A social media satire claimed New York Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani canceled an oath-taking ceremony requiring him to pledge to “support and uphold” the U.S. Constitution. Evidently, the event will take place. But it’s no laughing matter that he can’t possibly make such a promise truthfully. In fact, both of Mamdani’s ideologies – Communism and sharia-supremacism…
Soviet Communist dictator Vladimir Lenin promised, “Give me four years to teach the children and the seed I have sown will never be uprooted.” New York Communist-Islamist Mayor-elect Zohran Mamdani reportedly is “all but assured” to entrust the teaching of his city’s children to former Congressman Jamaal Bowman. Such an appointment would be an early indicator of…
Last week, President Trump – to his great credit – resolved to punish “radical Islamists” in Nigeria responsible for the “mass slaughter” of Christians. In a social media post on October 31st, he declared,“The United States cannot stand by while such atrocities are happening in Nigeria, and numerous other Countries. We stand ready, willing, and…
One of the most time-tested principles in international affairs is the prescription “If you want peace, prepare for war.” Since he became Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth has been clear about the most serious threat against which we must prepare – namely, that posed by the Chinese Communist Party. The long-awaited National Defense Strategy reportedly…
Today, a tiny fraction of New York City voters will enable a “Trojan horse” to be wheeled into their mayor’s office in the person of the Democratic candidate, Zohran Mamdani. Worse yet, he may prove to be a horseman of the apocalypse. A recent, chilling VictoryCo.org webinar documented Mamdani’s ominous personification of the “Red-Green axis”…
In what may be the finest hour to date of his two presidencies, Donald Trump has pledged to counter the dire threat to civilization inherent in history’s greatest crime against humanity: the persecution of over 380 million Christians worldwide. The overwhelming majority of the acts of heavy persecution to which those followers of Jesus are subjected occur…
For thirty-three years, the United States has unilaterally refrained from conducting even very-low-yield underground tests of our aging arsenal of nuclear weapons. By relying on computer simulations and educated guesses – instead of actual, realistic experimentation, we have precluded the sort of modernization in which both Russia and China have engaged relentlessly, surely with the…
The meeting between President Trump and Chinese dictator Xi Jinping in South Korea is now in the past. Still in the future, and very much in doubt, is what will come of it. The President has characterized the meeting as “a 12” on a one-to-ten scale. He announced numerous initiatives designed to help: American manufacturers…
A chilling VictoryCo.org briefing yesterday raised an alarm about a mortal threat posed to America’s preeminent metropolis. According to four eminent experts, the predicted election of Democratic mayoral nominee Zohran Mamdani would put a man who adheres to several ideologies that call for the destruction of this country in charge of the security of its…
The ancient Chinese strategist, Sun Tse, had profound insights about The Art of War, including these: “If you know the enemy and know yourself, you need not fear the result of a hundred battles. If you know yourself but not the enemy, for every victory gained you will also suffer a defeat. If you know…
The China Matrix is a brilliant, and very timely, new book by Lee Smith. It chronicles how successive presidents of both parties and countless leaders of America’s business, political and other elites have subordinated national security and economic strength to the benefit of the Chinese Communist Party, and often their personal enrichment. Mr. Smith documents…
President Trump told Time Magazine that he will soon decide whether to press Israel to release Marwan Barghouti from prison. Doing so is being portrayed as a step towards an alternative to Hamas and consistent with our interests and efforts to promote peace in Gaza and regionally. In fact, unleashing Barghouti – a jihadist serving…
Last week, President Trump struck a blow for freedom against “global governance.” He rallied fifty-seven members of the International Maritime Organization to prevent for at least a year the imposition of “international taxation” on this and other sovereign nations. That’s the very good news. The bad news is that, to date, the United States has…
The so-called Fourth Plenum of the Chinese Communist Party now underway in Beijing may determine whether its dictator, Xi Jinping, retains absolute control – or is removed from power by the large numbers of Chinese military leaders and those of political factions who have suffered at his hands. Grounds for Xi’s removal include: his relentless…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. When is a deal not a deal? That question looms large in Israel at a moment when American envoys are pressing their hosts to comply with an agreement to cease fire in Gaza. That agreement, however, required Hamas to stop hostilities, disarm and give up power.…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. On Friday, our PresentDangerChina.org webinar stunningly documented the extent to which the Chinese Communist Party has long engaged in devastating economic warfare against America. It underscored the need, at long last, for a comprehensive and effective U.S. response above and beyond what President Trump has commendably…
“Global governance” is a seemingly benign euphemism for destroying our sovereignty and constitutional Republic. After all, if unelected, unaccountable elites and hostile international institutions can tell nations what to do, representative government here will eventually wither away, along with Americans’ freedoms. Today, the United States will be defending our founders’ principle of “no taxation without…
With Communist China’s announcement of an intention to impose sweeping new controls on the export and use of its “rare earth” and other critical materials, Beijing is manifestly waging economic war not just on us, but the whole world. In a somber press conference with Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent in Washington yesterday, Trade Representative Jamison…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Yesterday, Donald Trump posthumously awarded Charlie Kirk the Presidential Medal of Freedom. Among the many attributes that made Charlie so worthy of this recognition was his relentless defense of liberty and our God-given, unalienable right to it. In his final months, Charlie Kirk focused intensively on…
This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. A hallmark of Donald Trump’s presidencies has been his commitment that “promises made” will be “promises kept.” In recent days, he secured agreement to a twenty-point plan that promised a durable end to the war in Gaza. The question now is: Will that promise – and…
