Sen. Bill Cassidy said his 2021 vote to convict President Trump on a House impeachment charge of inciting the Jan. 6 riots at the U.S. Capitol may have ended his political career, but he has no regrets.
The U.S. Senate confirmed President Donald Trump's pick to oversee the management of a quarter-billion acres of public lands on Monday, as the administration pushes ahead with more mining and drilling while reversing conservation plans.
Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton (R) on Monday opened an investigation into the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) over its alleged funding of extremist groups it claimed to oppose. Last month, a federal grand jury in Montgomery, Ala., indicted the SPLC on six counts of wire fraud, four counts of bank fraud and one count...
Sen. Thom Tillis (R-N.C.) is urging his Senate Republican colleagues to delay action on a budget reconciliation package to fund immigration enforcement operations through 2029, in part because he said a proposal to spend $1 billion on the White House ballroom is “a major policy problem.” He threatened to vote no on the budget reconciliation...
Democrat Roy Cooper has an 11-point lead over Republican Michael Whatley in the Senate race in North Carolina, according to a new poll from The Carolina Journal/Harper Polling. The survey, released last week, found that nearly half of 600 likely voters in North Carolina said they would either “definitely” or “probably” back Cooper, the former...
On behalf of Jocelyn Pierre, a paraplegic New Yorker, lawyer-brothers Bradly and Darren Marks have filed 113 federal ADA lawsuits against businesses across the...
Los Angeles’s incompetent leadership turned the city into a ticking time bomb for massive fire damage. For the 2024-2025 fiscal year, the Los Angeles Fire Department had a budget of around $837 million. Los Angeles spent more money on homelessness — around $961 million. LAFD is also forced to spend its own resources and money […]
At a 1976 movie premiere in Mexico City, Mario Vargas Llosa famously punched his soon-to-be ex-friend, novelist Gabriel García Márquez, in the face. Some theorize the ruckus was about Vargas Llosa’s wife. Others believe it was a row over politics, as Vargas Llosa would soon refer to García Márquez as “Castro’s courtesan.” I like to think the latter happened. […]
CHARLEROI — For 132 years, the sound of the factory air whistle signaling the start of the work day at the plant along 8th and McKean Avenue in this Washington County borough meant all the things we associate with work: men and women had jobs, families had food on their table, the societal fabric was […]
This editorial was first published in the Denver Gazette. The United States faces ominous space threats from China, Russia, and other adversaries, demanding strategic decisions that bolster national security without disrupting critical operations. Space Command is foundational to countering foreign aggressors, and President Donald Trump could advance its mission while benefiting two regions that have […]
Space travel is one of human civilization’s greatest accomplishments. Yet, it’s hard to argue that humanity’s latest voyage into space hasn’t tainted this achievement. With Blue Origin‘s space flight on Monday, six women were passengers on a commercial trip to space. It is a neat story, but far from any kind of triumph. Yet, inexplicably, […]
In our age of self-preoccupation, children’s rights usually take a backseat. With one of the worst offenders, Tesla CEO Elon Musk, in political prominence with the GOP, this problem is not going to be solved anytime soon. Part of that is because, as a concept, Musk’s family plan itself is never really “solved.” He has […]
Kilmar Abrego Garcia is an illegal immigrant who has no right to be in the United States. He has admitted as much. But it was nonetheless unlawful for the Trump administration to deport him to his home country of El Salvador last month. He is, as the liberal media call him, a “Maryland father” with […]
Democratic agitators, left-wing saboteurs, and liberal activists have plagued town hall meetings hosted by Republicans in Congress since January. They’ve shouted and yelled, created disruptions, and made it uncomfortable for Republicans to talk to their constituents. It’s the same tactics Democrats have been using since the 1960s to silence opposition. In response, the National Republican […]
In an era where biological reality has become almost taboo, the U.K. Supreme Court has delivered a ruling that cuts through the ideological fog with refreshing clarity. By affirming that transgender women — biological males who identify as female — cannot, in law, be treated as women in all circumstances, the court has done something many […]
President Donald Trump plans to ask Congress to rescind the funds it appropriated for public broadcasting, which is a good start in defunding NPR and PBS. The legislative branch must do that and then move to dissolve the Corporation for Public Broadcasting. Rescission deals with the immediate. It applies instant pain to the public broadcasters […]
There are misconceptions about the credit union industry running rampant in Washington, D.C. Many want Congress to impose a tax on credit unions, claiming they have become “too big” or lost sight of who they are. But size isn’t the measure of a credit union, large or small. The exemplary service of these not-for-profit financial cooperatives is what sets them […]
Liberal comedian Bill Maher is under fire from the left and some in the media over his recent White House dinner with President Donald Trump. The dinner was organized by the musician Kid Rock, a mutual friend of Maher and Trump. The host of HBO’s Real Time with Bill Maher, Maher has frequently — and […]
Let’s stop pretending this is normal. The United States has racked up over $36 trillion in debt. This year alone, we’re staring down a $2.75 trillion deficit. That’s a 38% increase over last year and the largest ever recorded — even while revenues are at all-time highs. We don’t have a revenue problem. We have a spending […]
