  • Backing the blue

    This week is National Police Week – a week that occurs every year to appreciate and thank our heroic law enforcement officers, as well as remember the officers who have been disabled or have tragically lost their lives in the line of duty.
  • Dems throw Fetterman under the bus: Biden 2.0
    This doesn’t have anything to do with his health. The left and their contemptuous allies are attacking him because they thought he was a progressive. Now, they’re furious that he’s not singing from their religious songbook. He voted for a few Trump nominees. He had dinner with his fellow Pennsylvania U.S. Senator – newly-elected Republican Dave McCormick. His most grievous sin: he’s the most outspoken, unapologetic Democratic defender of Israel and Jewish-Americans.
  • On the Moraine, Part XI
    We had not had the McNary Farm long when, one Saturday night, we made a social call. I would have been seven or eight years old.
  • A sermon on John 13:31-35

  • A tribute to mothers
    This May, as we honor mothers and women of faith, let us look to Mary, the first disciple, the generous servant, the Blessed Mother of God.
  • Stagflationary policy – the economy at a crossroad

  • The Louisiana Purchase and pragmatic presidential power

  • May flowers
    Yes, difficult times really are followed by better times. Hardship might be only temporary, beauty really will bloom again, and April showers will bring May flowers. For all of this, I am so very thankful.
  • Is there more to the Fetterman story?
    So, there’s something going on here, and it’s not just about an issue or position that Fetterman now espouses. Let’s hope Fetterman gets the help he needs – especially since it clearly helped him earlier.
  • Alcatraz
    Alcatraz was given up for Marion, Ill. because of cost. Alcatraz was three times more expensive to operate than any other federal prison. Everything that comes on and off the island is delivered by boat. This is expensive.
  • A pollution tariff would close China’s trade loopholes
    Adopting a pollution tariff sends an unequivocal message: America will no longer tolerate China’s pollution haven free ride.
  • In 'weird' Austin, a double shot of academic counter-revolution
    Zach Lacy, a UT-Austin sophomore triple-majoring in government, philosophy, and classical languages, said he was not exposed to a single “great book” in high school, and the School of Civic Leadership is unlike any other education he has experienced. 
  • First American pontiff says ‘build bridges’ to peace
    The first American pontiff in the 2,000-year history of the Roman Catholic Church offers a simple vision for the future: build bridges and receive each other with open arms.
  • Learning from Trump
    It’s not too late for you to get curious about the freedom of the press, the function of executive orders, the balance of powers, and the biases of media sources. It’s never too late to dig deeply, to learn joyfully, and to be curious about those with whom you disagree. A seventh-grader can do it. So can you.
  • Our automatic, hands-free world
    Trust and closeness in our neighborhoods, where we each care about the welfare of others on our street, is just about down the drain. How do we begin to turn this around? 
  • The 3 pillars of the American idea
    From their beginning, the purpose of the Progressives has been the step-by-step — that is, the progressive — undoing of the America of the founders. Their relentless campaign has done tremendous damage.
