The release by Democrats of their party’s so-called autopsy on the 2024 election is deservedly getting trashed for being late, superficial and scattershot.
A person who opened fire Saturday on a White House security checkpoint is dead after being shot by officers who returned fire, the U.S. Secret Service said. It was the third incidence of gunfire in the vicinity of President Trump in the past month.
Sen. Ted Cruz (R-Texas) sparred with one of President Trump’s outside advisers on social media Saturday after indicating he was “deeply concerned” about the terms of an emerging deal between the U.S. and Iran. “I am deeply concerned about what we are hearing about an Iran ‘deal,’ being pushed by some voices in the administration,”...
Jeff Bezos, the billionaire Amazon founder and owner of the Washington Post, made waves this week when he announced the paper’s editorial page will be taking a new direction. “We are going to be writing every day in support and defense of two pillars: personal liberties and free markets,” Bezos said in a note sent to staff on […]
New York Times columnist Ross Douthat did not write his new book Believe for me personally (that honor appears to belong to The Atlantic’s Derek Thompson, who is mentioned in the introduction), but it is at least written for people like me. “I am a believing Christian,” Douthat says, explaining his motive for writing the […]
Having taken over the Kennedy Center as chairman of the Board, President Donald Trump intends a major cultural retrograde. His Christmas improvement — “a big, huge celebration of the birth of Christ,” per new Kennedy Center President Richard Grenell — has many questioning whether this is not just a MAGA approach to the same event. […]
The U.S. House of Representatives passed its budget plan on Feb. 25. The vote was 217-215, with all Democrats voting against the bill along with Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY). With the nominations and subsequent resignations of former Reps. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) and Mike Waltz (R-FL), Republicans have their smallest House majority since 1931. Rep. Elise […]
Iran is conducting a campaign to extract sensitive U.S. data and use it to harm Americans and our allies, and policymakers are not doing enough to stop it. President Donald Trump‘s Feb. 4 executive order ordering the government to start a robust campaign against Iran’s intellectual property theft is a good start, drawing attention to a serious […]
Hamas slaughtered 1,200 Israeli civilians on Oct. 7 and then ran to gullible left-wingers across the globe to whine about Israel daring to retaliate. Now, Hamas is launching propaganda rallies as it hands over live and murdered hostages while Palestinians celebrate murdered babies. Through it all, countless Western politicians, media outlets, and global organizations have […]
From Day One of his second administration, President Donald Trump made it clear that divisive diversity, equity, and inclusion policies throughout the government would be slashed. Many of the loudest voices you’ll hear on TV say this approach is a threat to people of color. To be clear, DEI is not Civil Rights 2.0. It […]
The tragic aircraft collision at Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport on Jan. 29 was personally devastating. Not because I knew any of the 67 souls lost that night or the first responders but because of the senselessness of it and the painful conclusion that it was predictable and preventable. I believe that because of efforts […]
The Federal Trade Commission is requesting public comments on “technology platform censorship,” a long-standing gripe for conservatives who believe social media companies have been censoring them and their ideas. To date, courts have rejected cases alleging censorship by the so-called Big Tech platforms on grounds that the plaintiffs failed to show “state action” on the […]
Joy Reid was, by far, the worst on-air personality at MSNBC. Her show’s dwindling popularity was rivaled only by its lack of honesty, amounting to nothing but a nightly screech-fest against white people, fascism, President Donald Trump, and white people. Rachel Maddow, who pushes the same conspiratorial nonsense as Reid with slightly more subtly and […]
Rural communities face a looming crisis if Congress allows certain provisions of the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act to expire at the end of this year or soon after. These provisions are critical to ensuring that the positive economic impacts of that landmark legislation continue to be felt by rural families, businesses, and entrepreneurs. […]
The United States failed to live up to its best history, values, and long-term interests when it voted against a U.N. resolution on Monday to condemn Russia lightly on the third anniversary of its invasion of Ukraine. President Donald Trump rightly wants to secure a lasting peace that ends this war. It has taken hundreds […]
