Wayne Allyn Root reflects on a bold moment from May 2016, when he appeared on HBO’s “Real Time with Bill Maher.” During that show, he confidently predicted Donald Trump would defeat Hillary Clinton. However, it was another prediction concerning transgender issues that captured the essence of his message: “a bridge too far for the American people.” Root asserted that the acceptance of transgender ideology, particularly in schools, would push average Americans away from the Democrat Party. His claim that such extreme views would lead to political demise is proving prescient. Root revisits that conversation and highlights the reality today—the Democrat…

In the latest New York City mayoral campaign filings, Zohran Mamdani, the self-described democratic socialist, has garnered significant attention—not just for his radical views, but also for the substantial financial backing he received from far beyond the city’s borders. According to data from the New York City Campaign Finance Board, Mamdani raised over $1 million this summer, with a striking 53.5% of that money, amounting to $562,422, coming from out of state. This raises questions about the true source of his campaign’s support and its implications for his electoral viability. Mamdani’s fundraising prowess is apparent, boasting 8,628 unique donors, yet…
A fundamental shift in the handling of semiconductor research funding is underway as the Biden administration’s attempt to create the National Center for the Advancement of Semiconductor Technology Center, or Natcast, comes to an abrupt end. On Monday, Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick announced that the National Institute of Standards and Technology will take over operations for the National Semiconductor Technology Center. This change arises from concerns surrounding how Natcast was formed. Lutnick criticized the setup as a means to secure soft landings for Biden administration loyalists. “From the very beginning, Natcast served as a semiconductor slush fund that did nothing…
Six American citizens now face prosecution in South Korea for what can only be described as an act of compassion. On June 27, 2025, these individuals, aged between 20 and 50, attempted to send approximately 1,300 plastic bottles into the sea off Ganghwa Island, located close to the North Korean border. Each bottle contained rice, one-dollar bills, and Bibles. They described their mission as purely humanitarian and religious, aimed at helping starving North Koreans. Yet, instead of being commended for their charity, they were charged and face potential penalties under a disaster management law. The South Korean authorities have officially…
This year’s Burning Man festival has once again drawn attention, but not just for its artistic expressions or spirited gatherings. Instead, the focus has shifted to the chaos that unfolded under the unforgiving Nevada skies. Tens of thousands of “Burners” came to the event this year, only to be met with fierce dust storms that wreaked havoc on their camps, with winds peaking at over 45 miles per hour. A representative from the festival noted, “It’s a testament to the unpredictability of this desert.” The prevailing conditions seemed to echo memories from the previous year’s festival, where attendees faced significant…
Hannity, a prominent Fox News host, recently made pointed remarks suggesting that Democrats have shown their true colors. His claim highlights the fierce political rivalry and ongoing debates within American politics. Hannity’s commentary serves as a stark reminder of the fractious relationship between lawmakers and the public, particularly as midterm elections approach. Hugh Hewitt posed a critical question about the efficacy of President Trump’s tariffs. His probing indicated a strategic inquiry into whether these measures are genuinely delivering benefits as promised. These discussions around tariffs remain pertinent; they influence economic conditions and ultimately the lives of ordinary citizens. Such inquiries…
In a significant move, another alleged member of the Tren de Aragua gang was apprehended in Washington, D.C., on Monday night. This arrest comes as Attorney General Pam Bondi announces notable statistics following the federal law enforcement takeover of the capital. To date, more than 1,094 arrests have been made, along with 115 illegal firearms seized. Bondi proclaimed, “87 more arrests and 4 illegal firearms seized last night in Washington, D.C.—where not a single carjacking has occurred over the past week.” She emphasized the importance of maintaining safety in the city, stating, “Make D.C. Safe Again!” The recent crackdowns don’t…
Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook is now at the center of a controversy following her firing by the President of the United States. Cook, appointed by the current administration, stands accused of mortgage fraud, prompting allegations significant enough to warrant an investigation. Special Prosecutor Ed Martin is leading the inquiry into these serious claims. President Trump announced Cook’s removal in a letter stating, “I have determined that there is sufficient cause to remove you from your position.” He cited the referral by housing regulator Bill Pulte, detailing Cook’s alleged misconduct in her mortgage applications. According to the allegations, Cook misrepresented…
