Even as Christianity shows signs of regaining some cultural ground after years of steady decline, other socio-political religious movements are quietly but rapidly expanding across the United States. While Religiously Unaffiliated (atheists, agnostics, and “nones”) is the growing category overall, according to this article by Quora, Hinduism is also “quietly expanding by immigration.”
Ever wonder why the U.S. exists as a free nation today? Spoiler: France played the hero in our Revolutionary War. Without their weapons, cash, troops, and that epic naval win at Yorktown, the British likely would’ve steamrolled us. It wasn’t just charity—it was a smart strategy to weaken a rival, and it worked, birthing a democracy that changed the world.
Now, in 2026, with U.S.-Israeli strikes having taken out Ali Khamenei and key regime targets, crippling Iran’s nuclear ambitions and military reach—could America be stepping up as ‘France’ for the Iranian people?
Last week, in this column, I wrote of New York City MayorZohran Mamdani’s decision to be sworn into office with his right hand placed on the Quran. I then asked some questions every logical observer should ask: Does Mr. Mamdani believe what this book teaches? For example, does he believe in its explicit endorsements of child slavery, forced marriage, institutionalized misogyny, forced conversions, capital punishment for sexual immorality and the beheadings of nonbelievers?… Continue Reading
Last week, Zohran Mamdani was sworn in as the 112th mayor of New York City. Mr. Mamdani is a “socialist democrat.” He doesn’t hide it. In fact, he campaigned openly as a neo-Marxist proponent of wealth redistribution, government-run grocery stores, government-owned housing and government-controlled transportation.
Mr. Mamdani is a graduate of the Frankfurt School of critical theory. He believes in the intersectional conflict of the proletariat versus the bourgeoisie and the utopian dreams of no borders, no private property and no possessions.… Continue Reading
If recent events don’t prove to you that Islam is now the No. 1 enemy of the civilized world, then you are blind, deaf and dumb.
Consider the following.
In Germany, multiple Christmas markets were effectively shut down by thousands of Muslims seeking to intimidate Christians who simply wanted to celebrate “peace on earth and goodwill toward men.”
In Paris, the annual New Year’s Eve festival was canceled because of credible Muslim terrorist threats.… Continue Reading
Over the course of a single day this month, a pattern repeated itself across the West. Two Muslims murdered at least 15 people at a Hanukkah celebration in Sydney. Five Muslims were arrested for plotting an attack on a Christmas market in Germany. French authorities canceled a concert in Paris due to credible threats of an Islamist terror attack. Two Iowa National Guardsmen in Syria were murdered by an Islamist while we play footsie with an illegitimate regime.… Continue Reading
It has been said that the best predictor of future behavior is always past behavior and that if you want to know what your neighbor is going to do tomorrow, it would be wise to pay attention to what he has already done. In the words of Sun Tzu: “Know your enemy” if you want to avoid the “peril of a hundred of battles.”
In light of recent atrocities, including the massacre of Jews in Australia and the butchery of Christians in Nigeria, as well as the shootings on the campus of Brown University, maybe it’s time we start acknowledging what we know about this enemy that seems so hell-bent on destroying us.… Continue Reading
If anyone from a backward and unstable country could be vetted for anti-American hostility, it would have been someone like Rahmanullah Lakanwal, the Afghan national who allegedly shot two National Guardsmen in Washington, D.C., the day before Thanksgiving. He had been vetted by the CIA, worked with our military in Afghanistan, and was later approved for asylum alongside his wife and five children.
And still, he turned his gun on the very country that took him in.… Continue Reading
Investigative journalist Alex Newman outlines how Venezuela has become a dangerous hub for a broader communist alliance threatening U.S. national security. He explains that Venezuela itself is weak militarily, but operates as a “tentacle of a massive beast” made up of communist regimes, drug cartels, Islamist terror networks, and globalist actors — all working together to undermine the United States.
Newman traces the origins of this movement to the 1990 São Paulo Forum, an alliance linking Cuba, Brazil, Nicaragua, Venezuelan leadership, and Colombian narco-terrorists, all supported by Russia, China, and Iran.… Continue Reading
While the country has witnessed many funerals of national prominence, I think it’s fair to say that few have carried the kind of attention, emotion, and gravity as Charlie Kirk’s memorial service Sunday. And for those with eyes to see and ears to hear, it revealed a striking contrast between humanity’s two most influential faiths.
In the wake of losing her husband in the most brutal and public of ways, Erika Kirk stood before a grieving crowd and, as a Christian clinging to her faith, spoke words that sounded impossible:
On the cross, our Savior said: ‘Father, forgive them, for they know not what they do.’
