ou have to hand it to President Donald Trump.
Joe Biden, the person who occupied the Oval Office before Trump, seemed barely coherent most of the time. He was constantly ducking the media and needed note cards to deal with even the simplest questions. Even then, it would always be uncertain whether he could answer, even though the media was largely favorable to him.
In contrast, Trump and his team have to put up with a constantly hostile media, yet they're always answering questions and being transparent, even when they aren't treated fairly.

President Donald Trump claimed that a “wealthy” donor offered to pay the salaries of U.S. service members if the United States government ran out of money available to pay the troops during the ongoing government shutdown.
While taking questions from reporters during a meeting at the White House with Argentinian President Javier Milei, Trump was asked if the administration had “the money to pay the troops.” Trump noted that he told the donor that his administration wouldn’t “need it” and that they would “take care of our troops.”
“You have the money to pay the troops on October 15?” a reporter asked.

NEW YORK — Leaders of Young Republican groups throughout the country worried what would happen if their Telegram chat ever got leaked, but they kept typing anyway.
They referred to Black people as monkeys and “the watermelon people” and mused about putting their political opponents in gas chambers. They talked about raping their enemies and driving them to suicide and lauded Republicans who they believed support slavery.
William Hendrix, the Kansas Young Republicans’ vice chair, used the words “n--ga” and “n--guh,” variations of a racial slur, , more than a dozen times in the chat. Bobby Walker, the vice chair of the New York State Young Republicans at the time,

NEW YORK — Two more members of a Young Republican group chat strewn with racist epithets and hateful jokes stepped down from their jobs Tuesday after POLITICO published an exclusive report on the Telegram exchanges.
Peter Giunta’s time working with New York Assemblymember Mike Reilly “has ended,” the Republican lawmaker said. Giunta served as chair of the New York State Young Republicans when the chat took place. Joseph Maligno, who previously identified himself as the general counsel for that group, is no longer an employee of the New York State Unified Court System, a courts spokesperson confirmed.

The Curb Your Enthusiasm actress, 60, was a guest on Tuesday's episode of the ABC talk show and was grilled about her other half Robert F. Kennedy Jr's lack of a medical background.
Defending her RFK Jr's knowledge, Cheryl said: 'He has dedicated his career to suing big corporations because of toxins that have been affecting people's health… 'He was part of the team that sued Monsanto because of Roundup, a pesticide that was causing cancer. GMOs right?

Ever since President Donald Trump brokered the historic ceasefire between Israel and Hamas, the left has predictably tried to rewrite history. Instead of acknowledging Trump’s success, they’ve either praised the deal without giving him credit or tried desperately to hand the credit to someone else—namely, former President Joe Biden.
Biden’s former Secretary of State, Antony Blinken, previously claimed the Trump-brokered ceasefire “builds on a post-conflict framework developed under the Biden administration.” The spin is almost comical: (Snip) On Monday, Biden issued a statement on the release of hostages in Gaza, framing it as a crowning achievement of his administration.

President Trump paid tribute to Charlie Kirk with a Rose Garden celebration on what would have been his 32nd birthday — as his widow Erika revealed he likely would have run for president one day.
Trump, 79, called the assassinated conservative activist a “martyr” worthy to be honored with some of the most famous names in history.
“Charlie Kirk was a martyr for truth and for freedom,” the president said. “And from Socrates to Saint Peter, from Abraham Lincoln to Martin Luther King, those who change history the most — and he really did — have always risked their lives for causes they were put on Earth to defend.”

