For years, Americans watched as violent crime surged in the wake of the pandemic, civil unrest, and anti-police rhetoric. Now, new data reviewed by Axios shows a sharp and widespread decline in violent crime across many of the nation’s largest cities in 2025 — marking one of the most significant reversals in recent memory. According to the report, homicide rates dropped substantially in dozens of major cities. Orlando and Tampa saw some of the steepest declines. Denver, Seatt

New York City — In what critics are calling a jaw-dropping break with tradition, New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani is under fire this week after blowing off the installation of the new Archbishop of New York at St. Patrick’s Cathedral — a ceremony every sitting mayor has attended for nearly a century. Archbishop Ronald Hicks, who on Feb. 6 was officially installed as the 11th archbishop of the Archdiocese of New York — home to some 2½ million Catholics — did so in a histori

A newly released Department of Justice  document has intensified scrutiny over former President Donald Trump  and his knowledge of Jeffrey Epstein ’s crimes — even as the White House maintains the president’s long-standing narrative that he cut ties with Epstein decades ago. The document, part of a massive release of files connected to Epstein’s criminal history — mandated by the Epstein Files Transparency Act — includes a summary of a 2019 FBI interview with former Michael R

Newly unsealed federal documents released by the Department of Justice deliver powerful confirmation that President Donald Trump acted early and decisively against convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein, contradicting years of media-driven insinuations pushed by Trump’s political opponents.

WASHINGTON — A full-scale cultural backlash erupted this week after Rep. **Andy Ogles** (R-TN) formally demanded a **congressional investigation** into the National Football League and broadcaster **NBCUniversal** over what he described as an *indecent*, *morally degrading* Super Bowl LX halftime show headlined by global pop star **Bad Bunny**. In a sharply worded letter shared publicly on X, Ogles branded the performance “**pure smut**” and a “moral affront” broadcast into

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a bold display of America-First leadership, **President Donald J. Trump yesterday signed a sweeping Executive Order adjusting U.S. tariffs to counter national security threats tied to the Government of the Russian Federation — a move aimed at forcing compliance from nations still tied to Moscow’s energy exports and preserving U.S. global power. Under pressure from ongoing threats posed by Vladimir Putin’s regime — including Russia’s proxy wars in Ukraine

WASHINGTON — President Donald J. Trump lit into Democrat leadership in Minnesota this weekend, declaring that the scope of fraud in the state’s social services system is far greater than earlier estimates and directly tying the scandal to what he called “decades of political corruption” under Democrats.

Once again, a conservative media outlet finds itself under attack—not for publishing falsehoods, not for breaking the law, but for refusing to bend to ideological pressure. Capitol Times Magazine, a privately owned conservative publication, recently faced aggressive accusations from an outside individual, who objected to the magazine’s long-standing and lawful business model regarding sponsored front-cover features. Let’s be clear from the start: Capitol Times is not a govern

MINNEAPOLIS — In a powerful address Thursday morning, White House border czar Tom Homan declared that the Trump administration has made real progress in restoring order in Minneapolis following days of unrest sparked by federal immigration enforcement actions. Homan signaled that federal agents could soon be scaled back — but only if local and state officials fully cooperate with Immigration and Customs Enforcement detainers and enforcement priorities. Dispatched at the dire

In what has become a predictable ritual of media bias, the legacy news outlets were quick today to trumpet that President Donald Trump’s net approval rating with independents has allegedly dropped to an “all-time low.” A new poll — eagerly amplified by establishment publications — claims Trump has lost ground with independent voters in their latest measurement. But any honest observer will notice something glaring: these so-called “all-time lows” are being spun without histor

MINNEAPOLIS, MN — In response to days of rioting, looting, and violent clashes across Minneapolis, President Donald J. Trump issued a firm set of demands aimed at restoring law and order and ending the chaos tearing through the city.

WASHINGTON, D.C. — In a blistering new turn of the 2026 political battlefield, President Donald J. Trump openly expressed disbelief that California Governor Gavin Newsom would even consider a presidential campaign — saying the radical left boss of San Francisco’s socialist stronghold simply isn’t fit to lead the country.

WASHINGTON DC — In a decisive move that reflects President Donald J. Trump’s iron-clad commitment to law and order, the Commander-in-Chief announced tonight he is dispatching his trusted Border Czar, Tom Homan, to Minnesota to restore order and directly oversee federal operations there. “I am sending Tom Homan to Minnesota tonight,” President Trump declared. “He has not been involved in that area, but knows and likes many of the people there.

Minneapolis —  President Donald J. Trump vowed Monday that his administration is “reviewing everything” surrounding the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti, the latest flashpoint in a nation increasingly divided over immigration enforcement and law and order. In an interview with The Wall Street Journal , Trump stopped short of saying whether the federal Border Patrol agent who fired the fatal shots acted appropriately — but made clear that his priority is law and order and protect

WASHINGTON — In a blistering Sunday night address and series of Truth Social posts, President Donald J. Trump issued an ultimatum to Democrat governors and mayors: cooperate fully with federal immigration enforcement or watch America descend further into violent chaos — chaos that, in the administration’s view, has already cost two American lives.

In a blistering summation of what he sees as North America’s most pivotal geopolitical fault line, President Donald J. Trump issued an unmistakable ultimatum to Canada on Saturday — abandon its drift toward Beijing, or face the economic consequences.

LOS ANGELES — On the inaugural night of the Make Heaven Crowded tour — the nationwide faith and revival campaign organized by Turning Point USA Faith — Erika Kirk, widow of conservative icon Charlie Kirk, delivered a powerful and unapologetic address that electrified audiences and rattled the radical left.

Trump filed a sweeping $5 billion lawsuit on Thursday against banking juggernaut JPMorgan Chase & Co. and its CEO Jamie Dimon, accusing the institution of shutting down his longstanding personal and business accounts for purely political reasons.
