NAACP President Derrick Johnson bashed the Navy Friday following reports that it planned to rename an aircraft carrier, named after a Black WWII war hero, and had considered President Trump's name as a replacement. Johnson wrote in a social media post that the alleged talks surrounding the USS Doris Miller's name are “a slap in...
Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine) pushed the Trump administration to “consider the negative impact" that engaging in a tariff war with Canada may have on American constituents, straying away from some of her GOP peers. Republican lawmakers were split Saturday after negotiations between Canada and the U.S. fell through, causing the White House to impose a...
President Trump is attempting to block the BBC's efforts to subpoena his family members for the channel's defense in his ongoing $10 million defamation lawsuit. In Saturday court filings, Trump's lawyers wrote that the British broadcaster's attempts to subpoena the president's children — Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner — were “cynical” and a...
The Democratic National Convention in Chicago is the Democratic Party’s opportunity to lay out a vision for the country over the next four (or eight) years. But the DNC will come and go and leave behind a city decimated by Democratic policies for decades, an unintentional warning of how the country could end up looking […]
A recent hacking and leak campaign targeting Donald Trump‘s presidential campaign originated in Iran.

Let me take you back to another Aug. 15 so as to put to bed a meme prevalent on the Right today — namely, the idea that the only way to win politically is to be mean and to be willing to go low against opponents. The meme is claptrap. When then-President Ronald Reagan approached […]
Kamala Harris, the vice president of the United States and Democratic nominee for president, thinks rural voters are too dumb to get IDs. More specifically, she believes that rural voters aren’t able to obtain copies of their IDs because they are hicks who live too far from the civilized world — a civilized world that […]
The so-called “reintroduction” of Vice President Kamala Harris notwithstanding, Americans should be frightened by the prospect of a Harris presidency. From coast to coast, rather than a career of praiseworthy accomplishments for the United States, Harris’s extreme liberalism has instead produced a long trail of human suffering in her wake. In California, where her reckless policies and poor judgment left […]
Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) signed SB 1084 into law in May, which made Florida the first state to effectively ban cultivated meat products from development and consumption. Alabama was quick to follow with its own copycat legislation outlawing “the manufacture, sale, or distribution of food products made from cultured animal cells.” But other states thinking about similar bans, including Tennessee […]
During a brief presser Wednesday, a reporter asked President Joe Biden about inflation. The president responded, “I told you we’re going to have a soft landing, we’re going to have a soft landing. My policies are working. Start writing that way, OK?” There is a lot to unpack from that brief exchange. Let’s start with Biden’s […]
Now that Vice President Kamala Harris has voiced her copy of former President Donald Trump’s “no tax on tips” proposal, tax-cut talk colors much of the media attention.
