Donald Trump added another victory Tuesday night in the Beehive State after voting difficulties delayed reporting of the outcome. Utah will deliver all of its 40 delegates to Trump in a resounding caucus victory for the former president in a state where he did not win the primary in 2016. Utah gives all its delegates to a candidate exceeding 50 percent of the vote. The results were delayed by a comedy of voting system errors, including an overwhelmed website the state party attributed to turnout that exceeded expectations. The Associated Press did not call the race for Trump until 3:59...

Pennsylvania Democrats won a trio of state House special elections Tuesday night, handing them a clear majority. The victories give Democrats the upper hand in a chamber that has seesawed in control since the November elections, resulting in a bipartisan "independent" speaker arrangement that quickly went sour. But with Tuesday's wins, the Democratic Party now is in a stronger position to block GOP-led initiatives, including a potential anti-abortion ballot measure. Democrats won in three districts, according to projections by The Associated Press: 32nd District: Democrat Joe McAndrew defeated Republican Clay Walker. The seat was left vacant after the death in...

New York City Mayor Eric Adams (D) is hopeful that Rep. Lee Zeldin (R) will beat Democrat Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) on Tuesday so that he can advance his initiatives on crime and public safety, the New York Post reported. Although Adams has publicly endorsed and campaigned for Gov. Hochul, three anonymous sources who allegedly have longtime ties to Adams and the New York City Council told the Post that Adams would see more of an opportunity to address crime within New York City if Zeldin were elected governor on Tuesday.

The Virginia Military Institute is celebrating the 25th anniversary of the presence of women at the nation’s oldest state military college with an appearance by Kimberly Dark: a fat rights activist and author of lesbian fanfic who wants to “reimagine masculinity”.“Why couldn’t we see that America has been racist forever, sexist forever?” Dark ranted in a post titled, “For those who do not want a Trump presidency — this is what we will do now.”Under Superintendent Cedric Wins, this is what the Virginia Military Institute has become.“How have you benefited from adherence to your gender role?” a VMI diversity training...

Former President Donald Trump told Breitbart News exclusively that conservative victories in Brazil, Italy, Sweden, Hungary, and more are proof that the “great movement” he leads is spreading worldwide. “The whole thing is a great movement that’s taken place and now it’s happening all over the world,” Trump said in a phone interview on Tuesday. “It’s a very simple movement: Give us borders, give us safe streets, we don’t want crime, give us good education, give us dignity and give us respect as a nation. It’s not complicated.”

A Democratic New York state Senate candidate backed by Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., celebrated her primary election victory by declaring "socialism wins." Kristen Gonzalez, a tech worker whose campaign for the New York state Senate was backed by the Democratic Socialists of America and left-wing lawmakers including Ocasio-Cortez, made the declaration to cheering supporters on Tuesday after winning her primary election. "I know we’re saving the speeches for a little later, but today we really proved that socialism wins!" Gonzalez said as her supporters cheered.

Democrats, months away from the midterm election where the GOP is favored to take back the House, are looking to pass bills to show they have been able to do something productive for the country while having total control of Washington, DC, as Republicans also look to put them on the record opposing hard-line bills. As Politico pointed out, the Democrats have used this past week to pass legislation on a wide range of areas by playing “whack-a-mole” with the multiple national crises, such as a shortage of baby formula, skyrocketing inflation, and high gas prices, so they can buff...

Rep. Tim Ryan won Ohio’s Democratic Senate primary on Tuesday, advancing to what will be one of the most closely watched general election battles of the midterms. The Associated Press called the race at 7:56 p.m. ET. Ryan defeated fellow Democrats Morgan Harper, Traci Johnson and LaShondra Tinsley.

A federal appeals court, which previously sided with the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) amid Gov. Ron DeSantis’s (R-FL) battle against the federal health agency over the vaccination rules it is imposing on the cruise industry, reversed its decision, ultimately siding with the state over the CDC’s No-Sail Orders.On Friday, Florida “filed an Emergency Application to Vacate the Eleventh Circuit’s Stay on the Preliminary Injunction.” That same day, the Eleventh Circuit reversed its earlier decision, allowing the cruise industry to resume operations without adhering to the CDC’s restrictions, including what effectively amounts to vaccine passports, which are illegal...

  The liberal stronghold of Pima County, Arizona, published the results of 28,344 more ballots just after 8 p.m. — and President Donald Trump took them by 5.1%! The liberal media has been teasing a huge win in Pima County as a large part of their projection of Joe Biden taking the state. Of the 28,344 ballots — 13,045 (46%) were for Biden and 14,484 (51.1%) were for President Donald Trump.The president now tails Biden by only 56,547 votes in the state. There are still approximately 330,000 votes that need to be counted.Arizona was called early for Joe Biden by...

The Early vote count in Florida always favors the democrats. Not today. The late vote in Florida always favors the Republicans and that is still true. Trump will win Florida by a good margin.

IMHO, the most damage inflicted on Biden during the debate was self inflicted. He does not support Medicare for All, and he does not support the New Green Deal. Those two issues will drive away the Bernie Bros. Waiting on the news stories to start creeping out about the loonies leaving the Biden camp.

Democratic Gov. John Bel Edwards will win a second term as Louisiana governor, defeating his Republican opponent Eddie Rispone. Going into Saturday’s runoff election, surveys conducted by pollsters showed the two virtually tied, with few undecideds and neither candidate making significant inroads into the other’s base. Analysts had predicted the race would come down to who got their supporters to the polls. Urban ministers, organized labor and African-American politicians worked for the 53-year-old Edwards, who is the only Democratic governor in the Deep South. Rispone, a 70-year-old businessman making his first run for public office, had President Donald Trump at...

Our unofficial polling shows senate candidate Roy Moore is sweeping the election in Alabama by a large margin. The president of ORobert Herringne America News would like to congratulate Moore on the fine campaign he and his wife have run. Speaking with campaign representatives, we’re being told there are strong signs the majority of voters have come out in support of the judge. Reports show at least 64% of voters are fiercely opposed to many of Doug Jones’ key platform issues. Campaign officials say the latest results show Moore up by at least eight points over his opponent. OAN would...

Many are still seeking to understand this unpredictable president—what he’s accomplished, how he’s failed, and the hard truths both sides refuse to admit. It seems no American is neutral on Donald Trump. The chasm dividing liberals and conservatives grows wider with every tweet and new investigation, only reinforced by partisan media.The public square has been reduced to a shouting match. From music artists to business leaders, many on the Left mandate strict resistance to the Trump presidency. Meanwhile, some on the Right use war imagery to encourage firm loyalty over any criticism of the administration. Yet many are still seeking...

We’re looking at a possible government shutdown next Saturday, and that’s got some conservatives nervous. They shouldn’t be. Admittedly, past government shutdowns — or threats of shutdowns — have worked against conservatives. With Trump, however, it would likely be a different story.... even a partial shutdown plays precisely into the Trump agenda and his campaign promises of draining the swamp. Trump’s base, as well as “swing voters” who are fed up with out of control spending, would, of course, be cheered by such a move. Moreover, such a shutdown plays into Trump’s hands by giving him every excuse to slash...
