Ron DeSantis's ill-fated 2024 presidential campaign was much criticized for being "too online." But Democrats are no less prone to fall into that same trap. Now-Vice President Kamala Harris's 2020 presidential campaign, which generated considerable initial buzz before it abruptly sputtered, was infamous for listening too much to left-wing TV hosts and social media blue checkmarks -- not actual Democratic primary voters. Indeed, that a loud political minority -- either within a party or across the broader electorate -- can drown out a less vocal political majority is now a fixture of our politics, helpfully explained by public choice theory.]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 03 May 2024 00:01:29 -0400</pubDate><creator xmlns="dc"><![CDATA[Josh Hammer]]></creator><enclosure url="https://media.townhall.com/cdn/hodl/2024/116/526a7f80-2a1c-4a2f-a912-2d908114562b.jpg" type="image/jpeg" length="123" /><link>https://townhall.com/columnists/joshhammer/2024/05/03/joe-biden-dearborn-shahid-commits-political-suicide-via-hamas-appeasement-n2638585</link></item><item><title>Radical Leftists Claim Oil Companies Are Committing Climate Murder</title><description><![CDATA[We’re constantly told fossil fuel use is causing an existential climate crisis, extreme weather, worsening wildfires, and more frequent and intense hurricanes, tornadoes, floods and droughts.&nbsp;]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 03 May 2024 00:01:26 -0400</pubDate><creator xmlns="dc"><![CDATA[Paul Driessen]]></creator><enclosure url="https://media.townhall.com/cdn/hodl/2023/269/c627e9f3-8f0f-4952-9f4a-ed570c78db76.jpg" type="image/jpeg" length="123" /><link>https://townhall.com/columnists/pauldriessen/2024/05/03/radical-leftists-claim-oil-companies-are-committing-climate-murder-n2638580</link></item><item><title>Democrat Unity on Border Crisis Showing Signs of Cracking </title><description><![CDATA[Joe Biden’s open-border policies have caused so much damage to the country that Congressional Democrats are very worried about the political ramifications and are running for cover. In the House, some of the most vulnerable Democrats just voted with Republicans for legislation that would overturn the Biden policies and return to Trump-era toughness; in the Senate, Democrats just voted to establish outrageous new precedents simply to cover themselves. Yet, despite their best efforts, the issue just won’t go away – in poll after poll, the issue is at the top of voters’ priority lists, and it cuts 2-to-1 against Biden and his ticket-mates.]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 03 May 2024 00:01:10 -0400</pubDate><creator xmlns="dc"><![CDATA[Jenny Beth Martin]]></creator><enclosure url="https://media.townhall.com/cdn/hodl/2024/4/84928fe6-3a16-4777-964c-1e845557b158.png" type="image/jpeg" length="123" /><link>https://townhall.com/columnists/jennybethmartin/2024/05/03/democrat-unity-on-border-crisis-showing-signs-of-cracking-n2638572</link></item><item><title>Can the Current Universities Be Saved?</title><description><![CDATA[Elite higher education in America -- long unquestioned as globally preeminent -- is facing a perfect storm.]]></description><pubDate>Fri, 03 May 2024 00:01:06 -0400</pubDate><creator xmlns="dc"><![CDATA[Victor Davis Hanson]]></creator><enclosure url="https://media.townhall.com/cdn/hodl/2024/122/3c846163-d246-4e33-8420-bd1b36d8d64f.jpg" type="image/jpeg" length="123" /><link>https://townhall.com/columnists/victordavishanson/2024/05/03/can-the-current-universities-be-saved-n2638587</link></item><item><title>Did the House of Representatives Just Outlaw Quoting Parts of the New Testament?</title><description><![CDATA[According to a growing number of Christian conservatives, including Tucker Carlson, Charlie Kirk, and Andrew Torba (CEO of GAB), the new House bill opposing antisemitism actually outlaws quoting parts of the New Testament?

A Jewish student was poked in the face with a flagpole at Yale University and hospitalized; another Jewish student was knocked unconscious at the University of California, Los Angeles. Masked mobs have prevented entry of Jewish students and faculty into university facilities. Buildings have been vandalized and broken into at Columbia University, Cal Poly Humboldt and other locations.
