If Republicans really believe that a socialist/communist/Islamist takeover of the Democratic Party is an existential threat, why aren't they sounding the alarm bells? Bill O'Reilly weighs in. Meanwhile, the widespread construction of controversial data centers is causing outrage nationwide, as politicians and candidates put them at the center of their campaigns. Rep.
