for someone who uses very dark colours for my theme and has a lot of tabs opened at once, I have a hard time distinguishing between which tab I'm currently on.
It would be nice to have a implementation of a setting that adds a subtle but visible border around the currently active tab. This would provide a stronger visual cue, making it easier to identify the active tab at a glance, especially in situations with many tabs open and dark coloured themes.
After disappearing Tuesday night and being a no-show at her planned victory party at Howard University in Washington D.C., Kamala Harris has finally phoned President-elect Donald Trump to concede the election. //

Kamala was not actually a strong woman. She has zero toughness.
Kamala broke at the first sign of trouble, ran and hid. She cracked like an egg at the first whiff of doom.
A strong female leader would be able to face her supporters, absorb the shock, and project strength even and especially in the toughest moments. TOTAL FAIL

I think if anyone summed up the results the best so far, I'd have to give that to CNN contributor Scott Jennings.
Last night, Jennings sat on a panel with dumbfounded CNN talking heads who, judging by all the other clips, couldn't seem to wrap their heads around how Donald Trump, a man they convinced themselves was the epitome of evil and corruption, could have won the election. Jennings sat and thoughtfully explained it all masterfully as the rest of his panelists sat in silence, listening.
He began by calling this a "mandate," saying Trump won the national popular vote, and now he has to do what he said he was going to, including getting the economy back up and running, fixing the border, reducing crime, and creating a strong foreign policy.
But then Jennings dropped what is probably the greatest explanation of Trump's win I've heard, and likely will hear.
Jennings described the win as the "revenge" of the regular, anonymous American who "has been crushed, insulted, condescended to."
"They're not garbage, they're not Nazis, they're just regular people who get up and go to work every day, and try to make a better life for their kids, and they feel like they've just been told to shut up when they have complained about the things that have been hurting them in their own lives," he continued.
Next, Jennings came down on his own industry and, without saying it, the people he was currently surrounded by.
"I also feel like this election — as we sit here and pour over this tonight — is something of an indictment of the political information complex," said Jennings. "And the story that was portrayed was not true. We were told Puerto Rico was going to change the election. Liz Cheney, Nikki Haley voters, women lying to their husbands, before that, it was Tim Walz and the camo hats."
"Night after night after night, we were told all these things, and gimmicks," he continued, "were gonna somehow push Harris over the line, and we were ignoring the fundamentals. Inflation, people feeling they were barely able to tread water at best, that was the fundamentals of the election."
"And so, I think both parties should always look at the results of the election, and figure out what went right and what went wrong," said Jennings. "But I think for all of us who cover elections, and talk about elections, to do this on a day-to-day basis, we have to figure out how to understand, talk to, and listen to the half of the country that rose up tonight and said 'we've had enough.'"
Since McDaniel supports Whatley so strongly, many observers have wondered if there will really be any change at the RNC or if the misplaced spending priorities, use of crony consultants instead of folks who can actually get the job done, and fundraising failures will continue. Fortunately, with this restructuring Trump is bringing in Chris LaCivita as COO, and several RNC members who spoke with RedState on condition of anonymity expressed confidence that LaCivita will bring back the fiscal responsibility that's been missing. //

basically she's saying that she was NOT on the Trump -- or America's -- team.....
Musk reminded the folks on X that "You are the media now," after the mainstream media has once again been so discredited. //

They broke out in praise and song at the Trump victory party, singing "How Great Thou Art," as the people who had been slandered as extremist and "garbage" gave thanks to God.

Witnessing this as I left the Trump victory party moved me to tears. These people have been slandered and demeaned. They are good people. Patriots of all backgrounds who love this country and came together to make it great again. 🇺🇸

