Five years ago, President Biden said withholding military aid to Israel was, “preposterous”. But under pressure from anti-Israel radicals, he’s changed his tune. Holding up aid to our ally means giving terrorists a lifeline. If the Biden Admin. wants adversaries to change their behavior,

.President Biden cannot claim his support for Israel is ‘ironclad’ while denying Israel precisely the weapons it needs to defend itself. If the Commander-in-Chief can’t muster the political courage to stand up to radicals on his left flank, the consequences will be grave and our enemies

I was proud to welcome the leadership of Kentucky’s own 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault) to the U.S. Capitol today. From valor in Normandy in 1944 to standing with NATO allies against Russian aggression today, this storied unit has safeguarded the peace and prosperity

The Biden Administration says their commitment to Israel is “ironclad”. If they mean it, then it’s time to stop bending to pressure from campus communists and give our ally the time, space, and support it needs to destroy the terrorists threatening Israelis and Palestinians,

The situation on college campuses is driven by faculty who have traded education for indoctrination, administrators who have traded rules for requests, and elected leaders who have chosen to look away. It’s time to restore order for students who pay to learn.

Washington Democrats said the repeal of net neutrality would mean “you’ll get the internet one word at a time.” They were dead wrong on that. And President Biden is wrong again for trying to resurrect the Obama-era rule that would clutter the internet with more red tape all over again.

As student radicals embrace vile anti-Semitism on campus, Iran and its terrorist network continue to try to destroy the Jewish state of Israel and undermine its ally, America. President Biden needs to stop micromanaging Israel’s defense and start imposing real costs on Tehran to change

Grateful to Shelley Moore Capito for leading the charge against yet another Biden Admin. regulatory overreach. The EPA’s latest power grab is a recipe for even higher energy prices, more electricity blackouts, and weaker national security. Americans can’t afford it — and Kentuckians least
