In February 2026, the U.S. House passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility America Act to require proof of U.S. citizenship when registering to vote in federal elections and an approved form of government photo ID to cast a ballot.

Every House Republican voted for the SAVE America Act, but every Democrat except one voted against this ...Read more

Critics of the Trump administration's proposed Golden Dome strategic defense system fall into two camps. Camp One I'll call "The Perpetual Rejects." Label Camp Two "The Nervous Debtors."

In the 1980s, The Perpetual Rejects ridiculed President Ronald Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, calling it "Star Wars." Perpetual Rejects argued SDI ...Read more

New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is weaponizing the apparatus of city government to crush landlords and seize their property, violating state law, the U.S. Constitution and fundamental fairness.

If you're not a landlord, you may think this doesn't affect you -- but think again.

Landlords are just the first: Anyone who owns anything is in ...Read more

Did you celebrate labor last Monday, Labor Day?

I did.

But not organized labor.

At least I get to choose.

Organized labor isn't a fan of choice.

Joining CBS in NYC, I was told: "You must join (and pay dues to) SAG-AFTRA (Screen Actors Guild -- American Federation of TV and Radio Artists)."

Why? I didn't want to. "I'm not an...Read more

Vince Lombardi almost did not play high school football.

When he graduated from eighth grade in a public school in Brooklyn, he decided to attend a Catholic seminary and study to be a priest.

"The choice he made, Cathedral College of the Immaculate Conception, a diocesan preparatory seminary, reflected not only what he wanted to study but ...Read more

Leftists and Democrats say the craziest things, and they can do it without fearing that a practitioner of the "fact-checking" arts is going to label them "Pants on Fire" liars on the internet. Occasionally, I will tweet these outrageous statements under the title "Zero Fear of Fact Checkers."

Many of these bizarre bangers are about race and ...Read more

The world has spent $9 trillion to combat climate change since 2020. That is a World War II-type number.

Except we won WWII. But now even the left admits that this torrent of money has accomplished ... nothing.

According to ESG Today, citing a 2026 United Nations report, the "multinational goal to limit global temperature increase to 1.5 C, ...Read more

UNIONTOWN, Pennsylvania -- Scott Dunn did not get a call from Washington. Instead, he received calls from his constituents.

The chairman of the Fayette County Board of Commissioners had watched the March announcement like everyone else: a $17 billion natural gas generation hub somewhere in southwestern Pennsylvania, with 4.3 gigawatts of ...Read more

A farmer can't make his plants grow, but he can create the conditions that lead to their flourishing. A society can't make its citizens virtuous, but it can nurture the institutions that lead to virtuous citizens.

Great thinkers in Western civilization have long noted the importance of virtue. In Politics, Aristotle declared, "The best life, ...Read more

The other day, New York Mayor Zohran Mamdani told Qatari state media that the United States was "spending tens of billions of dollars on killing people" when that money "could have been used to make life easier" for the public. "There always seems to be money for war," he went on, "but not to feed the poor."

The United States, in reality, ...Read more

The race for control of the Senate next January is a dead heat. Conventional wisdom suggests the contests in swingy states like Michigan, Ohio, North Carolina and Georgia could prove decisive. And they might.

But it's possible that the fate of the chamber known as the "world's greatest deliberative body" will come down to a state not usually ...Read more

In 2007, Hugo Chavez sent men with rifles into the Orinoco Belt. They walked into oilfields Americans had surveyed, Americans had drilled and American engineering had made productive and told ExxonMobil and ConocoPhillips to take a minority stake in their own work or get out. Those two got out. Chevron stayed and ate two decades of abuse for ...Read more

In one of his Truth Social bombs, President Donald Trump insisted we should rename Lake Ontario to Lake America after Canada refused to accept his trade negotiation terms. It obviously echoes his renaming of the Gulf of Mexico to the Gulf of America.

It's easy to find these whole geographic kerfuffles unnecessary. But the media hated the ...Read more

History illuminates the present. I've been reading Stephen Kotkin's widely and justly praised multivolume biography of Joseph Stalin and have encountered many passages that illuminate the present.

I learned, for example, that Stalin met the exiled Vladimir Lenin more than a decade before the October 1917 revolution, and that by the early ...Read more

President Trump's tariffs aren't popular, but he's found a way to make them even less so -- a trade war with America's most inoffensive ally.

When one thinks of countries that deserve to be subjected to a steady stream of insults (it's Lake America now, not Lake Ontario) and a punishing regime of tariffs, Canada is far down the list.

Ottawa ...Read more

The recent suppression of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed's torture-tainted confessions at Guantanamo Bay is far more than a victory for a defendant. It is a victory for the Constitution.

The United States government today alleges that Mohammed was the mastermind of the Sept. 11 attacks, a crime of historic horror that demands accountability. For nine...Read more

The trial of Lindsay Clancy forces us to confront a tragedy almost beyond human comprehension: A mother killed her three young children -- 5-year-old Cora, 3-year-old Dawson and 8-month-old Callan -- inside their Massachusetts home.

We must begin with those children. They were innocent, vulnerable and entitled to the protection of the person ...Read more
