President Trump announced Saturday he approved new fuel economy standards that eliminate an electric vehicle (EV) mandate introduced under the Biden administration. The 2024 EV mandate aimed to facilitate the transition from gas-powered to EVs by setting new pollution standards for automakers' vehicle fleets, which were intentionally difficult to meet without introducing new electric or...
Mideast beat: Protesters Prove Zionism’s Point The “demonstrators roiling our campuses and cities” are “making a powerful case for Zionism,” asserts Gerard Leval at...
PITTSBURGH — Members of the Pittsburgh Jewish community in the city’s Squirrel Hill neighborhood woke up Monday morning to more vandalism and threats, as if in a recurring nightmare. Just six years ago, the worst massacre of Jews in the United States happened at the Tree of Life Synagogue, which claimed the lives of 11 […]
President Joe Biden’s foreign policy has been littered with disgraceful decisions that help authoritarians and terrorists alike. You can look to Venezuela for the latest example. Biden’s administration cut a deal with Venezuela’s socialist dictator, President Nicholas Maduro, to lift U.S. sanctions on Venezuelan oil in exchange for the promise that Maduro would hold a […]
The United States is an imperfect, sometimes unpredictable international partner. Too many Americans know and care to know too little about the rest of the world. But the U.S. is the first great power in human history to put the advance of human freedom before the extraction of wealth from other nations. Its flaws aside, […]
Amid an entertainment landscape oversaturated with generic superhero films, Amazon Prime’s The Boys quickly set itself apart as a sharp satire not just of the Marvel fad but of society and media more broadly. The show’s fourth season, however, veers off into a cartoonish screed aimed at lambasting right-wing caricatures, losing much of the balance […]
It is not a coincidence that the Kamala Harris campaign chose to push a years-old video of Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) calling the leadership of the Democratic Party “a bunch of childless cat ladies” the day after she secured enough delegates to be her party’s presidential nominee. What better way to change the subject from […]
The Civil War-ending Battle of Gettysburg recently marked its 161st anniversary. Citizens of different states taking up arms against one another seems like an impossibility in the modern age. Yet if subversive lawsuits against energy companies are pursued to their natural end, history may repeat itself. Right now, the battle is in the court system. Nineteen […]
On my way to dinner on Saturday, I drove past Secretary of State Antony Blinken’s house on the Virginia bank of the Potomac River. Police had just removed an anti-Israel, pro-Palestinian protest encampment that had turned the road into a mess of rags and flags and tents since January. Now, seven police cruisers were parked […]
There has been a vigorous debate in the media over the last week about whether Vice President Kamala Harris was the “border czar.” More important than her title, Harris failed to address the causes of migration from Central America while spouting empty rhetoric. This public posturing was seen in Harris’s visit to El Paso in […]
This week’s Liberal Media Scream features the latest spin from CNN that President Joe Biden’s decision to drop out of his reelection race guarantees the end of President Donald Trump too. Fareed Zakaria offered this Sunday on his “My Take” commentary: “The final legacy of Biden is that he has returned the presidency to an […]
During the Cold War, Republicans embraced foreign policy consensus. They recognized the Soviet Union was evil. They, without question, supported Israel’s security against the existential threats the world’s only Jewish state faced. Successive Republican leaders, alongside many Democratic colleagues, understood that the world was safest, freest, and most prosperous when America led. They also recognized […]
