Hugh Hewitt: Promises Made; Promises Kept

Townhall Review | Commentaries ·

2025/07/31

President Trumpran on closing the border and taming inflation. Done. The borders closed. Period. No new law was needed. Deportations will require years of efforts—but the consequences of President Biden’s open border are being reduced on a daily basis. Trump had promised for more than a decade that Iran would not be allowed to have a nuclear weapons program. Trump sent the B-2s and obliterated it. The President told elites that he’d stand with the forgotten men and women passed

Millions were transfixed by video of a couple caught cheating at a Coldplay concert. Some are surprised by the widespread fascination — but perhaps we shouldn’t be. What made the video compelling was how the cheating couple reacted when the kiss cam found them. It wasn’t rational behavior—they’d have stood a greater chance of getting away with it if they hadn’t hidden. But their behavior was instinctive. And that recalls the observation of the great Christian

Ed Morrissey: Trump’s Bully Diplomacy

Townhall Review | Commentaries ·

2025/07/29

Bill Maher spoke the words that no one else in the mainstream media will say: Donald Trump was right about tariffs, and he was wrong. Not one other Trump critic has thus far made a public record of their error or even acknowledged that the stock markets never crashed, as they predicted. Nor have Trump’s critics recognized the value of his “bully diplomacy” with the EU, Japan, and other trading partners. Not only do these agreements balance out trade, they strategically isolate

Chris Stigall: Dismantling the Abusive System

Townhall Review | Commentaries ·

2025/07/28

Our political landscape is sharply divided. On one side we have the Clinton-Obama-Biden Democrats, who have wielded the extensive machinery of government as a weapon against opponents and citizens to retain power. On the other, we have Donald Trump, who’s dismantling that same system. And the contrast couldn’t be more clear. The Obamagate story we see unfolding is particularly clarifying: Democrats all too willing to weaponize government against a popular political enemy. It’s

In the end. Columbia University chose to do the right thing. But only after almost every other option got exhausted. After abdicating authority for months while agitators targeted Jewish students and faculty for intimidation, the Trump administration suspended access to nearly a half-billion dollars in federal funds. Columbia finally threw in the towel this week. First, they suspended or expelled dozens of students that seized and vandalized the library in May. Then they agreed to pay more than $220

Hugh Hewitt: 2024: The Democrats' Nightmare

2025/07/24

Josh Dawsey, Tyler Pager and Isaac Arnsdorf are out with a new book on last year’s tumultuous presidential campaign. Titled simply “2024,” the volume has within it much that is familiar, as well as many blasts of new details. The short of it is this: The 2024 election is the stuff of nightmares for Democrats, nightmares that are not going to away anytime soon. They came away from 2024 asking: Can anyone in the party’s circle of consultants and donors actually run a campaign

Carol Platt Liebau: A Win for Parents

2025/07/23

The Supreme Court has allowed President Trump to continue dismantling the Department of Education. Parents across the country should be celebrating, and here’s why. Between 1950 and 2009, the student population in public schools grew by ninety six percent — but non-teaching staff skyrocketed by an amazing seven hundred percent. They explode school budgets, and line the coffers of the politically powerful teachers’ unions. But they do virtually nothing to educate our children. But

Seth Liebsohn: Remembering Ed Feulner, 1941-2025

Townhall Review | Commentaries ·

2025/07/22

Mentioning Townhall is not to say it was always with us, or inevitable. Townhall was birthed into the nascent online community of news and commentary in 1995, by the dint and work of a giant in the conservative community—Edwin J. Feulner. Dr. Feulner passed away last week. Just as Townhall was not inevitable, neither was the intellectual and puissant conservative movement as we know it and knew it. Ed Feulner was one of a handful that made it happen. His founding and leadership of the Heritage

2025/07/21

Former CIA Director John Brennan and Former FBI Director James Comey are under criminal investigation for potential wrongdoing. Together, they drove the Russiagate narrative that undermined the Trump 2016 campaign and derailed half his first term. Neither is likely to see the inside of a jail cell. The statute of limitations has run on most of the crimes for which they’d be indicted. But it’s important to get the facts. Never before have high government officials colluded to frame an

2025/07/18

An alien ideology is entering American politics, and its threat cannot be dismissed. While our Constitution guarantees us a republican form of government, the tools of democracy can be exploited to render that asunder. Two major cities—New York and Minneapolis—now have candidates for Mayor running as avowed socialists under the Democratic party. They have every likelihood of success. That they call themselves Democratic Socialists is of no comfort. The Venezuelan, Cuban, and China

