My wife always recalls gathering with her dozens of cousins. My children will always remember when our two dogs murdered a raccoon on the back deck before sunrise. She […]
The United States has removed Syria from its list of state sponsors of terrorism as the Trump administration seeks to shape an emerging new order in the Middle East.

Democratic politicians wail about the rising tide of fascism just to turn around and demand a fascist takeover of the judicial branch because it won’t rule how they want. Democrats are particularly upset with two cases. The first was the Supreme Court striking down race-based congressional districts, which Democrats used to segregate black voters into Democratic districts […]

Walgreens is shuttering a location in Chicago, upsetting residents, and stirring fury among exploitative and complicit politicians. The way some local “leaders” tell it, the drugstore chain is acting greedily, selfishly, or even criminally. “Walgreens should be charged with first-degree corporate abandonment,” thundered a local alderman. “It should be a crime, the way they’re treating […]
Americans are increasingly being governed by rules they never voted for, written by people they will never elect, and enforced through systems they cannot challenge. Foreign-led institutions are effectively controlling U.S. domestic environmental policy. Behind the technical language of “global standards” and “harmonization” are decisions that shape American industry, energy, and cost of living, which […]
Healthcare fraud isn’t new, but it’s becoming increasingly sophisticated, targeted, and costly. The National Health Care Anti-Fraud Association estimates financial losses at tens of billions of dollars each year.
