Ryan Wesley Routh, 58, is facing two federal gun charges after authorities say he may have been planning to assassinate former President Donald Trump. The investigation is continuing and more charges may be filed. Routh didn’t fire any shots, but cell phone data collected by police showed that he had situated himself in a wooded area near the Trump International Golf Club in West Palm Beach, Florida, for about 12 hours before a Secret Service agent...

The Jewish state is under no obligation to tolerate the intolerable. Israel is supposed to tolerate the intolerable. A terror group has launched thousands of missiles into the Jewish state over the last year — catalyzed by a hideous pogrom against Israel carried out by another terror group — and we are told that it is Israel, finally hitting back in earnest, that is dangerously escalating the situation. Since the Hamas atrocities on October 7, Lebanon...

President Joe Biden will attempt to square the diplomatic achievements and goals of his presidency with the grim reality of wars in the Middle East, Ukraine and Sudan during a major address Tuesday at the annual gathering of the United Nations General Assembly in New York, the final one of his presidency. With four months left in office, the speech is one of Biden’s few remaining opportunities to frame his foreign policy legacy in front of an audience...

Rep. Matt Gaetz, R-Fla., said he was informed by a whistleblower within the Biden-Harris administration that there are five different known "assassination teams" — "three inspired by other governments" — that are hunting Republican presidential nominee Donald Trump. Gaetz said the Department of Homeland Security was aware of the kill squads before the second assassination attempt on Trump last week in Florida. Gaetz made the assertion on Thursday on the "Human Events Daily" ...

“Vegas is where you get married, Reno is where you get divorced,” as the saying goes in the US state of Nevada. State law allowing some legal cases to be conducted more quickly and discreetly than elsewhere in the US means this relatively small city has served as the quiet backdrop to dramatic family fallout over a global media empire. Rupert Murdoch and his family flew in from all over the world to determine how the empire would be divided among his children when the 93-year-old...

Ukrainian president Volodymyr Zelensky is campaigning in Scranton, Pa.: Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelenskyy traveled to Pennsylvania on Sunday to visit a military facility in Lackawanna County that builds some of the equipment used in the weaponry his country is using in its war with Russia. Gov. Josh Shapiro, U.S. Sen. Bob Casey (D-Pa.), U.S. Rep. Matt Cartwright (D-8th District) and other local officials were on hand for Zelenskyy’s tour of the Scranton Army...

It is unusual for Volodymyr Zelensky to be quiet — whether in his former life as a comedian and actor or now as President of Ukraine. However, the Ukrainian leader has been abnormally close-mouthed of late, notably reticent to go into detail regarding the “victory plan” he intends to present to US President Joe Biden and American officials this week. Ukrainian sources have let on that the plan should “create such conditions and such an atmosphere that Russia will no...

Volodymyr Zelensky’s situation room, where the Ukrainian President monitors developments in his country’s war with Russia, is a windowless chamber, largely taken up by a rectangular conference table and ringed by blackened screens, deep inside the Presidential Administration Building, in central Kyiv. On a recent afternoon, as I sat inside, waiting for Zelensky, I heard his voice—a syrupy baritone, speckled with gravel—before he entered, dressed in his signature military-adjacent style: black T...

There's another big divide emerging in this election. This time it's between voters and economists, finds new polling from the Wall Street Journal. Why it matters: In their presidential campaigns, both Kamala Harris and Donald Trump are proposing economic policies that are really popular with voters. Mainstream economists, meanwhile, find these ideas "appalling," the Journal notes. Zoom in: 79% of voters like Trump and Harris's pitch to eliminate taxes on tips. Only 10...
