One of Sargon II's (r. 721–706 BCE) many acts -- besides conquering Samaria and taking the ten northern tribes of Israel into exile, of course -- was the establishment of a brand-new capital for the Assyrian Empire, Dur-Sharrukin. Before the purpose-built city was completed, however, Sargon fell in battle, and his son, Sennacherib, moved the capital instead to Nineveh, leaving the unfinished Dur-Sharrukin to be buried by history.

This week, Donald Trump won Time Magazine’s vaunted “person of the year” for the second time in the last decade. The results weren’t even close. If this were a Hall of Fame vote for a famous athlete, the President-elect would have been unanimous. After having been unceremoniously ousted from the White House in the first presidential coup in history, the 47th President mounted the most improbable comeback, in which he overcame a mountain of opposition – from relentless media bias, to all-out lawfare in the courts, to two failed assassination attempts on his life. Having succeeded against all odds,...

We can’t be watching the same stuff if that’s what you are doing," Smith told...

A California sheriff has defied an administrative board’s attempt to turn her county into a “super sanctuary” for people illegally inside the United States. The 3-1 Tuesday vote from the San Diego County Board of Supervisors restricts assistance to federal immigration authorities. “Immigration enforcement is a federal responsibility, and our county will not be a tool for policies that hurt our residents,” Chairwoman Nora Vargas said, according to KNSD. The policy is “designed to ensure local resources are focused on addressing the County’s most urgent needs, while protecting families and promoting community trust,” according to Vargas.

Failed Democrat vice presidential candidate Tim Walz said he thought it was a “real flex” to possibly be the “least wealthy person” to ever be on the ticket, and wondered “how in the world did we lose to a billionaire?” The Minnesota governor marveled at how Americans once again chose President-elect Donald Trump to lead the country in a Thursday interview with Minnesota Public Radio. “I thought it was a real flex when the Wall Street Journal pointed out that I might have been the least wealthy person to ever run for vice president,” Walz, Vice President Kamala Harris’s running...

(Dec. 15, 2024) — On Saturday’s edition of “Life, Liberty & Levin,” host Mark Levin’s opening monologue immediately focused on immigration and “national identity,” quoting from works by political scientist and Pres. Jimmy Carter adviser Samuel P. Huntington and historian and JFK presidential adviser Arthur M. Schlesinger, Jr. “In a variety of ways,” Huntington wrote in “Who Are We?: The Challenges to America’s National Identity (2005),” Levin quoted, “the American establishment, governmental and private, has become increasingly divorced from the American people,” causing those in power to morph into “an unrepresentative democracy” by opposing the will of those who placed...
