Unless you’re chronically online, you’ve probably never heard of the Gen Z influencer “Clavicular.” Within a year, his fame will likely fade, and within five, he’ll seem like a fever dream. But he matters now because he represents something deeper: a generation of young men who have abandoned traditional masculinity for self-destructive vanity.

If voter ID requirements truly threaten civil rights, it follows that many other civil rights are also threatened. Identification is needed throughout American society, including for transportation, accommodation, and housing — historical battlegrounds for civil rights.   

We’re repeatedly told that transgender-identifying individuals are not prone to commit gun violence. Major outlets — including the The New York Times, AP, CNN, and The Washington Post — publish articles arguing that transgender attacks are extremely rare and run headlines calling out conservative bias: “The right exploits Nashville shooting to escalate anti-trans rhetoric” and “Conservatives use Minneapolis shooting in anti-transgender campaigns.”

“Anything you can do, I can do better,” the famous duet from the musical “Annie Get Your Gun,” comes to mind as Republicans in blue states watch their red congressional districts disappear because Democrats turned the tables on President Donald Trump’s plan to push mid-decade redistricting to make it easier for the GOP to hold the House majority. Once Republican states decided to employ this strategy, Democrats would have been derelict not to do the same.

There is a growing cost-of-living issue that Republicans would be wise to confront if they hope to have any success in winning elections this November.

Elon Musk has joined a chorus of conservatives pushing for Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., to force Democrats into a talking filibuster in order to pass the SAVE America Act, which requires proof of U.S. citizenship and photo ID to vote in federal elections.

On the same day congressional Democrats refused to publicly affirm their commitment to American citizens over illegal aliens, the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) arrested illegal aliens convicted of murder, sexual assault, and other brutal crimes.

President Donald Trump’s 2026 State of Union was one for the history books, but not simply because it was the longest annual speech a joint Congress has heard in decades. It could turn out to be one of the most identifiable forms of momentum Republicans can harness to perform well at the polls come November.

The Washington Post’s Isaac Arnsdorf wrote that President Donald Trump’s State of the Union address took a “darker” turn when the president asked members of Congress to affirm that the federal government’s primary responsibility is to protect Americans rather than illegal aliens.

In the approximately millionth article by a left-wing hack comparing Trump and his followers to Nazis, Tom Nichols, whom Wikipedia laughably describes as an “academic,” resorted to the last refuge of the limp-wristed scoundrel — fashion criticism.

As U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) goes about its lawful and necessary role of deporting illegal aliens, left-leaning leaders are doing everything they can to frustrate and thwart the enforcement of federal law. That is a serious problem.
