Since the missile that landed in Poland probably did not come from Russia, NATO determined that Ukraine was not to blame. After Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy said on Thursday that a Ukrainian missile was not to blame for the “explosion” that killed two people in Poland, President Joe Biden strongly disagreed. Just after 12:30 a.m., on the South Lawn of the U.S. Capitol, Biden told reporters, “That’s not the evidence.” The “explosion” that killed two Poles in the town of Przewodow, some 30 miles from the Ukrainian border, was blamed on Ukraine’s air defense system, but on Wednesday, Zelenskyy rejected…

Just days after Twitter’s CEO Elon Musk publicly mocked him, Massachusetts Democrat Sen. Ed Markey doubled down on his threat. As previously reported by Townhall, Markey authorized a Washington Post reporter to pose as him on the platform in order to draw attention to the flaws in the firm’s new premium service, which, among other things, grants $8 monthly subscribers a blue check mark. After firing off an angry letter demanding an explanation from the billionaire, Musk fired back with a few jabs of his own. The senator took offense and issued a threat in response. He’s increasing his bet.…

This would be Trump’s third attempt for the presidency; he previously won in 2016 and lost in 2020. Donald Trump has announced his campaign for president in 2024, kicking off the Republican primary to unseat President Biden. Almost immediately following the announcement, Susan B. Anthony Pro-Life America issued a statement calling the upcoming tournament the “human rights conflict of our time.” “With his policies and actions as president, Trump has redefined the role of a pro-life leader in the United States. He campaigned on a platform of supporting the pro-life cause and exposed Hillary Clinton’s severe attitude toward abortion during…
Florida Senator Rick Scott (R) challenged Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Kentucky) on Tuesday. Most people think highly of me. McConnell predicted his re-election in a press conference on Tuesday. The only open question is how fast you can make the change.

Some of the Republican senators present included Marco Rubio (Florida), Josh Hawley (Missouri), Ted Cruz (Texas), Ron Johnson (Wisconsin), Rick Scott (Florida), Mike Lee (Utah), and…
The 2016 election was the biggest surprise in modern American politics. Everyone worldwide was taken aback by Donald Trump’s surprising victory over Hillary Clinton. The election also pushed the Left over the brink in terms of logic and decency. By utilizing opposition research paid for by the Clinton campaign to make up ludicrous charges of conspiracy between Trump and the Russians, they have effectively militarized the intelligence community (the Steele dossier). Fifty percent or more of Democrats hold Russian hackers responsible for the 2016 election’s outcome. The Democratic Party has a lengthy tradition of contesting the results of elections they…

Both Democrats and political analysts agree that Trump is dividing the country further. Now that Trump is a potential candidate for the Republican candidacy in 2024, Democratic legislators and analysts are more enthusiastic about the election. Brad Bannon, a Democrat political expert, claims that even if Trump’s campaign lags behind prospective primary challenges, most Democrats would consider his decision as positive to their party and would continue to focus their messaging on the previous president. You need someone “much more popular, or at least has the potential,” Bannon told Fox News Digital, in order to oust an incumbent. It’s challenging…
On Wednesday, Republican Senator from Kentucky Mitch McConnell declared his intention to “stay out” of the “very competitive” Republican presidential primary in 2024. McConnell told reporters, “The way I’m going into this presidential primary season is to stay out of it.” “I’m not taking sides in that dispute. It looks like there will be a lot of competition for the nomination. It’s common knowledge that McConnell wasn’t Trump’s greatest backer before he declared his candidacy for president on Tuesday night. At this time, there is no other primary challenger in the Republican Party. At times throughout Trump’s administration, McConnell and…
Sens. Ben Sasse (R-NE) and Raphael Warnock (D-GA) were the only senators from their respective parties to vote against ending President Joe Biden’s pandemic emergency on Tuesday night when the Senate voted 62 to 36 in favor of doing so.

Less than a month after declaring “the pandemic is finished” on “60 Minutes,” the president extended the deadline. In the Senate, every Republican except for Ben Sasse voted to end the emergency, and 12 Democrats joined…

We just had an election, people. This runoff in Georgia is crucial for the Republican Party. After noting that “it was not so brilliant…

There were reports that the farm struck was located 15 kilometers inside of Polish territory. The story claims that the Polish government first denied the news.