President Donald Trump recently indicated that the Department of Defense may be rebranded back to its original title, the Department of War. Speaking from the White House, Trump praised Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, stating he has done “incredible” work in what Trump prefers to call the “Department of War.” He explained, “You know we call it the Department of Defense, but between us, I think we’re going to change the name.” This assertion embodies Trump’s emphasis on military history and strength. The President believes the name change would more accurately reflect the nation’s military heritage. He said, “You know,…
In a press conference held outside Trump Tower in Chicago, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker criticized President Donald Trump, labeling him a “wannabe dictator.” Pritzker’s remarks came in response to reports suggesting the possible deployment of National Guard troops to Chicago as soon as September. He expressed deep concern over what he sees as Trump’s escalating rhetoric against Chicago and its leadership amid ongoing crime issues. “This is exactly the type of overreach that our country’s founders warned against,” Pritzker asserted. He emphasized the unprecedented nature of such a military presence, arguing that it would violate constitutional rights and fundamentally undermine…
Laura Ingraham didn’t pull any punches during her interview with Secretary of Commerce Howard Lutnick regarding President Trump’s recent decision to welcome up to 600,000 Chinese students into U.S. universities. This proposition from the White House doubles the current enrollment of 270,000 Chinese students. Trump characterized this move as “strategic,” suggesting it would enhance trade negotiations with China and assist financially struggling American universities. “It’s very important, 600,000 students. It’s very important. But we’re going to get along with China,” he asserted. Critics of the policy have voiced strong opposition, perceiving it as a contradiction of the America First ethos.…
House Republicans are intensifying their oversight of California’s top medical schools by demanding access to internal documents as part of an investigation into alleged antisemitism. The inquiry comes from the House Education and Workforce Committee, chaired by Rep. Tim Walberg of Michigan, who has set a two-week deadline for the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) and UC San Francisco (UCSF) to comply. The committee aims to assess how these institutions have handled reports of Jewish individuals facing “hostility and fear” on campus. In this investigation, Walberg’s letters specifically request “all documents and communications” related to reported antisemitic incidents dating…
In a significant development for the Jan. 6 community, Ashli Babbitt’s mother, Micki Witthoeft, announced at the First Amendment Film Fest in Greenville, Texas, that the United States Air Force would reinstate her daughter’s military honors. This marks a long-awaited recognition for an Air Force veteran who dedicated 14 years to her country, serving deployments in Afghanistan and working at the Pentagon.

Micki’s announcement on Friday drew a standing ovation from the crowd, highlighting the emotional weight of the…
California finds itself tangled in controversy once again, this time due to the actions of Democratic Governor Gavin Newsom. The situation escalated dramatically when an illegal immigrant, Harjinder Singh, allegedly killed three people in a crash caused by an illegal U-turn in Florida. The accident was tragic and raises serious questions about the state’s immigration policies. On August 12, Singh made the ill-fated U-turn while driving a semi-truck on a Florida highway, resulting in a horrific collision with a minivan. The impact was so severe that three innocent lives were lost. This led to Singh’s arrest and impending deportation efforts…
Since the 1973 Arab-Israeli War, no Arab state has dared to confront Israel militarily. The landscape of conflict, however, has shifted dramatically. Since 2006, Iran has taken charge of hostilities against Israel, employing proxy warfare and ideological manipulation instead of direct military action. This strategy engineers resentment on the Arab street while masking its true ambitions beneath the guise of religious zealotry. Iran’s Sejjil missile, translated as “shards hurled at the deviant,” epitomizes a regime driven by deep-seated theological fervor and ritualistic animosity. The rhetoric from Tehran’s clerical elite reflects not only political motives but also a theological narrative built…
Adolfo Martinez is certainly no role model. The man has a troubling history, recently highlighted by his 2019 conviction for tearing down an LGBT flag during “pride” month outside a liberal church in Ames, Iowa. According to KCCI, he received a lengthy 16-year sentence for hate crime arson, third-degree harassment, and reckless use of fire, largely due to his status as a habitual offender. It raises an important question: if burning an LGBT flag is deemed a hate crime outside the boundaries of free speech protection, then why should anyone be allowed to burn the American flag? President Donald Trump…
As of August 29, a significant shift in international shipping to the United States is underway as several postal services in countries like Britain, France, Germany, and others announce a suspension of their shipments. This action follows President Trump’s executive order, which eliminates the de minimis exemption that once allowed packages valued under $800 to enter America duty-free. While the announcement is framed as a response to confusion regarding tariffs, the reality suggests that it serves a different purpose altogether. The decision to halt shipments appears politically motivated. It comes not long after Trump signed the order aimed at curbing…
