Allen West met Patty Morin, mother of murdered Maryland mom Rachel Morin, and asks why Governor Moore's first legislative priority was banning the very law enforcement cooperation that brought her daughter's killer to justice.
“Are we there yet?” may be funny coming from kids on a road trip, but it is a dangerous way to think about war and national security. Using a family travel story as the setup, this piece argues that America’s struggle with Iran cannot be measured in days or weeks, but in decades of aggression, missed opportunities, and the long game our enemies are already playing.
What happens when the state that gave America James Madison considers legislation that critics say undermines the very rights he helped enshrine? A proposed Virginia law would ban the future sale of certain semi-automatic firearms and magazines, igniting a fierce debate over the Second Amendment, constitutional limits, and the role of government in regulating arms. Supporters argue the measure promotes public safety. Opponents say it contradicts both the historical purpose of the amendment and Supreme Court rulings affirming an individual right to keep and bear arms. With the bill now sitting on the governor’s desk, the controversy highlights a broader national clash over constitutional interpretation, public safety, and the enduring meaning of the right to bear arms.
When $24 billion in foreign sovereign wealth fund money backs a deal to control a third of America's entertainment market, that's not just a business transaction. Allen West makes a compelling case that the proposed Warner Bros. Discovery/Paramount merger is a cultural inflection point we're sleepwalking through. Our stories shape our values, and whoever controls those stories wields real power.
What does “affordability” really mean? Using Abraham Lincoln’s famous warning that the same word can represent both liberty and tyranny, this commentary argues that today’s political push for “affordability” reflects competing visions of economic freedom, and a growing debate over whether government intervention actually makes life more affordable or simply expands control over it.
For 47 years, we've operated in a delusional reality when it comes to Iran. The number one state sponsor of Islamic terrorism has killed and maimed our troops, armed Russia with drones, funded proxy wars across the Middle East, and pursued nuclear weapons not for energy but for apocalyptic ambitions. There is no compromise with a regime that chants "Death to America" and means it. Removing Iran as a threat isn't optional. It's a strategic geopolitical imperative.
A campaign that started in California in 2006 has reached Richmond, and it's gunning for the Electoral College. Bills passed by Virginia's House and Senate would add the Commonwealth to the National Popular Vote Interstate Compact, a scheme that would force Virginia to ignore its own voters and hand its presidential electors to whoever wins a nationwide popularity contest. There's no official national vote total, it likely violates the Constitution's Compact Clause, and every single state that's signed on is blue. Here's why Gov. Spanberger should reject it.
When President Trump asked members of Congress during his State of the Union address to stand if they believed the government’s duty is to protect American citizens over illegal aliens, the silence from the left was striking. That moment raises a deeper constitutional question about the true purpose of government. From the Constitution’s Guarantee Clause to the natural rights philosophy of John Locke and the principles expressed in the Declaration of Independence, the American system is built on the idea that government exists to protect the life, liberty, and property of its citizens. When elected officials place ideological agendas above the law and refuse to support enforcement of immigration statutes, it raises serious concerns about the rule of law itself—and whether some lawmakers have forgotten the fundamental responsibility they were elected to uphold.
The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear Watson v. Republican National Committee, a case that could redefine what “Election Day” means nationwide. At stake is whether ballots must be received by Election Day or may arrive afterward — a decision with major implications for election law, voter confidence, and the uniformity of federal elections.
A federal judge just blocked Texas from enforcing key parts of its own DEI law in three school districts. When activist courts override the will of the people, it's time to channel our inner Brigadier General McAuliffe (Battle of the Bulge) and say "Nuts!"
