Former President Donald J. Trump slammed Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt’s U.S. Senate campaign Sunday night over a poll that Republican strategists told Breitbart News undercounts Trump’s support in the Show Me State to boost Schmitt’s numbers. “Wow, great dishonesty in politics. Too bad!” Trump wrote of the Remington Research Group poll — commissioned by operatives associated with the Schmitt campaign — in a Truth Social post. Remington was launched by the political consulting firm Axiom Strategies, which was founded by Jeff Roe — Schmitt’s top consultant. With voters hitting the ballots in less than 36 hours, Trump’s Truth Social post […]
Former Gov. Eric Greitens (R-MO) appeared on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Saturday and blasted Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt – his opponent in the Show Me State’s Republican primary for U.S. Senate – as a “RINO” following revelations that Rep. Liz Cheney-donor Sam Fox’s company, the Harbour Group, has dumped $100,000 into a pro-Schmitt Super PAC, while Fox’s son has contributed the maximum amount allowed under Federal Election Commission limits to Schmitt’s campaign. Sam Fox, a very wealthy Missouri businessman and U.S. ambassador during former President George W. Bush’s administration, has previously donated to politicians such as Rep. Liz Cheney (R-WY) […]

A recently released political ad slams Missouri Attorney General Eric Schmitt — a candidate in the Show Me State’s Republican U.S. Senate primary — for his ties to a radical who called for then-President Donald Trump’s assassination in 2017. The ad, which was released by the Super PAC Secure Our Freedom Action Fund and can be viewed here, notes that Schmitt “partnered with a radical Democrat who called for Trump’s assassination.” The Super PAC — which is pro-Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO), another candidate in the race — referenced a Breitbart News article from this month that chronicled Schmitt’s ties to radical Democrat Maria Chappelle-Nadal, […]

Americans are fleeing Democrat-run cities in blue states and relocating to more affordable metro areas, in part due to housing costs and inflation that are pricing them out of their origin cities, according to a report from the real estate brokerage site Redfin. In its report, Redfin revealed that an all-time high of 32.6 percent of its users across the country “looked to move from one metro to another in the second quarter, up slightly from 32.3% in the first quarter and roughly 26% before the pandemic.” Eight of the top ten cities with the highest outflows of residents are situated […]
Rep. Lee Zeldin (R-NY), the Republican nominee for governor in New York, appeared on Sirius XM’s Breitbart News Saturday and emphasized the problems with New York’s extremist no-cash bail laws days after he was attacked at a campaign rally in Fairport and his accused assailant was released without bail. The suspect, identified as 43-year-old David G. Jakubonis, jumped on stage and accosted the congressman while wielding a double-jointed sharp object that he raised to Zeldin’s neck. Hours earlier, Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) issued a press release sharing “the time and location of several of Zeldin campaign’s upcoming stops,” as Breitbart News reported. […]
The leading candidate in the Arizona Republican primary for the U.S. Senate, Blake Masters, ripped Sen. Mark Kelly (D-AZ) as the “worst senator in America” and laid into “RINOS” while speaking at the Save America Rally in Prescott, AZ, Friday night. C-SPAN streamed the rally where Masters gave remarks before former President Donald J. Trump took the stage, and the candidate immediately took aim at Kelly, a former astronaut who is seeking a second term in the Senate and could very well clash with Masters in the general election. “It’s just so good to be here. Of course, we’re here because […]

A midterm election forecast predicts former Gov. Eric Greitens (R-MO) will win Missouri’s U.S. Senate race in a blow-out, with his odds of victory sitting at 96.1 percent against a Democrat opponent in the general election. A central talking point among establishment conservatives against the America First candidate is that Greitens would have trouble overcoming a Democrat in the general election, but Decision Desk’s model, which ran through 14,000,605 midterm election simulations, has Greitens winning 96 out of 100 races, dismantling the establishment’s talking points. As evidenced in Dan Cox’s Maryland’s GOP gubernatorial primary win Tuesday, a battle for the heart and […]
Maryland Delegate Dan Cox (R-04), who secured former President Donald J. Trump’s highly valuable endorsement, defeated Trump critic Gov. Larry Hogan’s (R-MD) choice as his successor, Kelly Schulz, in Maryland’s Republican gubernatorial primary. Cox was the only candidate with Trump’s backing in a contest Tuesday night and handily beat out Schulz, who served as secretary of labor, licensing, and regulation and secretary of commerce during different points of Hogan’s administration. Trump endorsed Cox in November, and the race became a microcosm of something much larger happening in the GOP as the America First movement and Republican establishment battle for the soul […]
A blogger’s sexually charged writings about Rep. Mayra Flores (R-TX), as well as previous racial slur-laden posts, have come to light hours after his “racist” attacks on Flores and reports he received funding from her general election opponent Rep.

Jerry McHale has been heaving racial insults at Flores since at least May, dubbing her “Miss Frijoles,” “Miss Enchiladas,” “gringa hag,” a “cotton-pickin’ liar,” and other tasteless nicknames and race and sex-based insults.

Trump’s assassination came to light this week. With just over two weeks until the August 2 primaries in Missouri, the Republican race for the U.S. Senate nomination is red-hot. While it seemed to be a three-way contest between Greitens, Schmitt, and Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO), the major news that Trump would not […]

Former President Donald J. Trump categorically announced that Rep. Vicky Hartzler (R-MO) will not be receiving his endorsement for U.S. Senate in Missouri. “You can forget about Vicky Hartzler for Senate from the Great State of Missouri,” Trump began in an emphatic post on Truth Social. “She called me this morning asking for my Endorsement, much as she has on many other occasions.” He continued: I was anything but positive in that I don’t think she has what it takes to take on the Radical Left Democrats, together with their partner in the destruction of our Country, the Fake News Media […]
