  • Fact check: Debunking Carlson’s claims on Israel. Claims on Netanyahu’s family, the USS “Liberty” and Christian populations in Qatar are contradicted by historical and official records

    Controversial conservative political commentator and former Fox News host Tucker Carlson made several false statements during his Feb. 18 interview with U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee. He claimed that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s family did not speak Hebrew and had no historical ties to the region. This is incorrect: the leader’s paternal grandfather, Nathan Mileikowsky, was a Zionist rabbi who delivered sermons in Hebrew—uncommon at the time—and ensured that his family spoke the language at home. His father, Benzion Netanyahu, born in Warsaw, was a historian of medieval Jewish history who spoke Hebrew fluently, taught Hebrew literature and...

    American Greatness ^ | 24 Feb, 2026 | Victor Davis Hanson
    Elite fashions harden into dogma, dissent becomes taboo, institutions fall in line—and only when reality intrudes does yesterday’s madness begin its overdue collapse. How do destructive ideas and bouts of collective madness so quickly become policy, law, and the status quo? After all, most have little public support—and are not Western nations supposedly rationally governed? There is usually a multi-step process on the road to these self-destructive fits of society-wide insanity. The suicidal impulse so often begins with left-leaning researchers in elite universities (i.e., the tenured in search of a novel, grant-getting theory). They begin insisting that a new existential...

    The Crime Prevention Research Center (CPRC), created by John Lott, has published research on the ratio of active shooting attacks by people who are mentally confused about their gender identity, commonly referred to as “transgender.” In 2024, according to the CRPC research, transgender individuals were 12 times as likely to commit an active shooting attack compared to the population as a whole. In 2024, Politifact published an article claiming that mass shootings by transgender people is a small number of all mass shootings. As the CPRC research points out, this does not tell us if people who identify as transgender...

    In the warped universe of today’s Social Justice Warriors, Trump is Hitler. Racism is baked into our DNA and lurking around every corner, Nazis are hiding under every bed, white supremacists run the show in our major institutions, and any inconvenient facts that punch holes in this nonsense just prove how sneaky and deep-rooted the evil really is. The more they scream it from the rooftops, the more it solidifies as “truth” in their echo chambers. Their sealed-off media bubble keeps the illusion alive, sucking believers into an endless loop where everything gets twisted to fit the narrative, no matter...

    TAPALPA, Mexico (AP) — A day after the Mexican army killed the country’s most powerful drug lord, the picturesque town where it happened was a study in contrasts. Children whose classes had been suspended by the outbreak of violence played in cobblestone streets and tourist shops were open on Tapalpa’s main plaza Monday. But gunshots also rang out, and just outside the town a dead man lay on the road next to a Jeep sprayed with bullets. Meanwhile, heavily armed Mexican security forces kept up their battle with cartel gunmen following the killing that sparked a surge in violence and...

    A A Reset "We have not ceased to pray for you and to ask that you may be filled with the knowledge of His will in all spiritual wisdom and understanding" (Col. 1:9). Godly living results from being controlled by the principles of God’s Word. Paul's prayer for the Philippians (Phil. 1:9-11) is closely paralleled by his prayer for the Colossians (Col. 1:9-12). Both epistles were written from the same Roman prison at about the same time in Paul's life. Both prayers focus on godly living, but each approaches it from a slightly different perspective. The Philippians were gracious people...
