For most Californians, the Fourth of July was a delightful celebration, a chance to honor our nation on its 250th birthday, and an opportunity to embrace the country that...
Three years shy of its 50th anniversary, Iran’s tyrannical, terror-sponsoring regime may finally be nearing its breaking point. Cross your fingers. The key question...
Zohran Mamdani has become New York City mayor just a few years after being an unemployed wannabe rapper, a few years after becoming an American citizen, and even a few years after flipping off Christopher Columbus. In other words, he’s the poster child of the modern Democratic Party, especially when we consider that his first […]
First, there was fraud in the Department of Agriculture’s Federal Child Nutrition Program. Then it was fraud in Medicaid’s “nonstandard benefits” programs.

A secure Ukraine defeats the entire purpose of President Vladimir Putin’s strategy. A Ukraine backed by enforceable commitments, sustained Western military support, and credible deterrence would remain […]
The most disturbing part of New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s inauguration was not that he chose fellow socialist Sen.
