President Trump on Sunday threatened Iran with new attacks if it doesn't restrain Hezbollah in Lebanon or keep the Strait of Hormuz open as Vice President J.D. Vance tries to solidify a lasting deal with Iranian officials during talks in Switzerland.
THE INSANE GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN. On March 1, an immigrant from Senegal, apparently angry over the U.S.-Israeli attack on Iran, donned a T-shirt that said “Property of Allah,” grabbed a Koran, a pistol, and a semi-automatic rifle, and headed toward a popular nightlife area in Austin, Texas. There, he shot and killed three people and wounded 14 others […]
Do you remember when Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers and Border Patrol agents shot and killed two liberal activists in Minneapolis, and it was supposed to be the worst human rights abuse in American history? Because celebrities and liberal media seemingly don’t remember. They allow themselves to be dragged from one insincere outrage cycle to […]

It […]

One of the most important priorities for our representatives in the House and Senate is fairly straightforward. They are elected to deliver federal dollars to their districts and states through infrastructure projects, grants, and funding for local initiatives. The second priority is speedy and thorough constituent services, better known as casework. This essential service helps […]
President Donald Trump has regularly criticized legacy media for its left-wing biases and agenda-driven reporting. He’s rightfully accused them of dishonesty and manipulating stories that advance specific Democratic narratives instead of telling the truth to the people. An example of these deceptions is the recent legacy media coverage of Operation Epic Fury. Manipulated stories, omitted […]
In Washington, D.C., policy circles, Iraq’s Popular Mobilization Forces are often described as a legitimate national force that emerged in 2014 to fight the Islamic State. Many policymakers view the PMF as a formal component of Iraq’s security apparatus, an institution that gained legitimacy through religious authority, parliamentary legislation, and its role in defeating ISIS.
