An old and debunked claim that the Jewish state deliberately attacked a US Navy spy ship during the Six-Day War has renewed currency on the antisemitic right.
A federal judge has blocked the Trump administration's attempt to reallocate federal Homeland Security funding away from states that refuse to cooperate with certain federal immigration enforcement.
Like many global war on terror veterans, I have personal experience with post-traumatic stress. Having joined the Marine Corps right out of high school, I served six years, including a 2011 deployment to Afghanistan’s Helmand Province. At the Bastion Trauma Center, I saw more battlefield damage than I care to remember. When I got home, […]
The Senate voted on Sunday to break the stalemate that had dragged the country into a weeks-long government shutdown — by agreeing to conditions first posed by Republicans before Democrats, under the leadership of Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), decided to scream and shout and shake it all about. In other words, the Democrats shut […]
I grew up in Venezuela, a country where the government ran supermarkets, seized private housing, imposed price controls, and built public housing. Where the state hated that the rich got richer, so it took their wealth. Now, everyone is equal: equally poor. The same ideas that destroyed my country — government control, class resentment, and centralized […]
Democrats are watching with glee and Republicans are aghast as the Heritage Foundation implodes over its leadership’s relationship with commentator Tucker Carlson and his softball interview with Nick Fuentes, an antisemitic white nationalist. Heritage board members and scholars have resigned in outrage. Principle matters more than a good job. Scholars such as Chris DeMuth, Stephen […]

Somewhere along the line, conservatism abandoned faith in good journalism and became a cult of personality — or personalities. We made celebrities out of people like Tucker Carlson and Candace Owens, whose thinking is often paranoid and whose work is sloppy. The result is the current implosion in conservative media, triggered by the reckless antisemitism […]
Eight centrist Senate Democrats took the brave step of crossing their party’s rabid base to cut a deal with Senate Republicans and end the federal government shutdown Sunday night. If all goes smoothly, the House could vote on the new continuing resolution on Wednesday, and Washington could be open again by Thursday. This would be […]
Democrats pointlessly kept the government shut down for 41 days (and still counting!), purely to satisfy their squalling left flank’s need to do something...
BRADDOCK, Pennsylvania — Sen. John Fetterman (D-PA), who once served as mayor of the Mon Valley city home to Andrew Carnegie’s first steel plant, has been clear from the start of the government shutdown that he opposes it entirely. He hasn’t just talked about opposing the shutdown — he has acted. Over the shutdown’s 40 days, he […]
