  • Los Angeles Unified Schools' $18 billion budget won’t save district

    In what is certain to be financial history’s worst-ever return on investment, the Los Angeles Unified School District (LAUSD) unanimously approved an $18.8 billion budget.
  • America's two-tiered system of justice cannot stand
    How many more conservatives must have their Constitutional rights violated before Christopher Wray and Merrick Garland are removed from their positions? We are running out of time to restore trust in our federal law enforcement agencies and running out of patience with the stonewalling of agency leaders.
  • The truth is out there
    “You are being manipulated. But you already know that,” Ellmers writes. You might wonder what technological and social media-influenced manipulations have to do with political life; in reality, it has to do with everything. As Ellmers writes, “...Americans are lied to on a daily basis – by corporate advertisers, medical hucksters and spiritual charlatans, the sensationalist media, and of course the authorities in government.”
  • Whistleblower Appreciation Day July 30
    Whistleblowers play a crucial role by shining light on wrongdoing. As co-founder and co-chair of the Senate Whistleblower Protection Caucus, I reintroduced a bipartisan resolution to designate July 30 as “National Whistleblower Appreciation Day” for the 10th consecutive year. 
  • Conservatives fight secretive Biden voting order as 'Bidenbucks' 
    GOP lawmakers and other conservative critics are working to expose and fight a secretive executive order by President Biden to expand voter participation in elections, which they suspect has become a powerful government-wide complement to private left-wing election financing that could tip the 2024 campaign illegally and unfairly in Democrats’ favor. 
  • The 1735 Project: An introduction
    This essay and the series it inaugurates, The 1735 Project, is not about the failings of the two dominant political parties. Rather, it will focus on the media’s role in the degradation of U.S. politics and America’s national discourse. This endeavor, which will consist of numerous reported essays, is about the abdication of a responsibility that the press willingly — often courageously — shouldered throughout the 20th century.
  • Thoughts on human behavior
    A good friend who is willing to gossip with you, is usually willing to talk to another good friend about you. Remember, a juicy piece of gossip about you is often just too good not to share.
  • DeSantis: Nation's decline is not inevitable
    Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis said the country’s decline is a choice but is not inevitable in a speech Wednesday to the American Legislative Exchange Council.
  • The president’s failed economy
    As millions struggle, President Biden is making claims he can’t support. In a speech earlier this month in South Carolina, the president said of his economic agenda: “Our plan is working.” He claimed that his plan, nicknamed “Bidenomics,” is working “in rural America, the heartland, all across America.” As Nebraskans, we are the American heartland. From coffee shops to ranches to kitchen tables, we don’t think Bidenomics is working. 
  • Preventing manufacturing project delays 
    The Intel plant in Licking County is going to create at least 7,000 construction jobs for union Building Trades workers over the next 10 years, and will help develop the semiconductor chip supply chain in Ohio and position our state to lead in this crucial industry.
  • Take it from a coach: GOP can win by hitting singles
    Singles need to be strung together. But as a coach, I can tell you: we’re behind, they have a more expensive roster, and the umpire doesn’t like us. But if we play our game, we can win.
  • The forecast calls for heat and humidity
    We looked ahead to the long-range weather forecast and sighed to see that the auction was going to be held on the only relatively cool, dry day, for days to come. The rest of the forecast called for day after day of deplorable heat and high humidity, punctuated with occasional rain showers. 
  • A sermon on Matthew 13:44-46
    You must answer this question when you accept Jesus into your life: "What am I willing to do to enter Heaven?" Heaven is the pearl of great price. It is the hidden treasure in the field. How far will you go to possess it? 
  • EPA’s power grid assumptions disconnected from reality
    The new tailpipe emissions standard is so strict that it requires most new passenger vehicles sold to be electric vehicles (EVs) by 2030. It is a de facto EV mandate that will saddle the nation’s power grid with much more demand.
  • The American people are fed up with words; they deserve action
    We can't say we're against a two-tiered system of justice, and not hold this president and this Cabinet – Mayorkas, Garland – all of them accountable for targeting Americans and abandoning and endangering their country and making a mockery of the Constitution.
  • Will promised DeSantis reboot pay off in Iowa?
    You may have noticed that Ron DeSantis is a military man now. Not that it was ever a secret, exactly. DeSantis, who deployed to Iraq as a judge advocate general (“JAG”) officer in 2007, introduced himself to voters as “Ron DeSantis, Iraq War veteran” in his 2018 contest for Florida governor, and has made passing references to his decision to enlist at early campaign events this year.
