As NASA successfully sent American astronauts around the Moon on Artemis II, the first crewed lunar mission in over half a century, conservatives rightly celebrated a bold, forward-looking achievement that recaptured the pioneering spirit of Apollo. Yet this moment of national pride throws into stark relief a grotesque disparity in how Washington and the states squander taxpayer dollars. One venture pushed the boundaries of human ingenuity for the benefit of all mankind; the other is a state-level vanity project that's devoured more money than it could ever justify, all while begging for federal bailouts on a matter of purely local concern.
There’s something almost surreal about watching rockets launch into the heavens while everyday Americans feel increasingly grounded; burdened by rising costs, cultural instability, and a sense that the world closer to home is unraveling.
There was a time when NATO stood as one of the most formidable alliances in human history—a bulwark against tyranny, a symbol of Western unity, and a strategic deterrent that helped win the Cold War without firing a shot on European soil.
Rubio's message is clear: The United States will no longer serve as a luxury resort for the relatives and ideological cheerleaders of terrorist regimes that hate us. Afshar, the niece of the late Qasem Soleimani, the IRGC commander responsible for the deaths of hundreds of Americans, openly celebrated attacks on U.S. forces and branded America the “Great Satan” while living lavishly on American soil.
In a video circulating this week, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani outlined how state money for childcare would be directed first to "Black and brown" families. This isn't subtle policy nuance; it's explicit racial prioritization of public resources. As Libby Emmons rightly noted, it "seems discriminatory." It is discriminatory; and it exposes the deep flaw in the progressive vision of economic justice.
Gavin Newsom just dropped $19 million of California taxpayers' money on a mysterious New York fixer. While the Golden State crumbles under the weight of his failed promises, the governor isn't rolling up his sleeves to fix anything; he's buying something far more expensive: a better story.
President Donald Trump's recent attendance at Supreme Court oral arguments in the landmark birthright citizenship case, widely reported as the first time a sitting president has done so, has predictably triggered a predictable chorus of outrage from the left. Critics wasted no time labeling the move as "intimidation," a "strong-arm tactic," or an unprecedented assault on judicial independence.
As the countdown clock ticks toward liftoff from Kennedy Space Center this evening—targeting 6:24 p.m. EDT on April 1, 2026—Artemis II stands poised to send four astronauts on a roughly 10-day journey around the Moon and back. This mission marks the first time humans have ventured toward the lunar vicinity since Apollo 17 in December 1972, more than half a century ago.
The shocking video from Plano, Texas, captured at the East Plano Islamic Center, shows an investigator confronting a man openly with his very underage "wife." This is not some fringe anomaly or misunderstanding—child "marriage" and polygamy violate Texas and U.S. law outright, with no religious carve-outs permitted. Yet here it stands in plain view, a live demonstration of Sharia norms clashing with American sovereignty.
