Positive childhood experiences, including states of mind and being such as supportive parental relationships, very good health, as well as consistent religious attendance, were strongly linked with higher levels of hope during adulthood.

History will remember Donald J. Trump not just as the 45th and 47th commander in chief, but as one of our nation's greatest defenders of freedom. Mount Rushmore awaits him.

IVF, a widely used yet costly fertility treatment, was a key topic during the 2024 election cycle. A single IVF treatment cycle can cost tens of thousands of dollars. Many couples often require more than one cycle for a successful pregnancy. Help is on the way.

Electric vehicles are a niche market. Confined mostly to moral exhibitionists, urban dwellers and old folks who don't drive much anymore. This is fine with us, as long as we no longer have to send them tax dollars to facilitate the purchase.

Emergency bills move fast, face weak scrutiny and become irresistible means for unrelated projects or those that Congress would never approve otherwise.

It’s time for a complete and total shutdown of China-linked research partnerships, technology infiltration, and influence operations. Call it extreme — but appeasement has failed. Every day we wait, the red hand reaches a little deeper into America's institutions.

A short pause in construction during the shutdown, would send a signal that leadership understands perception and priorities. In fairness, Trump's decision to fund the ballroom privately does set a precedent worth noting.

Those who are downplaying results as merely "blue-state voters being blue-state voters" are missing the point. It's not that Democrats are voting for candidates running as Democrats. It's what the Democratic Party now stands for and what their voters are voting for.

Lessons from Israel, and Ukraine, have proven that modern air wars are not won solely by $20-million tanks or sophisticated fighter jets. Full spectrum air wars now include fleets of small, intelligent, and relentlessly adaptive unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs), "drones."

From the prophets to the apostles to the church fathers, those who have taken Scripture seriously have affirmed this truth: God's dealings with Israel reveal his character. To deny that is to question the reliability of God himself.

Neighborhoods are populated by new ethnic voters, Hispanics from Central and South America, Southern Asians and Middle Easterners. There is also a contingent of young white college-educated voters who have rejected center-right views. They have self-confidence that borders on arrogance.

The public believes inflation has gotten worse. The contrast between Trump’s extraordinary foreign policy triumphs and the lack of visible economic relief at home could become a serious liability for the administration heading into the midterms.

No doubt, Big Tech will marshal their resources to fight authorities, as they have before, but regulators can, and should, use this moment to carefully examine mergers in the entertainment industry that will have an impact on free speech.

When the Partial-Birth Abortion Ban Act came up again in the House in 2003, Pelosi again voted against it. But that year, then-President George W. Bush signed it into law.

Politicians, theologians, and scientists should be able to get along as long as none of them gets too big for their professional britches.

A Mamdani victory will ignite wholesale legislative attacks on property owners, charter schools, law enforcement and businesses all across New York state.

Yesterday’s off-year elections should have been a wake-up call for Americans — particularly New York City’s mayoral election.

The New York City mayoral election is a choice between two choices: bad and disastrous.

Of the many, many people who talk to me about "The Peace" and "The End of the War," I have to say that the vast majority of them are wrong. They don't understand the dynamics of the very complicated situation President Trump threw himself into and the success that Trump accomplished.

Expect Trade Policy Chaos If Trump's Tariffs Lose at SCOTUS

Trump's fusion of business techniques with statecraft turned deal-making into a bold vision. Egypt's el-Sisi called it "the last chance" for peace in the region. In the complex environment of the Mideast, that is quite an achievement. Trump would call it "historic." He'd be right.

When a movement begins to confuse outrage with courage and prejudice with patriotism, it loses its soul. To celebrate Tucker Carlson in the wake of Charlie Kirk's death is not a tribute to Kirk's ideals; it's a betrayal of them. Freedom of speech is not freedom from moral responsibility.

Many dysfunctional urban school districts have for decades hired unqualified educators as superintendents and other high-level administrative positions, solely based on their race or ethnicity rather than professional competence and experience.

Why did top White House aides try to cover up Biden's decreasing capacity? They may have told themselves that only Biden could beat Trump, which he did in 2020. But then the experienced hand invited chaos.

What about all those "rich people" who prospective mayor Mamdani disapproves of? Who can blame them for leaving and carrying huge chunks of Manhattan's tax base with them as working households are left behind to cover shrinking budgets.

There was a moral opposition to the Vietnam War and a moral basis for racial equality in the Civil Rights movement. Today's urban divisiveness and violence is greater than in the 1960s, yet there is not a clear moral basis behind today's street warfare.

Backed by the Democratic Socialists of America, Mamdani's platform reads like a manifesto, not a municipal plan: abolish the police, cancel rent, redistribute wealth, and fundamentally remake New York’s economy and institutions.

If voters choose Mamdani, New York loses. And with it, America risks losing a little more of its dynamism, and its soul.

Seniors might be protected from the financial consequences of these errors for the time being. But taxpayers won't, as they are footing the bill for billions of dollars in new subsidies that shouldn't have been necessary.

The documentary, directed by Michael Pack, has been powerfully fitted tongue-and-groove-style from war correspondent photos, bodycam footage, and subsequent interviews of the vets. Unlike earlier wars, the images are crystal clear.