Rep. Elise Stefanik (R., N.Y.) and Sen. Tom Cotton (R., Ark.) are urging the Trump administration to investigate the Council on American-Islamic Relations’s links to Hamas, according to a letter obtained by the Washington Free Beacon.
In a letter sent Tuesday to Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent, the Republicans argue that CAIR’s "pattern of historic ties" to Hamas, combined with the rhetorical encouragement CAIR leaders have offered for Hamas, may constitute "material support for terrorism." They cite CAIR’s designation as an unindicted co-conspirator in a 2009 federal court case against the Holy Land Foundation, a Hamas front group, and pro-Hamas rhetoric from CAIR

After Hamas invaded Israel two years ago to behead babies, rape women, torture men, burn people alive, and take hostages, they gleefully promised to do so repeatedly.
Israel sought to prevent that. They went into Gaza to root out the barbarians from their underground tunnels. In the process, some people got killed.
Sometimes that was because Hamas put civilians in harm’s way. Sometimes they did so for the purpose of hiding behind them, as when they set up their military headquarters in civilian hospitals. Sometimes they did so for the very purpose of getting the civilians killed in order to increase the overall body count.

Is the West experiencing a religious revival? Some say yes—or at least, that it needs one. Young generations have become spiritually bankrupt, they say, consumed by technology and social media, desperate for something bigger than themselves.
But how can religion compel the secular? Political scientist Charles Murray knows the answer better than most—because it happened to him. For much of his life, he explains in his new book, Taking Religion Seriously, out October 14, he was one of the “well-educated and successful people for whom religion has been irrelevant.”
But that’s changed. And in the following exclusive excerpt, Murray explains the very beginnings of his tiptoe toward religiosity.

“Under my Standing Authorities as Commander-in-Chief, this morning, the Secretary of War, ordered a lethal kinetic strike on a vessel affiliated with a Designated Terrorist Organization (DTO) conducting narcotrafficking in the USSOUTHCOM area of responsibility — just off the Coast of Venezuela,” Trump wrote on Truth Social. “Intelligence confirmed the vessel was trafficking narcotics, was associated with illicit narcoterrorist networks, and was transiting along a known DTO route. The strike was conducted in International Waters, and six male narcoterrorists aboard the vessel were killed in the strike.

Hamas fighters have dramatically reasserted control in Gaza, defying Israeli demands for disarmament just a day after U.S. President Donald Trump was in the region signing the ceasefire agreement.
On Tuesday, the militant group solidified its return by carrying out public executions of men accused of collaborating with Israeli forces. A video circulated Monday, whose authenticity was confirmed by a Hamas source, showed seven men dragged into a crowd, forced to their knees, and shot from behind in Gaza City.
The move underscores the “daunting hurdles” facing efforts to move Trump’s ceasefire plan toward a longer-term resolution.

Barack Obama really should follow the lead of old-time presidents and, instead of seeking the limelight, opt for a rocking chair on his front porch. In that way, he could spare himself the embarrassment of saying really stupid things. During a podcast with Marc Maron, Obama made a comment about using the National Guard that was meant to attack Trump, but merely made Obama look ignorant and partisan.
Before even getting to the substance of what Obama said, what’s notable about the interview is how Obama looks. He’s wound up as tightly as an angry suburban leftist woman explaining to her psychiatrist why her husband was completely wrong

The Nobel Peace Prize is dead—and it died of cowardice.
They gave Barack Obama a Nobel Peace Prize for hope.
Donald Trump earned a ten for results—and got no prize.
That single fact reveals more about the moral and institutional decay of Western leadership than any lecture about democracy ever could.
It wasn’t just a snub. It was a confession—a quiet admission that the Nobel Peace Prize, once a lodestar of moral clarity, has become a mirror of elite insecurities, incapable of recognizing peace when it comes from someone they didn’t script, sanctify, or control.

If politics is downstream from culture, and it is, we have a lot to worry about.
This is frankly because American culture has long been rotting like a 10-day-old avocado in the sun.
A good example, appearing in my X notifications yesterday, is a video of a white girl sporting corn-woven hair and speaking “Ebonics” while giving a cop a hard time.
“Why is she talking like that?” asks the original poster of the 54-second clip (below).X users reacting to the video were unsparing, with no small number attributing her behavior to low I.Q.

