The California man who allegedly plotted to assassinated Supreme Court Justice Brett Kavanaugh allegedly googled things such as “assassin skills,” “how to be stealthy,” and “Reagan assassination attempt,” before his foiled attempt. He also planned to kill two other justices, The Daily Beast reports.

Nicholas John Roske, 26, was arrested last month by FBI agents outside Kavanaugh's home. A backpack and suitcase he had with him contained a black tactical chest rig and tactical knife, a Glock 17 pistol with two magazines and ammunition, pepper spray, zip ties, a hammer, a screwdriver, a nail punch, a crowbar, and duct tape, as well as other items.

Former megachurch pastor Ted Haggard, who was taken down by scandal, is facing similar accusations from another church, The Denver Gazette reports.

Haggard, 66, is being accused of using methamphetamine and behaving inappropriately with young men at St. James Church in Colorado Springs, which he founded in 2010.

A Pennsylvania Republican is calling her own party's nominee for governor unfit to hold the office in a new editorial published by the Pennsylvania Patriot-News.

In the editorial, physician and registered Republican Andrea Kesack argued that GOP gubernatorial nominee Doug Mastriano "has no business" leading her state after winning the GOP's nomination earlier this year.

The Colorado Outdoor Recreation and Economy Act includes four measures — the Continental Divide Recreation, Wilderness, and Camp Hale Legacy Act; the San Juan Mountains Wilderness Act; the Thompson Divide Withdrawal and Protection Act; and the Curecanti National Recreation Area Boundary Establishment Act — that will protect over 400,000 acres in Colorado through new wilderness, recreation and conservation areas, and establish a new historic landscape designation for Camp Hale, where the U.S. Army’s 10th Mountain Division trained during World War II.

The CORE Act protects Camp Hale by creating the first-ever National Historic Landscape, preserving nearly 29,000 acres surrounding Camp Hale. From November 1942 through June 1944 Camp Hale housed 14,000 troops — along with 4,000 mules and 250 sled dogs — of the 10th Mountain Division, who learned to rock climb, perform military maneuvers on skis, and endure a brutal climate in preparation for mountain warfare. Over 18 grueling months soldiers trained to fight at high altitudes.

On Tuesday, Rolling Stone reported that Matthew Belanger, a former Marine with neo-Nazi ideology, plotted with a group known as "Rapekrieg" to engineer a killing spree of nonwhite people — as well as mass rapes of white women to increase white fertility.

"In a July 14 court memo, federal prosecutors say that, while a Marine, Belanger plotted far more serious crimes as part of the neo-Nazi group," reported Adam Rawnsley and Seamus Hughes. "The memo says Belanger trained with airsoft guns in the woods of Long Island as part of plot to attack the 'Zionist Order of Governments.' The memo also says Belanger was the subject of an FBI Joint Terrorism Taskforce investigation into allegedly plotting to 'engage in widespread homicide and sexual assault.' Much of Belanger’s ideology and plotting, the memo says, is based around a desire to lessen the number of non-white Americans and to rape 'white women to increase the production of white children.'"

U.S. Rep. Lauren Boebert over the weekend served up a wide range of false claims about Democrats and their legislation protecting same-sex marriage, which passed past week with a strong bipartisan majority.

The Colorado Republican lawmaker during a conservative conference denied being an escort for Sen. Ted Cruz, claimed Democrats have “weakened the nuclear family and undermined masculinity” by passing the bill, and even claimed 47 GOP lawmakers only voted for the bill out of fear of attack ads if they did not.

In an op-ed published at the Washington Examiner, former CIA officer Marc Polymeropoulos writes that news reports about Secret Service agents calling their families on January 6 to say goodbye reminded him of the time he was staying at a U.S. facility in the Middle East that was attacked by al Qaeda.

"As a car bomb hit the back gate and automatic weapons fire, as well as grenades, rained down on us, my wife placed a call to her sister back home and said her goodbyes," Polymeropoulos writes. "We thought we were all going to die that day. Our children watched from their school a mile away and cried and hugged their friends, thinking their parents would never return home. So I get it. I understand the fear that those Secret Service agents apparently experienced. You don’t make those calls to loved ones if there is a way out."

Sherronna Bishop, a former campaign manager for Rep. Lauren Boebert (R-CO), choked up on Tuesday while insisting that "elections matter."

Bishop appeared on Steve Bannon's podcast with Mesa County Clerk Tina Peters. The homes of both women were raided by the FBI in connection to an election fraud case. Peters also recently lost her bid to become the Republican nominee for Colorado secretary of state. She disputes the results of her election and the results of the 2020 presidential election.

As America suffers a devastating heat wave, Donald Trump claimed victory after the U.S. Supreme Court issued a ruling limiting the ability of the federal government to regulate carbon emissions.

In June, the high court ruled 6-3 in West Virginia vs. Environment Protection Agency in a decision dissenting Justice Elena Kagan said weakened “the power to respond to the most pressing environmental challenge of our time.”

Wes Moore, whose by-the-bootstraps life story has led to stints as an entrepreneur, nonprofit CEO, and best-selling author, claimed victory Saturday in the Democratic primary for governor, taking him one step closer to the pinnacle of Maryland politics in his first run for elected office.

The Associated Press called the primary for Moore at 11 p.m. Friday, but Moore waited until late Saturday afternoon to acknowledge the victory, waiting for his nearest competitor, former U.S. Labor Secretary Tom Perez, to concede.

WASHINGTON — The U.S. House voted mostly along party lines Thursday to send the Senate legislation that would guarantee people the right to use contraception without government interference.

The GOP governor of Florida was criticized for a long list of his choices in a brutal new editorial examining his potential 2024 presidential campaign.

"Ron DeSantis was Ron who? — a back-bencher in Congress with little hope of political stardom — when Donald Trump enthusiastically endorsed him more than four years ago. One Trump tweet changed Florida history," the Sun Sentinel editorial board wrote. "Now, as the ex-president sees DeSantis emerge as his biggest rival, Trump must have buyer’s remorse. You can practically hear the dishware breaking at Mar-a-Lago."

Last weekend in Tampa, about 500 members of the conservative education advocacy network Moms for Liberty gathered for their first national summit. True to the spirit of a group that has helped drive many of the most heated school board confrontations of the last two years, the summit's most headline-grabbing moment came when Betsy DeVos, the former secretary of education under Donald Trump, called for the abolition of the Cabinet-level department she used to run.

"I personally think the Department of Education should not exist," DeVos said, sparking cheers and a standing ovation, during a lunchtime session named for her recent book, "Hostages No More: The Fight for Education Freedom and the Future of the American Child." It's hardly the first time DeVos has suggested as much (she did so just last month, at an event for conservative think tank American Enterprise Institute), and she's also hardly alone, as a growing number of Republican politicians and conservative leaders have called for demolishing the DOE in increasingly strident attacks on public education, including a 2021 bill supported by right-wing House Republicans like Lauren Boebert and Matt Gaetz.
