Minnesota's massive fraud scandal could deliver a stunning Senate upset. I’m referring to contest between longtime NFL broadcast professional Michele Tafoya and the Minnesota’s Lt. Governor, Peggy Flanagan. They’re squaring off in the senate race. Tafoya demonstrated decades of quick on-camera thinking in her debate with Flanagan this week, combining it with a deft slash at Flanagan’s greatest vulnerability. That is: Flanagan’s apprenticeship as lieutenant governor to Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz during the tidal wave of fraud that swept across Minnesota after Covid-era “look-the-other-way” policies became a feature, not a bug, in Minnesota’s vast system of "safety net" programs. Tafoya’s knockout line— “Sell it to someone else, Peggy”—was a wake-up call for the electorate.    Tafoya would have been a good candidate in any cycle. She’s a terrific one for a midterm statewide campaign when her matchup is among the most watched in the country.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

Hugh Hewitt: "Sell it to someone else, Peggy"

In the 25 years since deadly terrorist attack shocked the entire world on September 11, 2001, our nation has been forced to have a conversation about Islam. And from the George W. Bush administration to the Obama administration and the Biden administration, there's been one degree or another of evasion, both by these political leaders and by our cultural and intellectual elites. The true nature of Islam is rarely acknowledged. All this underlines the importance of an important new book by Eyman Ibrahim, the title of the book, “Sharia versus the US Constitution: Why Americans Must Choose Freedom.” Professor Ibrahim writes with remarkable candor and academic precision, openly asking the question of whether Islam's core commitment to Sharia law is compatible with US Constitution. With remarkable accuracy and candor, he reveals that no such compatibility exists. It's not just an awkward fit, it comes down to a contradiction. Islam is fundamentally incompatible with our form of government and the US constitution, and Americans cannot say they were not warned.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

Albert Mohler: Americans Cannot Say They Weren't Warned

Ignoring the riots in France will not constitute the first time we downplayed important lessons from Europe at our peril. Note the banners under which the protestors are rioting—the expanse includes every radical left-wing organization from the Revolutionary Socialist Party to Resiste Palestine to the International Communist League.  Palestinian flags and keffiyehs are everywhere. What do those movements have to do with what started out as a protest over education conditions?  Everything. The omni-cause of anti-Western civilizational sentiment is found in every part of today’s amalgamated left, yoking socialists’ Marxist philosophy to Islamism and Palestinian anti-Western violence. Do not ignore the effort to sanitize the Democratic Socialist of America here in our country—as they look to decouple it from communism. That’s a separation wholly unknown to the members of the DSA, whose leaders and members affiliate boldly with their communist caucuses. Our DSA candidates may speak a genteel language, but the troops and members within it can be seen in full expression in the streets of France.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

Seth Leibsohn: Don't Ignore What's Happening in France

Democratic Senator Elissa Slotkin recently said something truly shocking. Speaking at the University of Chicago, she argued that Trump administration officials should be prosecuted—not because they’d actually done anything wrong, but to send a “deterrence message” to young people who might otherwise work for the administration. She’s not alone. Florida Democratic Senate candidate Angie Nixon has called for her Republican opponent to be “locked up” and “punished in jail.” This is nothing more than mean-girl politics, but with real power behind it: vilify and ostracize anyone outside your group. Except now, instead of banishment from the cool kids’ lunch table, they’re threatening people with prison. That’s sinister. In America, we don’t prosecute people simply because we disagree with them. We debate them out in the open, fair and square—and then let the voters decide.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

Carol Platt Liebau: Slotkin's Threat

Pollsters and the media are predicting a blue wave. They point to President Trump’s low approval ratings and Democrats’ lead in congressional polling. But this election is no foregone conclusion. For one thing, summer Senate polls in recent election cycles have often overstated Democratic support. A polling lead isn’t a victory. For another, Republican committees and outside groups have a huge financial advantage. Some major Democratic donors are withholding money from the national party, still angry about how their donations to Kamala Harris’s campaign were spent. That leaves less money for ads and getting voters to the polls. And in close races, those resources can make the difference. Republicans still face a steep climb. Second-term midterms are notoriously tough for the president’s party. But predictions don’t decide elections. Voters do. And this election is far from over.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.
