The debate over climate change and responses has become so polarized that acknowledging the problem of human-driven warming without accepting a narrative that can sound apocalyptic invites attacks from all sides.
Past Time to Brand Muslim Brotherhood a Terrorist Organization
Western elites have allowed themselves to be duped by the Muslim Brotherhood's two-faced strategy. Abroad, they openly sow the seeds of jihad, cheer for a global caliphate, and preach for the destruction of Israel and Western civilization more broadly.
President Trump Can Defeat Muslim Brotherhood's Grip on Mideast
President Trump has already proven that he is uniquely capable of breaking the old patterns of failure in the Mideast. He knows that strength and clarity — not appeasement — are the keys to lasting peace.
Do Democrats Ever Hear Themselves?

Late Night Comedy's Trail of Tears No Joke, Stay Tuned
What's galling is the left’s refusal to accept market verdict as rational, logical, and final. Comedians aimed to preach, and proselytize upon our sorrows, and it backfired. The joke is on us for letting things fester thus far. Comedy's trail of tears is no joke.

MAHA About Bringing Nourishment to the Poor, Not Shame
If you’re on public assistance, your groceries should nourish you, not accelerate the onset of chronic illness. It’s not cruel. What’s cruel is watching the federal government subsidize obesity, diabetes, and heart disease—then turning around and spending billions more trying to treat them.

The U.S. economy is innovating new modes of work that many Black women thrive in. This administration has stopped the Biden crackdown on flexible work. Protecting worker freedom in these ways will actually help Black women, all women, and all workers.

Aug. 15 reminds us of what is at stake and how every tool of negotiations, warfare, deception, and ruthlessness are deployed in the service of essential political goals.
Mamdani Democratic Socialist Platform: Roadmap to a Dead End
It's incumbent upon sane Democrats to oppose Mamdani and his socialist platitudes. If they fail to stop him, they will be responsible for his socialist virus infecting New York City and spreading across the nation, leaving in its tracks, fiscal, economic, and social carnage.

While the who, what, and why of their ill-advised departure continue to be hammered out, the how may be of particular importance to Texans and the country at large.

Powerful Backing, Partners Enable Israel's Mideast Security Redraw
Some hesitate to call Israel a "regional superpower." But the facts support the claim. That doesn’t mean its dominance is unchallenged. Iran still retains proxies and influence, but Israel’s power projection now eclipses Tehran’s fraying network.
We've Arrived at the Dawning of School Choice for Kids
Would you send your kids to a school where only one in seven students is learning basic math? I wouldn't. No one should have to.

What if the United States were to go directly to the Greenlanders themselves and offer to pay each of the Greenlanders a specific sum of money to vote in favor of a national referendum authorizing Greenland to join the United States?
Another Trump Right Call: Federalizing D.C.
Washington hews heavily anti-Trump, with more than 90% of its vote going to Democrats, and even its small community of Republicans having favored Nikki Haley in her primary challenge to Trump in last year’s race for the GOP presidential nomination.
Mamdani Channels Outsider Image, Entices the Uninformed
Democracy is a stable conservative movement, it does not marry well with temporary fads. It adjusts and changes slowly so as to avoid huge revolutions. But today’s voting public — especially youth, demand immediate change. That’s what makes Mamdani enticing.

Housing Reform Done Right Can Save Adams, Halt Mamdani
Tie affordability to neighborhood median incomes, not inflated regional figures that let individuals earning $179,000 qualify for "affordable" housing. Require one-for-one replacement of demolished rent-regulated units and mandate more family-sized apartments.
Scaring, Bullying Jewish Schoolkids Is on the Ballot in Nov.
The Trump administration, which is cracking down on the abuse of Jewish students on college campuses, needs to also turn attention to the public schools. And people of all faiths need to object. Jews shouldn't have to fight this battle alone.
Defend US Electric Grid From 'Made in China'
Congress acted to force the ByteDance, the China-based owner of TikTok, to sell out to a U.S. concern. Securing the electrical grid, especially given the prospects for an all-out war someday with China, seems a bit more important.

Tested, US-Approved: Why We Need Ukrainian Drones

Here Come the Socialists, The Danger Is Great
Hardline socialists have now been nominated by Democrats in mayoral races in New York City and Minneapolis. The election of Donald Trump in 2024 amounted to American voters saying "Stop!" But the work has just begun, and the danger is great.

Donald Trump has accomplished more than the previous administration, so now is an opportune time for Democrats to offer credible programs that will benefit everyone, but they've shown no interest in anything but their own self-aggrandizement.
U.S. Military Doctors True Leaders in Medicine
We live in a dangerous world and these are challenging times globally. U.S. military medicine remains beyond wholly committed to relentlessly battling that which ails so many of our dedicated U.S. service members.
Mexico Enables Cartels, Trump Calls Their Bluff
While Mexican officials like to parade their "efforts" to curb the flow of illegal drugs, the truth is they’ve been failing for decades. Every gram of fentanyl entering our country represents a failure of Mexico to meet its most basic responsibility as our neighbor.
Why Democrats Should Want Independents Voting in Their Primaries
I opposed open primaries because I believe that America’s traditional two-party tradition, despite its flaws, needed to be strengthened, not weakened.

Where is justice for the Druze? If the global community continues to ignore these horrors while obsessively vilifying Israel, it confirms what many have feared all along: This was never about human rights. This is about selective outrage and hatred. We will not be complacent.
Tapping Into Populism, Earle-Sears Can Resonate with Va. Voters

Unchallenged by Critics Depraved Art, Culture Rage Onward

Are Trump Administration Officials Blocking Vaping Campaign Promise?
I urge these leaders at FDA and CBP to reconsider their approach to vaping regulation. The demise of a multi-billion dollar industry that millions of Americans depend on is avoidable.
