Josh Hammer unpacks the decades-long rise of Communist China and explains why President Trump cannot now go wobbly when it comes to confronting and containing this preeminent civilizational foe. On the contrary, it must be all hands on deck for the United States to prevail in the China challenge.

Josh Hammer explains why yesterday's closed-door hearing on Capitol Hill confirms that the corporate media lied about Secretary of War Hegseth issuing a "kill order" on a narco-terrorist boat in the Caribbean Sea in early September. He didn't, as yesterday's testifying Navy admiral confirmed. In reality, the administration is simply acting to defend the American homeland and the American people—much as it is also doing when i...

Josh Hammer explains how "climate change" alarmism, which not so long ago was all the rage on the activist Left, has all but died as a political force. Why is that? Josh unpacks all the angles. But any which way one can approach it, the climate change jig is now up with the American people—and even for many leftist elites and elected Democrats themselves.

Also, Josh reviews the latest twists and turns in the ongoing Minnesota...

Josh Hammer explains again why Secretary of War Pete Hegseth is not a "war criminal," as the Left has ludicrously been suggesting. Why are leftists pushing this lie so hard? Hint: It has nothing to do with Hegseth himself or his actions, and everything to do with undermining President Trump's agenda every which way they possibly can.

Josh also tackles the latest silly controversy over President Trump's harsh words on Somali immigra...
