That conventional wisdom is that the president’s party almost always loses the House and, slightly less often, Senate seats.  There are two structural reasons for this. One is that parties in power tend to do things or […]

President Donald Trump is often far too trusting of the KGB Red Banner Institute-trained manipulator, Russian President Vladimir Putin. Still, no one can legitimately accuse Trump of being foolish in the face of Putin’s nuclear weapons threat to the United States. Flight tracking websites show that at least two aircraft transited this month from a nuclear weapons storage base […]

A 27-year-old Las Vegas man drove cross-country in a BMW with an M4 automatic rifle. He arrived in Midtown Manhattan on Monday and strode cooly into an office building on Park Avenue, where he sprayed bullets into the lobby, killing a police officer and two others.

The Left has done some utterly absurd, ridiculous, and offensive things in adhering to its political ideologies. This includes a significant amount of anti-white bigotry.  Left-wingers have exhibited an irrational hatred for white people through public comments, public shaming, entertainment, and political commentators.

“Democratic voters have said they want a fighter, and Jasmine Crockett, a former attorney who represents the Dallas area, has spent two and a half years in Congress trying to be one. Through her hearing-room quips and social-media insults, she’s become known, at least in MSNBC-watching households, as a leading general in the battle against […]

Gov. Jeff Landry (R-LA) called tort reform changes enacted at the state legislature a victory. But for anyone who cares about Louisiana’s role in making America energy-dominant, it’s hard to see what we’re celebrating. Despite all the headlines, the so-called “tort reform” may tweak a few rules, but it leaves the single biggest obstacle to […]

“Establishing a Palestinian state today is establishing a Hamas state, a jihadist state,” Israel’s Foreign Minister Gideon Saar declared Monday. “It ain’t gonna happen,” he added. Of course, Israel will not accept a Hamas-run state. Whatever chance of that happening ended on Oct. 7, 2023, when Hamas invaded Israel and slaughtered 1,200 innocents in the […]
