An unreleased poll appears to undermine the White House’s stated rationale for pivoting away from policies that inflame pharmaceutical companies. The Daily Caller News Foundation obtained a secret poll conducted in October 2025 by President Donald Trump’s longtime pollster Tony Fabrizio finding that 73% of voters expressed concern about childhood vaccine mandates, while a whopping 90% of voters expressed concern about the pharmaceutical industry’s corrupting influence. (EXCLUSIVE: Fauci Privately Called Natural Immunity Data ‘Impressive’ Before Forcing Jabs On Americans)The October poll was never released. White House officials in media reports have instead cited a more limited poll Fabrizio conducted a…

On Friday, Family Council sent a letter to the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Arkansas respectfully asking the office to enforce federal law as it applies to mail-order abortion drugs. Arkansas law generally prohibits abortion except to save the life of the mother, and it is a crime for an abortionist to mail abortion drugs like RU-486 into the state. But under President Biden, the U.S. Food and Drug Administration loosened its safety protocols to allow mail-order abortion drugs. Pro-abortion states have also enacted “shield laws” for abortionists who mail abortion drugs into states like Arkansas. Click here to sign…

Donald Trump endorsed Kansas Senate President Ty Masterson for governor on Sunday, throwing his weight behind a two-decade legislative veteran in a packed Republican primary that could determine whether the party reclaims the governor’s mansion after eight years of Democratic control.Trump announced his backing on Truth Social, praising Masterson as a candidate who would “work tirelessly to Champion Kansas Values.” He cited the Andover Republican’s record on the Second Amendment, tax cuts, and border security, the same checklist Trump has applied to endorsements across the country this cycle. The endorsement lands in a nine-candidate GOP primary set for August 4.…

President Trump on Sunday pushed back against critics of his administration’s ongoing nuclear negotiations with Iran, promising a deal far tougher than the one struck under Barack Obama and telling opponents they lack the information to judge what hasn’t been finalized.The written statements, reported by Just the News, came as Trump also disclosed he had advised his negotiating team not to rush into an agreement, a signal that the White House views patience, not speed, as the path to favorable terms. The remarks land at a moment when the administration’s Iran strategy faces scrutiny from both the left and elements…

The Trump administration moved Friday to shut down a pathway that allowed immigrants already living in the United States on temporary visas to obtain permanent residency without ever leaving the country, a shift that could upend plans for more than a million applicants and reshape how the legal immigration system operates.U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services issued new guidance directing its officers to treat the transition from temporary nonimmigrant status to lawful permanent residence under Section 245(a) of the Immigration and Nationality Act as a process that should generally take place overseas. Under the change, individuals on temporary status who want…

Days of leaked phone calls, anonymous sourcing, and breathless headlines about a rupture between President Trump and Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu over Iran may have been exactly what both leaders wanted the world, and Tehran, to believe. That is the assessment of a senior Israeli defense researcher, who told Fox News Digital that the public drama was a calculated feint designed to keep Iran off balance while Washington and Jerusalem remained fully aligned behind the scenes.The two leaders met at the White House to discuss Iran’s nuclear program and the situation in Gaza. But the meeting came after a…

Gérald Darmanin, France’s Justice Minister and a member of President Emmanuel Macron’s own Renaissance party, is now calling for a full three-year moratorium on legal immigration, a proposal that would have been unthinkable from a mainstream French cabinet official just a few years ago. In an interview with Le Journal du Dimanche, Darmanin declared that France can no longer absorb newcomers at its current pace and laid out a sweeping set of reforms that read more like the platform of the populist right than the centrist coalition he serves.The proposal lands ahead of next year’s presidential elections and amid fresh…

Two House Democrats say they will force a vote to expel Maureen Galindo from Congress every single day if the Texas candidate wins her way to Washington, a rare threat from lawmakers against a member of their own party, driven by a string of antisemitic statements that Democratic leadership itself has called “disqualifying.”Galindo, a sex therapist running in a San Antonio-based district, is competing in a May 26 Democratic runoff after finishing first in the primary. Her campaign social media posts have called for jailing “American Zionists,” accused Zionists of being pedophiles who should be castrated, and proposed converting a…

With less than six months before November’s midterm elections, White House Deputy Chief of Staff James Blair has quietly orchestrated an aggressive redistricting campaign across Republican-led states, an effort that could net the GOP as many as 13 additional House seats and reshape the congressional battlefield for years to come.The strategy, detailed by the Daily Mail’s Nikki Schwab, centers on early redistricting in states where Republicans hold the legislative levers. Texas, Florida, Missouri, North Carolina, and Ohio are the primary targets. Blair’s calculus: redraw the maps now, lock in structural advantages, and keep Democrats at bay not just through the…

