President Trump warned Monday that anyone vandalizing monuments in Washington faces a ten-year prison sentence for the destruction or attempted destruction of federal property.
Patriotism is a good thing, and those in the Trump administration have long embraced its symbolic nature during both terms. Moreover, unlike previous Republican presidents and other GOP politicians, President Donald Trump has realized the value of public relations and the importance of political messaging that appeals to the masses. It is a strategy the […]
A new NBC News poll reveals a crisis of confidence for the Democratic Party, with the public now viewing it more negatively than the very institutions the party frequently attacks. Most notably, the survey found that voters hold a more positive view of Immigration and Customs Enforcement than they do of the current Democratic platform. […]
It’s often joked that if President Donald Trump cured cancer, Democrats would find a way to protest. Lately, that doesn’t seem so far from the truth. Whether it’s cutting taxes that kneecap the economy or protecting the southern border, Democrats have broadly decided on a policy of opposing everything Trump does. We saw it during the State of the Union address when Trump challenged members of Congress to stand if they agreed with a simple statement: Government’s primary duty is to protect American citizens, not […]
Britain’s Labour government is defining Islamophobia in law. Not, it rushes to assure everyone, that there will be the slightest risk to free speech. All it is doing is codifying guidelines. Well, it took all of 45 minutes after the publication of the new definition for an MP to demand that it be used to […]
Readers may be familiar with the humiliating saga of California’s bullet train project, which was successfully sold in 2008 as a project to connect Los Angeles and San Francisco via high-speed rail. Voters narrowly approved the plan on the same day Barack Obama was first elected president. Its total projected budget was approximately $33 billion, spanning […]
Proponents of legalized physician-assisted suicide often couch their arguments in the verbiage of pain and dignity. They say that people with terminal and agonizing conditions should be offered the option of “death with dignity” on their own terms. While there are counterpoints against this policy, free people tend to gravitate toward ideas that feature personal […]
Congressional enactment of the most-favored nation drug pricing policy urged by President Donald Trump in his State of the Union message would gravely harm American innovation, competitiveness, and national security in the emerging pharmaceutical technology race with China by crippling the market incentive system that has reliably propelled U.S. global leadership in this vital sector for decades. […]
“College is a scam,” the finance bros on Twitter will tell you. The Return on Investment is weak, hustle accounts proclaim. “It is very weird that we’re convinced that the only way to get educated is through an official institution when we can access information on our own,” popular podcaster Joe Rogan argues, saying that […]
One moment, you’re living your best life, shouting anti-racist platitudes into a bullhorn outside Gracie Mansion in your sensible coat, and the next, someone else living his best life climbs over you and throws a bomb at the police. This is what happened to Walter Masterson as he exercised his constitutional right to signal his […]
It’s an iconic line from the golden era of The Simpsons, but a new academic study shows there is a lot of truth to it. In season 3 episode 21 of The Simpsons, Krusty the Clown’s homicidal sidekick Sideshow Bob has been yet again released from prison, this time after proving to authorities he has […]
New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s latest outrage, with his wife Rama Duwaji, was hosting terrorist sympathizer Mahmoud Khalil for dinner at Gracie Mansion, the official mayoral residence. Mamdani posted a picture of them breaking their Ramadan fast on the anniversary of Khalil’s detention by federal immigration officers. Khalil faces deportation for lying on his green […]
CNN went from writing headlines to making headlines this week with a now-deleted social media post about the attempted ISIS bombing in New York City that was shockingly dishonest even for the outlet’s low standards. Two Islamists tried to slaughter a group of protesters worried about Islamic terrorism outside Gracie Mansion with homemade explosives. Shouting […]
When Iranian drones struck an airport terminal in Azerbaijan’s Nakhchivan exclave last Thursday, injuring at least two civilians and narrowly missing a school, Tehran accomplished something remarkable: it threatened the one neighbor that had studiously avoided the escalating conflict between Iran and the West. The attack was strategically senseless. French intelligence claims that Baku explicitly […]
Imagine for a moment that you are the governor of a failing state. Would you try to improve the state by repealing failing policies, or would you spend taxpayer money on an ad campaign to try to improve your national image without helping the residents of your state? If you chose the second option, you […]
