In the wake of a defeat the blame for which has been placed not unfairly at the feet of the media, intellectuals, and elites in general, I’ve been taking stock of my work from the past couple of years. As a minor and junior member of that class, how’d I do? I think the answer is, “Okay.” I’m proud of the analysis I did of Silicon Valley’s right turn and the intra-tech industry class war politics it represented; I think I got that right. I’m also glad I never underrated Trump’s chances.

But it is decisive nonetheless. In 2020, there were seven swing states in which the margin was less than three points. Six of those went to Biden. Last week, Trump won all seven. In nearly every one of the country’s thousands of counties, he improved on his 2020 numbers.

Two news items last week marked the end of election year contention within the Democratic Party over Israel. The first was a statement by the Uncommitted movement – so named because it had organized voters to choose that option instead of Biden in the officially uncontested Democratic primary elections – in which the group declined to endorse Kamala Harris, after she rejected their increasingly minimal demands.

By Tim Barker, Editorial Contributor Nothing good comes from a tragedy like Pulse. Yet, in some ways, the horrors of that night, when Johnathan Amaya escaped the shooting, helped prepare him for another challenge. A couple months before the first anniversary of Pulse, sharp chest pains sent Amaya to urgent care. A week later, he was hit with the diagnosis: acute T-cell lymphoblastic lymphoma, a form of leukemia that typically affects young men.

Yet he didn’t resist.
