Democrat Michigan candidate Sean McCann, running in the state’s Fourth Congressional District, believes it is nonsensical to question voting systems despite challenging it himself years ago to the tune of $10,000. McCann, whom some consider a rising star among Democrats, seems to believe election integrity efforts — such as showing basic voter ID — is unnecessary. In 2021, the Michigan Senate member — formerly a member of the Michigan House of Representatives — voted against state voter ID legislation, which would have required a person to “show an original or a copy of identification when requesting an absentee ballot in person…

Karmelo Anthony mug shot Karmelo Anthony’s re-trial bid continues to go off the rails for him as more shocking information comes to light about his past. As The Daily Mail’s MaryAnn Martinez reported, Collin County prosecutor Bill Wirskye delivered explosive new evidence on Friday that was never heard by the jury in Anthony’s June trial for killing Austin Metcalf, which took place in Collin County. Such evidence included Anthony’s school disciplinary records, which date back to when he was just 6 or 7 years old in Baton Rouge. His problems were so severe that he was placed on a behavioral…
I think nothing enrages Americans more than a lack of accountability from government officials. Yes, it happens often, and the public hasn’t taken up torches and pitchforks (yet), but I would point out that these incidents are cumulative and they light a growing fire within the collective memory. Eventually, people are going to snap if they don’t see action taken to rectify past wrongs. This week, Dr. Anthony Fauci faced a flurry of questions from the Senate Homeland Security Committee over his handling of the covid response as well as his involvement in the gain of function research which likely…
ELSENBORN, Belgium (AP) – The wildfires burning across Europe this summer have exposed a potentially deadly threat lurking beneath the blackened landscape: rusty bombs and mines from World War I and II that threaten crews responding to the flames. Some of the weapons have exploded in the intense heat. Blasts have been reported in France, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands, where a bomb-disposal team was dispatched to check a forest threatened by flames near a site of fierce fighting in the Limburg province in 1944. Fueled by climate change, the fires and explosions show that the continent’s “climatic luck” is…

Peltola “missed nearly one in five votes in the Alaska House of Representatives and more than a third of Bethel City Council meetings during her time in office, records show,” the outlet said. She reportedly missed 794 of over 4,000 House votes during her five…
Texas Democrat Senate candidate James Talarico claimed the criminal justice system “is not working for black Texans” in a video of his remarks on Karmelo Anthony’s murder trial that resurfaced Wednesday. The clip, drawn from Talarico’s August 5 appearance on the New York radio show The Breakfast Club, resurfaced after the Texas Democrat was asked to explain why he had earlier nodded along as a town hall attendee called Anthony’s conviction a “tragedy.” Talarico said his work on justice reform in the Texas House convinced him the state fails black defendants, then rested his argument on the makeup of the…

Screencap of Twitter/X video. Angie Nixon is the far left Democrat who defeated Alex Vindman in the recent Democrat primary. Nixon is a member of the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA), but is now trying to distance herself from the increasingly toxic organization. Socialism is not going to fly in Florida and she knows it. The amazing aspect of this story is how the media is bending over backwards to help her accomplish the feat of separating herself from the DSA. FOX News reports: Florida Democratic Senate nominee Angie Nixon distanced herself from several major planks in the Democratic Socialists…
