Socialists and Islamists once toppled a shah. Then came the reckoning.

The Democrats will control both houses of Congress in January. On the party's left flank, the Democratic Socialists of America saw six new House candidates win, joining Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-N.Y.) and Rashida Tlaib (D-Mich.). The DSA’s own post-election statement boasts that its members will fight for Medicare…

Dana White to meet with Trump after 'joke' job offer

President Donald Trump generated waves over the weekend with his apparently tongue-in-cheek announcement on Saturday that "the Great Dana White, a violent Fighter and Warrior, has been offered the job of Press Secretary of the United States."

Young Americans can’t afford the future Washington won’t build

Young Americans don’t need another lecture about how to live more cheaply. They need an economy capable of producing more of what they need. Electricity bills are climbing. Buying a first home can seem impossibly distant. Even young professionals with decent salaries delay moving out, building savings, and starting…

Don’t be fooled by Bernie Sanders — tech won the midterms

Thanks to the loud noises of a few boldface names on the left, Americans are getting the impression that the Democrats of 2026 are the anti-technology party.

The election is over. People will spend weeks picking apart the results. Meanwhile, family caregivers are sorting medications, helping someone get dressed, and having late-night conversations with the ceiling fan.

GOD AND GUNS: The biblical case for armed self-defense

God does not leave His people unarmed and then call the resulting vulnerability “faith.” From the first organization of Israel after the Exodus to the final instructions Jesus gives His disciples before the cross, Scripture treats the capacity for defensive force as ordinary, necessary, and compatible with obedience.

The JFK secrets survived another Congress. Imagine that.

Hours after Democrats won the House on Tuesday, Rep. Robert Garcia (D-Calif.), poised to chair the Oversight Committee, offered two words: “ Lawyer up .” He has named four priorities : Trump family business dealings, Homeland Security and ICE, corporate corruption, and public hearings on the Epstein files. The JFK and…

Elon Musk's next target? America's self-entitled phone companies.

America loves competition, except, apparently, when it comes to your phone bill. For years, the wireless market has been dominated by three Mafia-like fat cats: Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile. They compete for customers, of course. But Americans could be forgiven for wondering whether somebody forgot to invite a fourth…

What happens to the human soul when AI makes work optional?

Tech entrepreneur Elon Musk has repeatedly predicted that a day is coming soon when AI and robotics will make traditional work optional in a utopian age of abundance, where humans will rely on universal high income while pursuing personal interests.

Who rules the ruling class?

The results of the midterm elections are clear; their meaning is not. The blue tsunami apparently has not budged either of the dominant intellectual factions on the right. The so-called “doomers” see fresh support for their conviction that the republic is sliding more or less inexorably into ruin. The more…

Apple’s AI now needs a photo of your face — to satisfy new age-verify laws

Some of the first age verification laws are starting to roll out across the United States. One of them requires iPhone owners to take a selfie so that Apple’s AI can verify their age. Here’s which states are affected so far, plus the more intrusive measures you can expect in the future.

Muslims organize openly. Why do Christians act like they can’t?

Muslim communities are organizing politically in America, and they are not apologizing for it. Mosques in North Texas have become voter-registration hubs . In Michigan, Muslim candidates and activists have demonstrated the power of an organized constituency. The state has just elected the nation’s first Muslim U.S…

Democrats' state-level takeover is staggering

That thing critics of gay 'marriage' were promised wouldn't happen keeps happening

West Hollywood just vindicated yesteryear's critics of homosexual "marriage." In 2004, Massachusetts became the first state to legalize homosexual "marriage." By the time the U.S. Supreme Court ruled in June 2015 that the right to wed was guaranteed by the Constitution to same-sex couples, 35 states and the District…

GM made millions selling your driving data. Where's your cut?

General Motors has agreed to pay $220 million to settle allegations that it collected and sold customers' driving information without their knowledge or consent. But the drivers whose information was allegedly sold — some of whom saw their insurance premiums increase — won't receive a dime.

Reddit locks down as bots eat the internet. Can online anonymity survive?

Reddit was boosted heavily in Google Search results for years, driving clicks and promoting sustainability. So it’s no surprise that Reddit took a massive hit when AI Overview overshadowed Search, and now Reddit is locking its platform to prevent AI — and people — from accessing it without an account.

Why Christians lose elections

The midterm left me with a question: Why do Christians lose elections? Is it because there aren't enough Christians left? Because the other side has more money? Because Christians aren't politically organized? Was this merely an anti-Trump rage vote on Iran, ICE, tarrifs, or gas prices?

The day after tomorrow: A new GOP

Republicans are depressed, panicked, and angry. It is hard to imagine much else after the Watergate-level beating they took Tuesday night. None were spared. Moderates, grassroots, MAHA, and neocons were caught alike in the blue squall, and unsurprisingly, predictions of doom abound.

One of the things the data analysts on our side obsessed over going into this midterm election was "composition" — whether the electorate looked close enough to 2024 for Republicans to win. And despite polls that showed a Democrat blowout, the data kept on telling us the same story: in some states turnout was merely…
