Finally, a real libertarian is president. That's in Argentina, where last year, Javier Milei surprised pundits by winning the election by a landslide. Now that he's had a chance to govern, my new video covers the results and explains why Milei is now even more popular.

Argentina was once one of the richest countries in the world. Then, ...Read more

CNN data expert Harry Enten delivers poll results on air to his colleagues, whether they want to hear it or not. On the first Friday of President Donald Trump's second term, he brought bad news to CNN morning anchor Kate Bolduan that a new Reuters/Ipsos poll found Trump had a net approval rating of plus-6.

This term is starting much differently...Read more

WASHINGTON -- The first daily press briefing of President Donald Trump 2.0 was not what many predicted last year. Before Trump re-took the White House, there had been speculation that Trump World would eject the daily press briefings from the James S. Brady briefing room with its 49 seats and standing room in the aisles.

That didn't happen. ...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- My brain works in threes. So now that President Donald Trump is back in the White House, here's a trifecta of things I'm experiencing. As I watch Trump abuse executive power and weaponize the federal government, my head is spinning, my heart is breaking and my blood is boiling.

It's disturbing how many of Trump's recent actions, ...Read more

There's little need to become an interplanetary country if we can't populate the country we already have.

President Donald Trump's inaugural address didn't just include an amazing list of things he wants to do. It cast an aspirational vision for Americans to rally around.

"The United States will once again consider itself a growing nation," ...Read more

In the days leading up to President Donald Trump's visit to Appalachian North Carolina, Monica Glowinski said her biggest prayer for the people of Buncombe County, which was devastated by the wrath of Hurricane Helene, was that Trump would not let their plight be forgotten.

"I am optimistic that President Trump is focusing his energies here,"...Read more

The federal government owns multiple trillions of dollars of federal assets -- from land, to buildings, to patent rights, to mineral rights, to immigrant visas, to oil fields to trucks and trains and unused office furniture equipment.

The government could earn well over $1 trillion and perhaps as much as $10 trillion by selling off these assets...Read more

First, let me say this out loud -- and even I can't believe what I'm about to say:

President Donald Trump has done more in his first four days than my old hero Ronald Reagan did in eight years.

I'm a conservative talk show host. I've hosted my national TV and radio shows for 10 years. Trump has already put in motion much, if not almost all, of...Read more

WASHINGTON -- What did President Donald Trump learn during his four-year hiatus from the White House? For one thing, he seems to have learned how to listen. But also, to judge by the first week of his second term, Trump 2.0 seems more focused, mission-driven and prepared to get things done at warp speed.

Here's a short list of other lessons ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- Democrats are afraid, very afraid. This week, 12 Senate Democrats and 46 House Democrats joined Republicans in voting for the Laken Riley Act, which requires the Department of Homeland Security to detain unauthorized immigrants who have been arrested for burglary, theft, larceny or shoplifting.

Expect President Donald Trump to ...Read more

In CNN's buildup to the Trump inauguration on Monday, anchor Jake Tapper uncorked a lecture about how five Big Tech executives in attendance "control so much of the information that we receive."

Was that a warning? Or an expression of jealousy? The leftist media hate that the American people have gone around them for information, and they can't...Read more

The civilizational inflection point in our cold civil war happened sometime between Donald Trump's second inaugural address on Monday and the end of his new presidency's second day on Tuesday. At some indeterminate moment between Monday's soaring midday speech, in which the first nonconsecutive two-term president in over 130 years artfully ...Read more

As expected, Joe Biden handed out 10-year blanket pardons to his corrupt family, which had profited in the millions from influence-peddling schemes.

The venality is breathtaking.

The corruption is one thing. But pardons he gave government officials like Mark Milley, Anthony Fauci, Bennie Thompson, Liz Cheney and others has create an ...Read more

The American press corps covers Republican presidential administrations very differently from Democratic presidential administrations and covers Donald Trump's administration differently from everything. To the press, Donald Trump is a bad man -- a would-be authoritarian tyrant. Therefore, any policy is presumed to be bad, and it will be ...Read more

The portrait of Andrew Jackson has returned to the wall of the Oval Office, put up in time to greet President Donald Trump as he entered for the first time as the 47th president.

It's a choice Democrats are poorly positioned to criticize, even though the seventh president owned slaves and ordered the Southeastern Indians west on the Trail of ...Read more

The tone was set by Franklin Graham's invocation. Preachers are a fixture at presidential inaugurations, but until now they've confined their words to asking the Almighty to bless the new president and his family and to guide the nation to goodness and mercy. The prophets were popular choices. Not this time. Graham used the opportunity not to ...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- Well, this is revealing. The Republican Party has no clothes. Due to a splattering of executive orders by President Donald Trump, conservatives are totally exposed. Everyone can finally see who they really are as opposed to who they pretend to be.

The first hint came this week when Trump issued a blanket pardon for more than 1,...Read more
