The Washington Times is a conservative daily newspaper based in Washington, D.C., owned through a corporate chain ultimately controlled by the Unification Church founded by Sun Myung Moon. Its editorial line is consistently right-leaning, favoring Republican policy positions and socially conservative causes. Since Trump's second term began in January 2025, the paper's editorial board has been broadly supportive, praising administration actions such as dismantling federal agencies and the president's foreign policy approach.
