The American Israel Public Affairs Committee has suspended contributions to multiple House Democrats who voted this week to cut off U.S. aid to Israel.
More than 100 million Americans are under air quality alerts as smoke from wildfires in Canada and northern Minnesota blankets parts of the U.S. and releases microscopic particles into the atmosphere that can raise serious health risks. Shifting winds have pushed thick haze into major metro areas across the Great Lakes, Northeast and Mid-Atlantic, reducing...
Video of a Scottish girl brandishing a big knife and a small ax at a man recording their confrontation became a viral sensation this week. The scene is extraordinary and revealing — it has been called iconic already — but some Scottish news outlets, such as the Scottish Sun, initially reported only that police charged […]
California Republicans are now pushing a proposal to split the state into two. While that will obviously never happen, it does highlight just how untenable the political situation in California has become under Democratic single-party rule. The proposal from Assembly Minority Leader James Gallagher would cut the state into two, with the “Democratic” state making up most of California’s coast and […]

One would never know it by the despicable comments of Democrats, liberals, and others on the Left regarding the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers, but the agencies are working diligently to make the country much safer. This includes removing illegal immigrants, specifically those with a violent criminal background. In return, […]
Modern Americans tend to make two mistakes when it comes to understanding culture, and both are tied to individualism. First, we think about decision-making solely on the individual level, thus failing to consider how cultural trends can take hold. Second, we seem to think that other people’s personal lives are none of our business — […]
When Robert Lulgjuraj, a Republican from Sterling Heights, Michigan, began his campaign for the state’s 10th Congressional District last week, the former prosecutor quickly earned the support of Republican grassroots activist Brian Pannebecker, a retired autoworker from Macomb County who worked tirelessly to bring home Michigan for President Donald Trump last November. “Robert, like me was […]
With the end of President Donald Trump’s run as the nation’s pivotal figure in sight (no, he can’t secure a third term), the post-Trump political landscape is beginning to take form. And while Democrats continue to languish, trouble also brews for the GOP’s long-term viability. First, the Democrats’ woes: On Wednesday, the New York Times […]
The FBI raid on former national security adviser John Bolton last Friday for alleged mishandling of classification was suspect from the start. At least if the president’s critics are to be believed.

Fortunately, in several recent decisions, the Supreme Court found that administrative ease never justifies a disregard for fundamental individual rights. […]
America stands at a crossroads, but one truth is undeniable: Since President Donald Trump returned to the White House in January 2025, our nation has been reminded of what it looks like to lead with strength, clarity, and conviction. The question that some in the woke media now ask — “Are you better off since […]
Any proposal put forward by District of Columbia Mayor Muriel Bowser would not, to say the least, seem likely to be favored by President Donald Trump. The two are at odds over Trump’s takeover of the district’s police and general disdain for D.C. home rule. Bowser on Trump, Trump on Bowser. But, though she would […]
President Donald Trump has a flair for the dramatic, and that was on full display Monday when he signed an executive order titled “Prosecuting Burning of the American Flag.” “You burn a flag, you get one year in jail. You don’t get 10 years, you don’t get one month,” Trump said. “You get one year […]
