Do you know what the nation’s “top companies” are? Do you think, perhaps, that businesses like Tesla, which made Elon Musk a billionaire, or SpaceX, which made Musk a trillionaire, are among the finest? Does it make sense to you that Walmart, the largest retailer in the world, or ExxonMobil, the largest shareholder-owned energy company in the world, should, at the very least, crack the top 100 American companies? Conversely, has Disney—a company that has seen its stock price almost cut in half over the last five years, that has suffered from repeated leadership controversies,

Money is the mother’s milk of politics. —Jesse Unruh, the 26th California treasurer The debate over money in politics is defined by a core tension between the ideals of transparency, privacy, and mandated disclosure. Proponents of robust transparency and disclosure requirements (especially America Firsters) argue that voters have a fundamental right to know who is funding candidates, parties, and issue advocacy since undisclosed “dark money” from wealthy individuals, corporations, unions, or foreign-linked entities can distort democratic outcomes, enable corruption or undue influence and facilitate implementation of left-wing policies funded by U.S. taxpayers without authorization or scrutiny. They push for lower reporting thresholds, real-time disclosures,

George Orwell's 1984 was a warning, not an instruction manual. It was based on the very real concern of a government becoming a totalitarian surveillance state where all the people did was observed, recorded, and scrutinized for any sign of WrongThink. It was a terrifying glimpse into Orwell's fears should his own preferred ideology of socialism take hold and go too far, but it wasn't just about socialism, either. It was what the state could do when no one stopped it. And while we've often invoked the imagery of Big Brother to make a point about surveillance overreach, things are scarier now than ever before...and gun owners are especially concerned.

Hello and welcome to Sunday, July 19, 2026. Among other things, today is Ice Cream Day, Daiquiri Day, Raspberry Cake Day, New Friends Day, Stick Out Your Tongue Day, Sundae Sunday, Football Day, Flight Attendant Safety Professionals' Day, International Retainer Day, Lake Superior Day, and Flitch Day. I don't know what to make of that. Anything that floats in your root beer, I suppose.So let's look at what's actually going on between Trump and Rubio. A few things stand out: Rubio's portfolio keeps growing. As secretary of State, he's literally everywhere on foreign policy, and Trump keeps handing him the delicate diplomatic assignments nobody else gets.

Last month, the U.S. Supreme Court handed down a blow to President Donald Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship. Sen. Bernie Moreno, R-Ohio, is still looking to take action, and he’s using a late Democrat Senate icon to do it. This past week Moreno introduced a bill to eliminate birthright citizenship, citing longtime Nevada Sen. Harry Reid, who introduced a similar bill in 1993. On Wednesday, Moreno introduced the Harry Reid Immigration Stabilization Act, which he previewed immediately following last month’s decision in Trump v. Barbara.

Another US service member has been killed in the Iran war, Central Command said Sunday — while adding that remains have been found in the area where an American soldier went missing in an earlier attack. The most recent tragic casualty occurred as US forces attempted a controlled detonation of unexploded devices from a downed Iranian attack drone in Iraq on Saturday, CENTCOM said. One service member was killed and another wounded, suffering minor injuries, during the detonation-turned-deadly, it said. The grim announcement came the day after two US service members were killed in Jordan in an Iranian airstrike and a third soldier reported to be missing in action.

The Tate brothers were arrested again on Saturday. Influencers Andrew and Tristan Tate were arrested by US Marshals in Miami according to the Associated Press and TMZ. The Tate brothers are wanted in the United Kingdom on rape and human trafficking charges. Andrew and Tristan Tate are dual British and US citizens. British prosecutors on Saturday night said they are seeking the extradition of the Tate Brothers. Video posted by TMZ shows the moment the Tate brothers were taken into custody by federal agents. The Tate brothers were arrested shortly before Andrew was set to cohost a boxing event.

am proud to be an American, not just because our nation has lasted 250 years with great success under the same charter, but because of our positive influence around the world. In World War I, we turned the tide in favor of the Allied forces. In World War II, Nazi totalitarianism would have won, but the United States bolstered Allied forces overseas and in the European theater. Japanese aggression throughout Southeast Asia, from 1931 to 1945, ended because of America. We dropped two atomic bombs on their homeland, and we forced their surrender. The Cold War was the longest battle. Yes, there were fewer battles, but many sanctions, lots of threats,

Democrats hate this country. They hate you if you don’t also hate this country. And they will do anything to avoid you continuing to live free in this country, up to and including murdering you, because that’s who they are. If Russia or China offered to help them seize power, they’d take the deal no matter what they asked for in return. After 250 years, one of our political parties has become infested with traitors the way an old dead tree becomes infested with termites. There is only one Democrat in the country speaking with any sense of sanity; one person who does not openly appeal to racism, anti-Semitism, anti-Americanism,

When will the members of the far-Left cabal learn? New York City, as the home of the United Nations headquarters, is hosting the U.N. General Assembly in the fall. And Democratic Socialist NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani expressed during a recent interview with a New York Times interviewer that he's holding onto a deeply-held wish and campaign promise: to have Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu arrested when the world leader arrives in his city to attend it. Mamdani wasn't finished, though, admitting that he's not 100 percent sure "whether he has the legal authority" to do it, and to that end, he's still consulting with his administration's Law Department. Netanyahu, meanwhile,

Democratic strategist James Carville criticized several major news outlets Friday for not airing President Donald Trump's primetime speech on Thursday, stating they missed an opportunity to show the president acting "loonier than a tune." The strategist was referring to the president's speech, in which he presented new evidence detailing multiple security breaches in elections he said were concealed by a self-proclaimed "shadow government" and the Biden administration. Mainstream media networks, ABC, CNN and NBC, all declined to show the speech on its news programs and opted to stream it online and show clips of it with commentary during their regular live programming.

From 2004 to 2020, the U.S. intelligence community monitored plans by the Venezuelan leadership to electronically manipulate their country’s own voting machines, including the use of substituting false votes, in order to secure victory for the ruling socialists. President Donald Trump, who declassified intelligence information on those plans and released them to the public on Thursday, says the Venezuelan capabilities are evidence that American voting systems need to be better secured. The Venezuelan plots specifically raised alarm bells in the United States because Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez collaborated with Smartmatic, a voting machine company that in 2005 acquired the U.S.-based Sequoia Voting Systems, to develop them.
