What makes America great?

Some attribute American greatness to the brilliant system of government inaugurated two and a half centuries ago.

Fifty-three out of the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence were Christians who believed that “God who gave us life gave us liberty” and endowed us “with certain unalienable rights” as Thomas Jefferson so eloquently stated. They developed a political and economic system that reflected this Judeo-Christian belief.

You’re not ready to become a mother.

I wasn’t “ready” when I became one at 29. I definitely wasn’t ready to be married at 22, either. Happily, I did it all anyway. And then I watched as I steadily grew into these roles, finding my footing with a little grace, a lot of missteps, and more joy than I would’ve ever expected.

The veterans of the U.S. Women’s National Soccer Team are at it again. In a move that surprised absolutely no one, retired stars Abby Wambach, Julie Foudy, and the ever-defiant Megan Rapinoe spent the final week of February 2026 lashing out at the U.S. Men’s Hockey Team for the “crime” of showing a modicum of respect to President Donald Trump following their Olympic gold medal win.

Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) arrested an illegal alien from Mexico on Thursday convicted of first-degree murder in California, the Department of Homeland Security told The Daily Wire.

Authorities arrested more than two dozen additional people for their alleged participation in an anti-ICE mob that stormed a Minnesota church service last month.
