President Trump has asked the Supreme Court to hear a case involving a Georgetown University scholar who was targeted for deportation last year after a government artificial intelligence tool flagged his social media posts as too pro-Palestinian.
The father of Flight 93 hero Todd Beamer, who helped overtake terrorist hijackers, narrated a dramatic new campaign ad slamming Michigan Democratic Senate candidate Abdul El-Sayed over his association with Hasan Piker, who said America "deserved" the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks that killed nearly 3,000 people.
News reports described a “civil war” dividing two factions of Trump supporters last week. Entrepreneurs Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy’s support for legal visas for highly skilled workers, which the technology sector has long depended upon, put them into conflict with failed congressional candidate Laura Loomer, who decried recipients of such visas as “third-world invaders.” Late […]
WASHINGTON — With parents James and Maryan McCormick looking on from the Senate gallery, Sen. David McCormick (R-PA) took the oath of office with the family Bible on Friday as Pennsylvania’s junior U.S. senator. Flanked by his wife, Dina Powell, McCormick told the Washington Examiner how grateful he was and stressed his commitment to upholding […]
You may not feel the financial tremors, but cracks are forming in the foundation of the world’s economies, which are built on the U.S. dollar — the world’s reserve currency. America’s rapidly growing debt burden threatens both the world economy and our own, which will crumble if we do nothing. However, decisive action can prevent […]
The Pentagon’s acquisition process is broken, and the nation may be running out of time to fix it. Former Rep. Mike Gallagher (R-WI) recently warned that the United States “has two years to prevent World War III” with China. Gallagher noted that Pete Hegseth, President-elect Donald Trump’s nominee for defense secretary, will confront “a deteriorating balance of […]
What began as a year of resilience for Iran ended with the tide unmistakably turned against the Islamic Republic. Its Axis of Resistance is shattered, its currency is in freefall, its major cities face crippling power outages and natural gas shortages, and the shadow of maximum pressure looms large over the regime. For the Trump […]
Rep. Nancy Mace (R-SC) has been on a mission lately, authoring numerous bills to protect women and girls. In November 2024, she introduced a resolution to maintain single-sex bathrooms at the U.S. Capitol. Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) later made that the official policy of the House, and Mace later introduced legislation to maintain single-sex bathrooms and locker rooms on […]
Last month’s rapid collapse and fall of Syria’s Assad dynasty surprised the world, starting with Bashar Assad himself. Led by the radical Islamist group Hayat Tahrir al Sham and likely galvanized by Israel’s mauling of Hamas and Hezbollah, the rebel victory represents Iran’s third catastrophic defeat in trying to implement its anti-Israel “ring of fire” strategy. […]
“What terrifies me is if ISIS were to detonate a nuclear device and kill 50 million Americans. Imagine the backlash against peaceful Muslims?” This 2016 tweet from the late comedian Norm Macdonald isn’t just a perfect example of his trademark dry wit. No, it was a deeply prophetic analysis of what the West is becoming: […]
Mao Zedong of China was only partly right when he said that “political power grows out of the barrel of a gun.” He should have added that true national power depends on a strong economy to provide the military with the resources necessary to defeat deadly adversaries. Arguably, Gen. Ulysses Grant was the first modern […]
An Iranian nuclear weapon would be a game-changer in the Middle East. Should the Islamic Republic of Iran acquire nuclear weapons, at a minimum, Iranian leaders would feel so secure behind their own nuclear deterrent that they could export terrorism without fear of retaliation. Iranian assassins could murder Americans worldwide, and even the most hawkish […]
FBI Director J. Edgar Hoover, the attorney general, and President Franklin D. Roosevelt met to discuss expanding the FBI’s domestic surveillance in 1938. They agreed this should proceed “with the utmost degree of secrecy” to avoid public criticism or objections “by either ill-informed persons or individuals having some ulterior motive.” In fact, they decided against […]
As soon as President-elect Donald Trump takes office, he should reverse President Joe Biden’s wrongheaded and arguably illegal decision to block the sale of U.S. Steel to Nippon Steel of Japan. Biden made the long-anticipated decision on Jan. 3, citing spurious “national security” concerns. During the presidential campaign, Trump also said he opposed the sale to Nippon […]
If you’re familiar with the Broken Windows theory of policing, you may have learned of it, perhaps indirectly, from Malcolm Gladwell’s bestseller “The Tipping...
