If the president cannot uphold his duties, Congress must step in. I intend to lead a sustained inquiry into the outstanding questions from this debacle. I will also provide several amendments in this year’s NDAA to improve our homeland and missile defense protocols and capabilities.

Smaller companies, lacking cash reserves or multiple product lines to fall back on, are at greatest risk of being driven out of business by the IRA. But it's actually small biotech companies, many of them startups, that drive essential innovation and competition, accounting for more than half of new medicines.

The legislation, Ending Trading and Holdings in Congressional Stocks Act, or ETHICS Act for short, would prohibit members of Congress, their spouses and dependent children from owning or trading securities, commodities or futures.

History does not provide many bright lines. It is far easier to identify correlation than causation in its movements. But as we consider the plummeting interest in the study of English and history, we should note how helpful this is to the forces of the left, who control our college and universities. The less we know about the past, the more they can shape the future.

What if President Joe Biden declared a national emergency over gun violence? The White House didn't respond to an email asking if Biden had considered such an option. When a president declares a national emergency, there are at least 135 statutory powers that could be made available, according to the Brennan Center.

This year everyone (who pays taxes) knows that Tuesday, April 18 was Tax Day. What we need to know is that Dec. 31, 2025, will be a devastating day for most taxpayers – Tax Armageddon Day. As Franklin warned, “nothing can be said to be certain, except death and taxes.” However, Dec. 31, 2025 doesn’t have to be a fait accompli, not if Congress acts and the American people go to the polls in 2024 knowing that tax hikes are coming in 2026.

As Greg and I walked out the door of the century old pump house, the four triple-steam engines resting quietly behind me, I thought of my Nana. I so wished that I could call her up, and tell her about my amazing day and the 104-foot tall engines that had been constructed inside a pump house that rests six feet below the river’s bottom.

The federal government used the once-in-a-century pandemic as an excuse to cover up decades of overspending by politicians at the state level. Over the last several years, we’ve also seen an enormous increase in the level of federal grants made to state and local governments.

If Biden’s program is to be implemented without crashing America’s power grid, what is required is a total reversal of the regulatory state’s War on Energy. Furthermore, if the electrification of transportation is to actually result in a reduction of carbon emissions, the vast amount of new capacity required will need to come from a carbon-free source. The only way to do that is through nuclear power.

Twenty years of policy and effort obviously bear the mark of multiple administrations and Congresses. However, as Commander in Chief, President Biden cannot point fingers and blame anyone else for this national embarrassment of this ending but himself. His failure on the international stage has surely and certainly emboldened our enemies.

“You have this man, who dresses up like a girl, and clearly makes a mockery of women – it’s just not right,” Nikki Haley told RCP. “Feminist groups who claim to be pro-women have gone silent. We need to use the power of our voice to call this out.”

This week (April 20, 2023), it will be 21 months until the next U.S. presidential inauguration. What are some possible scenarios between now and then?

It is foolish to think I am in charge of me own life. I make God laugh every time I tell him my plans. 

Pentagon Spokesperson John Kirby had the audacity to state that he was proud of the withdrawal from Afghanistan. This followed the release of a report from the Biden administration that lays the blame for this withdrawal at the feet of President Trump, taking little to no responsibility. This is a sign of failed leadership.
