- 2213Trump Leads Biden in Battleground States with Rep. Eli CraineA new poll shows that Trump is beating Biden in the states that will decide 2024.

- 2216Who’s Doing Blow in the White House?Just as the mainstream media was starting to accept the Hunter Biden scandal, even more information has bubbled up.

- 2217Big Layoffs for Big Government with Vivek RamaswamyWhy is Vivek Ramaswamy now polling third in the GOP presidential field, ahead of countless seasoned politicians and just a few points behind Ron DeSantis?
