President Donald Trump's administration is threatening to withhold some federal funding from states that don't make changes to voting practices and is warning state election officials that they face arrest if they don't remove noncitizens from voter rolls.
Maine Beer Company co-founder Dan Kleban said Wednesday that he's all in to replace scandal-plagued Democratic Senate nominee Graham Platner, who has yet to drop out of the race.
Vice President J.D. Vance said Wednesday that he will meet with Milwaukee Mayor Cavalier Johnson, a Democrat who heavily criticized the Trump administration's probe into allegations of election fraud during the 2020 election.
When President Donald Trump announced he would be leaving the NATO summit in Turkey aboard the old Air Force One, rather than the newer Qatari airliner, he claimed it was so that American service personnel could tour his luxurious new ride. But his post raised more questions than answers. Could the new $400 million plane, […]
Graham Platner is a serial philanderer with a drinking problem and a long record of obscene and misogynistic public comments. That made it unsurprising when the New York Times gave his ex-girlfriends space to describe his abuse. But Platner is also the Democratic nominee for a competitive U.S. Senate seat, and his top competition has […]
The Trump administration is losing its longtime base over the continuing dispute over the southern border wall. After years of shifting goals, this border issue is exposing unaddressed fissures in the foundation of President Donald Trump’s support. In West Texas, the Trump administration is poised to begin construction on another installment of a 30-foot border […]
The battle against censorship became crucial around the same time the Knicks won their last championship: more than 50 years ago. After the Vietnam War, progressive propaganda began to control the political narrative, and conservatives started to see a reality in which their ideas faded into white noise — silenced and censored. But just as […]
The International Olympic Committee has announced that it will greenlight a full return for Russian athletes at the 2028 Los Angeles Games, despite the fact that nothing much has changed with respect to Russia’s invasion of Ukraine. The IOC declared that it was “provisionally” lifting the suspension of Russian athletes that had been in place since October […]
It’s beginning to be a habit. It, in this case, is the messy business of center-left political jettisoning one leader suddenly deemed unelectable and, without resort to the usual rules or democratic procedure, designating a replacement. It’s the process that came fairly close to giving Americans President Kamala Harris in 2024. It’s happening not just […]
Welcome to Wednesday’s Washington Secrets. We’ve made it a long one to fill up the emptiness of a day without a World Cup match. Which may be a good thing if you are the Belgian prime minister. … Plus, we have exclusive polling that shows just how bad things are getting for Benjamin Netanyahu. EXCLUSIVE […]
The following is an installment of On This Day, a series celebrating America’s 250th anniversary by following the actions of Gen. George Washington, the Continental Congress, and the men and women whose bravery and sacrifice led up to the signing of the Declaration of Independence. PHILADELPHIA — The document that gave birth to the idea […]
President Donald Trump says our “great ally” Turkey had contemplated joining the war against Israel, and, ultimately, the United States. “Maybe they didn’t do that because of me,” the president said on his state visit to Ankara, “but they could have gotten into the fight on the other side.” The other side? The side of […]
If Iran has ever done a great service to the United States, it came over the last month. In essentially disregarding the memorandum of understanding, the Islamic Republic has provoked President Donald Trump to declare the deal “over.” To put it lightly, Trump’s Iran deal greatly benefited Tehran and put the U.S. and its allies […]
America turns 250 this year. The celebrations have begun. Fireworks, parades, speeches, concerts, reenactments, and patriotic imagery have filled town squares across the country, with more commemorations still to come. A nation that has endured for a quarter millennium deserves to celebrate its achievements. But anniversaries should be more than commemorations. They should be moments […]
Gov. Bob Ferguson (D-WA) signed E2SHB 2034 on April 1, and the date suited the occasion. The law terminates the Law Enforcement Officers’ and Firefighters’ Retirement System Plan 1, creates a successor plan on paper, then sweeps nearly $3.9 billion in surplus out of a plan that was 160% funded, including $569 million directly to […]
If you live in the United States and think America has no culture, you aren’t paying attention. On July 4, 2026, the 250th anniversary of the birth of the U.S., millions of families gathered across the country dressed in red, white, and blue to watch fireworks, barbecue, and reflect on the liberties we uniquely have […]
