  • Fiscal responsibility demands accountability

    For too long, a lack of accountability has darkened our fiscal future. To overcome our serious economic challenges, we must restore accountability, rein in federal spending, and spur economic growth. 
  • Hunter’s wonderful life
    In a new court filing, Hunter lamented that his art sales are down 98%, no one will hire him to give speeches, he has millions in debt, and the dog ate his homework (I made up the last one). Even worse, the District of Columbia Bar is investigating whether to disbar him, though a RealClearInvestigations report led by Paul Sperry suggests the result may be a whitewash that spares Hunter the usual consequences of his sordid past.
  • Congress should pass Antisemitism Awareness Act
    Passing the AAA will help to counter the current surge of antisemitism in the U.S. As the Republican administration seeks to ensure that college campuses and other federally funded institutions protect their Jewish populace, Congress has the chance to support that mission in a bipartisan way. Lawmakers should not hesitate.
  • A sermon on Luke 13:1-9
    Satan tries to take your eyes off the heavenly road. Repentance gives the clear vision to get you back on the right road to Jesus when you realize afterward you're lost on a detour called sin.  
  • The Democrats’ path out of the wilderness
    Perhaps CNN’s Jake Tapper will reveal all in his forthcoming book, “Original Sin: President Biden’s Decline, It’s Cover-Up and His Disastrous Choice to Run Again.” But that seems unlikely given how complicit he and his legacy media colleagues were in dismissing the president’s obvious decline. If they had their way, Biden would be embarking now on his second term.
  • The week ahead in economic data
    This week’s economic calendar is packed with key reports and influential Fed speeches – and all eyes will be on the Fed’s decision at the Federal Open Market Committee meeting.
  • Trump and the economy: Opportunities and risks
    Those regular Americans elected President Trump because they remember the success they enjoyed in his first term, and they rightly believe in his ability to lift America out of Biden’s created quagmire. Now, the country needs all of Washington, from the White House to DOGE to Congress, to embrace this economic mission with the highest possible urgency. 
  • A little rain
    I wonder if this is what it's like to work inside a magic bubble. The rain pours down outside and beats on the glazed roof. It falls in wind-driven sheets. 
  • Green bean cans and eternity
    Where does a person go after death? We need to understand one thing from the beginning. 
  • Securing American agriculture
    Last week, I introduced the Securing American Agriculture Act with Democrat Elissa Slotkin of Michigan. Our bipartisan, bicameral bill will bolster and protect our food and agricultural supply chains. It will also reduce our reliance on foreign adversaries. 
  • Some DOGE and other wishes
    It is difficult to find an exact number of federal workers fired by DOGE thus far. What with judges overturning executive branch decisions (how is that even possible?) and general confusion in the reporting, one can make the case for perhaps 200,000.  
  • DOGE: Since when is saving taxpayers’ money a bad thing?
    The system is broken. DOGE is one part of the answer. The time for partisan politics, TikTok videos, and “paddle” protests is over. Democrats should lead, follow, or get out of the way.
  • A new beltway mystery: Follow the Biden EPA money
    When the Biden administration announced $27 billion in environmental grants last April, it set the clock ticking on a predicament: how to get the unprecedented sums for the president's envisioned NetZero future out the door before the fiscal year ended on Sept. 30? The task was complicated by the fact most of the money – $20 billion – would go to just eight nonprofits that, like the Environmental Protection Agency itself, had never handled such gargantuan grants.
  • Jay Bhattacharya’s confirmation hearing: A masterclass in why the NIH needs reform
    If America is serious about reversing the chronic disease epidemic and restoring public trust in science, confirming Jay Bhattacharya as NIH director is not just the right move — it’s essential.
  • Forget the negative income tax, how about a negative tariff?
    With negative tariffs, Americans would be even more inundated with the world’s plenty, and the reward would be freedom to do what they do best. In academic terms, imagine never having to take a math class again, or imagine always having to take math classes. The latter is the tariff equivalent.
  • The AI integration crisis: A special operator’s view from the tactical edge
    Our adversary’s vessels, equipped with edge-processed AI systems, could analyze and react to pattern changes in seconds. Meanwhile, our “advanced” AI capabilities required reaching back to a server farm thousands of miles away. By the time we completed our manual cross-referencing of five different intelligence feeds, the target had vanished into the cluttered maritime environment.