As of this article’s publication, preliminary results show the amendment with more than 75 percent of support from voters. The New York Times projected the proposal’s passage.
As The Federalist previously reported, the amendment stipulates that “only a citizen of the United States” who is 18 years old and meets existing voter eligibility requirements may vote in elections held in the Tar Heel State. The measure was sent to voters for approval after it was passed by the state’s Republican-controlled House (99-12) and Senate (40-4) earlier this year.
Other states to have similar initiatives on their respective 2024 ballots include Wisconsin, Iowa, Kentucky, South Carolina, and Idaho.
The best thing for the country would not be a big or small victory for Kamala Harris, Tim Walz, and their phony “unity” schtick. It wouldn’t even be a razor-thin Trump-Vance win. The best outcome for the health of our nation — and democracy — would be a landslide victory for Donald Trump.
Just Deserts
First, and most importantly, America needs a decisive victory to communicate to Democrat leaders, media propagandists, bureaucratic tyrants, violent rioters, Big Tech censors, race hustlers, and rogue three-letter agencies that their underhanded and often illegal actions will not be rewarded with electoral victory.
No, Democrats don’t deserve to win after waging unprecedented lawfare against their political opponents, from the former president to peaceful pro-life protesters. They don’t deserve to win after turning federal agencies into a Democrat get-out-the-vote hydra. Or after lying about the integrity of the 2020 election and persecuting honest Americans who questioned the procedures and results. Or after inciting racial violence that razed pockets of flyover America and then lying that the rioting and looting was “mostly peaceful.”
Democrats don’t deserve to win after airing blatant and thoroughly debunked propaganda on network television 24/7/365. Or after colluding with Big Tech ... //
Once again, as voting comes to a close, business establishments in America’s urban centers have boarded up their windows, and we all know it isn’t in anticipation of a Harris-Walz win. It’s to minimize the tantrum damage if the Trump-deranged leftist toddlers don’t get their way.
This time around, though, the imagery isn’t just of an unruly child screaming on the floor of a grocery store after being denied a piece of candy. It’s of a kid who taunts and antagonizes his older siblings until they’ve had enough and counterstrike.
It’s that simple, really: Only a Trump blowout will communicate the degree to which Americans are done with Democrats’ dirty tricks. //
Second, for faith in our democratic process, it’s detrimental for Americans not to know the election results on election night. A decisive Trump victory, however, could give us a quick and confidence-boosting conclusion.
The “new normal” of days-long ballot counting isn’t normal at all. //
Delays in vote tallies sow massive distrust in our democratic process. Just four years ago, in the dead of night while most voters and journalists were asleep, something shady happened in Michigan and Wisconsin. As my colleague John Daniel Davidson wrote at the time, in both swing states, Trump led on election night. And in both states, overnight dumps of mail-in ballots went 100 percent for Biden and precisely zero percent for Trump. Those who pointed out this seemingly statistical impossibility on Twitter were censored.
Of course, a landslide Harris victory could produce a quick result too, but there’s one more factor she absolutely can’t deliver best for the American people. //
Finally, Trump’s policies will obviously be better for Americans than Harris’, and we all know it. Despite Democrats attempting to brand Harris as the “change” candidate, we’re living under her “leadership” right now, and it’s a nightmare. //
A Trump victory this week would spare suffering Americans from living in Biden-Harris hell. But the best thing for the country — for justice, democracy, and everyday living — would be not just a win but an absolute blowout.
Questions and concerns about chain of custody, ballot numbers and other election integrity issues abounded as the Democrat city deals with tens of thousands of absentee ballots and many more Election Day ballots. Republican observers say there is a stink of malfeasance at Central Count.
“There are layers of issues here of stalling tactics. It appears that they are trying to figure out what they need to win,” one Central Count observer told The Federalist. //
Meanwhile, a poll observer tracking several voting locations in Milwaukee says same-day registration at some of the most Democrat-heavy polling sites in Milwaukee — and the county — are at unbelievable numbers. One observer estimates same-day registration at 80 percent of voters at Barack Obama School of Career and Technical Education on the north side of Milwaukee. Same-day voting was also reportedly up in deep blue Madison, which turned in unprecedented numbers in 2020 for Biden.
Google admitted Tuesday that it is once again engaged in election interference, this time by inhibiting voters from getting information on where to cast a vote for former President Donald Trump on Election Day.
Users who searched “Where can I vote for Trump?” were shown a list of “Top stories” and, further down, a link to “donaldjtrump.com,” a link to “USA.gov” about how to vote, and several other websites with voter information.

