White House Action Ensures Churches 'Can No Longer Be Intimidated' by IRS for Endorsing Candidates |
by Ben Johnson |
Pastors may now endorse candidates from the pulpit without fear of losing their tax-exempt status, thanks to a Trump administration court settlement that conservatives hail as a victory that will "no longer allow the IRS to bully us," while liberals denounce it as a "Christian Nationalist" plot that "threatens our democracy." |

Republicans Hit the Accelerator on the Next Wave of Trump's To-Do List |
by Suzanne Bowdey |
Passing the Big Beautiful Bill was tough, but not as tough as what faces Republicans now: selling it. Getting Americans on board with the idea when both barrels of the Democratic Party's guns are pointed at the president's law is becoming a full-time job for the GOP. "The test will be time," Senator Jim Justice (R-W.Va.) agreed. "If at the end of the day, the time makes everything work - and everything works to the positive - everything's great," he told The Hill. In the meantime, conservatives say, one of the smartest things congressional leaders can do is to keep moving full speed ahead with the White House's main agenda: shaking up Washington. |

Gaza Ceasefire Inches Closer, but Israel Remains Committed to Defeating Hamas |
by Joshua Arnold |
Hamas's genocidal war against Israel is proceeding so poorly that the masters of propaganda have now stooped to throwing grenades at aid workers. On Saturday, America suffered its first casualties in Gaza since Biden's floating pier fiasco, when terrorists motivated by Hamas's cash bounties threw grenades at two civilian contractors delivering aid to Gazans through the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). Fortunately, the grenades failed to kill their victims, just as Hamas has failed to prevent GHF from delivering more than 60 million free meals to Gazans, thus undermining their authority. |

When Sleeper Cells Meet the Resistance |
by Ben Johnson |
The recent attacks on immigration facilities show America may be living in the most dangerous point in our history. Imagine watching one of the many, well-funded left-wing riots targeting the Trump administration - attacking ICE agents, looting stores, trying to burn down police stations or federal buildings. Now imagine, as a bare-chested illegal immigrant bellows and hoists a Mexican flag over the corpse of a burning Tesla, another masked figure suddenly runs behind him yelling "Allahu akbar!" as he detonates an entire city block. |

Argentina About-Face Achieved through Free-Market Policies |
by Joshua Arnold |
Something remarkable is happening on the southern tip of the Western hemisphere. In a mere 18 months, Argentinian President Javier Milei has turned one of the world's most miserable countries into one of the world's fastest-growing economies. "Instead of talking about growth at Chinese rates, the world will soon be talking about growth at Argentine rates," Milei boasted in April. |

Transgender Prison Policies in Washington State: A Case Study in Controversy |
by Sarah Holliday |
In Washington state, transgender prison policies have sparked intense debate, with the case of Christian Scott Williams serving as a stark example. Williams, a 6-foot-4 biological male, violent criminal, and repeated sex offender, was transferred to the Washington Corrections Center for Women (WCCW) in 2021 because he identified as a woman (even though he continued to go by the same name). By June 2025, however, he was moved back to a men's facility following serious allegations and a federal lawsuit. |
