An OB-GYN who uses “she/her” pronouns repeatedly sidestepped a question about whether men can get pregnant during a congressional hearing on abortion pills. Dr. Nisha Verma, a Democratic witness and senior advisor to Physicians for Reproductive Health, acknowledged that she takes care of many pregnant women, but was coy about whether men can pull off that feat as well. *** “I hesitated there because I wasn’t sure where the conversation was going or what the goal was. I mean, I do take care of patients with different identities. I take care of many women,” she told Hawley, skirting around the...

A beautiful woman scorned by a former lover, a hot-headed husband intent on defending his wife's honor, and a Deputy U.S. Marshal assigned to protect a Supreme Court Justice came together in an explosive confrontation on August 14, 1889, in the Lathrop, California, railway station in the San Joaquin Valley. The result was a dead husband, an insane wife, and a landmark Supreme Court decision that substantially expanded the powers of the executive branch and affirmed the authority for U. S. Marshals and their Deputies to use force in the performance of their lawful duties.

U.S. President Donald Trump told Reuters that Ukraine - not Russia - is holding up a potential peace deal, rhetoric that stands in marked contrast to that of European allies, who have consistently argued Moscow has little interest in ending its war in Ukraine. In an exclusive interview in the Oval Office on Wednesday, Trump said Russian President Vladimir Putin is ready to wrap up his nearly four-year-old invasion of Ukraine. Zelenskiy, the U.S. president said, was more reticent. "I think he's ready to make a deal," Trump said of the Russian president. "I think Ukraine is less ready to...

From Iraq to Minneapolis, false moral certainties have replaced facts, turning tragedy into pretext and unrest into strategy—fake wars waged at home with real consequences. When President George W. Bush ordered the invasion of Iraq in March 2003, the justification was presented as unambiguous. Saddam Hussein, Americans were told, possessed weapons of mass destruction that posed an imminent threat. The claim proved false. By 2004, the United States was forced to concede that no such weapons existed, and the central pretext for war collapsed. At the time, much of the left opposed the invasion—and with hindsight, they were right to...

Message received from Iran. Masih, tell the world we have not given up. We cannot come to the streets because armed forces are at every corner. If they see more than two people together, they start shooting. People are too scared to even leave their homes. Tell Trump we are trapped inside, waiting for them to be pushed back so we can return to the streets. We will not retreat, even if we are all killed. We have nothing left to lose. 💔✌🏻

President Trump may very well have ended twenty-six years of communist dictatorship in Venezuela. By cutting off Venezuelan oil and economic relief to Cuba, there’s a chance that sixty-seven years of communist dictatorship will soon come to an end in Castro’s Caribbean prison, too. Right now Iran’s Islamic dictatorship is teetering and showing signs of potential collapse — forty-seven years after Jimmy Carter’s foreign policy “boys” allowed theocratic tyrants to take the strategically pivotal country before also taking fifty-two Americans hostage for four hundred and forty-four days. Finally, the European Union now realizes that President Trump is serious about keeping...
