The House rejected Rep. Rashida Tlaib’s second attempt to force a U.S. military withdrawal from Lebanon, voting 235-189 against a war powers resolution that even two dozen members of her own party refused to support. The Michigan Democrat’s measure, H.Con.Res. 108, would have ordered President Donald Trump to pull American armed forces from hostilities in Lebanon within seven days, invoking section 5(c) of the War Powers Resolution. Twenty-two Democrats crossed the aisle to join Republicans in sinking the measure Tuesday. Only two Republicans, Thomas Massie and Lauren Boebert, voted in favor, according to Fox News.

Veteran pragmatists emphasize electability and middle-class concerns, while louder progressive currents push structural change and high-spending policy agendas. For conservatives watching, this is an opportunity to point out how internal fights sap momentum and make unified messaging impossible. “Which way, Democratic Party?” has become more than…

This piece explains how separating spatial effects and measuring indirect impacts gives a clearer view of how immigration can extend beyond initial arrival zones and affect communities nationwide. Researchers who strip out localized spatial correlations and then track secondary impacts find patterns that single-location snapshots miss. By isolating direct and indirect channels, the data reveal how changes in one area ripple outward into neighboring towns and counties. That matters because policy decisions should be based on the full pattern of consequences, not just the initial points of entry. On the ground, communities feel those ripples in practical ways — school…

Moderate Democrats have circulated a “Promise to America” declaring a return to mainstream policies, signaling resistance to far-left priorities as a small, but potentially meaningful, group stakes out a different path within the party. On Jun 28, 2026, a growing band of Democrats unveiled a compact meant to distance themselves from socialist policies and restore a more centrist approach to governance.
