The Democratic Party has developed a four-pronged strategy to counter the Trump administration, focusing on litigation, legislation, oversight, and mobilizing their base through effective communication. They have already started implementing this approach, with litigation being a key component. Congressional Democrats are collaborating with party m…

How do you eat a leviathan? One bite at a time. That’s the approach the Trump administration and Elon Musk are taking in their goal to cut the federal budget by $2 trillion. A brilliant first step was targeting the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID), the agency responsible for foreign aid. Though USAID accounts for only 1% of the mas…

The speed with which the Trump administration has enacted policy has left the Democratic Party in disarray. In the first two weeks of his presidency, he has taken a remarkable amount of executive action and signed a major immigration bill that passed with Democratic votes in both chambers. The Trump administration is moving so quickly that Democrat…

The first 10 amendments to the U.S. Constitution, known as the Bill of Rights, were ratified in 1791, three years after the Constitution itself. Since then, we’ve spent over 200 years debating what these rights truly mean. Questions like, “Does the First Amendment protect pornography?” or “Does the Second Amendment cover automatic firearms?” and ot…

President Trump is sending a clear message to the world: the American border is closed. Anyone who attempts to enter the U.S. illegally will be arrested and deported. The policy of arresting and deporting illegal immigrants is not new. The Obama administration deported more people than any other president in U.S. history, and President Biden also s…

It’s surprising that Democrats seem so shocked by President Trump’s decision to pardon and commute the sentences of individuals convicted for their involvement in the January 6, 2021, Capitol riot. He made this commitment repeatedly during the 2024 campaign. In fact, January 6 was a central focus of Joe Biden’s campaign when he was the nominee, and…

President Biden leaves office with the lowest approval rating of any one-term president in U.S. history, and his presidency is viewed as a failure by a majority of Americans. Over the past four years, we have seen rising crime, crippling inflation, a surge in illegal immigration, and a world more unstable than at any time since the Cold War. In con…

Vivek Ramaswamy faced significant criticism following a post on X, where he claimed that American culture is mediocre. This statement came amid the controversy surrounding H-1B visas and what was being described as a "MAGA civil war." Ramaswamy argued that the mediocrity of American culture was the reason top tech companies in the United States nee…

Just hours before violent winds fueled the flames that destroyed neighborhoods and homes, including those of many Hollywood celebrities, the city hosted the 82nd Annual Golden Globe Awards, with comedian Nikki Glaser as the host. A clip from the ceremony has gone viral, in which Glaser delivers a joke midway through the event. After sharing a tally…

When people say "Make America Great Again", it suggests that America was once greater than it is today—and in many cases, that is true. America once boasted the best cities in the world, with stunning skylines, top-tier infrastructure, and skilled leaders who knew how to manage urban environments. These leaders understood the importance of planning…

Everyone is talking about the civil war within the MAGA movement over H-1B work visas. It’s a battle between Old MAGA and New MAGA. Old MAGA refers to those who have supported President Trump and the America First agenda since his 2016 campaign. These are working-class Americans who helped him win the Rust Belt with promises to stop the outsourcing…

After the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks on the United States, a confidential CIA brief was leaked to CBS News. It was the CIA's daily brief to the President for August 6, 2001, just 36 days before the attacks. This document contained extremely sensitive, classified information, and its leak put the Bush administration on the defensive. Taki…

During the 2016 election, when Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton were the two major party nominees, the Clinton campaign hired a commercial research firm to conduct opposition research on Trump. The firm, Fusion GPS, based in Washington, D.C., was responsible for creating the political opposition report known as the Steele Dossier. Nellie Ohr, a Rus…

The public first became aware of the Steele Dossier when Donald Trump was President-Elect for the first time. Initially presented as an intelligence report, it was later revealed to be political opposition research. The dossier contained scandalous and salacious allegations about President-Elect Trump, supposedly occurring during his time in Russia…

The power to pardon is one of the most delicate authorities granted to the President of the United States, as it lies solely within the discretion of the executive branch. There is no judicial or congressional oversight, leaving room for potential abuse of this power. Throughout history, many presidents have issued controversial pardons, but what P…

Sally Yates served as Deputy Attorney General during the final term of the Obama administration. She was second-in-command at the Department of Justice (DOJ) during the 2016 election when both major party candidates were under investigation by the FBI’s counterintelligence division. Earlier this week, Yates appeared as a guest on The Daily Show wit…