I would say, "Pity the poor Democrats," but they have spent far too many years being awful to warrant any consideration for whatever feelings their cold, leftist hearts might have. At the moment, the Dems are in political exile in Washington, D.C. Not by much, but it's exile nonetheless. As we have discussed many times, they aren't making much of a case to the American people to be brought out of it. Who knows? Maybe their "raining f-bombs on the Republicans" strategy will pan out. I remain skeptical about that.
They're also struggling with the government shutdown.

Barbarism didn’t win.
For more than two years, Hamas clung to the people it had taken hostage and brutalized as leverage over Israel in the war that the terror group initiated on October 7, 2023 — men, women, and children, Israelis and foreign nationals, Jews and non-Jews alike.Through ephemeral deals and in daring raids, some were liberated. Too many, though, were killed or languished in Gaza’s dungeons during the war that followed. Throughout the conflict, the Israeli government maintained that the war would end when the hostages were released. Today, the hostages who were not murdered in Hamas’s captivity are home, and the war for their freedom is over.

Since the Affordable Care Act (ACA) became law, Americans have faced soaring health care insurance premiums, which have more than doubled since 2013.
Surging deductibles have compounded the issue, creating a double whammy to affordability. Government subsidies, often touted as relief, merely mask the skyrocketing prices rather than addressing the root causes, thereby obscuring consumers from the true cost of care.A lesser-known ACA option, Copper plans, feature high deductibles but significantly lower premiums, typically 20 to 30 percent less than Bronze plans and up to 60 percent less than Platinum plans.

Changes that occur in the atmosphere occur in three dimensions. That should come as no surprise, even with the wrap-up late last month of Climate Week NYC. Yet so much thinking on climate change happens on a two-dimensional level.
Certainly, academic and government studies delve into the dimensional complexity of the airy environment, but the study results seem to be delivered and interpreted in a simplistic way.
Take climate conclusions derived from the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report. The IPCC report is the bible of climate change collective wisdom, and its latest edition is the Sixth Assessment Report (AR6).

The Iranian regime’s imperial delusion is crumbling. After decades spent fueling proxy wars and exporting revolution, Tehran now finds itself more isolated and impotent than ever. The linchpin of its regional empire, Syria, has collapsed into disarray. Its prized proxies, Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Houthis, are battered, demoralized, or disarmed. And now, with Donald Trump’s bold Gaza peace initiative gaining traction, the Islamic Republic’s game is up.For years, Iran’s ayatollahs dreamed of a Shi’ite crescent stretching from Tehran to the Mediterranean, forged in blood and ideology.

While the world's attention was focused on the release of the Jewish hostages taken by Islamic Hamas monsters, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill into law that would make it easy for strangers to kidnap children from his state's schools—without parental permission, naturally. While one story gloried in hostages freed from totalitarian barbarians, another set of totalitarians loosed a plot to take more. Think that's overwrought? Hold my beer.
Newsom signed AB 495 into law on Sunday night and pretended that the law, proffered by a Democrat to hide kids illegally in the country from Immigration authorities, kept parental rights intact and preserved parents’ relationships with their own children.

Czech President Petr Fiala just issued a vague press release claiming that “organized groups acting against state interests” were targeting his national security advisor. The bizarre release comes just days after his party lost the Czech prime ministerial election to Andrej Babis and his Trump-aligned Czech nationalist coalition. This isn’t a new defense strategy from Fiala. It’s a tried and true one, plagiarized from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy.In July 2025, Zelenskyy signed legislation stripping Ukraine’s independent anti-corruption agencies of their autonomy, giving a loyalist prosecutor general power to close investigations, transfer cases, and access all files. His justification? The agencies were infiltrated by “Russian influence.”

