President Trump is attempting to block the BBC's efforts to subpoena his family members for the channel's defense in his ongoing $10 million defamation lawsuit. In Saturday court filings, Trump's lawyers wrote that the British broadcaster's attempts to subpoena the president's children — Donald Trump Jr., Ivanka Trump and son-in-law Jared Kushner — were “cynical” and a...
Negotiations between the United States and Canada fell through this weekend, causing the Trump administration to impose a 50 percent tariff on its northern neighbor. But Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney swiftly responded with his own retaliatory tariff on the U.S. The prime minister said during a Saturday press conference that Canada will “match Washington’s...
Twentysomething writer Jordan Jantz recently did an amazing thing — she wrote a piece about her and her friends’ frustrations with modern dating, about “broken hearts and faltering dreams,” without blaming men, and without a negative reference to even one individual man. I read her piece three times just to make sure I wasn’t imagining […]
I am a mother of four who has spent more than 25 years delivering babies and caring for women across Virginia. Through my work with a nonprofit group advocating for healthy children, I spend a lot of time thinking about what it means to truly protect children, not just at birth, but throughout their lives. […]
President Donald Trump just declared to thousands of American manufacturing workers in Michigan, “You were sold out and betrayed by globalist politicians” who let foreign countries “steal your jobs, pillage your factories, and then loot the crown jewels of American industry.” Under Trump’s leadership, we are reducing our dependence on foreign countries for materials essential […]
Gov. Kathy Hochul (D-NY) recently signed an executive order placing a one-year moratorium on all new data center developments. As someone from Oswego, New York, a small, historically underinvested Rust Belt community upstate, Hochul’s moratorium ensures that the benefits of the artificial intelligence boom in my hometown are dead on arrival. In addition to New […]
America is having the wrong argument about AI data centers. One side sees windowless industrial giants devouring electricity and water while shifting the infrastructure bill onto families who are already struggling. The other sees the physical foundation of the next scientific revolution and warns that every local delay is a direct gift to Beijing. Both […]
Growing up in Auburn, Alabama, crime never paralyzed me. It was rarely more than intoxicated college students and the occasional shoplifting. But every crime carries widespread costs. I witnessed this firsthand when Tuskegee, a small rural town 20 miles southwest of Auburn, got a Walmart. Despite the exciting news and needed business, soon after the […]
The Fifth Amendment promises “just compensation” when the government takes your land. On June 29, the Supreme Court agreed to decide whether a private pipeline company gets to write its own definition of “just.” The case is Hoffmann v. WBI Energy Transmission, and it started with 12 miles of pipe through McKenzie County, North Dakota. […]
In his meeting with President Donald Trump this week, Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu presented fresh intelligence that he says shows Iran is rebuilding elements of its nuclear program, apparently seeking to compel a resumption of the full-scale war. The decision rests almost completely with Trump, and no one knows where it will go. The […]
Putting America first and safeguarding national security begins with equipping farmers with the tools they need to keep food on tables. ATVs allow farmers to cover large fields, check crops and irrigation, transport tools and supplies, and herd livestock across uneven pastures. Yet, these vital working vehicles have been unintentionally caught in Section 232 steel […]
Imagine the scenario: A rogue AI is launching a broad attack on critical infrastructure. It has disabled air traffic control systems across the United States while planes are still in the air, and it is working to take out the electricity grid. It has changed the passwords on its own servers, locking out its human […]
The most important healthcare document released this year wasn’t another regulation, another inspector general report, or another congressional hearing. It was a list of more than 500 hospitals spread across 45 states and the District of Columbia, which the Trump administration identified as failing to comply with the hospital price transparency rule. Five years after […]
Over three consecutive days this month, Romanian F-16s shot down three drones that had entered the country’s airspace — the first such engagements over Romanian territory. One appears to have been an Iranian-designed Shahed of the kind Russia uses against Ukraine. Bucharest summoned Moscow’s ambassador and acted under NATO’s air-policing command. The episode answered the […]
