Following Robert Francis “Beto” O’Rourke’s unhinged outburst at a Wednesday press conference held by Governor Greg Abbott, Townhall’s Julio Rosas caught up with Uvalde Mayor Don McLaughlin to get his response — and McLaughlin didn’t hold back in his appraisal of O’Rourke or those who’ve apparently criticized the small city’s mayor for ordering the Democrat candidate for…
The Washington Post has not been having a good few days on Twitter. As I covered on Tuesday, they got George Floyd’s cause of death wrong in a tweet that remained online for 40 minutes, before they sought to cover up with a piss poor explanation. Early on Wednesday morning, in a tweet that as of…
When a deranged 18-year-old stormed into a Uvalde, Texas, elementary school — after reportedly killing his own grandmother — and opened fire, there was apparently no one on hand to stop his rampage. No one, that is, until Border Patrol agents in the small city of around 16,000 residents heard of the unfolding horror and…
What a bunch of babies. It’s also totally insane. To go against us makes you a domestic terrorist. That’s the position of the National School Boards Association.

On Thursday morning in a Senate Armed Services Committee hearing, Energy Secretary Jennifer Granholm repeatedly refused to acknowledge that the Biden administration’s war on U.S. energy had caused gas prices to rise since the president took office and started cracking down on domestic energy production. Even after Republican Senator Josh Hawley of Missouri laid out…
NBC News stumbled into some truth this week with a story published Thursday morning detailing a closer look at Hunter Biden’s foreign business dealings, and it’s more bad news for Joe Biden as the president’s past claims about his son’s income sources get debunked. According to NBC News, which didn’t hold back in its description of…
U.S. Customs and Border Protection encountered another historic number of illegal immigrants during the month of April as the crisis at the U.S.-Mexico border shows no sign of slowing down.

Texas Governor Greg Abbott is blasting the Biden administration for prioritizing a steady supply of baby formula for illegal immigrants while American families face bare store shelves. “Children are our most vulnerable, precious Texans and deserve to be put first. Yet, President Biden has turned a blind eye to parents across America who are facing the nightmare…
The January 6 select committee is at it again when it comes to targeting members of Congress. Earlier on Thursday, five Republican House members were served with subpoenas, including House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (CA) and Reps. Scott Perry (PA), Jim Jordan (OH), Andy Biggs (AZ), and Mo Brooks (AL). As the select committee itself points out,…
Of course, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen would take this position on abortion. I don’t know why she decided to weigh in on the issue. She has bigger fish to fry, like getting inflation under control, but she noted how women could be impacted negatively if Roe v. Wade is overturned. She declared it could set…
The mainstream media has not been known for its neutrality when it comes to reporting on the issue of abortion or its pro-life opponents.

Chief Justice John Roberts released a statement Tuesday morning confirming that the Supreme Court was launching a full, formal investigation into the source of Monday’s leak of the draft opinion showing an overturn of Roe v.

Before departing for a trip to Alabama Tuesday morning, President Joe Biden responded to new revelations the Supreme Court plans to return abortion regulation to the states. The information came from a leaked draft of an opinion from Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization late Monday night. “We do not know whether this draft is genuine, or whether it…
It’s no secret that the U.S.-Mexico border is the opposite of “closed” or under-control as Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas has insisted. In addition to being a national security crisis, Biden’s border crisis is also a humanitarian and public health disaster for Americans as well as migrants trying to take advantage of Biden’s lax immigration…
As Townhall has been exposing, the Department of Homeland Security’s new disinformation governance board and its leader Nina Jankowicz are set to be yet another Democrat big government assault on free speech aimed at criminalizing dissent in order to protect their deeply flawed version of reality. Jankowicz is known for her mess of TikTok songs…
The national average price for a gallon of regular gasoline is expected to creep up in the coming months as consumers head off on their summer vacations. Patrick De Haan, head of petroleum analysis for GasBuddy, issued an outlook in March of what prices might look like over the summer. The national average for a regular…
President Trump is back on social media, sending his first message from Truth Social, the social media platform he launched last month but which has been beta testing since February. “I’M BACK! #COVFEFE,” Trump posted along with a photo of himself in front of Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, Florida. The hashtag was in reference to…
Eagle Pass, TX – Upon taking office in January 2021, President Joe Biden halted construction on the U.S. southern border wall, which greatly helps Border Patrol and local law enforcement cut down on illegal activity.

Del Rio, TX – Troopers from the Texas Department of Public Safety and members of the Texas National Guard completed a successful mission Sunday night after arresting five illegal immigrants from Honduras.
