Sen. Cory Booker (D-NJ) wanted to talk this week and decided to put on a show. The legislative entertainer did so under the guise of the latest performative act in the sequel known as the Democratic resistance to President Donald Trump’s second term. With his colleagues and fellow Party members facing record-low approval ratings near […]
In case you thought Democrats would back down from their transgender authoritarianism, Colorado Democrats are looking to make “misgendering” illegal and make transitioning children a sticking point in child custody battles. Four Colorado Democrats have introduced a bill called the Kelly Loving Act. The bill would make it so that any parent in a child […]
WHAT THE FLORIDA AND WISCONSIN ELECTIONS MEAN. Were there any surprises from the two House elections in Florida and the Supreme Court race in Wisconsin? Not really. Democrats were desperately hoping to strike a blow against President Donald Trump wherever they could. For a moment, they thought they might get close enough in one of the […]
Is President Donald Trump bent on political self-harm? It often seems that way. His overall job approval rating still hovers within a point or two of the 50% popular vote he received last November. But he is losing support on the economy and inflation, the No. 1 issue last year, while his overwhelming success in […]
Each woman has a mind of her own, but when 80% of female voters support a conservative policy, elected officials should pay attention. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent and National Economic Council Director Kevin Hassett met with Republican leaders and tax writers on the Hill last week to jump-start negotiations. Congressional leaders should keep this in mind as […]
There is no excuse. “Signalgate” shows top officials played fast and loose with security. Just as Wikileaks exposed former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton’s venality and abuse of travel, Signalgate shined light into just how amateurish President Donald Trump’s top team was. Sure, national security adviser Mike Waltz might be to blame for adding Atlantic editor Jeffrey […]
Illegal abortion “shield laws,” such as those that exist in New York, are an odd hope the Left has for regenerating social trust. The process is, of course, legally fraught, but it has equally strong cultural implications. Social trust in the US has seen steady decline for decades, and with that, social time overall is […]
President Donald Trump just ended collective bargaining in much of the federal government. He took this bold step on national security grounds, but it won’t just make America safer: It will save taxpayers huge amounts of money while freeing federal workers from one-size-fits-all union contracts that make them less effective. This is a massive win […]
Two points made by the new book Fight: Inside The Wildest Race for the White House by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes ought to leave enduring marks far beyond its actual reading audience. The first, and smaller point, is the proof the account provides that at least ABC, and probably every legacy network, ought never to be allowed to […]
President Donald Trump’s approval rating remains solid — the 47th president is still more popular now than at any point during his first term — but cracks in his support are beginning to show, specifically on his handling of the economy. A CBS-YouGov poll shows that in January, 42% of voters expected Trump’s economic policies to improve their financial situation, with […]
Amid President Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown, some Republicans are brushing away concerns about due process. White House adviser Stephen Miller, for example, claimed that “if you illegally invaded our country the only ‘process’ you are entitled to is deportation.” Rep. Victoria Spartz (R-IN) claimed, “There is no due process if you come here illegally because […]
Whether the U.S. ambassador to the United Nations is Rep. Elise Stefanik (R-NY), who sadly withdrew her nomination for the post last week, or another qualified individual, the message from the Trump administration has already been made clear to bureaucrats at the global body that the United States will not be going along with radical […]
Would you feel safe booking a business trip through San Francisco International Airport? What about taking your family to Disney World through Orlando Sanford International Airport? If you feel comfortable making travel plans through either of these airports, then you have already demonstrated you are comfortable with privatizing airport security. Both SFO and SFB are […]
