WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court agreed on Monday to take up a Biden administration appeal over the regulation of difficult-to-trace ghost guns that had been struck down by lower courts. The justices by a 5-4 vote had previously intervened to keep the regulation in effect during the legal fight. Ghost guns, which lack serial numbers, have been turning up at crime scenes with increasing regularity. The regulation, which took effect in 2022, changed the definition of a firearm under federal law to include unfinished parts, like the frame of a handgun or the receiver of a long gun, so...

Brian Murphy (Senate Judiciary Committee/Twitter) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Senate Democrats hailed President Joe Biden’s pick for the U.S. District Court of Massachusetts as a committed advocate for criminal justice. As a defense attorney, Brian E. Murphy defended rapists and violent criminals while leading a firm that touted its ability to protect the "reputation" of convicted sex offenders. Murphy & Rudolf, a criminal defense firm Murphy founded in 2011, touts its "notable case results," including a dismissal of charges for clients accused of rape, child rape, and murder. In one post on its website, Murphy & Rudolf touts its "50 years of combined...

Watching Joe Scarborough’s Morning Joe is a front-row seat to the effects of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Scarborough suffered a humiliating meltdown in March after getting called out for lying about President Trump on X. Now, in his latest episode of unhinged anger, Scarborough rages that Trump supporters “hate America.” “What’s wrong with you? Who raised you? What history did you read? Where are you from? Because you may claim to be from where I’m from, but you were not raised by the same teachers I was raised by, and you don’t read,” Scarborough said. He was raised by teachers as...

Joe Biden delivered a stern warning to Israeli leaders on Wednesday, “Don’t move on Haifa!” Haifa is the third largest city in ISRAEL! Potato brain has no idea what he’s talking about. The man is lost. JOE BIDEN: “I made it clear to the Israelis — don’t move on Haifa!”

This is the most dangerous moment that we have seen in the Middle East in modern times. As you will see below, Israel has decided to hit Iran. There is still debate about whether it should be a devastating blow or a more limited strike. But in either case, the Iranians are pledging to retaliate. In fact, the Iranians are promising to respond to any attack with overwhelming force. Needless to say, that would certainly provoke another response from Israel. The cycle would continue until someone finally decides that enough is enough. But what if neither side backs down and...

Just hours after the unprecedented Iranian missile and drone attack against Israel, top Iranian military leaders threatened to launch even larger attacks if the Jewish state decides to launch a counterstrike. “Our response will be much larger than tonight’s military action if Israel retaliates against Iran,” the head of the Iranian military, Maj.-Gen. Mohammad Bagheri warned. The Israeli Air Force (IAF), the United States and other allies successfully neutralized about 99% of the 300 missiles and drones Tehran fired toward Israel in the early morning hours on Sunday Bagheri further warned the U.S. that Iran would attack U.S. military bases...

I have been sitting here trying to figure out what to write about what we just witnessed. Just like October 7th, the shocking attack on Israel that just took place altered the course of history. This was the first time that Iran ever attacked Israel directly, and I was flooded with emails by readers that were concerned about World War III. So now that the Iranian attack is over, what will Israel do now? That is the big question. If Israel directly attacks Iran, the Iranians will inevitably respond and the conflict could spiral out of control. But if the...

Are you a betting man? As we look at the next six to nine months, as Americans, we know the many possibilities surrounding the coming election. President Trump could be returned to office, or Joe Biden could remain in place, or one or both could somehow be replaced on their respective party’s tickets. Anything is possible. We see the polls, which say President Trump is ahead. We also know our history, the history of the American electorate often voting against their own interest, and we know of the corrupt political machines famous for fabricating votes and stealing elections. All the...

We reported how about the prior communication that the U.S. had allegedly received prior to Iran's attack on Israel, and it's been building into a real problem for them. I wrote Sunday morning on an NBC report that the Islamic Republic and the United States communicated about the matter for over two weeks: In back-channel communications with the U.S. over the past two weeks, Iran indicated it would retaliate against Israel but wanted to avoid an escalation that would lead to all-out war, U.S. officials said.The question now is whether Iran’s attack will be interpreted in the way Tehran has...

Iran’s Saturday attack against Israel has the airwaves and interwebs abuzz with speculation as to what is coming next in Middle Eastern geopolitics. Some have expressed fears that the situation could escalate into expanded military hostilities in the region. As the war in Gaza continues in full force, Iran’s potential involvement has led to fears of a broader military conflict. Indeed, Germany and France have issued statements urging their citizens in Iran to flee the country amid concerns over an Israeli counterstrike. However, there could be reason for hope that this situation won’t devolve into a hot war between Israel...

Overnight, the Israel Defense Forces conducted a targeted operation in the Al-Fara'a refugee camp, located north of Nablus, resulting in the death of a terrorist named Mohammed Omar Daraghmeh. The Palestinian Red Crescent reported that another terrorist was also killed, and four others were injured during the IDF's operation in the refugee camp near the Jordan Valley. Daraghmeh, associated with the Izz al-Din al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, had been sought by both Israel and the Palestinian Authority for several years. Known as "The Rock" in Tubas, a town in the West Bank, he was killed in his...

Hundreds of people gathered in Tehran's Palestine Square, waving Iranian and Palestinian national flags and shouting anti-Israel slogans on Sunday. Some demonstrators said the attack on the IRGC military facility in Damascus, Syria was a violation of Iran's national sovereignty. Iran's Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) released statements claiming it had launched "tens of missile and drones" and "successfully hit and destroyed" important Israeli military targets. The IRGC said the launches came in response to "numerous Israeli crimes." It also warned that any threat by the United States and Israel, or from any other country, would receive a "reciprocal and...

Boy, the Biden-Obama regime really, really hates Benjamin Netanyahu and Israel! According to reports coming from Israel and Turkey the Biden Administration provided guidance to Iran in its missile and drone strike against Israel. Why would Israel EVER trust the Biden regime again? The Jerusalem Post reported: Iran informed Turkey in advance of its planned operation against Israel, a Turkish diplomatic source told Reuters on Sunday, adding that Washington had conveyed to Tehran via Ankara that any action it took had to be “within certain limits.” Turkey, which has denounced Israel for its campaign on Gaza, said earlier on Sunday...
