James Talarico is the Mamdani of Texas

With Rep. Jasmine Crockett (D-TX) getting edged out by state Rep. James Talarico, the state of Texas is far from safe for Republicans. While Talarico builds his brand on populist rhetoric and “politics of love,” his victory was fueled by the very kind of mega-money he claims to oppose. Talarico accepted tens of thousands of […]

James Talarico is the radical Left’s Trojan horse

State Rep. James Talarico, the Democratic nominee for the Texas Senate race, was sold to voters as an “electable” moderate. Now that his old posts are resurfacing, people are starting to see how extreme his views really are. The same candidate who came under fire for calling former U.S. Rep. Collin Allred a “mediocre black […]

On This Day: Washington stuns Gen. Howe, who can scarcely believe what he pulled off

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. March 5, 1776 As the day breaks in Boston, British […]

Hegseth should drop the flippant bluster

Making public statements, War Secretary Pete Hegseth’s job is to inform Americans on the state of the military and its operations. Childish bluster only undermines that agenda. Hegseth might believe such rhetoric will enthuse President Donald Trump’s MAGA base, but it does not do what the Trump administration needs it to do: persuade all Americans […]

Why would the US or Israel trust Mark Carney’s Canada?

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is complaining about being left out of the loop about the strikes against Iran. Perhaps if he weren’t so busy buddying up to enemies of the United States and the West, this would not be a problem. “The United States and Israel have acted without engaging the United Nations or […]

Trump, Iran, and the midterm elections

TRUMP, IRAN, AND THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS. Last Dec. 9, this newsletter discussed the feeling, growing at the time, that President Donald Trump had not devoted attention to the economy, especially the cost of living. Voters regularly cite economic issues as the most important facing the nation, and this Trump term, with midterm elections approaching, is no […]

We must terminate Tehran’s tentacles of terrorism, not just Iranian leadership

Iran’s military assets are being obliterated by U.S. and Israeli strikes, but airpower cannot dismantle one of the regime’s most dangerous asymmetric capabilities: sophisticated illicit financial networks that extend far beyond Iran’s borders. Billions of dollars stashed offshore could still be mobilized by surviving hardliners to prop up the regime, finance terrorist attacks in the […]

The $4.4 trillion pivot to socialism

The mask is finally off. Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) are no longer just advocating democratic socialism — they are attempting to legislate it through a massive $4.4 trillion wealth tax. By targeting the nation’s wealthiest individuals for an annual 5% confiscation of their assets, they are signaling a radical new […]

In Albany’s tax-hike kabuki theater, the one sure thing is that regular New Yorkers will lose out in the end

Even with Gov. Kathy Hochul vowing to avoid any tax hikes (before the November election, anyway), the Legislature's leaders and hard lefties are determined...

When 7-OH fears drive policy by anecdote

For generations, communities in Southeast Asia have used the leaves of Mitragyna speciosa — kratom — brewed as a drink to relieve pain and steady mood. Its principal alkaloids, mitragynine and the more potent 7-hydroxymitragynine, act on opioid receptors and produce analgesic effects. Kratom has since gained a significant presence in the United States, where consumers […]

States can strengthen families and fight welfare dependence and fraud

For six decades, Washington has waged a War on Poverty with ever‑increasing sums of money. According to the House Budget Committee, federal means‑tested welfare spending now exceeds $1 trillion a year, with more than $12 trillion projected over the next decade. When counted as income for recipients, all that spending has reduced poverty, even as […]

How US intelligence is guiding the Iran war effort

The success of Operation Epic Fury, the U.S. air and missile campaign being waged jointly with Israel against Iran, depends on two things: precision weapons and accurate intelligence. Pentagon shortages of cutting-edge ordnance, which is expensive and inherently slower to replace than is commonly understood, are already causing concerns. If this operation continues longer than […]

Oct. 7 is among history’s greatest military blunders

It is clear that the Iran-backed Hamas attacks on Israel on Oct. 7, 2023, were a blunder of epic proportions for the Islamic regime. Many of history’s great military disasters center on a major tactical error. The Romans at the Battle of Cannae and Napoleon’s invasion of Russia failed spectacularly because leadership underestimated a presumably inferior […]

Beware the Reza Pahlavi boosters

Over the weekend, joint U.S.-Israeli air and missile strikes began against the Islamic Republic of Iran. These strikes have, thus far, inflicted grave damage, killing Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei and many other senior officials. Iran’s fourth-rate navy has been mostly sunk, too. Tehran’s already limited conventional military capacity has also been significantly eroded. However, the […]
