By Jeffrey Lord, The American Spectator - President Trump has made history — major league world history. One can only pray that the Middle East is on its way out of the horrific decades of mass violence that arose with the formalization of the Jewish state in May of 1948... All of which leads to the obvious question: Can the rest of the world imagine a world without ongoing violence in the Middle East?... The answer to that question is, one suspects, that it has taken President Trump, the man who has made a career of envisioning everything from buildings to the results of presidential elections to peace agreements that the world’s collective political leaders could not envision themselves.

By Gregory Lyakhov, Patriot Post - While Democrats try to deny it, the reason Washington is shut down comes down to a single question: Should Medicaid, a program meant for low-income Americans, be used to subsidize healthcare for people who entered the country illegally?... The fight began with the passage of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act earlier this year. One of its key reforms ended a Medicaid loophole that allowed states to pass the cost of covering illegal immigrants on to federal taxpayers. The law required states to pay those costs themselves, cutting off a practice that blurred eligibility lines and drained billions.
