MAGA Didn’t Vote For War With Iran

by Jack Hunter | Sep 2, 2026 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, Politics

Do you remember over the course of the 2016, 2020, and 2024 presidential elections when Donald Trump and his “Make America Great Again” movement promised to launch the United States into yet another Middle Eastern war, this time with Iran? No? No one does. Because it didn’t happen. “When I'm back in the White House, we will expel the warmongers, the profiteers, and take over our government and we will restore world peace," Trump said during a National Guard Association speech in August 2024 to cheers and applause. Trump’s future Director of National Intelligence, former congresswoman,...

Randy Fine: Terrorist By Any Definition

by Jack Hunter | Aug 18, 2026 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy

Rep. Randy Fine (R-FL) posted the following on Twitter/X Thursday night: It’s no longer Republicans vs. Democrats. It’s Americans who love this country vs. terrorists who want to destroy it. — Congressman Randy Fine (@RepFine) August 13, 2026 Fine appeared to be putting himself on Team America against both, or either, the leftwing, including a new crop of democratic socialists who keep winning Democratic primaries, or also perhaps Palestinians (maybe Hamas specifically, maybe not), who the congressman does not like and has even compared to dogs (for starters). Fine is a vocal Zionist who has...

America’s 250th Celebration Belongs To You, Not DC

by Jack Hunter | Jul 3, 2026 | Featured Articles

Americans reading this are lucky enough to be alive on the 250th anniversary of their country’s declaration of independence. How independent the United States actually is these days or how much the country remains dedicated to the ideals of the founding is highly debatable. What is not debatable is that it was the colonies making a break from old Europe and formally beginning a new nation as a distinct people in their own country. What kind of people? For America’s 150th anniversary, President Calvin Coolidge said in a speech on July 5, 1926, “In its main features the Declaration of...

Is Mike Huckabee Putting Personal Faith Above National Duty?

by Jack Hunter | Jun 19, 2026 | Featured Articles

U.S. Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee said in his keynote address to the graduating class of Yeshiva University on May 28, “I want you to know I'm not a Zionist because I'm Jewish.” It’s worth noting that Huckabee is a Southern Baptist minister from Arkansas and is the first non-ethnically Jewish U.S. ambassador to Israel since 2011. Huckabee continued, “I'm a Zionist and an unapologetic one because I believe the Bible.” Many American evangelical Zionists, including by his own admission here, Southern Baptist Huckabee, believe that the current state of Israel formed in 1948 are the Jews of...

Massie’s Detractors Still Pretend the Israel Lobby Doesn’t Exist

by Jack Hunter | Jun 1, 2026 | Featured Articles, Politics

Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) recently lost the most expensive primary race in American history. Why? For some, this remains a grand mystery. It was a mystery, apparently, for The Daily Wire’s Michael Knowles after the primary runoff defeat of Senator John Cornyn in Texas. Knowles posted: Why did the Israel lobby remove Cornyn? That is the key to understanding all these primary upsets, right? — Michael Knowles (@michaeljknowles) May 27, 2026 To which comedian, libertarian and Jewish-American Dave Smith replied with the-most-obvious-observation-in-the-world to anyone who has remotely paid...

Thomas Massie Gives the ‘America First’ Leadership Trump Promised

by Jack Hunter | May 18, 2026 | Featured Articles, Politics

When Donald Trump ran for president in 2024, he promised, among other things, no more U.S. regime change wars, no more of America sending its citizens’ dollars to fund foreign nations, and that he and Elon Musk would drastically cut federal departments and overall spending, finally taking a hatchet to the country’s mounting debt. In other words, the opposite of the last Republican president, George W. Bush. It is 2026, the United States is stuck in a seemingly endless regime change war in Iran, America continues to funnel money to nations around the world (particularly Ukraine and Israel),...

Zionists Are Gunning for Your Freedom of Speech

by Jack Hunter | May 1, 2026 | Criminal Justice, Featured Articles

The First Amendment of the Bill of Rights in the Constitution of the United States guarantees the right to free speech. This right has long differentiated the United States from other Western nations like the United Kingdom and Canada where laws against so-called “hate speech” laws exist and are enforced. Thankfully, America is different. In our country, even alleged hate speech is protected speech to ensure democratic principles and debate. In a 1929 dissenting opinion, Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes said that the Constitution secured “freedom for the thought that we hate.” In...

Tucker Carlson Defends GOP’s ‘Traditional Conservative Base’ Against Neocons

by Jack Hunter | Mar 5, 2026 | Featured Articles, Foreign Policy, Politics

Co-founder of The Daily Wire Jeremy Boreing recently shared a clip of an interview he did in which he criticized Tucker Carlson and his foreign policy views: As Tucker's attacks on the Trump Administration and the traditional conservative base become more pronounced, the electoral future of the American Right may come down to one all-important question: Do the radical voices that claim JD Vance actually have a claim on JD Vance? My… pic.twitter.com/IChHLgyY4w — Jeremy Boreing (@JeremyDBoreing) February 23, 2026 This happened right before President Donald Trump’s decision to launch a U.S. war...
