Trump announces a $50 million big game hunt for the gullible

From the Right / Rachel Marsden /

PARIS — Here we go again. Another round of “maximum pressure” against the leader of a country that won’t bend the knee to Washington. And this time, they’re letting the American public think that they can actually play along for a cash prize. What could possibly go wrong?

As always with Washington publicity stunts, it seems legit ...Read more

How the Left Feeds Hunger in Gaza

From the Right / Victor Joecks /

If Western leftists cared less about starving children in Gaza, there would be fewer starving children in Gaza.

Food shortages have been a major concern in the Gaza Strip. U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee recently said that those living there face "hunger and deprivation and possibly starvation."

Leftists blame Israel.

"The forced ...Read more

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

As President Trump prepares to head to Alaska to meet with Russian President Vladimir Putin to “stop the killing” in Russia and Ukraine, what is being done to stop school shootings in America as millions of children begin returning to their schools this week?

Washington D.C. Is A Disgrace

From the Right / Rich Lowry /

At its best, Washington, D.C., is a city of timeless grandeur, of iconic monuments and world-historical centers of power.

At its worst, it's a harrowing place where a remorseless 14-year-old could steal your car.

The confluence of these two Washingtons in the terrible early-morning beating of the DOGE employee Edward Coristine, known by his ...Read more

America Must Never Apologize for Dropping the Bombs on Japan

From the Right / Josh Hammer /

This week marks the 80th anniversary of President Harry Truman's fateful decision to drop atomic bombs on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki (respectively, Aug. 6 and 9, 1945).

RFK Jr.'s War on Vaccines and Public Health Continues

From the Right / David Harsanyi /

Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is trying to convince Americans that vaccines will hurt them. No matter what superficial throwaway statements he offers the public to the contrary, that's the obvious goal.

In the newest front in his cause, the Department of Health and Human Services secretary has canceled $500 million in mRNA research, an effort President...Read more

The Future Requires Dinosaurs

From the Right / Erick Erickson /

Long before man walked the Earth, God in His providence created the animals, then sent a massive asteroid that collided with the Earth, wiped out the dinosaurs and other large animals, piled rubble, heat and pressure on top of them and turned them into fossil fuels. Or something like that. God, generously, provided a source of energy a long, ...Read more

Hollywood's Writers Wage War on 'King' Trump!

From the Right / Tim Graham /

The entertainment press found it very important to report that Hollywood thinks President Donald Trump is an authoritarian. This is still somehow considered "news." Over 2,300 members of the Writers Guild felt compelled to speak out in an open letter because they believe in their "role in a healthy democracy."

In 2024, democracy was healthy, ...Read more

Learning From America's Immigrant Past

From the Right / Michael Barone /

When debating current issues, it's helpful to avoid inaccurate depictions of past policy, especially on immigration, in which both opponents and advocates of President Donald Trump's policies have views based on not altogether accurate renditions of the past.

Many opponents of Trump's policies seem to believe the president wants to cut off ...Read more

The Runaway Texas Democrats

Where Are the Heroes?

Following the tragic mass shooting in Midtown Manhattan, New York City, that resulted in the deaths of four individuals, including a New York City Police Department officer, we must confront a vital question: Where were the heroes?

To Aid the Economy, Trump Must Restore Confidence in Institutions

The Trump administration stands on the cusp of something potentially transformative.

Why the Democrats Are in Such a Terrible State

From the Right / Laura Hollis /

Ever since Donald Trump was reelected president last November, winning the Electoral College and the popular vote (the first time a Republican has done so since 2004), the Democratic Party has been battered by bad news:

-- Voter demographics Democrats have traditionally been able to rely on swung heavily Republican in 2024, including...Read more

NEW YORK, NEW YORK - AUGUST 01: Billboards of actress Sydney Sweeney is seen outside of an American Eagle store on August 01, 2025 in New York City. American Eagle’s recent denim ad campaign featuring  Sweeney has drawn backlash for language and imagery that critics say echoes eugenics-era rhetoric, following a tagline referencing “great genes” alongside visuals of Sweeney in blue jeans.

Sydney Sweeney Joins the Woke Brokers

From the Right / Cal Thomas /

Some fads end slowly, taking up to a generation to wane. Others are like lightning, bursting on the scene unexpectedly, destroying all in its path.

This is what has happened in the Sydney Sweeney storm. An ad for American Eagle blue jeans and especially the reaction to it catapulted the 27-year-old actress to national fame and controversy.

To Trump, ‘Truth’ is Only What He Wants It To Be

From the Right / S.E. Cupp /

You know the old philosophical question: “If a tree falls in the forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?”

Well, in President Trump’s America, the answer would depend on whether or not he wanted it to.

In a world where the only “truth” is found on Trump’s Truth Social, the only “facts” are alternative ones,...Read more

An Allegedly Civilized World Genuflects to Hamas

From the Right / Star Parker /

As the governments of the U.K., Canada and France announce their intent to recognize a Palestinian state, I recall the words of C.S. Lewis, so aptly quoted by President Ronald Reagan in his famous "evil empire" speech:

"The greatest evil is not done now ... in those sordid 'dens of crime' that Dickens loved to paint. It is ... not even done ...Read more

Hiroshima's Cloud and the Ukraine Ceasefire Deadline

From the Right / Austin Bay /

The 80th anniversaries of the atomic bomb attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki provide an instructive moment for Russian dictator Vladimir Putin to mull the costs of war and the benefits of peace -- and perhaps rethink risking a head-to-head collision with nuclear-armed America and a revitalized and rearming NATO.

The nuclear weapons dropped on ...Read more

Scaring and Bullying Jewish Schoolkids Is on the Ballot This November

From the Right / Betsy McCaughey /

"From the river to the sea" -- shorthand for the obliteration of Israel. It's a phrase meant to terrorize.

Here in the U.S., from the Hudson River to the Pacific, antisemitism is surging in public schools. The Trump administration, which is cracking down on the abuse of Jewish students on college campuses, needs to also turn attention to the ...Read more

Mamdani Has So Many Bad Ideas, I Can't Fit Them In This Column!

From the Right / John Stossel /

I live in New York City. "Proud Democratic Socialist" Zohran Mamdani is likely to be my next mayor. I'm not happy about it. But I am outnumbered. Mamdani is popular. He won more primary votes than any other candidate in the city's history. Minneapolis may also elect a socialist mayor. Why?! How deluded can voters be? I want to explain why their ...Read more
