Congress Eyes Regulating Drug Ads, But It Won't Mean Lower Prices

By Sally Pipes, Author of The World's Medicine Chest

"Knowing what something costs before buying it is just common sense." That's how Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, justified a bill he introduced in January to require drug companies to include a medicine's list price in their advertisements. Unfortunately, his Drug-price Transparency for Consumers, or DTC, Act - co-sponsored by Sen. Dick Durbin, D-Ill. - would only make drug prices more confusing for consumers. And it would draw attention away from the middlemen in the drug supply chain who are responsible for escalating costs at the pharmacy. [more...]


Illegal Immigrants Have a Friend in AOC

By Michael Levine, America's Leading Media Expert

Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (AOC) continues to make headlines - not for championing American citizens, but for actively aiding those who have entered the country illegally. The latest has the leader of "The Squad" doubling down on her defiance of U.S. immigration laws by hosting a "Know Your Rights with ICE" webinar, advising illegal immigrants on how to avoid deportation efforts under the renewed enforcement policies of the Trump administration. And she didn't stop there. Ocasio-Cortez's government-funded website offers unauthorized residents step-by-step guidance on how to dodge Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). [more...]


Trump’s FBI Reforms Need to Include Ending Its Data Distortions on Crime

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

The FBI doesn’t just have a transparency problem; they’re actually distorting data to skew important crime statistics.

There is a lot of attention on the Trump administration removing dozens of Department of Justice (DOJ) and FBI officials involved in charging 1,500 Jan. 6 defendants, but one area of politicization in the FBI and DOJ that isn’t getting attention is crime data. The ability to manipulate and distort crime data allows those distorting the data to control the political debate. We have found many more missed cases and are keeping an updated list. As such, the CPRC numbers tell a much different story. [more...]


USAID’s Taliban Money Laundering Scheme

By Daniel Greenfield, Author of Domestic Enemies

Bags of hundred-dollar bills traded through a terrorist bank.

In 2022, the DA Afghanistan Bank showed off photos of $40 million in stacks of hundred-dollar bills sitting on the tarmac at Kabul International Airport. The Taliban-controlled central bank described this as one of three shipments of “humanitarian aid” amounting to over $100 million. DAB, Afghanistan’s central bank, was headed by Noor Ahmad Agha, a “specially designated terrorist” who had been named as the “financier of bomb-making,” including the IEDs which had killed over 1,000 American soldiers, and sending money to a sanctioned figure was illegal. Despite that, someone had sent a massive fortune in U.S. cash to the Taliban’s terror bank. [more...]


Throwing Gold Bars Off the Sinking Biden Administration

By Colonel (Ret.) John Mills, Author of War Against the Deep State

DOGE rides toward the sounds of the Deep State slush fund cannons.

EPA Secretary Lee Zeldin called it what it is - the Biden Regime EPA was intentionally throwing “gold bars” (our money) off the 'Titanic' in their last few days of frenzied hate and discontent. The $20 billion dollars was nothing but a slush fund to for the dark web of non-profits to be used to fight the Trump Administration. Yes, these funds can be “clawed back” and returned to the Treasury. The federal budget legal term is “de-obligate” and for any funds that were “expensed,” i.e. invoiced and/or actually spent, by the non-profits, they need to get ready for a notice of payment due.

Reflections on Washington, Lincoln, and Trump on Presidents Day

By Scott Powell, Author of Rediscovering America

What a difference four weeks makes (since Trump’s inauguration) regarding the state of the nation on Presidents Day. A year ago, the American people were reeling from their freedoms, rights, and opportunities being brazenly stripped away by the federal government and its administrative deep state. Most troubling a year ago was the reality of over 1,000 political prisoners in the United States. Presidents’ Day 2025 takes on particular significance because not only did President Trump free the J6 political prisoners as his first order of business, but he has done more than any prior president to forestall the outcomes tied to the specific warnings of Presidents’ Day heroes George Washington and Abraham Lincoln.

China "Owns" America’s Generic Drug Supply Chain, U.S. China Commission Says

By Kenneth Rapoza, Reporter/Columnist for Coalition for a Prosperous America

It’s the most well-known secret on Capitol Hill: China owns the American generic drug supply chain. Basic thyroid or blood pressure medications might finally be put into pill form in an Indian lab and sold under an Indian brand like Cipla. But the organic compounds, or key starting materials, mostly come from China, which is also a key supplier of active pharmaceutical ingredients (API). As a result, the U.S. generic drug market is a wholly owned subsidiary of Chinese and Indian drug makers. “We are losing badly on pharmaceuticals,” said Michael Kuiken, a commissioner for the U.S.-China Economic and Security Review Commission. The commission held a day-long hearing on Thursday, Feb. 6 titled "Made in China 2025: Who is Winning." [more...]


The Dems' Made-Up 'Constitutional Crisis'

By James Hirsen, NY Times Bestselling Author, International Business Attorney, News Analyst & Cultural Commentator

In the decades-old tradition of leftists and fringe radicals, a mind massage of the public psyche is once again in the works. This time, propaganda is being disseminated in the form of an endless repetition of a falsely scripted phrase, which was likely created via focus groups. Like the past not-so-catchy “existential threat to democracy” slogan that droned on and on in an effort to undermine President Trump’s reelection bid, Democrats and their media allies have an old new phrase with which to program people’s minds: the equally vapid “constitutional crisis.” However, the real crisis that our country is facing is a fiscal one. A little clarification of the words “deficit” and “debt” is in order, - two words that are routinely and unfortunately incorrectly used interchangeably. [more...]
