In living memory, patriotism, the love and devotion for one’s country, appeared alive and well, as people waved flags, stood for the national anthem, and recited the Pledge of Allegiance in school […]
When will the Air Force’s B-2 bombers pay another visit to Iran? That decision is actually up to Ayatollah Ali Khamenei, the Iranian supreme leader, and his now-smaller inner ring of advisers, some of whom probably remain agents of Israel’s Mossad foreign intelligence service. It is a useful skill to be able to put yourself […]
Nearly 75% of all freight in the United States is moved by trucks. They deliver everything from construction materials to hospital supplies to the packages on your porch. But the system is overworked and under-resourced, which slows down deliveries and drives up prices. Autonomous trucking — yes, self-driving big rigs — is the solution to […]
U.S. officials fear regime change. They dread instability and the unknown. In reality, naysayers are seldom right. Post-World War II Germany and Japan show that regime change can work. The problem in Afghanistan and Iraq was less regime change than misguided nation-building and wishful blindness to Iranian and Pakistani interference. Regardless, today, Iraq is not […]
Former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations Nikki Haley offered her first praise for President Trump in several months in a Monday op-ed in Israel Hayom, an Israeli right-wing newspaper.

Donald Trump's recent decision to order strikes against Iran has seen him adopting the neoconservative vision of reshaping the Middle East through military power, and he must now see this vision through to achieve meaningful change in the region.
New York Gov. Kathy Hochul (D) on Friday slammed Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-N.Y.) for “endangering her own constituents’ lives, health, and jobs” by supporting President Trump’s megabill. The social media squabble comes just a day after The Hill reported that Stefanik is preparing to officially launch her campaign for governor. Hochul claimed the GOP “One,...
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-S.C.) reportedly requested the Trump administration to unfreeze Biden-era climate funding in support of a car manufacturing plant in her southeastern district, which covers much of the Palmetto State's lowcountry region. In a Tuesday letter obtained by The Washington Post, Mace asked the Department of Energy (DOE) to release the funds for...
Rules on everything from firearm bump stocks to environmental permitting are being invalidated or reopened, but Congress has taken no meaningful steps to review or update those laws and is now actively undermining its ability to do so in the future.
The Senate on Saturday is expected to take up a procedural vote to advance President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” after internal squabbles and parliamentarian rulings continue to cast doubt on its passage ahead of the self-imposed July 4 deadline. Senate Majority Leader John Thune (R-S.D.) on Friday still noted that the schedule could be subject...
Senate Republicans have revised language in President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” to eliminate the $200 tax stamp for firearm silencers — also known as suppressors — and scrap a similar tax stamp for short-barrel rifles. It’s a win for Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), a senior member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, who pushed for the...
Senate Republicans’ latest version of President Trump’s “big, beautiful bill” includes notable tweaks to the party’s proposals to reduce federal spending for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) in the coming years — after recent pushback from Alaska Republicans.
