Republicans are walking a tightrope heading into the 2024 election.
They must show their base that they are fighting hard on the issue of election integrity, which many conservatives believe cost former President Donald Trump his 2020 re-election bid.
Simultaneously, they must operate in the reality that they now live in the world of ballot harvesting and drop-boxes.
That dichotomy is why the Republican National Committee (RNC) told the Daily Caller they are committed to prioritizing election integrity efforts between now and November. They are waging lawsuits on issues ranging from ballot access to voting rules. Yet the party is also heavily pushing its “Bank Your Vote” initiative, encouraging Republicans to vote early. |

NOTABLE QUOTES |
Victoria Manning contributor to The Federalist: American education has become a system of force — like that of North Korea or Cuba. How can children be taught about capitalism when they are living the realities of socialism for 13 years of their lives, stuck behind the wall of government schools? The only thing government hasn’t taken over is tucking your children into bed — yet.
Townhall.com X post: Karine Jean-Pierre just used NYPD Officer Jonathan Diller’s death to push for more gun control, while making no mention of Democrat-run cities’ soft-on-crime policies. The man who shot Officer Diller has 21 prior arrests, including for first-degree robbery and selling drugs to an undercover police officer. He also was arrested on a gun charge just last year.
Matt Taibbi investigative journalist: The story of “The Twitter Files” is about turning the internet into a tool of surveillance and social control instead of a democratizing tool. If they decide to go all the way with that, we will get that totalitarian outcome. I think it is a very real threat and we all need to worry about it. |

Over the past 18 months, The Daily Signal’s Virginia Allen and I have visited the border from the Gulf of Mexico to the Pacific Ocean. What we saw in all our travels was the same: President Joe Biden’s deliberate abandonment of every measure that has worked in the past to reduce incentives for illegal immigration, combined with diminished enforcement of immigration law in the interior, has attracted economic migrants from all over the globe.
People from over 180 countries who want to enter the U.S. but have no legal basis to do so know that the Biden administration will let them in and allow them to stay, so they come. It’s as simple as that. |
