Socialists' Demands to Abolish Police and Prisons Will Mean More Dead Americans

By John Lott, Foremost Expert on Guns & Crime

...and while Democrats claim that 'black lives matter,' their policies of defunding the police and getting rid of prison means more black people will be victims of violent crime.

What these Democrats ignore is that criminals overwhelmingly prey on people like themselves. About 90% of black homicide victims are killed by other black people, and 70% of black violent crime victims are victimized by a black offender. Abdul El-Sayed, the projected Democratic nominee for U.S. Senate in Michigan, has argued that systemic racism shapes the criminal justice system and has advocated defunding the police and reducing imprisonment. In tweets and interviews in 2020 and 2021, he made comments such as, "I believe that we do need to defund the police," and "The police have become standing armies we deploy against our own people." [more...]

Feminism Cannot be Reformed

By Professor Janice Fiamengo, Author of The Goddess That Failed: Feminism's Unending War against Men, Families, and Civilization Itself

It must be destroyed, root and branch.

Feminism poses a threat to everything good in western culture, perhaps especially to women's capacity to love, reason, and exercise self-restraint. The Goddess That Failed shows why feminism has nothing to do with gender equality. It is a radical ideology that seeks sexual license, unearned economic privileges, and freedom from adult accountability for women. It enforces economic servitude, shame, and legal disempowerment for men. It impugns male goodness while excusing female wrongdoing; even worse, it encourages women to be their worst selves while telling men that they can never be good enough. Feminism thus destroys the very thing it claims to seek - true reciprocity between the sexes. [more...]

 

'Vocabulary of Equity' Doesn't Teach Children to Read

By Michael Levine, Public Relations Expert, Author of Authentic PR

California, blessed with extraordinary natural beauty, staggering wealth, and some of the best-known universities on earth, has spent much of the past decade behaving like a civilization determined to squander its inheritance. It is a tragedy not because decline is inevitable, but because it is entirely avoidable. Consider one startling statistic. According to recent education results, a Black fourth-grade student in Mississippi is approximately two and a half times more likely to be proficient in both reading and mathematics than a Black fourth-grade student in the Golden State. Pause and absorb that. [more...]

Import Values Fell by Around $6 Billion in June, But Month Was Second Highest Goods Import Surge of 2026

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

Despite foreign currency gains against the dollar in top trading partners like Mexico, Vietnam and China, import values for goods came in at $309.01 billion. That is the second highest import value of the year following May's $316.86 billion surge, says the Bureau of Economic Analysis. All told, the goods gap for June was $102.10 billion, down from $105.96 billion in May. Import values are much higher than the $82 billion to $86 billion range recorded for much of the year, suggesting both price inflation of key imported commodities and possible spikes in volume of manufactured goods.

Mamdani's Wife to Travel to Al Qaeda State with NYPD After September 11

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center

Something has gone very wrong in New York City.

Mayor Zohran Mamdani’s wife Rama Duwaji is heading to Syria and Lebanon next month – and she’s bringing along cops assigned to the First Couple’s taxpayer-funded NYPD detail, The Post has learned. Duwaji will be jetting to the Middle East for a trip beginning Sept. 20 to the countries on the State Department’s “Do Not Travel” list for Americans because of dangerous conditions, a source said. Duwaji, a 29-year-old Syrian-American artist, has ties to the region and refers to herself as a “Syrian Illustrator” on her website. Her parents are Syrian Muslims originally from Damascus. [more...]

How One Homeless Woman Restored Her Life

By Michele Steeb, Homelessness Expert

Watch Julianna's story - in 2017, Julianna was addicted to meth, trapped in domestic violence, and on the verge of permanently losing custody of her two young sons. Most people had written her off. A recovery and restoration program didn't. Demand that your elected officials - and every homelessness advocacy organization you support - stop settling for housing as the finish line. Restored lives must become the standard by which we measure success and hold our leaders accountable. [more...]

WNBA Rules Mandate that Enes Freedom and Royce White Be Let In

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

Enes Kanter Freedom and Royce White just threw their hats into the 2027 WNBA Draft. Under the basketball league's own eligibility language, the two former NBA first-round picks are currently identifying as women. Freedom and White's declaration of gender has the WNBA dribbling across the cultural court to schedule an emergency task-force meeting of team presidents and general managers in order to discuss "transgender athlete participation." In a world of logic, reason, and ethics, the league has an obligation to apply its own set of rules consistently. [more...]

United in Hate - The Left's Romance with Tyranny, Terror, and Hamas

By Jamie Glazov, Editor of Frontpage Magazine at the David Horowitz Freedom Center

Jamie Glazov holds a PhD in History with a specialty in Russian, U.S., and Canadian foreign policy. He is the author of the critically acclaimed and bestselling books, Jihadist Psychopath and Barack Obama’s True Legacy, and the host of the web TV show The Glazov Gang. His new book, United in Hate: The Left’s Romance with Tyranny, Terror, and Hamas, tackles how and why the Left aids and abets those who seek to destroy America.

