Trump is the World's Worst Dictator
Dictators crave power. President Donald Trump is using his power to give Americans more freedom. That's a massive difference.
Desperate to find an effective attack against Trump, some Democrats are recycling an old one. They claim he's an authoritarian. Rep. Ayanna Pressley, D-Mass., invited laid-off federal workers to attend Trump's recent ...Read more
The Headlines Have Caught Up to Mike Rowe. Now What?
JOHNSTOWN, Pennsylvania -- Alex Bambino, 21, is the son of two educators. He's busy working, welding a piece of material that will be used on a heavily armored military vehicle when finished. Despite two college-educated parents, who teach at the local Cambrian County schools, he wanted nothing to do with college following high school.
"I ...Read more

Reparations Are a Bad Idea
A new law, buried inside an otherwise obscure piece of federal legislation, permits the Washington, D.C., City Council to establish a commission that will give “reparations” to descendants of enslaved people who can demonstrate how slavery and Jim Crow laws have negatively affected their lives. Talk about a high bar.
The 12-member ...Read more
To Soak the Rich, Tax University Endowments!
Republicans are searching for ways to "pay for" their tax cuts. Democrats want the rich to pay more tax. Here's a solution that should make everyone happy.
House Ways and Means Committee Chairman Jason Smith is suggesting a tax on the $840 billion college endowments. These endowments will soon eclipse $1 trillion in size -- more money than the ...Read more
Always Bet on Trump! Why This Is the Greatest Buying Opportunity of Our Lifetimes! Maybe in the History of America!
This commentary is a joint effort by two veterans of business and investing. We've both been in the business of making money, starting businesses, running businesses, raising money and investing money for over 80 combined years.
And we both agree that President Donald Trump's landslide election mandate, brilliant economic agenda and business ...Read more
Trump Promised Us Stability, Not Economic Chaos
President Donald Trump's fixation with tariffs is reminiscent of the Democrats' self-destructive crusade to pass the Inflation Reduction Act under former President Joe Biden. The Left treated the partisan spending bill as a moral imperative, even though honest economists across the spectrum warned that dumping hundreds of billions of dollars ...Read more
Trump's Pick to Head NIH Did Not Follow the COVID Herd
WASHINGTON -- When Stanford epidemiologist Jay Bhattacharya challenged COVID lockdown orthodoxy in 2020, critics glued posters of his face across the campus -- which he saw as an incitement to violence -- and colleagues tried to marginalize him for spreading misinformation.
It didn't matter that he was right.
But it matters now. President ...Read more
The Democratic Fork in the Road and the Woke Repudiation Imperative
Yogi Berra, the mid-century New York Yankees Hall of Fame catcher known for his pithy and often humorous life observations, once famously quipped: "When you come to a fork in the road, take it." It was sound advice, perhaps, for a traveler on the go and in search of a quick meal. But the modern Democratic Party, rudderless and confused and ...Read more
The Poisoning of the Democrat Mind
On Tuesday night, President Donald Trump stood in the House of Representatives and introduced DJ Daniel, a 13-year-old boy battling brain cancer who desperately wants to be a police officer. His local police department made DJ an honorary officer. Last year, a video went viral of people ridiculing DJ for proudly wearing his uniform. He went ...Read more
Celebrating Sen. Slotkin's Shameless Speech
Everyone knows that winning the assignment of officially responding to a State of the Union speech can be a curse, not a blessing. But it depends on which party is responding.
Last year, the media ripped apart freshman Sen. Katie Britt (R-Ala.) as a ditz. PBS analyst Jonathan Capehart made a "Legally Blonde" joke: "After watching Sen. Britt, I ...Read more
Where Would Trump Be Without His Spineless Defenders?
It's amazing how men who prided themselves on strength and toughness will submit to a gangster.
In 2022, after Russian tanks rolled across an international border into Ukraine and missiles pierced the quiet of cities like Kharkiv and Kyiv, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy earned worldwide acclaim for his courage and heroism. No one was...Read more
A Formidable President Storms Ahead
Some thoughts spring to mind after President Donald Trump's 100-minute address to Congress.
The first is that this 78-year-old man has amazing resilience and perseverance. Consider that in the past 12 months, he has had to spend hours listening to a kangaroo court proceeding before a hostile judge in New York, has maintained a campaign rally ...Read more
Trump Is Good at the Game of Politics. Leadership, Not So Much.
SAN DIEGO -- In politics, as in life, nothing is 100% good or bad. If you believe otherwise, it's time to check your bias and blindspots.
Take the chaotic second term of President Donald Trump. There are good things happening. You just have to look hard to find them.
I've been on the lookout. Fairness demands it. So does my own desire to ...Read more
Taking Rights Seriously
"If all mankind minus one were of one opinion,
and only one person were of the contrary opinion,
Mankind would be no more justified
In silencing that one person,
Than he, if he had the power,
Would be justified in silencing mankind."
-- John Stuart Mill (1806-1873)
The world is filled with self-evident truths -- truisms -- that ...Read more
Socialism Is a False Dawn
The evidence has been conclusive from time immemorial.
Economic systems flourish with private incentives that gratify the innate craving for material acquisitions. Adam Smith called it an "invisible hand" in his landmark "Wealth of Nations," gospel for the nation's founders. Merchants or professionals can become rich only by satisfying the ...Read more
Grappling with DOGE: Why Cutting Waste and Fixing Entitlements Are Both Essential
The Department of Government Efficiency draws two extreme reactions from budget-focused observers.
On one side, you have cynics rolling their eyes and arguing that the truly consequential problem is not overpriced government boondoggles but rather entitlements like Medicare and Social Security and interest on the national debt.
On the other,...Read more
What's Behind Democrats' Dominance and Collapse
At this writing, legacy and social media are filled with stories about President Donald Trump's phenomenally successful address before Congress Tuesday night, and congressional Democrats' pathetic and embarrassing display. In addition to Rep. Al Green's antics and the little protest paddles Democrat senators and representatives waved, they ...Read more
Ukraine's Collision of Truths
During his remarkable March 4 address to Congress, President Donald Trump said this about his efforts to end the Russia-Ukraine War: "If you want to end wars, you have to talk to both sides."
That's the truth for would-be peacemakers in any era. For what it's worth, a 2002 peacemaking handbook sponsored by the Anglican Church of Kenya said as...Read more
The Democrats in Disarray
This week, I had the opportunity to attend President Donald Trump's address to a joint session of Congress as a guest of Speaker of the House Mike Johnson. The energy in the room was palpable ... at least on the Republican side. But while Republicans celebrated their 2024 election victory and cheered Trump's list of accomplishments, Democrats ...Read more

Trump Was Awful, but Elissa Slotkin Hit a Homer
It was as predictable as a rom-com — just as surely as you knew they’d end up together, we knew how President Trump’s first speech to Congress was going to go.
It was full of Trumpisms — partisan jabs, personal attacks, ...Read more
