In a recent post to her must read Substack our friend Karen Siegemund, President of the American Freedom Alliance, reminds us “You don’t have to do EVERYTHING - Just … do something!” We are gigantically in error if we cling to this notion that there must be “one big thing,” one “right” thing to do, and we must wait till we have discovered it to take action to get us out of this disaster.

Despite the spectacular miscarriage of the White House meeting last Friday where the minerals deal was supposed to be inked, it remains the best hope for translating a temporary suspension of hostilities into an actual peace that will require an end to Russian dictator Vladimir Putin’s territorial ambitions, and not just Ukraine’s efforts to resist them.

President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy’s bizarre behavior at Friday’s Oval Office meeting where he was invited to sign a mineral development deal with the United States blew-up the meeting in spectacular fashion.Even though the Ukrainian parliament – the Rada – had approved the mineral development deal, Zelenskyy left without the agreement that would have cemented continued American support for his war effort and the redevelopment of his war shattered country.To fully appreciate how Zelenskyy Read More.

Will Taiwan continue to be or not to be an independent country? That is the question. Will the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) invade Taiwan militarily or continue to intimidate it through “gray zone” activities? The CCP subjects Taiwan to cyber warfare, severed undersea communication cables, Chinese military ships and planes encircling the island, and constant intimidation and propaganda. The CCP has threatened to unify Taiwan with the People’s Republic of China (PRC) despite Taiwan never being p Read More.

Today's Secure Freedom Minute with Frank Gaffney: President Trump has providentially tapped retired general Dan “Razin” Caine to be the next Joint Chiefs Chairman. That extraordinary step was prompted by this can-do warrior’s swift defeat of ISIS others insisted would take years. Such leadership and initiative is needed now regarding Mr. Trump’s directive for a Pentagon plan within weeks to defend the American people with our version of Israel’s “Iron Dome” anti-missile defense. The Pete Hegseth Read More.

FLASH UPDATE: Ukraine's parliament agrees to Trump's proposal, but Zelenskyy torches deal in Oval Office meltdown. Senator Lindsey Graham says Zelenskyy should resign. Situation fluid and developing.

Yesterday’s planned release of the Epstein Files held by the FBI and the Department of Justice turned out to be rather anticlimactic – although a large group of conservative journalists and “influencers” left the White House with binders labeled “Epstein files” Attorney General Pam Bondi released what amounted to nothing more than Jeffrey Epstein’s phone book.Even so, Rogan O’Handley, who goes by the name “DC Draino” on X, told the New York Post he and the other right-wing influencers were hande Read More.

Today's Secure Freedom Minute with Frank Gaffney: Taiwan yesterday denounced Chinese military incursions, including “shooting exercises” in international shipping routes. Such drills demonstrate the Chinese Communist Party’s capability for no-notice action against the democratic island nation. President Trump declined yesterday to say how he would respond to such an attack. And defense contractor RAND recently engaged in astonishing “threat deflation,” contending that “the People’s Liberation Ar Read More.

Regular readers of CHQ will recall that we became Speaker Mike Johnson sceptics after he regularly caved without a fight during the time Republicans held the House majority during Joe Biden’s disastrous presidency.We even began to refer to him as Mike “The Disappointment” Johnson. And we were prepared to be disappointed again when President Trump seemingly bet all his chips on Speaker Johnson getting his “one big beautiful bill” passed by the House and sent to the Senate.But in managing passage Read More.
