There was no legislative reason for Trump to oppose the stop-gap funding bill hammered out in sort of a bipartisan manner by both chambers of Congress. It had too much disaster relief with no way to pay for it, a generous farm bill for red state lawmakers, and incredibly, a pay increase for lawmakers. Advertisement

The loony liberals of ABC News’s The View were in a festive spirit Thursday morning as they kicked off their discussion with a baseless conspiracy theory that billionaire Elon Musk and Vice President J.D. Vance were plotting to have President-elect Trump assassinated and usurp control of the government by pushing him down a flight of

As the United States prepares for a new presidential administration focused on mass deportations, leaders in San Diego County have chosen to defy these plans by passing a controversial policy that fortifies and expands sanctuary protections for illegal aliens.

Digital creator Montana Tucker has a beef with her fellow “influencers.” “What drives me crazy,” Tucker says, “Is someone who has influence but isn’t using it for good.

The Regime Media went into full meltdown mode over the death of the 1500-page cromnibus bill that went down in flames once DOGE chairs Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy became aware of some of the bill’s provisions. D.C. media reacted at the very un-D.C. pressure placed upon the cromnibus with equal parts shock and horror.

After ABC News settled with Donald Trump for $16 million over George Stephanopoulos incessantly lying about Trump being held “liable for rape,” the hot concept in media panic was the “chilling effect.” MSNBC commentator Barbara McQuade lamented “the chilling effect it might have on people who otherwise would be critical of Trump.” Is there a

Migrants traveling through Mexico to reach the United States feel a deep sense of uncertainty. That uncertainty stems from Donald Trump’s victory in November and his promise to seal the southern border and target those living in the U.S. illegally. However, much of the uncertainty centers on what will happen when migrants arrive at the

President Joe Biden blamed alternate news outlets for the election results and Americans who were angry about the economy. Biden made the comments while being interviewed on the “Pitchfork Economics” podcast Tuesday.

Kroger stores are reportedly trying to make baby murder as cheap and convenient as possible, with abortion pills for only $7.

Communist Chinese government-tied TikTok just lost yet another frantic appeal to halt federal legislation that could kill its American market success. The Chinese-owned app recently lost its case before a federal appeals court, which ruled that the ultimatum taking effect on Jan. 19 is constitutional and justified in light of the app’s national security risks.

It might seem as though leftists have had their way without any problem at all since Joe Biden got elected president in 2020. Seems as though the federal government, the legacy media, lawmakers, and Democrats have simply looked the other way while the lawless left took over on the streets and made many people’s lives

I might not be a doctor, but as early as January 2022 — 16 months before the approval of the first RSV vaccine — I warned that these shots could make children sicker from the virus. For decades, the industry failed to produce an RSV vaccine after an attempt in 1967 was terminated because it

Outgoing CBS Evening News anchor Norah O’Donnell is making the most of her remaining time at the Tiffany Network. Tonight’s final story stood as an ode to Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson, and to her cameo performance in a Broadway play. Watch the full report for yourself below, and try not to be overwhelmed with cringe:

When Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) is in our headlines, it’s almost always for something negative. She is a far-left Hamas apologist who advocates for the rights of biological men to use women’s bathrooms and perpetuates the Trump-is-a-fascist narrative. Despite her obvious flaws, AOC’s decision to challenge Rep. Gerry Connolly (D-Va.) for ranking member of the House

If policymakers want strong results, history and economic reality identify small businesses as the catalyst for growth. As a new Republican Congress and the incoming Trump administration view their menu of options, it’s imperative they view things from an appetizer and main-course perspective. The main course is bonus depreciation and access to capital, and the

Homeschooling my children has given me quite the education. For example, never again will I doubt the capacity of some people to opine on topics they know nothing about. Take Dr. Waitman W. Beorn, a historian who specializes in “Holocaust studies.” He says you’re not qualified to homeschool your kids. Apparently, Dr. Beorn isn’t all

I had been watching Father Mark Beard’s homilies online for a while before I found out he’d died months before. The shock of this news — Beard was only 62 and had been a priest for a short 11 years — was compounded by the sheer life force of the man on my screen. In

The Biden-Harris regime remains blasé about the strange drones that are appearing all over the northeast, and in the face of the regime’s inaction, the fiendish thingies, whatever they are and whatever they’re doing, are growing more assertive.

Democrats have long been accused of sidelining the true spirit of Christmas, trading tradition for a bland, politically correct version of the holiday season. Nowadays, it feels like you can’t see a Christmas tree or Santa Claus on television without equal opportunity being given to a Hanukkah menorah or that weird menorah-like thing for Kwanzaa—a

It was 25 years ago this week (December 14, 1999) that conservative powerhouse William F. Buckley recorded the final episode of his award-winning talk show, Firing Line.

Hollywood sequels rarely achieve the magic of the original, but “Gladiator II” comes close. Except for the familiar populist framework of a lone man taking on “the system” against all odds, the echoes to the original are sufficiently distant that the new movie feels fresh and original. Plus, it turns out that Ridley Scott’s blockbuster

Bullets spilled out of the gun like loose teeth in a nightmare. I squeezed the trigger again: nothing. Then I performed a “tap-rack-bang” — the gun equivalent of blowing into a Nintendo cartridge.
