Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, in a video message at the Defender of Freedom Gala in Virginia's Pentagon City last week, fondly recalled his cold morning in Minnesota years ago when he delivered joy to a veteran and his family.
No one expects the Democratic Party to support President Donald Trump’s bold decision to end Iran’s nuclear weapons program. However, they could at least be a little honest or consistent when speaking about the legality of Trump’s actions. For example, former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) called Trump’s airstrikes “unconstitutional,” as did Sen. Amy Klobuchar […]
This weekend, President Donald Trump delivered a disastrous blow to both Iran’s nuclear capabilities and the projected isolationism of the woke right, with the U.S. military striking three nuclear sites in the world’s greatest sponsor of terrorism: Fordow, Natanz, and Isfahan, in direct and proud collaboration with the Israeli military and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. […]
As a Navy veteran, Navy spouse, and now mother of an active-duty servicemember, I understand the realities of military life, not just in theory, but through personal experience. Now, serving on the House Armed Services Committee, I carry that perspective into every conversation I have about national security and defense policy. That’s why I fully […]
Conventional wisdom says the 2028 Republican nomination for president is a lock: Vice President JD Vance will carry the MAGA torch into the GOP’s post-Trump era. Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN), a longtime advocate of Vance, recently said he “will be the nominee in 2028 — mark my words.” He added, “After President Trump, [Vance] is […]
June is National Homeownership Month, but for millions of Americans, owning a home feels more out of reach than ever. The Trump administration wants to change that — and fast. In a recent statement on National Homeownership Month, Housing Secretary Scott Turner made it clear that, under Trump’s leadership, the administration has already cut regulations, […]
Gov. Gretchen Whitmer (D-MI) seems all but certain to run for president, and voters need to know about a uniquely concerning part of her record. She has overseen an explosion of earmarks — the pork-barrel spending that politicians dole out without regard to taxpayers — including more than a billion dollars in her latest state […]
As an Iranian woman, the lack of support by Western feminists as Iran’s oppressed women struggle to liberate themselves never ceases to amaze and appall me. Isn’t feminism supposed to be about women’s liberation? And yet, with Iran, a country where women are governed by absolutist religious law that hardly treats them as human, so […]
There may not be a better example of liberal, elitist, left-wing hypocrisy on illegal immigration than the Los Angeles Dodgers organization. On Friday, the CEO of the baseball franchise announced his team would contribute $1 million to the “families of immigrants impacted by recent events in the region.” And by “recent events,” the Dodgers mean […]
Business leaders and policymakers have been sounding the alarm for years: The employer-sponsored health insurance model is unsustainable. But with the cost of group health insurance premiums up 25% in five years, a fix may be in the works. Introduced during the first Trump administration, individual coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements continued to receive federal support through the […]
The United States might drop its health guidance on limiting alcohol intake to two drinks per day for men and one for women. A message discouraging all alcohol consumption is unlikely to be included in the pending 2025 U.S. Dietary Guidelines, Reuters reports from sources within the Department of Health and Human Services, led by […]
A smart tax system tries to reward virtue and punish vice. That’s why we impose an excise on purchases of things such as cigarettes. We want to discourage people from smoking, and there’s a broad bipartisan consensus that reasonable tobacco taxes make sense to raise revenue and as a public health measure to discourage smoking. […]
The dirty little international secret about President Donald Trump’s decision to bomb Iran’s nuclear program is that most world leaders are happy he did it. United Kingdom Prime Minister Keir Starmer, no fan of Trump, said Sunday, “Iran’s nuclear program is a grave threat to international security. Iran can never be allowed to develop a […]
What an impressive sight it was Sunday, when the futuristic B-2 stealth bombers sliced through the powder-blue Missouri sky on their triumphant return to...
