Stifling defense lifts Arizona men’s basketball to win over Washington State

The Arizona Wildcats men's basketball team defeated the Washington State Cougars Thursday, Feb. 25 in going-away fashion, with a final score of 69-53. The game was closer than the final score as WSU either led or were level with the Wildcats for a majority of the first 20 minutes of play before Arizona closed the half on an 8-2 run to take a 28-24 halftime lead and never looked back from there. It was a sloppy basketball game from an offensive standpoint as the two teams combined for 25 turnovers, 28% (11-39) from three and 63% (19-30) from the free-throw line. To go along with its minimal 12 turnovers, Arizona was able to match that with a team total of 15 assists, almost doubling WSU’s total. Arizona head coach Sean Miller and his team looked to have found a defensive identity in this game as the Wildcats were able to keep the Cougars at an alarming 31% (20-63) from the field.

Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse ‘Biggest Hypocrite in Politics’ on Dark Money

Sen. Sheldon Whitehouse (D-RI) has served as one of the most vocal Democrat critics of “dark money’s” influence in politics, but the Rhode Island Democrat appears to be a significant beneficiary of dark money. Whitehouse has frequently criticized the alleged nefarious effects of dark money on politics, particularly as it relates to conservative and Republican dark money. Dark Money refers to political spending in which the source of the money is not disclosed. Political groups typically use dark money through political action groups such as 501(c)(4)s, and the federal government does not require those groups to disclose their donors. “Opaque” nonprofits and shell companies may also give unlimited donations to super PACs. The transparency organization OpenSecrets noted that while the Federal Election Commission (FEC) usually requires super PACs to disclose their donors, “some of these groups are effectively dark money outlets when the bulk of their funding cannot be traced … [Read more...] about Democrat Sheldon Whitehouse ‘Biggest Hypocrite in Politics’ on Dark Money

Sen. Rick Scott on the Democratic Party: ‘It’s a Socialist Party Now’

Thursday, Sen. Rick Scott (R-FL) sounded off on his efforts to help the GOP retake the Senate majority. Scott advised that the Democratic Party is “a socialist party now” with its embrace of open borders and defunding the police. He stressed that the infighting following former President Donald Trump’s impeachment trial is “absolutely canceled” and how the GOP needs to “focus on the issues.” “[W]e see what the Democratic Party is — it’s a socialist party now. They’re all in to socialism,” Scott said on FNC’s “America’s Newsroom.” “So, the Republicans’ civil war is absolutely canceled. We are going to focus on issues. I won my races, three general elections, one primary, because of issues. That’s what’s going to happen. The Biden administration is making it easier for us. They are killing jobs. They won’t open schools. You know, open borders. All these things. And what we are going to be known for, we are going to help families.” He continued, “Republicans are going to be known … [Read more...] about Sen.

Gretchen Whitmer Administration Refuses to Answer Questions About Nursing Home Policy

Michigan Gov. Gretchen Whitmer’s (D) administration refused to answer questions from legislators Thursday about her coronavirus nursing home policy. During a House Oversight Committee meeting, chairman Rep. Steve Johnson (R) acknowledged a representative from the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS) declined to participate: “Most of your guys got a letter last night from the director (MDHHS’s Elizabeth Hertel) in response” to the announced hearing, he said. “We asked them to testify, we asked them last week. We really wanted them to testify, because there are questions that need to be answered. They refused to testify. They sent us this letter instead,” Johnson told the committee. The committee chairman indicated the letter claimed MDHHS has “the greatest data out there,” but did not share any of it. “I’m just a simple guy, but in my mind if you have the best data out there, wouldn’t you share it with people?” he said. Johnson said the data reported … [Read more...] about Gretchen Whitmer Administration Refuses to Answer Questions About Nursing Home Policy

Anti-Trump Professor: ‘Dying’ GOP ‘Replicating’ Soviet Communist Party

The Atlantic published an op-ed on Thursday comparing the GOP to the Communist Party of the Soviet Union of the late 1970s, claiming that Republicans —  like the last Soviet-era holdouts in the Kremlin — are “growing more aggressive and paranoid” as the “dying” Republican Party is described as “more of a danger to the United States than to the world.” The essay , penned by Harvard professor and prominent anti-Trump voice Tom Nichols, is titled, “The Republican Party Is Now in Its End Stages” and begins by claiming that the GOP “has become, in form if not in content, the Communist Party of the Soviet Union of the late 1970s.” Clarifying his intent, Nichols writes that “the Republicans have entered their own kind of end-stage Bolshevism, as members of a party that is now exhausted by its failures, cynical about its own ideology, authoritarian by reflex, controlled as a personality cult by a failing old man, and looking for new adventures to rejuvenate its fortunes.” … [Read more...] about Anti-Trump Professor: ‘Dying’ GOP ‘Replicating’ Soviet Communist Party

FNC’s Rove: ‘Looking Forward’ to Beto Run for TX Governor — ‘Nothing Succeeds Like Failure for Him’

Thursday, during an appearance on FNC’s “Fox News Primetime,” former Bush deputy chief of staff Karl Rove discussed the political future for former Rep. Beto O’Rourke (D-TX), who has over the last few years mounted unsuccessful bids for U.S. Senate and the Democratic presidential nomination. Rove pointed to Texas Democrats’ struggles in recent election cycles, which have occurred as O’Rourke has taken a prominent role in the Texas Democratic Party. “He’s been planning to run for governor for the last year,” Rove said. “And he was the captain in charge of the Democratic voter registration and get out the vote effort. They’ve issued an autopsy report this week saying, we don’t know how or why, but we lost the voter registration battle to the Republicans who out registered us by at least 88,000, and we lost the get out the vote effort.” “They expected that they would win the Senate race, that they might carry the state for Biden, that they pick up at least three and perhaps as … [Read more...] about FNC’s Rove: ‘Looking Forward’ to Beto Run for TX Governor — ‘Nothing Succeeds Like Failure for Him’
