“The fallen ask for no tribute in return. They do not ask for our tears, though we shed them. They do not ask for monuments, though we build them. They ask only one thing, that we live lives worthy of the freedom they left behind.”

Since the founding of our great nation, men and women have selflessly chosen to serve our country as a part of the Armed Forces.

Freedom isn’t free. Memorial Day reminds us that the cost of those liberties were paid by individuals who had dreams, families and futures that were willingly forfeited so that we may be free to live out our own.

The government has a knack for finding the least efficient way to solve a problem, and that’s certainly the case for how Washington deals with diabetes care in America.

During the Biden years, government officials routinely pressured social media companies to silence Americans for questioning the official response to COVID-19. One Biden staffer – Deputy Assistant to the President Rob Flaherty – even dropped an F-bomb in an email to Meta, parent company of Facebook and Instagram, inquiring why a post he “requested” be taken down was still up.

The message to U.S. citizenry is to give "back to their country, which provides them so much freedom and opportunity" by encouraging Memorial Day activities. The commission also endorsed a National Moment of Remembrance at 3 p.m. local time each Memorial Day, a minute of silence for those who have died in service to the nation.

The governor’s approach, while it may be well intentioned, does not allow needed research or full public debate, short-circuiting the process Ohio needs. If the state is serious about limited government, scientific evidence, and public accountability, let the Legislature lead. 

On its face, this is progress worth applauding. Grade inflation is no victimless crime. It erodes the signaling value of a Harvard degree. When nearly every transcript is dominated by A’s, employers struggle to distinguish genuine excellence from mere competence. Most of all, students are cheated. They receive false confidence, graduate with weaker preparation, and enter a competitive world unprepared.

Data center developers are increasingly targeting agricultural land for new projects, and residents in affected communities are mounting opposition, concerned about the industrialization of their farmland.

Citizens throughout Ohio are against the onslaught of data centers and BESS facilities in our state, especially in our beautiful rural home and farm areas. I ask that you become very involved in this process on behalf of the citizens you were elected to represent. 

We got out on U.S. 27 headed toward the Great Miami River, on the west side of Cincinnati. Now I ran and the chicken flew. She kept looking back to see if the rats had followed us.   

To the AOCs, Sanderses, Mamdani, and DSA activists: I ask you, as a man who buried brothers in the long fight against tyranny and totalitarianism, to look in the mirror. You claim moral superiority – caring for the poor, fighting inequality. But intentions don’t rewrite economics or history.

If Democrats get their way, they may not only take over the House this fall. They will have created a new custom: elections never end. Power brokers will politicize the census, courts, and agencies to continuously design and redesign congressional seats to win and hold on to power. The old ways were imperfect, but better. The parties fought. Then elections were held – and we all tried to keep the courts as removed from party fights as possible.

Contrary to the claims of critics, the court did not take away anyone’s right to vote. Nor did it repeal the Voting Rights Act. What it did was recognize that the Constitution places limits on how far government may go in using race as a political tool – even for ostensibly benevolent purposes.

On the evening of His Resurrection, Jesus appeared to His Apostles who were scared out of their wits. He came to show them He truly is alive. He came to offer them forgiveness. When Jesus said, "Peace be with you," He was also implying, "I forgive you for deserting Me. I forgive you for when I needed you the most you abandoned Me."
