Bet you didn't hear about that. Kind of changes things, doesn't it? You heard endlessly about the "racist" Nicholas Sandmann. You heard endlessly about the "racist" Kyle Rittenhouse. CNN and MSNBC had them convicted and were ready to execute them on their own. Neither was found guilty of anything, but both were libeled and slandered. You know who Darrell Brooks is? Probably not. He was the guy who intentionally ran over white people in Waukesha, Wisconsin, killing five. He was a racist who hated white people. Because he was a black racist, the story was disappeared from the left-wing media...

Should we provide weapons? 72% say yes. That’s the...

Former President Trump has pulled his endorsement of Rep. Mo Brooks in this year's Alabama Senate primary, slamming the Republican as "woke" and disloyal to him for doubting his claims about the 2020 presidential election.

And so you can make the argument we shouldn’t be...
