Judge Davis got re-elected! Problem is....she can't take the bench until 2029! Rob Wolchek has the update 2026

President Donald Trump questioned the results of the midterm elections in a jaw-dropping social media post, less than a week after he, his preferred candidates, and GOP control of Congress were smacked down in a brutal rout. Taking to Truth Social on Monday morning, the president said: “Does anybody really believe that this ‘Election’ was honest. How could the Polls be so wrong??? Some early voting “dumps” were so large that it was impossible to win, no matter how many people went to vote.” He added: “It’s all about the machines, which are far more important than the voter!” The...

Two Spokane County sheriff's deputies were killed in what began as a domestic violence call and turned into a deadly rescue attempt. Authorities say deputies Mason Acheson and Parker Perry were shot Tuesday as they tried to enter a home near Spangle, Washington, after a woman reported she'd been shot and that others might still be inside, per Fox News. SWAT teams later sent in a drone and found the suspected gunman, 37-year-old Ryan Larsen, dead of an apparent self-inflicted gunshot, along with the bodies of his mother and sister, 72-year-old Suzanne Larsen and 45-year-old Rebecca Larsen.Acheson died shortly after...

What are these ills that are laid at the door of capitalism? Just a short list includes: business monopolies that jack up prices and prey on captive consumers; laws favoring vested industry interests passed through lobbying, often in backroom insider deals; barriers to entry to squelch small competitors; fatcat executives without accountability to shareholders and multi-million-dollar payouts; systemic crises created by financial or corporate scandals; and the list goes on… But none of these ills is an attribute of capitalism – in fact, in a truly capitalistic system every one of these ills would disappear. These ills are the outcome...

A ProPublica investigation is casting a suspicious eye on a lucrative government contract awarded to a small company to monitor Ebola in Africa. The $40 million contract to XpresTest stands out for two reasons, according to the story: The company has zero experience working in Africa, and President Trump's two eldest sons invested in the firm just months before the contract was awarded. XpresTest, a biosecurity subsidiary of airport spa operator XWELL, has experience monitoring COVID-19 at airports but no track record working with Ebola or in Africa. Even the company's CEO is leery of the work in the Democratic...

Another massive migrant caravan busted through the Mexican border en route to the United States on Friday after the Democrats swept the midterm elections. At least 800 migrants busted through Mexico, optimistic after the Democrats took control of the House and the Senate. The latest migrant caravan is mainly comprised of Hondurans. Video posted to social media shows the migrants walking over the Rodolfo Robles International Bridge from Guatemala into Ciudad Hidalgo Chiapas on Friday night. Democrats also seized control of the Texas governorship and state House – Governor Abbott was ousted by open-borders zealot Gina Hinojosa.

A car crashed near the White House on Monday morning, and the driver was detained after a physical confrontation with Secret Service officers and National Guard troops, according to reporters at the scene. A silver sedan drove onto the paved area at the north end of Lafayette Square, directly across from the White House, and struck a sign post, according to video circulating online. White smoke could be seen rising from the car. The Secret Service ordered members of the White House press corps indoors at about 10 a.m. local time. President Donald Trump was at the White House at...

Both Redeemed in Christ — Yet Two Different Last Days Perspectives on His Appearing The Watchful Believer — Living in the Light of His Coming (1 Thessalonians 5:1–8; Titus 2:13).

Yet his hope...

Hakeem Jeffries is learning the hard way that the Democratic Socialists of America are not interested in a big tent. They don't even want him IN their tent. Womp womp womp. After DSA-aligned candidates swept several New York primaries earlier this year, their victory celebration included a pointed message aimed squarely at the House Democrat leader. When Jeffries’ face appeared on screen, the crowd broke into chants of “You’re next!” In a new CNN interview, Jeffries addressed the moment. He observed that the group doing the chanting appeared strikingly homogeneous, a detail others in the room had also noticed. This...

A now-viral video appears to show several white University of Mississippi coeds making racist sounds outside an apartment shared by three black students, sparking online fury and a school probe. The ring-doorbell-camera footage shared on TikTok by Ole Miss student Jakiyra Metcalf captured the female offenders walking past her apartment and pausing to make monkey noises Friday, the woman said. The clip, time-stamped Nov. 6, 2026, at approximately 8:37 p.m., shows two women walking up to the door, with the first beating her chest and making monkey noises, while the second makes the same sound toward the camera. A third...

