Republican Texas Rep. Tony Gonzales’ alleged affair partner’s autopsy reveals she was under the influence before her death.
The autopsy of Regina Ann Santos-Aviles, Gonzales’ former Regional District Director, shows that her death was ruled a suicide by the Bexar County Medical Examiner’s Office, according to the report obtained by the Daily Caller. The document confirms her death was the result of self-immolation.

Department of War press secretary Kingsley Wilson told the Daily Caller about the administration’s game plan as tensions with Iran escalate.
President Donald Trump drew a red line on negotiations with Iran during his Tuesday State of the Union address, stating Iran must commit to not building a nuclear weapon.
CNN senior data analyst Harry Enten said on Thursday that Americans favor Republicans’ approach to immigration enforcement over Democrats at this point in President Donald Trump’s term.
Ahead of the midterm elections, Democrats have attempted to accuse the Trump administration of cruelty and unlawfulness as they continued ramping up their deportation efforts throughout the U.S. However, Republicans hold a five-point lead on the question of who Americans’ trust more on immigration, which is a major switch from Democrats’ six-point edge in 2018, Enten said.

Greetings, Dear Reader,
Let’s talk about chicks with … um … hold on that’s not right. Rather, dudes with … boobs?
Mentally unwell dudes in dresses. And the worst kind, actually, the kind who have bamboozled the public into voting for them.
ESPN’s Stephen A. Smith suggested that Democrats shifted left to appeal to non-black voters during a Wednesday interview on “In Depth with Graham Bensinger.”
Former Vice President Kamala Harris, former President Joe Biden and former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton all captured the vast majority of black voters in the last three elections. Smith said on Bensinger’s show that he did not believe their loyalty to the party had paid off.

Republican Oklahoma Gov. Kevin Stitt suggested he does not think Democrats are supporting lax border security policies for the goal of getting illegal immigrants to vote for the party.
The governor, who is known to have a tenuous relationship with President Donald Trump, said that in his view, Democrats’ intentions are not to make foreign nationals part of the country’s voter rolls, in an interview with NPR that aired Thursday. The Oklahoma Republican’s colleagues come as the Senate is considering the Trump-backed SAVE America Act, which would, in part, require proof of citizenship for voter registration, amid fierce opposition from Democratic lawmakers.

Here’s the SOTU comparison you’ve been waiting for…
THE SOUND OF PATRIOTISM
What does real American patriotism sound like?
You probably heard it in President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address.
Two members of Democratic Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz’s administration testified that some rioters used the fact that they were exposed to tear gas at demonstrations to qualify for Paid Family and Medical Leave funded by the state’s taxpayers.
Fox News chief political analyst Brit Hume said Wednesday that President Donald Trump slightly misstated Iran’s long-standing public position on nuclear weapons.
Trump delivered his State of the Union address Tuesday, outlining his administration’s national security, economic and foreign policy priorities. Hume addressed the matter on “Special Report with Bret Baier” as U.S. envoys prepared for talks in Geneva.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune on Wednesday laid out what he called a path forward for Republicans as it pertains to stalled Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding.
The Senate voted 52–47 to advance a House-passed full-year DHS funding bill but fell short of the 60 votes needed to overcome a filibuster after Democrats withheld support over immigration enforcement demands. Appearing on “Kudlow,” Thune said Democrats are blocking the broader DHS measure, effectively freezing resources for disaster response, airport security, coastal defense and cyber protection.
