In former President Donald Trump’s choice of Sen. J.D. Vance (R-OH) as his vice presidential candidate, I hear echoes of history. As others have pointed out, Vance’s selection makes little sense in the short term. He brings little experience in government — 18 months in the Senate — and was a desultory vote-getter in his […]
MILWAUKEE — Corporate welfare is a bipartisan practice in Washington and state capitals, but ideologically, most conservatives and some liberals consistently inveigh against it. The topic scrambles the simplistic categories used by the news media and even by many partisans and politicians. So it was fitting that Teamsters President Sean O’Brien, whose very presence at […]
After the assassination attempt on former President Donald Trump, the Democratic Party is still more splintered than it has been in decades. The Left had already been in a state of hysteria for the nearly three weeks since President Joe Biden’s disastrous debate performance stoked fears that, if he is the nominee in November, he […]
Lost in the excitement of the final days of the Supreme Court term, amid rulings on Chevron U.S.A., Inc. v. Natural Resources Defense Council, Inc. deference, presidential immunity, and Jan. 6, 2021, defendants, was an opinion by Justice Amy Coney Barrett. “Sorry,” she began when Chief Justice John Roberts called upon her to deliver the […]
President Biden, during his latest rambling, incoherent, bad-tempered, and often excruciatingly awkward TV interview, was very clear about one thing regarding Donald Trump’s shooting:...
As is important to reiterate, President Joe Biden has never called for violence to be used against Donald Trump, nor did the incumbent president excuse or condone the assassination attempt that nearly murdered his 2024 challenger. Biden outright condemned the attack on Trump’s life during his Oval Office address on Sunday night, urging people to […]
TRUMP AND THE VANCE CALCULATION. Milwaukee — Former President Donald Trump once privately told associates that the problem he faced selecting a running mate was that the field of possible partners did not include a no-brainer — a candidate whose appeal was so strong, so obvious, and so broad that he or she would have […]
In the 48 hours since the attempted assassination of former President Donald Trump, President Joe Biden has made repeated pleas to the nation to turn down its rhetoric amid the 2024 presidential election. “You know, the political rhetoric in this country has gotten very heated. It’s time to cool it down. And we all have a […]
What planet does President Joe Biden occupy when he talks about corporate profits and rent controls? At his Thursday press conference, Biden said: “I’m not anti-corporate. But corporate profits have doubled since the pandemic — doubled. It’s time things get back in order a little bit. It’s time — for example, if I’m reelected, we’re going to make […]
New York Times columnist Ezra Klein revealed last week that top Democrats had privately admitted to him that former President Donald Trump is not actually a threat to democracy. Considering this narrative has been the centerpiece of the Democrats’ nine-year gaslighting campaign against Trump, this bombshell revelation should have been shouted from the rooftops. Regarding […]
Democrats want noncitizens to vote in our elections. That was the unmistakable conclusion of last week’s vote in the House of Representatives. Republicans passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility, or SAVE, Act, which would require states to obtain proof of citizenship when someone registers to vote in federal elections. But Democrats overwhelmingly voted against the […]
In President Joe Biden’s America, saving for retirement has become increasingly difficult as prices for basic necessities continue to skyrocket thanks to Bidenomics. People are spending more than $1,000 more a month than they were three years ago, and real average weekly wages are down 4.4% since Biden took office. As Bidenomics continues to destroy […]
In his July 4, 1861, address to Congress in special session, President Abraham Lincoln noted Americans had two choices for settling political disputes and thus making political decisions: Bullets or ballots. We either discuss and vote or violently coerce. Americans had chosen ballots, but a Civil War threatened to upend that choice, returning to the […]
Newly coronated as the 2024 Republican nominee for president, Donald Trump has made his first public appearance since the Saturday assassination attempt against his life. Two days can change everything. As Trump walked to his chair at the Republican National Convention hall in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, it was clear that Saturday’s incident was anything but a […]
