| The Muslim Rebellion Brewing in the Democratic Party |
| by Matt Carpenter |
| In eight months, Americans will vote for president. All available polling and recent primary results indicate that the country is looking at a rematch of the 2020 election with Joe Biden and Donald Trump. Millions of primary voters have yet to cast their ballot, and given concerns with the president's age and ability and the current lawfare entangling the former president, anything can happen between now and November 5. But, as a thought experiment, let's briefly examine one of the current trends playing out in the presidential election: the rebellion of Muslim voters. |

| by Joshua Arnold |
| "This whole kerfuffle in Alabama has revealed ... the worldview of the Left, which is a worldview of death.

| by Suzanne Bowdey |
| Even Leap Year won't save Congress from the countdown clock on government funding. An extra day in February is nice, but not enough to slog through the last five appropriations bills before the March 1 and 8 deadlines. For Mike Johnson (R-La.), it's a surprisingly familiar predicament to be in during his brief time as speaker. Jammed up against an unrealistic date, with no help from the Senate's sloths, he's had to pass one spending bridge after another in hopes that one of these days, Congress will decide to do its most fundamental job: budget. |

Many have argued that the well-being of those who are here illegally seems to be prioritized over those who are here legally. |
