In February 2021, the Italian Navy’s aircraft carrier Cavour will begin qualification with the Lockheed Martin F-35B Lightning II, the short takeoff and vertical landing (STOVL) of the Joint Strike Fighter aircraft. The carrier recently completed its maintenance and modernization efforts required to accommodate and operate the F-35B. The carrier, the flagship of the Marina Militare (Italian Navy) will reach Naval Station Norfolk in mid-February to start the F-35B qualification, which is expected to take around six weeks.

Upon taking office, Biden signed nine out of 17 promised Executive Orders and then rested from his labors. President Trump also started his presidency with some executive orders. It's interesting to compare Trump's first executive orders with Biden's and to contemplate what demographics the different presidents were benefiting with those orders.Some of Trump's first 17 E.O.s are purely ministerial, but here are the substantive ones that he issued between his inauguration and mid-March. After each, I've noted the probable beneficiaries of the E.O.:EO 13765: Minimizing the Economic Burden of the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act Pending Repeal — As...

Even in a one-party state like California, stupidity, arrogance, and incompetence can undo the political career of a governor who seemed to have all the ingredients for a run at the White House. Not too long ago, Gavin Newsom was considered as a serious presidential contender in 2024 and beyond for Democrats: movie star handsome, able to tap the largest pool of deep-pocketed Democrat donors, and pals with the Big Tech and Hollywood titans that dominate the nation's flow of information. But after a series of blunders revealing the aforementioned stupidity, arrogance, and incompetence, Newsom is fighting for his political...

If you want to understand the present moment, especially how similar Wokeness seems to Mao's Cultural Revolution, you have to understand the Italian communist Antonio Gramsci. Gramsci wrote a series of essays and books while imprisoned by the Italian fascists in the 1920s and 1930s that are referred to as his Prison Notebooks. These are the birthplace of Cultural Marxism, which James Lindsay argues has evolved into "Identity Marxism" since. Once you understand Gramsci, you can easily understand what is going on with our society at present and understand more clearly than ever why it must be resisted. Though he...

Representative Maxine Waters (D-CA) warned on MSNBC’s “The Sunday Show with Jonathan Capehart” that former President Donald Trump would attempt “to take over legislatures, little towns and cities.” Therefore, she said he must be convicted in his impeachment trial to “take away his power.” Waters said, “I do believe he sent all of these domestic terrorists to the Capitol to take over the Capitol, and that includes not only the Proud Boys but the Oath Keepers, the QAnon, and white supremacists. These people have been aligned with him. One of the things I hope that will be looked at as...

Giuliani's lawyer, Robert Costello, did not immediately respond to a request for comment. A group of prominent attorneys last week asked New York’s judiciary...

On Friday’s broadcast of HBO’s “Real Time,” host Bill Maher suggested racism in America is exaggerated by “radicals,” such as members of the Marxist political organization Black Lives Matter. “Is the picture of America that’s presented by the radicals, I would say — Black Lives Matter, some of them, the anti-racists — of America 2021, is it an accurate picture? Because sometimes I’m like, ‘Are they talking about 2021?'” asked Maher on his show, according to a report by Daily Beast.

WASHINGTON, Thursday, Jan. 24. Many Northwestern Republicans are disposed to accept the greater portion of Senator DOUGLAS' last new Compromise. They will even swallow his refined and somewhat modified Popular Sovereignty. The proposition to extend the Presidential term to six years, making the President ineligible to re-election, and electing him by a direct popular vote, meets much favor. Mr. DOUGLAS will press his resolutions to a consideration by the Senate at the earliest moment, but it is exceedingly doubtful if they can be passed before the 4th of March. Another new project among Northern and Border State men is that...

A new report from Axios indicates trust in traditional media sources has hit an all-time low with fewer than half of all Americans confident in the information they are receiving. Using information from Edelman’s annual trust barometer, the report notes that trust in traditional media has plummeted even since 2020.
