The Supreme Court on Monday decided against hearing a case from Washington, D.C., residents who are lobbying for representation in Congress.

The bench affirmed a ruling from a lower court that stated D.C. residents are not entitled to voting representation in the House of Representatives.

In a brief unsigned order Monday, the justices cited a Supreme Court decision from 2000, which concluded that the Constitution does not require that D.C. must have a right to a vote in Congress. Read Full Story

The ethical corruption of our national news media has extended to a degree that once would have seemed unimaginable. We were exposed to yet another remarkable example with the reporting on the long-awaited audit of the 2020 presidential election results in Arizona.

Widespread election fraud had been suspected in Maricopa County, the largest in the state, and the state legislature authorized a thorough forensic investigation. A draft of the election report was leaked to the press last week, and every news outlet quickly released selectively chosen details. The message was straightforward. The audit proved that Joe Biden had actually won the state’s presidential election by even more than originally reported and thoroughly discredited charges of election fraud.

“A more fired-up Republican base has already coalesced behind Herschel Walker and the crossover vote favors him, as well,” Big Data Poll Director Rich Baris said. “But the size and scope of Walker’s advantage over Raphael Warnock is blinding when drilling down on area and region.”

Baris notes that Walker is “is dominating among all the key regional demographics.” Read Full Story
