Nothing underlines the partisan nature of PBS right now than The Atlantic magazine being allowed to take over the long-running "Washington Week" program in August of 2023. This was not a hostile takeover but a deeper branding of what PBS is -- taxpayer-funded mangle-MAGA TV.

Four years ago, The Atlantic tried to take Donald Trump down with ...Read more

A few days before last week's election, Bernie Sanders issued a dire warning to voters: "If Donald Trump is elected, the struggle against climate change is over."

He had that right.

Climate change fanaticism was effectively on the ballot last week. The green energy agenda was decisively defeated.

It turns out that the tens of millions of ...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- Had she won, Vice President Kamala Harris would have broken two barriers at once -- becoming the first woman and the first Indian American to be elected president.

And so, naturally, when the Democrat was defeated, Republicans were quick to deliver last rites to what they call "identity politics."

Not so fast. This election was ...Read more

Many Democrats have decided that Donald Trump won because some Hispanic and black voters are racist sexists. If only I were joking.

Trump's resounding victory was driven by a surge of support from minority voters. According to AP VoteCast, 42% of Latino voters and 16% of African American voters backed Trump. That was a marked increase from 2020...Read more

PITTSBURGH -- Walking out of the Allegheny County Republican election night event at a local luxury hotel, the young men waiting to valet my car got into a discussion with me about the just-announced election results.

All four men were in their 30s. Two were white, one was Black and the other Hispanic. As I traditionally do, I asked them how ...Read more

I never imagined I would think, let alone write, that the Democratic Party's victory in 2020 was a blessing. But for those of us -- meaning, it is now clear, a majority of us -- who regard the Left as an entirely destructive force in America as it is everywhere else in the world, 2020 may well have turned out to be a blessing.

Why?

For two ...Read more

"How dare you say that" isn't a persuasive political argument.

Yet the side that has believed it can bully its way to victory on cultural issues by policing the debate in its favor continues to act as if it is one, even after getting soundly beaten in the election.

The Left's game has been to insist that everyone adopt its tendentious ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- Things got a little testy in the White House briefing room Thursday. It was the first daily briefing since Vice President Kamala Harris lost the presidential election, and reporters wanted to know if President Joe Biden takes responsibility for his starring role in Donald Trump's big win on Nov. 5.

The short answer: No.

Let's ...Read more

OK, first things first. I have to take a victory lap. Muhammad Ali said, "It's not bragging if you can back it up." I can back it up.

I was the only TV host in America to stick his neck on the line and boldly predict a Trump electoral landslide AND a popular vote victory.

I also promised this election would be a repeat of Reagan-Carter in 1980...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- Latinos are the pinata of the 2024 presidential election. So what else is new?

I didn't know who was going to win the 2024 presidential election, which seemed too close to call. But I knew two things for sure: Win or lose, Donald Trump was going get at least 40% of the Latino vote. And Latinos were going to get pummeled, ...Read more

In a just world, Donald Trump would have won the Nobel Peace Prize for securing the historic Abraham Accords peace agreements of 2020. So too, in a just world, would A-list Hollywood studios now be bidding for the rights to produce the film adaptation of the single greatest comeback story in American history: Donald Trump, the once and future ...Read more

If the 2024 presidential contest proved anything, it's that the mass media no longer drive the national conversation. They can no longer stoke fear and outrage in average voters. They can no longer prop up terrible candidates. And, like him or not, President-elect Donald Trump's success with black, Hispanic and Jewish voters, if exit polls are ...Read more

On the night of the election, a member of the Trump team called me about an hour after polls had begun to close to tell me they saw signs of a win. A few hours later, a friend close to the Harris team called to tell me senior members of the campaign had begun advising senior Democrats they saw no path forward for Kamala Harris. A few hours ...Read more

There was one supervillain in the story of the 2024 campaign that almost surpassed Donald Trump -- Elon Musk.

From the minute he bought Twitter in 2022, the leftists who aspire to complete messaging control were furious. They knew their 2020 jig was up, that they couldn't just suppress damaging stories like the Hunter Biden laptop. Reporters ...Read more

"It isn't a hard choice," we said. On one side was a candidate who would abide by the Constitution and laws of the United States and accept the outcome of elections. On the other was a candidate refusing to accept a 2024 defeat even as memories of his attempted coup in 2020 remain fresh; vowing to punish the "enemy within"; and promising that ...Read more

Here are some observations on what you didn't hear on election night. Most networks' focus was, quite properly, on whether former President Donald Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris would carry enough of the 93 electoral votes of the seven target states -- Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin -- to ...Read more

It turns out that everyone underestimated how a proposal for mass deportations could bring Americans together.

Donald Trump assembled the biggest, most diverse GOP coalition in decades while running further to the right on immigration, crime and the culture than perhaps any major-party presidential candidate in U.S. history.

Trump inveighed ...Read more

What if you were allowed to vote only because it didn't make a difference? What if no matter how you voted, the elites always got their way? What if the concept of one person/one vote was just a fiction created by the government to induce your compliance?

What if democracy as it has come to exist in America today is dangerous to personal ...Read more