Joe Biden served alongside Xavier Becerra for years in Washington. He put Becerra in charge of the Department of Health and Human Services during a pandemic. And now, with Becerra running for governor of California, Biden won’t lift a finger to help him win.The former president recently told his onetime chief of staff Ron Klain that he would sit out the California gubernatorial primary entirely, offering no endorsement to any candidate in the jam-packed Democratic field, the New York Post reported. The decision leaves Becerra without support from the man he served as a top official, heading into a June…

Despite having spent years ignoring seemingly endless Joe Biden gaffes and signs of mental and physical decline, NBC’s Today decided Tuesday it was going to take presidential health seriously by painting President Trump’s cognitive and physical health for office as “under a growing spotlight” with voters having serious doubts about his ability to remain in office. “To Washington now, President Trump heading to Walter Reed National Military Center for what the White House calls a medical and dental checkup. It’s his third visit in 13 months and puts a spotlight on the President’s health ahead of his 80th birthday next…

Screenshot Republican Michigan gubernatorial candidate John James unleashed a fiery broadside against the corporate media, accusing them of fueling a culture of political hatred that is helping radicalize unstable individuals against President Donald Trump. During an interview on Fox News, James, a combat veteran, Trump ally, and fearless voice for Michigan values, didn’t hold back during his Memorial Day weekend remarks. While the lamestream fake news media continues to peddle their hate-filled rhetoric, President Trump was hard at work negotiating for peace in the Middle East, sacrificing precious family time, including missing his own son’s wedding, because he loves this country…

Until Friday, whenever the Trump administration indicated a deal might be close to ending the 47-year war Iran has waged against us, the news generally wasn’t taken seriously, because key figures on the Iranian side, who most likely were the ones negotiating in private, contradicted themselves with the wildest possible denials publicly. All that changed in the last 96 hours or so, because for the first time since kinetic action destroyed most of the IRGC’s offensive capabilities, and virtually all of their defenses as well, indignant leaders in the regime shifted their rhetoric, albeit subtly at times, into overtures of opening…

Kentucky Congressman Thomas Massie delivering his concession speech. Fresh off last week’s humiliating double-digit primary drubbing at the hands of President Trump’s handpicked Navy SEAL warrior Ed Gallrein, disgraced Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) announced Monday that he had filed paperwork with the FEC for a 2028 run for the House — or something else entirely. Massie previously made a very clear declaration about his political future. Thomas Massie said: “If I lose on May 19th, I am not doing any more government ever.” So naturally, conservatives are asking the obvious question: If that was true, why is Massie now filing…

The 95-minute action-fantasy movie Hell Grind cost $500,000 to produce in 15 weeks and screened in Cannes. Please note the use of the term “in Cannes” and not “at Cannes.” Hell Grind did not screen at the Cannes Film Festival. Rather, it screened in the city of Cannes during the festival. Either way, it is practically guaranteed that in the decades to come, Hell Grind will have more impact on the future of movies, entertainment, and culture than all the tedious, gay romance titles that screened at Cannes this year. Put your prejudices aside and watch the first 22 minutes…

If you weren’t a political junkie, you could watch actress Sally Field give a 65-second speech at the end of Sunday’s 60 Minutes about the First Amendment and the “brilliance of our Constitution” and think it was like a “Bicentennial Minute” (which CBS aired in 1976). But we can easily guess that the 60 Squad was making an anti-Trump statement. As the Daily Beast summarized:  “CBS News’s flagship program broadcast a call to protect the First Amendment at a time when the Trump administration has repeatedly threatened its integrity.” This is what CBS aired: Sally Field’s brief First Amendment commentary…

“That is a very dangerous bluff”May 26, 2026 by Daniel Greenfield 1 Comment Indeed. Why would anyone in Alberta want to possibly benefit from unleashing their energy industry when they can instead subsidize Muslim migrants in Toronto and be perpetually on the hook for all the insane socialist spending sprees that Ottawa wants? But Albertexit seems to be gaining momentum so it’s time to scare the people with the specter of Brexit.

Minnesota Gov.

Former Washington Post columnist Dana Milbank believes he’s figured out why former Vice President Kamala Harris lost in 2024. For Democrats, the mystery of Harris’s profound electoral loss to President Donald Trump is ever-deepening, as they seemingly can’t believe it marks a national rejection of their ideology and policies. They continue to blame everyone and everything but themselves, with Milbank claiming that “backlash against a black woman” is part of the reason she came up short. Watch: Kamala Harris lost because of “the backlash against a black woman.” Dana @Milbank, ex of @washingtonpost and now @NOTUSreports, on @ThisWeekABC: “Why did…
