(Photo by Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images) President Donald Trump has exceeded Presidents Ronald Reagan and Abraham Lincoln as the most esteemed Republican commander-in-chief by GOP voters, according to a recent poll.

(Photo by Adam Gray/Getty Images) A constitutional dispute over religious freedom and public health continues in New York, where members of the state’s roughly 25,000-person Amish community have indicated they may relocate if required to comply with mandatory school vaccination rules. The conflict stems from a 2019 law signed by then-New York Democrat Governor Andrew Cuomo that eliminated non-medical and religious exemptions for school-required immunizations following a severe measles outbreak centered in Orthodox Jewish communities. New York officials maintain that strictly enforced vaccination requirements are “necessary to protect public health and sustain high immunization rates.” However, Old Order Amish families argue that requiring their children to receive immunizations violates their sincerely held religious beliefs, their tradition of separation from modern society...

Hezbollah has continued to invest in its recovery and adapt its strategy for what it anticipates could be a prolonged, low-intensity war with Israel , according to the latest assessment by the Alma Research and Education Center, published on Sunday. Based on incidents recorded over the past several months, the center assessed that Hezbollah could increasingly turn toward guerrilla warfare, including small-scale infiltrations into the security zone and potentially Israeli territory, as well as drone and explosive attacks. The group’s ability to carry out its previous plans to seize the Galilee has been significantly diminished by the destruction of its infrastructure and the con...

He continued to claim that the only thing Tehran still has is “fake news from the USA,” a willingness to kill anti-regime protestors, and “a good line of b******t.” In reference to the killing of anti-regime protestors, Trump claimed that over 100,000 have been killed and asserted that the regime in Tehran must be tr...
