We Get to Test the Theory That Women Running Things Will Make Our Lives Better

For years, I’ve had to listen to the Left tell us that if women ran the world, things would be great. All it takes to dispel that notion is a functional brain and eyes. In Germany, former Chancellor Angela Merkel is the reason the country can’t power its homes in winter and traded clean nuclear power plants for emergency coal-fired ones. She’s also part of the reason why the Islamist invasion of Europe is happening. But girl power, or something.

But now we get to test this theory in real time, after electing a slew of Democrat women to state and congressional offices last week.

Eight women won statewide office in Georgia, including governor, attorney general, and secretary of state.

We told you about Lydia Powell the other day. She opposes standardized testing and basically admitted public schools are a massive jobs program for adults instead of places where students are educated. 

She gave that interview wearing a shirt featuring communist Angela Davis, who was on the FBI’s most wanted list for her involvement with the Marin County Courthouse shooting on August 7, 1970. Superior Court Judge Harold Haley was killed when the sawed-off shotgun taped to his chin went off. She was later acquitted of all charges.

Georgia‘s new insurance commissioner, Keisha Sean Waites, said she will ban insurance companies from using credit scores and ZIP codes when setting premiums. 

What this means, of course, is that every single Georgia resident who pays insurance is going to get a massive premium hike to offset the risk from insuring Georgians with poor credit or who live in high-crime areas.

Keisha Lance Bottoms is governor-elect. During her tenure as Atlanta’s mayor, the city’s schools only had about 36 percent of students test proficient in reading and about 35 percent test proficient in math. Atlanta has a total crime rate of 42.93 per 1,000 residents, with 732.0 violent crimes per 100,000, more than double the national average. 

When fellow Georgia politician Stacey Abrams protested against the state’s voter ID laws, driving Major League Baseball (MLB) to pull the All-Star Game from Atlanta in 2021, Lance Bottoms said she understood MLB’s decision and chided Georgia voters that “elections have consequences.” It cost the city more than $100 million. To further prove the outcry over Georgia voter laws were performative, voter participation actually increased after the passage of those laws, and MLB gave Atlanta the All-Star Game in 2025.

During COVID, Lance Bottoms saw a record homicide surge and a collapse of police morale. In 2020, 192 officers retired. Following the officer-involved shooting of Rayshard Brooks, the department was 423 officers short and riots rocked the city. An 8-year-old girl, Secoriea Turner, was shot and killed near a Wendy’s that was torched by rioters. Only then did Lance Bottoms tell the rioters to stop. Lance Bottoms also fought with Gov. Kemp over COVID restrictions and ordered a return to stay-at-home policies and to-go-only dining in July 2020.

She ended up not seeking reelection. Now her failed policies will be enacted statewide.

Here in Wisconsin, women will be the Speaker of the Assembly and state Senate Majority Leader. They have plans to enact a radical, far-left agenda that involves massive tax increases and a stripping of our Second Amendment rights.

In Minnesota, Amy Klobuchar is now governor, and she will do nothing to address the massive Somali fraud in the state. She once spoke Somali at an event celebrating the election of a political leader in Somalia, going so far as to wave an upside-down American flag.

But don’t worry, her top priority is gun control.

In Texas, seven of nine state Supreme Court seats are now held by Democrat women.

What could possibly go wrong in our biggest border state? The good news is, we’ll soon find out.

That’s also the bad news. Because, speaking as a woman, Democrat women are so ingrained with toxic empathy that nothing good will come of this. We will see economic problems, increased crime, open borders. The chaos that follows is not worth whatever message voters were hoping to send to Republicans, but there’s no stopping it now.

Maybe I’m wrong. Maybe they’ll take their jobs seriously and improve life for people in Georgia, Texas, and America. But I wouldn’t bet on it, because I’ve seen what women do when they’re given power. And when things go tits up, these women will blame President Trump, Republicans, and men for their failures.
