Former President Donald Trump showed off the chart that he was attempting to show during his rally in Pennsylvania that was cut short by an attempt on his life.
Every week political cartoonists throughout the country and across the political spectrum apply their ink-stained skills to capture the foibles, memes, hypocrisies and other...
Republicans gathered this week in Milwaukee for the Republican National Convention, and among the matters they confronted was the need to stop a wave of tax increases set to fall on Americans next year, particularly on the heart of the economy — manufacturers and their workers. It will be what some are calling a “tax […]
I first saw Caitlin Clark play basketball in the 1970s. Well, it wasn’t Clark herself. The women’s basketball phenomenon, 22, hadn’t been born yet. But I saw female players exactly like her – tough, talented, and grounded in spiritual values. This was because I grew up in a Catholic family in Maryland, went to Catholic […]
Tom Brady retired earlier this spring. He’d led his organization longer than anyone else on the scene and posted record numbers and results right up to his retirement. But if former President Donald Trump is elected again this November, Brady’s legacy must be completely undone. We’re not talking about the famed NFL quarterback. We mean […]
Jamaal Bowman is out. The two-term congressman from New York’s 16th Congressional District was defeated in the Democratic primary by George Latimer, a longtime Westchester County pol.

Still, Democratic power brokers have proceeded as though the Democratic National Committee has only until Aug. 7 […]
There is not a flicker of the old Republican Party left. No embers of fiscal conservatism, global leadership, or moral decency. Reaganism’s ashes are stone-cold. Milwaukee showed us a MAGA movement confident of victory. No previous Republican National Convention has known such vindictiveness, paranoia, and hero-worship. Sporting bandages on their ears, delegates loudly insisted that […]
