Democrats' Favorite Talking Point About Children and Gun Deaths is a Lie

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

Gun control advocates often claim that guns are the leading cause of death among children - but that is false.

Earlier this year, Virginia’s new governor-elect, Democrat Abigail Spanberger, demanded new gun control laws, calling guns "the number one killer of kids in our country." Other Democrats such as North Carolina’s Democrat Gov. Josh Stein also mentioned it. In June, the Ad Council launched a $10 million campaign touting the "alarming statistic - gun injuries at the number one killer of children and teens in this country." And, of course, there were parting shots from Biden's Council of Economic Advisers, literally days before they left office earlier this year, pushing the claim.

Guns aren't the leading cause of death among children, even when adolescents are included. Eliminating guns won't save lives - bans consistently drive murder rates higher and leave overall suicide numbers unchanged. But Democrats want to ban guns, repeating the false claim that firearms are the number one killer of "children" to justify their agenda. [more...]

Bill Gates Ends the Climate Change Scam

By Judd Dunning, Talk Show Host, Bestselling Author

The global warming priesthood has finally met its Galileo moment. After decades of doomsday sermons, manipulated models, and taxpayer tithing to the Green Church, the mask is off: the climate crusade was never about saving the planet - it was about controlling the people. I called it "The Big Green Elephant" - the movement that began as conservation and mutated into coercion. Real environmentalism honors stewardship; climate activism demands submission. What started with Rachel Carson's reverence for nature metastasized into Al Gore's carbon-credit capitalism - a theology of guilt that turns prosperity into sin and government into savior. The hard data always betrayed the narrative. [more...]

The Re-Emergence of American Culture

By Michael Finch, Author of A TIME TO STAND: The Dire Hour to Defend American Beauty

What we have lost - and our need for recovery

The Left has been at war with American culture and our shared history for decades. The 1619 Project, the demonization of the American Founding and the portrayal of America as a systemically racist country and people is part of that war. We have seen this with the attacks on President Trump on his Executive Order to “Make Federal Buildings Beautiful” or his attempts to celebrate American history to be an authoritarian impulse and his love for “fascist” architecture. Further, just look at the latest hysteria over Trump's comments about the Smithsonian Institution: "We are not going to allow this to happen, and I have instructed my attorneys to go through the museums and start the exact same process that has been done with colleges and universities where tremendous progress has been made." We can be very thankful that we have a president who stands so strong in the defense of American values and ideals, and of our incredible history and culture.  [more...]

Al Qaeda Finally Makes it to the White House

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the David Horowitz Freedom Center

We're partnering with moderate Al Qaeda against extremist Al Qaeda so that Al Qaeda doesn't win.

The Al Qaeda leader who took over Syria, Ahmed Al-Sharaa a/k/a Mohammed Al-Jolani, a/k/a "Mr. President," paid a visit to the White House just in time for the anniversary of the Battle of Fallujah. He played meet-and-greet with various political notables and, after a pressure campaign by the Muslim Brotherhood, dismantled the sanctions on Syria. And, the best news of all, the Al Qaeda government will join the coalition against his former buddies in ISIS. [more...]

The Threat Posed by the Democratic Socialists of America

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

For decades, many of us were warning that socialism (a/k/a communism lite) was slowly creeping onto the American stage, largely due to an organization called the Democratic Socialists of America (DSA). Now, following Zohran Mamdani's win in New York City's November 4, 2025 mayoral election, things have become crystal clear. Overt socialism has gotten a major foothold in the largest and most iconic city in America. Time to take a more in-depth look at DSA. [more...]

Trump Too Focused on Foreign Policy

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

Rich Baris, dubbed "The People's Pundit" wrote that "the general consensus is that the Trump Administration is too focused on foreign policy and not enough on domestic issues that got him elected. Pop the bubble or it'll be too late." Baris released a poll showing Trump voters prefer America First more than traditional Republicans. Those guys are OG globalists. We all know it. A Pew Research Center poll said half of those surveyed favored Trump paying less attention to problems overseas. [more...]

Spoiled Rich Kids Go Jihad

By Robert Spencer, Author of Intifada on the Hudson: The Selling of Zohran Mamdani

And another mainstream assumption regarding terrorism goes up in smoke.

