I’ve written before that as recently as the Great Depression (yes, surprisingly, almost 100 years ago) many people were embarrassed to take a handout from the government. Would such days return.
Serving nearly 700,000 veterans who call Ohio home in the U.S. Senate is an honor I do not take lightly. Throughout my time in public service, serving Ohio’s veterans includes recognizing their service and sharing their stories.
Alaska’s North Slope is home to some of the largest oil and natural gas fields in the country, yet much of that resource remains untapped. Why? For years, Alaska’s natural resources have been locked up by environmental activists and their political allies.
Populist magic does not translate. That was the conclusion of President Trump, in so many words, as he watched returns roll in late Tuesday night at the White House.
How do we understand the victory of a Marxist radical? It’s a sad day for the de facto capital of the world, New York City. The epicenter of American finance, media, and dynamism now enters a self-imposed trajectory of decline.
When the lawyers for the environmental movement tell you what they’re trying to do, believe them. They’ve admitted the quiet part out loud: their lawsuits are a carbon tax by another name. The Supreme Court must see through this scheme and shut it down before Americans are forced to pay the price.
Leaders should seek to unify people. Instead, California governor and likely 2028 presidential candidate Gavin Newsom is mired in identity politics, dividing his constituents into those entitled to privileges and subventions by reason of their melanin, sex, or sexual orientation – and those who are required to fund the largesse.
The Feast of Passover was the most sacred way the Jewish people worshipped God. It celebrated the end of their slavery in Egypt to freedom in the Promised Land.
But Saturday morning, we had no (working) car. Dad called his “MCPO man” (remember those commercials on WSRW?). He brought out a 1964 four-door Corvair. My parents bought it, and that was our car for the rest of the days on the farms.
With UN sanctions snapped back, the Trump administration should fully implement “maximum pressure” by synchronizing American and European efforts to cut off Iran’s energy exports and enforce strict bans on its nuclear and military ties with China, Russia, and North Korea.
The Federal Reserve cut interest rates last week, but the decision was far from unanimous. Two members of the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) dissented – an unusual occurrence that reveals deep disagreement about where the economy is heading.
My father was many things, longshoreman, clock maker, superintendent of a rooming house, inventor and patent attorney. He moved easily from one livelihood to another, never totally letting go of what he had been before.
The civic education crisis our country faces seems to us to be part of a larger cultural malaise – one that fails to foresee the consequences of our inactions in other realms of our society and, then once demonstrated, fails to do anything about them.
I want to reopen the government as soon as possible so federal workers can get paid, Americans receive the benefits they’ve earned on time and without delay, and Congress can get back to doing the work our constituents sent us to Washington to do for them.
