Culture Taki’s Hellas of Heroes The latest woke fad is but a brief moment in the span of Hellenic history. TakiMag I write this from the ancient land of Homeric heroes, Hellas, better known to the rest of you as Greece. Hellas has given us democracy, philosophy, tragedy, comedy, oligarchy, oratory, and ostracism. We also invented the Olympic Games, in which amateur athletes competed for a laurel wreath, and some died for it during the pankration competition. (It was like MMA but much rougher, and many expired rather than surrender.) Half of Greek males today are called Alexander—after the great king—and many others are…Open
Testifying about rising threats being made against the Supreme Court, Justice Amy Coney Barrett details the threats made against her and her family and why her service on the bench has put her in the position of “explaining to my children what a bulletproof vest was and why I had to wear one.”
Republican Kentucky Rep. Brett Guthrie insinuated that Republican Kentucky Senator Mitch McConnell — absent from public for weeks following a medical emergency — isn’t even in Washington, D.C. A spokesperson for Guthrie told the Daily Caller that’s not what he meant. In a video posted to X by Courier Journal state politics reporter Keely Doll, Guthrie said he has contacted people on Mitch McConnell’s staff and exchanged text messages with the senator, but has not spoken with him directly by phone.

Phillips was convicted of a “minor misdemeanor” involving marijuana possession in 1994
Gun Owners of America (GOA) and Gun Owners Foundation (GOF) filed a federal lawsuit Wednesday seeking to throw out Pennsylvania’s lifetime carry ban for people with misdemeanor drug convictions.

‘I spoke to my old friend Mitch McConnell this morning’
Joe Biden. Mitch McConnell. The congressman nobody had heard about until he went missing for months. Why are politicians so opaque about their health and cognitive abilities? Americans have unfortunately come to assume that politicians lie virtually every time they open their mouths. Now, we all assume that when a politician is too old or beleaguered by an aging body and brain to serve in office, their handlers will also lie and dodge and chum the waters with carefully crafted statements rather than just telling the truth, plain and simple.

DOJ’s Civil Rights Division Continues Its Election Integrity Offensive
The Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division is going on the offensive on election integrity, deploying election monitors to 12 jurisdictions as the 2026 midterms fast approach. The push mirrors work already underway at the Republican National Committee (RNC ), which has built out its own election integrity division, pressuring states to clean up voter rolls and tighten mail-in voting rules. The DOJ and RNC don’t coordinate directly, but the two are pursuing similar priorities. Harmeet Dhillon, the assistant attorney general for the DOJ’s Civil Rights Division, told the Daily Caller in an interview how her division plans to secure the 2026 midterms and beyond. “It is our duty here at the Civil Rights Division of the Department…Open
EXCLUSIVE: GOP Senators Target Rampant Child Care Fraud After Minnesota Scandal
Republican Louisiana Sen. Bill Cassidy and Alabama Sen. Tommy Tuberville are setting their sights on rampant alleged childcare fraud in states like Minnesota, the Daily Caller learned.
