Stacey Abrams has been hit with a new legal headache. This week the Georgia Senate Special Committee on Investigations issued subpoenas for Abrams and two leaders of the New Georgia Project as lawmakers probe campaign finance rules tied to the 2018 election. The move forces an answer to a simple question: who knew what, and […] More

Former FBI Director James Comey turned a polite TV couch into a courtroom scolding this week when he told Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche to “bone up” on the legal rules. The moment came on NBC’s Meet the Press after Blanche publicly said the indictment against Comey rests on an 11‑month body of evidence — […] More

The news that a suspect quietly surrendered to police in the fatal stabbing of a University of Washington student is welcome, if long overdue. Seattle police say a 31-year-old man who was sought in connection with the killing turned himself in to Bellevue officers and was transferred to Seattle detectives. The victim was a 19-year-old […] More

Senator Mark Kelly just walked into a hornet’s nest on national TV. After a Pentagon classified briefing about U.S. munitions, he told Margaret Brennan on Face the Nation that it’s “shocking how deep we have gone into these magazines.” He named Tomahawks, ATACMS, SM-3, THAAD and Patriot rounds, warned replenishment would take years, and suggested […] More

Television is supposed to be a place for grown-up debate. Instead, we got a meltdown—live. A CNN panelist, Leigh McGowan, hit a high note of leftist theatrics during a debate about “taxing the rich,” then posted a follow-up video that somehow managed to be even more eyebrow‑raising. If you enjoy political theater, this is a […] More

South Carolina just watched a simple plan to redraw congressional lines stall at the state Senate. A vote to extend the legislative calendar failed to reach the two‑thirds majority it needed. That means the map change aimed at the state’s lone Democratic seat cannot move forward unless Governor Henry McMaster calls a special session — […] More

Acting Attorney General Todd Blanche walked onto Fox News and did something simple: he said the Department of Justice is sitting on “a ton of evidence” that the 2020 election was rigged, and he promised the American people will learn what investigators have uncovered. That’s a big claim coming from Main Justice, and it changes […] More

The Georgia Senate Special Committee on Investigations just served subpoenas on Stacey Abrams, Lauren Groh‑Wargo and Nsé Ufot, ordering them to appear before the panel later this week. This is not a made-for-TV stunt; it grows out of a State Ethics Commission consent order in which the New Georgia Project and its affiliated action fund […] More

The fight over Virginia’s “lobster map” has just gotten uglier and louder. Attorney General Jay Jones took the unusual step of asking Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. to issue an emergency administrative stay at the U.S. Supreme Court. He wants the Court to pause the Supreme Court of Virginia’s 4–3 decision that voided the […] More

President Donald Trump rolled out the next phase of TrumpRx — and yes, it’s big enough to make the drug lobby reach for its checkbook. The White House says the site will add more than 600 generic medicines, touting millions of visits and hundreds of millions of dollars in early savings. This is the kind […] More

Mayor Zohran Mamdani has done something bold: he pushed back the deadline for his executive budget and said he’s now waiting on Albany to fix a roughly $5.4 billion shortfall. That is the news. He also appears to be scrapping a plan to raise property taxes and instead is leaning hard on the State of […] More

Senator Dave McCormick made a plain, tough-minded point at Breitbart’s “Harnessing American Power” event: when President Donald Trump sits down with President Xi Jinping on his China trip this week, American energy exports and artificial intelligence should be at the top of the agenda. That’s not idle chatter — it’s a clear play to use […] More

Los Angeles voters got a reminder this week that reality TV drama does not make for good city government. A TMZ report says Spencer Pratt, who is running for Los Angeles mayor, spent weeks at the luxury Hotel Bel‑Air while his campaign ran ads of him in an Airstream trailer saying, “This is where I […] More

Governor Gavin Newsom quietly chose not to stop the parole of a convicted killer, and now a 75‑year‑old man convicted in a brutal 1974 murder is eligible to walk out of the California Men’s Colony. That decision — or deliberate lack of one — matters. It shows whose side the governor is on: the criminal’s […] More

Two stories collided on national TV this week: the Supreme Court changed the rules for drawing congressional maps, and Jesse Watters made a remark about Black representation that ignited predictable outrage. One is a complicated legal shift with real consequences for who picks your congressman; the other was crude, meant to needle a political argument, […] More

Secretary of State Marco Rubio boarded Air Force One with President Donald Trump and headed to Beijing — despite China having barred him years ago. Beijing found a neat little bureaucratic loophole: change the Chinese characters used to spell his name, and suddenly Rubio is no longer Rubio. At the same time, a photo of […] More

The Sandy Fire blew up this week in the Simi Valley area of Ventura County and moved fast enough to scare everyone awake. Wind‑driven flames pushed across dry brush, forced mandatory evacuations, and even closed the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library & Museum as a precaution. This is another reminder that wildfires in California are not […] More

President Trump’s trip to Beijing has set off a lot of chatter, and one line from retired Brigadier General Blaine Holt — “we just bought ourselves a summer of pleasant Chinese behavior” — sums up the nervous optimism on the table. Call it a diplomatic lull, a tactical pause, or a calculated PR move by […] More

Here’s the headline that should make Democrats nervous: NBC reports that former Vice President Kamala Harris privately told donors she supports releasing the Democratic National Committee’s secret “autopsy” of the 2024 campaign. That private admission matters because the DNC, led by Chair Ken Martin, has refused to publish the review. The move changes the inside-the-tent […] More

The latest chapter in Virginia’s redistricting drama reads like a bad law school exercise — high stakes, sloppy execution, and a desperate plea to a higher court to clean up the mess. Virginia Democrats rushed an emergency appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court after the Virginia Supreme Court threw out a voter‑approved redistricting amendment. Now […] More

Mayor Karen Bass’s campaign just hit a rough patch. She skipped a televised Los Angeles mayoral forum after a bruising debate, then jetted to Sacramento to press state leaders for funding. Pundits and political rivals smell weakness. Supporters call it essential work. Voters are left asking: did she duck a tough conversation or does she […] More
