Our country faces some serious problems today, as it has throughout its history. One of the most serious, one that claims the lives of thousands of Americans each year, is death from opioid overdoses.
Many Democrats and liberals are driving themselves and everyone else crazy over Donald Trump. It's not because he's so bad but because they simply don't like him, and as president good things have been accomplished.
Millions of Americans hate big corporations, suspect them of acting in their own best interest (to the detriment of the rest of us), and delight in corporations being put in their place.
Why is it that leftists feel it's necessary to put their fingers on the scale to tip it in their favor, or will work to change the rules to achieve their purposes, with little or no hesitation in doing so?
Which of the following situations is worse? 1. A woman and her child cross the U.S.-Mexico border illegally, and as a result the mother is separated from her child. 2. A man enters the country illegally and remains in the U.S. for several years, and then kills an American citizen.
A recent poll reflects that 53% of Democrats now view socialism favorably, while 47% view capitalism favorably, almost an exact flip from a 2012 poll.
Did you see anything in the news of the compound in New Mexico where 11 young people ages one to 15 years old were being held in squalid conditions, and at least one of them was being instructed on how to shoot up a school? This is not just speculation; the information came from court records filed last week.
The U.S. Constitution's guarantees of important rights is a major factor in making America a great nation. The First Amendment is especially important, as it guarantees us the right to free speech, religious beliefs, and a free press, among other things.
One thing about President Donald Trump that almost nobody would argue about is that he leads the nation in the number of critics he has, which many say he has rightfully earned. Be they from the Left or the Right, Trump has more than his share of critics, and it is painfully obvious that the Left, especially, doesn't like him.
The nomination by President Donald Trump of highly respected Federal Judge Brett Kavanaugh to the U.S. Supreme Court is yet another opportunity for hysteria to invade the world of entertainers.
Why is it that so many Americans do not understand or appreciate the First Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, which guarantees several rights, including the right to free speech, which some credit as the guardian of all our freedoms?
Presidents have the duty to nominate persons to fill federal judiciary vacancies. Each of our 45 presidents made judicial appointments, and all but four nominated at least one justice for the U.S. Supreme Court.
Here is some important information about illegal aliens in the country.
America rose to world prominence because of its unique constitutional structure and allegiance to personal freedom. Over recent decades we have watched as those traditional values that evolved out of that unique national structure have gradually been pushed aside. Over the last 10 or so years, that devolution has had its accelerator pedal pushed to the floor.
Two groups of Americans that deserve and need the government's attention are veterans, who have put their lives and their well-being on the line to defend their country, and retirees, who had some of their earnings taken through payroll deductions to provide for their future when they cannot or no longer work to support themselves.
American workers have the option to belong to a labor union if they so choose. A spirited debate exists over the good and bad things that result from union activity, and there are valid arguments on each side.
Recognizing that secure borders are essential to a free and safe country, President Donald Trump is insistent on securing our borders, particularly the southern one, and would gladly build a wall to accomplish that necessary goal.
The New York Times recently published a profile piece on clinical psychologist Jordan B. Peterson, claiming Peterson is the "pedigreed voice" of those cretins who wish to undermine efforts by liberals to promote equality.
What is it about Barack Obama and members of his now blessedly former administration that causes them to plague the nation with their opinions on the words, deeds and thoughts of President Donald Trump? What prevents them from doing what nearly all members of previous administrations have done: return gracefully to the life of a private citizen and keep quiet about the successor's presidency?
