Eden: A comprehensive guide to overhauling higher education

By Max Eden | Commentary, Washington Examiner Five years ago, President Donald Trump’s education secretary, Betsy DeVos, stood all but alone against the Democratic drive for student loan forgiveness. The conventional wisdom at the time was that free-college-for-all was a sure-fire winning issue for the Democrats. Why wouldn’t Trump’s education secretary simply allow a polite, quiet surrender? How the times have changed. America has spent the past four years under an administration that governed according to university-created woke ideology. In the past year alone, college presidents kowtowed to pro-genocidal campus quad glampers. All of this has totally flipped Republicans, and so many people in general, against our universities. No one is wondering whether T...

House panel shares dueling findings in COVID report

By Vinay Simlot | Fox31 News Republicans and Democrats on the House subcommittee exploring the coronavirus pandemic released dueling reports. Republicans attacked the NIH Director and Dr. Anthony Fauci for mandates and social distancing. Democrats say the Trump administration’s response “led to the uncontrolled spread of COVID-19 in nursing homes,” their report said. “We are leaving with different impressions of what we did or did not find,” said Rep. Raul Ruiz (D-Calif.). READ THE FULL STORY AT FOX31 NEWS

Soros gave record cash to pro-Democratic ‘local news’ network that spent millions influencing 2024 election

By Robert Schmad | Washington Examiner A constellation of ostensibly local publications owned by a Democratic-aligned corporation based in New York City received a record amount of funding from the Soros network during the 2024 election cycle. The news network went on to spend millions on political advertisements praising Democrats and opposing Republicans, without disclosing their partisan ties. Courier Newsroom is a public benefit corporation that owns and operates a network of 11 media outlets presenting themselves as trusted sources of “local news.” These newsrooms, all of which are located in politically competitive states, however, have historically published favorable pieces about regional and national Democrats while giving unfavorable coverage to Republicans, all w...

Pete Hegseth shoring up support from key Republican senators as smear campaign falters

By Kristina Wong | Breitbart Trump Defense Secretary nominee Pete Hegseth is shoring up support from key Republican senators as a concerted smear campaign against him based on years-old allegations from anonymous sources has been disputed by many on-the-record. On Wednesday, Sen. John Thune (R-SD), the incoming Senate Majority Leader, voiced support for Hegseth, according to a Washington Examiner journalist. “I think he articulates a good vision, a strong vision for the Department of Defense, which I think is in need of some modernization and reform,” he said. “He’s obviously an experienced veteran, combat veteran, so he brings a lot of experience about what the warfighters’ needs are and how to keep America ready for the potential battles of the future.” READ THE FULL STORY AT...

Josh Hawley scolds airline executives for putting Americans through a ‘horrible’ flying experience

By Alexander Hall | Fox News Sen. Josh Hawley, R-Mo. skewered airline executives on Wednesday, arguing their service has been a ‘disaster’ for the American people. During a Senate Permanent Subcommittee on Investigations, senior executives from American Airlines, United Airlines, Delta Air Lines, Spirit Airlines and Frontier Airlines were questioned about their companies increasing fees on customoers.  Sen. Richard Blumenthal, D-Conn, the chair of the subcommittee, announced the hearing in late November, just as the committee released the findings of its PSI Majority Report. The report highlighted how major airlines have increasingly used ancillary or junk fees to boost their revenue, which has driven up costs for consumers, according to Blumenthal.

SCOTUS conservatives seem ready to uphold child sex change bans

By Katelynn Richardson | Daily Caller Every conservative justice expressed skepticism Wednesday of the Biden administration’s challenge to state ban on child sex changes, except Justice Neil Gorsuch. Gorsuch, who authored a landmark ruling in 2020 expanding sex discrimination to include gender identity and sexual orientation in the context of employment, didn’t say a word during over two hours of oral arguments. Tennessee’s law, which is at the center of the United States v. Skrmetti case, restricts minors from receiving medical treatments intended to help them live as an identity “inconsistent” with their sex. The Biden administration argues it draws sex-based lines on medical treatments in violation of the Fourteenth Amendment’s Equal Protection Clause. READ THE FULL STORY ON TH...

Raleigh: By pardoning his son, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden gave himself a pass

By Helen Raleigh | Commentary, Helen Raleigh Substack By pardoning his son, Hunter Biden, Joe Biden gave himself a pass for being a failed parent and a corrupt politician. My dad always tells me he loves me unconditionally, but that doesn't mean he will co-sign all my behaviors. One of the fundamental responsibilities of a parent is to teach your child right from wrong, and sometimes such teaching involves discipline, which we commonly refer to as tough love. Hebrews 12:11 reminds all parents, "No discipline seems pleasant at the time, but painful. Later on, however, it produces a harvest of righteousness and peace for those trained by it." Where Biden failed as a parent is that he either didn't understand or was unwilling to practice tough love. Instead, he equated co-signing H...

West: ‘No one is above the law,’ unless…

By Lt. Col. Allen West (ret.) | Commentary, American Constitutional Rights Union Yea, without a doubt, this is the topic de jour, perhaps for the week. In the waning days of the Biden administration, Joe Biden went against his very own words and pardoned his son, Hunter. How many times did we have to hear Biden and his White House mouthpiece, Karinne Jean-Pierre, state that “no one is above the law?” Well, that is true unless you are aligned with the progressive socialist left. And what is even more disconcerting is the comprehensive nature of this pardon…it covers anything over the past 10 years. And to witness Joe Biden doing this and then hopping on a plane to Angola. Just to remind everyone, Hunter Biden, who thought he would get some sugar plea deal, was found guilty of federal ...

Trump’s DEA nominee withdraws from consideration

By Christian Datoc | Washington Examiner Hillsborough County Sheriff Chad Chronister has withdrawn from consideration to head President-elect Donald Trump‘s Drug Enforcement Administration. In a statement, Chronister said Tuesday being nominated “the honor of a lifetime” but was stepping down after the “gravity of this very important responsibility set in.” “Over the past several days, as the gravity of this very important responsibility set in, I’ve concluded that I must respectfully withdraw from consideration. There is more work to be done for the citizens of Hillsborough County and a lot of initiatives I am committed to fulfilling,” he wrote in a statement. “I sincerely appreciate the nomination, outpouring of support by the American people, and look forward to continuing...

Fani Willis ordered to give watchdog all communications with special counsel Jack Smith

By Greg Wehner  | Fox News A Georgia judge ordered Fulton County District Attorney Fani Williams to hand over records related to her communications with special counsel Jack Smith and the U.S. House January 6 Committee after failing to comply with a request under the Open Records Act (ORA). The nonprofit group Judicial Watch filed a lawsuit against Willis in March after her office claimed it did not have any documents and communications on file between Willis and Smith or Willis and the January 6th Committee. But it turned out her office did have communications, and on Monday, Fulton County Superior Court Judge Robert McBurney ordered Willis to produce them within five business days. McBurney also determined in his ruling that Willis violated Georgia’s open records act b...
