The torch of human freedom is burning brightly heading into November. Republican grassroots are the reason why — and we have chosen our candidates very well indeed. This is not a seat where Republicans should be doing well. Yet Segura’s campaign is doing two things needed for victory: (1) reinventing the Republican coalition to embrace […]
Biden Approval Ratings Stagnant at 40%
Let’s gather around and talk about how terrible President Joe Biden’s approval ratings are — and how they are absolutely crushing Virginia Democrats in key races right now: That’s 40% approval ratings, folks.

Voyeurism Isn’t Good for the Soul (or Politics)
The scandal of the week involving Susanna Gibson is an indictment of our politics. Shame on us all for participating in it. HAMLET Get thee ⟨to⟩ a nunnery. Why wouldst thou be a breeder of sinners? I am myself indifferent honest, but yet I could accuse me of such things that it were better my mother had not borne me: I am very proud, revengeful, ambitious, with more offenses at my beck than I have thoughts to put them in, imagination to give them shape, or time to act them in.
