Democrats have many problems, not the least of which is an inability to understand, and for some the refusal to accept, basic economics. If they did, there wouldn’t be proposals to raise the federal minimum wage to a preposterous $25 an hour. House Resolution 8555 would “place the federal minimum wage on a durable path toward a living wage,” requiring “large, highly profitable corporations to lead the transition.” Under its yoke, large employers would have to raise their lowest wage from the current $7.25 an hour to $15 an hour on Jan. 1, 2027, a more-than-double spike that would shock the market. Large companies,

The US military launched a new barrage of strikes on Iran on Sunday evening to “continue degrading” Tehran’s ability to attack commercial vessels in the Strait of Hormuz. President Trump directed the US Central Command forces to begin the fresh round of strikes around 5 p.m. ET to “hold Iranian forces accountable,” CENTCOM announced in a statement on X. The US completed the wave of strikes against Iran after “hitting dozens of targets at multiple locations with precision munitions,” the military command said in an update on Sunday night. Among the targets bombarded by strikes were Iranian military air-defense systems, coastal radar sites,

While the world rightfully noted and mourned the passing of Senator Lindsey Graham (R-SC) on Saturday, July 11, 2026 — well, most of the world anyway — another passing from earthly life to eternal glory took place on this date that deserves mention. Christian songwriter Bob Farrell, known during the 1970s and 1980s for his Farrell & Farrell music and life partnership with wife Jayne, told cancer you can have my temporal body in exchange for the incorruptible one he now enjoys in Heaven. Farrell & Farrell had a lengthy, successful run as soft rockers, with occasional forays into techno and mainstream pop. The duo was never flashy nor trendy,

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger says concertgoers want to escape from politics and everyday worries rather than sit through political speeches. Jagger made the remarks during an interview on The New York Times podcast after being asked about Bruce Springsteen, who has repeatedly used his current tour to lambast President Trump. Host David Marchese noted that Springsteen “clearly sees his job as engaging in a meaningful back and forth” with audiences before asking Jagger what his own relationship with fans means to him. Jagger said his priority is giving audiences a break from the outside world.

In Episode 86 of the Sceptic, host Ellie Hodges talks to journalist, lawyer and UsForThem founder Molly Kingsley about the Government’s little-noticed plans to reshape Britain’s online media landscape, why she believes they could sideline independent voices in favour of establishment broadcasters and what they could mean for free speech online. And for our premium subscribers, Ellie sits down with independent energy consultant Kathryn Porter to discuss whether Britain’s electricity grid is being pushed to breaking point. They dig into recent low-frequency events, claims that NESO is downplaying serious risks, explosive whistleblower allegations and whether this winter could bring a real risk of blackouts.

A Russian soldier narrowly escaped being killed after an improvised anti-drone weapon malfunctioned during a live-fire test, sending thousands of rounds spraying across a military training ground. Footage circulating widely on social media shows troops testing a Yak-B 12.7mm rotary machine gun, originally designed for Mi-24 attack helicopters, mounted on the back of a military flatbed truck. Moments after the gunner opened fire, the weapon violently spun out of control. The recoil threw the operator from his position as the gun continued firing uncontrollably, peppering the training area with live ammunition.

For decades, the Democratic Party exploited—but also restrained—its more liberal, anti-American activists. However, as they have become outrageously progressive, communistic, and violent, they have lost control of themselves, and now they are taking over. Democratic Party operatives thought they could maintain control, and for a while, they succeeded. The efforts of aggressive progressive partisans succeeded in taking over the DNC in 1972. They promoted progressive George McGovern for president, and the Democratic National Committee embraced some of the most radical left-wing positions.

The Republican National Committee going into the weekend released details about its first midterm convention ahead of the November elections – a sign that President Donald Trump's tenacious and grueling work schedule is finally rubbing off on the GOP and is leaders after years of trying to keep pace. Whether advancing his agenda, holding events, or dominating the news cycle, Trump's pace has been notoriously relentless. For weeks after his June 30 post, the broader party apparatus appeared to be playing catch-up—planning in the background while the president kept moving.

Just five days before his death, late Sen. Lindsey Graham defiantly scoffed at images of Iranians parading around with a poster of a bullseye on his head. Iranians at the extended state funeral of the late Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei were seen with signage targeting Trump, conservative commentators Ben Shapiro and Laura Loomer, GOP mega-donor Miriam Adelson and others with text that translated to “In the end, your heads will be severed.” At least they used a good photo of me. Judge me by my enemies,” Graham (R-SC) posted on X in response. Iranian Supreme Leader Mojtaba Khamenei, who hasn’t been seen publicly since Operation Epic Fury began in February,

Speaking to Maria Bartiromo on Fox News’ Sunday Morning Futures, Lee discussed Graham’s strong enthusiasm for the bill during what turned out to be his last conversation with President Donald Trump, emphasizing multiple paths forward for passage and stressing that the American people deserve and want the measure. The remarks come in the wake of Graham’s sudden death on Saturday evening. Trump had appeared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” on Sunday morning to discuss the loss, revealing that his final conversation with Graham earlier that Saturday night was about passing the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility (SAVE) America Act.

The sad news of Sen. Lindsey Graham’s (R-SC) sudden death on Saturday night at the age of 71 is still fresh, and Republican colleagues and world leaders have been issuing tributes to the four-term senator and his long service to the country. Meanwhile, ghouls on the Left are mocking his passing and showing how truly blinded by hate they’ve become over partisan bickering. Sick. As unseemly as it might feel, the reality of politics is that life goes on despite tragedy, and Graham’s death puts the U.S. Senate in turmoil. He was chairman of the powerful Budget Committee and a member of both the Appropriations and Judiciary Committees.

We reported on the story that Democratic Rep. Ro Khanna (CA-17) told of being "detained" in the West Bank. As we noted, the Israeli Defense Force (IDF) disputed Khanna's claim that they were involved in any "detention" of Khanna's group, and said they helped resolve the situation when they arrived. The Israeli police also said that this was a "closed military zone" (CMZ) area where civilians weren't allowed.Now the Israeli Ambassador to the U.S., Michael Leiter, has weighed in and leveled Rep. Khanna. Leiter explained how they reached out to Khanna when they found out he was coming,
