In 2024 election, more voters identified as Republican, flipping a trend dating to FDR

By Sandy Fitzgerald  | Newsmax The 2024 election featured far more Republicans than Democrats in the electorate, reversing a longtime trend in party identification dating back to the New Deal in the 1930s. Exit polls showed Republicans outnumbering Democrats by 5 points in the AP VoteCast Survey and 4 points in network exit polls, writes Republican Party pollster and political strategist Patrick Ruffini on his Substack webpage, The Intersection, on Tuesday. Until the current election, Republicans only came out even with Democrats during the 1994 "Republican Revolution" and the period just after the 9/11 attacks. READ THE FULL STORY AT NEWSMAX

Documents reveal how George Soros controls prosecutors

By Luke Rosiak | Daily Wire As we prepare to enter the new year, we’re taking you back to some of The Daily Wire’s best reporting from 2024. This article was originally published on August 12.  George Soros and his son, Alex, have spent at least $117 million since 2016 to reshape America’s justice system. They’ve been successful: three in 10 Americans now live under a Soros prosecutor. But the Soroses’ influence doesn’t end on Election Day. After Soros-backed prosecutors take office, the family’s apparatus tells them what to do, documents show. The Media Research Center obtained nearly 8,000 pages of internal documents through public records laws that show how a Soros-funded group called Fair and Just Prosecution (FJP) “directed Soros prosecutors to manipulate th...

Biden spent one-quarter of his final year on Easy Street as he vacationed or worked remote

By Reagan Reese | Daily Caller President Joe Biden spent nearly a quarter of his final year in office, 24%, in Delaware, at Camp David or in vacation spots, a Daily Caller review of White House pool reports showed.

The Caller’s count includes the president’s current trip to St. Croix, which the White House has not released the end date of. In 2023, the president stayed until the second of the next year.

Commentary: The H-1B program is badly in need of reform

By National Review It’s in our national interest to skim exceptionally gifted people from other countries, but the current system has been exploited. Well, that, as they say, escalated quickly. Over Christmas, posts on X by Elon Musk and his allies in the tech sector in support of the H-1B visa program drew a backlash from MAGA accounts and created a roiling intra-right debate on immigration. If you ignore a few bigots who richly deserve it, the debate was a nice stocking stuffer for anyone who enjoys factional fights and heated discussion of the finer points of U.S. visa programs Count us in, but the two sides were largely talking past each other, or, at least, there’s an easy way to reconcile the best points of each side. Seeking to clarify himself under fire, Musk said he on...