President Donald Trump has taken a bold step by seeking to remove Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook, a figure appointed by Joe Biden. This move follows serious allegations against Cook, who stands accused of submitting fraudulent mortgage documents. In a formal letter to Cook, Trump stated, “There is sufficient cause to remove you from your position.” The situation escalates as Cook, the third major Democrat to face scrutiny over mortgage fraud, has publicly refused to resign. She argues that Trump lacks the authority to dismiss her, insisting that “I have no intention of being bullied to step down.” The allegations…
Recent tensions have flared between CNN host Abby Phillip and former “Biggest Loser” trainer Jillian Michaels, who now takes on the role of a conservative commentator. Their clash centers on Michaels’ remarks about slavery in America and what Phillip termed a mischaracterization of those comments. The dispute ignited on August 13 during a “NewsNight” panel where Michaels confronted fellow guest Julie Roginsky. Michaels argued, “You cannot tie imperialism and racism and slavery to just one race, which is pretty much what every single exhibit does.” The discussion turned tense when Congressman Ritchie Torres claimed that “slavery in America was White…
In recent updates surrounding President Trump’s legal battles, a significant courtroom victory has led to a bold response from the former President. Posting on Truth Social after the appellate court upheld a ruling in his favor, Trump unleashed a fierce critique against Judge Arthur Engoron, labeling him as “corrupt, crooked, and incompetent.” This statement follows the court’s decision to overturn a massive fine imposed in a case brought forth by New York Attorney General Letitia James. On August 21, the appellate court ruled that the financial penalties—exceeding half a billion dollars—were excessive under the Eighth Amendment, which forbids cruel and…
In late June, the United States Supreme Court delivered a pivotal ruling regarding judicial authority that could reshape executive power moving forward. This decision significantly constrains the ability of district court judges to issue sweeping nationwide injunctions that impede presidential actions. Central to the case was the Trump Administration’s push to enforce a limitation on birthright citizenship. While the Court chose not to address the citizenship issue directly, it clearly limited the scope of what lower courts can do in blocking presidential initiatives. Justice Amy Coney Barrett, in her majority opinion, articulated a crucial distinction. She stated, “The universal injunction…
Many Boston police officers are standing firmly against Democratic Mayor Michelle Wu’s policies on immigration. These officers are reportedly providing essential intelligence to federal authorities, showing defiance that has significant implications for local law enforcement and public safety. Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons shared this cooperation during a recent appearance, highlighting how many officers “want to work with us” and are helping “behind the scenes.” Lyons emphasized a strong federal response: “We’re definitely going to, as you’ve heard the saying, flood the zone, especially in sanctuary jurisdictions.” His words reflect an urgent strategy to address what he sees as a…
In early July, Agriculture Secretary Brooke Rollins made an announcement that addresses a growing concern among rural conservatives: the Trump Administration’s initiative to block individuals and entities from the People’s Republic of China from purchasing American farmland. This significant move is part of the “National Farm Security Action Plan” unveiled by the USDA. The plan seeks to enhance agricultural security, stating clearly, “Agriculture is foundational to our nation. Our Founders saw agriculture as the essential pursuit to the cultivation of republican ideals.” The urgency of this initiative is palpable as it addresses not just economic but also national security concerns.…
In the wake of former Senator Gary Peters’ announcement that he will not run for reelection in 2026, the race to fill his seat is already taking shape. Rep. Haley Stevens, a Democrat from Michigan, is stepping into the fray, eager to secure her position in this critical swing state. The Democratic National Committee, aware of the stakes, is now confronted with the challenge of finding a suitable candidate to compete against a well-organized Republican bench. Stevens quickly declared her candidacy, showcasing what many have deemed her “woke ideology.” She openly criticized what she referred to as the “Trump-Musk chaos…
In February 2025, Elon Musk made headlines during his appearance on Joe Rogan’s podcast, “Joe Rogan Experience.” Discussing his role as head of the Department of Government Efficiency, Musk highlighted a pressing concern regarding the influence of Democrat-connected non-governmental organizations (NGOs) funded by wealthy benefactors like George Soros. “It’s actually, it’s kind of a hack to the system where someone can get an NGO stood up for a fairly small amount of money,” Musk remarked, emphasizing how these financial setups manipulate taxpayer dollars for political gain. Musk noted that Soros has mastered this system, likening him to a hacker. “George…
