For years, conservatives argued staunchly as defenders of two core American principles: constitutional limits on government power and the rule of law. They warned of creeping authoritarianism, condemned executive overreach, and fought to preserve the separation of powers. In the past few months, that message has disappeared. Since Inauguration Day, several violations of constitutional restraint…
The Same People Who Screamed About “Erasing History” Are Now Doing Exactly That Not long ago, the loudest voices in American politics insisted that removing Confederate statues was an unforgivable crime against history. The argument was simple: If you take down statues of Robert E. Lee or rename military bases that honored Confederate generals, you…
During his 2024 campaign, again and again, Trump promised that his tariffs would bring manufacturing jobs back to the U.S. The logic seemed straightforward: make imports more expensive, and companies would have no choice but to shift production to American factories, creating jobs and strengthening the economy. But here we are, less than two months…
Yesterday, March 11, 2025, the House of Representatives passed a continuing resolution (CR) to fund the government through September. Now, the bill moves to the Senate, where Democrats face a choice: filibuster and force a shutdown, or allow it to pass and surrender congressional power. The bill includes the usual partisan priorities—Republicans increasing defense and…
From Wealthiest Man to the Most Powerful? Elon Musk has long been more than just the world’s richest man—his companies have embedded themselves into key infrastructure across multiple industries. Now, under the Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE), his influence within the U.S. government is expanding at an unprecedented rate. Based on how he operates his…
The last time I watched a State of the Union (SOTU) address was back when George W. Bush was president. Since then, I’ve stopped tuning in, because the SOTU, no matter who is in office, has become political theater, designed more for emotional validation than substantive policy discussion. It’s a night of applause lines, choreographed…
I can’t help but imagine Ronald Reagan spinning in his grave—not just turning over, but tunneling to the White House to confront Trump himself. This is the man who stood at the Brandenburg Gate and declared, “Mr. Gorbachev, tear down this wall!” He dedicated his presidency to countering Soviet influence, championing democracy, and ensuring that…
February 28, 2025 For years, even though others have used the label, I’ve rejected calling the Trump regime fascist. Certainly, elements were present, but they were difficult to pin down—primarily rhetorical, largely targeting non-citizens, and lacking formal structure. But with the launch of the “End DEI” informant portal, we have crossed a threshold. This is…
Campaign Promises vs Economic Reality Throughout the campaign, Trump painted a picture of economic revival. He promised to bring back manufacturing, secure American jobs, and cut wasteful government spending. Since I wasn’t going to vote for him anyway, I didn’t pay much attention at first. But as the election neared, three key themes kept surfacing:…
The Deficit Is a Serious Problem—But Tax Cuts Are Making It Worse The national debt and budget deficit are serious issues. There’s no debate about that. Deficits should be managed responsibly, ensuring the country remains financially stable while still investing in what drives long-term economic growth. But the approach we’ve seen repeated for decades—cutting taxes…
