While the left-wing media takes delight in a two-week old poll, the underlying numbers demonstrate more cause for concern than assurances for Northam.
Not a small endorsement today from the nation’s largest Second Amendment defender.
Progressive Democrats are tired of being disrespected by a Northam campaign that can’t seem to find its footing.
If politics had a TKO? Miller put on a clinic against CNN’s Jim Acosta, whose moral preening was on full display during this exchange.
Effectively, Acosta — supposedly a journalist and not a columnist — engaged in a tit-for-tat with White House aide Stephen Miller regarding the proposed immigration bill.
Let’s leave aside for a second who is right and who is wrong in this exchange. The difference is here: Acosta hijacked the exchange in order to score political points in an effort to make himself the story, and Miller adroitly (and to his credit) refused to fall into the trap of taking the hit as others at the podium during the Trump administration have done.
Miller fought his way out of the ambush, just like you’re supposed to do.
The entire six minute exchange is worth your time. Regardless as to where you stand on immigration policy or the particulars of this bill (we have our reservations), Acosta’s verbal sparring with Miller was the sort of exchange one expects from a journalist who is there to create the news, not report it.
It is the precise reason why Americans don’t trust the mainstream media, and despite reservations about the Trump presidency, have no stomach for returning to the media-driven Obama-era fawning over every progressive policy as a positive good.
Such are the times, folks.
Hard up for cash and hitting the panic button, Northam decides to lap up the blood money from Planned Parenthood — $3 million in fact.
Pipeline opponents are having a hard time getting a hearing. That’s because the sharp pencils over within Northam’s campaign have calculated they don’t need the environmentalist left.
The story the media is finally covering in a but-whaddabout-Stewart sort of way can no longer be ignored.
The proposed 600-mile underground Atlantic Coast Pipeline (ACP) is an interstate natural gas transmission pipeline that would serve multiple public utilities and their growing energy needs in Virginia and North Carolina.
For those interested in learning more about the project, check out the fact sheet over at Dominion Energy or the Atlantic Coast Pipeline project page. For all the Frequently Asked Questions — including whether the energy will be shipped overseas (fun fact: it will not) — click here for all the facts.
More to the point, there’s a reason why the project enjoys broad bi-partisan support from the political center of Virginia. Northam chose wisely by backing the project, even if his more extremist supporters would rather condemn 1 in 8 Virginians to energy poverty rather than see facts straight on.
The Democrats’ ten-year running rift with the progressive left remains a violent death struggle as to which faction will remain dominant.
Virginia House Democrats are looking like the lame horse on the outside of the track stumbling into the gate — never mind getting out of it.
