Colorado was cruising for a judicial bruising when it struggled to defend its ban on so-called conversion therapy for minors at the Supreme Court last fall, with several justices skeptical of its last-ditch argument that plaintiff and licensed counselor Kaley Chiles didn't actually violate the law with her talk therapy for kids struggling with gender identity and sexual orientation. That bruising came down Tuesday in the form of an 8-1 ruling against the law, with only Justice Ketanji Brown Jackson dissenting, in a worrying sign for similar bans in half the states but also for red states that might try to ban so-called gender affirming counseling.

Now, more than 80 years after the end of the Nazi dictatorship, anyone can click through millions of index cards in the US National Archives without registering, and search for the names of their own grandparents and great-grandparents. The data contains information on 6.6 million Germans who were members of the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSDAP) until 1945, stored on more than 5,000 digitized microfilm reels. But the records are incomplete: According to the German Historical Museum, in 1945 "one in five adult Germans was one of a total of 8.5 million party members" and thus, at least on paper, supported the fascist regime.

As discussed earlier today, Democrats may be facing problems in a few years thanks to all of the people choosing to leave blue states and move to red states instead. Over time, that reduces the number of electoral votes in those blue states as well as the number of people representing the state in the House. There can be many reasons people decide to leave blue states but one of the ones often pointed to is taxation and another is affordability. It's not a coincidence that some of our largest blue cities also have some of the highest home and rental prices. So does fleeing these cities really benefit

The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is willing to join the US-Iran war and is preparing to help the United States and other allies reopen the Strait of Hormuz by force, according to a new report that cited Arab officials. This comes as Iran continues its attacks on the UAE and other Gulf states in response to US-Israeli attacks on its territory. Such a move would make the UAE the first Persian Gulf country to join the conflict directly. This also comes after US President Donald Trump lashed out at allies on Tuesday for not doing more to support the US war effort against Iran,

At least 1,411 people have been killed by illegal migrants, nearly all of whom have been killed during the last 25 years, according to a list assembled by a grassroots group that opposes mass migration. “The reason we put the list out is that a lot of people don’t realize how large the scale actually is — they usually just hear a blurb about the latest [victim],” Bill Gheen, founder of the Americans for Legal Immigration PAC (ALIPAC) grassroots group, told Breitbart News. The list of 1,411 deaths “is a very conservative number because there are a lot of statistics that police officers

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) claims President Donald Trump’s administration is committing “assaults against immigrants” less than 10 days after 18-year-old Sheridan Gorman was murdered in the Windy City, allegedly at the hands of an illegal alien released into the United States by the Biden administration. During a “No Kings” protest in Chicago, Illinois, over the weekend, Johnson told MS NOW in an interview that Americans must fight the Trump administration on immigration. “We have to end the assaults against immigrants,” Johnson said, among other things.

The recent massive U.S. strike near Iran’s central city of Isfahan likely sought to render Tehran’s remaining highly enriched uranium stockpile inaccessible by burying it deep underground — a strategy that would negate the need for a prolonged and risky U.S. ground operation to extract the material, according to an Israeli military analyst writing Tuesday. Writing in Ynet on Tuesday, Israeli military analyst Ron Ben-Yishai — a veteran Yediot Ahronot correspondent and Israel Prize recipient — assessed that the strike reflects a deliberate U.S. effort to neutralize Iran’s enriched uranium stockpile by entombing it beneath rock, soil, and collapsed tunnel infrastructure rather than attempting to remove it by force.

ABC News was out of control with their dangerous conspiracy theories Tuesday morning. In an attempt to gaslight their viewers into thinking President Trump was preparing to do something horrific against America, they pretended that the White House didn’t already have a bunker underneath it. They blatantly claimed the one reportedly being built under the new ballroom was being designed for him to hold onto power and control the country after he would refuse to leave office.

In an 8-1 opinion Tuesday, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that a Colorado law violates the First Amendment by discriminating against the free speech rights of a Christian therapist who helps minors embrace their biological reality and heterosexual inclinations. In Chiles v. Salazar, Kaley Chiles, a licensed Christian therapist, challenges a 2019 Colorado law banning conversion therapy helping clients under 18 who want to rid themselves of unwanted gender ideologies that reject biology. Chiles does not provide any type of physically-altering service. Instead, she

The CEO of the world’s largest bank, JPMorgan Chase head Jamie Dimon, appeared on Fox & Friends Tuesday and said he knows exactly why residents are fleeing blue states: progressive policies stink, they're destructive, and they don’t work. Any RedState reader already knows this, but apparently it’s news to the Left. Why, leftists seemingly ask, don’t our subjects like the rising crime, homelessness, high taxes, and insane housing costs we bring them? They should know what’s good for them. Dimon said, yeah, not so much: Jamie Dimon sounded off on high taxes and poor quality of life being major factors in the exodus of people and businesses from blue states.

My colleague Ward Clark overviewed President Donald Trump's Tuesday EO signing to mitigate mail-in voting fraud. According to a fact sheet, the Secretary of Homeland Security, with the Social Security Administration's help, will create a list of verified U.S. citizens who are eligible to vote in each state. The executive order will create enhanced control and tracking for mail-in ballots by the U.S. Postal Service (USPS). Ballots will now have specific secure envelopes, with unique barcodes for tracking. As the president took questions, much of this EO was glossed over. After this morning's Pentagon briefing by Secretary of War Pete Hegseth, most of the questions

JPMorgan Chase CEO Jamie Dimon is calling for a decisive end to the conflict with Iran, saying the U.S. must "finish this thing" to protect the global economy and remove the threat to the region. Dimon appeared on "Fox & Friends" Tuesday, saying American strength depends on decisive action in the Middle East and embracing the artificial intelligence revolution. "It’s much more important that this be successfully completed than what the market does," Dimon said. Threats to Middle East oil flows have added uncertainty to markets, as the United States, Israel and Iran continue to exchange strikes. On Tuesday, Iran struck an oil tanker.
