WASHINGTON, Sept 9 (Reuters) – Former U.S. Pardon Attorney Ed Martin is launching a new gun rights group aimed at restoring firearm access to Americans convicted of nonviolent crimes, an initiative that seeks to boost conservative turnout in this fall’s midterm elections. Martin, who left the Justice Department last week, said the group, Firearm Rights for Americans, was an idea encouraged by President Donald Trump during their final Oval Office meeting. Trump told Martin he wanted to make sure his administration received “credit” for expanding gun access, Martin added. “When you turn out Second Amendment voters, they vote right,” Martin said, referring…

In the polished, aspirational world of the Robb Report, success is not just a metric—it is a commodity. Owned by Penske Media Corporation, the publication has mastered the art of blurring the lines between high-end journalism and corporate vanity. Its business model thrives on the “Robb Report Studio,” a division that stitches together lifestyle editorial and advertorial content into a seamless, glowing narrative. By selling the opportunity to “transform earned editorial into a powerful brand asset,” the magazine allows subjects to purchase the legitimacy that typically takes a lifetime to build. This is the theater of wealth: a platform where,…
Ed Martin is finishing up as pardon attorney next week. Under his guidance, President Trump has pardoned hundreds of victims of the Biden administration’s weaponization of the justice system against Trump and anyone who supported him. The devout Catholic restored their reputations and their dignity in his short 15-month tenure that he calls “Trump’s year of mercy.” His critics sneer at him while quaking in their boots because Martin is a happy warrior who has achieved an awful lot in a short time. He also served for four months as interim DC US attorney, during which time he managed to oversee the…
A new poll released by J.L. Partners on August 19, 2026, shows Republican Anthony Constantino holding a clear lead over Democrat Blake Gendebien in the race to succeed retiring Rep. Elise Stefanik in the Republican-leaning 21st Congressional District. The survey surveyed 500 likely voters from August 15-17 and carries a margin of error of plus or minus 4.4%. J.L. Partners, the firm behind the numbers, was among the more accurate pollsters in the 2024 presidential cycle, correctly projecting President Donald J. Trump’s popular-vote and Electoral College wins. According to a New York Post exclusive by Carl Campanile, Constantino leads 50% to 40%, with…
By J. Michael Waller for American Greatness The U.S. and EU are alarmed that Antigua and Barbuda’s passport program lacks the transparency needed to prevent abuse. A tiny Caribbean country has issued passports to Iranian nationals, prompting concerns in Washington that terrorists could be entering the U.S. legally on official documents of friendly nations. The government of Antigua and Barbuda has been on the Trump administration’s radar for well over a year. Three sources with direct knowledge confirm that the Department of Homeland Security is investigating the government of Antigua and Barbuda for issuing its passports to citizens of Iran,…
For over twenty years, search engine optimization dictated how websites were built. Companies focused on keywords, meta tags, backlinks, and fast loading speeds to rank higher on Google. That approach worked well when people started their research with search engines. But the way people find information is changing fast. Today, a growing number of users—especially those researching technical products—turn first to AI platforms and large language models like ChatGPT, Claude, or Perplexity. Instead of clicking through search results, they ask natural questions and receive instant, synthesized answers. This shift means websites can no longer focus only on traditional SEO. They…
NEW YORK – What began as the seizure of a sanctioned Russian superyacht by the Antiguan authorities has evolved into a sprawling international legal dispute that now stretches from the Caribbean to federal court in Manhattan, raising questions about how tens millions of dollars of yacht auction proceeds were handled. In an unexpected turn on Friday, the prime minister’s own lawyers may have inadvertently exposed his finances to judicial scrutiny in the case of the purloined superyacht. At the center of the controversy is the Alfa Nero, the 267-foot luxury yacht once associated with the family of Russian fertilizer billionaire Andrey Guryev.…
In Spain, there is a custom of playing pranks—jokes ranging from mildly amusing to teasing—on December 28th. This tradition extends to the media, which often concocts an unbelievable story for the occasion (do you recall the “shrinking penis syndrome” among Japanese men, a story that still occasionally resurfaces?), much like the pranks played on April 1st in other countries. In the early days of Mundoclasico.com, we too used to invent a prank for the day, but quite a few years ago we set ourselves a greater challenge: to publish one or more stories on that date that were genuine yet…
President Donald Trump has delivered one of the most sought-after endorsements in Republican politics, throwing his full support behind businessman and political newcomer Anthony Constantino in New York’s 21st Congressional District. In a lengthy message posted ahead of the June 23 Republican primary, President Trump called Constantino an “America First Patriot” and praised him as the candidate who will fight alongside him to advance the America First agenda in Washington. Trump urged Republicans, conservatives, and MAGA supporters across the district to unite behind Constantino both in the primary and the general election, describing him as the right person to succeed Rep. Elise…
President Trump showed the forgotten men that they still matter. On Sunday night, I walked two of my oldest friends from Buffalo onto the South Lawn of the White House for UFC Freedom 250. What they experienced there explains better than any poll why you better not count Donald Trump’s base out of this year’s midterms. My ninth grade best friend, Carl Salemi, introduced me to Chuck Sonntag, who remains one of my closest friends. When Carl tragically died in a construction accident shortly after I joined the Army in the early 1980s, I stayed close with his younger brother…
