In a striking example of Iran’s continuing terrorist threat to the West, United Kingdom authorities arrested eight men in two separate operations on Saturday. The first operation saw five men, including four Iranians, detained in five different areas of England. They were arrested on suspicion that they intended to “target a specific premises.” Those premises […]

Sen. Bill Cassidy (R-LA) recently ripped into progressives for opposing Medicaid reform.  “Medicaid is meant to be a state-federal partnership,” Cassidy, who has an M.D., wrote on X. “States are supposed to pay for 40% of the cost. Most states are paying for less than 15%. … People should not be asking what is the […]

If Meta CEO Mark Zuckerberg is any measure of how realistically we are taking artificial intelligence’s looming threats to humanity, the answer is: not realistically enough. For the past few years, AI has hurtled towards each next step in optimization. ChatGPT made for a mainstream tool, but before that, people speculated — as in movies […]

Conservatives were correct and former President Joe Biden and CNN were incorrect when conservatives said it was corrupt for the Bidens to blend personal pursuit of profit with Biden’s duties as president.

Both are record highs in American history. My colleague Karen Zeigler and I estimate 38 million of the total foreign born in […]

While the scale of the crisis defies description, it can largely be resolved through a faithful execution of existing immigration law. In dealing with the […]

Before 1776, Americans owed “perpetual allegiance” to the king as a “debt of gratitude” in return for having been born under his protection, a debt which could not be thrown off or canceled without the king’s permission.

The House Judiciary Committee did its part to make President Donald Trump’s “one big, beautiful bill” a reality last week when it marked up legislation that would increase fees paid to the federal government when processing immigration-related matters.
