President Trump's second attempt at an executive order limiting birthright citizenship was blocked by a federal judge, who said the president was trying to eat away at citizenship for some of the people the Supreme Court just ruled were entitled to it.
The Pentagon's new mandatory testosterone deficiency screening for troops ages 30 and up includes mandatory blood tests and voluntary hormone replacement therapy for men.
TRUMP’S ECONOMIC CAMPAIGN. President Donald Trump gave a nationally televised speech Wednesday night, predicting the economy would improve dramatically under his policies. Democrats and their allies in the media scoffed. Meanwhile, economists predicted the Bureau of Labor Statistics’ upcoming measure of inflation, due just hours after the president’s speech, would show inflation rising to 3.1% year […]

The murder of Rob Reiner and his wife has revived discussion of the death penalty in California. Perhaps Gov. Gavin Newsom (D-CA) can stop undermining California law and grow enough of a spine to make a decision on it one way or another. Los Angeles County District Attorney Nathan Hochman announced first-degree murder charges against Reiner’s son, […]
President Donald Trump is adopting a positive strategy toward removing Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro from power. By gradually escalating pressure on Maduro’s regime without directly using U.S. military force against it, Trump increases the probability of an internal coup d’etat. Recent days have seen continued U.S. strikes against narco-trafficking boats, the U.S. seizure of a […]

One of my favorite possessions is a 50th anniversary copy of George Orwell’s 1945 novella, Animal Farm, with illustrations by Gonzo artist Ralph Steadman, whose chaotic, ink-splattered satirical style only enhances the masterpiece. I was thinking of this book as I watched the first trailer of the new animated adaptation of Animal Farm, directed by Andy Serkis and distributed by the […]
Congressional Democrats have portrayed themselves as arbiters of truth, defenders of morality, paragons of virtue, and every other benign assertion one could fathom in U.S. politics. They regularly decry oppression, suppression, rights violations, and the weaponization of the justice system, among other hyperbole, while remaining conspicuously silent when it involves colleagues or infractions committed by […]
A new report from the Society for Family Planning suggests that there are now somewhere between 130,000 and 150,000 abortions per year in states that have enacted heartbeat protections, or further protections, for the unborn. Many pro-life states are apparently on track to have more abortions within their borders each year than they did under Roe v. Wade. To be […]
With the possible exception of John Hughes, it is difficult to think of a filmmaker who so thoroughly defined the texture, tone, and emotional vocabulary of the 1980s, and whose influence extended so cleanly into the decades beyond, as Rob Reiner. His tragic death this week, alongside his wife, marks not just the loss of […]
Sheriffs live with the real-world consequences of decisions made in Washington every day. We welcomed the depth of the New York Times’s recent 4,000-word opus on the Biden administration’s border failures, appropriately titled, “How Biden Ignored Warnings and Lost Americans’ Faith in Immigration.” But let’s be honest: This reporting is years late. Sheriffs — Democrats, Republicans, […]
