During a recent press conference, Rep.

The Florida Republican, a combat veteran who sacrificed both legs in Afghanistan, passionately addressed the disturbing funding priorities of his Democratic colleagues amid a government shutdown.

New Jersey’s upcoming election could mark a significant shift in its political landscape. After eight years of Democratic leadership, a recent Emerson College Polling survey suggests that Republican Jack Ciattarelli is within striking distance of Democrat Mikie Sherrill. Currently, Sherrill leads the race with 49 percent to Ciattarelli’s 48 percent. However, the margin of error sits at three percentage points, which effectively ties the candidates, signaling a competitive race. Both candidates have shown strong support among specific demographic groups. Sherrill has a noticeable advantage among black and Hispanic voters, although recent polling indicates a decline in her margins within these…

Ten individuals now face federal charges linked to an ambush of law enforcement during a raid at Glass House Farms in Ventura County.

Zohran Mamdani’s campaign for mayor of New York City employs a troubling narrative that leans heavily on claims of widespread Islamophobia. However, the evidence he presents does little to support this assertion. His personal anecdotes about experiencing anti-Muslim sentiment primarily revolve around perceptions rather than concrete incidents. Mamdani’s most notable story involves his aunt—now a distant relative—who supposedly felt uneasy on the subway after the tragic events of 9/11. This account, which has stirred emotional responses, raises questions about its authenticity. Did this woman face harassment or hostility? No. Instead, she was merely responding to a societal shock that affected…

In an unexpected turn of events, President Donald Trump has reignited the specter of nuclear weapons testing, an act not witnessed in over three decades. The announcement came just before a crucial summit in Busan, South Korea, where Trump was set to meet with Chinese President Xi Jinping. This bold move appears to be a reactive measure, triggered by Russia’s recent forays into advanced nuclear weaponry, including novel undersea capabilities and missile testing. It sends a distinct message to not just Moscow but also to any nation contemplating its military ambitions: the era of American military preeminence is being reaffirmed…

In a striking moment during a live broadcast, News Nation’s Leland Vittert confronted Rep. Brad Schneider (D-IL) over the ongoing government shutdown, which has now stretched into its fourth week, setting a record for the longest shutdown in U.S. history.

The shutdown commenced on October 1, following a failure in the Senate to agree on a Continuing Resolution (CR) by the end of September. Since then, the political arena has…
