This article was originally published by Michael Snyder at The End of the American Dream. Massive explosions are being reported all over Iran as the U.S. conducts airstrikes in Iranian territory for a second night in a row. This isn’t exactly a surprise because just hours ago President Trump declared that the ceasefire is “over” and he openly warned that “we’re going to hit them hard again tonight”. Of course, the Iranians have absolutely no intention of backing down. They are reportedly preparing a very large response, and they are considering moves that would definitely take this conflict to the next level.…
There’s a profound difference between lawfare and just trying to correct wrongs. One is all about punishing the other side, regardless of the outcome. The other is about holding authorities accountable when they try to break the law. For example, there was a lawsuit in Bradford County, Florida. I covered the incident at the time. Basically, a sign at the county-owned fairground said that open carry was prohibited. As Florida has preemption, that’s not something they can do. They were asked about it and refused to follow the law, so they got sued.And that did…

For years, a familiar narrative has taken hold across the United States. Young Americans, critics argue, are less resilient than previous generations. Less willing to serve. More interested in screens than sacrifice. Marine Corps Commandant Gen. Eric Smith doesn’t buy it. In fact, after spending nearly four decades leading Marines, including the last several years overseeing one of the nation’s only military services consistently meeting its recruiting goals, Smith says today’s young Americans possess the same character and commitment as the Marines who fought at Iwo Jima, Chosin Reservoir and Fallujah. Their last names have changed, Smith told Military.com during…
The 250th birthday of the United States is also a reflection of the nation’s global diplomacy, notably its long and friendly relationship with ally France. Both are coming together this weekend to honor American veterans.

This article was originally published by Vincent Cook at The Mises Institute. In his 6/23 Truth Social post (figure 1), President Trump noted that the prices paid by major American oil companies for foreign crude are falling much faster than the prices of their retail products, and suggested that there is something criminal about this that the Department of Justice (DOJ) needs to look into: Figure 1: Trump Denounces Oil Price “Gouging” Source: Truth Social The political motivations for Trump’s grandstanding about oil prices are obvious—the financial interests of the vast majority of voters are much more strongly affected by the retail…
Virginia Gov. Abigail Spanberger ran as a moderate who was just interested in making life more affordable for Virginians. While I disagreed with how she wanted to make it more affordable, I could see that as a laudable enough goal. The problem is that she got into office and immediately jumped on redistricting and gun control, which was not what she told the people would happen. And neither has really gone according to plan.Redistricting got shot down by the state supreme court, and her efforts at gun control–which, in fairness, are extensive–are also blowing up…
