Kamala Harris embraces ‘neighborly’ socialism with Tim Walz as running mate

So the already hackneyed declaration that Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), who Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris hopes will replace her as vice president, is “folksy.” But the move […]

The kingmaker of chaos: George Soros’s failed experiments threaten his kingdom

George Soros turns 94 on Aug. 12. The left-wing billionaire, enemy No. 1 of the Republican Party, is losing on many fronts. His vision was a test trial in progressivism.
