Sen. Elissa Slotkin (D-Mich.) is facing an ethics complaint filed to the United States Senate over comments she made earlier this month that many characterized as a "threat" to conservatives who are thinking about working for the Trump administration. During an Oct. 13 University of Chicago event, Slotkin drew criticism after a clip went viral showing her saying she wants to pursue "signature cases" against people who "enabled" President Donald Trump and push a "deterrence message" for young people. "I want young people coming out of school to say, 'Should I go work for the Trump administration? Like, that sounds...

Kamala Harris insists she hasn't decided whether she's running for president in 2028, but she accidentally gave the game away. Obviously, nobody in the Democrat Party is exactly begging her to jump in. The establishment has been pushing back hard on the idea of a third Kamala campaign. Former allies and donors grumble that she squandered her first year out of office, and they can't come up with a single reason voters should take another look at her. Even her husband, Doug Emhoff, reportedly isn't thrilled about her running again. You'd think all that would give her pause. Instead, Kamala...

Mike Rogers and his Democratic opponent, Abdul El-Sayed, tore into each other at their second Michigan Senate debate Wednesday evening.

LeBron James is officially back in the crosshairs of President Donald Trump over his performative antics during the national anthem during his debut with the Philadelphia 76ers this week. James, who has turned into something of a golf addict, was spotted taking some practice swings in his new 76ers gear as the rest of the team stood respecting the anthem during Tuesday's game against the defending NBA champions. "While listening to our National Anthem, LeBron James disrespects our Country! I said right from the beginning that he’s no good, a TOTAL DISGRACE. LeBron James should apologize to all of those...

The recording, obtained by The Cougar Chronicle, features Venna Anne and Ashton Hirschi, both identified as POPAI leaders, speaking during a meeting earlier this month. During a conversation about capitalism, someone told Anne that “You just can’t get away from capitalism.” Anne replied, “No, unless we kill everybody.” Hirschi responded that they only needed to kill “some” people and initially settled on “500.” Anne then said, “You also have to kill their children and their [line of succession].” Hirschi agreed, stating, “We need to get the politicians.” When asked whether ICE agents could integrate back into society, Hirschi said, “If...

Lindsey Graham was routinely hiring male sex workers while handling extremely sensitive national security material. Including a minor, whose story is detailed here for the first time. Meanwhile, his sister Darline runs on his name while campaigning on anti-LGBT rhetoric.

What replaces a nation that apologizes for existing? France is burning again. This isn’t new, as France has been stacking it for decades. Civilizations rarely die when the barbarians arrive at the gate. They die when the gatekeepers forget what the gate is for. In his televised address, French President Macron asked in anguish, “How can French people do this to France?” The question assumes a shared heritage and commitment among “French” people. It implies a clear and precise answer to a prior question: Who is French, and why does it matter? The reality is that France long ago lost...

This is the problem with mixing religion with politics, and it’s the problem I’ve always had with Turning Point USA. While I still think Charlie Kirk was sincere in his Christian beliefs, I think the way he approached politics was extremely flawed. For example, Kirk once platformed an open, practicing homosexual who called himself a “gay Christian” while living openly in rebellion against God. While sitting on stage with him, Charlie Kirk never corrected him. In fact, he affirmed him. And while I don’t think it’s wrong to stand with non-Christians or people of other religions on certain shared political...

On Veterans Day 2025, I went on a road trip through central Indiana to visit the graves of several veterans of the American Revolutionary War. The sites I found -- and the stories behind them -- completely amazed me. There's so much hidden history tucked away in small roadside cemeteries across the country. Come along for this unforgettable Revolutionary War road trip! Note: for those concerned about the flag that was knocked over- I straightened up the gravesites prior to leaving, as I always do. I found George Washington's Drummer & other Revolutionary War Graves | Journey With Murphy |...

Feds busted Los Angeles medical fraudsters accused of stealing $2 billion Thursday, cuffing white-collar thieves for unneeded surgeries, hunting the homeless for rehabs and billing the government for phony hospice care. Department of Justice officials charged 15 defendants in all, including medical professionals, for making fraudulent claims to government and private health care programs – including $1.6 billion sham rehab case, the largest of its type ever. Federal SWAT teams sought their suspects in a series of predawn raids, targeting high-class criminals such as Dr. Hany Malek, 61, an allegedly armed-and-dangerous chiropractor accused of keeping an arsenal in his $2...

Only authorised union protests will be allowed in French towns and cities on Saturday, President Emmanuel Macron has said, after demonstrations across the country turned violent last weekend. Speaking as some cities including Lyon and Nice imposed complete bans, Macron said "illegitimate" protests would not be allowed but unions would be offered alternative routes so that businesses could be protected. Big demonstrations against the high cost of living and school conditions were overshadowed last Saturday by riots and looting that saw business and historic buildings destroyed. Interior Minister Jean-Didier Berger said police deployments would be increased by 20% compared to...

In a write-up of Wednesday night’s debate between Mike Rogers and Abdulrahman Mohamed El-Sayed (aka Abdul-El-Sayed), the far-left New York Times referred to El-Sayed as a doctor a whopping 42 — 42! — times. Look for yourself. So to be clear, El-Sayed does not hold a license to practice medicine. He holds a Doctor of Medicine from Columbia University and a Doctor of Philosophy from the University of Oxford. But he did not complete his residency after graduating from medical school. He is a doctor only by way of an academic degree. Still…DR. EL-SAYED a whopping 42 freaken times. So,...