During the campaign, Democrats frequently used the phrase "No one is above the law" while applying legal pressure to President Trump. This was meant to emphasize that even a billionaire former president could face prosecution. When Hunter Biden, the son of President Biden, was indicted by the Justice Department under his father's administration, De…

The religious strife in Europe contributed greatly to the founding of the United States of America. The Puritans that laid the foundations of what would become the United States by establishing the Plymouth colony were a sectarian religious group from England that believed the Church of England had not made a full cut from the Catholic Church, and …

The folklore surrounding Thanksgiving has led many people to develop a skewed understanding of the origins of the United States. In elementary school, we are taught that the first settlers came from England on a ship called the Mayflower, and that they were Puritans who founded the first colony in New England. While it's true that a group of Englis…

When Matt Gaetz abruptly removed himself from consideration for President-elect Trump's Attorney General position, it was as surprising as his initial nomination. Despite facing accusations of sexual misconduct and the looming release of a potentially damning ethics report from the House of Representatives, Gaetz seemed unfazed. The same could be s…

It is rare for President-elect Trump to admit to making mistakes. However, in a recent interview with Fox & Friends during the campaign, he acknowledged not one, but two mistakes from his first term. The first was his selection of Jeff Sessions as Attorney General, and the second was replacing him with Bill Barr. Trump, reflecting on those decision…

As President Trump begins assembling his team for his return to the White House, he is already delivering on a promise to place Elon Musk in charge of improving government efficiency and tackling waste, fraud, and abuse. This new initiative will also involve Vivek Ramaswamy, and possibility Ron Paul. Musk believes he can cut $2 trillion from the fe…

After the Democratic Party suffered a crushing defeat in the recent elections, Senator Bernie Sanders is once again calling out the party for abandoning working-class Americans. This criticism is nothing new for Sanders, who has long argued that the party is out of touch with the needs of ordinary people. His critiques echo the themes of the progre…

As pundits analyze the election results and conduct post-mortems on the Harris campaign and the Democratic Party, few are drawing the right conclusions. Many are still in shock—not just because Donald Trump won, but because of the way he won. Now that the blame game has begun, no one wants to take responsibility. However, the media bears a signific…

The political realignment unfolding in the United States is nothing short of astonishing. The Democratic Party, once the champion of the working class, has increasingly become the party of college-educated elites, big business, and the military establishment. It is also the party of smug, overpaid celebrities who, though they may come from the work…

When Barack Obama won the presidency in 2008, it felt like a breath of fresh air for many Americans. We had just endured eight challenging years, starting with the contentious election that brought George W. Bush to power. Just nine months into his administration, a terrorist attack on U.S. soil claimed the lives of nearly 3,000 Americans, briefly …

The immigration crisis is one of the most pressing issues in the upcoming election for several reasons. Firstly, many migrants are poor and rely on government resources, which can strain the resources available to Americans and burden local municipalities. Additionally, crime is a significant concern. Recently revised FBI statistics indicate a 4.5 …

Kamala Harris's plan to lower food prices has gained attention in the final days of the election, with numerous interviews and town hall events addressing the issue. She attributes the high cost of groceries to corporate price gouging and promises to take federal action to control food prices. However, Harris has not specified which corporations sh…

From the moment Donald Trump descended the escalator in Trump Tower to announce his candidacy for president as a Republican, a concerted effort to defame him in the media began. Since that moment, the country has been divided into two factions: those who believe the media's portrayal of Trump and those who do not. Over the past decade, many individ…

Kamala Harris recently gave an interview with Fox News’ Bret Baier, during which she was asked about her slogan, "turn the page." Baier reminded her that she is the current Vice President and that she and Biden have been in charge for the past three and a half years, questioning what exactly she intends to turn the page from. She responded, "First …

With less than 20 days until Election Day, Kamala Harris is bringing out her big guns in key swing states. The top two heavyweights in her arsenal are former Democratic Presidents Barack Obama and Bill Clinton. In recent events over the weekend, they have criticized past Republican administrations while emphasizing the successes of their own presid…

When Barack Obama first ran for president in 2008, the country was in crisis. We were engaged in multiple wars, and the economy was in recession. Obama made many promises during that campaign, all of which can be summed up in one word: "change." Change was at the heart of the movement he was leading, particularly in terms of economic reform. He dre…

