The divide within the Republican Party is becoming increasingly evident as tensions mount over health care policies and budget priorities. A significant number of voters, including many who supported former President Donald Trump, are voicing concerns about possible cuts to the Affordable Care Act (ACA) and the impact these changes might have on millions of Americans.

Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made headlines recently with an attempt to ridicule Stephen Miller, the White House Deputy Chief of Policy. Her remarks came during an Instagram Live session, where she vented her frustrations about members of the Trump Administration.

Miller quickly turned the tables during an appearance on “The Ingraham Angle.” His response was both sharp and humorous, demonstrating he was unfazed by AOC’s insults. “We knew…

The recent memo from the White House marks a notable escalation in U.S. military tactics against narco-traffickers in Latin America. This shift, labeling the operations as part of an “armed conflict” with drug cartels, indicates a new approach that closely resembles wartime strategies.

This classification fundamentally alters the parameters of how the U.S. views and engages with these groups. In the memo sent to Congress, U.S. officials described the traffickers as “unlawful combatants.” This allows for military…
