In the suburbs of Detroit, there are a shocking number of pro-Trump signs in Michiganders’ yards. (My parents have at least 10 in their own yard — just in case the neighbors had any doubts). There are far fewer for Mike Rogers, the Republican candidate for Michigan’s open Senate seat.  It could be that not […]

The legacy media’s reaction to former President Donald Trump’s recent performance at the Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner has been nothing short of hysterical — just not in the way they think. As a progressive, I’m no fan of the former president, but the vitriol directed at him post-dinner feels like a classic case of taking […]

President Joe Biden governs like his word matters on the world stage. So, too, have his predecessors. Increasingly, however, the world ignores the United States.

For too long, executives in glass towers have foisted a woke ESG (environmental, social, and governance) agenda on their employees, suppliers, and customers — all in an attempt to curry favor with leftist activists. And now all the virtue-signaling is about to come back to […]

The Democratic Party is freaking out about former President Donald Trump’s visit to a Pennsylvania McDonald’s last Sunday. Its anxiety is understandable because the event highlighted the best of Trump’s strengths and the worst of Vice President Kamala Harris’s weaknesses  Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN), Harris’s running mate, appeared Monday on The View and claimed Trump […]
