Sen. Darline Graham made her political debut before hundreds of Republican voters in South Carolina on Saturday, saying that she never envisioned a life in politics for herself until after the death of her brother Lindsey Graham, and now wants to work hard to promote the state and President Trump's policy priorities.
When he heard the border had been breached, Abdulah Buji jumped on his motorbike and raced from his home in northern Morocco toward Ceuta, joining tens of thousands of people trying to swim into the tiny Spanish territory in North Africa.
Sen. John Fetterman has again dismissed speculation that he might switch parties, saying that he would "never" leave despite saying two weeks earlier that an officially anti-Israel Democratic platform would force him out.
The two-month tenure of Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence will officially come to an end on Monday when the housing regulator officially hands the reins to Jay Clayton, President Trump's pick for the job.
California Democrats are fighting Republicans (and themselves) over whether buying minors for sex should be a felony or whether there are some occasions when it isn’t that bad. Democrats in the California legislature blocked a bill from a fellow Democratic assemblywoman, Maggy Krell, until she agreed to remove part of the bill that would make […]
The Trump administration is shaking up the White House press corps in some truly interesting ways. One is the implementation of “influencer briefings,” during which White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt takes questions from nontraditional journalists and social media influencers. In principle, this is a fantastic idea. Millions of people now get their news online, […]
We have come to the point in transgenderism that to “do no harm” is subject more to interpretation than to dictate. Government actors are starting to turn the tide on child endangerment in this realm, but the sad reality is even that is a bit too late — the harm starts far before hormone treatments. […]
New Jersey was the first state to acknowledge the dangers of “revenge porn,” banning the trend in 2004. Alaska followed its lead in 2006, and then Texas years later in 2015. More states jumped on board, often dealing with the confusing legality of protecting First Amendment rights, not having previous court cases to go off of, […]
During a Cabinet meeting marking President Donald Trump’s 100th day in office, the Commander in Chief jokingly referred to his secretary of defense, Pete Hegseth, as the “least controversial person at the table.” It was a facetious comment meant to convey the vast number of political attacks Hegseth has endured since taking office. Much, if […]
A massive blackout crippled Spain and Portugal on Monday, grounding flights, halting transport, and leaving millions without power. The cause was “unclear,” the New York Times reported, with “no evidence of a cyberattack.” As Spanish officials urged citizens to stay off the roads, European leaders said they were attempting to ascertain the cause of the […]
The day he was sworn in as the 47th president, Donald Trump signed an executive order titled “Defending Women From Gender Ideology Extremism and Restoring Biological Truth to the Federal Government.” It plainly states, “my Administration will defend women’s rights and protect freedom of conscience by using clear and accurate language and policies that recognize women […]
Commentary on Canada’s anti-Trumpian election result missed a key point, which is that it was due to many Canadians being anti-American bigots. I say this startling thing despite being blessed with Canadian relatives and friends whom I love, despite admiring and liking many others, and despite (perhaps because of) having for decades visited, lived in, […]
According to the Wall Street Journal’s Rachel Wolfe, women are simply no longer interested in being with men. “A 2022 Pew survey of single adults showed only 34% of single women were looking for romance, compared with 54% of single men,” Wolfe reports, adding, “Over half of single women said they believed they were happier […]
Student reading levels are at 10-year lows. However, one might doubt this when looking at Illinois, where the Chicago Teachers Union is doing its best to sustain the absenteeism that has set the school system back so far. In time for Cinco de Mayo, the union is pursuing a five-day protest “to stop the billionaire […]
The late Pope Francis was the least favorite pope of American conservatives. In 2020, when Francis published an encyclical a month before the U.S. election, he seemed to be playing to his part as “the liberal Pope.” The encyclical envisioned a world “without borders,” sang of a “universal brotherhood,” and called mankind “children of the […]
Marriage is a natural institution. But that doesn’t mean it comes easily. It involves sacrificing for others. That’s a problem in this age where our elites hold individual autonomy as a lodestar, which makes things tricky for a liberal media advice columnist. At Vox, a site that tells progressive millennial and Generation Z elites how […]
Successful 21st-century presidential candidates present a bold blueprint for how they would govern, but the most successful recent presidents govern with humility. It is a vexing paradox, one that the last two commanders in chief have struggled to wrap their heads around. In 2020, Joe Biden won the White House largely on the promise of […]
Artificial intelligence is taking over education in all kinds of interesting and innovative ways, and not all of them are positive. Scammers are enrolling AI bots in online courses at California community colleges, with the bots staying in the class just long enough to receive state and federal financial aid. The phenomenon has popped up […]
