A lone progressive’s effort to impeach President Donald Trump failed Thursday, with nearly two dozen Democrats joining the House GOP to quash it. Rep. Al Green, D-Texas, moved to get a vote on two articles of impeachment Wednesday night via a privileged resolution, a mechanism allowing lawmakers to force action on a bill within two

The House has spent much of the last two months of this year trying to catch up on its work. It passed 22 bills in one recent day and held 13 committee meetings and hearings the day after. All told, the House has passed 41 bills since the end of the government shutdown on Nov.

Another week, another low-key but significant win for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). This time, Johnson steered the annual National Defense Authorization Act to passage on a 312–112 vote, even though the procedural rule squeaked through by a far narrower 215–211 margin.

Soon after the 2024 election and months before he took office, the foreign policy priorities of President Donald Trump‘s second term began to take shape.

ARLINGTON, Virginia — My wife was surprised to learn that I was headed to the airport on Monday. The next day was our daughter’s birthday, and I had been gone most of the past three weeks. I had not mentioned any travel plans to her, and she was counting on me to cook dinner. Alarmed

I marvel at the determination of MAGA-leaning intellectuals and apologists to define Trumpism as some sort of philosophy. Trumpism is whatever happens to suit President Donald Trump. When he turns 180 degrees, he expects his followers to — well, to follow. Those who insist on trying to find consistency in his ideas, or who claim

Many have left behind the obsession with diversity, equity, and inclusion that infected entertainment (and society) back in 2020.

Can you guess which of these quotes came from a politician and which came from a show for three-year-olds? “There are at least three [genders].” “I say to all trans and nonbinary people: We see you. We love you. We will never stop fighting for you.” “I’m nonbinary … And I also use ‘they’ and

The students who were sixth graders when schools first closed for COVID-19 are high school seniors today. In the Democrat-run school districts of our cities and large suburban counties, these students did most or all of seventh grade by “remote learning.” Then they spent eighth grade being forced to wear masks.
