The most recent incident that has left egg on its once-sterling reputation is the BBC's reporting on the deaths in Gaza of 53 of its journalists who purportedly worked for BBC Arabic.&nbsp;]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 18:54:59 -0400<![CDATA[Jennifer Oliver O'Connell]]>https://redstate.com/jenniferoo/2026/09/27/documentary-on-the-children-of-gaza-leaves-the-bbc-with-egg-on-its-face-and-facing-internal-review-n2207450<![CDATA[Sen.

He has been turning the financial screws tighter and tighter on Iran. He is very likely hurting the mullahs and what's left of the regime more than American and Israeli high explosives have done, and now he's making a bold prediction: Iran is running out of oil it can trade, and they will be broke in two weeks.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 18:30:11 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/09/27/bessent-iran-now-on-its-knees-as-final-oil-to-china-dries-up-n2207453<![CDATA[Isn't it funny how smart people sometimes fall prey to dumb ideas?]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 17:04:40 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/09/27/bill-gates-peddles-new-extreme-billion-death-ai-claim-n2207451<![CDATA[Singer Nicki Minaj is a big fan and strong supporter of President Donald Trump.&nbsp;]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 16:47:18 -0400<![CDATA[Nick Arama]]>https://redstate.com/nick-arama/2026/09/27/nicki-minaj-remarks-about-dems-and-the-black-vote-n2207448<![CDATA[There are, justifiably, few groups of people so honored and respected as our nation's veterans, especially those who were wounded in action. I'm a third-generation veteran myself, my Dad was a World War II veteran as were all my uncles, two of whom were wounded in action; my grandfather was a Great War veteran. We love and respect all our men and women who honorably served, with a special respect for those who paid a very real and physical price.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 16:02:27 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/09/27/new-chinese-ai-scam-uses-fake-wounded-veterans-to-sell-patriotic-merch-n2207449<![CDATA[The recent kerfuffle involving British popster Ed Sheeran and his train wreck of a current stadium tour, which was derailed by opening act Macklemore’s thinly disguised antisemitic rants that eventually saw him kicked off the bill, is a reminder that while seldom failing to garner attention, artistic controversy in and of itself is no guarantee of acclaim from any element of current culture. There are artists such as Bruce Springsteen and Tom Morello who have turned strident political stands into a cottage industry, knowing their every statement will be lapped up by an in-agreement media and thereby fueling the milking of whichever pose neatly fits within today’s cause du jour for maximum profit.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 15:28:02 -0400<![CDATA[Jerry Wilson]]>https://redstate.com/jerrywilson/2026/09/27/a-conversation-with-terry-scott-taylor-the-best-christian-artist-youve-probably-never-heard-of-n2207447<![CDATA[We've been reporting on some of the tumult coming from some Republicans in Texas over the choice of Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton over incumbent Sen.

Some for their looks, some for their style, some for their acting ability. And then there are some whose appeal is due to an enormous helping of charisma, a certain charm, and an ability to not take themselves too seriously.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 15:01:40 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/09/27/bruce-campbell-studios-left-a-very-sour-taste-now-hes-doing-his-own-thing-n2207446<![CDATA[There's nothing funny about rising energy costs, to the people who are least able to afford them. Every attempt at "green" energy has raised the cost of said energy. The cost of energy is at the heart of everything else in the economy, and "green" attempts raise those costs.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 13:36:02 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/09/27/chris-wright-shuts-down-laughing-nyt-crowd-whats-funny-about-80-higher-power-bills-n2207442<![CDATA[President Donald Trump has confirmed that a major terrorist attack was thwarted in England.

His Attorney General clearly isn't having any of that, either. On Sunday, speaking with host Martha Raddatz on ABC's This Week program, Attorney General Todd Blanche made the administration's stance on denying Air Force One access to CNN very plain.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 12:35:09 -0400<![CDATA[Ward Clark]]>https://redstate.com/wardclark/2026/09/27/ag-blanche-white-house-access-is-a-privilege-not-a-right-n2207441<![CDATA[The Trump administration, under the auspices of the Executive Office for Immigration Review (EOIR), has been quietly removing immigration judges. Some have been let go after their two-year probationary period; others have been actively removed and replaced by new civilian and JAG lawyers. One of the EOIR reforms is that new judges do not necessarily need to have immigration experience.]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 11:20:54 -0400<![CDATA[Jennifer Oliver O'Connell]]>https://redstate.com/jenniferoo/2026/09/27/more-of-this-please-doj-shakes-up-immigration-courts-amid-massive-case-backlog-n2207433<![CDATA[There has to be a term for something worse than hypocrisy when it comes to Hillary Clinton.&nbsp;]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 10:43:26 -0400<![CDATA[Kyle Becker]]>https://redstate.com/kyle-becker/2026/09/27/hillary-clinton-just-went-after-donald-trump-she-gets-absolutely-wrecked-n2207435<![CDATA[Happy Sunday, and welcome to the RedState Weekly Briefing — where we take a quick look at the week’s most-viewed stories in case you missed any of them.

This isn’t too surprising, as we have all seen how the CW (conventional wisdom) has swiftly moved towards the belief that “the GOP is Doomed in 2026!” Pressure is something Cameron never handles very well. I suspect he is in his apartment right now, depressed, and hiding under his bedcovers while mumbling to himself about the coming “blue wave.”]]>Sun, 27 Sep 2026 09:45:00 -0400<![CDATA[Adam Turner]]>https://redstate.com/adam-turner/2026/09/27/is-the-gop-doomed-n2207414
