Fifteen Texas officials, including a county judge, city council members, and a former San Antonio mayoral candidate, have been indicted in one of the largest vote harvesting cases in recent state history. The Frio County indictments prove that organized election fraud is real, and that it targets the voters least equipped to fight back.
Senator Graham's End Sanctuary Cities Act would jail officials who obstruct federal immigration enforcement. With over 200 sanctuary cities refusing to cooperate with ICE, and real people dying as a result, the real outrage is that we need this law at all. The Constitution isn't a menu. You don't get to skip the parts you find inconvenient.
Democrats championed nonpartisan redistricting in Virginia. Now they want to scrap it and redraw the maps 10-1 in their favor. Constitutional principles, it turns out, have expiration dates.
The U.S. Supreme Court is set to hear Watson v. Republican National Committee, a case that could redefine what “Election Day” means nationwide. At stake is whether ballots must be received by Election Day or may arrive afterward — a decision with major implications for election law, voter confidence, and the uniformity of federal elections.
Politicians don't get to decide what speech might make them look bad. That's not how the First Amendment works. Political satire has been protected since before the ink dried on the Bill of Rights, and it'll be protected long after today's thin-skinned legislators are retired to their private islands, made affordable with proceeds from “lucky investments” of their government salaries.
FBI Director Kash Patel’s recent comments about firearms at protests sparked a needed reminder: the Bill of Rights isn’t a buffet. Carrying a firearm at a peaceful protest remains constitutionally protected, while criminal behavior, like interfering with law enforcement, brings its own legal consequences. The danger lies in blurring that line. When officials imply that lawful carry equals a threat, they unintentionally hand ammunition to those eager to chip away at constitutional rights.
I am proud to highlight our Defenders Initiative—a nationwide effort to assist, encourage, and recognize sheriffs and law enforcement officers who faithfully honor their constitutional oath to protect and serve. In an era when the rule of law is often challenged, and when the leftist ACLU is trying to intimidate local law enforcement and local officials, we proudly come alongside these men and women who stand as guardians of public safety and defenders of the Constitution.
Commemorating Constitution Day recognizes the formal completion of the Constitution of the United States on September 17, 1787, when 39 Constitutional Convention delegates signed the document. Over the next nine months, states worked to ratify the Constitution, with the nine necessary states making it official on June 21, 1788, with New Hampshire’s approval. By May 29, 1790, all 13 states had ratified the guiding principles for the new government.
In 2002, I became the first (and possibly last) Director of School Choice at the U.S. Department of Education. President George W. Bush had assembled a great team of reformers who sought to empower parents and children through expansion of school choice and a reduction in bureaucratic nonsense. What did I learn in those three and a half years? The agency should be bulldozed. It is a gigantic cesspool of apparatchiks who are sucking up money that should go to the students.
ACRU and other prominent conservative leaders delivered a letter to Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) demanding reform of the oft-abused FISA program, demanding the addition of two key amendments designed to implement vital protections against spying on American citizens without warrants.
