Doing the math on the cost of mail-in voting after 25 years

By Capt. Seth Keshel | Commentary, Captain K's Corner, Substack A statistical guide to the impacts of mail-in voting and why Democrats will make it their hill to die on. It appears, based on his recent statements, that President Trump is likely to take executive action targeting mail-in ballots and perhaps other deficiencies and disenfranchising items present in the American system of elections. As a former intelligence officer, my mind moves immediately to thinking like how the enemy thinks, and in this case, those enemies will be representatives of states that run quasi-elections tainted by mail-in balloting, which is always accompanied by ballot harvesting (whether legal or not), pushed out to an ever-expanding list of registrations polluted by Automatic Voter Registration. As ...

When Violence Targets Conservatives, the Media Looks Away

By C. J. Garbo | Guest Commentary, Rocky Mountain Voice The nation is reeling after the tragic shooting at a Minneapolis Catholic school. Two children are dead, more than a dozen are injured, and the community is shattered. Investigators have identified the shooter as Robin M. Westman, and disturbing evidence has already surfaced: weapons scrawled with political messages, including “Kill Donald Trump.” This fact should dominate headlines. Yet it will not. The corporate press will bury it, sanitize it, or frame it around mental illness and gun control. What they will not do is admit what the evidence shows: a politically motivated act of violence targeting conservatives. Why? Because the media knows the truth - that the Left has incubated more political violence than the Righ...

Fired for telling the truth: Whistleblower reveals driver’s license racket in Kentucky

New York Post A driver’s licensing office in Kentucky is in hot water after a whistleblower revealed a staggering inside scheme to issue drivers licenses and permits to illegal immigrants without them taking a test or going through a Homeland Security background check.According to a whistleblower complaint filed in April, two employees at one of the offices allegedly pocketed cash from undocumented drivers in exchange for a license by outfitting them with fake documents like birth certificates and social security cards. The scheme only started to unravel when a clerk at the center, Melissa Moorman, was approached by one of the employees to join in on the quote on quote “business venture,” which was charging undocumented drivers $200 a pop.

CNN’s Harry Enten compares Democrats to Cracker Barrel flop as GOP surges in swing states

By Nick Givas | Commentary, The Western Journal CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten exposed how badly Democrats are doing in vital swing states on Monday, while lamenting the collapse of their brand, as key voters continue flocking to the Republican Party. Enten initially cited the “Cracker Barrel” rebranding nightmare, which saw the company change their classic logo by removing the “Old Timer” mascot known as Uncle Herschel. The restaurant had a change of heart Tuesday, following pressure from the public and President Donald Trump. Yet that didn’t stop Enten from using the analogy. “The Democratic brand right now has about the appeal with the American voter, as the Cracker Barrel rebrand has with the American consumers,” he said. “Bad, bad, bad! What are you doin’? ...

US fighter jets scrambled as Russia tests Alaskan skies for 4th time in a week

By Stephen Sorace | Fox News NORAD deployed E-3 Sentry, two F-16s and KC-135 tanker to track IL-20 COOT reconnaissance aircraft U.S. military fighter jets were scrambled on Tuesday to track a Russian spy plane detected flying near Alaska, the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) said. It was the fourth time in less than a week that the military command has detected and tracked a Russian IL-20 COOT, a Cold War-era reconnaissance aircraft, in the Alaskan Air Defense Identification Zone (ADIZ), a stretch of international airspace that requires the ready identification of all aircraft in the interest of national security, according to NORAD. The same type of Russian aircraft flew over the region on Aug. 20, Aug. 21 and Aug. 24, the military command s...

When gun rights depend on the judge: New study reveals disparities in DVPO cases

By Cory Gaines | Colorado Accountability Project Disparities in court orders for DVPO's Federal law prohibits the possession or purchase of firearms for certain people who have domestic violence protection orders (DVPO). Some states go further and require anyone who is subject to such an order to relinquish their firearms for the duration of the order. The study linked first below takes a look at the results of a Washington State law (which is one of the states which requires a respondent in a DVPO case to relinquish their firearms) and compares the outcomes of court cases to race. Quoting the abstract: "Historically, U.S. laws and institutions have privileged White men with firearm access over minoritized individuals, but little is known about whether racial disparities...

NYT smears Riley Gaines and XX-XY Athletics while ignoring fairness in women’s sports

By Jennifer Sey | Commentary, Sey Everything Substack It is petty and biased from the lede. And it just gets worse throughout. Yesterday there was a lot going on in the news so you may have missed the long form article about Riley Gaines in The New York Times. Read it if you must, but only to stay motivated to continue the fight for biological reality. It’s a 4000 word takedown of Gaines and the entire movement to protect women’s sports. It is so dishonest and petty. Look, we’re not asking for biased treatment in our direction. How about straight up the middle? You know, reporting? But that seems to be beyond Ruth Graham’s capability. I’ll admit, it annoys me because I’m in it. And I recorded the interview so I know what I said and she leaves out anything I said tha...

Fitness Goes Feral As Animal-Style Workouts Go Viral

By Erica Tempesta | The New York Post It’s now hot to trot. A rising fitness trend has fans channeling their inner animal by walking, running and even jumping on all fours, a form of movement known as “quadrobics.” The unconventional style of exercise is gaining traction on social media, where devotees are showing off their bear crawls and cat leaps — often while wearing furry masks and tails. TikToker Soleil (@wild.soleil), who asked to remain anonymous, started doing quadrobics last year after learning about therians, a group of people who identify as nonhuman animals — not to be confused with furries, who both engage with and dress up as anthropomorphic animals. It’s a popular activity within the subculture, for obvious reasons, but the practice is not exclusive to theria...

Transgender Shooter Expressed Regret Over Transition Before Attacking School

By Diana Nerozzi and Patrick Reilly | The New York Post Transgender mass shooter Robin Westman confessed that he “was tired of being trans” and wished he “never brain-washed” himself in a manifesto posted online before he slaughtered two children and wounded dozens more at a Minneapolis church. In a twisted handwritten journal he shared on YouTube before the massacre — much of which is encrypted in a homespun code of Russian Cyrillic script and English words — Westman groaned about his long hair and his decision to transition. “I only keep [the long hair] because it is pretty much my last shred of being trans. I am tired of being trans, I wish I never brain-washed myself,” he wrote, according to a translation by The Post. Robin Westman opened fire on the Annunciation Catholic C...
