Every Democrat running in a competitive race should be asked one simple question: Are you with Abdul el Sayed and Hasan Piker, or not? Piker was not a random celebrity who clicked “endorse.” The militant-left streamer was a key surrogate who campaigned shoulder to shoulder with el Sayed.

The West is winning the strategic fight against Iran on the high seas. Today, the United States does not stand alone. A strong coalition of 39 nations has united to defend global trade.

The Trump administration has implemented measures to restrict independent journalism, including the firing of leadership at the military newspaper Stars and Stripes following reports on poor conditions aboard the aircraft carrier Abraham Lincoln.
The Supreme Court’s mail-in voting ruling on Monday in favor of President Trump stirred up the dust just ahead of the midterms. “Only time will tell,” the court cautioned on the lawfulness of Trump’s policy in question as it ruled on an early challenge to it.
