There is no end to the shutdown without ICE & CBP funding

While the Senate must clear a much more arduous 60-vote threshold to pass appropriations than the simple majority enjoyed by the House, there’s one practical reality that matters more than the messy math of ending what is now the longest government shutdown in the nation’s history. That is, despite last year’s One Big Beautiful Bill […]

Trump’s chance to reestablish Justice Department credibility after Pam Bondi fired

Former Attorney General Pam Bondi, fired by President Donald Trump, oversaw the largest stain on the administration: the Epstein files.

Bondi’s firing provides Trump with an opportunity to restore the credibility lost […]

Artemis — huntress of new frontiers

I was one of millions of children who stayed up late on July 20, 1969, to see Neil Armstrong become the first man to walk on the moon. My family sat in our darkened apartment on a sofa and on the floor to watch the great moment on TV. We felt we were part of […]

Trump rightly overrides California’s pipeline blockade

California’s energy crisis should concern policymakers at both the state and federal levels, but so far only one side appears to be taking it seriously. For more than two years, California officials blocked Sable’s offshore drilling operation from bringing its product to market. By invoking emergency powers, President Donald Trump cut through that regulatory blockade, […]

Brandon Johnson’s pro-criminal attitude is killing Chicago

Mayor Brandon Johnson’s pro-criminal worldview continues to make Chicago worse for everyone but the criminals his policies and rhetoric protect and enable. Shootings in Chicago this past February were up 13% compared to February of 2025, and March saw a 15% rise compared to March 2025. The increase in homicides is even greater, with an 18% increase […]

Three oral argument exchanges show why Trump will lose the birthright citizenship case

It is not surprising that the three liberal justices on the Supreme Court were antagonistic toward President Donald Trump’s Solicitor General John Sauer during oral argument in Trump v. Barbara on Wednesday, nor were some of the softballs tossed Sauer’s way by Justices Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and Brett Kavanaugh. But there were three key […]

The KIDS Act treats everyone like a kid

Our federal congressional representatives struggle to keep up with email. You’d think putting them in charge of regulating mobile gaming would be widely recognized as a ludicrous idea.

UN resolution about slave trade is an effort to demonize white people

Slavery is a horrific institution that has plagued human civilization for thousands of years. However, don’t tell this to the United Nations, for the intergovernmental agency created as a response to World War II, seems to think that the institution of slavery was only prevalent between the 15th and 18th centuries in trans-Atlantic form. On […]

Insurers are choking rural hospitals and undermining healthcare access

In many parts of the country, especially rural America, a hospital is not simply a healthcare facility. It is critical infrastructure. It is where trauma care begins, where babies are delivered, and where chronic conditions are managed. When a community hospital becomes financially unstable, the consequences extend far beyond its walls. Local economies suffer. Emergency […]

The Gaza genocide lie has been debunked by an unlikely source

The ubiquitous and outrageous lie that Israel committed a “genocide” in Gaza has been further debunked, inadvertently, by Hamas itself. The Israelis have prosecuted an aggressive yet defensive war after their territory was breached by hordes of bloodthirsty terrorists on Oct. 7, 2023. The barbarian invaders slaughtered nearly 1,200 people during the atrocity, including dozens […]
