The chaotic confrontation in Dearborn, Michigan, on Tuesday -- when a demonstrator attempted to burn a Qur'an and Muslim counter-protesters surged -- was more than a brief flash of drama. Along with other recent controversies in Arab-majority Dearborn, such as when the Muslim mayor told a Christian minister he "was not welcome here" and was an...Read more

Former Harvard president Larry Summers has now lost virtually every professional association after a House committee released emails of his exchanges with child sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. There are around 20,000 pages of them. Many of the correspondences are embarrassing. There's going to be little, if any, sympathy for a well-known elite who...Read more

Over the past two weeks, as the national press and Democrats have cared deeply about Jeffrey Epstein and political buzz has amplified Congresswoman Marjorie Taylor Greene's lurch leftward, the more Americans are offline. And the more they spend away from the constant Sturm und Drang of twenty-four-hour news, the less they care about these ...Read more

The Trump-trashing elitist media erupted in outrage when President Donald Trump told ABC White House reporter Mary Bruce she was a "terrible person" and "terrible reporter" and ABC was "fake news." Bruce was throwing hardballs at Trump and Saudi Arabia's crown prince.

It's easy for reporters to tout Bruce as a courageous journalist just doing ...Read more

Whence cometh the conviction, in America and even more in Britain and Europe, that open borders is the only moral immigration policy? Of course, not everyone believes that, and many who do stop short of saying so. But the contrast between the rhetoric and policies of the first two decades of the century and those that have prevailed since ...Read more

"The means of defense against foreign danger have been always the instruments of tyranny at home." -- James Madison (1751-1836)

America today would terrify the Founding Fathers. Armed troops roam the streets of major cities, masked government agents arrest people without probable cause and disrupt the public speech that the president ...Read more

When President Donald Trump publicly chastised Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene -- a lawmaker who has been one of his fiercest and most loyal defenders -- it raised eyebrows across the political world. Greene is no fringe admirer. She has been an unwavering ally, a constant amplifier of Trump's agenda, and one of his most dependable loyalists on ...Read more

American industry has been getting a lot of hands-on direction from Democrats and Republicans for quite some time now. Every few years, someone looks at the underwhelming results of this economic maneuvering and insists that real "industrial policy" has never been tried. The truth is that the Left's call for a "mission-oriented" state and the ...Read more

A few years ago, I was invited to speak at an event in Mobile, Alabama. Driving down from Indiana, I stopped for the night in Nashville, Tennessee, but on the way back, I decided to drive all the way from Mobile to Indianapolis. I had planned an early start, but, enjoying the company of good friends, I didn't leave until well after noon.

That...Read more

The Cartel of the Suns is old news. Long-ignored old news.

However, its public damnation by Secretary of State Marco Rubio demonstrates the Trump administration is serious about protecting American citizens from the disintegrative war being waged by American enemies on U.S. soil.

On Nov. 16, Rubio, via press release, declared the U.S. will ...Read more

There are plenty of serious questions to be asked about Jeffrey Epstein.

Where did he get his money?

Why did so many major figures hobnob with him long after his plea agreement on sex charges with minors?

But when it comes to the ongoing Epstein fallout, there's something else going on: an enormous amount of cynical politicking.

Let's ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- I'll admit it: I've held President Donald Trump to a different standard than former President Joe Biden when it comes to financial entanglements.

Why? For all their "Middle Class Joe" values, Biden and his family -- notably, grabby son Hunter -- apparently set out to cash in on Biden's time in public office and after he served ...Read more

Per new polling reported by Gallup, religion is no longer important to most Americans.

In response to the question "Is religion an important part of your daily life," 49% said yes.

Ten years ago, in 2015, 66% responded affirmatively.

Gallup notes that this 17-point drop "ranks among the largest Gallup has recorded in any country over any 10...Read more

The Democrats' lurch to the extreme left is accelerating at warp speed -- and Connecticut is the latest victim.

The state legislature's Democratic supermajority last week rammed through a bill, HB 8002, that's a thinly disguised socialist wishlist.

Cynically couched as a remedy for the affordable housing crisis, its real purpose is ...Read more

We media types obsess about America's problems. But we should acknowledge that today, life in America is better than life has been anywhere, ever. For most of history, the norm was hunger, disease, illiteracy, slavery and war. There were a few exceptions (from some of those problems) -- so-called golden ages, Ancient Athens, Rome, the ...Read more

When former California Gov. Ronald Reagan sat down with William F. Buckley Jr. to tape an episode of "Firing Line" in January 1980, he stated his unambiguous position on the newly created federal Department of Education.

If he were elected president, he would try to shut it down.

"I would like to dissolve the $10 billion national Department ...Read more

When one of the most famous black women in America starts scolding the "white people," you can feel the double standard marching to center stage. Imagine, for one second, President Donald Trump lecturing the "black people" about being unreasonable. You only need one second to imagine the reaction.

Michelle Obama sat down in front of an audience...Read more
