The Senate on Monday confirmed Stephen Miran, chairman of the White House Council of Economic Advisers, to a seat on the Federal Reserve Board, giving President Donald Trump an influential voice inside the central bank at a critical moment for monetary policy.

Republicans had recently streamlined Senate procedures to speed consideration of Trump’s nominees, allowing Miran to take his seat in time for the Fed’s two-day meeting that begins Tuesday. Democrats opposed Miran in lock-step, appearing to cast their votes less as…

The world is “a better place” without Charlie Kirk, according to Virginia Imam Ismail Saleem, who accused the recently slain conservative activist of having died “disrespecting black people” and thus unworthy of sympathy, as he declared that the Turning Point USA founder is “getting what he deserves” and the grief of his supporters “makes me smile.” In a Friday sermon in Norfolk, Virginia, Islamic preacher Ismail Saleem spoke to the congregation, slamming both Kirk and those expressing sympathy over his death, accusing mourners of misplaced morality. “You see, the problem today is with empathy.

Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. “Charlie…

Sen. Jim Banks (R-IN) believes it’s time American companies exploiting H-1B visas to import cheap foreign labor put American workers first.
