Three years ago, we had the great pleasure of hosting Emma, a 16-year-old young woman from Magdeburg, Germany, who decided to attend a year of high school here in the United States. Emma was in the same class and on the school swim team with our daughter Celeste, and when Emma's initial family placement did not work out for logistical reasons ...Read more

On July 8, Reuters reported Belarus and China were conducting joint military exercises a few kilometers from the Belarus-Poland border.

No one sane would associate the exercise's code name, Falcon Assault, with peace-keeper training.

Poland also borders Ukraine, which is due south of Belarus. In February 2022, Russian tanks and mechanized ...Read more

Homelessness, unfortunately, has become a persistent and growing problem in the United States.

The Supreme Court, in City of Grants Pass v. Johnson, just dealt with one big issue associated with this problem -- the ability of cities to prohibit camping on public property.

Per the city of Grants Pass, Oregon, the answer has been that the ...Read more

President Joe Biden is incapable of governing. Americans can see it, and perilously our adversaries can too. The U.S. Constitution spells out a remedy in the 25th Amendment. But a constitution is just a piece of paper, only as good as the people who have taken an oath to live by it. For the 25th Amendment to work requires selfless patriotism -...Read more

Joe Biden and Donald Trump fight about everything. But they agree about one thing: tariffs, the subject of my new video. Trump imposed tariffs on steel, aluminum, washing machines, solar panels and other products from China. Then Biden took office and slapped a 100% tariff on Chinese electric vehicles. Now Trump says, if elected, he'll impose ...Read more

With the revelation over the past two weeks that President Joe Biden is mentally and physically diminished, Democrats have traveled through all five stages of grief; first, they experienced denial; then anger; then bargaining; next, depression; finally, acceptance. But what they're accepting is not Joe Biden's mental decline. What they're ...Read more

Does anybody remember the gentle days of political humor when Johnny Carson was the King of Late Night? Today's late-night environment is largely a nasty gang of hardened leftists (with Jimmy Fallon being the closest to the Carson model).

A new Media Research Center study by Alex Christy found the political tilt of guests (with a political ...Read more

WASHINGTON -- Joe Biden has made it clear that despite his dismal, embarrassing, very faltering debate performance last month, he's running. The president may not be able to finish two sentences without stumbling or needing cue cards, but Scranton Joe is not going down without a fight.

He told fellow Democrats as much in a letter Monday ...Read more

Caitlin Clark's popularity shows sexism isn't holding back the WNBA.

Earlier this month, the Las Vegas Aces thumped the Indiana Fever, 88-69. But the score wasn't the big story. The massive crowd was. It was a sellout crowd of 20,366. It was the most people to watch a WNBA regular season game since 1999.

The biggest draw was Clark, the ...Read more

HARRISBURG, Pennsylvania -- Pretty much every elected Democrat in Pennsylvania was out in force on Sunday standing shoulder-to-shoulder with President Joe Biden at different venues as he made his way from Philadelphia to the state capital, starting what his supporters here called his comeback moment.

Speaking to campaign volunteers and ...Read more

Almost anyone who has graduated from college in the last 50 years has repeatedly heard the statement, "More people have been killed in the name of God than in the name of anything else." And most of them believe it.

It would take a long essay to respond to this claim. I will therefore only note here that if by "God" the people who make this ...Read more

The latest official employment report finds once again that the federal government and state-local hiring spree is still in full gear. Over the past year, health care and government hiring has outpaced every private sector industry. It isn't just the IRS bringing on thousands of new workers. The bloat is everywhere.

So even though there are a ...Read more

Lying is certainly nothing new in politics. It is said that prostitution is the world's oldest profession, but politics is assuredly the dirtiest -- filthier even than garbageman, mortician or, well, the world's oldest profession itself.

Former President Bill Clinton (while we're on the topic of sexual promiscuity) perjured ...Read more

Carl Bernstein of Watergate fame recently told CNN views that people close to President Joe Biden -- people "who loved him, have supported him, and among them are some people who would raise a lot of money for him" -- say his disastrous debate performance wasn't a "one-off." There have been, according to insiders, "15, 20 occasions in the last ...Read more

Senior Democrats have concluded two things. First, Joe Biden must step aside in favor of Kamala Harris. Second, Joe Biden will not, so they will attempt to have George Stephanopoulos euthanize Joe Biden's campaign later this week.

In addition to Biden's family and closest friends insisting he stay in the race, Democrats have another problem. ...Read more
