This is the debate after a near-extinction level midterm?

Interesting. Robert Rector was probably Heritage's most influential domestic policy scholar of the past 40 years, with a huge role in the 1996 welfare reforms. (We co-authored a report in 2003 when I was there).
But, he criticized Tucker and anti-semitism, and now he's gone.

The Heritage Foundation has ousted one of its most prominent critics of Tucker Carlson, Robert Rector.
Rector challenged Heritage President Kevin Roberts last year over his defense of Carlson.

No idea if this happened. But literally no one can plausibly claim the chances of this being true aren’t greater than zero.

One of Trump’s biggest frustrations with Wiles, according to administration officials, is that she and the Justice Department weren’t doing enough to go after people seen as leaking classified material, to jail reporters who publish such material and to prosecute his opponents.

It is absolutely wild that days after massive Black turnout propelled Democrats to a huge victory in the House, mostly white leftists are publicly demanding that Democrats reject the first Black Speaker of the House.
If you wanted a better example of the out-of-touch-ness of the left I’m not sure you could make one up that matches this.

“Colossal landslide.”
If people will lie about something so easily checked, why believe them about anything else?
Trump received 49.8% of the popular vote compared to Harris’s 48.3 %. He won 312 electoral votes. His win was decisive, but hardly a landslide, never mind a colossal one.
At the heart of the 2024 campaign was President Trump’s pledge to halt the border invasion and carry out history’s largest deportation — the first two promises in the GOP platform.
President Trump won a colossal landslide.
Since then, there has been a nonstop campaign of criminal obstruction, threats, harassment, doxing and grave physical attacks and riots against ICE agents — stoked endlessly by Democrats — to reverse the election result by violence.
This large-scale political violence is domestic terrorism.
And it is the absolute moral and constitutional duty of the federal government to stop this terrorism, defend the lives and safety of federal officers, and protect the American citizen and nation by ensuring the full and unrestricted enforcement of federal immigration law in all fifty states.

I love how MAGA apologists who ignored or even celebrated Trump’s character flaws now suddenly discover them and pretend to be brave truth tellers. When it would have cost them, they happily promoted the cult. Now they’re like “oh my God it’s a cult! Why can’t you see it?!”
Megyn Kelly: “Trump has cheated on every wife he’s had. He met Marla Maples while he was married to the mother of his children Ivana. Ivana accused him of raping her. She alleged he was so angry over the hair transplant he got that she made him get, it was so painful that he raped her. He winds up with Melania and if you think Trump’s been faithful to Melania, you’ve got bigger issues than I can solve”

Polish Foreign Minister Radosław Sikorski says relations with Russia will never be the same as before the war, arguing that the West has come to recognize Poland's warnings about Putin. He described Russia's problems as both civilizational and cultural-political, saying the country remains trapped in what he called a "Mongol-tsarist" model followed by a Bolshevik one. Attempts to create something different have failed, he said. #Russia
