The RNC Summer Retreat is June 26-28 in Washington. JD Vance is confirmed as a speaker. So is Howard Lutnick.
Why hasn’t the RNC announced when and where the midterm convention will be? What’s the delay?
Trump wants it. The RNC approved it. Party leaders say it will help hold the House and Senate.
At this point, the convention itself may be easier to organize than the announcement about the convention.
NEW: Five FBI employees were fired today over the infamous Richmond Catholic memo on “radical traditionalist Catholics,” FBI source confirms to @realDailyWire.
The irony is hard to miss.
California Democrats redrew CA-6 to elect a Democrat. Instead, the state's top-two primary system may send two Republicans Kevin Kiley and Michael Stansfield to the general election.
When you engineer the map but forget about vote-splitting, you can get unexpected results.
The race hasn't been called, and ballots are still being counted. But it's possible Democrats could be locked out of the general election in a district they redrew to win.
Maine Senate candidate Graham Platner is a growing nightmare for Democrats. Scandals keep piling up in the must-win race. There is a way to replace him. State law allows a primary winner to withdraw by July 13, with party officials able to choose a replacement by July 27. If Democrats want to flip the Senate, Maine is a must-win seat.
Teachers’ unions were created to represent teachers. A new report shows they’ve increasingly become political spending machines—directing millions of dollars toward Democratic campaigns and leftist nonprofits rather than educating our children.Must read:

🚨BREAKING: Republican Mike Rogers is projected to FLIP Michigan's US Senate seat.
Michigan - 2026 US Senate
🟥Mike Rogers 43.9% (+3.3)
🟦Abdul El-Sayed 40.6%
El-Sayed is the favorite to win the Democratic nomination, but has not led in any of the SEVEN polls conducted between him and Rogers.

OMB Director Russ Vought is putting a stop to one of the biggest misuses of taxpayer dollars: nonprofits receiving government funding while engaging in leftist political activities. He’s trying to bring transparency and accountability to a system that has operated with little scrutiny for decades.
This is different from the Medicaid fraud investigations being done by VP Vance and Dr Oz. So far they are exposing fraud with hospice providers, child-care centers, and autism services.
What’s emerging here is a much bigger question: how many taxpayer-funded nonprofits are operating as de facto leftist political organizations while maintaining nonprofit status?
For decades, Washington has funded a vast nonprofit ecosystem that often engages in advocacy, lobbying, voter mobilization, media campaigns, and partisan political activity under the banner of “public service.”
Every Cabinet secretary should conduct a top-to-bottom review of nonprofits receiving grants through their agency and publish a public list identifying which organizations are primarily carrying out political activities rather than their stated charitable mission.
Taxpayers deserve transparency. If public money is funding political machines, the public has a right to know. @russvought@RussVought47@AndrewKolvet
BREAKING: Russ Vought at OMB has just overhauled $1 TRILLION in federal grants by adding: Strict E-Verify requirements, English-language rules, and political appointee oversight to ensure taxpayer dollars go to American citizens first.
Vought’s new proposal replaces automatic payouts with “pay for performance” standards. Grants can now be terminated for waste, fraud, underperformance, or pushing anti-American priorities like DEI, gender ideology, or Green New Scam programs.
No more blank checks and fraud complaints go STRAIGHT to inspectors general and U.S. Attorney Jeanine Pirro within 10 days.

Here’s Vought a month ago laying out his plan that went into effect today.
"Venezuelan people are suffering, are desperate to see a democratic change."
Venezuelan Opposition Leader Maria Corina Machado discussed her plan to run for office to bring freedom to her homeland on Friday's "The Record with Greta Van Susteren." @MariaCorinaYA@greta
The White House solidified their message on aliens: Not from outer space - aliens in the U.S. being tracked by ICE.
The Trump team's new website tracks illegal immigrant arrests and ICE operations nationwide on a live map along with searchable data.
"Countless presidents, congressmen, and senior officials knew exactly what was happening," the site says.
"Instead of protecting American citizens, they chose to cover it up and even accelerate the invasion.
Until one man finally had the courage to tell the truth."
Happening now: Columbus Circle at Union Station is completely restored as part of Trump’s effort to make “DC Safe and Beautiful.”
Secretary Burgum and Secretary Duffy are here to cut the ribbon for the official reopening.
Cook Political Report is underestimating how much the race changes now that the GOP primary is over. Republicans can turn their ammunition on James Talarico’s record on religion, gender ideology, and just how far left his views really are.
Texas is still Texas — and it’s hard to imagine Texans sending a vegan progressive to the U.S. Senate.
🚨SHOCK POLL: Ken Paxton SURGES in the Texas runoff after receiving Trump's endorsement.
Texas - US Senate - Republican Primary Runoff
🟥Ken Paxton 57% (+22)
🟥John Cornyn* 35%
With Cornyn trailing by 22%, this is likely the end of the four-term senator's political career.

DC has one of the most vulnerable election systems in America. Universal mail ballots, drop boxes, ranked-choice voting, same-day registration, signature match, and no voter ID. If it’s a bad idea, the DC Board of Elections does it.
NEW: Tulsi Gabbard plans to release the findings of a number of high profile investigations before she departs ODNI on June 30, @realDailyWire has learned, including Havana Syndrome/AHIs, COVID, weaponization, the 2020 election, and more.

Do you know what happened in the last 24 hours?
1. Late on Thursday night @FBI agents landed at New York Stewart International Airport with Mohammad al Saadi in handcuffs. Al Saadi, the leader of an Iran-backed Iraqi terror group is allegedly responsible for more than 20 attacks across Europe and Canada and for planning attacks in the U.S..
2. Jose Enrique Martinez Flores, who goes by “Chuqui," the highest ranking Tren de Aragua leader to be extradited to the U.S., also just landed in the U.S. in shackles. Flores allegedly oversaw TdA’s drug trafficking, extortion rackets, prostitution rings and murder operations.
Then, last night, in an operation that makes any fictional representation look amateurish, American operators, working with local Nigerian forces, killed Abu-Bilal-al-Minuki, the second in command for ISIS global operations, a man with the blood of countless innocents on his hands, including many Christians.
This is just one day in the Counterterrorism operations of President @realDonaldTrump.
We salute the intelligence professionals, Law Enforcement Officers, Diplomats, Military operators and support personnel who make these operations possible 24/7.
