Religiosity is commonly the strongest signifier of a romantic match. For better or for worse, young Republicans are finding that “MAGA” fills that role well enough. The rumor is that outright conservatism is how young, urban professionals now do best at finding dates and party invitations. More than a rumor: Profiles of the “Make America […]

CNN’s Brian Stelter said the terrorist attack against Jewish protesters in Boulder, Colorado, was “another day that heightens the fear that many Jewish Americans already feel.” Perhaps liberal media, including CNN, should stop feeding into left-wing violence and antisemitism with their atrocious coverage of Israel and Gaza. Using CNN as a chief example, let’s go back to the brutal murder of two […]

Delivering the keynote address at the Shangri-La Dialogue in Singapore on Friday, French President Emmanuel Macron adopted a slightly more skeptical assessment of China. Macron repeatedly emphasized that France doesn’t “want to be confrontational with China.” Instead, he wants “de-risking, no confrontation, but clearly strategic autonomy.” This reference to strategic autonomy is a long-standing Macron […]

The battle over tariffs has shifted to the federal courts. The Supreme Court may have the last word on whether the Trump administration went too far when it imposed tariffs on both allies and adversaries on “Liberation Day.” Let’s hope the highest court in the land stands on principle and affirms the decision of the […]

After witnessing how communists imposed their radical ideology during China’s Cultural Revolution, never in my wildest dreams did I think I would ever see the same sort of indoctrination taking place in American schools. But, to my horror, that is precisely what has come to pass. We cannot ignore how Marxist ideology destroyed China’s soul during […]

Imagine a couple planning a family trip to the nation’s capital for Independence Day. They book their flight into Dulles and their hotel, and they start to plan their local transportation. They learn that Dulles has gotten a Metro station since the last time they visited, so they do some research. They read four local […]

HOW TRUMP LED GOP FROM 2012 DESPAIR TO 2024 TRIUMPH. The Republican Party was in desperate straits in the weeks following the 2012 presidential election. There were several reasons. One, its losing nominee, Mitt Romney, was a poor candidate whom a significant part of the GOP base, and an even more significant part of the […]

Planned Parenthood‘s newly released 2023–2024 annual report makes one thing crystal clear: abortion is big business, and business is booming. In 2022-2023, abortion made up 97.7% of Planned Parenthood’s “pregnancy-related services.” The organization boasted 402,200 abortions in its report, an increase even as its number of physical locations has declined. This is not a coincidence; it’s a […]

The House’s passage of the reconciliation package and the “big, beautiful bill” should be celebrated for what it is: a much-needed win for workers and the U.S. economy. At a time when former President Joe Biden’s failed economic policies are still weighing down the economy, House Republicans delivered a package that rewards hard work, strengthens […]

ODESSA, Ukraine — Odessa was the pearl of the Black Sea. It still is. Life goes on, but the signs of war are also present. The art museums are open but boarded up against the threat of missile and drone strikes. Every apartment building, school, and hotel has bomb shelters. Restaurants inform their patrons where […]

All the lonely people. Where do they all come from? Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg recently said he hopes artificial intelligence chatbots will soon serve as buddies, therapists, and business partners for people who lack human interaction. This is from the man who hollowed out the meaning of “friend” and made much of online social interaction […]

In 2016, President Donald Trump entered the White House promising peace through strength. By the time he left office in 2021, Trump had largely fulfilled that pledge without squandering American blood and treasure on endless wars.  But after the humiliating and deadly Biden administration withdrawal from Afghanistan, international bad actors took advantage of American weakness, […]

President Donald Trump’s decision to green-light a restructured deal between US Steel and Japanese-owned Nippon Steel was a turnaround for him and perhaps for American manufacturing. Trump, who vowed to block the deal throughout the 2024 presidential campaign on the grounds of protecting domestic industry and national security, eventually came to a different and truer […]
