America is tired. Not tired of debate. Not tired of conviction. Americans can handle disagreement. What they are weary of is perpetual combat. They are weary of the temperature always being set at boiling. They are weary of economic anxiety, cultural distrust and political trench warfare that seems to reward outrage more than results.

Every career begins with a defining moment, an instant when preparation meets courage and the future quietly changes course.

For me, that moment came in 1983, when, at just 21 years old, I brought Richard Pryor to speak before more than 1,500 employees at the U.S. Department of Agriculture in Washington, D.C. I was young, untested and ...Read more

Americans are often warned about the dangers of overreaction, hysteria or xenophobia, and rightly so. But there is an equal danger in denial. What the country has witnessed over the past several years is not a series of disconnected curiosities, nor the product of political imagination. It is a pattern of incursions, violations and ...Read more

As I read the commentary across social media, legacy media and the broader public discourse surrounding the latest deadly shooting in Minnesota, I see something deeper than disagreement over facts or law. I see a nation struggling to reconcile rights, authority, fear and accountability in moments when events move faster than judgment.

Let's ...Read more

The debate over children and social media is often framed as a question of parental control or technological inevitability. It should not be. At its core, this is a moral question about what kind of society we are shaping, what we choose to protect, and what we are willing to sacrifice in the name of convenience, profit and false notions of ...Read more

Let's dispense with the convenient fiction: Immigration and Customs Enforcement is not the primary threat to our communities. The real danger lies in the growing normalization of disorder, intimidation and lawlessness -- often wrapped in the language of "justice" but driven by something far less noble. What we are witnessing is not spontaneous ...Read more

Dictator and narco-terrorist Nicolas Maduro was captured by U.S. forces in a thrilling nighttime raid on his palace in Caracas, Venezuela, in an operation codenamed Operation Absolute Resolve. The mission involved over 150 aircraft launched from around 20 bases across the hemisphere. It neutralized much of Venezuela's air defenses, cut power in ...Read more

Nick Fuentes is often described as dangerous not because he is merely provocative but because his rhetoric and worldview actively undermine the moral foundations of a pluralistic democracy and the credibility of any political movement that tolerates him. His record of racist, antisemitic and misogynistic statements -- particularly when aimed at ...Read more

Former New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg once expressed great confidence about his eternal destiny, remarking that he had earned his place in heaven. That sentiment is not uncommon in public life. Achievement, influence, philanthropy or power can quietly become the measuring sticks by which we assess ourselves -- and others -- when we ...Read more

Life in America doesn't feel like life right now. It feels like triage.

People get up, commute, grind through work, juggle kids and side hustles, scroll through their phones in bed until their eyes burn, then do it again tomorrow. They are surviving, but they are not living.

The numbers explain why. The average American now carries around $...Read more

Minnesota is now facing one of the largest documented government service fraud scandals in United States history. Under Gov. Tim Walz's evidently unwatchful eye, federal prosecutors have estimated that approximately $1 billion in taxpayer funds have been siphoned from multiple state- and federally funded social service programs over the last ...Read more

The political landscape heading into the 2026 midterms is far more volatile than many Republicans want to admit. On paper, the GOP holds the advantage: the House majority, a favorable national mood on issues like immigration and crime, and an opposition party internally split between moderates and an increasingly aggressive progressive wing. ...Read more

Before the House and Senate voted nearly unanimously -- with just one "nay" in the House -- to unseal the Epstein investigative records, the Epstein estate released 20,000 pages of unseen Epstein files to the House Oversight Committee. Following that, Democrats began their tour of publicizing a handpicked set of documents from that newly ...Read more
