We’ve got a congressional map that reflects our state’s divided but competitive nature. It’s not perfect, but it’s fair. And until Democrats learn to compete in more places with stronger candidates, no amount of legal trickery is going to deliver the results they want.
House Republicans need to look at their counterparts at the state level and get federal expenditures under control with permanent spending reductions.
If you’re going to take over a party, you’ve got to make the case that you can deliver something better. Has Turning Point delivered?

The Republican Party is a prize worth having. Question is how much of the party will be left standing in the crossfire this weekend at state convention between these warring factions.
Like moles, these soldiers of the progressive order dig far down into deep state hideaways, where they can work their mischief for years and years, presidential administration in and presidential administration out.
Donald Trump is reportedly frustrated and surprised that his self-acclaimed deal-making prowess hasn’t worked to bring peace in Gaza and Ukraine. He shouldn’t be surprised. He violated nearly every principle of negotiations that is used in business all day, every day.
What an ugly incident at high school sports event tells about current state of the nation.
