Americans want to help people in need, but when government does that, about 500 billion taxpayer dollars get stolen. It's how the system is designed, says the United Council on Welfare Fraud's Andrew McClenahan in this new video. "You're measuring success by the amount of money you put out." Because of that, government agencies rarely check ...Read more

We can revere the philosophical argument about the importance of a free press in keeping democracy viable without thinking every lost job at a media outlet is the decline and fall of America.

The Washington Post just cut 300 jobs -...Read more

When I first arrived in Washington in 1982, the Dow Jones hit a low of 800. You may not believe that, so feel free to look it up.

If anyone had predicted that in a little more four decades the Dow would surpass 50,000, they might have been admitted into a mental institution. But U.S. stocks have grown 60-fold (not counting inflation). Even ...Read more

President Donald Trump isn't just deporting illegal immigrants. He's deporting the people Democrats need to offset their demographic challenges.

The Census Bureau recently released updated population figures through June 2025. The country grew slightly but that growth wasn't equally distributed. Many red states, like South Carolina, Idaho and...Read more

A few years ago, things looked pretty bleak for skeptics of transgenderism -- those of us who have great compassion for those afflicted by what the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders long referred to as the "disorder" of gender dysphoria, but who refuse to accept the lie that a man can become a woman or a woman can become a ...Read more

In December of 2016, The Washington Post reported that Russian hackers had penetrated the U.S. electricity grid through a Vermont utility company, leaving millions without heat.

This was serious stuff. President Barack Obama, the paper ominously noted, was concerned that Moscow might also "disrupt the counting of votes on Election Day, ...Read more

Speaking at The New York Times, their actually conservative columnist Ross Douthat said, "I want to tell you a secret. One that most conservatives on the internet don't want you to know. A year into his second presidency, Donald Trump has lost the country." You might not want to hear this, but Douthat is right.

Perhaps he is not right on the ...Read more

The unrest in Minneapolis has died down, and the Trump administration is pulling 700 immigration-enforcement offers out of the area. But all of the national media scrutiny has obsessed over Team Trump. They have rarely acted to "hold government accountable" when the governing comes from Democrats, Gov. Tim Walz or Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.

George Orwell was on to it almost 80 years ago -- the problem of below-replacement level birth rates. In a short book written for the Britain in Pictures series in 1947, written just as Britain was emerging from wartime rigors into an uncharted postwar future, Orwell noted that despite an upward blip in birth rates during the war, "the general...Read more

Virginia is the new Illinois.

They want to go from a congressional delegation with 6 Democrats and 5 Republicans -- broadly ...Read more

Legal scholars have many lenses through which to examine the Constitution. Lawyers need to master about 150 Supreme Court decisions in order to have a sufficient understanding of the government. But most of what lawyers have studied is theory -- how the Constitution is supposed to work, as opposed to how it actually does work. This "supposed ...Read more

Americans are often warned about the dangers of overreaction, hysteria or xenophobia, and rightly so. But there is an equal danger in denial. What the country has witnessed over the past several years is not a series of disconnected curiosities, nor the product of political imagination. It is a pattern of incursions, violations and ...Read more

When government grows to dominate ever-larger shares of the economy, and when politicians refuse to be responsible about what they spend, there's a predictable next move: Insist that the problem is "the rich" not paying enough. Never mind that high earners already shoulder a disproportionate share of the tax burden. Never mind that relying on ...Read more

The Bible is filled with accounts of powerful people being brought low by those whom they deemed to be of lower status. In Paul's first Letter to the Corinthians, he states that this is all part of God's plan:

"Consider your own calling, brothers and sisters. Not many of you were wise by human standards, not many were powerful, not many were ...Read more
