MAHA moms should look forward to working

These days, successful women choose some variation on one sequence of events: They enter an influential position in the workforce and then use most of their time figuring out how to maximize time with their children. It is all part of the GOP pro-family master plan. The culmination of this pattern comes as a House […]

Trump’s brutally honest gambling

President Donald Trump says the quiet part out loud. He has no sotto voce setting. This militates against statesmanship.  Former President Bill Clinton told CNN years ago it’s best to be “brutally” honest in private but, if you want someone’s help, not to say things in public that embarrass them. But Trump doesn’t work that […]

Can Trump hold his course on tariffs?

President Donald Trump set 25% tariffs on all aluminum and steel products after reversing on his previous threats to enforce a 50% tariff. Canada threatened to increase taxes on electricity sold to the United States before Trump said he would double the tariff rate. Canada removed the tax and Trump reduced the tariff to the […]

Good news on inflation

GOOD NEWS ON INFLATION. Biden-era inflation, what many call the “affordability crisis,” was the No. 1 reason Donald Trump was elected president for a second time. Yes, voters wanted Trump to fix the Biden disaster at the U.S.-Mexico border. And yes, they were concerned about crime, woke, and chaos in global affairs. But inflation was the […]

Canada’s new prime minister takes Hamas’s side

Outgoing Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau was content to make Canada a vehicle of Palestinian propaganda and Hamas interests.

Shortly after being elected […]

Tariffs based on tendentious history could be political malpractice

Will the second Trump administration come undone by an economic policy based on what the British military historian Lawrence Freedman, describing Vladimir Putin‘s rationale for invading Ukraine, calls “tendentious history”? This week, it started to look like the answer might be yes. In retrospect, it’s clear how the Biden administration’s economic policy stimulated inflation, which, […]

Suddenly, the legacy media love nationalism

As soon as President Donald Trump threatened tariffs on our northern neighbor, Canadians began working to “make Canada great again.” They have been spurred to stick it to America in response to the economic agreement changes, and reports are consistently covering the outrage Canadians feel toward the United States for this rapid shift. Just this […]

How Trump fears and trusts Putin too much

President Donald Trump doesn’t simply wish to negotiate a peaceful end to Russia’s war on Ukraine. He also wants to forge a new relationship with Russia built around increased, mutually beneficial cooperation. Trump frequently references his desire to strike new investment, arms control, and other accords with Moscow. Two perceptions underpin this effort. First, the […]

Democrats need to kick their doomcasting addiction

Nearly everyone has an aunt on Facebook who indulges in daily political doomcasting. It’s difficult to witness — like a deadly addiction, sucking the life out hit-by-hit.  Still, we hold our tongues. We endure it — we remember Christmas, weddings, and happy times, and we think, “Aunt Phyliss, love that one.” It isn’t her fault, […]
