Ding-Dong! The Obamacare Subsidies Are Dead!

The enhanced Obamacare subsidies Democrats shut down the government to protect back in October are officially dead. House Speaker Mike Johnson slammed the door on extending the bloated COVID-era handout, saying the House will focus instead on moving forward with a new Republican healthcare package.

This Viral Clip of Walz and Newsom Talking About 'Masculinity' is Comedy Gold

A podcast clip from earlier this year featuring Tim Walz and Gavin Newsom is going viral again, and for good reason: it’s pure comedy gold.

The two Democratic governors sat down for an episode of This Is Gavin Newsom back in March, and during their 50-minute conversation, they briefly shared their thoughts on masculinity. Yes, masculinity. The irony already writes itself.

Democrats Choke in Tennessee Special Election

Democrats and their allies in the legacy media spent the last few weeks hyperventilating about the possibility of flipping a deep-red congressional seat in Tennessee, hoping to send a shockwave through the Republican Party ahead of the midterms and take that momentum to victory. They truly believed they could snatch victory in a district President Donald Trump carried by 22 points just last year.

But reality came crashing down on them Tuesday night when Decision Desk HQ projected Matt Van Epps as the winner of the special election for Tennessee’s 7th congressional district around 9:10 PM ET.