Muslims in their late teens and early twenties have recently been arrested in Michigan, New Jersey, and Washington state. They all seem to have been involved in plotting jihad massacres for the Islamic State: the Michigan jihadis wanted to hit gay bars in Detroit, and the Seattle and New Jersey jihadis were formulating plans for jihad massacres at Jewish targets. Such jihad plots are certain to become increasingly common in the U.S., given mass Muslim migration with the unshakeable assumption that every Muslim who enters the country is a "moderate." The jihadis in Washington and New Jersey, however, show the falsity of another core assumption: that poverty and lack of education lead to terrorism. [more...]

The Government Shut-Down is All Up to Dems

By Greg Rabidoux, Award-Winning Filmmaker, Author & Cultural Commentator

The shut-down won't end until the Dems decide it's time. And they won't until the Marxist radicals who now control their Party allow them (The Senate Democrats) to do so. Will it come after Zohran Mamdani, the radical Socialist who supports global intifada and lots of free stuff for all, becomes the next Mayor of NYC? Maybe. Will it come when Palestinian extremist and terrorist-linked leader Linda Sarsour, a key power behind Mamdani's rise from unknown 29-year-old State Assemblyman to Mayor decides it is? Maybe. Or, will the shut-down end when too many key Democrat candidates start squealing from painful polling about the upcoming midterm elections? More likely. Power not policy, ideology not outcome rules the modern-day Left these days. [more...]

I was Banned, Shadow-Banned, Censored and Silenced by Media

By Wayne Allyn Root, National TV Host

I was the first mainstream TV and radio host in America to warn my viewers and listeners to run away from the Covid vaccine like it was a hand grenade. And then the un-American censorship started. I was being demonized and slandered as "a conspiracy theorist and a spreader of misinformation." All for the sin of simply speaking my opinions, and reporting the truth, in order to save lives - and keep my fans healthy. [more...]

Mamdani's Campaign Was Made in Pakistan

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the Horowitz Freedom Center

This is what foreign election interference looks like.

In my early analysis of what made Mamdani the NYC mayoral nominee, I noted that there was high turnout by the Pakistani and Bangladeshi Muslim settler population in New York City combined with really low turnout and enthusiasm by traditional Democrats who weren't exactly enthused by Cuomo, et al. The 5% of New Yorkers who voted in the primary were very much a minority. This was a campaign driven by Mamdani's fellow Indian Muslims in occupied Pakistan and Bangladesh. Not even in the United States. [more...]

Mamdani and the Long Arc of Socialism

By Todd Sheets, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

"The parade of Democrats lining up behind Zohran Mamdani for mayor of New York City continues to grow, and the latest convert is House Minority Leader Hakeem Jefferies (The Wall Street Journal ). On October 23, former Democratic Senator Joe Manchin commented about the deep divide in his own Party: "The bottom line is, I've been telling them for the longest time, the 'D' brand is toxic. And the reason it's toxic is because you've allowed the far-left progressive wing of our party to define who we are. This is a battle for the soul of the Democratic Party. Are we going to be a party that's inclusive of all Democrats, or is this going to be a party of the far, far left?" [more...]

One of Mamdani's Supporters Makes the Best Case Against Him Yet

By Robert Spencer, Author of Intifada on the Hudson: The Selling of Zohran Mamdani

Linda Sarsour is no longer as high-profile as she once was, but those who remember the rough-and-tumble of a decade or so ago will recall her as a far-left agitator who epitomized the leftist/Islamic alliance by donning a hijab while styling herself as a feminist. She was also never shy about expressing a deep hatred for Israel, and so it comes as no surprise that Sarsour has now resurfaced as a strong supporter of the Marxist, Muslim Israel-hating likely next mayor of New York, Zohran Mamdani. Sarsour has, however, inadvertently revealed what could be the most damaging aspect that has been revealed up to this point about his plans as mayor. That’s not to say, however, that this revelation is likely to hurt his chances of being elected on Tuesday; for many of his supporters, what Sarsour has revealed is an altogether good thing.

A New Study Just Exposed the Corruption Behind America's Homelessness Crisis

New investigation reveals how taxpayer money meant for homeless aid bankrolls anti-American political agendas

For years, Americans have been told that "compassion" for the homeless meant writing ever-larger checks – more money, more programs and far less accountability. Now, at last, we have some answers for why homelessness has exploded even amid a tripling of public spending. A groundbreaking investigation - "Infiltrated" – backed by more than 50 pages of documentation from the Capital Research Center in cooperation with Discovery Institute – pulls back the curtain on a vast system of corruption. It reveals how billions in taxpayer funds intended to lift people out of homelessness have instead bankrolled radical activism and anti-American political agendas, betraying both the taxpayers who fund it and the homeless they were meant to help.

