Being Wise on China Doesn't Include Propping Up Defense Stocks

As Stalwarts for Israel Feel Heat, Memories of Oct. 7 Fade
If Hamas rejects the deal, Trump told Netanyahu, "Bibi, you'd have our full backing to do what you would have to do." So if the war drags on and on, blame Hamas terrorists, not Netanyahu and Israel.

The fact that abortion is violence has nothing to do with one's religious affiliation. Abortion is not the only form of violence, but it attacks the very foundation of every other right we have.
Dershowitz: UN Walkout on Netanyahu Shows Its Uselessness
For me, watching these bigoted delegates representing hypocritical nations globally, walk out only on the world's only nation-state of the Jewish people, is the straw changing my view about whether the U.S. should continue its membership.
Kazakhstan's Constitutional Change Favors America's Interests

With Terrorist Designation, Trump Takes the Fight to Antifa
There is currently no formal designation for domestic terror groups akin to the State Department's published list of Foreign Terrorist Organizations. President Trump's designation will allow the FBI to conduct domestic terrorism probes with increased resources.
De Gaulle, Others Got It Wrong on France's Liberation
Americans must regularly commemorate, and insist that our former and current allies acknowledge, the historical fact that roughly 90% of France was freed in the summer of 1944 by the superhuman heroism and ultimate sacrifices of our soldiers, pilots, and sailors.

Progressive Idiocy Costs Us Our Spaces, Security, and Lives

Time for 'Too Late Jerome' to Admit He's Overwhelmed, Then Exit

Kids Online Safety Act a Trojan Horse for Online Censorship
Members of Congress may tell themselves that the same kind of horrifying censorship we see in the UK could never happen here. The easiest way to make sure it never does is if we sink the KOSA. Online censorship is happening. It could be coming to American shores.

Trump is signaling that the U.S. remain at the table, but only where the terms deliver results. Every UN dollar now comes with a scoreboard. The U.S. is keeping the pen.

There are so many real problems facing women the world over, yet the UN is bent on addressing abortion and the LGBTQ+ agenda, matters of interest only to Western elites. Thus have they made a sham of the conference.
