In the wake of another fatal shooting involving immigration agents, Trump administration and Minnesota officials are locked in a heated dispute over what exactly transpired and who’s to blame...
Gov. Tim Walz likened Minnesota immigration enforcement to the Holocaust and Anne Frank after a fatal Minneapolis shooting that killed VA nurse Alex Pretti, saying children now fear leaving home.
It’s easy to forget the roaring momentum that accompanied former Vice President Kamala Harris’s ascendance to the top of the Democratic ticket last summer. The entire Democratic machine kicked into gear to awesome effect. Hollywood showed out. Brat summer commenced. Time magazine featured a cover captioned “Her Moment,” with a close-up of Harris gazing aspirationally […]
Although Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, two government-backed mortgage giants with a taxpayer-funded safety net, helped crash the economy in 2008, the Biden administration in its final days quietly laid the groundwork to set them loose again. The goal? End their conservatorship, the federal leash that keeps their taxpayer-funded gambling in check. Last month, President Donald Trump said he would soon make a decision on […]
Sen. Adam Schiff (D-CA) is one of Congress’s most deceitful and dishonest members. He built this reputation when he was in the House of Representatives with the sham witch hunt impeachment trials.

Much ethical debate has occurred since Qatar floated the idea of gifting President Donald Trump a Boeing 747 to replace America’s aging fleet of presidential planes. The idea surfaced shortly before Trump’s recent Middle East visit, but it’s certainly not a novel idea hatched by Doha. In 2018, after learning that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan was looking to […]
Hypocrisy is so commonplace in politics that it takes a truly brazen example to be noteworthy. Enter Trevor Potter and Adav Noti, two campaign finance crusaders who spent years demanding a more “decisive” Federal Election Commission — right up until the moment President Donald Trump won his second term. Now, these so-called “reformers” have suddenly […]
Federal Housing Finance Agency Director William Pulte has brought renewed attention to a number of key issues that affect the safety and soundness of the mortgage industry, issues that could have serious consequences for millions of people trying to buy homes. Among these is the resurrection of a Biden-era regulatory proposal that would replace the current […]
The Steel City will live to see another day thanks to the Trump administration. President Donald Trump visited United States Steel’s Irvin Works in West Mifflin, Pennsylvania, near Pittsburgh, on Friday to announce a partnership between U.S. Steel and Nippon Steel — a safe partnership, something the Biden administration assumed would not be possible. I […]
Before COVID-19, President Donald Trump built a thriving economy that was a model for the rest of the world. A return to the prosperity of that economy is the baseline for this administration, not simply the goal. The people gave the president a mandate in 2024: Enact an agenda that will spur affordable growth, level the […]
The executive branch is morally and legally obliged to “preserve, protect, and defend” the United States. The Biden administration neglected this duty in many ways, most egregiously by permitting, indeed helping, vast numbers of illegal immigrants cross into the U.S. over the southern border. The U.S. Center for Immigration Studies estimates 5.6 million immigrants illegally […]
Like many other Americans who came here legally and became citizens, nothing rankles me more than seeing disrespect, ingratitude, and even homicidal violence from...
