John Fetterman has never been a perfect fit for the modern Democratic Party.

President Donald Trump is pointing to a new roadmap for restricting birthright citizenship, this time through Congress rather than an executive order.

On June 30, the Supreme …

Kamala Harris marked America’s 250th birthday with a post on X, and it may be the most hollow piece of political messaging to emerge from the holiday weekend.

A damning new inspector general report from the Department of Homeland Security has pulled back the curtain on the Secret Service’s catastrophic failure in Butler, Pennsylvania, and the details are genuinely shocking.

The Supreme Court has delivered a pair of significant immigration victories for the Trump administration, and the political fallout from the left has been swift and fierce.

Donald Trump burned enormous political capital getting his Supreme Court picks confirmed. The battles were brutal, the stakes were high, and the opposition was relentless.

Austin’s Central Library was supposed to be a crown jewel. A $125 million, six-story architectural landmark with a rooftop garden, art gallery, café, and dedicated children’s spaces. More than 200,000 square feet of publicly funded community space that took over a decade to complete. Today, it’s at the center of a very different conversation. A …

The Supreme Court has spoken on birthright citizenship. The Fourteenth Amendment protects it. Case closed, right? Not necessarily. Justice Brett Kavanaugh may have quietly handed Congress a playbook for changing the rules, without touching the Constitution itself. In his opinion, Kavanaugh acknowledged something that tends to get lost in the broader debate: large-scale illegal immigration …
The Democratic Party is shifting fast. Socialists are winning elections in left-wing strongholds, pushing out longtime incumbents and pulling the party further from its traditional center.

The Supreme Court has delivered a landmark ruling on transgender participation in women’s sports, affirming that states have the authority to restrict eligibility based on biological sex.

Republicans have been under growing pressure to pass the SAVE America Act, a bill designed to tighten voting rules across the country. And here’s the thing: this isn’t just a conservative priority.

The word “temporary” apparently means something different to certain politicians in Washington.
