The unrest surrounding federal immigration enforcement in Minneapolis did not arise by accident. It is the product of a combustible mix: deliberate obstruction by Democratic officials, wall-to-wall legacy media coverage and two tragic incidents that were mishandled by senior figures inside the Trump administration. Together, these forces have ...Read more

Sorting through what exactly Alex Pretti did or did not do to provoke his death in Minneapolis at the hands of ICE agents is not enough to understand this tragedy.

Pretti had a permit for his concealed weapon. But does the Second Amendment cover carrying it at an incendiary anti-ICE demonstration with motivation to do something?

All this ...Read more

Theft and cunning sabotage are ancient weapons. Alone or in tandem, they damage an adversary. The Trojan horse was a cunning stratagem to circumvent Troy's massive walls, but once circumvented, Troy collapsed.

In the 21st century, cunning saboteurs add mob violence, street terror and digital propaganda to theft -- massive, billion-dollar ...Read more

The Big Apple is about to take on a new name -- Tent City, or Filth City. Or perhaps Lepto City, after leptospirosis, a bacterial infection increasingly found in homeless encampments.

New York's new mayor, Zohran Mamdani, is barring the New York Police Department from closing down encampments.

Since Mamdani previewed his policy in December, ...Read more

Home prices keep rising. One reason is that today's houses are bigger. Buyers now want more rooms, washers and dryers and air-conditioning. But even if you adjust for the improvements, houses cost more today. Why? Politicians blame big companies like Blackstone, Invitation Homes and JPMorgan because they've been buying thousands of homes.

"It's...Read more

When the Seattle Seahawks and the New England Patriots take the field in this year's Super Bowl, there is one thing you will not see. Neither team will put a biological female on the field to play in the game.

Is this because the NFL is sexist? No.

In fact, there is no formal NFL rule that prohibits biological females from playing in the ...Read more

The leftist media cabal constantly imagine themselves as the grand embodiment of Democracy and Freedom of Speech, even as they seek to put Republicans in jail and hope to censor them out of speaking on social media. They don't live up to their First Amendment boasting.

For example, there's "CNN International" host Christiane Amanpour, whose ...Read more

LIGONIER, Pennsylvania -- All that remained of Ruthie's Diner on Jan. 21 was charred, ice-encased rubble -- the aftermath of firefighters' desperate efforts to extinguish the blaze that ultimately consumed the modest eatery, which for more than 70 years had served locals and the travelers, anglers and hunters heading east along the Lincoln ...Read more

A political prisoner who has been locked behind bars for nearly eight years, Caleb Bailey has been serving a term of 16 years and eight months. Why is he in prison? Judge for yourself.

In April 2016, Caleb and his father were elected as Trump delegates to the Republican National Committee from Maryland. Maryland is, of course, one of America's ...Read more

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) likes to argue that the "whole point" of protesting is to make people "uncomfortable."

Debate. Dissent. Running highly misleading political ads on TV. These are all part of our great tradition of political discourse. In this as in so much else, the Democratic darling is incorrect. Taking to the streets to ...Read more

On Tuesday, the full, 17-judge U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit heard consolidated oral arguments in a crucial case that is all but guaranteed to make it to the U.S. Supreme Court. The predictable controversy surrounding the litigation, which involves similar but distinct mandatory Ten Commandments display laws arising out of Texas ...Read more

The last two weeks have been, like the preceding weeks, nuts. The president insisted the United States must own Greenland and he would not rule out military force, if necessary, to take the island. He imposed tariffs on the NATO allies who oppose his territorial lust. Then he walked it all back for the framework of a deal.

The reality is, ...Read more

The leftists on social media have hilariously caricatured CBS News under new Editor-in-Chief Bari Weiss as "CBS Newsmax," like it's lurched dramatically to the right. But if you're monitoring CBS in real life, there's plenty of evidence that "classic CBS" is still operating. In recent days, CBS has proven to be worse than ABC and NBC in its tilt...Read more

Think about it. Heads of government do not normally reveal the texts of private communications from other heads of state. Yet that is what Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Store of Norway did Sunday, on the first weekend of the World Economic Forum in Davos, where the international press would have no difficulty finding appalled foreign ...Read more
