The Silent Majority Is Applauding

The silent majority in Washington, D.C., and across our nation is applauding. Even one crime is one crime too many.

On Aug. 11, President Donald Trump, invoking Section 740 of the District of Columbia Home Rule Act passed by the United States Congress, declared a "crime emergency in the District of Columbia" and ordered the deployment of 800 ...Read more

New Climate Report Deserves to Be Debated, Not Silenced

A new report from the Department of Energy concludes that, yes, the climate is changing and humans contribute to it -- but no, it's not necessarily the impending catastrophe we've been warned about. In another era, an agency charting this kind of middle course would be unremarkable. Today, it feels revolutionary.

The debate over climate ...Read more

Do Democrats Hear Themselves?

From the Right / Laura Hollis /

Vice President JD Vance's handling of the press is masterful, and some of his interactions with them have taken on iconic status.

For example, in January, Vance was being interviewed by Margaret Brennan on "Face the Nation." While asking Vance about the Trump administration's immigration policies, Brennan protested that Afghan refugees who ...Read more

Washington, D.C.: Then and Now

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

I was born in Washington, D.C., at the end of 1942. Growing up in the suburbs there was so little crime it made the front page in the city’s three newspapers. Today, unless someone who works on Capitol Hill is murdered, or associated with a prominent business, stories are usually buried in the Metro section. Then, you could walk the streets at...Read more

Drug Cartels Are Proxy Armies, So Use the Military

From the Right / Austin Bay /

Sometime after 2002, Communist China began subtly transforming organized Latin American drug trafficking syndicates. The gangs, the biggest with the hired guns, money and political connections to rate as cartels, continued their usual felony and smuggling operations but added an additional line of operation: hybrid warfare entities, shape-...Read more

Bernie Sanders and the Education Oligarchy

When Sen. Bernie Sanders of Vermont, who calls himself a democratic socialist, appeared on "The Late Show With Stephen Colbert" in May, Colbert asked him: "Why is socialism cool again, Bernie?"

"I think people are looking at this country today and they are seeing incredible greed," Sanders responded, "and they are seeing that -- in the ...Read more

From the Right / Debra Saunders /

Gavin Newsom's Misguided Redistricting Initiative

From the Right / Star Parker /

California Gov. Gavin Newsom is upset with Texas.

There's a reason he should be upset. California companies are pulling up in droves and moving to the Lone Star State and elsewhere.

But that isn't what's bothering him. Newsom cares about politics and power, not markets and business.

He's upset that the Texas state legislature is moving to ...Read more

Mamdani Has So Many Bad Ideas, I Can't Fit Them In This Second Column, Either!

From the Right / John Stossel /

The Socialist politicians are coming! In Minneapolis, Democratic Socialist Omar Fateh is favored to be Minneapolis' next mayor. In New York City, bettors say there's an 80% chance that socialist Zohran Mamdani will be the next mayor.

The Jan. 6 Riot Isn't DC's 'Most Violent Moment'

From the Right / Tim Graham /

When President Donald Trump called a press conference on Aug. 11 to discuss how he would use emergency powers to federalize the D.C. police and deploy the National Guard, the knee-jerk anti-Trump media launched into complaining Trump was doing something dramatic about the crime-riddled District of Columbia.

But the most obnoxious spin was ...Read more

Trump announces a $50 million big game hunt for the gullible

From the Right / Rachel Marsden /

PARIS — Here we go again. Another round of “maximum pressure” against the leader of a country that won’t bend the knee to Washington. And this time, they’re letting the American public think that they can actually play along for a cash prize. What could possibly go wrong?

As always with Washington publicity stunts, it seems legit ...Read more

How the Left Feeds Hunger in Gaza

From the Right / Victor Joecks /

If Western leftists cared less about starving children in Gaza, there would be fewer starving children in Gaza.

Food shortages have been a major concern in the Gaza Strip. U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee recently said that those living there face "hunger and deprivation and possibly starvation."

Leftists blame Israel.

"The forced ...Read more

Back to Safer Schools?

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

As President Trump prepares to head to Alaska to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin to “stop the killing” in Russia and Ukraine, what is being done to stop school shootings in America as millions of children begin returning to their schools this week?

In my school days we had two drills – fire drills and hiding under desks in case...Read more

America Must Never Apologize for Dropping the Bombs on Japan

From the Right / Josh Hammer /

This week marks the 80th anniversary of President Harry Truman's fateful decision to drop atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (respectively, Aug. 6 and 9, 1945). To date, those two bombings represent the only instances in which nuclear weapons have been deployed in war. At least 150,000 Japanese perished -- a majority...Read more

RFK Jr.'s War on Vaccines and Public Health Continues

From the Right / David Harsanyi /

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is trying to convince Americans that vaccines will hurt them. No matter what superficial throwaway statements he offers the public to the contrary, that's the obvious goal.

In the newest front in his cause, the Department of Health and Human Services secretary has canceled $500 million in mRNA research, an effort President...Read more

The Future Requires Dinosaurs

From the Right / Erick Erickson /

Long before man walked the Earth, God in His providence created the animals, then sent a massive asteroid that collided with the Earth, wiped out the dinosaurs and other large animals, piled rubble, heat and pressure on top of them and turned them into fossil fuels. Or something like that. God, generously, provided a source of energy a long, ...Read more

Hollywood's Writers Wage War on 'King' Trump!

From the Right / Tim Graham /

The entertainment press found it very important to report that Hollywood thinks President Donald Trump is an authoritarian. This is still somehow considered "news." Over 2,300 members of the Writers Guild felt compelled to speak out in an open letter because they believe in their "role in a healthy democracy."

In 2024, democracy was healthy, ...Read more
