The rise of transgender popularity in the U.S. is undeniable. The Internet is full of stories about people—mostly men transitioning to women—embracing their “true” selves. Some even take the ghastly surgical route, which, let’s be honest, isn’t for the faint of heart. Transgender individuals are making waves everywhere—on police forces, beauty pageant stages, and soon, maybe even as evening news anchors. Many might not win a “Miss Congeniality” award, but beauty is subjective, right? Enter Sarah McBride, a trailblazing transgender politician from Delaware who made history by snagging a seat in Congress. Naturally, this led to the inevitable bathroom debate. In a building where even finding a decent parking spot is a Herculean task, building a third bathroom might be a stretch. But here’s a simple fix: a sign that says “Occupied—Give Me a Minute” works wonders. Let’s not sweat the small stuff. Congress, after all, is supposed to represent  everyone . Transgender people are part of t...

Any hope of effectively controlling firearms in the United States is dead. While politicians can continue drafting restrictive gun laws, advancements in technology and pivotal court decisions have rendered such efforts largely meaningless. Today, anyone with access to a $200 3D printer can easily manufacture firearm components. These devices, guided by downloadable computer programs, can produce a perfect frame for a semi-automatic pistol. Since polymer-framed guns like Glocks require no traditional machining, they are particularly easy to replicate. The frame of a firearm is the regulated and serialized component under federal law, but a homemade frame bypasses these regulations entirely, allowing individuals to produce guns in secret. Importantly, 3D printers are common among hobbyists and are used to make a wide variety of items, further obscuring their potential use for firearm creation. In addition to these technological advances, legal developments have further dismantled gun ...

Imagine if the people of Gaza had cast aside hatred and chosen friendship with Israel instead. Picture the prosperity that could have emerged from cooperation and trade with one of the most advanced economies in the region.  Imagine a world without terrorism—where there are no hostages, and Gaza’s homes, apartments, and businesses remain intact, thriving instead of reduced to rubble. Think of hospitals serving as places of healing, not as shields for terrorist operations. Envision schools dedicated to educating children, nurturing hope, and building futures, rather than indoctrinating the next generation into cycles of violence. What a remarkable and vibrant Gaza it could have been—flourishing, peaceful, and free from destruction. Yet this vision was sabotaged by intolerant Islamic extremists, whose obsession with hatred and violence has only ensured suffering for generations. It’s a tragedy that could have been avoided, if only wisdom and humanity had prevailed.

The 2022 Supreme Court decision in New York State Rifle & Pistol Association, Inc. v. Bruen, 597 U.S. ___ (2022) , delivered a seismic blow to the anti-gun agenda, striking down an estimated 20,000 federal, state, and local gun laws that blatantly violated the Second Amendment. This landmark ruling reaffirmed an undeniable truth: the Second Amendment means what it says and says what it means—the right to keep and bear arms shall not be infringed. Yet, in open defiance of the Constitution and the Supreme Court, blue states have launched a full-scale rebellion. They’ve flooded the courts with resistance and doubled down by enacting even more unconstitutional gun laws. Let there be no doubt: the Bruen decision is a line in the sand, a call to restore the fundamental freedoms enshrined in our Bill of Rights. The Second Amendment is not negotiable.

The term “gun safety” has been hijacked by those advocating for gun control, overshadowing its true purpose: teaching the safe handling and use of firearms to prevent accidents. For children, gun safety isn’t a theoretical concept—it’s a critical life skill that could save lives. Children are naturally curious, especially about firearms. TV shows and movies often glamorize guns, making them seem exciting and mysterious. If a child encounters a firearm, particularly one left unattended, their curiosity can lead to tragedy. Many parents believe this isn’t a concern because they don’t keep firearms in their homes. However, children visit friends and neighbors where firearms may be present. In such situations, a lack of knowledge or training can become dangerous. The Problem with “Don’t Touch” Rules Standard advice like “stop, don’t touch, and call an adult” often falls short. Curiosity and excitement can easily override these instructions. Without a deeper understanding of firearm...

For decades, America has fought a losing battle against drugs. Despite billions spent and countless lives disrupted, the demand for narcotics only grows. Law enforcement seizes tons of illegal drugs every year, yet this represents only a small fraction of what flows freely to consumers. The drug war has failed, creating a trail of violence, corruption, and injustice in its wake. It’s time to abandon this broken approach and embrace the benefits of legalization. The Endless Cycle of Prohibition Prohibition has fueled an epidemic of overdoses, most notably from fentanyl, now the leading cause of drug-related deaths. The harder law enforcement works, the more resilient the drug trade becomes, adapting with deadly innovations. The resulting black market has empowered violent cartels and corrupted public officials, from law enforcement officers to court actors. History offers a clear lesson: Prohibition doesn’t work. Just as the end of alcohol prohibition dismantled bootlegging empire...

The Fourth Amendment to the United States Constitution is clear and unequivocal in its language: “The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized.” This amendment was designed to protect individuals from government overreach, ensuring that private property could not be searched or seized arbitrarily. Evidence obtained in violation of these protections is typically excluded from court under what is known as the exclusionary rule , first firmly established in Weeks v. United States, 232 U.S. 383 (1914) and later applied to the states in Mapp v. Ohio, 367 U.S. 643 (1961). However, over the past two centuries, the protections promised by the Fourth Amendment have been significantly eroded through numerous...

From January 20 onward, immigration policy will descend into organized chaos. The consequences of allowing tens of millions of illegal aliens to flood into our nation are undeniable and catastrophic. The Biden administration’s reckless policies have exacerbated this crisis, leaving America on the brink of collapse. The Overwhelming Burden of Illegal Aliens Let’s be clear: these individuals are illegal aliens , not “undocumented immigrants” or “economic refugees.” Most entered the country unlawfully, bringing with them immense challenges. Nearly all are unskilled, illiterate, and impoverished, creating a strain on every facet of American life. Illegal aliens arrive with untreated illnesses and injuries, taxing our already overburdened healthcare system. With no health insurance, their medical care is funded by taxpayers, diverting resources away from law-abiding Americans. Along with these burdens, they bring cultural norms that often conflict with American values, including higher ...
