A new digital billboard at Fisherman's Wharf in San Francisco is evoking mixed reactions. It's an ad that shows support for ICE. ... The billboard reads, "Defensive Player of the Year: ICE."
Americans agree with Nicki Minaj when it comes to voter id. 83% of favor photo voter id to vote per Pew. This includes 70%+ of Democrats and Republicans, as well as 75%+ of Americans across races.... White, Black, and Latino. It's not controversial.
I am loath to give credit to my friends in the Democratic Party for much, but I will say this about them: They know how and when to circle the wagons to get things done in Congress. I hate this when it's done in practice, like when Senate Democrats passed the Affordable Care Actin 2009 with just 60 votes and no Republican support. Senate Republicans were able to narrowly pass the One Big Beautiful Bill Act in 2025 with Vice President JD Vance casting a tiebreaking vote. Republicans in Congress must learn from that success and also rip a page from the Democratic playbook and forge ahead with chutzpah to get one more bill passed. The Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) Act, which would require documentary proof of U.S. citizenship to register to vote in federal elections, passed the U.S. House with some bipartisan support and should be brought to the Senate floor.
Last week was National School Choice Week, an annual celebration of how giving families choices for their kids' education opens up all kinds of opportunities. Thanks to efforts at both the state and federal levels, more families than ever have access to public and private schools. (Well, only those who believe that parents know what's best for their own children celebrate these developments. So count out teachers union boss Randi Weingarten, who has devoted her life to limiting these choices and propping up the public school monopoly.) On the campaign trail, then-candidate Donald Trump promised to do what he could to expand educational choices, and as president, he has delivered in the first full year of his second term.
A Letter to the Left To those who still believe, from someone who once did too. I need to tell you something, and I need you to hear me out before you decide what I am. I was one of you. Not in some distant, theoretical way. I was deeply one of you. I marched. I shared the posts. I believed, with total conviction, that the progressive vision of the world was not only morally correct but self-evidently so. Anyone who disagreed was ignorant or malicious. I had Trump Derangement Syndrome, but then, I complained about all politicians. I couldn't see it was a case of choosing the best of'. I had no middle ground. And that's what finally shook me awake: the realisation that I had stopped allowing for middle ground. My thinking had become entirely black and white. I had radicalised"slowly, invisibly"without even noticing it was happening to me.
" And there's no security measures that could be implemented at all, right?

What kind of security measures would prevent fraud with nearly 90 million unused ballots floating around?