This was the greatest interview EVER!
JOE ROGAN: “Did you just float out the idea of getting rid of income taxes and replacing it with tariffs? — Were you serious about that?”
DONALD TRUMP: “Sure, why not?”
8:26 AM · Oct 26, 2024 //
Trump went into American political history to explain why tariffs are a better source of government revenue than a system such as an income tax on citizens. The American Founders agreed.
They debated and soundly rejected a federal income tax system, opting instead in 1789 to institute an ad valorem tariff on “all articles of foreign manufacture” as the sole mechanism for funding the federal government. The Tariff Revenue Act of 1789 was the very first law on the books of the very first Congress. That’s why a constitutional amendment was required in 1913 just to make an income tax system legal in this country. //
The income tax system has fueled a monstrous expansion of federal power and created a military-industrial complex that is insatiable in its quest for control of global resources to keep itself in power. This complex seeks to destroy the last vestiges of our Founding system in favor of a globalist “New World Order” and will destroy or even kill anyone who stands in its way — including Trump.
Tariffs Mind America’s Business
Our founders, by contrast, sought not an empire, but a peaceful commercial republic. Our national purpose was to avoid at all costs foreign entanglements that made us vulnerable to the whims of foreign powers.
The tariff revenue system, they reasoned, achieved that. It also met their two major domestic objectives: 1) it was sufficient to obtain the annual revenue for a very limited but fully functional federal government, and 2) it is by far the least oppressive option for Americans.
A confidential draft memo from Everybody Votes indicates its goal is registering voters of certain demographics to “reshape the electorate” — even bragging that its efforts would be the “single most effective tactic for ensuring Democratic victories.” So much for non-partisan! In 2016 and 2020, this 501(c)(3) tax-exempt organization spent $106 million targeting specific voters and reportedly worked with the Hillary Clinton campaign on shaping its strategy.
Nonprofit voter registration groups are required to remain non-partisan under federal law, but Democrats have been exploiting this tax-exempt status for their own benefit for decades. Of course, there has been no prosecution against Everybody Votes because their financial backer is George Soros. The Democrats aren’t going to prosecute their own people. Until the corrupt Democrat machine is removed from power they will continue to illegally influence elections through their illegal, partisan voter registration drives — as evidenced in Pennsylvania.
These schemes to use low-level workers to harvest new voter registrations isn’t new. Remember ACORN — Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now? One of their famous community organizers was Barack Obama. ACORN paid workers to register voters across the nation, but criminal activity plagued the organization. Ultimately, they went out of business and at least 18 employees were convicted on election fraud charges. Those were just the ones who were caught.
Everybody Votes is this generation’s ACORN. They are being accused of massive voter registration fraud and the Harris-Biden administration is doing nothing about it. Instead, they are weaponizing the Justice Department by attacking their political opposition: Elon Musk.
The judge clearly went overboard and illegally focused on Tina Peters’ constitutionally protected viewpoint about election theft.
According to the Media Research Center, after analyzing the corporate news landscape for a time, MRC found that it set a new record in terms of lopsided coverage. Not only did it prop up Kamala Harris with positive news coverage by unforgivable amounts, it focused on painting Trump as the villain with negative news coverage even more:
One week before Election Day, a new analysis from the Media Research Center finds that broadcast evening news coverage of the 2024 presidential race has been the most lopsided in history. Since July, ABC, CBS and NBC have treated Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris to 78 percent positive coverage, while these same networks have pummeled former Republican President Donald Trump with 85 percent negative coverage. (See Methodology explanation at the end of this post.)
The difference in coverage between the two candidates is far greater than in 2016, when both Trump and then-challenger Hillary Clinton received mostly negative coverage (91% negative for Trump, vs. 79% negative for Clinton). It’s even greater than in 2020, when Joe Biden was treated to 66 percent positive coverage, vs. 92 percent negative for Trump. //

