I'm an American citizen -- born and raised in the greatest nation in world history, ever blessed by God. I've fought for free speech my whole life.

And I've certainly practiced it more than anyone on earth -- I'm the loudest MAGA mouth in the world!

The stock market of late has been on a veritable roller coaster, Elon Musk's Department of Government Efficiency continues to ruffle feathers, Iran marches ever harrowingly closer to a nuclear weapon, and Russia and Ukraine get tantalizingly close to a ceasefire. But the national political conversation this week has curiously tended to focus ...Read more

On the same day that Islamic State terrorist Shamsud-Din Jabbar murdered 15 Americans by plowing a car into a crowd in New Orleans, thousands of Hamas and Hezbollah supporters, many decked out in Islamist garb, descended onto Times Square chanting, "Globalize the intifada."

One of the organizers of the protest was Columbia University Apartheid ...Read more

Contrary to what some supporters of President Donald Trump claim and the President himself asserts, tariffs are not paid by foreign governments, but by the American people. Importers pay taxes on each part or whole product imported into the country. They then raise the price of goods to recoup the American people's cost.

Mahmoud Khalil could have been cooked up in a lab to offend -- no, worse -- to disgust me. And yet, despite temptation, I cannot endorse what the Trump administration is doing to him.

Based upon the postings of his group, Columbia University Apartheid Divest, Khalil, who was born in Syria, seems to hold grotesque opinions. CUAD, a leader of the...Read more

Trans woman activist Dylan Mulvaney did a happy-go-lucky softball interview tour to promote the book "Paper Doll: Notes from a Late Bloomer." The "mainstream" media are out of the mainstream on trans issues, and their extreme fawning and flattery only underlines it.

On "CBS Mornings," correspondent Natalie Morales sounded like a supporter: "...Read more

Tendentious - Marked by or favoring a particular point of view; partisan.

This week, it started to look like the ...Read more

SAN DIEGO -- Our opinions are often the sum of our experiences. What human beings believe can frequently be traced back to who we are, where we're from, who we love, what we've done and what tribes we call our own. Our personal journey shapes how we see the world.

And so I find myself diving into the tale of Mahmoud Khalil -- the Palestinian ...Read more

It's a trope to say that Donald Trump's opposition has been shell-shocked and rudderless in the wake of his election victory and his fast start out of the gate.

Not to fear, though. The Left has hit on its next big project -- an intifada against the country's largest maker of electric cars.

The progressive fear and loathing of Elon Musk now ...Read more

When an invitation from Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and the renowned Professor Alexander Dugin to visit them in Moscow arrived in my inbox, it was actually the culmination of a series of emails and telephone calls from Russian-American friends giving me a heads up. Still, it startled me.

President Donald Trump pulled a staggering $400 million in federal funding from Columbia University, one of many hotbeds of antisemitism and pro-terror protests that have sprung up in the wake of the Oct. 7 attacks against Israel by Hamas.

The campus was, for weeks, occupied by rioters who took control of Columbia's core areas and even, at ...Read more

Since the 1950s, every effort to reduce the size and scope of government has been bulldozed by a political establishment more concerned with furthering its own interests than those of the American people. Between sacred cows and special interest groups, we're always told why nothing can get cut.

With the exception of Social Security, there is...Read more

It should go without saying, but America does not need more Hamas sympathizers.

Yet this simple truth seems to confound a wide variety of commentators across the political spectrum. This week, the White House announced that Immigration and Customs Enforcement would be deporting an apparently green card-holding Columbia University graduate ...Read more

The 36 million who watched President Donald Trump's address to Congress also watched as Congressional Black Caucus member, Rep. Al Green, shook his cane and shouted at the president.

Late on March 11, the Trump administration announced Ukraine had agreed to a 30-day ceasefire in the Russia-Ukraine War.

There's trouble ahead for New Yorkers distressed about crime levels.

New York City's Democratic establishment, including leading mayoral candidates and the City Council majority, are determined to downsize or eliminate the city's jails altogether. They've drunk the decarceration Kool-Aid -- and they're convinced that jails do more harm than ...Read more

Climate activists have found a new way to force us to pay more for energy. New York and Vermont passed laws that will raise the price of oil, gas and electricity by taxing the past. New York's new law demands fossil fuel companies pay $75 billion for carbon emissions dating back to the year 2000. Other Democrat-controlled states plan to ...Read more