If you're not a person who hates Israel and who has routinely shown sympathy for their terrorist enemies, Monday was a good day, with the surviving hostages being released as a result of the historic peace deal between Israel and Hamas, brokered by President Trump and members of his administration.But Monday was not a good day for CNN's longtime chief international anchor Christiane Amanpour, a British-Iranian "journalist" whose name has become synonymous with Israel- and America-bashing.
As RedState reported earlier, Amanpour was one of the sour-faced media figures who, while talking about the hostages being released, seemed to fret about Hamas supposedly losing their "leverage" in the deal.

Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson predicted Monday the federal government shutdown may become the longest in history, saying he “won’t negotiate” with Democrats until they hit pause on their health care demands and reopen.
Standing alone at the Capitol on the 13th day of the shutdown, the speaker said he was unaware of the details of the thousands of federal workers being fired by the Trump administration. It’s a highly unusual mass layoff widely seen as way to seize on the shutdown to reduce the scope of government. Vice President JD Vance has warned of “painful” cuts ahead, even as employee unions sue.

The Democratic Socialists of America — the organization backing New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani — denounced the “conditional” cease-fire deal between Israel and Hamas and called for continued resistance against the Jewish state in a statement released Monday.
The DSA declaration titled “Until Palestinian Liberation” came days after Israel and Hamas agreed to halt fighting and begin exchanging hostages and prisoners under a US- and Arab-brokered deal.
The far-left group said the truce “will not end Israel’s assault on the Palestinian people or the theft and occupation of Palestinian lands,” describing it as a “conditional cease-fire” that “does not wash the hands of the ruling class that …

President Donald Trump has performed nothing short of a miracle by halting the war in Gaza and securing the release of 20 precious souls who had been languishing in Hamas captivity since Oct. 7.
Trump’s efforts were greeted with jubilation and relief in Israel — and amazingly, in Gaza as well.
The cease-fire is the first step in a larger peace deal that could reshape the Middle East and end the Israeli-Palestinian conflict for good.
This alone would have been enough for us — Dayenu! as we Jews say on Passover.
But Trump’s achievement is all the more extraordinary: His diplomatic breakthrough won’t cost American taxpayers trillions of dollars.

President Donald Trump settled scores with his political foes during his passionate address to the Israeli parliament on Monday, taking a swipe at Hillary Clinton and blasting his predecessors Joe Biden and Barack Obama.
Trump, who appeared before the Knesset on Monday to tout the Israel-Hamas cease-fire deal that he brokered, said that the two Democratic presidents who preceded him in the White House harbored “hatred” for the Jewish state.
“All of the countries in the Middle East that could have what we’re doing now, it could have happened a long time ago, but it was strangled and set back almost irretrievably by the administrations of Barack Obama and then Joe Biden,”

Former President Barack Obama stated that President Donald Trump’s deployment of National Guard troops to quell crime in Democrat-run cities is “inherently corrupting,” arguing that he would have received a different reaction from conservative media if he had sent the military into Texas during his tenure. Obama spoke with left-wing comedian Mark Maron for the final episode of his long-running podcast, published Monday, in which he shared several of his grievances about how Trump has been leading the country.

For two days, the Venezuelan government didn't acknowledge that opposition leader María Corina Machado won the Nobel Peace Price, though it's understandable. Illegitimate narco-terrorist president Nicolás Maduro is losing his stronghold on the nation, and Machado is largely the reason for that. On Friday, the whole world learned who she is and what she's fighting for, which amplified the country's desire for freedom and democracy, and especially its desire to remove the tyrant who holds it all hostage. Best Maduro can do is pretend her team is blowing up the not-in-service U.S. embassy in Caracas and that his security forces stopped them —

Venezuelan dictator Nicolas Maduro is in a bind as the US ups the pressure.
He advanced the Christmas season to October, while his security forces probed his top officials to root out traitors interested in the $50 million bounty for his arrest.
Mobilized all Bolivarian militias and enacted drills; talked hard, defiantly, and sought foreign allies.
Tried to negotiate with Richard Grennell until US President Donald J. Trump shut down all diplomacy. Now, he seems a bit desperate, as he makes an appeal to the native south American tribes to unite.
