    Five Proud Boys were convicted by a jury last week for criminal acts related to January 6, 2021, but no one really believes they did anything more violent than BLM and Antifa. Thousands of the latter cases involving violence have been dismissed. U.S. District Court Judge Timothy Kelly allowed the...
  2. It’s Time to Move to a National Popular Vote in Order to Combat Election Fraud https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2023/05/01/i…onal-popular-vote-in-order-to-combat-election-fraud-n2622648
    I’ve only changed my mind on one political issue in my life, the National Popular Vote (NPV). What convinced me was that the votes of people in non-battleground states don’t count under the current electoral math. So much for one person, one vote. And with the Democrats targeting certain swing...

    The long-anticipated report from Special Counsel John Durham investigating whether there were any ties between Donald Trump and Russia was issued last week, entirely discrediting the FBI’s investigation into the matter and the hysterical biased mainstream media coverage. The FBI and DOJ targeted Trump and his associates soon after Trump took presidential...

    Conservatives who say we need to go with someone else for president other than Donald Trump due to the left targeting him with political prosecutions are missing the larger picture. This is one of the most frightening eras in America’s history, where the left has weaponized politics to the point...

    While the vast majority of societal problems today can be traced to the left, there is an annoying problem that persists among a few on the right regarding blaming broad groups of people, unfairly stereotyping them as leftists. Fortunately, I’ve noticed few conservatives say this about blacks and other minorities...

    Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich is running for U.S. Senate, challenging Democrat Mark Kelly, and much of the criticism against him may be coming from the out-of-state Silicon Valley billionaire-funded candidate Blake Masters who is also running as a Republican, inside sources say. Brnovich has a lengthy record as a...
  12. City of Phoenix Gave Employees Lead Poisoning, Democratic Leaders Won’t do Anything About it https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2022/03/14/c…soning-democratic-leaders-wont-do-anything-about-it-n2604506
    The City of Phoenix is run by Democrats; the mayor has been a Democrat for years and the city council is dominated by them. They refuse to help former city employees who contracted health problems — and some died — working around buildings with high levels of lead in the...
  13. If We Had a National Popular Vote, Election Fraud Would Become a Lot Harder https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2022/03/28/i…pular-vote-election-fraud-would-become-a-lot-harder-n2605109
    One issue that some conservatives get, but others don’t, is that sticking to the old system where a few key swing states decide elections isn’t going to allow Republicans to become president much longer. Demographics are changing, and even if you’re an election fraud denier, Republicans are losing ground in...

    Suing your beloved alma mater is never easy, but that's exactly what Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich did when he saw Arizona State University abusing its tax-exempt status to let big business avoid paying taxes. With this sleazy tactic, many universities across the country are actually becoming the largest real...
  16. Stop Calling Everyone Grifters https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2023/07/04/stop-calling-everyone-grifters-n2625292
    There’s been a disturbing trend on the right recently of referring to others in the movement as grifters. While it’s true that grifters are increasingly hijacking the right, as I wrote about last fall, the awareness of this problem has morphed into a tendency to accuse all kinds of people...
  17. Stop Calling Everyone RINOs https://townhall.com/columnists/rachelalexander/2023/07/10/stop-calling-everyone-rinos-n2625490
    I’ve written about a disturbing trend on the right calling fellow conservatives “grifters” who really aren’t, and it’s not the only trend like this occurring on our side. Some are expanding the definition of the acronym RINO to include solid conservatives merely because they disagree with them about strategy. Lawmakers...

    There was a major backlash this year for the first time against Pride Month, and much of the trend can be credited back to a brave writer who broke a story in December 2021 about a transgender athlete competing in female sports. For this, he has been drastically shadowbanned on...

    The Republican establishment and its power brokers are starting to panic about the likelihood of Donald Trump winning the presidential nomination, and even the respected Club for Growth is now running ads against Trump. It is not so much Trump’s over-the-top statements that bother them, but the fact he could...

    Tucson Federal District Court Judge David Bury issued a decision on December 30 denying a retrial for imprisoned former Congressman Rick Renzi of Arizona, developments which I’ve been tracking over the last six months.