It confronts two crucial questions: [1] Why does the Left romanticize death cults and authoritarianism? [2] Why does it stand for causes that fundamentally oppose human rights and democracy? United in Hate offers a powerful answer: These groups harbor a shared contempt for Western civilization and a deep-seated urge to dismantle it from within. [more...]

Fauci's Fifth - A 40-Year Reputation Collapses in One Afternoon, Says America's Leading Media Expert

By Michael Levine, Public Relations Expert, Author of Authentic PR

With today's Fauci contempt hearings, we should revisit the reason behind the hearings in the first place. Michael Levine, America's leading media expert called Dr. Anthony Fauci's appearance before Congress "a shocking and embarrassing disaster" that inflicted irreparable damage on a public career spanning more than four decades. "Dr. Fauci did not merely have a difficult afternoon," Levine said. "He presided over the televised demolition of his own credibility." Fauci's repeated invocation of the Fifth Amendment transformed what could have been an opportunity for clarification into a spectacle of evasion, Levine argued. His refusal to answer lawmakers' questions created a devastating public impression - regardless of the legal strategy behind it. [more...]

The Shadows of Communism, Cultural Marxism, and Socialism That Lie Waiting Beyond Trump

By Judd Dunning, Talk Show Host, Newsmax Columnist

We are seeing a new Iron Curtain waiting to fall after President Trump's term if conservatives lose control of this country. We must study history to know the truth. There is no healthy face of communism, which is evil and repressive; and its sister ideology, socialism, carries the same false promise whenever it seeks to replace individual liberty, private ownership and the sovereignty of the citizen with centralized government control. This is not fearmongering. The socialistic, communistic, non-America-first and anti-sovereignty politics we have seen threaten the central principle of conservative populism: that the citizen is the true ruler and owner of the country. [more...]

Lock Up the Enablers - Parents Must Face the Consequences, Too

By Michael Levine, Public Relations Expert, Author of Authentic PR

I thoroughly agree with the 15-year prison sentence handed down to Colin Gray, the father of the Georgia teenager who carried out the deadly 2024 Apalachee High School shooting. This decision was long overdue and a powerful reminder that parental responsibility does not end at the front door. Gray was convicted after giving his son the assault rifle used in the massacre despite multiple warning signs, including the boy's fascination with mass shootings, his disturbing behavior, and prior contact with law enforcement regarding alleged threats. For far too long, America has treated some parents of violent juvenile offenders as innocent bystanders. When overwhelming warning signs are ignored, and a parent provides the very weapon used to commit mass murder, accountability should not stop with the shooter. [more...]

House Foreign Affairs Committee Ropes in Japan, South Korea as Solution to U.S. Shipbuilding Woes

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

The U.S. is the world's No. 1 exporter of liquefied natural gas. It has two new LNG tankers under construction, or under firm order, in the Philadelphia Shipyard. The builder is Hanwha Ocean, a South Korean shipbuilder. No U.S. company has built an LNG tanker since 1980 – that's the Virginia-based General Dynamics built LNG tanker named "Abuja." For this reason, the House Foreign Affairs Committee seems committed to counting on Japan and South Korea to help the U.S. rebuild a shipping industry long lost to Asia a generation ago. [more...]

America's Murder Problem is Smaller Than it Looks

By John Lott, Foremost Expert on Guns & Crime

Does the United States have a higher murder rate than its peer countries? Yes, but new research shows that statistic obscures how murders in the U.S. are extremely concentrated in very tiny areas. Nevertheless, the United States has recently made remarkable progress. Since national recordkeeping began in 1900, the country has never recorded a murder rate this low. The previous record low was approximately 4.5 murders per 100,000 people, and the rate stood at about 5.0 per 100,000 in 2024. [more...]

Bipolar Socialist Immigrant Explains She'll Be Great Governor Because She's a Failed Chef

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center

DSA Wisconsin gubernatorial candidate Francesca Hong, who had once been institutionalized, is a bipolar socialist immigrant (she makes Graham Platner seem nice and well adjusted) had once tweeted that Thanksgiving should be canceled because it was racist. Hong was sued for $30,000 by Capital One for not making payments on her credit card which she blamed on her failed chef business... so I'm not sure that the natural next step is being governor of Wisconsin. [more...]

Don't Forget How Florida Defeated Fauci-ism and Vindicated Federalism

By Josh Hammer, Syndicated Columnist, Talk Show Host

Thankfully, not every American was equally subjected to Anthony Fauci's (the public health bureaucrat who became the face of America's botched COVID-19 response) overweening, politically expedient and often-changing dictates. We have our Founders to thank for that: Federalism mitigated the burdens of Fauci-ism for the many Americans fortunate enough to live in states whose political leadership defied prevailing COVID-era biomedical despotism. I would know: I moved to Florida in 2021 in no small part due to the way Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-Fla.) handled COVID-19. DeSantis, alongside Republican leaders in the Florida Legislature, acted in heroic fashion during COVID. [more...]

