Sen. Darline Graham and Rep. Ralph Norman on Tuesday advanced to a runoff in the snap Republican primary to replace the late Sen. Lindsey Graham. Graham, who touts President Donald Trump’s endorsement in the race, will be up against a longtime staple in Palmetto State politics and a stalwart Freedom Caucus conservative in Norman. Both candidates now face the immediate challenge to consolidate support from the losing candidates’ coalitions — including Rep. Russell Fry’s and former Gov. Mark Sanford’s — to win in two weeks. Whether Graham succeeds will reveal the power of Trump’s endorsement and whether the president can…

NEW YORK (AP) — Sir Rod Stewart will be unable to continue his “One Last Time” farewell tour following a coronary stent procedure and after postponing and canceling a few performances, a representative for the singer has confirmed. Stewart canceled his Tuesday night performance at Rocket Arena in Cleveland shortly after postponing his Sunday concert in Cincinnati at Riverbend Music Center. The latter venue said at the time that it was due “to an unforeseen but minor medical procedure that required prompt attention.” Stewart also canceled a few dates earlier this year, including two in Las Vegas and one in San Diego. “Following…

Establishment-backed Milwaukee County Executive David Crowley upset pollsters in Wisconsin’s Democrat gubernatorial primary on Tuesday, narrowly defeating socialist Francesca Hong to win the Democrat nomination. Crowley prevailed by less than a percentage point over Hong with almost all votes counted across the Badger state. He most notably left the chaotic race on July 8 before re-emerging nine days later after sitting Lt. Gov. Sara Rodriguez left the race due to a financial scandal. Crowley ran with the endorsement of outgoing Gov. Tony Evers and subsequently forced Mandela Barnes from the race. Barnes had received scrutiny over his treatment of women,…

American women are split on whether they would rather pursue a career or care for their family at home, if given the choice, a recent survey from the Economist/YouGov revealed. The survey asked respondents what they would do if they were given the choice — not dictated by life’s circumstances. “If either option were available, would you pursue a career outside the home or stay home to care for your family?” the survey asked. Across the board among all respondents, a plurality, 47 percent, said they would choose to pursue a career outside the home, compared to 37 percent who said…

Notching a first-place primary finish with an endorsement from President Donald Trump seems like a surefire path to victory in a deep-red state — unless you’re headed into a GOP runoff in South Carolina in 2026. Sen. Darline Graham scored her first ever electoral win as a political novice on Tuesday night, advancing to a runoff with Rep. Ralph Norman. Now comes the hard part. Just ask Lt. Gov. Pamela Evette, who, despite winning Trump’s endorsement and holding the lead after the first round of voting in June’s gubernatorial primary, eventually lost to Attorney General Alan Wilson in the runoff.…

  Last night in the Wisconsin Democrat primary, David Crowley defeated Francesca Hong by a little more than 3,200 votes.  This was after late-night drama unfolded in Milwaukee County just before midnight, as reported by The Gateway Pundit. According to a post from Urban Milwaukee co-founder, Jeramey Jannene on X: “5 of 9 USB drives had audit logs, not actual results, copied to them.  Bipartisan commission will go back to election warehouse, redownload, drive back again.  15k ballots believe to be impacted.  One hour delay.  “Human error” says Paulina Guiterrez. Wisconsin’s WISN 12 covered the press conference and the remarks…

Meta Glasses, often derided by critics as “pervert glasses”, will be confiscated if worn in courts in England and Wales, a report states. Courts in England and Wales have banned Meta Glasses as being contrary to longstanding rules prohibiting the creation of images inside courtrooms. A report in The Guardian states the technology will be confiscated from anyone trying to wear a pair inside courtrooms, but would be returned to owners upon their departure. The new rule clearly distinguishes the wearable tech from smart phones, which generally feature several cameras but are allowed in court rooms. This appears to be on…

Human smugglers are shifting their smuggling routes and are now attempting to exploit the U.S.- Canada border, which is considered to be more vulnerable. The revelation comes in a series of federal cases that show that international human smuggling organizations are trying to move hundreds of migrants through the northern border. The shift began during the Biden border crisis and recently began again as smuggling operations have become more difficult along the southern border due to increased barriers and manpower. One case took place late last month, when three men from Mexico who were in the country illegally pleaded guilty…
