With the California’s primary election just days away, Republican gubernatorial candidate Steve Hilton is making his final pitch to voters for why he’s the man for the job — outlining how he intends to bring down the state’s cost of living, while putting more money in people’s pockets.
California voters can register to vote as “No Party Preference.” But in the 2026 race for governor, Democrats seem to have registered as “No Candidate Preference.” Outgoing Governor Gavin Newsom did not cultivate a successor. And for months, there was no favorite among the many Democrats vying to replace him. Even now, it’s not clear...
The Wall Street Journal's conservative editorial board called out the Republican Party in a new editorial on Sunday for appearing to be asleep at the wheel as Democrats telegraph how they will wield their power if they win back the House of Representatives in November. The editors argued that Democrats seem intent on expanding the Supreme Court to 13 justices, a move that they warned could reshape the institution into "a second progressive legislature" that would rule in their favor when certain laws can't pass through Congress. However, the Republicans seem to have little interest in stopping them, according to the editorial. "Democrats are telling the public they are plotting one of American history’s most destabilizing power grabs, by degrading the third branch of government. Why aren’t Republicans calling this out and defending the Court?" the editors wrote. The editors noted that the Democrats' push to reform the Supreme Court is happening at a time when the court has ruled against President Donald Trump in multiple high-profile ways. For instance, the court struck down Trump's tariff regime and has pushed back against his efforts to overturn birthright citizenship. "American courts are still independent, and the Justices are following the law and the Constitution as they see it," the editorial noted. "Democrats are free to dislike the Court’s decisions, yet they aren’t helpless," it added. "If Democrats abhor gerrymandering, they can argue for a bill to limit how, or how often, states draw House maps. But what really angers Democrats is that the Supreme Court is no longer a second progressive legislature that can impose policies they can’t get through Congress."

LaRosa says Dr. Biden is "changing her tune" about the 2024 debate to reshape public perception of her role.
While MAGA candidate Ken Paxton's win isn't an assured victory for Democrats, he'll at least embroil the GOP in a nightmare of its own making.
Could there be a better metaphor for the plight of the out-of-power Democratic Party than the fact that it's now a week into debating how the party screwed up an "autopsy" about how the party screwed up the 2024 presidential election?
Democrats are apparently in no rush to defend embattled Democratic National Committee Chairman Ken Martin. After the publication of an error-ridden 2024 election autopsy, a report that was supposed to explain why Democrats so dramatically underperformed that presidential cycle, the Washington Examiner reached out to more than 50 elected or formally elected party members last […]
Sen. Chris Murphy (D-CT) on Sunday said Democratic candidate in Maine’s Senate race Graham Platner “made mistakes” after reports that his wife found sexually explicit texts with several women on his phone and brought it to his campaign’s attention. Speaking with CBS News’s Face the Nation, Murphy was asked if Platner passed the “character test” […]
