Musician Nicki Minaj condemned California Gov. Gavin Newsom in a series of social media posts on Friday, declaring his political career is over. Newsom has been outspoken about both his commitment to far-left values and the backlash he has received for advocating some levels of moderation of the far-left positions that have dominated Democratic politics in recent years.

Former President Joe Biden’s disastrous withdrawal from Afghanistan four years ago was a grave national humiliation that betrayed the men and women of our armed forces — particularly those who courageously served in the war-torn country for nearly two decades.  Unfortunately, the costs of this self-inflicted tragedy have continued long after our troops left Afghanistan.
