Re: Demos Buying Biggest Election Runoff Prize of 2026

“Not long ago, Republicans were being asked if we were ‘tired of winning.’ Trump messed up his signature issue — immigration — by picking a clown to run it. Health insurance is a complete mess. Meaningless luxuries like food and housing aren’t affordable. Trump needs to get on message.” —Oklahoma

“So out-of-state Democrats are trying to buy another election. Isn’t it about time that a statewide election should only receive funds for candidates from that state’s voters? This buying of elections by elites in Marxist-controlled states is unfair to the locals who vote.” —California

“This was a great analysis on the Democrat strategy in this election. Spot on!” —Georgia

Re: Ballerina Farm Is in the Feminist Crosshairs Once Again

“My dad came from a family of nine children. They had responsibility and duties to each other and to the nation. Growing up, I saw that continuity to each other, to their parents, and to us, the grandchildren. My aunts and uncles served our country. Those who eschew the sacrifices of parenthood need to just be quiet.” —Montana

“As time goes on, I am less and less impressed with social media. The feminist movement was about giving women the approval to pursue their dreams. The judging and need to express opinions is wrong on so many levels. I am appalled at the need to put someone down because they want to follow a dream. That dream doesn’t have to be my dream, but we all have the right to make our own life choices without criticism from those who would not make the same choices.” —Wisconsin

“When I was toddler, one of my babysitters was a widow who had raised 10 children. Someone asked her, ‘How did you find time for all of them?’ She replied with a smile, ‘One child takes up all of your time, so the rest can’t possibly take more.’ She no doubt added that her older children had plenty of opportunity for supervised experience in caring for babies and toddlers, which helped them raise their own children. I still remember Mrs. Sturm’s cookies!” —Minnesota

Re: The Schoolhouse Gate Still Silences Student Speech

“As long as leftists are in charge of state and local school boards and the hiring of superintendents, principals and teachers, education will continue to be supplanted by indoctrination. The solution is simple: stop electing leftist Democrats!” —Kentucky

Re: The Left’s $4.4T Tax Hike

“There are several nations that will gladly take in billionaire refugees fleeing covetous politicians. Senator Bernie Sanders and his allies threaten to break the constitutional contract; if they can attack the rights of the very wealthy, they will continue to dissipate the people’s resources by going after the next tier until the nation is as impoverished as the Soviet Union was in its last days. This folly must be firmly rejected.” —Minnesota

Re: Spanberger v. American Liberty

“Abigail Spanberger deserves congratulations for being a highly skilled liar. She professes to be one thing and then turns on the people who voted her in immediately — all thanks to her deception and all those DC spillover voters in northern Virginia.” —New Hampshire

Re: Noem Deported From DHS

“When elected officials are new, they still have the energy and enthusiasm to achieve the important goals that motivated them to serve the people. The longer they stay, the more they are beholden to party leaders and the less truly representative they become. President Donald Trump is still a new guy as far as politicians go, but I do enjoy the work he is accomplishing. I think there is a lot of wisdom in term limits for any elected person. I remember when Senator Patty Murray first ran for office and said she would never stay for more than two terms.” —Washington

Re: Jackson, Obama, Biden, and the Phony Call to Unity

“We are not buying any of your rhetoric, Barack Obama, the divider-in-chief. We all got along pretty well before you showed up.” —South Carolina

Re: Britain: A U.S. Ally in Name Only?

“If we put the Democrats back in power, I fear we will follow Britain down the path it has taken, and Obama will have succeeded in carrying out his stated objective of ‘fundamentally transforming the United States of America.’” —South Carolina

Re: Iran — Operation Epic Decapitation

“Remember the people and leaders we’re dealing with. Religion married to tyranny births deranged children.” —Louisiana

Re: The Unnecessary Oil Panic

“The question to me is obvious: Why don’t we build refineries, especially ones that can process our light, sweet crude oil? It’s been a half-century since the last one was built! Are any states willing to locate a refinery there? Heck, federal incentives could pave the way. Washington State has a nuclear waste facility — is a refinery more despised than that?” —Arizona

Re: The Giant-Killer Strikes Again

“This is what I have been trying to get across to people. Iran and the ayatollahs started this war when they took American citizens hostage in 1979. What is going on in the world is more important than the end of your nose. Learn to look past it and grow up and be an adult.” —Oregon
