‘Who’s that who sat next to Gabe Evans at Trump’s speech?’ It was the mother of a Northern Colorado fentanyl victim

By Brian Porter | Rocky Mountain Voice If you tuned in to President Donald J. Trump's Address to the Nation on Tuesday, March 4, during a joint session of Congress, you might have gotten a glimpse of a number of lawmakers. One could be U.S. Rep. Gabe Evans, the representative from Colorado's 8th District. And seated next to him, you ask? That was Liz Hardy, who in the early hours of Jan. 1, 2022, tragically lost her middle daughter, Brooke. She consumed half of a counterfeit pill laced with a lethal amount of fentanyl. Brooke attempted to call 911 but could not give an address or reason for her call, and soon died. “One time, half a pill, and life for our family changed forever," Liz Hardy said. "If it were not for our faith in Christ, knowing we will see Brooke again one day, ...

Zelensky’s PR Problem: Americans are on Trump’s Side

By MIG Reports Key Takeaways: Trump’s recent comments about Ukraine President Zelensky are impacting American support for Ukraine aid. While many liberals still view solidarity with Ukraine as a moral imperative, appetite for military or financial aid is quickly drying up in both political parties. Republicans overwhelmingly support Trump’s strategy for dealing with the Ukraine-Russia conflict, often viewing Zelensky as a dictator. American sentiment toward Ukraine and its president Volodymyr Zelensky continues to deteriorate. Since the end of the Biden administration, the financial burden with uncertain benefits have been souring American taxpayers on what was once a largely supported cause. The rhetoric between Trump and Zelensky has escalated, bringing out frustration i...

Kirk: Elbridge Colby is the right man to carry out Trump’s America First mandate

By Charlie Kirk | The Federalist, Commentary President Trump was elected with a mandate — a mandate to rethink the core assumptions of Washington, D.C., that have led this country to disaster after disaster. A mandate to put America first instead of last. To fulfill his mandate, the president needs to be able to make the appointments of his choosing without being sabotaged by the members of his own party that he carried to victory in November. Yet right now, a fight has broken out over the nomination of Elbridge Colby to be undersecretary of defense for policy, the top strategy official at the Pentagon. Make no mistake: This is a make-or-break moment for whether Donald Trump’s America First foreign policy will succeed — or even happen. Colby is being attacked precisely because hi...

Kirk: What is Democracy?

By Charlie Kirk | Breitbart For your edification, here’s a selection of recent headlines published in our major news outlets: “Elon Musk’s political power grab threatens democracy and the economy.” “How Trump’s war on federal workers threatens democracy.” “Trump showdown with courts puts U.S. on the brink of abandoning democracy.” “Trump’s blitz to expand his power is direct threat to democracy, experts say.” I could find a few dozen more if I wanted, but I think you get the point. The Washington swamp and its media allies have settled on their line of attack against the new Trump administration, and it’s a tired one: Our democracy is in peril! READ THE FULL STORY AT BREITBART

Rufo: How to dismantle the U.S. Department of Education

By Christopher F. Rufo | Commentary, City Journal There is a tingle of fear in any corporation whenever the words “restructuring,” “merger,” “acquisition,” or “hostile takeover” spread through the office. Employees work on their resumes, whisper about projected layoffs, and assess their options. We’re seeing the same phenomenon unfold right now in our nation’s capital. Since taking over last month, President Trump has promised to blitz through federal departments to roll back waste, cut ideological programs, and return fiscal sanity to American governance. While Republican presidents have long promised to “reduce the size of government,” they have usually failed to do so—the bureaucracy always wins. This time might be different. The second Trump administration has been surprising...

Executive order calls for sweeping review of federal gun regulations in ‘protecting 2A rights’

By Benjamin S. Weiss  | Courthouse News President Donald Trump on Friday issued an executive order demanding a whole-of-government review of federal firearms regulations, a move which appeared aimed at papering over gun safety policies inked by the Joe Biden administration. But the Trump White House’s decree went further than simply undoing Biden’s legacy — its broad mandate invites the possibility of an even more expansive relaxation of federal gun rules. The executive order, issued Friday evening and entitled “Protecting Second Amendment Rights,” directs Attorney General Pam Bondi to examine a cornucopia of federal orders, regulations, guidance and international agreements to determine whether there are any “ongoing infringements” of constitutional gun rights.

Noem responds to Secret Service scrutiny as Trump to become 1st president to attend Super Bowl

By Danielle Wallace  | Fox News Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem defended the U.S. Secret Service, which is tasked with protecting President Donald Trump while he makes history Sunday as the first sitting U.S. president to attend the Super Bowl.  The Secret Service falls under the purview of the Department of Homeland Security. Asked if she'd had sufficient time to get into the department and investigate the lapses leading up to the July 13 assassination attempt on Trump in Butler, Pennsylvania, Noem told "Fox News Sunday" host Shannon Bream that DHS was "moving in the right direction," while stressing that hundreds of other DHS personnel outside Secret Service alone would be deployed during the game.  "And I'm proud of Secret Service and all the work that th...
