In a move that common sense Americans are hailing as a victory for personal freedom and military readiness, the U.S. Army has begun reenlisting soldiers discharged for refusing the COVID-19 vaccine following an executive order from President Donald Trump. Signed just days after his inauguration, Trump’s directive demanded the rehiring of these troops—whom he called “patriots”—along with back pay for their time away. As of Monday, over 23 soldiers have rejoined the ranks, with three returning to active duty and more than 20 reentering the National Guard or Reserves. Yet, the fine print of the Pentagon’s implementation reveals a less generous reality than some might have hoped.

While the latest aviation safety issues and accidents over the last few months scare some, to seasoned professionals the aviation tragedies and near misses do not come as a surprise. The only question is: Why did it take so long?
There’s a long list of safety failures in the airline industry. United Airlines B777 plunged to the Pacific during climb in 2023, and the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA), United, and the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) didn’t investigate it for months. A 265-pound main tire fell off a B777 taking off out of Los Angeles; it fell from over 200 feet — still spinning — into an airport parking lot.

In the dumpy little borough of Millbourne, Pennsylvania, three elected Democrats cheated in the 2021 election in almost every imaginable way. Their candidate, one of the three cheaters, still lost his bid for mayor by some 30 votes. Two are still in office as of April 4, according to a phone call to the borough hall.
The three pleaded guilty April 1 to a host of election fraud offenses at separate hearings before United States District Judge Harvey Bartle III.
To examine their scheme is to see in play many of the red flags election integrity experts have warned about. It is a textbook for cheaters to study,

Mainstream journalists spent the last four years "speaking truth to power" by helping Democrats lie to the American people about the extent of Joe Biden's cognitive decline. The truth can finally be told now that the election is over.
The first of several books about the Democratic Party's scandalous cover up, Fight: Inside the Wildest Battle for the White House by Jonathan Allen and Amie Parnes, came out earlier this month. Excerpts from the upcoming titles, such as Uncharted: How Trump Beat Biden, Harris, and the Odds in the Wildest Campaign in History by Chris Whipple, have leaked to the press in an effort to juice sales.

Camping World CEO Marcus Lemonis is not backing down on keeping his huge American flags flying high over his company’s locations.
The RV dealer has been faced with lawsuits from municipalities in several areas due to the size of the flags, but Lemonis is not letting that deter him, Fox Business reported on Saturday.
The most recent actions have come from officials in Greenville, North Carolina, and Sevierville, Tennessee.
During an interview on Fox & Friends, Lemonis, who said the flags have been flying for 20 years, added, “This flag is not coming down. This is the third city in the last several years that tried to sue us to take the flag

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the Trump administration is planning to boost U.S. manufacturing employment with policies meant to steer laid-off federal workers into factories.
In an interview with Tucker Carlson published Friday on the social platform X, the Treasury secretary said he believed the U.S. had enough workers to fill thousands of manufacturing jobs Trump hopes to create through steep import taxes.
“On one side, the president is reordering trade,” Bessent said. “On the other side, we are shedding excess labor in the federal government, and bringing down federal borrowings.”
“That will give us the labor that we need for the new manufacturing,” Bessent continued,

The National Weather Service is no longer providing language translations of its products, a change that experts say could put non-English speakers at risk of missing potentially life-saving warnings about extreme weather.
The weather service has “paused” the translations because its contract with Lilt, an artificial intelligence company, has lapsed, NWS spokesman Michael Musher said. He declined further comment.
Lilt, an artificial intelligence company, began providing translations in late 2023, replacing manual translations that the weather service had said were labor-intensive and not sustainable and eventually. It eventually provided them in Spanish, Chinese, Vietnamese, French and Samoan.
The contract lapse comes

Here we go.
We have just 576 days until Tuesday, November 3rd, 2026, when the midterm elections will occur in the United States of America. In the state of Michigan, we will not only have statewide elections for Michigan Governor, Secretary of State, and Attorney General, but also a United States Senate seat is opening up because current Senator Gary Peters has decided to throw in the towel and call it a career in the upper chamber.
Time flies when you're having fun.
I don't know if I can say as predicted, but possibly as expected, current Congressman John James (who, by the way, is the only Republican Congressman I've ever had

If you’ve read “Hillbilly Elegy” or seen the movie — or if you’re familiar with Vice President JD Vance’s story in any way — you’re aware of the struggles that his mother, Beverly Aikins, has had with substance abuse. Her addiction loomed over so many areas of her life, but she has managed to triumph over it. She reached the ten-year milestone of sobriety at the beginning of this year.
Her 10th anniversary of sobriety fell on the day before the inauguration, which was also her birthday. She attended the inauguration and spoke at an event in Ohio the night before. In February, Navigating Addiction hosted a Zoom celebration

Now that Joe Biden is out of the White House and the Democratic Party has all but tossed him aside like yesterday’s news, the media has suddenly discovered its courage. After years of running cover, they’ve now permitted themselves to report on the very corruption they actively ignored: the corruption of the Biden crime family.
A bombshell letter that the New York Times obtained through a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request reveals exactly how Hunter Biden was peddling influence while his father served as Vice President.
The State Department, in a completely unsurprising move, had withheld this damaging evidence until after Joe Biden dropped out of the race and endorsed

Nearly 70 countries have reached out after President Donald Trump unveiled his “Liberation Day” tariffs last week, Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said on Monday.
That estimate comes after Bessent and other Trump administration officials stated over the weekend that more than 50 nations had contacted the United States to initiate negotiations on trade.
“I can tell you that there are 50, 60, maybe almost 70 countries now who have approached us,” Bessent said during an interview with Larry Kudlow on Fox Business.

Former President Joe Biden used a decaying New Hampshire bridge to sell his massive infrastructure package in 2021, but the bridge is still in poor condition years later despite the bill unleashing billions of dollars in spending.
Biden stood in front of the rusty metal bridge carrying Route 175 over New Hampshire’s Pemigewasset River in November 2021 as he talked up the promise of the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), a $1.2 trillion law meant to shore up America’s physical infrastructure. Even though the bill which Biden signed that same month has pumped billions of dollars across the country, the New Hampshire bridge remains
