Apparently, Sophie Cunningham is the newest superstar in the WNBA. Last Tuesday, Celeste Keaton, a minority owner of the Seattle Storm team got in the faces of 2 16-year-old female fans. By the end of the week, the WNBA had suspended Keaton from attending the team's next 5 home games. After the WNBA fined and suspended Keaton , Cunningham spoke up, with the Storm issuing a statement that said "We are aware one of our co-owners made comments to two fans in attendance at last night's game. We apologize that this happened. Everyone who attends a Storm game deserves to feel welcome, and we remain committed to creating an inclusive environment where every fan is treated with respect." The statement read like it was written by a hostage than anything else. Acccording to this Fox News article , "Jennifer Sey saw what happened during the Indiana Fever’s game against the Seattle Storm and insisted the 'Save Women’s Sports' movement needed to follow Sophie Cunning...

Friday night, Almanac hosted the first televised debate between top GOP gubernatorial candidates. Kendall Qualls and Mike Lindell participated. Lisa Demuth couldn't attend because of scheduling conflicts. Follow this link to view the debate for yourself. The debate introductions start at the 20:00 mark, with Kendall Qualls getting the first question. The first question was asked by Co-Anchor Cathy Wurzer about whether he'd call a special session to address the wildfire situation in the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness. Qualls quickly affirmed that he'd call that special session. For the record, Lindell also affirmed that he'd call a special session. When Wurzer asked if he'd tack anything else onto the widfire bill, Qualls said that he'd add tax relief for everyone to the wildfire relief bill. Qualls also mentioned that the paid family medical leave was already running a deficit. When Wurzer replied that paid family medical leave was popular, Qualls questi...

At his campaign rallies, President Trump frequently told people that they'd get tired of winning. At this point, people are tired of negotiations. Thankfully, today's early guests (Marc Thiessen and Aaron Cohen) told Kudlow that President Trump gave Iran a veto over winning by giving Iran the opportunity to negotiate. In this interview , Aaron Cohen said something that popped Kudlow out of Kudlow's bubble. Cohen said "Larry, I want to tell you where my head is really at right now. Right now, we're treating this like it's conventional warfare and it's not. This is a low-intensity conflict, Larry. This is what special operations and clandestine intelligence units were set up for. They were set up to go after terrorist organizations masked as states, which is what the mullahs are. So if I were advising President Trump, here's what I'd tell him to do. I'd tell him to take a look at what the Shah warned 50 years ago. You can not approach the mullahs ...

It's astonishing that the Trump administration has spent more days negotiating with Iran than it's spent waging war against Iran. That's particularly astonishing considering the fact that the U.S. just hit Iran 13 straight days. Yesterday, President Trump said " We're Going to Beat the F--king S--t Out of Them ." It's fun hearing that type of machismo from the commander-in-chief but I'd rather that he just take out Iran's theocrats and the people who protect them, aka the IRGC and the Basij. Wipe them out and the regime topples. We've proven that we can take out Iran's Air force and Navy. It's time to finish the job. If there's a theocrat still breathing inside Iran, then the job isn't finished. FINISH THE JOB! We don't need an endless war, which we aren't close to. We don't need endless negotiations, either, with an enemy that isn't negotiating in good faith. That's what's happening right now. Take out t...

It isn't easy outdoing Joe Biden when it comes to opening the U.S.'s borders but Mike Lindell's given it a good shot. Lindell didn't smash it. He didn't even break it. Still, Lindell gave it a good shot. According to quotes in this Alpha News article , one "of the most prominent immigration think tanks in the United States is calling out Mike Lindell’s recent proposal to provide permanent work visas to illegal aliens." In short, CIS is calling Lindell out. CIS resident fellow Andrew Arthur said "This proposal is an amnesty. It’s an amnesty for a population of undetermined size. It has all of the deficiencies of any amnesty, and it threatens to have a huge impact on the working population in the United States." First, let's dig into some of the particulars of Lindell's proposal. According to the article, "Lindell, a Republican candidate for governor of Minnesota, has proposed the creation of a six-month deportation moratorium during w...

Minneapolis is getting softer on crime by the day. I'm convinced of that after reading this Alpha News article . According to the article, "A north Minneapolis man now charged with murder in connection to a fatal shooting earlier this month should have been serving time in prison, court records show, but was instead free due to sentencing departures on two prior violent crime convictions." This time, the culprit isn't Mary Moriarty. The article continues, reporting "A witness later told police that the two men were arguing before Cole lifted a black bag wrapped around his hand and apparently shot Byrd. Cole then fled on foot but was located by police a short time later. Police also found a discarded drawstring bag on Washington Avenue with a gun inside and a hole in the bottom corner where the muzzle was pointed." That's bad anough but it gets worse: Cole was charged in September 2020 with second-degree attempted murder for seriously injuring a man in a ...
