Mayor Zohran Mamdani highlights major policy wins in his first 100 days, crediting a democratic socialist agenda as Bernie Sanders praises the approach.
The Trump administration is being criticized for announcing the withdrawal of a combat brigade of the U.S. Army’s 101st Air Assault Division from NATO member Romania. The Biden administration deployed these forces to Ukraine-bordering Romania following Russia’s February 2022 invasion of Ukraine. If Russian forces were surging across the Dnieper River and approaching Romanian borders, […]
Some Democratic politicians and groups have come to the conclusion that Democrats should simply pretend to be more moderate than they are to win back voters. It isn’t going to work because voters can see exactly what Democrats believe in the policies they support. A poll from the “center-left” group Welcome found that the share of voters […]
THE MAN WHO STOOD TO MAKE MILLIONS IF BIDEN WON IN 2024. The House Oversight Committee has just released a report on its investigation into “the circumstances surrounding President Joe Biden’s diminishing mental and physical capabilities and the implications of that decline.” In the report, Chairman James Comer (R-KY) focuses not just on the Biden White […]
Since 1989, October has been recognized as Italian American Heritage and Culture Month in the U.S., stemming from a proclamation issued by President George Bush. The month was established to “celebrate the rich ethnic heritage of Italian-Americans and the many contributions they have made to American culture.” Yet, despite this tradition, now in its fourth […]
The term “antisemitism” is anesthetized, imprecise, and historically obtuse jargon that is meant to obscure evil beliefs. Regrettably, I’ve been using the term to describe hatred toward Jews for decades. For one thing, the term was coined by Jew-baiting German journalist Wilhelm Marr in 1879 to give the age-old bigotry a modern pseudoscientific framing. Outbursts […]
Federal rules and regulations cost the U.S. economy more than $3 trillion each year and dictate nearly every aspect of Americans’ lives — from the food they can eat to the types of cars they can drive. But while Americans can vote out their representatives in Congress for enacting harmful legislation, there is no similar accountability […]
President Donald Trump’s visit to Asia and expected meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the APEC Summit in South Korea on Thursday will be pivotal. While trade and rare-earth exports will dominate headlines, the deeper contest is ideological: democracy versus authoritarianism, conscience versus control. At the center of this struggle is Taiwan, the flashpoint […]
Despite the continued suspension of the U.S. Refugee Admissions Program, the State Department appears to have begun a quiet effort to move a limited number of Afghans with USRAP cases out of Pakistan. Many Afghan USRAP applicants fled to Pakistan following the Taliban’s takeover of Afghanistan, both to remain safe amid the Taliban’s reprisal campaign and because […]
What happened to the Whigs in the 1850s? And will the same thing happen to today’s Democrats? After the Federalist Party of Alexander Hamilton and John Adams collapsed in the aftermath of the War of 1812, the Whigs arose to replace them as the alternative to the Democratic Party that took its nascent form around […]
President Donald Trump makes Democrats behave unreasonably and fly into overblown rhetoric. That talent, if it can be called such, has been on display since Trump’s decision and fast action to knock down the East Wing of the White House and build a modern ballroom in its place. Former first lady Hillary Clinton accused Trump […]
The Democratic Socialists of America just wrapped up a Hajj to their Mecca: Havana, a city so buried in detritus after decades of communism that it’s a wonder why any politician would want to be associated with it. Comparing photos of the Cuban capital today with those from the 1950s is an anti-socialist campaign ad that writes […]
