Republican Rep. Eli Crane joined “The Kevin Roberts Show” Wednesday to discuss the southern border, challenging the Republican leadership in the House, and how he feels out of place in Washington, D.C.  The congressman told host and Heritage President Kevin Roberts that the voters of Arizona’s 2nd District picked an uncommon person to represent them in Congress. “This guy doesn’t have any experience. He’s got a lot of tattoos. He often wears a ball cap on the campaign trail, but I think this guy might be a little—I think he…

right, Kevin, finally, defies, McCarthy0 comment

For weeks, Speaker Kevin McCarthy seemed to face an impossible choice as he haggled over spending bills with his party’s most hard-line members: He could keep the government open, or he could keep his job. At every turn, McCarthy’s behavior suggested that he favored the latter option. He continued accepting the demands of far-right Republicans to deepen spending cuts and dig in against the Democrats, making a shutdown at tonight’s midnight deadline all but a certainty. [Read: Why Republicans can’t keep the government open] With just hours to go, however,…

The Republican Party has had no better friend than Nassau County in the past few years. Of America’s largest counties, few have turned more sharply toward the GOP than New York City’s neighbor to the east.

Most important for the national GOP, the county helped elect three Republicans to Congress, including two candidates who flipped Democratic seats in districts that President Joe Biden…

At this point in the unending search for a House speaker, Donald Trump’s candidacy is making as much progress as Kevin McCarthy’s. The former president (and half-hearted 2024 White House applicant) today secured his first vote as the House slogged through its seventh fruitless attempt to elect a leader. The semi-serious effort to elevate Trump, put forward by Representative Matt Gaetz of Florida, came at the expense of McCarthy, the Trump-endorsed Republican leader whose bid hasn’t improved in the past six ballots. McCarthy twice more lost 21 Republicans and fell…

House Republican Leader Kevin McCarthy announced Tuesday from the border in El Paso, Texas, that the House’s new Republican majority will launch an impeachment inquiry into Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas. McCarthy, R-Calif., first called for Mayorkas, appointed by President Joe Biden, to resign to avoid impeachment. “Our country may never recover from Secretary Mayorkas’ dereliction of duty,” McCarthy said, adding: This is why today I am calling on the secretary to resign. He cannot and must not remain in that position. If Secretary Mayorkas does not resign, House Republicans…

It is time for America to recognize that “abortion, just like slavery, is one of the greatest human evils that humans have ever experienced in world history,” Kevin Roberts, president of The Heritage Foundation, said to a crowd of pro-life students and advocates Saturday.  It’s time for the pro-life community to be on “offense every single day for the unborn and moms and dads and families in America,” Roberts said.   The president of The Heritage Foundation, a Washington, D.C.-based think tank, spoke to pro-life activists on the main stage…
