The latest IRS data makes one thing clear. The United States is undergoing a massive redistribution of wealth between states, and it is being driven almost entirely by tax policy. California lost $11.9 billion and New York lost $9.9 billion in income in a single year, while Florida gained $20.6 billion. This is not random migration. This is capital responding to incentives. States like Florida, Texas, and Tennessee have positioned themselves as low-tax environments, and they are now absorbing wealth at an unprecedented pace. Florida alone has become the primary destination for high-income earners exiting high-tax jurisdictions. What is important here…
The conflict in the Middle East is already starting to bite in Europe, as multiple Italian airports announced jet fuel rationing measures this week. Amid the growing backlog of ships refusing to cross the Strait of Hormuz — over concern that Islamist Iranian terrorists may fire from the coastline on their vessels or potentially run into the sea mines allegedly released by the regime in Tehran into the waterway — an energy crisis looms over import-heavy countries, such as those in much of Europe. Italian daily Corriere Della Sera reported that four airports in the north of the country have…
On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” host Larry Kudlow said that a reconciliation bill should “cut the capital gains inflation adjustment,” and also “probably should lower the marginal tax rates, at least for the middle-income brackets” in addition to fully funding DHS, including voter ID legislation, and including the supplemental spending bill and argued that a reconciliation bill is the only way to get all of this done. Kudlow said, [relevant remarks begin around 3:05] “We need to cut the capital gains inflation adjustment, that’s one thing. We probably should lower the marginal tax rates, at least…

On Monday’s broadcast of the Fox Business Network’s “Kudlow,” former Trump Economic Adviser Stephen Moore said that there should be tax cuts in the reconciliation bill and suggested using a tax on university endowments as a pay-for. After host Larry Kudlow said [relevant remarks begin around 3:05] that a reconciliation package should include some tax reform, Moore said, “Yeah. No question.” Moore added, “I’m in total agreement with you. If we’re going to do this new reconciliation bill, let’s do indexing of capital gains for inflation, let’s do all the things you were talking about, and let’s pay for it —…
Georgia lawmakers passed a bill that would expand the state’s Safe Haven law to allow baby box devices. Both the Georgia House and Senate passed House Bill 350 last week, 164-4 and 49-1, and sent the bill to Gov. Brian Kemp’s (R) desk, Local 3 News reported. If Kemp signs the bill, Georgia will join two dozen other states in allowing the devices as an option for the safe and legal surrender of newborns. Safe Haven Baby Boxes were created to deter parents from abandoning their newborns, potentially leaving them to die. Baby boxes are temperature-controlled incubators often built into exterior…
Berlin should not forget the lessons of World War II, the Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman has said Germany’s continued military buildup could lead to another tragedy on a global scale, Russian Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Maria Zakharova has warned.Last week, German media reported that male citizens who remain abroad for more than three months without prior approval could face penalties in line with a new requirement under the Military Service Modernization Act. The rule, which came into force on January 1, 2026, obliges German males between the ages of 17 and 45 to obtain permission before leaving the country for an…
Gaza did not become a laboratory of expulsion overnight. It was turned into one by planners, brokers, generals, travel agents, and politicians who looked at a trapped Palestinian population and saw not families rooted in a homeland, but a demographic obstacle to be thinned, rerouted, and erased. The history is not marginal to the zionist project. It sits inside Israel’s bureaucratic memory, its migration networks, and its long habit of dressing forced removal in the language of administration and opportunity.

On Monday’s broadcast of CNN’s “The Source,” Sen. Richard Blumenthal (D-CT) said that DHS Secretary Markwayne Mullin floating removing customs from sanctuary cities is “another reason why we need to impose reforms on ICE and the Customs and Border Patrol as part of any funding for DHS.” Guest host Dana Bash said, “I just want to quickly switch topics to something that the new Homeland Security Secretary, your former Senate colleague, Markwayne Mullin, said on television tonight. He floated the idea of forcing cities and states like yours in Connecticut, which are considered — which are sanctuary cities, to cooperate…