In March 2008, as investment banks began to collapse, Democrats were in the midst of selecting their new party leader. The primary featured two candidates: Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama. Clinton, the wife of former President Bill Clinton, represented the past, while Obama emerged as a fresh newcomer advocating for "change." He criticized the Bil…

The devastation left in the wake of Hurricane Helene is beyond words. Entire towns have been swept away, thousands of Americans have been displaced, and hundreds have lost their lives. The hardest-hit areas are in southern Appalachia, including Georgia, the Carolinas, and Tennessee. Many residents remain without power, and washed-out roads have lef…

A key element of Kamala Harris's economic plan is her proposed $25,000 tax credit for down payment assistance for first-time home buyers. In a recent interview on the "All the Smoke" podcast, she emphasized that the goal of the plan is to help these buyers get their foot in the door. Matt Barnes, a former NBA player and podcast host, remarked, "The…

Before the housing bubble burst in 2007, a few people recognized the signs and tried to warn the nation. Unfortunately, they were ridiculed as "Chicken Littles" by those reveling in the prosperity. The economy was booming, stock markets were hitting record highs, and it was largely coming from the housing market. Few wanted to believe that a bubble…

The Bible states that the love of money is the root of all kinds of evil, and I’ve observed that those who are obsessed with money are capable of almost anything. In Shakespeare’s play "The Merchant of Venice," the character Shylock exemplifies this love for money; he profits by lending to desperate neighbors at exorbitant interest rates. This prac…

Rachel and Garrett, a young married couple, were invited to a star-studded town hall event with Kamala Harris, hosted by Oprah Winfrey.

When George W. Bush was sworn in as President in 2001, his first major initiative was a massive tax cut. The economy had been thriving during the final years of the Clinton administration, and the government was running surpluses. Bush argued that the surplus was the people’s money and promised to return it through tax cuts. However, just a few mon…

After the 2008 financial crisis and Great Recession, there was widespread desire for a rapid recovery. Little attention was paid to learning from the crash or holding anyone accountable; the focus was solely on returning to normal as quickly as possible. However, some economists cautioned that a swift recovery would merely be 'kicking the can down …

During the George W. Bush administration, Dick Cheney was often seen as a villain by many Democrats. As Vice President, Cheney was widely believed to be the real power behind the throne. Democrats blamed him for the invasion of Iraq, for policies such as rendition and waterboarding, and for various other humanitarian concerns. They accused Cheney a…

The Russians have been accused of attempting to influence American voters once again, marking the third consecutive election with such allegations.

The California State Legislature has passed a bill to include illegal immigrants in a new program aimed at helping Californians become homeowners. The program, called the "California Dream for All," offers up to $150,000 in down payment assistance for those who qualify. If Governor Newsom signs the bill into law, illegal status will not disqualify …

Vice President Kamala Harris finally gave an interview after being the Democratic nominee for president for over a month. CNN's Dana Bash conducted the interview, of both Harris and her vice-presidential pick, Tim Walz. The interview was brief and predictively lacking substantial pushback or follow-up questions from Bash, contrasting sharply with h…

This year’s presidential election is the first in half a century without a Bush, Clinton, Obama, or Biden on the ticket for either major party. This could mark the end of a long political dynasty. With 70% of Americans believing the country is on the wrong track, this is a change election. Kamala Harris is positioning herself as the change candidat…

There was a lot of excitement about the final night of the DNC as rumors circulated about a possible special guest appearance. Don Lemon went viral with his speculation that it could be Beyoncé or Taylor Swift. Given the array of celebrities who had already appeared on previous nights, this wasn’t entirely far-fetched. Lemon also suggested that the…

When Joe Biden and Kamala Harris first came into office, their first major piece of legislation was the American Rescue Plan, a $1.9 trillion stimulus bill.

When Governor Walz was first introduced to us as Kamala Harris's running mate a few weeks ago, we were given an impressive overview of his career.

Kamala Harris hasn't discussed much about her policy positions since becoming the presumptive Democratic Party nominee, and many strategists suggest this is intentional. She aims to generate excitement around her candidacy before committing to potentially controversial policies or ones that may diverge from her previous positions. However, this pas…

Vice President Kamala Harris is running for president, but her campaign is anything but traditional. It's been three weeks since President Biden withdrew from the race, and the party rallied around Harris.