Cracker Barrel Learns the Cost of Abandoning Its Soul

By Michael Levine, Author of Authentic PR

The leadership change at Cracker Barrel following the failed attempt to modernize one of America's most recognizable restaurant brands offers a powerful lesson for every company chasing cultural trends at the expense of customer trust. Cracker Barrel announced that CEO Julie Felss Masino will step down after less than three years, following widespread customer backlash over efforts to remake the chain's traditional identity. The episode demonstrates that authenticity is one of the most valuable assets any organization possesses. When customers fall in love with a brand, they are entering into an emotional contract. Break that contract, and don't be surprised when they break up with you. [more...]

In Senate Finance Hearing with USTR Amb. Jamieson Greer, Democratic Leadership Launches Anti-Tariff Bill

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

Meanwhile, Others Call for Tariffs on Lamb Meat, Sugar and Steel-Making Ores

Amb. Jamieson Greer faced the unenviable task of explaining the Trump administration's tariff policies in a hearing before the Senate Finance Committee on July 22. Influential Democrats opposed tariffs and continued to frame them as taxes on consumers. Meanwhile, the Committee's Ranking Member, Sen. Ron Wyden (D-OR), rejected the new Section 301 forced labor tariffs, launched on Friday to replace the expiring Section 122 tariffs, which replaced the IEEPA tariffs rejected by the Supreme Court. In response to existing tariff policies, Wyden announced the Congressional Trade Powers Reform Act, a bill that would give Congress veto powers over Executive Branch trade policies. [more...]

9/11 Families Accused of 'Islamophobia' for Asking Mamdani to Stay Away from Ground Zero

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center

"As a 9/11 widow it is a slap in the face to every family member every person that has lost someone and every survivor of Ground Zero."

Shockingly, families of the victims of the Muslim terrorist attacks of September 11 are being accused of 'Islamophobia' for asking Zohran Mamdani, who had previously defended and excused Islamic terrorists, and whose chief counsel is a terror lawyer, to stay away from the September 11 commemoration ceremonies. And yet Zohran has decided to drive the nail in deeper: "I will proudly honor the families, the survivors, the first responders forever impacted by that horrific terror attack by standing alongside them at this year's 9/11 commemoration." [more...]

Sacramento's Drinking Water Supply is Repeatedly Buried Under Trash from Homeless Encampments

By Michele Steeb, Homelessness Expert

Taxpayers were forced to fund endless cleanups while Sacramento County's Housing First approach makes treatment voluntary, recovery programs nearly nonexistent - a permanent cycle of human suffering, squandered taxpayer dollars, and mounting environmental degradation. Sacramento needs leaders with the foresight and courage to prioritize recovery and rehabilitation. Treatment capacity must be expanded, and the civil commitment process must be enforced for individuals who are too sick to recognize their need for care. [more...]

DSA Assault on Prisons is Rooted in Third World-ist Lust for Barbarism

By Josh Hammer, Syndicated Columnist, Talk Show Host

Welcome to the Left's love of criminals.

Mamdani has had a complicated relationship with the issue of public safety. The official DSA platform stops short of calling for full "abolition" of prisons or policing, instead calling to "demilitarize police departments" and "end mass incarceration." But Hizzoner Zo condemned the "carceral state" when he ran for state assembly in 2020. He was pressed during an appearance on ABC News on whether he supports the existence of prisons. "There are prisons," he simply responded. That's not exactly reassuring. Just this week, Zo appeared on purported comic Jon Stewart's podcast and doubled down on prevarication. Stewart asked Hizzoner if he is "comfortable" with calls to abolish prisons. "I'm comfortable with disagreement," he replied. [more...]

The Second Amendment Opinion That Scrambled the Partisan Script

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

Friday's decision by the U.S. Court of Appeals' Third Circuit striking down New Jersey's ban on so-called assault weapons and magazines holding more than 10 rounds marks the first time a federal appeals court has invalidated such bans. New Jersey had one of the nation's strictest and most prominent assault weapon bans. It is also the longest running continuously enforced ban in the United States. With the Supreme Court expected to hear arguments in December on assault weapon bans from Chicago and Connecticut, many believe the ruling will preview the court’s approach to those cases. [more...]

Elon Musk's Own Odyssey Film Possibility

Entering into the whole cinematic discussion is none other than the man who transformed social media itself, Elon Musk. The tech titan has publicly criticized aspects of Christopher Nolan's version of The Odyssey as having departed from the source material's cultural and historical context. Musk recently suggested in posts on X that he would either fund an alternative Odyssey movie that has a more historically accurate take, or he would make a film of his own with his AI, Grok. He also stated that he is willing to fund filmmaker-director-actor Mel Gibson with $100 million to create an authentic adaptation. [more...]