You don't need a study. You just need to look at the New York Times and the Babylon Bee and you will see that they are equally satire, but the Bee seems more truthful. When satire becomes life and the press lies about it, then you have arrived in Orwell territory.
Our corrupt media swear the only personal investment they have in this election is ensuring it will be “fair” and consequently end with a peaceful transfer of power, concepts they have worked all along to erode and undermine with not a sliver of regret.
They care about fairness the same way they care about “democracy,” a once important term they’ve raped and bastardized so as to make it unrecognizable. It’s only democracy if their preferred candidate is elected. Likewise, things are only fair if they get to have the last word on what’s true, what’s false, and what’s open for debate. (Hint: True is whatever Democrats claim it to be, and anything to the contrary is disinformation.)
The media don’t get the excuse of being stupid or insane. They’re malicious and depraved. They knew what they were doing when they feigned ignorance over the dramatic degree to which President Biden had physically and mentally deteriorated. They were lying to the public because the full truth would hurt Democrats. They knew what they were doing when they explained away the devastating harm the Kamala-Biden admin was doing with hyperinflation and unchecked immigration at the border. They were lying to the public because the full truth would hurt Democrats.
They knew what they were doing when they looked the other way as a sitting president was removed as his party’s nominee for reelection in a bloodless coup, only to have an absolute joke of a candidate installed in his place with no transparency or discussion of how it happened. And when Democrats said this was all just fine, the media knew what they were doing when they collectively agreed and put their full weight behind convincing voters Kamala was a capable alternative. They were lying to the public because the full truth would hurt Democrats.
They don’t get to say they care about a “free and fair” election. They relinquished that right a long time ago, pissing away all of their credibility, cheapening the constitutional right to a free press, and abandoning any responsibility they had to truthfully inform the voters on the state of the nation.
Nobody needs to worry about whether this is going to be a “free and fair” election. The media already decided it wouldn’t be. What we should be concerned with once this is over is figuring out how it is possible to ever have one again.
In an attempt to claw back some of her lost support, Harris recently appeared with Kareem Rahma, a Muslim influencer. During the interview, which was so bad it went unpublished, the vice president made two major mistakes.
The first was a refusal to discuss the war between Israel and Hamas. Surprising no one, Rahma is extremely anti-Israel and was looking for Harris to throw him a bone on the issue. For her to show up and think she could get away with not talking about it is unfathomable for a presidential campaign. It does show the sense of entitlement Harris continually operates with, though.
That wasn't the worst of it, though. Instead of talking about the conflict in the Middle East, Kamala Harris decided to pivot to trying to convince Rahma that "bacon is a spice," noting that it's "pure flavor" when she received pushback.
Yes, she tried to discuss the finer points of how great bacon is with a Muslim. You can't make this stuff up. //
She's a cyborg. I'm convinced of it at this point. Harris was pieced together by scientists using bolts and duct tape. If she wasn't, she'd have been able to have a normal discussion like a human being about something not deeply offensive to the person interviewing her. Recall that this is the same person whose office had to hold a mock cocktail dinner to prep her on how to drink wine and talk to world leaders.
This is what happens when you have an empty suit running for president. Because Harris has never had an original thought in her life, everything is scripted and force-fed to her. That means when the teleprompter goes out, either literally or figurately, she has nowhere to go. That's how you end up with her riffing on bacon while talking to a Muslim. It's laughable. //

The female version of Ron Burgundy.
Indiana's Constitution includes a list of officials who could temporarily become governor in the event the position is vacant due to death or other inability to serve. This list is called the line of succession.
This fall, voters will see Public Question #1 on the ballot, which asks Hoosiers to update the line of succession.
The Indiana Constitution currently lists seven officials in the line of succession:
- Lieutenant Governor
- Speaker of the House
- Senate President Pro Tempore
- State Treasurer
- State Auditor
- Secretary of State
- State Superintendent of Public Instruction
The language listing the State Superintendent in the line of succession is left over from the era when Indiana had an elected State Superintendent, but now the governor appoints the head of the Department of Education in the same way other heads of agencies and departments are appointed.
Since Indiana no longer elects a State Superintendent of Public Instruction, and the position no longer exists, Public Question #1 proposes removing this office from the line of succession for the governor's office. This proposed amendment leaves the other six offices in the line of succession the same as they are today and ensures that every person serving in the emergency line of succession for governor is someone who has been publicly elected by Hoosiers.
As the nation enters the home stretch of this unpredictable campaign season, Christians hoping to steward their vote wisely have much to consider. One way to go beyond the click-bait headlines, short sound bites, and endless advertisements and gain deeper insight into the priorities of each party is by reviewing the party platforms.
The left’s latest attack stems from Gorsuch’s new book on the government going after regular Americans. //
Three years before he threatened him while standing on the steps of the Supreme Court, Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said the problem with Neil Gorsuch was that his decisions as a federal judge were awful for the average working American.
“When the chips are down, far too often he sides with the powerful few over everyday Americans just trying to get a fair shake,” the powerful Schumer said against Gorsuch’s nomination.
On the first day of those confirmation hearings, Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill., said, “In case after case, you have dismissed or rejected efforts by workers and families to recognize their rights or defend their freedoms.”
Now, Gorsuch’s left-wing critics say his problem is actually the complete opposite. They say he cares too much about the little guy and not enough about the bureaucracy that goes after the little guy.
Yes, really.
The criticism stems from a book Gorsuch recently co-authored with Janie Nitze titled Over Ruled: The Human Toll Of Too Much Law. //
The campaign against Supreme Court justices who fail to bend to the will of the left will undoubtedly continue. This particular attack is about as substantive as the previous ones, which is to say not very.