It’s strange how small gestures can sometimes echo events taking place on much larger stages. It may well be the same impulse acting simultaneously at the human level and on the global. Last week an elderly man slapped a young man scarcely out of boyhood across the face in public for no rational reason. It did not occur during an argument; no such argument took place. Rather, the old man was responding to reasoned statements with an unhinged tirade totally at odds with the circumstances. On election day in Laconia, New Hampshire, 70-year-old Steven Redic confronted Rainer Vesey, an...

A New Jersey girls' soccer coach has been suspended for a playoff game for celebrating a milestone victory with a champagne bottle. Paul VI coach Karen Anderson was seen on video celebrating her 100th career win, a 2-0 win over Notre Dame in the South Jersey, Non-Public A quarterfinals, by what appeared to be popping the bottle on school property after the game. Anderson told NJ.com that she did not drink from the bottle, which was bought and given by parents of members on the team. Anderson did not say whether the bottle had alcohol in it. The New Jersey...

A gunman suspected of killing six people in central Krakow and his parents and sister at their home has died in hospital, Polish police say. The 24-year-old was injured after opening fire in central Krakow, the second largest city in Poland, on Saturday, and died early on Monday morning, police said. Armed officers raced to the scene and engaged in a gunfight with the suspect, who was shot within three minutes of the attack beginning, preventing a further massacre, officials said. Officials initially reported the gunman had apparently been inspired by "far-right ideologies", but have since said they are still...

President Trump defended Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang as an “honorable guy” after his multi-trillion-dollar AI company began investigating his relationship with a suspected Chinese spy.Huang’s mistress, Alice Huang — no relation — was allegedly recruited by China’s Ministry of State Security (MSS), according to a months-old secret memo from the State Department. However, Huang has remained an influential figure in the president’s orbit influencing US AI policy. “He’s done an amazing job for our country,” the president told reporters Sunday night, calling the billionaire tech boss an “honorable guy” and a “fine person.” ”I haven’t heard that he’s done anything...

Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s administration will be forced to hand ICE the names and birthdays of certain residents of a city-run Bronx homeless shelter, according to a bombshell federal ruling. US District Judge Lewis Kaplan ruled Friday that the city must comply with a subpoena from federal immigration officials to provide identifying information for some male residents at the Bruckner shelter in Mott Haven. “The City has not shown that producing this list would be unduly burdensome,” Kaplan wrote in the ruling after months of back and forth between the city and the feds. ICE claims the residents’ names, birthdays, and...

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani could be gearing up to be the kingmaker for the 2028 election after progressive candidates made gains across the country in last week's midterms, reports suggest. Mamdani himself can't run for president because he's not a "natural born citizen,” as required by Article II of the Constitution. But he could help decide how the Democrats will be led into 2028. Speaking to Axios, insiders have revealed that he is meeting with union leaders trying to get a progressive candidate to run for the White House. Progressives achieved breakthrough victories in Senate races in Michigan...

First came the public suggestion that the Kraków gunman was fascinated by far-right ideologies. Then came explanations about preliminary theories and the need for further verification. Remarks made by Polish Interior Minister Marcin Kierwiński just hours after the deadly attack in Kraków quickly made international headlines. Meanwhile, material circulating online has raised questions about the perpetrator’s actual political sympathies, with some reports pointing in a very different ideological direction. One fundamental question remains: what evidence prompted the minister to associate the attacker with the far right so early in the investigation? (snip) His remarks quickly spread through domestic and international...

I would like to say a few more words about the midterms and the fight ahead. I really do understand the despair eating away at American patriots who are heartbroken to see Islamism, communism, and general lawlessness take over the country. As I’m sure most of you did, I suffered after the 2020 election. Perhaps the issue that bothered me most six years ago was how the public messaging “narrative” painted that election as a rejection of President Trump’s “Make America Great Again” policies, including his successful border enforcement and dedication to the resurrection of manufacturing in the United States....
