  • Gulf Leaders Didn’t Want the Iran War. They Need Trump to Win It Anyway.

    03/26/2026 8:55:30 PM PDT · by MinorityRepublican
    Throughout four weeks of war, Iran has continued to make the United States’ Gulf partners pay a price for Operation Epic Fury and Israel’s Operation Roaring Lion. The Iranians have fired thousands of missiles and dronesat their neighbors, with the United Arab Emirates (UAE) bearing the brunt of the assault. There is also significant damage to energy infrastructure in Bahrain, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia. From the first days of the conflict, part of the Islamic Republic’s strategy was immediately clear: inflict significant pain on Bahrain, Kuwait, Qatar, and Saudi Arabia so that they would in turn pressure the United States...

    The Royal Navy was facing growing criticism over its effectiveness as Defence Secretary John Healey struggled to say how many warships it has. The Cabinet minister came under fire after been grilled on how many frigates there are in the navy as he took to the airwaves to say British forces may now intercept Russian “shadow fleet” vessels in the Channel. “We have...we have...we have...we have...we have...we have 17 frigates and destroyers,” he told LBC Radio. “It’s down from 23 at the end of the last Labour government.”

    Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) and Rep. Greg Casar (D-TX) introduced legislation on Thursday requiring professional sports team owners to give local governments and investors a chance to buy their teams before relocating. Dubbed the Home Team Act, the bill would limit team owners from moving their franchise across state lines or into new metro areas without first giving local investors the opportunity to purchase the team. It would require owners to provide at least a year’s notice before relocating. During the one-year notice period, local communities would have the opportunity to purchase the team at a fair market price. Sanders...

    As she accepted the award for Artist of the Year at the 2026 iHeartRadio Music Awards tonight, Taylor Swift chose not to further spotlight her hit album The Life of a Showgirl but, instead, offered some revealing advice to emerging artists. Perhaps her most poetic quote of the night soon followed: “I’m a firm believer that anything you feed your mind, it will internalize,” she told the crowd. “Anything you feed the internet, it will attempt to kill. And I don’t want that for your dreams.” Swift arrived at the ceremony this evening with nine nominations, and by the time...

    UK Daily Mail ^ | Published: 20:33 EDT, 26 March 2026 | ALEX RASKIN,
    The parents of Philadelphia Phillies third baseman Alec Bohm used limited liability companies to funnel millions of dollars out of his financial accounts for their own use, according to a lawsuit obtained by the Daily Mail. 'Though Alec's investigation into the status of his assets remains on-going and is far from complete, an initial investigation leads Alec to believe and, therefore, aver that [his parents] Daniel and Lisa misappropriated a very large sum of money from Alec,' read the complaint. In total, Alec claims his parents tried to 'freeze' him out of four LLCs as they 'converted a sizeable amount'...

    South Sudan and Mauritius have both announced measures restricting electricity consumption due to the fuel crisis triggered by the US and Israel's war in Iran, which is also affecting other countries across Africa. South Sudan has begun rationing electricity in the capital, Juba, while Mauritius has imposed restrictions to reduce wastage especially in high-power consumption areas. On Wednesday, Juba's main electricity distributor, Jedco, said parts of the city would start experiencing daily power cuts on a rotational basis. "Due to the ongoing Iran-US conflict... Jedco must proactively manage its available energy reserves... we are prioritising a strategic rationing of power,"...

    On Tuesday night, Democrats in Florida flipped a Republican-held seat in Senate District 14 and another in House District 87 — home to President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence. The latter was an especially impressive result, as HD-87 voted for Trump by an 11-point margin in 2024. These wins brought the Democrats’ total state-legislative flips during the President’s second term up to 12. They also provide the latest evidence that a “blue wave” is building ahead of the November midterm elections. Across all special elections held since the start of 2025, the average swing has been a massive 14 points toward...

    U.S. dollar bills will bear President Donald Trump's signature to mark the 250th anniversary of American independence, the Treasury Department said, a first for a sitting president. Trump's signature will be placed on all U.S. paper currency and will replace the Treasurer of the United States' signature on U.S. money for the first time in 165 years. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said the move will recognize the Trump administration's "historic achievements."

    Iran has likely earned $139 million per day by selling its flagship Iran Light crude so far in March, according to Bloomberg calculations based on export estimates by Tankertrackers.com and prices for Iranian Light. The estimated daily revenues were nearly $25 million higher compared to the average of $115 million daily proceeds from Iranian Light in February, according to Bloomberg's calculations. Iran is benefiting in several ways from the Hormuz crisis. First, its tankers are transiting the Strait of Hormuz while most other Gulf oil supply is still trapped. Then, the massive supply shock from the Middle East has hiked...

    WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (CN) — A federal judge shot down a seven-year case Thursday that claimed that North Carolina’s voter ID requirements target Black and Hispanic voters and are burdensome. The North Carolina State Conference of the NAACP and several of its chapters first claimed in 2018 that a law requiring photo ID to vote disproportionately impacts minority voters, arguing it violates section two of the Voting Rights Act and the 14th and 15th Amendments, imposing burdens on the right to vote that the state can’t justify. The defendants, including Senate President Pro Tempore Phil Berger and former state Speaker of...

EU ratification of last year’s agreement between the US president and European Commission president Ursula von der Leyen has been delayed by several issues, including Trump’s threats to invade Greenland.

    A good government group filed a formal bar complaint against former FBI Director Christopher Wray on Thursday for his role in greenlighting the Biden administration’s Arctic Frost lawfare against Donald Trump, The Federalist has learned. The complaint asks the D.C. Bar to investigate the former director for potential violations of existing bar rules governing licensed D.C. attorneys. “The common theme of those targeted by Arctic Frost was their connection to President Trump, the chief political rival to Joe Biden at the time. Wray’s involvement warrants further inquiry to determine if any professional conduct rules were violated during the course of...

    Americans are now seeing ICE agents as they shuffle through these historically long airport lines, not arresting and kidnapping! people, but handing out water bottles and shaking hands with the citizens they work to protect. The flame is burning at both ends for the Left: they’re defending illegal criminals at the expense of Americans, while ICE gets a PR boost for dissolving an airport bottleneck that Democrats created. ICE deployed to Atlanta, Chicago, and Houston has drastically improved security wait times — and more importantly, Americans are meeting these officers in the flesh, share a laugh, and realize that maybe...
