When Luis Manuel Aviles was arrested by immigration authorities, his son was entering his ninth month on the USS Abraham Lincoln with the Navy - a vessel that set a U.S. military record for uninterrupted time at sea, stirring concerns about supply shortages and deteriorating mental health among soldiers.
A sailor onboard the USS Abraham Lincoln on Saturday said his father was detained by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Joshua Aviles has spent roughly nine months deployed at sea due to the Iran war amid reported shortages of clean water, food and supplies. “I’ve been deployed for over nine months, out at sea in...
California’s homeless woes stem from the fact that most Democrats don’t want to clear homeless encampments. That includes Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. Bass and other Los Angeles Democrats oppose Gov. Gavin Newsom’s (D-CA) order for cities and localities to clear homeless encampments. Bass said that she doesn’t think clearing homeless encampments “is ultimately a […]
The feminist agenda claims to be about women’s empowerment, but not when it comes to women who embrace traditional gender roles. The “trad wives” phenomenon on social media proves just that. The trend features women on social media who have embraced a more traditional gender role, which includes homemaking and child-rearing. And as the trend […]
President Joe Biden’s proposed Supreme Court-related “reforms” are part of a broader, unseemly attack on judicial independence, but conservatives should welcome one of those initiatives anyway. Indeed, everyone should support a constitutional amendment, as Biden suggests, to relimit presidential immunity. I firmly believe the July 1 high court decision in Trump v. United States, which […]
Long before former prosecutor Kamala Harris made “freedom” the theme of her campaign, Democrat Pete Buttigieg would wax philosophical on the matter. “’Freedom’ means a lot to conservatives,” Buttigieg liked to say, “but they have such a narrow sense of what it means.” For Buttigieg, freedom was best understood as a positive, not merely a […]
Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) is receiving criticism for a commonsense comment he made a few years ago. The Republican vice presidential nominee correctly said childless people should pay more in taxes than parents who make the same amount of money. Yet, Vice President Kamala Harris’s campaign is attacking Vance for this innocuous stance. “JD Vance’s attacks on childless Americans is even […]
The Israel Defense Forces targeted a senior Lebanese Hezbollah leader in Beirut on Tuesday. Israel says that the missile strike constitutes retaliation for a Hezbollah rocket attack that killed 12 Israeli children on Saturday. The Israeli action appears clever in its strategic calculation. I say that for two reasons. First, it’s because the strike seems […]
In today’s episode of “Democrats defend unadulterated evil,” vice presidential hopeful and Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz told liberals, “Don’t ever shy away from our progressive values. One person’s socialism is another person’s neighborliness.” Going full socialist is a bizarre choice if Walz’s mission is to join the Harris ticket. Vice President Kamala Harris was the most liberal member of […]
The proposed Supreme Court power grab from President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris is a bigger threat to democracy than the Jan. 6 “insurrection” ever was. Biden’s demand for Supreme Court “reforms” stems from Democrats losing judicial nomination battles and being unable to impose their unconstitutional policies on the country. Biden even whined […]
Hand it to Vice President Kamala Harris: After President Joe Biden unceremoniously ended his quest for a second term, within just a couple of days, Harris not only reinvented herself, but also shut down any potential challengers for the nomination. Poor Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA). He saw the writing on the wall about Biden’s second […]
Since he descended that escalator in 2015, former President Donald Trump has become a singularly powerful force in conservative politics. Despite almost all predictions, he prevailed in the 2016 presidential election and became the leader of a Republican Party that, in many ways, was not ready for him. His unparalleled popularity on the Right means […]
Republican attacks on Vice President Kamala Harris’s “radical” record have already been so successful that Harris is racing to flip-flop on everything she used to say she believes. According to the New York Times, just this week, the Harris campaign, but not Harris herself, said she no longer supports a ban on fracking, no longer […]
MAGA Republicans have been constantly demonized in this country’s recent political discourse. Democratic politicians have regularly labeled the group as a threat to democracy. It is a daily part of their rhetoric. Yet, a pragmatic analysis of recent events will show that is not true. While Democrats like to habitually bring up the Jan. 6, […]
