Rep. Thomas Massie joined Democrats opposing President Donald Trump's Iran strikes, citing lack of congressional approval for military action against Iranian targets.
As U.S. and Israeli strikes target Iran's top leaders, the question of succession looms large with no clear heir apparent to lead the Islamic Republic.
As Democrats continue to demonize and vilify the nation’s law enforcement officers, the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers keep protecting communities from violent criminal illegal immigrants. Once again, DHS and ICE collaborated to remove some of the “worst of the worst” illegally residing in the United States. While Democrats, and […]
The New York Times Magazine published an article last week about the lesser-discussed ways selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors, such as fluoxetine and paroxetine, which are frequently prescribed to treat depression and anxiety, affect adolescents‘ sexual development.

DNIPRO, UKRAINE — Volodymir awoke Monday night just before midnight to an air raid alert. These alerts happen every night in this city of one million in the eastern half of Ukraine, and so residents don’t always rush to bomb shelters, even when it’s just in the basement.

Affordability has become an integral part of the U.S. political lexicon in recent weeks. It’s an issue […]
President Donald Trump rightly feted Saudi Arabia’s crown prince and de facto ruler, Mohammed bin Salman, at the White House on Tuesday. Indeed, via an F-15 and F-35 fighter jet overflight, Trump also threw out a red carpet in the sky above Washington, D.C. The pageantry has upset human rights activists and many in the […]

Anti-corruption bodies spent more than a year monitoring state energy contracts, gathering recordings, and tracking financial flows. Their findings point to an organized scheme inside Energoatom, the state nuclear operator, involving kickbacks on major contracts and the diversion of funds, which investigators estimate […]
President Donald Trump is now following California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s playbook of making things more expensive for people and then trying to give away taxpayer money to make it all better.

KANAWHA COUNTY, West Virginia — Steve Lipscomb was a son, a father, a husband, a Marine, a man of faith, and a coal miner. Ten days ago, Lipscomb and his crew encountered an unknown pocket of water when a “sudden and substantial” flood sent millions of gallons into the Rolling Thunder Mine. Lipscomb lived up […]
President Donald Trump’s stark reversal on releasing Justice Department files related to Jeffrey Epstein is a positive step. What these files mean for Trump, politically, is unclear. Yet, considering the president’s ardent insistence until now that the files remain sealed, their impact is unlikely to be positive. And if so, Trump may well seek to […]
