Chief Justice John Roberts said Wednesday that the Constitution remains a sturdy pillar for the country, a message that comes after a tumultuous year in the nation's judicial system with pivotal Supreme Court decisions on the horizon.
The Jan. 6., 2021 riot at the U.S. Capitol "does not happen" without Donald Trump, former special counsel Jack Smith told lawmakers earlier this month in characterizing the Republican president as the "most culpable and most responsible person" in the criminal conspiracy to overturn the results of the 2020 election.
After a setback at the Supreme Court, President Trump said Wednesday he is abandoning his efforts -- for now -- to deploy National Guard troops in Chicago, Los Angeles and Portland, Oregon, despite his belief that their presence brought down crime.

Most of the unhinged takes in the wake of the highest-profile political assassination in the United States since 1968 have come, unsurprisingly, from the Left. Conservatives mourned, prayed, and attended vigils instead of rioting and looting like their political opponents. There were no calls for retaliatory assassinations or any form of political violence as millions of leftists […]
President Donald Trump promised to protect free speech as president. His record is very mixed on that count. Still, Trump’s attorney general, Pam Bondi, apparently doesn’t even understand basic facts about the First Amendment. Indeed, Bondi signaled her intent to violate it. During a podcast interview this week, Bondi spoke about the aftermath of the […]
Feelings are running high in the Trump administration after the murder of conservative activist Charlie Kirk, so, understandably, officeholders such as Attorney General Pam Bondi want to do everything they can to ensure such an assassination never happens again. But her recent comments on imminent action against hate speech, threats of violence, and civil rights […]
In the aftermath of Charlie Kirk‘s assassination, one thing is clear: We need a “Kirk Commission.” Some will instantly reject the idea because of the dismal failure of the Warren Commission to settle any questions around the assassination of President John F. Kennedy in 1973. Besides, naysayers will note, though the presumption of innocence remains, most of […]
Russian officials, the Kremlin’s state news outlet and Chinese bots pounced to manipulate Americans’ heightened emotions as a way to incite further domestic conflict.
