The cartel-driven security crisis in the Western Hemisphere is no longer a law enforcement challenge. It is a national security threat, and it must be treated as one.

History doesn't remember partisan maneuvering. It remembers leadership. What the United States does now will be measured globally

Trump and Netanyahu didn't start a war, they're trying to end one, and bring closure to Pete Hegseth’s "brothers who never came home," and with any luck, return Iran to the civilized, non-Islamic society it once was.

Only hours into a war that many argue has lasted decades, there is little information presented to indicate whether the most consequential decision of the Trump presidency is trending to a great victory, or a trap to ensnare a noble agenda.

Democrats haven't left the immigration lawlessness of the Biden years behind -- on the contrary, they're more committed to it than ever. And it costs lives.

The administration's tariff policy isn't working. Americans already know it, which is why strong majorities are firmly opposed. The tariffs' legality will continue to be litigated. The talking points will be recycled. For now, the steep price tag will remain ours to pay.

The UAE is on the wrong side of history. Its embrace of warlords abroad and extremists in Europe may feel expedient today, but it's laying the groundwork for instability that will eventually land on America's doorstep. The United States rein in destructive impulses.

The Derrick. In a less than a month, it will be gone. Its passing will likely draw less attention than the jobs recently cut at The Washington Post, or the positions eliminated at the Atlanta Journal-Constitution. It's part of a crisis no one seems able to solve.

Even before 2019, the United States spent more on healthcare than any other country. Healthcare remains the largest and most troubling cost driver.

There is only one solution to keep peace. The West must discredit and defeat the Russian imperial project and its policy of revisionism. For lasting peace, it must try to greatly moderate and restructure the widely shared Russian political culture of imperial fantasy.

In the SOTU, I anticipate Trump will lay out ways to work with Congress to enact bipartisan tax and deregulatory policies that will keep the momentum going to lower prices. Charting the path forward is critical, but we should take a moment to cheer the progress.

Hospitals providing little charity care should not qualify for a program intended for safety-net providers.

If the United States falls behind in emerging technologies, it will not be because Americans lacked the talent to lead. It will be because we allowed unelected elites to decide its limits.

Terror thrives in vacuums of governance and hope. Nigerian-American collaboration, grounded in mutual interest and shared responsibility, offers a pathway toward filling those vacuums, and toward securing a more stable future for West Africa and beyond.

Until now, the broadcast industry, following the FCC's lead, had taken the position that talk shows, like news shows, were exempt from the "public interest" requirement that stations must give rival candidates equal opportunities to buy time and appear on TV.

Trust is not built by telling stories that are easy. It's built by telling stories that matter, especially when they are complex, uncomfortable, or politically inconvenient.

Making everybody heirs of everyone could create new problems or intensify old ones. Entering the U.S. illegally would become even more attractive. We might need to require a few years of residence before immigrants can inherit. And one way or another, we would need to get control of the borders.

United by the values Reagan articulated at the Brandenburg Gate, the United States and its NATO allies defeated Soviet communism.

At some point, we have to stop confusing activity with effectiveness. We built a response infrastructure designed for antisemitism as it existed a generation ago. But the virus has mutated. Today's antisemitism is not confined.

Running to the cameras and trashing President Trump and his team will always get you face time on the legacy media.

Does anyone think there would be such a national outcry against ICE by these and other noted Democrats, their left-wing comrades and mainstream media bedfellows if most of the protesters and the criminals they were defending were Black?

Extradition law is widely abused already. INTERPOL's Red Notices are international arrest warrants scandalously used by America’s enemies like Russia, China, and Iran to harass dissidents, freeze assets and force political opponents to return to be persecuted.

Raising taxes risks a costly backlash. California just lost Google founders Sergey Brin and Larry Page last year, and Facebook founder Mark Zuckerberg just bought a riverside mansion in Miami from the founder of the Jersey Mike's sandwich shop chain.

Jimmy Lai became a human rights advocate after the Communists squashed the pro-democracy movement in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square in 1989. Appeals are now being made by influential heads of state to void his sentence. The Holy See should do the same.

Perhaps it's time for some changes. Driving the division at the FDA: Someone on the far-left who, it can be argued, can't be described as supportive of the president's agenda. Perceptible chaos is emergent.

Consumer confidence in how companies handle data has eroded, leaving some demanding transparency and control while others feel helpless, hopeless, and resigned.

No Contrived, Angry Values Here: TurningPoint USA's Half-Time

The anti-abortion movement should interpret the president's order, coupled with his expansion of the policy that protects Americans from funding abortion overseas, as a loud signal that we will not take part in any endeavor framing abortion as a human right.

The fighting is in Ukraine, but a move toward peace will come only when the Russian government sees the war as being more costly politically than continuing the fighting.

AI will define the next era of global power. If people who are embarrassed by power are allowed to write the rules, America won’t lose because it moved too fast. We’ll lose because we were convinced to stand still.
