Trump, RNC raised $65.6 million in March, outpacing March 2020; has $93.1 million in cash on hand

By ALEX ISENSTADT | POLITICO Former President Donald Trump and the Republican National Committee raised $65.6 million in March and ended the month with $93.1 million in cash on hand, according to figures provided to POLITICO. Trump’s allies hope the amount will ease concerns about his fundraising and the cash deficit he is facing against President Joe Biden. The figure — which covers a number of fundraising vehicles that will all have to disclose their activities to the Federal Election Commission later this month — outpaces the $62 million that Trump raised in March 2020, when he was running for reelection. Biden’s political operation has yet to announce its March fundraising haul, though it has said it raised $25 million during a New York City fundraiser last week that was atten...

Meta falsely links pro-parent school board president to child abuse images

BY JORDAN BOYD | The Federalist The Californians at the center of one of the biggest parents’ rights fights in the nation right now were targeted last month when Meta falsely associated searches of their names with a warning about “child sexual abuse.” President of Chino Valley Unified School District Sonja Shaw was one of two parents’ rights activists who, after supporting a policy requiring school staff to notify parents if their child indicates gender dysphoria, faced unfounded smears from Meta’s Facebook and Instagram. A screenshot of searches on these platforms from an attorney for Shaw shows that, for an undefined period, searches including Shaw’s name or position were blocked by a notification warning about child sexual abuse.

Why Mike Johnson’s perch has suddenly grown precarious with the walls closing in on the Speaker

By RACHAEL BADE | Politico To hear Mike Johnson tell it, he’s not having much fun as speaker. He has complained about the long hours and constant travel, according to those who have recently spoken to him, and a series of escalating internal clashes have made the job a joyless slog. At least there’s this: Many of his colleagues don’t believe he’ll be doing it much longer. Five months after replacing the deposed Kevin McCarthy, the Louisiana Republican now finds himself acutely vulnerable to a right-wing revolt of his own after governing in conjunction with Democrats, pushing through twin bipartisan spending packages and making way for a Ukraine funding vote later this month.

Liberal group drops $57 million in eight key states to stop Latino voters abandoning Biden

ByBrady Knox | Washington Examiner A prominent Latino liberal group is spending $57 million to bring out Latino voters for President Joe Biden as his approval continues to fall. Somos Votantes, which runs the Somos PAC, told NBC News that $33 million of the total will be devoted toward mobilizing Latinos in support of Biden and other Democrats in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Texas, and Wisconsin. The remainder will be spent on expanding voter education programs. “Latinos are the biggest and fastest growing segment of the electorate with more than 4 million new voters since the last presidential election, so we want to make sure that we are reaching them in every way possible,” Somos Votantes President Melissa Morales told th...

With or without Kennedy, Trump would defeat Biden in 6 of 7 swing states, poll finds

60% disapprove of Biden's job performance, 74% say inflation, border security has worsened By BRIAN PORTER | The Rocky Mountain Voice Donald Trump would win election in six of seven swing states with or without Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., in the field, a Wall Street Journal poll in March of likely voters finds. In a heads-up election between Trump and Joe Biden, the former president has an overall 3% lead over Biden, finds the poll of 600 voters each in Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, North Carolina, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. In the heads-up election, Trump would win all states and tie Biden in Wisconsin. If Kennedy were on the ballot, Trump would defeat Biden by 3% overall and win in each of the states except Wisconsin, where Biden wins by 3%. Trump, a Republican, and Biden...

Total solar eclipse causes one state to declare emergency in advance of phenomenon

By Jack Phillips | The Epoch Times Indiana Gov. Eric Holcomb issued a statewide emergency due to a large influx of visitors to his state to view the total solar eclipse on April 8. The Republican official said that the number of visitors to Indiana may strain the state’s communications, transportation, and emergency response systems, warranting the need for the declaration. Indiana includes some of the best locations in the United States to see the eclipse, according to a map of the path of totality. “The massive number of people viewing this event in our state may well stress and/or interfere with first responder and public safety communications and emergency response systems such that a technological or other emergency may occur,” Mr. Holcomb said in a statement last week, addin...

By Aubrie Spady , Paul Steinhauser  | FOX News The Congressional Leadership Fund (CLF) dropped its first round of "trailblazer" endorsements for the 2024 election cycle, a major advancement in Republican efforts to expand their slim House majority in the fall. CLF, a top Republican super PAC closely aligned with House Speaker Mike Johnson that supports and invests in Republican congressional campaigns across the country, made 20 key House endorsements Wednesday that were shared first with Fox News Digital. Throughout their campaigns, the selected Republican candidates will receive financial support from the group's Trailblazers Fund, a hard-dollar arm set up ahead of the 2018 midterm elections to fund high-priority congressional campaigns.

As Tesla sales slump and Ford cuts back on EV workforce, Buttigieg doubles down on ‘Economically Smart Play’

By IAN HANCHETT | Breitbart On Tuesday’s broadcast of the Fox News Channel’s “America Reports,” Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg stated that “the automotive sector is moving towards EVs” and China pushed for an advantage in the EV market “because that’s the economically smart play” but “we can’t just sit back and let this happen on its own pace” because there’s a competition between the U.S. and China. Co-host John Roberts asked, “Tesla sales fell 8.5% the first quarter of this year, Ford, this week, is laying off two-thirds of its workforce at the F-150 electric Lightning plant, it’s also scaling back a battery production facility because of sagging sales. EV sales are nowhere near what this president wanted or expected. Yet, the administration continues to shove them down c...

In Colorado’s 3rd District, seat Boebert is leaving moves from ’tilt’ to ‘lean’ Republican

By Nathan L. Gonzales | Roll Call Nearly seven months before Election Day, the fight for the House majority is taking shape with a dozen rating changes in a dozen races. While eight of the changes made by Inside Elections benefit Democrats, some of those are on the outskirts of the battlefield, and Republicans are in a better position to control the House next year.  Overall, 72 races are rated as competitive by Inside Elections. That’s a slightly larger House battlefield compared with this point in 2022 (65 seats), 2020 (66 seats) and 2018 (69 seats) but dramatically larger than the end of March 2016, when just 34 House seats were rated as competitive.  There’s unintentional symmetry at the core of the battlefield, where Republicans currently represent 15 seat...

Giordano: America’s woke education is fueling the mental health crisis

By Nicholas Giordano | FOX News According to a new Gallup poll, "happiness" is plummeting in America, adding to the mounting evidence that the U.S. has a mental health crisis on its hands. It is particularly alarming that these bleak findings include children, teens and young adults – demographics that have traditionally enjoyed relatively carefree lives and positive outlooks as they face a lifetime of promises.  But the data is sobering: suicide ranks as the second leading cause of death among children ages 10-14 and young adults ages 20-34. Furthermore, 55% of young adults under the age of 30 suffer from anxiety, and 47% are depressed and/or hopeless. Sadly, these statistics do not surprise me.  As a college professor, not only h...
