Sens. James Lankford and Mike Lee cite a Supreme Court ruling as they push legislation requiring all mail-in ballots be received by the time polls close.
Twenty-one state attorneys general just sued the federal government over food stamps. Not to feed more hungry American citizens. To keep benefits flowing to noncitizens and to stop Washington from checking whether the people collecting them are alive, unique, or even eligible in the first place. I have spent three decades in investment management, much […]
For more than two centuries, the Manila Galleons carried Chinese silk, porcelain, and spices across the Pacific to Acapulco. From there, the cargo crossed Mexico before joining Spanish treasure fleets sailing to Europe, almost always stopping in the Canary Islands before catching the Atlantic trade winds. That maritime network became the world’s first truly global […]
It is no secret that millions of Americans are struggling under financial pressures from inflation. Most Americans look at gas and grocery prices as a proxy for overall inflation. Add in higher interest rates and higher costs for healthcare, and a rational person would conclude that any effort to restrict access to debt relief programs […]
Despite its clever name, Sen. Chuck Schumer’s (D-NY) so-called “Family Grocery and Farmer Relief Act” won’t provide relief for grocers or producers, or consumers for that matter. Instead, it will make things worse by inserting the federal government into the dynamic, highly sophisticated, and competitive meat, livestock, and poultry markets. First, Schumer’s bill makes it […]

Earlier this week, two disgruntled Republican senators, Thom Tillis (NC) and John Cornyn (TX), lifted their holds on Blanche’s nomination, clearing the way for him through the Senate Judiciary Committee.

Will Trump allow himself […]
He was surely a plant, some kind of agent. Professor Jason Arday, who at 36 became the youngest black professor at Cambridge University, could only have been working for a secret cabal of meritocrats whose mission was to destroy diversity, equity, and inclusion. No one else has done half as much to expose the fools, […]
On Dec. 27, 2024, the Biden administration’s Treasury Department did two things, and only one of them made the news. First, it sanctioned Bidzina Ivanishvili under Executive Order 14024 — the sanctions architecture built for the Russian Federation. In the U.S. government’s own assessment, Ivanishvili acted on behalf of — and for the benefit of […]
Despite millions of dollars spent by the marijuana industry, Congress finally closed a loophole that had allowed intoxicating hemp products to spread across the country last year. Now, before the law has even taken effect, President Donald Trump and Senate leaders are trying to delay it. The continuing resolution that will fund the government past […]
