  • On Independence Day: George M. Cohan, the Yankee Doodle Boy

    George M. Cohan, the son of Irish immigrants – often described as the man who owned Broadway – dominated American theater from 1901 until 1940. During that four-decade period, the man born on the Fourth of July produced 80 Broadway shows, many of which he wrote himself, and wrote more than 1,000 songs. 
  • IEA’s net zero dream debunked as a nightmare
    During the Biden administration, American families have grown painfully aware of the role of energy in their lives. A series of domestic policy decisions surrendered American energy independence, contributed to 40-year-high inflation, and drove the price of a gallon of gasoline north of $5 per gallon. 
  • Union fights signal danger ahead for Bidenomics
    Only 24% of voters believe the country is on the right track, with 38.3% approving of Biden’s handling of the economy, according to RealClearPolitics’ poll average. The White House this week put a far glossier spin on its inflation record.
  • Agendas run rampant over science in Biden Administration
    The Biden administration often decries “misinformation” about anything contradicting its own narratives, but it appears to be one of the worst purveyors of misinformation. Citizens can’t trust a government that misrepresents the results of studies, or prevents the collection of, or even intentionally hides, data.
  • The sad state of American journalism
    Readers of RealClearPolitics, the NY Post, Wall Street Journal, and a handful of other mostly online outlets are aware of the cascading evidence of massive corruption by President Biden and his family. But if you get your news from ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, NPR, the Washington Post, or the New York Times, you have quite possibly not been aware of it. The worst aspect is that these and other legacy media have been acting as a kind of journalistic cabal from 2016 until the present moment.
  • A modest proposal to avert future budget crises
    It's business as usual these days in Washington: months of procrastinating as a looming fiscal disaster roils the markets, followed by a last-minute deal that nobody really likes, only to set another deadline for the next fiscal crisis.
  • Protecting Second Amendment rights for disabled veterans
    As enshrined in the Constitution, the Second Amendment guarantees law-abiding citizens of the United States the right to bear arms. Freedom and personal responsibility are pillars of our nation, and the Second Amendment must be protected, especially for those who suffered injury or were disabled while serving in our armed forces protecting the freedom of others.
  • Conduct Board issues advisory opinions
    The Ohio Board of Professional Conduct has issued four advisory opinions, including two new opinions that address the application of the Code of Judicial Conduct to mayor’s courts magistrates and a lawyer’s responsibilities when responding to a subpoena for a former client’s file.
  • Why tech startups are failing
    Over roughly a decade, U.S. courts and Congress have gradually devalued patents and diminished their reliability. Diminishing the certainty and security of patents radically discourages venture capitalists from investing in startups – especially in the highest-tech fields.
  • Advancing bills to combat fentanyl, hold bank executives accountable

  • A sermon on Matthew 10:37-42
    One day, a little 6-year-old boy held a dollar bill in his hand. He went to the shop owners along the street asking, "Excuse me, do you sell God?"
  • The Purple Presidency 2024: How voters can reclaim the White House
    An independent third candidate approach will require an ironclad moderate/centrist platform that tracks what both parties’ voters consistently say they want – lower deficits and inflation, border security combined with a welcome mat for lawful immigrants, progress vs. climate change while maintaining energy security, lower violent crime and a solvent Social Security system.
  • House measures restore common sense
    House Republicans passed a common-sense, bipartisan resolution,  H.Res. 461, to condemn these reckless measures at the federal level. We also passed H.R. 3564 – The Middle Class Borrower Protection Act of 2023. This bipartisan bill eliminates new Biden administration taxes on creditworthy homebuyers, that are used to subsidize those with risky loans.
  • Rescues: Who pays?
    Last week, the attempted rescue of four playboys and a youth in a private sub off the wreckage of the Titanic pushed most other things – even Donald Trump – out of the headlines. We sucked in information with great interest; the news pundits and their experts weighed in. I may have missed it, but I didn’t hear anyone questioning the expense of the rescue nor ask who is paying the bill.  
  • Disarm the IRS
    Since 2006, the IRS has doled out more than $35 million of your tax dollars for firearms, ammunition, and tactical gear, including $10 million in weaponry and equipment since 2020 alone. You’d think this federal agency was preparing for battle!
  • Why we need the Women’s Bill of Rights
    The need to make clear that a woman is a woman and a man is a man would have been inconceivable 50 years ago – but this is where we are today. We need the Women’s Bill of Rights to unblur the line between the sexes and to set out plainly the necessary definitions to ensure privacy, safety, and equal opportunity, both on and off the field, for women.