Despite being grounded in the Western tradition (one that frankly should be expected in the formation of intelligence professionals loyal to America), IWP graduates are often immersed in nations whose values are fundamentally opposed to ours.

The legal profession has had decades to police its own excesses and has chosen not to. If lawyers won’t act, lawmakers must.

America must accept reality. Strength deters evil. Accountability constrains aggression. Sentiment alone has never disarmed Hamas or restrained Iran.

We don't want to encourage investors to seek safe harbor in risk-free investments. The millionaires and the billionaires are the people we do want to take risks with their fortunes. We want them to discover and seed-invest in the next Microsoft or Google or Walmart.

The days of Democrats using government as their own political slush fund needs to end now. The case for more and bigger government has been discredited. America's big government expansion has totally and completely failed. Propping up failure is unacceptable.

Despite persistent calls for action, Powell has remained slow to respond to the economic pain Americans feel daily.

Business leaders support Trump because he is a winner. Conversely, they will reject Harris, a two-time loser as a presidential candidate. If she runs a third time for president, and is given the nomination, it will only be a charm for Republicans, who will win the presidency again.

President Donald J. Trump has proven he works nonstop. From sunrise to well past midnight. Why? To keep his promises to the American people.

The recent endorsement of Mamdani by U.S. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., cemented the fact that Democrats no longer believe straddling both sides of the ideological fence suits an electoral base that has moved farther left over the last decade.

If the government does not reopen in a day or two, the welfare benefits will not flow to the 42 million Americans drawing them. If the furnace blast of flaming social media posts, this week is any indication, there is a huge potential for riots and mass thefts.

The giant, sucking sound of New Yorkers escaping through the Lincoln and Holland tunnels into the Garden State would drown out Gotham's ceaselessly honking horns and the authentic urban gibberish of local lunatics.

Tearing Down Healthcare's Middle Men Won't Make Meds Cheaper

As parents, we need to take that danger more seriously — the danger of treating evil as entertainment, of letting darkness masquerade as play.

The protests, threats, and street violence spreading through Western capitals are not incidental side effects; they are early warnings of what a premature state, born of fury rather than foundation, would resemble on a national scale.

Amidst a changing geopolitical landscape, America and European countries need to seize opportunities to secure their influence and meet their needs, lest they get left behind on the global stage in the face of the fierce competition by China, supported by its allies.

No Kings, has no leadership, no program, no platform, no scheduled future events, no logical argument in a land that already has no monarchs, and no ideology beyond a shared disdain for democratically elected and reelected U.S. President Donald J. Trump.

Using other races, cultures and religions to promote untruths is despicable, yet it's become an acceptable tactic of the left. Enough.

Why not just make everything free? Why hasn’t anyone ever thought of this before? How blessed New York City residents are. Their lives are about to become effortless, carefree. Utopia is coming. All this and sharia law too, almost too much joy to contain.

Mamdani is going to take a walk on Wall Street; the place which provides the economic foundation for New York City, New York State, New Jersey and Connecticut. Mamdani will make a money-grab for a stock transfer tax or some equivalent golden egg

An essential part of communication is non-verbal nuance. Speech and voice variations are accompanied by subtle glances, hesitant pauses, and empathetic nods. In contrast, AI simplifies communication. Vital human elements are stripped away.

Republicans can't afford to look heartless. But neither can Congress afford to keep ignoring the nation's deepening fiscal crisis. Republicans must be flexible on subsidies, but they must be firm on one thing: invoke the nuclear option and end the shutdown now.

The chief problem with the lawsuits against the Trump tariffs is that they are founded on the false premise that these tariffs will harm, rather than help, U.S. manufacturers and retailers.

The most destructive and certainly odious way that the Democrats have lost their influence is through Trump Derangement Syndrome, or TDS. It's so infectious that even the most thoughtful mental health professional falls prey to this abnormal behavior.

Indeed, SDI would likely have been strangled in the crib had it not been led by a senior well-qualified technical individual (Gen. Abrahamson), who reported directly to the Secretary of Defense and then, in effect, President Reagan.

While we're in our 250th birthyear as a nation, counting down to July 4, 2026, we should remember God's help for us to become independent in the first place, including the victory at Yorktown.

Given Iran’s geopolitical position, it plays a critical role in shaping peace in the Mideast. But only a government with a proven record of resisting both the Shah's dictatorship and the current theocracy can guarantee peace, a govt free of religious or secular authoritarianism.

If you wonder why Social Security is facing a shortfall, it's because it was set up to be a pay as you go program, with active workers and their employers each paying 6.2% of the worker's salary in FICA taxes, that were intended to cover benefits.

The current class of left-wing historians will predictably run Trump down, but do they really count? They are liberal clichés, performing for the left-wing parlor game, utterly predictable with little real credibility outside the liberal salons of the academy, MSNBC and CNN.

Instead of importing failed socialist policies, we should double down on market-based solutions that promote competition, transparency, and patient choice.

Given the sordid history of the Nazis and the Gestapo, it's really saddening that so many Democrats, especially Blacks and ethnic minorities, would trivialize the millions of deaths during the Holocaust by comparing ICE to Hitler's Gestapo.
