The following is an installment of “On This Day,” a series celebrating America’s 250th anniversary by following the actions of Gen.

George Washington readies his army for […]
In an interview with Tucker Carlson, Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) blamed the Israeli lobby for his inability to gain polling separation from his 2026 primary opponent.
