Hegseth teases removal of U.S. troops from Europe to bolster military presence in Latin America

Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth indicated on Saturday that the U.S. could shift military resources from Europe to Central and South America to bolster the Pentagon's efforts to combat drug trafficking in the hemisphere.

AI data center backlash is aimed at the wrong target

Artificial intelligence and the data centers that power it have rapidly become one of the defining policy debates in Texas and America going into the midterm elections. Earlier this month, Texas Gov. Greg Abbott (R-TX) called for prohibiting AI data centers in rural neighborhoods, reflecting just how quickly the issue has moved from industry circles […]

Blatant Medicaid fraud in Queens that AG Letitia James can’t bother to notice

Over the past three years, such New York senior centers have generated $2.5 billion in billings, with $2.1 billion of that coming from Flushing.

Socialistic programs caused the affordability crisis. The DSA wants to double down

There is no doubt that Americans face affordability issues. Capitalizing upon them, especially in blue states, the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA) have been peddling their prescriptions for cure, which are comprehensive socialist “solutions.” These solutions require more government, more taxation, and unprecedented authoritarian force. Thus, more socialism and more autocracy are increasingly popular solutions […]

The ‘price gouging’ myth that can wreck the grid — and your bills

The cost of electricity has become a hot-button issue in the 2026 election, and politicians have pointed their fingers at any number of culprits to avoid responsibility. Some progressive activists contend that grid investments by utility companies are primarily motivated by a desire to increase profits rather than to serve customers. However, that narrative ignores […]

The deceptive advertisements masking drug dangers

Advertisements for personalized GLP-1 weight-loss drugs are now as pervasive as they are dangerous. There’s already a robust national debate about direct-to-consumer pharmaceutical advertising. But regardless of where you fall in that debate, everyone can agree: Ads that fail to follow even basic disclosure rules — and target vulnerable people with misleading health claims — […]

Lindsey Graham, politician and Churchillian

Still boyish, energetic, enthusiastic, Lindsey Graham died suddenly last weekend at the age of 71. Once upon a time, death at such an age was not unexpected. The two Presidents Roosevelt died aged 60 and 63, and in the summer of 1949, two Supreme Court justices in their 50s died of heart attacks.  But advances […]

Your employer health plan is dying — one bill could save it

Employer-sponsored health coverage, long the gold standard in American healthcare, is imploding. This once-popular and affordable insurance is becoming increasingly out of reach as spiraling costs force employers to drop plans and employees to opt out. Congress is quietly working in bipartisan fashion to pass healthcare legislation that can restore this crucial coverage if stronger […]

Who’s really paying to sue America? We have no idea — and that’s the point

President Donald Trump has spent years warning Americans that our institutions have been weaponized against ordinary citizens and political opponents. Congress has investigated it. Americans have watched it unfold. But there is one part of that system that still operates almost entirely in the shadows. Lawsuits are targeting American energy development and high-tech manufacturing capacity, […]

They went after Trump under an obscure clause. What about lawmakers with actual terrorist ties?

State election officials tried to erase President Donald Trump from the 2024 ballot using a clause of the Constitution most people had never heard of before that fight. Section 3 of the 14th Amendment bars anyone who swore an oath to the Constitution and then engaged in insurrection or rebellion from holding office again. Colorado’s […]

While NAEP scores hit 20-year lows, teachers’ unions were debating ethical veganism

For me, it was my 10-year old’s lesson on “pansexuality” — a topic that I, a late millennial mother, couldn’t define. I was sitting at my kitchen counter building Defending Education, an organization I founded to expose the politicization of education and improve learning outcomes. I launched it in part because my intelligent, curious children […]

How one leak is tearing Iran apart from the inside

On Monday, the New York Times reported that Israel spent years trying to recruit former Iranian President Mahmoud Ahmadinejad — through secret meetings in Budapest, financed travel, a personal sit-down with the Mossad chief, and a failed plan to extract him from Tehran on the first day of the war — and install him as the […]

I’m a gay Republican in Wyoming. My own party tried to destroy me for it

Wyoming is home for me. I’m a fourth-generation Wyomingite from Casper, and I’ve spent my whole life helping the people of this state, veterans and ranchers, first responders and teachers, secure a retirement they can count on. I know this state. I love this state. And since I started this run for Congress, I’ve come […]

NYC’s homeless camp chaos puts all of New York — and Mamdani’s ‘big plans’ — in danger

The homeless encampment spreading along Manhattan’s West Side is a warning: Under Zohran Mamdani, this city has no interest in protecting you, your business...

Rubio targets the ICC, as he should

The State Department has launched a campaign to dismantle the International Criminal Court. The effort is welcome. The ICC is a clear and present danger to U.S. citizens and the American way of life. On Monday, the State Department announced a “sweeping campaign” to dismantle the threat the ICC poses to national sovereignty. Secretary of […]
