MUSK GOES OFF THE RESERVATION. Maybe you think it is good, or maybe you think it is bad, but there is no doubt that the “big, beautiful bill” is President Donald Trump‘s top legislative priority right now. It would make the Trump tax cuts, the biggest legislative accomplishment of his first term, permanent. It would make […]

Rep. Jamie Raskin (D-MD) wants you to stop talking about the antisemitic terrorist attack in Boulder, Colorado, so he can talk about gun control. But the Boulder attack should end the gun control debate for good. After an illegal immigrant from Egypt lit multiple pro-Israel protesters on fire with Molotov cocktails, Raskin decided to pivot away from the obvious antisemitism […]

It is the first week of June, and “Pride” is in full swing. No longer is the optimal family model, one man and one woman, married, accepted as fact, or even as time-tested. As a result, people rarely make children a primary component of ethical concerns. This is so even in feigned family-centered debates over […]

A beloved voice actor was just murdered for being gay. At least, that’s the narrative that viral post after viral post across social media is pushing. There’s just one problem: As tragic as it is, this alleged murder likely had nothing to do with homosexuality at all.  This past Sunday, Jonathan Joss of King of […]

For three years and more since Russian President Vladimir Putin’s imperial invasion of Ukraine in February 2022, we have become accustomed to referring to Russia’s “war machine.”  The phrase denoted a powerful and malevolent force, big and dark and dirty, capable of grinding down its enemy while uncaringly sacrificing its own infantry in great numbers. […]

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. This included being exposed for falsifying details about a phone call between President Donald Trump and Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, mischaracterizing text messages, […]

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 […]

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 […]