Senate Witnesses Discuss Reshoring and Making China's Massive Biotech Ecosystem Less Attractive for Big Pharma

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

Witnesses at a Senate hearing on Wednesday, Oct. 29 titled "The Future of Biotech" discussed ways to facilitate reshoring and making it attractive to expand in the U.S. and conduct R&D here instead of in China. China has made itself an indispensable partner of Big Pharma. Their labs are becoming more innovative and are expected to be the main rival for Western pharmaceutical companies at home, and throughout Asian markets. China made biotechnology a key economic sector, using subsidies, scale, and speed to rival U.S. innovation. They want to be major global players in pharmaceuticals, one of the most traded items in global commerce. [more...]

The NYC Mayoral Election Will Come Down to Turnout, Not Polls

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the Horowitz Freedom Center

The polls don't matter.

The long silly debate over whether Cuomo or Sliwa should drop out is pointless and moot. The base for both candidates is unlikely to switch. In a two-man race, some Sliwa supporters might vote for Cuomo just to oppose Mamdani, others will just stay home, while few Cuomo voters, who are mainly Democrats, stand any real chance of going to Sliwa. The polls being brandished by both sides are only semi-relevant because everything will come down to turnout. Mamdani ended up as the nominee in a low-turnout primary because his base - leftists and Muslims - had all the enthusiasm and no one was especially enthusiastic about voting for Cuomo. That's still the case. [more...] Watch Daniel at www.RallyForNYC.org on Nov. 2

The Most Misunderstood Infrastructure Project on the Planet

By Kerry Lutz, Host of Financial Survival Network

How Elon's tunnels are quietly rewriting the laws of urban mobility

When future historians look back at the 2020s, they'll see the Las Vegas Loop as the Wright Flyer of urban transit - mocked and misunderstood - but still the first machine that actually flew. The Boring Company didn't invent tunnels; they invented a way to build mobility without bureaucracy. They drilled under the problem - literally - and proved that private innovation can move faster than public paralysis. [more...]

The Dire Hour to Defend American Beauty

Michael Finch's gripping new classic unveils the fight for the heart of a nation.  

A TIME TO STAND: The Dire Hour to Defend American Beauty, authored by Freedom Center President Michael Finch, is a powerful tribute to the enduring spirit of America - our liberty, our land, our hopes, our memories, our faith and the beauty of our culture that we seek to restore. Finch clearly but poetically lays out what is at stake in the fight against the leftist ethos that views America as a systematically racist, sexist, nation steeped in original sin: "American culture is rotting," he states, adding that "The 'uglification' of American culture is so pervasive that it is almost impossible to imagine that something better, more beautiful and enduring had once existed... or that we may be able to climb out of the cultural morass we find ourselves in."

Trump vs. Blue Cities

By Todd Sheets, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

Over the past few months, President Trump has deployed troops into Washington, D.C., Los Angeles, Portland and Chicago with the stated intention of protecting ICE agents and federal property, and to restore safety and security for the cities' residents. Democratic governors and mayors have reacted with outrage. At one level, their frustrations seem to be an outgrowth of an over-arching narrative that has come to dominate Party thinking: i.e., that Trump represents an existential threat to democracy and his "troop deployments" are the beginning of a hostile takeover of Democratic enclaves. At a second, more granular level, Trump's opponents have made a series of legal and political charges regarding these actions, including that the deployments are... [more...]

Dem Makes a Throat-Slashing Gesture

By Robert Spencer, Author of Intifada on the Hudson: The Selling of Zohran Mamdani

Leftists all over the country have been making it clear for quite some time: they love violence and want to see violence done to patriots. There was all the leftist cheering after the assassination of Charlie Kirk, as well as numerous more or less veiled calls from leftist politicians to go after those whom they fear and hate with weapons a good bit more lethal than compelling debate points. Now, a Texas state representative, Jolanda Jones (D-Of Course), has added her name to the list of these politicians with a throat-slashing gesture that she made - so afraid is she of Trump's alleged fascist stormtroopers - not in the privacy of her lavish dwelling, but on CNN.

Bringing Back the Cultural Revolution

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

As has been made shockingly clear since the assassination of peaceful activist Charlie Kirk, Democrats now don't even bother to rein in rhetoric that celebrates and incites violence against their political opponents, whom they justify hating and killing by declaring them fascists and Nazis. Veteran Democrat strategist James Carville's recent outburst, for example, demonstrates that they are ready to bring back the most disturbing excesses of Mao's Cultural Revolution. [more...]