About thirteen hundred workers were recently laid off from the State Department. X was full of emotional videos, recording diplomats gathered in the lobby to applaud, hug, and weep with their departing colleagues. Americans might wonder where similar coverage was for private sector workers when Joe Biden shut down construction of the Keystone Pipeline. Or why no tears were shed for small businesses destroyed by covid lockdowns The State Department’s hysteria is even more ridiculous in context

He was the towering preacher of his age. John Fullerton MacArthur, Jr., known to so many as “Pastor John,” has died, after more than a half-century of faithful preaching. John McArthur was the son and grandson of preachers. He became pastor of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California just as the state was exploding. John was a master expositor of Scripture, and his straightforward preaching built his church, then built a larger preaching ministry, then a vast reach by radio, and

Ed Morrissey: The Pardons Are Only the Entree

2025/07/15

Did Joe Biden decide who received pardons and commutations? The New York Times cast fresh doubt on the legitimacy of thousands of clemency actions this week. Biden refuted allegations that he didn’t authorize the auto-pen for every pardon issued at the end of his term. However, the Times reviewed e-mails during the post-election period, and discovered that aides compiled the pardon lists and then affixed Biden’s signature to most of them with the mechanical device. It included a

Elon Musk is starting a third party evidently, seemingly out of pique with Donald Trump. About this, a few things. Good luck with it having any traction whatsoever. When a strong conservative’s picking up the pieces and cobbling together a new coalition of conservatives and former Democrats, one John Anderson tried to run against him with a message of social liberalism and economic austerity Just Like Musk. We remember Ronald Reagan, John Anderson is a distant memory, if of any memory. Second,

2025/07/11

For nine years, the people who put together a grand hoax based on a campaign dirty trick, have never been held accountable. A new CIA review concludes that American intelligence knew that the Steele Dossier was baseless, and yet then Director John Brennan insisted on using it to conclude that Russia had interfered with the 2016 election to benefit Donald Trump. However, Brennan directly contradicted that finding in testimony before Congress. He claimed that “it was not in any way used as a

After Texas floods claimed the lives of Americans including seven- and eight-year-old girls, discourse on social media illuminated something about the state of our nation. And it’s not heartening. Some on the left jumped to politicize the tragedy. Commentators like Obama advisor David Axelrod linked the disaster to Trump administration government cuts. The claims were false. The National Weather Service office had extra staff on duty and issued warnings well in advance. But that’s not

“Let your “yes” be yes and your “no” be no,” the apostle James wrote to the church in Jerusalem. Too often, politicians forget this simple wisdom. Donald Trump is not among them. The lesson of Trump’s second term is that he rarely bluffs when it counts, and we have seen results in recent weeks in every arena. He warned Academia that he would enforce the law and Supreme Court decisions on civil rights and DEI, and Harvard has learned the hard way that he was

Seth Liebsohn: Socialism in America

2025/07/08

Socialism is planting itself firmly in America—and the Democratic party is its cultivator. The same week Tim Walz said socialism is nothing more than neighborliness, Kamala Harris chose him as her running mate. Today, the Democratic party’s largest rallies are headlines by self-described socialists. In New York City, an avowed socialist is on path to becoming its next mayor. Zohran Mamdani is on record aping Marx and Lenin, saying his end goal is “seizing the means of

President Trump’s supporters have been frustrated with lawfare 2.0. Left-wing lawyers slowed his agenda by finding federal judges to impose nationwide injunctions against Trump’s executive orders. That ended with the close of this term. Although the Supreme Court didn’t rule on the merits of the Trump order on birthright citizenship, Justice Amy Coney Barrett, writing for a 6-3 majority, ruled that injunctions should focus on relief only for the specific plaintiffs at hand.

Seth Liebsohn: Taking Up the Challenges of Our Day

2025/07/04

The great political scientist Harry Jaffa wrote on our bicentennial: In 1776 the United States was nothing, promising to become everything; having become everything, it now promises to become nothing. This is even truer today, on the cusp of our 250th anniversary. A new Gallup poll reveals a record-low percentage of Americans proud of America, dragged down by our youth and only 36 percent of Democrats being proud of America. This was all foreseeable. For years, our schools have taught that America
