“ActBlue is an important part of the Democratic machine. And now something appears to have gone terribly wrong,” reports the Washington Examiner’s Byron York.
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.

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 […]
President Donald Trump set 25% tariffs on all aluminum and steel products after reversing on his previous threats to enforce a 50% tariff.

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 […]
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 […]
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, […]
