Republican Rep. Ann Wagner of Missouri went to the House floor on Jan. 11, 2023, to promote a bill she was sponsoring.

It focused on newborn babies.

"All children should be welcomed with joy and wonder, no matter the circumstances of their birth," she said. "Yet, too many of these sweet little ones are denied the medical care they need to ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- If you're a Republican, you've been through this drill before -- that moment when a group of establishment Republicans reveal that they are voting for a Democrat because they deem the GOP nominee to be unworthy.

They sign a group statement with a more-in-sorrow-than-in-anger pronouncement that surprises absolutely no one.

And ...Read more

Kamala Harris announced that her running mate will be Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz, who drew national huzzahs in the last few weeks for underlining the Democrat message that J.D. Vance is a major-league weirdo.

Vance congratulated Walz for the gig and lowered the boom: "Tim Walz allowed rioters to burn down Minneapolis in the summer of 2020, and the...Read more

President Joe Biden talked incessantly about his "from the middle class out" economic strategy. Given his record, it would have been more accurate to call it the "middle class down and out" plan. Inflation has eroded away any income gains under Biden's presidency.

Now Vice President Kamala Harris has her own riff on this theme. Her campaign ...Read more

The book "1984" is supposed to be a warning. Today's leftists are using it as an instruction manual.

George Orwell's classic novel is set in a dystopian world where Big Brother controls the population through information control and surveillance. See if any of this sounds familiar.

"Doublethink means the power of holding two contradictory ...Read more

For the past four years, inflation has rattled local small businesses across the country. The inflation rate peaked in 2022, but of course the cost of goods never went back down.

In fact, the prices just kept rising, just not at the same clip they had been rising at the peak.

In short, gas prices, food prices, housing prices, energy...Read more

WASHINGTON -- National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan fought to hold back tears Thursday as he talked about watching President Joe Biden on the phone informing the families of American hostages held in Russia that their loved ones would be free after a prisoner swap. It was a joyous occasion, topped only by the return of the hostages.

It was,...Read more

I've campaigned for this idea for over five years now. I've written commentaries about it. I've pitched it to politicians. I've screamed from the highest mountains on my TV and radio shows.

And this past Saturday, I made it my No. 1 story on my "America's Top Ten Countdown" show on Real America's Voice TV.

That's something I've never done ...Read more

Wholly unable to defend their actual record on pressing issues such as stagnating wages, soaring inflation, violent crime and mass illegal immigration, the Biden-Harris regime and its fourth-estate stenographers have deflected by ginning up an astroturfed hysteria over a random old TV clip from vice presidential contender J.D. Vance.

The ...Read more

It's difficult to make substantive arguments against the Democrats' Supreme Court "reform" proposal, since everyone knows it's just a cynical ploy to delegitimize both the court and the Constitution.

Ask yourself this: Would any Democrat support the president's court-packing scheme if they believed Republicans would win both Houses and the ...Read more

We have officially reached that late period in a presidential campaign where the thoroughly leftist national newspapers turn into partisan rags that coo and gush, this time over Vice President Kamala Harris. Consider the July 31 "Style" section of The Washington Post.

It began with a large color photograph of a Harris impersonator on TikTok ...Read more

Monday night's "White Dudes for Harris" Zoom call, with some 90,000 registered to participate, was surely a landmark in political history. Nearly 200 years ago, when the Democratic Party was being formed to elect and reelect Andrew Jackson, the entire American electorate, with exceptions, such as Black New Englanders, property-owning Black New ...Read more

When I worked at the University of Illinois, I had the great good fortune to befriend Ron Yates, who was at the time the dean of the College of Communications (later the College of Media).

Ron is an old-school journalist; he was educated and began his career at a time when the profession was known for serious (sometimes life-threatening) ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- Vice President Kamala Harris wants Americans to believe that she is not a progressive. Now that she's heading the Democratic ticket, she's all for securing the border, after all.

For many of us who've known her since the days she served as San Francisco district attorney and California attorney general, that's a tall order. ...Read more

Sometime before he withdrew from the presidential race, President Joe Biden secretly reaffirmed his own self-willed and self-created authority to kill persons in other countries, so long as the CIA and its military counterparts have "near certainty" that the target of the homicide is a member of a terrorist organization. That standard was ...Read more

President Joe Biden is an American hero in his own way.

To be sure, he is no George Washington, Thomas Jefferson or Abraham Lincoln. But as late Republican Sen. Roman Hruska observed about the U.S. Supreme Court justices, "We can't have all Brandeises and Frankfurters and Cardozos."

Biden withdrew his reelection bid on July 20 not because he...Read more

Republican vice presidential nominee J.D. Vance has been in the news for an old clip of him talking about how the tax code should punish adults without kids. While Vance's proposal probably aims to address demographic concerns, it represents a misguided approach that contradicts fundamental principles of economic freedom and fairness.

And you...Read more