The U.S.-China Trade War Isn't Cooling; It's Just Getting Started

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

The China trade war is escalating. Or is it? We have until Nov. 10 to know for sure. That is when Trump's and Xi's 90-day pause to tariff escalation ends. How's it going as we approach the deadline? Well, on Friday President Trump said China was about to get whacked with 100% tariffs after Halloween. Trump completely changed his tune on Sunday. He is playing the role of both good cop and bad cop, a role he has down pat. He suggested cooler heads will prevail in China and the U.S. All is well! "Highly respected Xi Jinping just had a bad day," Trump said on the Truth Social platform he created. Calm down, everybody. (And, at that, the market rose on Monday.) Is it really OK? [more...]

Is the USA Destined to Become the United Socialists of America?

Darned if we don't all keep reliving history over and over again - Marxism versus Capitalism... Lenin versus Madison… Mao versus Washington. It doesn't seem to matter how many times socialism and communism fail - or how many countries slide right into totalitarian societies after their "can't miss" socialism fails. Russia, Venezuela, Cuba, China. Or how allowing unregulated immigration while giving every newcomer free stuff, while demonizing free markets, while worshipping imposed equity, all the while taxing innovation and wealth to death causes once proud, strong nations to spiral into mediocrity. The UK. France. Germany. Finland, Sweden. Switzerland. Spain. Are we destined to be next? [more...]

Hostages and Hope(?) In the Middle East

By Todd Sheets, Author of 2008: What Really Happened

Last Friday, a ceasefire in the war between Israel and Hamas went into effect. On Monday, the remaining living Israeli hostages were finally released into the waiting arms of a country wondering if they would ever see their loved ones again. In the days since, even some of the most hardened Israeli historians have commented that this agreement might actually lead to long-term peace. However, even as these sentiments were being expressed, Hamas resorted to brutally murdering leaders of other Palestinian groups that threatened its control over Gaza; some were publicly executed, others hung from lampposts. So, what are we to make of these developments? [more...]

What the Stats Really Say About Crime Surge

By John Lott, Worldwide Expert on Guns & Crime

During last year's presidential debate between Donald Trump and Kamala Harris, Trump said violent crime was rising. ABC moderator David Muir immediately fact-checked him, claiming, "President Trump, as you know, the FBI says overall violent crime is coming down in this country..." Nearly every major media outlet echoed that narrative. National Public Radio ran the headline, "Violent crime is dropping fast in the U.S. - even if Americans don't believe it." The Wall Street Journal declared, "Violent Crime Rate Falls Sharply After Pandemic Surge." Vox insisted, "Violent crime is plummeting." Axios reported, "New data shows violent crime dropping sharply in major U.S. cities." However, a new Bureau of Justice Statistics report, which includes data through 2024, shows that Trump was right during the debate... [more...]

Mamdani's Terror Mosque Called for Taking Over America

By Daniel Greenfield, CEO of the Horowitz Freedom Center

"You get involved in politics because politics are a weapon to use in the cause of Islam."

After Zohran Mamdani castigated Cuomo for not visiting a mosque, he showed him how it was done by visiting the Al-Taqwa Mosque and posing smilingly with its Jihadist Imam Siraj Wahhaj. Mamdani, running to be NYC's first Muslim mayor, had already visited a great many mosques, some, like the Islamic Society of Bay Ridge, already notorious for its support for Hamas and cursing Christians and Jews, but had saved the worst mosque for last. The progressive candidate openly embraced an imam who not only supported terrorism but had called for the full application of Islamic Sharia law "If Allah says cut off their hand, you cut off their hand..."

Housing Without Healing Won't Cure Homelessness

By Michele Steeb, Discovery Institute's Fix Homelessness Initiative

Homelessness in California - and across America - has reached a breaking point. The crisis has climbed to the highest level ever recorded, even as billions more are poured into housing subsidies and bureaucratic programs that promise compassion but deliver only despair. No one bears the consequences more cruelly than the homeless themselves. Their death rate has soared by 77% in the country's largest urban areas, a devastating indictment of a system that prioritizes housing units over human healing. President Trump's recent executive order marks the first real course correction in over a decade. By directing federal funds toward treatment, recovery and accountability, it recenters homeless policy on a recognition that lasting change requires addressing the root causes of homelessness: addiction, mental illness and broken lives in need of structure and care.

The Dangers of AI Companions

Those who regularly engage with chatbots may or may not realize that they may actually be forfeiting genuine connections in exchange for digital illusions. Emerging research is sounding the alarm about the dangers of human-AI interaction. [more...]
