The Trump stunt was genius, not because he pretended to work at McDonald’s but because of how well he interacted with everyone. Harris has issues with the truth, public speaking, getting along with others, plagiarism, and her resume. The 2019 campaign disaster mention of a job at McDonald’s was transported to the abbreviated 2024 campaign ... Read more

Yes, I saw the Julie Smith by-line and clicked anyway, because the headline referenced Rep. Scott Wallace, whom I voted for.

After months of activism and several weeks of reporting, the problem of properly securing completed ballots appeared to make some progress.

Cornerstone has released their list of rep candidate endorsements, which include some non incumbents and some former reps. On their endorsement list are 44 enemies of 91A and here they are: I would like all Cornerstoners, meaning both members and supporters alike, to think about something for a moment.
