Donald Trump’s VP pick JD Vance really stepped in it when he wrote the foreword to the forthcoming book by Heritage Foundation President and Project 2025 architect Kevin D. Roberts. Vance has given his imprimatur to a book by a fellow weirdo zealot who considers contraception, IVF and even dog parks to be anti-family. In fact, Roberts’ own book is even more extreme than the 900-plus-page Project 2025 playbook for a future authoritarian Republican administration which contains multiple anti-abortion references but does not touch on contraception, IVF or dog parks. Donald Trump is trying to run away from the toxic Project 2025,…

OXNARD, Calif. – When students at Channel Islands High School in Oxnard head back to school this fall, there will be a friendly new face there to greet them.

The dog’s handler, Alfonso Escobedo, took note of the dog’s behavior. The giant canine kept his eyes on the same location in the ring, to the confusion of both Escobedo and the owners. Escobedo asked owner Holly Reed to move away from the ring, thinking maybe Alfonso was distracted by her presence. But even after Reed stepped away, the Giant Schnauzer persisted. He was clearly concerned about something. That’s when…

The Health and Wellness Village, which would presumably be located next door to Kiawah Island Town headquarters on Betsy Kerrison Parkway, is back up for approval by Charleston County Council’s Planning Commission.  It was only about a year ago when the Island Park Place Health and Wellness Village was first up for Charleston County Council’s Planning Commission approval, which ultimately led to a unanimous disapproval among the commission members.  At that time, they recommended that Charleston County Council also disapprove the project. In February of this year,…
