Beattie claims that Eisen architects strategies to create chaos around elections. He stated on Tucker Carlson’s show that Eisen aims to engineer scenarios of voter fraud to stir…
Eric Swalwell’s recent announcement to run for governor of California raises critical questions about his legal eligibility. The congressman appears to violate clear constitutional requirements. According to California law, a candidate’s primary and permanent residence must be in California for at least five years prior to an election. Yet Swalwell’s own mortgage documents assert that his true home lies in Washington, D.C. The California Constitution, specifically Article V, Section 2, dictates that a governor must be a resident of the state. However, “resident” in this context is not merely where one receives mail. It requires establishing domicile, which is defined…
Bill Maher has struck a chord by criticizing the ultimatum issued by Jimmy Kimmel’s wife, Molly McNearney, to relatives who supported President Donald Trump. On his HBO show, Maher laid bare the problem with emotional blackmail, a strategy he argues only serves to alienate family members rather than foster real unity. “Ultimatums don’t make people rethink their politics. They make them rethink you,” he remarked, pointing out that blunt threats rarely bring about understanding in deeply held ideological conflicts. McNearney’s open letter outlining her reasons against supporting Trump seemed well-meaning, yet Maher sharply observed the unintended consequences of her approach.…

House lawmakers are expressing frustration after a tumultuous week characterized by numerous censure threats and votes to condemn colleagues.

The Rubio-led State Department’s announcement not only reframes the discussion around mass migration but also indicates a firm stance on issues of national security and stability among key American allies. The State Department’s declaration sets the stage for a more aggressive U.S. policy regarding migration. In a public…

Exploring Foreign Nationals in Public Office: Reflecting on Risks and Realities A recent tweet declaring that “America would be a better country if we banned every single foreigner from holding public office” has sparked widespread discussion. This bold statement resonates with many who are concerned about immigration and national security. It raises an essential question: Are foreign ties in public office inherently problematic?
