There is a cancer in America’s military ranks, and it must be expunged before it’s too late. That cancer lies in uniformed service members’ widespread rejection of the uniquely American concept of civilian control of the military and disregard for the absolute necessity that America’s military officers remain apolitical in the face of the constitutional will of the electorate. Recent events reveal this cancer,... [Snip] I have heard from some anti-Trump officers that it is acceptable for them to challenge Trump and be “disloyal” to him on political matters... [Snip] The trends we are seeing feel dangerously close to an embrace of 1970s South American-style military juntas.

When President Donald Trump honored the Christian celebration of Holy Week before Easter, he took a striking stand against the spiritual atrophy consuming much of Western civilization. Meanwhile, the United Kingdom’s leaders celebrated a pagan holiday instead of Palm Sunday. [Snip] But in the United Kingdom, King Charles III--the head of the Church of England, and “defender of the faith”--apparently failed to even issue a statement for Holy Week or Palm Sunday, according to a search of his social media pages... [Snip] While King Charles III neglected Christianity, Trump asked for God to pour out the blessings of divine providence upon America.

President Donald Trump issued a Palm Sunday message at the start of Holy Week renewing his administration's promise "to defend the Christian faith in our schools, military, workplaces, hospitals, and halls of government."

"This week, we pray for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit upon our beloved Nation. ...that America will remain a beacon of faith, hope, and freedom for the entire world, and we pray to achieve a future that reflects the truth, beauty, and goodness of Christ’s eternal kingdom in Heaven."

President Donald Trump signed a memorandum authorizing a “military mission for sealing the southern border of the United States and repelling invasions,” giving the U.S. military the ability to occupy public land along the border in order to secure it. [Snip] Invoking a day-one proclamation from Trump declaring a national emergency at the southern border, the memo says the Secretary of the Interior must “provide for” the Defense Department’s “utilization of public lands,” specifically including “portions of the Roosevelt Reservation”--a strip of land that reaches from California to Texas designated for border security in 1907. The directive excludes Federal Indian Reservations.

Prince Harry’s security woes appear to be taking an emotional toll on the royal. As the legal battle over his right to police protection in the U.K. intensifies, Harry’s concerns about his safety have been brought to the forefront. [Snip] While Harry fought for security to protect his family in the U.K., his wife enjoyed a night out in New York City. The Duchess of Sussex arrived in the Big Apple in a four-vehicle motorcade. An unmarked NYPD car accompanied Markle on her 1.5-mile journey, as she grabbed dinner at the Polo Bar in Midtown Manhattan with friends before heading to the Broadway production of "Gypsy"...

Donald Trump is playing the long game with tariffs. His goal is to restore our industrial base by revolutionizing the way the United States trades with the rest of the world. We no longer make antibiotics, and import much of our steel, computer chips, and cars. We must even import titanium sponge--a key component for weapons systems--from producers in China, Russia, and Kazakhstan. [Snip] ...that’s what “liberation day” is all about. Do we see ourselves as slaves to distant masters who control our wealth and our destiny? Or as free men and women in charge of our own destiny? Freedom always has a cost. And it’s worth it.

Christian nationalism” is the bad penny that keeps turning up in media propaganda. It’s an obvious trope that often conflates fascism with a very natural love of homeland. ...many have felt like displaced persons adrift in a sea of wokeness. [Snip] Christian nationalism, properly interpreted, is about a renewed ache for the profound sense of belonging Americans once had in America, including the longing for Christian values of forgiveness and redemption and real love--all of which are woven into America’s heritage and founding. [Snip] ...People yearn for freedom because we know in our hearts that it is our birthright, and that right is inalienable.

President Donald Trump signed an executive order on Wednesday that aims to strengthen America’s depleted shipbuilding industry and restore U.S. maritime dominance throughout the world. “The commercial shipbuilding capacity and maritime workforce of the United States has been weakened by decades of Government neglect, leading to the decline of a once strong industrial base while simultaneously empowering our adversaries and eroding United States national security,” the president wrote. “It is the policy of the United States to revitalize and rebuild domestic maritime industries and workforce to promote national security and economic prosperity.”

On average, Americans pay about twice what other countries do for prescription drugs. Thanks to President Trump’s aggressive tariffs and the global trade war they are inciting, they might soon pay even more. [Snip] Although pharmaceuticals are currently exempt, it’s widely expected that won’t last. In his remarks announcing tariffs last week, Trump said, “The pharmaceutical companies are going to come roaring back. … because if they don't, they've got a big tax to pay,...” When they do, one of the biggest losers would likely be generic drug manufacturers...they account for about 90% of all prescriptions in the United States, a huge segment of Americans...

Aside from the rhetoric, there is a growing consensus among Western diplomats, military analysts, military officers, heads of state, and even much of the media about how to end the endless Ukrainian war. A proposed peace will see a DMZ established somewhere along an adjusted 1,200-mile Ukraine-Russia border. [Snip] If and when peace comes, we can already foresee the misinformation that will follow: Trump deserves no credit. Zelenskyy remains the true hero. A now hollowed-out Russia was the real winner. The only mystery? Since when did the anti-war left prefer an endless and horrific war to a difficult, messy peace?

The Supreme Court ruled 5-4 on Monday that Washington D.C. District Court Judge James Boasberg did not have the jurisdiction to hear the case involving President Donald Trump’s use of the Alien Enemies Act to deport a group of Venezuelan nationals and alleged gang members. [Snip] “Boasberg effectively usurped the president’s power and mandate to combat illegal immigration by thwarting his policy and micromanaging his operations to deport the terrorist illegal aliens of Tren de Aragua,...
