When gray-haired white liberals take to America’s streets for “No Kings” protests, the only danger they’re exposing themselves to is ridicule. But what happens when progressive protesters head to a foreign war zone? Last weekend, the “Global March to Gaza” found out. Thousands flocked from wealthy European countries like Ireland and Luxembourg, joined by activists…

Five years later, the COVID-19 pandemic has left many scars on Virginia and the country. In addition to the death toll, the massive job losses, the lost years of our children’s education, and the harm to the economy that still exists to this day, it exposed the authoritarian power of state governments to control the…

Protesters in Los Angeles once again launch violent assaults this weekend against U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement and law enforcement officers.

J.J. Spaun was born and raised in the Los Angeles suburb of San Dimas. He was the unlikely winner of the U.S. Open golf tournament Sunday. At 34 years old, he had only one PGA championship win before winning the most difficult tournament in all of golf. He started the tournament just one shot behind…
