Conservative podcaster Tucker Carlson said Friday that President Trump should be removed from office if he is considering using nuclear weapons first, saying even entertaining the possibility should disqualify a president from serving. “The second any president actively considers the first use of nuclear weapons, that person should be removed from office immediately, because that’s...
Michigan Democratic Senate nominee Abdul El-Sayed apologized Saturday for comments he made following an attack on a Detroit-area synagogue earlier this year, as he seeks to ease concerns among Jewish voters ahead of the November election. “I made a mistake,” El-Sayed said during an appearance before the Michigan Democratic Jewish Caucus at the state party’s...
The Democratic Party’s shameless weaponization of the criminal justice system against its political opponents continued unabated on Thursday as talk show host Steve Bannon, a vocal supporter of former President Donald Trump, was ordered to report to prison. A federal judge ruled on Thursday that Bannon, who hosts the podcast show War Room, must report […]
It is an anathema in Western nations for a democratically elected leader to use monarchical language to describe himself, unless of course that person is self-described “philosopher king” Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador. On Saturday, Bukele was sworn in for a second term in office after winning a landslide reelection victory in February […]
Anti-Israel virtue signaling is usually reserved for know-nothing college students who may or may not be smart enough to realize how antisemitic their movement is. Sometimes, though, even whole countries find out how virtue signaling can backfire. Ireland, Norway, and Spain all decided to reward Hamas’s massacre of 1,200 Israeli civilians and promise to continue […]
Faced with a string of controversies stemming from President Joe Biden‘s son, the Biden family has shown it seemingly has more in common with HBO’s The Sopranos than the ordinary, regular, everyday American family. From Hunter Biden’s indiscretions with drugs and prostitutes to accusations of money laundering to lucrative appointments on companies in exchange for […]
Iran has been censured by the international body for failing to cooperate with international oversight. The United Nations‘s International Atomic Energy Agency rebuked Iran on a vote of 20-2 for advances in its nuclear program, with 12 other members abstaining.

Maryland Republicans did something unusual recently. In nominating former Republican Gov. Larry Hogan for the Senate, they selected a candidate for federal office with a chance to win. Maryland, a liberal state with a large population of government employees, has not voted for a Republican for president since 1988. And Maryland has not had a […]
The first thing to say about the Democratic lawfare campaign against former President Donald Trump is that it has been a smashing success.

Mike Rowe has made a living from telling stories. And not just in Dirty Jobs, the TV show that made him famous. He has a podcast, The Way I Heard It, a book with the same title, and a TV show called The Story Behind the Story, all dedicated to telling interesting historical tales with […]
Earlier this week, President Joe Biden signed an executive order to signal he is interested in doing something to address the crisis at the southern border. But it is too little, too late. Prior to his realization that the porous southern border is a top concern in voters’ minds, Biden could not be bothered to discuss the national security […]
Good people should resist schadenfreude. Deriving pleasure from the anguish of others is no virtue. So if we feel glee in observing that this past week has not been kind to Ibram X. Kendi, we must remember that we are celebrating the defeat of his ideas, not the man himself. Kendi has had a bad past seven […]
So far, June has been the month of crossing “red lines” for the Biden administration. To start, the administration has given Ukraine permission to use American weaponry to strike Russian military forces in areas of Russia near the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv. It’s an escalation that deserves concern. Open conflict between nuclear powers has the […]
The unprecedented criminal trial of a former and possibly future president may have ended in the press with a bang. But in the polls, Donald Trump’s criminal conviction of 34 counts related to hush money payments has landed with a thud. Despite a media-constructed narrative that President Joe Biden was on the cusp of a […]
The June 2022 Supreme Court decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization has only increased the intensity surrounding the abortion debate. The ruling did not create a life-affirming culture overnight. But this was not the goal. Righting a legal and moral wrong was necessary. The abortion question is now in the hands of state […]
Great live performances reveal things in music that hide within the recorded version: You aren’t washing dishes at a concert.

Now that it’s music festival season, as a resident of Brooklyn, the […]
