Mahmoud Khalil's case is, as Dan Linnaeus explains in the X post linked below, something of a dividing line in how people think about citizenship, the right to stay in a Western country, the limits of tolerance we must have for hatred from noncitizens, and most of all over whether we should see non-Westerners as everywhere and always victims, and Westerners as oppressors who deserve whatever we get.
The American left is appalled that Khalil is being deported for his arguably illegal, and certainly anti-American and antisemitic "activist" activities while a student at Columbia University. He helped organize and lead protests that led to assaults, property damage,

These days, to paraphrase Mark Twain's observation about the weather, everyone complains about extreme rhetoric and political violence, but no one does much about it. No one, perhaps, except Harmeet Dhillon.
At a recent anti-ICE rally in Minneapolis, Turning Point USA observer/reporter Savanah Hernandez got assaulted by activists for recording the public events. Minneapolis police identified the trio that assaulted Hernandez as members of the Ostroushko family – father Christopher, mother Deyanna, and adult daughter Paige. The video depicts Christopher Ostroushko blindsiding Hernandez, who was injured in the attack. The local police investigation resulted in a minor misdemeanor charge against only Christopher in Hennepin County,

Do you ever wonder why so many Blue states refuse to hand over their voter rolls to the federal government?
After all, there is a federal law that requires certain measures to ensure ballot integrity, passed in the wake of the 2000 Florida debacle. It requires, among other things, that states clean their voter rolls of ineligible voters.
But these states refuse to do that, and they refuse to show that they aren't breaking federal law.
Of course, every sentient person knows exactly why they do both of those things: they cheat, and want to make it as hard as possible to detect the cheating, and almost impossible to audit elections

For decades, the mental health industry and its allies in media, government, and education have operated on a simple assumption: the more mental health awareness we spread, through campaigns, school programs, social media, and public service announcements, the better. Raise awareness, reduce stigma, encourage help-seeking, and mental health will surely improve.
New evidence shows the opposite is happening. Well-intentioned awareness efforts are actively backfiring, manufacturing distress, inflating diagnoses, and turning normal human emotions into chronic “disorders.” The shocking result is that these campaigns are turning mentally fit people into self-diagnosed mentally ill patients, with symptoms effectively “contracted” from the awareness messages themselves.

Happy Friday, dear Kruiser Morning Briefing friends.(Snip) Let's do some quick commie bashing and head into the weekend.
Anyone who has been reading me for a while knows that I have some words that I use interchangeably, like communism and socialism. Or Hakeem Jeffries and idiot. We'll be focusing on the first two for the purposes of our discussion today.
Without paying any real attention to the date yesterday, I wrote a column about Hollywood, capitalism, and socialism. I must have had May Day on the mind. It's about the fact that, in a less-than-perfect American free market, the entertainment industry is one of the freest examples

Americans love arguing about free speech. We invoke the First Amendment as a kind of political force field: You can say whatever you want, whenever you want, without consequence.
But the First Amendment only restricts government action. It does not guarantee you a career, a platform or immunity from backlash. The real question is not whether certain speech is legal but rather what kind of speech deserves social consequences — and what kind doesn't.
And if we're talking about reckless political speech, we should talk about Jimmy Kimmel. Years ago, he abandoned comedy in favor of applause lines, tearful monologues and the occasional performance of empathy. He's an unfunny

Sometimes, a politician reveals more than they should during their unguarded moments before a friendly face on cable television, as Sen. Jackie Rosen (D-NV) recently did to Michael Steele on MS NOW:
On Monday’s broadcast of MS NOW’s “The Weeknight,” Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) said that the shooting at the White House Correspondents’ Dinner is “about how it comes from our leaders. When people talk about destroying civilizations or calling people name[s], normalizing all of these things, we should not be doing that.”
Sen. Rosen was referencing a Truth Social post from April 7, 2026, when President Donald Trump warned, in reference to the Iranian regime, that "a whole civilization

We haven't heard much about former Democrat Rep. Eric Swalwell (CA-14) over the last couple of weeks, presumably because the investigations are continuing into the disturbing allegations of sexual assault that were made against him earlier this month, claims which resulted in his exit from the California gubernatorial race and his resignation from Congress.
Someone else who we haven't heard much from beyond canned social media posts is Swalwell's (now-former?) bestie, Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-AZ), whose well-documented bromance was the stuff of legends in Capitol Hill Democrat political circles. At one point, they were roommates in D.C. and going on overseas junkets

Once again, a wannabe assassin has attempted to murder President Trump. This marks at least the fifth time that a person or group has tried to take Trump’s life since he became the Republican nominee for president in 2016.
During this time period, a Democrat from Illinois tried to assassinate an entire baseball team of Republican lawmakers and nearly succeeded in killing House Majority Whip Steve Scalise. Antifa domestic terrorists — a paramilitary organization supporting the Democrat Party — have destroyed businesses and attacked numerous American citizens for their political beliefs. A “trans”-supporting leftist assassinated the great Charlie Kirk last September 10, and numerous

When I write about politics, or the pope, or abortion, or immigration, I expect to get a lot of blowback from people who disagree with me.
It comes with the territory, that territory being opinion writing.
I have a thick skin, and forge ahead with my views on everything from papal infallibility to Taylor Swift's universal and incomprehensible appeal.
Which is why I’m prepared to hear complaints for calling out the hypocrisy spewing from The Atlantic’s David Brooks and his much younger second wife.
Brooks is a man who makes mashed potatoes look ethnic, he is so suburban, preppy and white. I don't mean "white" as in Caucasian. I mean the color.

Luke Rosiak, a fine reporter at the Daily Wire, has uncovered an explosive story about the Biden Administration's conspiracy to funnel $90 million in forgivable small business loans during the COVID pandemic.
They knew Planned Parenthood was not eligible, so in order to hide the transactions, they created a codename for the organization to hide their discussions from FOIA requests, violating the law. (X) Credit where credit is due: Joni Ernst ferreted out the scheme, which is yet another example of the massive Democratic fraud that was enabled by the COVID "emergency."
It all began when the floodgates for forgivable loans were opened in 2020, and the Trump administration

"The Democratic Party has created monsters among them," Jan. 6 criminal defense attorney Marina Medvin posted to X in the wake of yet another assassination attempt on President Donald Trump Saturday night. "The most interesting part" of attempted assassin Cole Allen's manifesto and social media posts is that they're "generally indistinguishable from most liberal social medial accounts belonging to Democrat voters in America."
Dems, you have a problem.
"The same week the New York Times published a cozy interview justifying the murder of people whose politics you don’t like, the same week we learned that the Unite the Right Charlottesville rally was funded by the Left-wing Southern Poverty Law Center,
