My friend Data Republican this week has been publishing damning information all this week; evidence that a shadowy consortium of Leftist organizations has been meeting online and in person, to discuss their plans for literally overthrowing the US Government after the upcoming midterm elections in America. And today, her latest "drop" of documents and video …
Just recently, the Everett, Washington School District lost a lawsuit brought by a Christian group, alleging that it denied students their religious liberty in an egregious way.

The Queen Mary 2 gets underway late in the afternoon, just after our Mark Steyn group comes together for a taping of Mark’s regular show.

We need to pay close attention to their battle plan. Because it IS a Battle! WE, the American People are the ENEMY. Chuck Schumer already told you the fucking ending. “We are already preparing, and we will mount lawsuit after lawsuit at every stage of the process. Mark my words.” The 2026 midterms have not …
Anyone familiar with Seattle is aware that the Chinatown area on the southern end of downtown is an open-air drug market, where junkies and dealers clog the sidewalks, along with numerous homeless tents and other temporary structures.
