hief Justice John Roberts urged Americans on Tuesday to stop personal attacks on judges, claiming such attacks were “dangerous” and a “problem.” The warning comes after the Supreme Court justice warned elected officials last year not to attack judges because the rhetoric could lead to actual violence against members of the judiciary. “Judges around the country work very hard to get it right, and if they don’t, their opinions are subject to criticism,” Roberts said at an event at Rice University’s Baker Institute for Public Policy. “But personally directed hostility is dangerous, and it’s got to stop."

President Donald Trump’s complaints about how the media has covered the war in Iran are “entirely justified,” according to an op-ed published by Mark Penn — a former pollster for President Bill Clinton — and former New York City Council president Andrew Stein in the Wall Street Journal. Penn and Stein argued the mainstream press appears hellbent on painting Operation Epic Fury negatively, no matter how the war is actually going. Their Monday article — titled “On Iran, Is Only Bad News Fit to Print?” — said coverage of the war has gone far beyond merely being critical and instead...

Victor Davis Hanson weighs in on how the war with Iran is going after two weeks for "The Daily Signal." Video Transcript Summary VICTOR DAVIS HANSON: We’re just completing the second week of the so-called Iran war — this effort of the United States to bomb the theocracy into submission so they will cancel their missile and nuclear programs and to champion the popular protests on the streets that have some potential to get rid of the regime itself. But it’s a very surreal war. I haven’t seen — I don’t think any of us have seen — anything like...

US President Donald Trump vowed Monday to “take” Cuba as the communist island plunged into darkness under a total power blackout linked to a crippling oil embargo imposed by Washington. After nearly seven decades defying the United States, Havana’s communist authorities are under massive pressure from a Trump administration determined to make history. “You know, all my life I’ve been hearing about the United States and Cuba. When will the United States do it?” Trump told reporters at the White House. “I do believe I’ll be…having the honor of taking Cuba,” Trump said. “Whether I free it, take it —...

European countries have pushed back against Donald Trump’s decision to ease some US sanctions on Russian oil amid Iran’s blockade of the strait of Hormuz, insisting the international community should maintain pressure on Moscow over its war against Ukraine. The UK has joined Germany, France and Norway in rejecting the move, with the foreign secretary, Yvette Cooper, decrying what she said was Russia and Iran’s attempt to “hijack the global economy”. Friedrich Merz, the German chancellor, described Washington’s move to temporarily waive sanctions on Russian oil stranded at sea as “wrong”, as the Trump administration attempted to counter a surge...

Meet One of the Media’s “Non-Criminals” Kele Christian Alves-Pereire, a criminal illegal alien from Brazil wanted in her home country for MURDER charges. Because she lacks a criminal history in the U.S. the media counts this as a non-criminal arrest. Nearly 70% of ICE arrests are of criminal illegal aliens with pending charges or convictions in the U.S. Those who committed crimes in foreign countries but lack a rap sheet in the U.S. are not counted in that statistic.

A controversial bill to significantly reduce state regulation of home schooling narrowly cleared the House of Representatives Wednesday. House Education Policy and Administration Committee Chairman Kristin Noble, R-Bedford, said the bill resulted from weeks of work behind the scenes with home-schooling parents and advocates from across the state. “This does advance core principles of parental rights, educational freedom, and limited government intervention in family decisions,” Noble said. State Rep. Muriel Hall, D-Bow, a retired educator, said the legislation would undo 30 years of collaboration to ensure students in home education have the same opportunities to thrive as those in public...

SNIP Spokespeople for Bill Clinton, George W. Bush, Barack Obama and Joe Biden all said the leaders have not spoken to Trump about the conflict, let alone told him they wish they would have started a war against Tehran or killed Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. Trump first dropped the chatty bombshell Monday at a press event during a lunch for board members of the Kennedy Center. “I’ve spoken to a certain president ... a past president, former president. He said: ‘I wish I did it. I wish I did.’ ” Trump said. Trump repeated the claim later during another White...

OTTAWA (LifeSiteNews) — The Conservative Party of Canada (CPC) introduced a “Stand Your Ground” private members’ bill that would protect Canadians from being prosecuted if they use lethal force to defend their home against invaders.

When you lie, cheat, and exploit programs meant to help others, accountability doesn’t stop at sentencing. It follows you.
