Europeans would be better off if they had listened to Trump

EUROPEANS WOULD BE BETTER OFF IF THEY HAD LISTENED TO TRUMP. President Donald Trump is back in the United States, tending to urgent political matters, including the upcoming midterm elections. But as usual, when he travels to Europe, Trump leaves a lot of turbulence in his wake. At the World Economic Forum in Davos, many European […]

You don’t have to look far to see a snow storm bringing out our best

PITTSBURGH — A little more than 75 years ago, my father and a handful of friends, all sons of Italian immigrants, hitched up their sleds and rode them from the top of the city of Pittsburgh’s Summer Hill neighborhood slopes onto East Street during what was later called the Great Appalachian Storm. That superstorm on […]

Cruz returns to Texas ahead of winter storm after travel backlash

Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) said Friday he is back in the Lone Star State after a viral photo showed him on a plane as the state prepared for a massive winter storm. “I’ve returned home from my work trip. It’s 66 degrees & beautiful. A storm is expected tomorrow night,” Cruz posted on the social...

Interactive map: How much snow will fall in my area during the storm?

With dangerously-cold arctic air already settling over a large swath of the U.S. Friday, at least 177 million people are under watches or warnings for ice and snow.

FBI agent who sought to investigate ICE officer in Minneapolis shooting resigns: Report

An FBI agent in Minneapolis who attempted to probe the death of a 37-year-old woman killed by a federal immigration officer earlier this month has resigned, according to multiple reports. Tracee Mergen left her job in the bureau's Minneapolis field office after facing pressure to discontinue an inquiry into the Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE)...

In a house divided, the Left loses on principle

Eight score and seven years ago, Abraham Lincoln gave his famous “house divided” speech to close out the 1858 Illinois Republican State Convention. He began with a candid appeal to understanding the current situation that they faced:  “If we could first know where we are, and whither we are tending, we could better judge what […]

Iran is nothing like the Iraq War

Less than a week before Israel launched its attack on Iran, Tucker Carlson, and other cheerleaders for the Islamic State, warned that the conflict could “easily” lead to a world war in which Russia and China would come to the aid of the Islamic clerics and thousands of Americans would die for the Jewish state. The war is now […]

We can’t trust Meta to protect children

Recent reporting has brought to light troubling details about how Meta has been testing an artificial intelligence chatbot that, according to internal concerns, allows users, including minors, to engage in highly inappropriate conversations. Employees reportedly flagged that the system was generating explicit responses, even when it was clear the users were underage. As concerning as this is, it […]

Trump continues to abuse his power by ignoring the TikTok ban

The “No Kings” protest was a joke, with Democrat activists pushing their pet causes and impotently screaming into the political void. However, there is one area of President Donald Trump’s administration, though, where he is clearly acting beyond his powers: TikTok. In April 2024, Congress passed a bill mandating that the social media app be divested from its Chinese Communist Party-aligned ownership, […]

The United Nations schemes against Israel

In an embarrassing diplomatic setback, French President Emmanuel Macron and Saudi Arabian Crown Prince Mohammed bin Salman postponed a United Nations conference they were scheduled to colead in New York on Tuesday. Their plan for the General Assembly conference was to push the quick creation of a Palestinian state, even though the Palestinian terrorist organization […]

When propaganda stops working

It looks like the spectacular collapse of the “Biden was fine” hoax has taken its toll on the legacy media, so much so that their latest gaslighting campaign, blaming President Donald Trump for the Los Angeles anti-ICE riots, is falling flat with the public. At this point, there are nearly as many stories dissecting the […]

We need Canada to help stop the flow of fentanyl over our northern border

The U.S. and Canada share a cherished partnership, rooted in a $1.2 trillion annual trade relationship, with Michigan facilitating over $70 billion through the Detroit-Windsor corridor, North America’s busiest commercial crossing. This bond sustains 8 million U.S. jobs, including 230,000 in Michigan, where Canadian investments fuel our automotive and agricultural sectors. Michiganders treasure Canada’s historical […]

Democrats need another Sister Souljah moment

I’m not a conservative who revels in the self-destruction of the Democratic Party. Sure, there’s an emotional satisfaction in witnessing Democratic delusions go up in smoke, such as last week when CNN’s chief data analyst Harry Enten expounded on the 40-point swing among foreign-born citizens from Democrats to President Donald Trump on immigration. But the […]

No Kings: A very polite liberal tea party

FALLS CHURCH, Virginia — The baby boomers waving American flags and the Vietnam Vets hats were one thing. It was the “Sic Semper Tyrannis” signs and flags, the various barbs at George III, and the countless references to the Declaration of Independence and Constitution that brought back memories of 2010. This “No Kings” rally right […]

A path to reform FEMA

The Federal Emergency Management Agency isn’t just broken, it’s dangerous. The ossified bureaucracy can’t manage routine disasters without self-asphyxiating in red tape. In Puerto Rico, after Hurricane Maria, only 5%-8% of work was completed by the October 2019 deadline. It’s still not finished. Repeated blackouts expose the island’s fragility and FEMA as a soft underbelly […]

Victims deserve justice for raids on the wrong houses

Federal law enforcement officers have high-stakes, high-pressure jobs, and federal judges should not make a habit of second-guessing decisions officers make to keep us safe. But some actions are so negligent and harmful that innocent people injured by law enforcement ought to have the right to seek compensation in federal court. For too long, lower […]

Miranda Devine: Army’s 250th anniversary parade was a celebration of America — unlike foolish ‘No Kings’ protests

The weekend’s grand military parade in Washington to celebrate the Army’s 250th anniversary was a feel-good patriotic triumph and a rebuke to Democrats and...

NYC-sponsored political debates skew the political conversation left

The moderators of the televised New York City mayoral debates overseen by the Campaign Finance Board have clearly skewed the discussion away from the...

This lights-out fire sale is another grim reminder of Andrew Cuomo’s expensive ego
