The U.S. government has recently served notice on Harvard and other academic institutions: They must stop ignoring the national security implications of having Communist Chinese and pro-terrorist students on campus. In explaining steps being taken to restrict or terminate visas for such individuals, the State Department is rightly noting that they …

Donald Trump prides himself on being a deal-maker. And he aspires to be a peacemaker. Consequently, he is pursuing an agreement whereby Iran’s mullahs would actually abandon their ambitions to acquire nuclear weapons – and thereby prevent another “endless” Mideast war. Mr. Trump’s courtiers insist that he’ll succeed where his predecessors have cons…

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. Suddenly, a rising chorus of Western nations is insisting that there must be a Palestinian state, right now. And the United Nations is pressing forward with a meeting next month to discuss this initiative, adding further legitimacy to what is, truly, a harebrained idea. Why the sudden furor? And…

During his first presidential campaign, Donald Trump pledged to defeat what he called the ideology of “radical Islamic terrorism.” Of late, his administration has been signaling a willingness to embrace its enablers and practitioners. That’s the unmistakable take-away from Mr. Trump’s visit to Qatar this month. After all, his hosts bankroll Sharia-…

Today we recognize and honor the sacrifice of all those in uniform who gave their lives for our country. It is impossible to overstate the debt we owe those men and women. Without their willingness to serve and die, the rest of us surely would not be living in the land of the free and the home of the brave. I would like on this occasion to thank as…

Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem informed Harvard yesterday that it can “no longer enroll foreign students” for “fostering anti-Semitism and violence” and “coordinating with the Chinese Communist Party on its campus.” The Secretary declared,“Let this serve as a warning to all universities and academic institutions across the country.” We mus…

The Conclave that made Cardinal Robert Prevost Pope Leo XIV was roiled by his predecessor’s betrayal of Catholics and other people of faith in Communist China. Pope Francis reportedly agreed to a toxic secret deal with the Chinese Communist Party – and ignored the CCP’s intensified efforts to destroy religion – hoping he’d be allowed to visit the P…

Four decades ago, President Ronald Reagan declared that it would be better “to save lives than to avenge them.” For that purpose, he unveiled a “Strategic Defense Initiative.” Tragically, his vision for protecting our country and its population has not been fully actualized, even though the threat we face from enemy missiles has metastasized dramat…

Yesterday, Jamie Dimon’s JPMorgan and Brian Moynihan’s Bank of America raised $4.4 billion for a Pentagon-designated “Chinese military company operating in the United States.” Most Americans might be astonished that there are any such companies – let alone that Wall Street is so indifferent to the national security implications that it is massively…

This is Frank Gaffney with the Secure Freedom Minute. The passing of Dr. Michael Ledeen at any time would be a terrible loss for our country. His myriad brilliant books and countless essays on foreign policy amounted to a national treasure. Surpassingly invaluable were his analyses of the regime that has misruled the people of Iran and threatened o…

The atheistic Marxist Chinese Communist Party has long sought to destroy religion in China and, most especially, the Roman Catholic Church. In 2018, the Vatican became complicit in the CCP’s crimes against Chinese believers and their clergy, churches and Bible – all of which Pope Francis studiously ignored. The deal whereby this betrayal was instit…

On August 15, 2016, then-Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump delivered perhaps the most clear-eyed speech ever given by such a political figure about the grave threat posed by, and the necessity of countering, “Radical Islamic Terrorism.” He condemned its animating ideology rooted in “Sharia law,” which he promised to use “ideological wa…

You demanded, we complied. Last month in this space, I interviewed science/technology/Covid journalist David Zweig about his great new book, An Abundance of Caution: American Schools, the Virus, and a Story of Bad Decisions. It was a bracing conversation, filled with damning media/elite criticism, blue-state horrors, and F-bombs galore. Then a funn…

President Donald Trump is making a gigantic bet on a remade Middle East. The massive weapons sales he has announced to Saudi Arabia and others that may be in the offing with additional regional states, to say nothing of his termination of sanctions on and possible normalization of relations with Syria might make sense in a region transformed by two…

Overshadowed by news yesterday of progress by the Trump team in securing more reciprocal trade arrangements with the Chinese Communist Party were reports that top Wall Street firms are doubling down on the CCP’s wildly unreciprocated access to our capital markets. At issue is fundraising that Jamie Dimon’s JPMorgan and Brian Moynihan’s Bank of Amer…

Even as the United States was negotiating yesterday with Iranian diplomats to effect their country’s denuclearization, Iran’s regime was putting on a show of its undiminished enmity with mobs chanting “death to America.” The man most especially, and quite literally, in the mullahs’ crosshairs is President Donald Trump. They have for some time had a…