Iran's Allies are in America

By Todd Sheets, Investment Banker, Economist, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

This past week, we saw this bipartisan myopia at work when over 100 House Democrats voted against renewed support for Israel while the isolationist VP J.D. Vance went on a national podcast to blame Israel for his own mistakes with respect to the failed MOU. Regrettably, Iran's best allies in the current war are located right here in America, which is why it was willing to forgo billions in needed funds to prevent the ceasefire from benefitting Trump in the mid-terms. But, one way or another, we are eventually going to have to deal with the hostile aggressions of a regime located in one of the most geopolitically important regions of the world. Ideally, our own allies around the world would also wake up to this reality; but for now, it is largely up to President Trump to determine whether our corpulent diva finally emerges from her dressing room to bemoan the tragedy of an Iranian triumph ...or to sing the glory of a better future for the Middle East, the United States, and the free world.

The Documented Case for Restoring Trust in American Elections

By Judd Dunning, Talk Show Host, Bestselling Author

In his July 16 address to the nation, President Trump returned to a subject that has defined much of his political life and divided the country for nearly a decade: the integrity of American elections. During his address to the nation, Trump revisited allegations surrounding prior elections, warned of vulnerabilities in the system and urged Congress to enact stronger proof-of-citizenship and voter-identification requirements. The deeper argument beneath Trump's speech is difficult to dismiss: constitutional government cannot long survive if a substantial portion of the citizenry ceases to believe that political power is awarded through lawful, transparent and verifiable elections.

CAIR to Hold D.C. Convention After 9/11 Anniversary

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center

Convention to feature Muslim congressional candidate who aided terror sheikh linked to World Trade Center bombing.

The Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR), an unindicted co-conspirator in Islamic terrorist financing, has announced that it will be holding 'CAIRCon,' its latest convention in Washington, D.C. on September 12th and 13th. D.C. was of course one of the targets of the Islamic terrorist attacks of September 11. Keynote speakers will include newly selected Islamic congressional candidates Hisham 'Adam' Hamawy, a translator for the Blind Sheikh who was linked to the World Trade Center bombing, and Dariazila Avila Chevalier, who bragged about wiping her hands on the American flag and attended an event celebrating the Hamas atrocities of Oct 7. CAIR also celebrated the attacks. [more...]

Why We Need the SAVE America Act

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

Democrats argue that requiring voter photo IDs - even when the ID itself is given away free - creates practical barriers that prevent eligible voters from casting ballots. "We're all set for the SAVE America Act," Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) reportedly told President Trump immediately before his sudden death. With the House passing the SAVE Act as part of the reconciliation bill and President Trump urging its passage in his last Thursday night address to the nation, Republicans have launched a full-court press to get the legislation enacted. Democrats claim black voters would face the greatest harm. Yet every country in Africa requires government-issued identification to vote. Fifty-one of the 54 countries in Africa demand people actively submit proof of citizenship to register to vote. They also say IDs would disenfranchise Hispanic voters; yet Mexico, all 12 South American countries, and Spain mandate government-issued photo IDs to vote. All these countries verify the citizenship of those registered to vote. [more...]

As AG, Todd Blanche Will Finally Seek Justice for Dems' Dirty Lawfare

By Josh Hammer, Syndicated Columnist, Talk Show Host

It's easy to forget, but from 2022 through 2024, Democrats engaged in some of the most reckless, republic-destabilizing actions since their partisan forebears fired on Fort Sumter in 1861. In colluding to prosecute then-former (and future) President Donald Trump on sham legal grounds across four different jurisdictions and three separate prosecutors, Democrat-Lawfare Complex thugs acted in a manner more befitting tribal warlords of a third-world hellhole than elected officials in the greatest country on earth. They crossed a line that never should have been crossed. Many have conveniently forgotten or moved on, but we are still learning more about the Democrats' depths of lawfare depravity." [more...]

The Rise or Fall of the West

By Mark Tapson, Shillman Fellow at the David Horowitz Freedom Center

Reclaim national sovereignty or die.

For more than half a century, the Left's toxic one-world communist vision has dictated the trajectory of Western statecraft, establishing the supremacy of transnational governance over the traditional democratic republic. Globalist elites, radical Left-wing NGOs, and a political class consumed by civilizational self-loathing have pushed toward the shining horizon of a post-nationalist utopia, holding up this ideal as a triumph of cosmopolitan enlightenment. The promise was that by dissolving borders, dismantling shared cultural inheritances, and subordinating national sovereignty to unelected legalistic bodies, the West would enter a post-historical paradise. [more...]
