  • Only citizens should vote in America

    Congress should move this month to block the DC politicians’ effort to let non-citizens vote in our national capital. Congress should also pass a law making it illegal for non-citizens to cast ballots in federal elections.
  • Sorry President Biden, but nobody wants a glorified golf cart
    Back in February Biden praised ChargePoint, which operates the nation’s largest public network of EV charging stations, for demonstrating that his efforts had “spurred network operators to accelerate the buildout of coast-to-coast EV charging networks.” Oops! ChargePoint’s stock value had dropped from a high of $46.10 per share in December 2020 to just $2.24 per share in December 2023, down nearly 75% in this year alone. CEO Pasquale Romano has stepped down, and the company is facing a class action lawsuit.
  • Asking, assuming or demanding
    Common courtesy and common sense combined with open communication goes a long way to having family times that everyone enjoys.
  • Global conflicts expose dire U.S. munitions shortage, Part 2
    The United States military is severely short on high-end and artillery munitions at a crucial and strategic moment. As the calendar turns to 2024, Ukraine, using bombs and bullets from the United States, continues its slog of a war with Russia with no foreseeable end. Simultaneously, the U.S. continues sending artillery rounds to Israel amidst the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) assault on Hamas in Gaza. 
  •  The FBI-tainted Whitmer 'kidnap plot' you've heard nothing about
    The FBI’s tactics were first exposed by BuzzFeed in July 2021, when reporters Ken Bensinger and Jessica Garrison disclosed startling details based on court filings as the matter headed to trial. They found that the number of FBI confidential human sources involved in the scheme was equal to the number of defendants.
  • If voters don’t care about saving Social Security, politicians won't either
    Despite all of the data presented annually to Washington, the issue of Social Security reform remains nearly invisible. Democrats are collectively $10 trillion apart on what benefits the program should provide. Essentially, they aren’t talking about a solution. They are trying to figure-out what problem must be solved.
  • Speaker: Border security top priority for Congress in 2024
    Rep. Mike Johnson called on the president to end the Obama-era catch-and-release policy it reinstated after the Trump administration abolished it, and to turn back or detain all illegal foreign nationals apprehended between ports of entry.
  • Like it or not, 2024 is the Year of Trump
    To put it plainly, the poll shows Trump leading by 34 percentage points, a lead which is virtually unheard of in a contested primary. It is highly unlikely that Trump will lose, and if his lead remains anywhere near 34 points on Caucus Day – and he runs the table in New Hampshire eight days later – then the race is effectively over.
  • A sermon for the Epiphany Matthew 2:1-12
    This wise man taught me that even when our sky is at its darkest, there is a star called faith that leads us to the Christ. Keep the faith.
  • Too-high inflation and declining credit ratings warrant action, not celebration
    The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) November figures for the Consumer Price Index (CPI), a common measure of inflation, showed a 12-month rise in prices of 3.1 percent. This rate is still far too high, holding above the target inflation rate of 2 percent, and it continues to negatively ripple through our economy.
  • Waste of the Day: Planned Parenthood, other abortion providers got $2 billion from taxpayers
    Here's a breakdown of federal funding to Planned Parenthood: reimbursements from Medicaid, Medicare, and CHIP Reimbursements ($1.5 billion), federal funding in grants and cooperative agreements ($148.5 million), and loans forgiven in the Paycheck Protection Program ($90.4 million).
  • New year, same focus
    As we look at making cuts, I’ll work to ensure we aren’t giving anyone a free pass to leech off their neighbors’ taxes. Americans should be productive members of society, and we must instill values of hard work in younger generations, as they’ll soon lead the nation. 
  • A year of accomplishments
    As we return to work for the second session of the 118th Congress, I hope the Senate will come to the table and try to move some of these critical legislative items for the American people. In the interim, House Republicans remain committed to continue working to pass legislation to secure the southern border, fight inflation, reject Bidenomics and much more.
  • IOC leaders must make difficult decisions
    The situation today transcends logistics or politics; it's about upholding the unifying spirit of sport, a spirit grievously undermined in the tragic 1972 Munich Olympics. The IOC must now rise to the occasion, honoring its commitment to athletes’ safety and the sanctity of fair play.
  • Glorious mud
    There has hardly been any sunshine of late and not only has the sky been gloomy and gray, it has rained – a lot. I feel as though every time I venture outside I am playing an endless game of hopscotch. I carefully navigate from one dryish patch of less muddy ground to another.
  • Environmentalist in the checkout lane
    My environmental friends, the ones who are still talking to me after similar discussions to this above, ask me what it will take for me to believe in global warming (now called climate change, since the rise seems to be in doubt among even the staunches acolytes). My answer? When the full third week in February in Cleveland averages a daytime temperature of 85 F, I am fully on board.
