When Donald Trump addressed an unprecedented gathering of America’s military leadership on Tuesday, he was making his most fervent supporters darkest fears come true. Promising to deploy American troops to cities around the nation in order to “straighten them out one by one,” Trump urged the assembled generals and admirals to use those locations as […]

If the shocking news that President Trump fired U.S. Attorney for Eastern Virginia Erik Siebert sounds oddly familiar, it should. As you may recall, in 2006 and 2007, the Bush administration engaged in a political purge of 9 U.S. prosecutors which a 2008 DOJ Inspector General’s report labeled “arbitrary and “fundamentally flawed.” But as it […]

In the aftermath of the horrifying murder of Charlie Kirk, my social media feeds have been filled with video clips of the slain activist’s past speeches and appearances. I found one—a testimony of his Christian faith--doubly powerful. Powerful first because Kirk spoke so passionately about his belief in the gift of God’s grace. Kirk’s words […]

What would Tehran’s retaliation look like should the United States join Israel’s war on Iran? Well, America’s experience in January 2020 provided a small hint. As you may recall, on January 3rd, President Trump’s orders U.S. forces assassinated General Qassem Soleimani, the leader of the Iranian Revolutionary Guard. Following the drone strike which killed Soleimani […]

These are frightening times at America’s leading universities. Following the Trump administration’s declaration that it will withhold $400 million in federal research grants and potentially billions more from Columbia University “for the lawless antisemitism that it allowed to occur on its campus,” the Department of Education announced 60 top universities are now under investigation for […]

The federal government is headed for a shutdown on Friday unless Congress can agree in time to a stop-gap spending measure. But if GOP leaders don’t add provisions reversing every lawless spending cut made by Elon Musk’s supposed Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), every Democrat in the House and Senate must vote “no.” After all, […]

In the wake of Secretary of State Marco Rubio’s meeting with his Russian counterparts in Saudi Arabia Tuesday, defenders of freedom worldwide can be forgiven for thinking they had seen this horror story before. After all, an expansionist European power pressed its claim to the territory of another sovereign nation in part based on the […]

I’m outraged! I only now learned that in just four years the United States provided $175 billion in foreign aid to 16 European nations, including France, Italy and the UK! It’s shocking, but it’s true! A long time ago, there was this thing called World War II. It started about a year after a popular […]

As the New York Times detailed, Elon Musk and his DOGE non-agency are now routinely accessing vital government computer systems at the Treasury Department, the GSA, the IRS and other federal bureaus. President Trump’s “special government employee” has deployed engineers as young as 19 to peruse and mine sensitive government systems previously off limits to […]

This is one of the darkest and most shameful days in modern American history. By unilaterally imposing 25% tariffs against Canada and Mexico in violation of a trade agreement he himself signed in 2018, President Trump has betrayed our closest friends, allies and trading partners. Instead of working hand-in-hand with our North American neighbors to […]
