The Revolution Always Eats Its Own

How the Radicals Are Devouring the Democrat Party The images from the last week tell the story better than any poll or press release. On one side, Hakeem Jeffries beams as he congratulates the new DSA-backed members of New York’s congressional delegation — calling them public servants, union organizers, and community activists, as if they’re simply Democrats who took a different path. On the other side, the same radical energy that carried those candidates to victory turns inward almost immediately. Crowds chant “You’re next” at Jeffries himself. In San Francisco, longtime progressive stalwart Scott Wiener is surrounded, harassed, and physically intimidated…

Why Trump Must Veto the ROAD to Housing Act In my last column I warned that the Democratic Socialists of America have a coherent, long-term strategy for American housing: aggressive rent controls paired with tenant “protections” and subsidized “social housing” models designed to gradually displace private property owners and decommodify shelter. That Trojan horse has now breached the gates. In New York City, Mayor Zohran Mamdani just delivered on a signature campaign promise—a rent freeze on roughly one million rent-stabilized apartments. And Congress has handed him, and every other DSA-aligned operator across the country, the federal fuel to make the strategy…

The DSA’s Housing Trojan Horse

How a “Bipartisan” Bill Rewards Sanctuary Cities and Illegals President Ronald Reagan vetoed the Big Dig—the massive Boston highway project sold to Congress as a modest infrastructure fix. Lawmakers overrode him anyway. What followed was a textbook Washington story: initial cost estimates ballooned from a few billion into more than $14.6 billion (plus interest), with years of delays, leaks, design failures, graft, and federal taxpayers left holding the bag. Reagan was right then. History is about to rhyme. The 21st Century ROAD to Housing Act now sitting on the President’s desk follows the same script. Marketed as a commonsense answer to…

The Democrat Fracture

The Pieces Are Falling Right Into Republican Hands The Democrat Party is fracturing in real time, and the pieces are landing exactly where Republicans can pick them up. Last night in New York, Zohran Mamdani’s socialist machine knocked off two incumbents tied to House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries. One of the winners, Aber Kwas, is the child of illegal immigrants who won a state senate race. She has already blamed 9/11 on America’s “system of capitalism, racism, white supremacy, and Islamophobia.” Another Mamdani-backed candidate helped lead an organization whose stated goal includes the “eradication of Western civilization.” These are not fringe…

Federal Judge Strikes Down Voter Citizenship Checks

Privacy Protections or Roadblock to Election Integrity? On Monday, a federal judge in Washington, D.C., blocked key federal tools meant to help states verify whether people on the voter rolls are actually U.S. citizens. The ruling in League of Women Voters v. Department of Homeland Security vacates the 2025 updates to the Systematic Alien Verification for Entitlements—better known as SAVE. For those of us who’ve spent years watching how government systems either protect or undermine self-government, this isn’t just another administrative-law skirmish. It strikes at the heart of federalism, election integrity, and whether outdated privacy statutes from the Watergate era can…

The Art of the Hammer

Kharg as Catalyst, MOU as Pause, and the Path to Enforceable Peace Well, here we are. Just days after President Donald J. Trump’s pointed Truth Social signaling on Kharg Island—the credible threat to seize Iran’s primary oil export terminal and redirect those flows under American leverage—Iran moved. High-level approvals followed. The naval blockade held until the “transaction” advanced. Now we have the 14-point Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) signed, with a 60-day window for verification and deeper negotiations. The Strait of Hormuz prospects have brightened. Oil and gas prices have eased. Texas pump prices in competitive spots already sit in the low…

Pride Before the Fall

MLB's Selective War on Christian Conscience Just days ago, three San Francisco Giants pitchers—Landen Roupp, JT Brubaker, and Ryan Walker—took the mound during the team's Pride Night wearing the league-issued rainbow caps. They did not protest. They did not disrupt the game. They simply added a quiet inscription in white: “Gen 9:12-16.” That passage from the Book of Genesis carries the original meaning of the rainbow. God declares to Noah: “This is the sign of the covenant that I make between me and you and every living creature that is with you, for all future generations: I have set my bow…

The SpaceX 4,400

The Ordinary Workers Who Own the Future In the flood of viral posts and headlines after SpaceX’s blockbuster IPO, one image cuts through the noise: hardworking Americans—janitors, cooks, and welders—standing tall beside the rockets they helped build, now minted as millionaires. It’s not mere meme fodder. It’s cultural shorthand for a truth that unsettles much of the modern political and media class. SpaceX’s public debut, valued around $1.77 trillion, did far more than pad one man’s paper wealth. It created generational wealth for roughly 4,400 current and former employees—welders, cafeteria workers, technicians, launch site staff, engineers, and support personnel at every…

The Art of Hormuz

Kharg Threat Forces Iran Back to the Table Well, here we are — once again witnessing realpolitik deliver where prolonged diplomacy alone had stalled. Just hours after President Trump’s Truth Social declaration that the United States would hit Iran very hard and move toward seizing Kharg Island and controlling their oil and gas markets, he called off the immediate strikes. High-level Iranian leadership approved key points for a framework agreement. Documents are in “pretty final shape,” with a potential signing as soon as this weekend in Europe — Vice President JD Vance expected to attend. The naval blockade remains firmly in…

Trump’s Hammer on Kharg

Half-Measures No More: Kharg Island Falls, The Spice Flows, and America Secures the Future Well, here we are at last. President Donald J. Trump laid it out plainly on Truth Social today: The United States is hitting Iran very hard tonight. Their Navy, Air Force, radar, anti-aircraft systems, and much of their offensive capability—gone. And in the not-too-distant future, we will be taking Kharg Island and other critical oil infrastructure points, assuming total control of their oil and gas markets. Just as we have done with Venezuela, where the model is working out brilliantly for both nations and the broader cause…
