Prager: Why Americans mistrust election results more than the citizens of any other democracy

By Dennis Prager | TownHall.com Last week, 27 European nations voted for their representatives in the European Parliament. If you were aware of this, did you happen to notice that there were no allegations of cheating in any European country? If you are on the left, you might respond that there were no such allegations because the right did better than the left, and it's the right that makes these allegations. But that response has little merit. For one thing, there were no such allegations, let alone demonstrations, during all the years left-wing parties won European Parliamentary elections or national elections. For another, in America, it is not only the right that has charged election fraud: Hillary Clinton, for example, still claims the 2016 election was stolen from her. T...

Paulson: It’s Trump’s time to shine

By Terry Paulson | TownHall.com Former President Trump could easily be over-confident going into the June debate. President Joe Biden isn't even comfortable answering questions from friendly media who want him to look good. He struggles even when he has note cards. Can you imagine how he might perform in the debate when he doesn't know the questions or Donald Trump's response. Even many in his own party are worried about him not performing well.  It almost makes you wonder if this could be the Democrats' plan. A poor performance in the debates could increase the calls for Biden to step down and not run for four more years. With the next scheduled debate being in September and their Chicago convention in August, Democrats would have time to let Biden withdraw with honor and still...

York: Measuring the Trump conviction factor in the 2024 election

By Byron York | TownHall.com If you've been keeping up with the news, you've probably heard a lot of speculation about the effect former President Donald Trump's felony conviction will have on the 2024 presidential race. Here's the real answer, so far: We don't know. The first thing to remember about momentous events and public opinion is that it takes a while for people to process the full import of truly consequential developments. With the Trump verdict, of course partisan zealots on both sides know exactly how they feel. But other, more normal people are not entirely sure. They want to think about it and see how things work out before they settle on what they think. That's where polls come in. The first survey out of the gate came from Morning Consult. The verdict was announce...

Alice Stewart, veteran of GOP campaign trail and ’16 Ted Cruz comms director before CNN, has died

By Matt Vespa | TownHall.com CNN was rocked by the news of the tragic passing of Alice Stewart on Saturday. Stewart was one of the few conservative voices on the network. Though she had voted for the former president, she wasn't a die-hard Trump supporter, often described as a straight-shooter, civil, professional, and kind among her colleagues. Stewart was a veteran of political campaigns, serving as communications director for Michele Bachman, Rick Santorum, and Mike Huckabee’s presidential campaigns. Her most recent gig on the campaign trail was for Ted Cruz’s 2016 bid. Around that time, she was hired as a commentator for CNN and co-hosted a podcast with noted liberal Maria Cardona. Ms. Cardona expressed shock at the loss of her friend, adding that they were scheduled to record...

‘Wait, They Left’: College students stumped by simple questions about Israel and Hamas

By Matt Vespa | TownHall.com With colleges becoming hotbeds for antisemitism and pro-Hamas propaganda, comedian and actor Zach Sage decided to play a little game with the future minds of tomorrow. He introduced “Gaza Graduation: The Game Show” to these kids, asking simple questions about Hamas, Israel, and the Middle East. It was a trainwreck.  Some of these students were paying an arm and a leg to attend schools like Pace and Sarah Lawrence and were egregiously ignorant of the questions. Not that’s a shock to you, but it’s pretty heinous that some of these clowns didn’t even know that Gaza was under the control of Egypt, and then Israel left Gaza in 2006.  “Wait—they left,” responded one flummoxed student.

Biden DHS claims the privacy of illegals on terror watchlist overrides the rights of Americans

By Sarah Arnold | TownHall.com Since President Joe Biden took office more than four years ago, the United States has become a dangerous place for Americans compared to former President Donald Trump’s term.  With Biden’s southern border remaining wide open, millions of illegal immigrants have poured into the country— with many being criminals and posing safety risks to American communities.  According to recent data released by Customs and Border Protection (CBP), the number of suspected terrorists who have illegally entered the U.S. is up over 2,500 percent since the Trump Administration.  READ THE FULL STORY AT TOWNHALL.COM

Pavlich: Your hard-earned dollars shouldn’t go to Leftist media outlets

By Katie Pavlich | Townhall.com Each year, more than $500 million of your hard-earned tax dollars get funneled through the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and into the bank account of National Public Radio (NPR), a far-left media outlet dedicated to tearing down America and the values you believe in. NPR claims to be "an independent news organization committed to informing the public about the world around us." But for decades, NPR has been dedicated to attacking conservatives and carrying water for Democratic politicians. Remember this from the 2020 presidential election? "We don't want to waste our time on stories that are not really stories, and we don't want to waste the listeners' and readers' time on stories that are just pure distractions," NPR Managing Editor Samuels s...

House lawmakers want to put President Donald Trump’s name on major airport

By Spencer Brown  | Townhall Visitors to Washington, D.C., could be landing at Donald J. Trump International Airport if a group of House Republicans gets their way.  Led by House Majority Deputy Whip Guy Reschenthaler (R-PA), a bill in the lower chamber seeks to put the 45th president's name on Washington Dulles International Airport (IAD) outside the nation's capital.  The brief bill text — if it makes it through the rest of the legislative machinations of D.C. — would make the name change official and require "[a]ny reference in any law, regulation, map, document, paper, or other record of the United States" to IAD "considered a reference to the Donald J. Trump International Airport." READ THE FULL STORY AT TOWNHALL

Denver official caught telling illegal immigrants to leave, go somewhere else

By Matt Vespa | Townhall Denver is a sanctuary city. It’s a haven for these people, thanks to a Democrat-led effort that’s enticed tens of millions to cross into the country illegally. It’s part of the Democrats’ plan to increase their clout on Capitol Hill: flood the country with illegals, increase the population, generate new congressional districts, and select candidates of similar ethnic and racial backgrounds. We all know the end game here. The costs of this massive influx of illegals were not considered.  Denver’s hospital system is on the verge of collapse, which explains why the mayor’s political director was reportedly caught telling illegal aliens to leave the city for the Big Apple.

‘American elections should be decided by American citizens – full stop’: RNC wins suit to prevent non-citizens from voting in NY

By Spencer Brown | Townhall.com A lawsuit in New York led by the Republican National Committee saw sanity prevail when an appellate court ruled that no, non-U.S. citizens cannot vote in our elections. If the absurd policy had been allowed to stand, some 900,000 non-citizens to cast votes in municipal elections in the Big Apple.  In a 43-page order in Fossella v Adams, Associate Justice Paul Wooten of the Appellate Division for the Second Judicial Department in New York announced the decision that "the Local Law is null and void on the grounds that it violates the New York State Constitution and the Municipal Home Rule Law." RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel emphasized that "American elections should be decided by American citizens – full stop," in a statement provided to Townhall. ...
