Biden administration, speaking for the United States, has committed itself to substantial cuts in carbon dioxide emissions in the coming decades; as President Biden himself said in Glasgow on November 1, the U.S. will commit to 50-52 percent reductions in CO2 from 2005 levels by the year 2030. Biden further pledged a “net-zero emissions economy” by no later than 2050. These promises, Biden added, “will demonstrate to the world” that the U.S. is “not only ...
Byron York's Daily Memo: The Biden White House dumpster fire

THE BIDEN WHITE HOUSE DUMPSTER FIRE. President Joe Biden's plunging public approval rating isn't his problem. It is a reflection of his problem. Biden has scheduled a big ceremony today to sign the bipartisan infrastructure bill, the $1.2 trillion measure passed after months of wrangling in Congress. The public is well aware of it. And yet, in a new Washington Post poll , taken after the bill's passage, Biden's job approval rating has hit a new low — just 38% among registered voters, versus 57% who disapprove. So much for those Democrats who thought passing a big bill would boost Biden's numbers. Here's what's worse — much worse. For many years, ...
Washington Post edits and adds editor's notes to at least a dozen Steele dossier stories

The Washington Post has amended at least a dozen reports investigating the genesis and fallout of the Steele dossier, an opposition research project that is almost certainly a work of total fiction if not Russian counterintelligence propaganda. Two articles in particular, one from 2017 and one from 2019 , have undergone significant edits, with major portions of the reporting removed entirely. Both stories also bear lengthy editor’s notes. The 2017 story, titled originally, “Who is ‘Source D’? The man said to be behind the Trump-Russia dossier’s most salacious claim,” identified businessman Sergei Millian as a key source for the dossier. Millian, for his part, ...

WHEN ADAM SCHIFF LOVED THE DOSSIER. March 2017 was a heady time for Trump-Russia conspiracy theorists. The collapse of their enterprise lay two years in the future, when Robert Mueller, the special counsel in whom they placed their hopes of bringing down President Donald Trump, announced that after an intensive investigation he could not establish any conspiracy or coordination between the Trump campaign and Russia in the 2016 election. Their total embarrassment lay more than four years away when another special counsel, John Durham, would release findings showing that their theory was not only wrong but laughably wrong — if a theory that did so much damage to the American polity could ...
What Did Obama Know and When Did He Know It?

n researching my 2020 book, Unmasking Obama, I focused on one question above all others: What did Barack Obama know about the plot to link Donald Trump to Russia and when he did he know it? Unlike the Watergate era, when all the insiders in government and media rushed to discover what Nixon knew, only the outsiders have dared to ask about Obama. Major credit here goes to Rep. Devin Nunes and his chief investigator Kash Patel, Inspector General Michael Horowitz, former Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe, and most recently Special Counsel John Durham. For all their good efforts, however, this probe remains very much a work in progress. That caution established, the answer to ...
Joe Biden is all-in for open borders

Until recently, there was still hope the Biden administration would reverse course and bring law and order back to the southern border. Those hopes were annihilated on Oct. 29, when Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas released a curt, four-page memo terminating, once again, Donald Trump’s Migrant Protection Protocols. Before the COVID pandemic, the program had successfully brought order to the southern border by ending the release of illegal immigrants into the United States. Before its creation, illegal immigrants arrested for illegally crossing the southern border would tell Customs and Border Protection agents that they feared returning to their home countries. All of ...
NJ Senate President Stephen Sweeney concedes election loss to GOP trucker Edward Durr

Democratic New Jersey Senate President Stephen Sweeney bowed to the inevitable Wednesday night, finally conceding that he had lost his bid for reelection to Republican furniture truck driver Edward Durr — a political novice who spent a relative pittance on his campaign. “I of course accept the results,” Sweeney said during a news conference at the State House in Trenton. “I want to congratulate Mr. Durr and wish him the best of luck.” Sweeney, the most powerful Democratic politician in New Jersey over the last decade and the longest-serving state Senate president, blamed his loss on a “red wave” that also saw Gov. Phil Murphy barely hold off Republican ...
Virginia Paves the Way for Trump’s Return

here has been a great deal of discussion of the widespread Republican victories last week, many of them belaboring the obvious. Fundamentally, the United States is a political society based on personal freedom, a free market, and on democratically legislated and responsibly enforced laws. The current administration’s belief in virtually unrestricted immigration, higher taxes, authoritarian regulation—including COVID vaccine mandates, and a heavy redistribution of wealth from those who have earned it to those who have not—are all antagonistic to the ethos that the United States has had for all of its history. In the circumstances, some sort of reversal was almost inevitable ...
Joe Biden just keeps on lying to the American public: Devine

President Biden appears to be suffering from a bad case of malarkey syndrome. A textbook example was presented last week when he was asked about his administration’s proposal to pay up to $450,000 compensation per person to illegal migrant families that had been separated under the Trump administration. It was “garbage,” “not true” and “not gonna happen,” he told Fox News’ Peter Doocy at a White House press conference Wednesday. The president was so emphatic, it seemed to be an open-and-shut case. The Wall Street Journal’s story revealing the Department of Justice negotiations with migrant families must be wrong. But not so fast. If you are ...

LOUDOUN COUNTY, Va.—The beer was flowing, the handmade potato chips were self-serve, and hope was in the air. Early in the night, the Loudoun County Democrats who gathered at the Döner Bistro in Leesburg were cautiously—anxiously—optimistic: Sure, it had been a rough year. A global pandemic, regular protests at the local school- board meetings, and the contentious governor’s race, rife with misinformation, had pitted neighbor against neighbor. But these volunteers had done the work. They were confident that Democrats could pull off the first victory of the midterm cycle and set the stage for next year’s elections. “The commonwealth moves forward, not ...

It is always tempting to draw national conclusions from local elections, even more so in a gubernatorial election held in the White House’s backyard the year after a presidential election. All the more reason to start an analysis of Tuesday’s Virginia governor's race with the man most responsible for the outcome: Glenn Youngkin. Youngkin is a political newcomer who has proven to be a disciplined, effective, and energetic campaigner. After winning the Republican primary by making election integrity a top issue, Youngkin steadily worked under the radar to unite a fractured Virginia Republican Party that had not won a statewide election since 2009. At times, it may have seemed ...
What to watch for in Virginia on election night

Voters head to the polls in Virginia on Tuesday to choose their next governor, and leaders from both parties are holding their collective breath to see who comes out on top in a race as close as any in recent memory. Republican Glenn Youngkin entered Election Day with a slight lead, edging out Democrat Terry McAuliffe by 1.7 points in the RealClearPolitics average of polling. But Virginia remains a solidly blue state, and no Republican has won a statewide contest there in more than a decade, giving the GOP reason for pessimism despite the clear momentum Youngkin amassed in the final weeks of the race. Here’s what to watch heading into Tuesday evening. When we'll see results ...
